ABSTRACT:
A bearing arrangement for a vehicle wheel, particularly of an automobile, has an outer component provided with a bore and an inner axle component journalled in the bore and supported therein by means of a bearing. One of the components is connected to a wheel for the vehicle and the other component is connected to wheel guiding elements articulated on the vehicle body. The exterior surfaces of the components in the vicinity of the bore define a gap between them extending in toward the bearing. A bearing-protecting packing arrangement at the entrance of the gap includes an annular groove, concentric with the bore, defined on the surface on the outer component in the vicinity of the bore and leading widthwise in toward the bore and a complementary annular ring fixed on the surface of the axle component in the vicinity of the bore. The annular ring cooperates with and projects into the groove so as to substantially prevent foreign elements from entering the gap and contaminating the bearing in the bore.
