ABSTRACT:
A bearing assembly of a wheel hub for a motor vehicle wheel having an outer bearing ring adapted to be affixed with a vehicle chassis and an inner bearing ring having the wheel mounted thereon. A constant velocity joint is connected to the inner bearing ring for driving the wheel hub, the rotary joint including first and second joint members. The first joint member has three radially extending pins which are arranged uniformly spaced in the circumferential direction in a star-like configuration and are secured to the inner bearing ring. The second joint member is connected to a drive shaft and has three rolling tracks formed therein. The assembly further includes three annular rolling bodies having spherically shaped outer surfaces, each rolling body being separately supported on one of the pins and being received in the rolling tracks of the second joint member for the transmission of torque, the first bearing ring defining a bore for receiving the inner joint member.
