Abstract

See full text

A wheel bearing device includes a hub wheel and a wheel bearing press-fitted onto the hub wheel. A clearance is formed between at least one inner race and the hub wheel such that the at least one inner race is out of contact with the hub wheel at a position where an action line intersects with the hub wheel, the action line being a contact angle of the balls on the outboard side with the at least one inner race. A large-diameter side radially inner surface of the at least one inner race is formed as a curved surface opposed to the inner rolling surface of the at least one inner race. An axial dimension La of a corner portion of the hub wheel is 1.5 times or more as large as a radial dimension Lr thereof.
