WHEEL HUB ASSEMBLY PROVIDED WITH AN INNOVATIVE SENSOR HOLDER

A wheel hub assembly for motor vehicles, having a rotating hub and a bearing unit. The bearing unit including a radially outer ring provided with respective radially outer raceways, a radially inner ring provided with respective radially inner raceways, a plurality of rolling bodies positioned between the corresponding inner and outer raceways, a sensor for detecting the speed of rotation and the associated sensor holder. A cavity is formed in the radially outer ring of the bearing unit and a protuberance is formed on the outer mounting diameter of the sensor holder, the protuberance being able to be inserted inside the cavity to perform an anti-rotation retention function and ensure the mechanical orientation of the sensor holder.
