Abstract
An impulse ring centered on a central axis, for a sensor-bearing unit including a bearing is provided. The impulse ring includes a magnetized target that generates a magnetic fields adapted to be sensed by a sensor, and an annular target holder. The target holder provides an inner axial tubular portion adapted to be fixed to a rotatable inner ring of the bearing, an outer axial tubular portion holding the magnetized target that is positioned radially beyond an outer ring of bearing, and an intermediate portion that radially extends between the inner axial tubular portion and outer axial tubular portion. The intermediate portion provides a radial part, an inclined part and a plurality of stiffening ribs.
