Abstract

The present invention provides an instrumented rolling bearing device having an outer ring, an inner ring, at least one row of rolling bodies arranged between two raceways of the outer and inner rings, and an assembly for detecting rotation parameters, this assembly having a non-rotating sensor unit and a rotating encoder member. The device allows for angularly immobilizing a non-rotating part of the device on a support while at the same time allowing relative axial movement of the device with respect to the support.
