Abstract
A device including a sealing assembly having a first annular shield constrainable to a rotating first member, a second annular shield facing the first shield and constrainable to a stationary second member, and an annular seal supported by the first shield and provided with annular lips cooperating with the second shield. The device has a signal generator device having a third shield constrainable to the first member and an annular signal generator element arranged facing the first and the second shields; wherein the first shield has a flange portion, having on a side of the first shield, a first and a second L-fold in opposite directions which delimit a first annular surface facing the annular lips and the second shield; wherein the annular signal generator element is delimited towards the second shield by a second annular surface facing the annular lips forming an obtuse angle with the first annular surface.
