Wheel bearing equipped with a sealing device with gutter and chicane

A wheel bearing comprising:

• at least one outer ring;
• and
• at least one inner ring, which are guided relative to one another about an axis of rotation of the wheel bearing, the wheel bearing further comprising:
• a sealing device, the sealing device comprising at least one outer structure attached to the outer ring and an inner structure attached to the inner ring, the outer structure and the inner structure together delimiting a chicane passage having an inlet, the outer structure having a shrink-fitting portion shrink-fitted onto the outer ring, the inner structure having a shrink-fitting portion shrink-fitted onto a shrink-fit surface of the inner ring, the outer structure forming an annular gutter open radially outwards, the inlet of the chicane passage and the shrink-fitting portion of the outer structure being situated axially on either side of the gutter, the chicane passage and the gutter being situated on a same first side of a reference plane of the outer ring, perpendicular to the axis of revolution and tangent to an end wall of the outer ring, the shrink-fitting portion of the outer structure and the outer ring being situated on a second side of the reference plane of the outer ring, opposite the first side, the gutter having a bottom and side walls situated axially on either side of the bottom, the side walls being further away from the axis of revolution than the bottom, wherein the inner structure comprises a flat annular flange projecting radially from the shrink-fitting portion of the inner structure towards the outer ring, positioned axially opposite and at a distance from one of the side walls of the gutter such that the flat annular flange and the one side wall radially overlap.
