Abstract:
A wheel bearing apparatus includes an outer ring, an inner shaft member, rolling elements, a cage, and a sealing device. The sealing device includes an annular slinger and a sealing member. The slinger has a first inclined surface provided on a radially outer side and on a side facing the sealing member such that a diameter of the first inclined surface increases toward a first side in an axial direction. The sealing member has a second inclined surface provided on the radially outer side and on a side facing the slinger such that a diameter of the second inclined surface increases toward a second side in the axial direction. The second inclined surface intersects with a virtual extension surface extending radially outwardly along the first inclined surface, and the second inclined surface is continuous with an inner peripheral surface of the radially outer portion.

Claim (Index 3):
The wheel bearing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein an angle formed between the second inclined surface and the virtual extension surface in a section including a bearing central axis is less than 90\u00b0.
