Abstract

See full text

A sensorized supporting device for bearings (1) comprises: • a bearing housing (2), configured for being secured to a mounting structure and defining at least one seat (2c) for a bearing (3); and • a sensorized supporting base (4), having a supporting body (4′) prearranged for being at least partially positioned between the mounting structure (S) and the bearing housing (2). The supporting body (4′) has a detection surface (4c) which extends in a longitudinal direction (L) and a transverse direction (W) and is configured for resting, directly or via interposition of at least one further element, on a corresponding surface of one of the bearing housing (2) and the mounting structure, the supporting base (4) being provided with a mechanical-stress sensor. The mechanical-stress sensor comprises at least one piezoelectric transducer (101, 102, 20) defining at least part of the detection surface (4c), the at least one piezoelectric transducer (10; 20; 101, 102) being configured for generating an electrical potential difference that is substantially proportional to the magnitude of a mechanical stress (SS) applied to the bearing housing (2).
