Abstract

An instrumented bearing, in particular for an electric steering wheel ( 12 ), comprises an outer element ( 1 ) and an inner element ( 6 ) whereof one is mobile relative to the other which is fixed, via at least a row of rolling elements ( 14 ) arranged between the elements, and by detection ( 22, 23, 31 ) of rotational parameters of the rotating element. The bearing further comprises electronic elements ( 34 ) for processing signals emitted by the detecting elements and electronic elements ( 35 ) for controlling at least an actuator electrically connected to the device, advantageously arranged on a printed circuit plate ( 33 ) fixed in rotation.
