A roller bearing apparatus provided with a roller bearing having an outer ring with a cylindrical opening that opens at one end and a cover fitted in the opening against the inner periphery thereof to close it. The cover is provided with an inscribing surface that inscribes the. inner periphery of the opening and a stepped surface that protrudes radially outward from the inscribing surface to abut the axial end face of the opening. The axial end face of the opening is provided with a beveled part on the inner rim. An annular space formed by the beveled part, inscribing surface, and stepped surface is filled with sealant.

What is claimed is: 1. A roller bearing apparatus cover that is a synthetic resin cover formed by molding, closing off the interior of a roller bearing apparatus comprising a fixed ring and a rotary ring, and having a sensor mount on which a sensor can be mounted so as to face an encoder co-rotatably attached to the rotary ring for detecting the movement of the rotary ring, wherein the cover is provided with a partition that partitions the interior of the roller bearing apparatus from the exterior; the sensor mount is provided with a seating face constituting a reference level for mounting the sensor on one of the inner and outer end faces of the partition; and ribs are provided on the one end face to form specific recesses on the one end face together with the sensor mount, the ribs having a plate form continued from the axially outer end face of the partition. 2. The roller bearing apparatus cover according to claim 1, wherein the sensor mount and the ribs are integrally formed on the one end face. 3. The roller bearing apparatus cover according to claim 1, wherein ends of the ribs are connected to the sensor mount via a nearly semi-circular rib connection part formed continuously from the axially outer end face of the partition. 4. The roller bearing apparatus cover according to claim 1, comprises: the roller bearing apparatus having the fixed ring with a cylindrical opening that opens at one end and the cover that is fitted in the opening against the inner periphery thereof to close the opening, the cover having an inscribing surface that inscribes the inner periphery of the opening and a stepped surface that protrudes radially outward from the inscribing surface to abut the axial end face of the opening, wherein a beveled part is formed on the axial end face of the opening at the inner rim, and an annular space formed by the beveled part, the inscribing surface, and the stepped surface is filled with a room temperature curing paste sealant. 5. A method of producing the roller bearing apparatus according to claim 4, in which the inscribing surface of the cover is inserted in the cylindrical opening of the outer ring of the roller bearing against the inner periphery of the opening from one axial end to the other to close the opening of the outer ring, wherein the inscribing surface of the cover is inserted in the opening against the inner periphery with the sealant being applied to the inscribing surface of the cover along the entire circumference of the inscribing surface, the sealant being applied to the inscribing surface in the form of a circumferential ridged streak such that two ends of the ridged streak overlap in the axial direction. 6. The roller bearing apparatus according to claim 4, wherein the sealant is further interposed between the inner periphery of the opening and the inscribing surface. 7. The roller bearing apparatus according to claim 4, wherein the sealant is interposed along the entire circumference of the annular space with no gap. 8. A roller bearing apparatus comprising a fixed ring and a rotary ring, and a synthetic resin cover formed by molding and having a sensor mount on which a sensor can be mounted so as to face an encoder co-rotatably attached to the rotary ring for detecting the movement of the rotary ring, wherein the cover is provided with a partition that partitions the interior of the roller bearing apparatus from the exterior; the sensor mount is provided with a seating face constituting a reference level for mounting the sensor on one of the inner and outer end faces of the partition; and ribs are provided on the one end face to form specific recesses on the one end face together with the sensor mount, the ribs having a plate form continued from the axially outer end face of the partition. 9. A roller bearing apparatus comprising: an outer ring; an inner ring member provided on an inner periphery side of the outer ring via rolling elements; an inner shaft having the inner ring member attached on the outer periphery and a flange for mounting a wheel at one axial end; a detection member provided on the inner ring or the inner shaft, which co-rotates with the wheel, for detecting the rotation; a synthetic resin cover attached to the outer ring at the other axial end; a sensor insertion opening provided through the cover in the axial direction; and a cap nut embedded in the cover with a nut end face exposed for fastening the sensor flange of a sensor to the cover on the other axial end side, wherein the nut end face of the cap nut is positioned on the other axial end side of the outer cover surface facing the sensor flange, and wherein the sensor flange is in area contact with the nut end face, but not in contact with the cover outer surface. 10. The roller bearing apparatus according to claim 9, wherein an inner flange surface of the sensor flange is in area contact with the nut end face, but not in contact with the cover outer surface.
