Abstract: A sealing element for sealing a shaft comprises a stiffening part, a first elastomer part connected to the stiffening part and adapted to adjoin the housing part and provide a static seal relative, and a second elastomer part of an elastomer material different from the elastomer material forming the first elastomer part. The second elastomer part is connected to the stiffening part and comprises a sealing section adapted to adjoin the shaft to seal a space. The sealing section comprises a return structure for returning a leaking fluid to a space to be sealed. The sealing section also comprises a region at one axial end portion of the sealing section which is peripherally closed in itself and extends along an inner surface of a circular cylinder portion of the sealing section that is adapted to adjoin and seal the shaft as the shaft is not turning.

Abstract: A valve stem seal for an internal combustion engine includes a seal body having a gas seal assembly spaced from an oil seal assembly in the axial direction of the valve stem seal. The gas seal assembly includes a first gas lip and a second gas lip disposed between the oil seal assembly and the first gas lip.

Abstract: A sealing element for sealing a shaft, which is provided for rotating in accordance with its design, at a through-opening of a housing part for the shaft, comprising the following features: a reinforcement part (2) and an elastomeric part (5) connected with the reinforcement part, the elastomeric part (5) comprises a first sealing region (10) for a static-sealing abutment on the housing part and the elastomeric part comprises a second sealing region (20) having a sealing segment (22) formed and provided for sealing abutment on the shaft, which sealing segment comprises a thread-like return structure for a return of a leaked fluid into a to-be-sealed space, and a free axial end in the sealing segment normally abutting on the shaft is formed with a closed line (26) in the circumferential direction and extending on a circular-cylinder surface, which line is provided for sealing abutment on the shaft at least when the shaft is not rotating.

Abstract: A seal such as a valve shaft seal for use with machine parts that reciprocate relative to each other includes an elastomer sealing lip adapted to rest with a radial spring preload on one machine part and a sleeve-shaped holder carrying the sealing lip and projecting axially beyond the sealing lip for serving to simultaneously attach the seal to a second machine part. To provide a seal with a relatively uncomplicated and inexpensive holder that ensures a safe and flawless attachment and centering, the portion of the holder projecting axially beyond the sealing lip is provided with at least one projection that is directed essentially at an angle towards the inside for engaging a recess in the outer surface of the second machine part.

Abstract: A piston rod seal includes a sealing disk provided with a reinforcement element, a guide mechanism, and a support piece which are adapted to be placed consecutively in a metal pipe or similar object functioning as a housing, and which are adapted to surround a piston rod when installed. To create a seal having relatively few components and a relatively small axial dimension, the reinforcement element is connected to the sealing disk and is constructed to function as a guide element for guiding the axial movement of the piston rod.

Abstract: A seal for being mounted on a reciprocating machine part to seal the machine part includes a sealing element made of elastomer material. The sealing element has a sealing lip defined by two surfaces that intersect at a sealing edge for resting in a sealing manner against the outer surface of the machine part. One of the two surfaces includes a first section and a second section. The first section is inclined at a first angle of inclination with respect to the central axis of the sealing element while the second section is inclined at a second angle of inclination with respect to the central axis of the sealing element, and with the first and second angles of inclination being different from one another.
