Abstract: A housing part has a sealing surface around the housing part which is to be fastened by means of a seal to another housing part in a sealing manner. At least one fastening opening is provided for the guiding through of fastening elements, in order to seal the housing part on another housing part. At the at least one fastening opening, a ring-shaped projection is arranged which projects over the sealing surface and defines a minimum distance between the sealing surface of the housing part and sealing surface on the other housing part.

Abstract: The invention relates to a sealing element at least comprising a housing area, at least one dynamically active sealing area and at least one statically active sealing area which at least partially interacts with the housing area. The invention is characterized in that the static sealing area is at least partially laminated with a hardenable material containing a predetermined number of friction-reducing elements.

Abstract: A lid component part of an internal combustion engine with integrated elastic seal, such as, for example, is provided to a cylinder head gasket or oil pan and a process for its manufacture. The component part exhibits a circumferential flange area for the arranging of the integrated seal. The component part is based on a plastic-material, while the seal essentially comprises an organic elastomer material. The component part and the seal are chemically bonded with one another. The seal is applied by injection molding onto the component part.

Abstract: The invention relates to a housing sealing cover (1, 10, 15, 18) for detachable liquid-tight fixing to an internal combustion engine, comprising an add-on piece (24) which is firmly connected to the housing, extending through the cover when in a mounted position. Said cover consists of a metallic or polymer support element (2) made of a single layer and is provided with an opening (25) for the add-on piece (24), wherein a seal (23) is arranged in said opening. Said seal comprises a sealing lip(3, 11) extending axially on the edge (26) of the opening (25) and a sealing lip (5, 12, 16, 19) extending radially in relation to the seal of the add-on piece (24). The radially extending sealing lip (5, 12, 16, 19) is retained in the opening (25) in an angularly and radially displaceable manner with respect to the support element (2).

Abstract: The invention relates to a frame member seal comprising at least two fixing devices, which are configured from plastic or elastomer and are designed to project in corresponding orifices in front of at least one component that is to be sealed.

Abstract: A cover for a cylinder head of an internal combustion engine having a connecting element for attachment the cylinder head and a sealing element arranged between the cylinder head cover and the cylinder head. The connecting element is associated with a connecting area, and the sealing element is associated with a sealing area. The connecting area and the sealing area are constructed independently of each other and are spatially separated from each other, and the force vectors of the connecting force transmitted by the connecting element and the sealing force transmitted by the sealing element form an angle with each other.

Abstract: Process for the creation of a seal on a component, in which on one surface of the component which may be pre-treated, a sealant material is applied using screen printing, and by means of a tool at a specific temperature, the geometry of the finished seal is imprinted into the sealant material.

Abstract: A rocker cover assembly for a cylinder head of an internal combustion engine includes a rock cover, a gasket element and a stabilizing core. The gasket element is disposed between the rocker cover and the cylinder head, and includes a sealing material. The stabilizing core is inserted in the gasket element and surrounded at least essentially completely by the sealing material of the gasket element. The stabilizing core is isolated from the rocker cover such that the sealing material of the gasket element is arranged between the stabilizing core and the rocker cover.

Abstract: A plastic component, usable in a combustion engine, is made by forming an elastomeric seal onto at least one support element. The support element, complete with the seal, is placed in a cavity or fixture of a plastic injection mold, and the plastic component is created only by forming plastic material onto the support element. The finished plastic component with the molded-on seal is removed from the cavity.

Abstract: A sealing element, especially a flat seal, consisting of a metal-supported elastomer material, containing sealing profiles that are offset form one another, between which, at given intervals, elements that provide acoustic de-coupling, also made of elastomer material, are located.

Abstract: A sealing system for a shaft, in particular for a combustion engine, with a motor casing cover having a clearance hole for take-up of a carrier is shown having at least one dynamically and at least one statically effective sealing area and is equipped with a centering area that allows centering relative to the clearance hole, when the carrier is securely connected to the motor casing cover by means of a quarter-turn fastener. The centering area is arranged on the level of the quarter-turn fastener in such a way that the dynamic sealing area is aligned with a shaft and the static sealing area with given pressure can be used in a corresponding section of the motor casing cover.

Abstract: A seal, especially for shafts movable in a translational direction, has at least one static sealing area and at least one dynamic sealing area and another sealing point outside of the dynamic sealing area. The other sealing point is formed by at least two elements functionally connected to each other, one of which at least one is stationary and at least one other is movable, following a shaft stroke.

Abstract: Process for production of a metal reinforced sealing element, in which a metal carrier element is provided with several cutouts, the remaining material is subjected to a pressure forming process, with material deformation in the cutouts, to create a selectable contour of the carrier element, and subsequently a sealing profile is introduced in the formed contour.
