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: 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 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: 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.

Abstract: A casing cover (1, 10, 20) for an internal-combustion engine, particularly valve covers or oil pans, for being mounted detachably and fluid-tight to the engine block (5, 13, 21), having a peripheral edge that is profiled to receive an elastomer seal (3, 12) at the edge (2, 11) of the casing cover (1, 10, 20). The cover is provided with an axial extension (7, 14) that is oriented in the direction of the engine block (5, 13, 21) and is disposed at an inner portion of the edge (2, 11) of the casing cover (1, 10, 20). The extension is positioned to project axially beyond the sealing surface (4, 15), an engine block wherein the casing cover is inserted so the casing cover is at least positioned correctly on the engine block.

Abstract: A casing cover (1, 10, 22) for an internal-combustion engine, particularly valve covers or oil pans, to be mounted detachably and fluid-tight to an engine block (5, 13, 23), having an elastomer seal profile (3, 12, 28) disposed at the peripheral edge (2, 11) of the casing cover (1, 10, 22), and an inside (6, 17), axial extension (7, 14, 26) oriented in the direction of the engine block (5, 13, 23) disposed at the edge (2, 11) of the casing cover (1, 10, 22). The extension projects axially beyond the sealing surface (4, 15) of the engine block when the cover is installed, and a seal (20, 29) is disposed at least between the axial extension (7, 14, 26) and the engine block (5, 13, 23).

Abstract: In a fastener comprising a screw with a shaft having a thread portion at one end and a head at the other end and an axially extending sleeve structure provided with an internal thread at its end adjacent the screw head in which the screw is captured wherein the screw shaft has a reduced diameter area between the screw head and the screw thread, which is disposed within the sleeve thread area after the screw has been threaded through the sleeve thread, the adjacent end areas of the sleeve thread and the screw thread are made inoperative by cold deformation so that the screw is captured in the sleeve structure.
