  • Patent number: 4934716
    Abstract: A sealing ring for sealing a space between two concentric sealing surfaces engageable one inside the other comprising first and second sealing portions each having a sliding surface. The sealing portions engage each other at the sliding surfaces and upon insertion one of the sealing surfaces in the other sealing surface each and to side against each other along the sliding surfaces which are preferably provided with lubricant. In the sealing ring illustrated, one of the sealing portions has a substantially conical sliding surface and the other sealing portion is connected with the first sealing portion and from that point of connection extends along the conical sliding surface so that the second sealing portion covers substantially the whole conical sliding surface in the starting position for inserting one of the sealing surfaces into the other.

  • Patent number: 4379559
    Abstract: A sealing device for providing a fluid-tight seal when jointing different types of pipes. The sealing device comprises a sealing ring made of a resilient material are positioned in an annular groove in the outer pipe, and has a sealing portion adapted sealingly to engage an inner pipe introduced therein. A retainer ring made of a rigid or semi-rigid material cooperates with a radially inwardly extending projection of the sealing ring for retaining the sealing ring in a correct position in the groove during the introduction of the end portion of the inner pipe to a position wherein the end portion of the pipe deforms the sealing portion. The projection is positioned immediately in front of the retainer ring in the direction of introduction of the inner pipe, and the sealing portion is positioned behind the retainer ring.

  • Patent number: 4372905
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method of forming a pipe socket having a sealing ring (8) at the inner surface of the pipe socket wall. The sealing ring has a fastening portion (16) and a sealing portion (20) connected therewith. The sealing portion (20) is displaceable in the axial direction of the pipe socket to be able to take different positions therein in order to adapt to different tolerances. It is a problem that the sealing portion (20) because of its displacability is not adapted to constitute such a surface around which the pipe wall can be formed. In order to obviate this drawback the pipe wall is formed so that the sealing portion (20) is positioned outside the pipe socket during the forming operation, whereupon the sealing portion is folded into the pipe socket after the forming operation.

  • Patent number: 4288104
    Abstract: The invention relates to a pipe section of the type which is manufactured by means of molding and which is provided with sealing surfaces for sealingly connecting the pipe with another pipe section. An annular sealing ring is connected to the pipe near one end thereof having an inwardly projecting portion and a further portion located axially inward of the first mentioned portion relative to the end of the pipe. The sealing ring has an inwardly facing pocket and a protector for the surfaces thereof comprising an annular element in contact with the pipe which is easily removable from the pipe at the place where the pipe is to be used. The pipe is molded against the annular element during manufacturing thereof.

  • Patent number: 4191384
    Abstract: A method for providing a seal between two pipes of the type in which one circumferential end portion of one pipe has an enlargement to provide an internal circumferential channel into which the unenlarged end of the other pipe can be telescoped, the space between the interior of this channel and the exterior of the inner pipe end containing an annular seal ring of the type having a K cross-section in which the oblique arms of the K constitute sealing lips facing radially and obliquely inwardly of the channel, one canted axially inwardly and the other canted axially outwardly of the channel.

  • Patent number: 4182376
    Abstract: A dispensing device for dispensing a liquid flowing through a substantially vertical tube, particularly for dispensing rain water flowing through a drainpipe wherein a sleeve has a circumferential resiliently deformable wall portion which is adjustable into two different positions, namely a first position in which the inner surface of the wall portion, possibly together with the end portion of the pipe, provides the collecting pocket, and a second position in which the inner surface is substantially conical for not collecting and discharging any liquid letting the liquid pass through the sleeve.

  • Patent number: 4153259
    Abstract: A seal device is provided for sealing the annular space between a machine element and a rotating shaft. The seal comprises a annular chamber in a housing which opens inwardly toward the shaft. An annular seal element of elastomeric material engages the walls of the chamber and a sleeve mounted on the shaft. Means are provided to supply fluid to the space between the seal element and sleeve to selectively more the same out of contact.
