  • Publication number: 20150308280
    Abstract: The main object of the invention is an assembly forming a seal (1) for a turbomachine (10), used to provide a seal between two elements of the turbomachine (10) rotating relative to one another, and being rotationally symmetrical around an axis (X) of the assembly forming a seal (1), characterised in that it includes a brush seal (2), which is annular around the axis (X) of the assembly forming a seal (1), having multiple elastic sealing bristles (5, 5a, 5b) intended to be attached to one of the two elements of the turbomachine (10) rotating relative to one another, and at least one lip (3, 3a, 3b, 3c), which is annular around the axis (X) of the assembly forming a seal (1), extending radially in the direction of the brush seal (2), intended to be attached to the other of the two elements of the turbomachine (10) rotating relative to one another, where the said at least one lip (3, 3a, 3b, 3c) penetrates at least partially into the brush seal (2).
