  • Device having a sealing grommet for leads to pass through between vehicles parts that can move in relation to one another
    Patent number: 7408115
    Abstract: A sealing grommet for leads to pass through between vehicle parts that can move in relation to one another has two fixing devices for being sealed against an opening in the respective vehicle part and an elastic sealing bellows designed between the fixing devices. A sealing grommet of this type is created such that the installation space required for the sealing grommet between the vehicle parts is minimized. To this end, a return spring (15) for the lead guided in the sealing grommet (1) is supported on one fixing device (3) and is fixed on the lead at a distance from the sealing bellows (4).
