Abstract: A sealing system for at least one floatingly mounted ring in a support for a rotary shaft rotatable about an axis directed along a longitudinal direction provides dynamic sealing between the shaft and the support. The system includes a coupling part interposed between the ring and the support, whereby the ring is secured to the support. A first cylindrical type joint directed with respect to a first transverse direction provides a joint between the support and the coupling part. A second cylindrical type joint directed with respect to a second transverse direction perpendicular to the first transverse direction provides a joint between the ring and the coupling part. A turbopump includes such rotary shafts and sealing systems.

Abstract: The invention relates to the field of centrifugal pumps, and in particular it relates to a centrifugal pump (303, 403) comprising at least: an impeller (303a, 403a); a rotary shaft (302, 402) secured to said impeller (303a, 403a); a casing (320, 420) having an axial admission passage (325, 425); at least one first bearing (305, 405) supporting said rotary shaft (302, 402) in said casing (320, 420); and at least one dynamic seal (311, 411) around the rotary shaft (302, 402), the impeller (303a, 403a) being situated between the at least one dynamic seal (311, 411) and the axial admission passage (325, 425) of the pump (303, 403). The centrifugal pump (303, 403) also comprises, between the impeller (303a, 403a) and at least one dynamic seal (311, 411), an axial force compensation disk (330, 430) secured to the shaft (302, 402) and presenting a diameter greater than 70% of a diameter of the impeller (303a, 403a).
