  • Patent number: 9388921
    Abstract: A plug-in piece 1 for sealing connection of two mutually assigned cylindrical surfaces includes an essentially tubular support body 2, which on its ends exhibits annularly encircling sealing elements, which can be made to engage to produce a sealing connection with the cylindrical surfaces to be sealed, wherein at least one of the sealing elements is configured as an annularly encircling sealing bead 3, 30 on the outer surface of the support body 2, with a spherically curved sealing surface. Provision is made that the spherical radius of the sealing surface (3, 30) is chosen so that the center of the sphere is roughly at the axis of support body (2) symmetry. Thus, the compression forces are ensured to remain largely constant, independent of the angular setting over the entire surface of the sealing bead.

  • Publication number: 20150152754
    Abstract: A seal including a sealing ring (1) made from an elastomeric material, an intermediate ring (2) made from a polymeric material, and a supporting ring (3), the sealing ring (1), the intermediate ring (2) and the supporting ring (3) being arranged concentrically with respect to one another, and the sealing ring (1) and the supporting ring (3) being arranged in each case on the sides of the intermediate ring (2) which face away axially from one another. The sealing ring (1), the intermediate ring (2), and the supporting ring (3) form a pre-assembled unit (4).

  • Publication number: 20140197599
    Abstract: A sealing arrangement includes a double seal for sealing two chambers which are to be sealed off from one another and are each filled with a medium to be sealed. The double seal includes a first sealing ring disposed on a first side of the double seal and a second sealing ring disposed on a second side of the double seal. Each of the sealing rings has at least one dynamically stressed sealing lip contacting a surface to be sealed of a first machine element in a sealing manner. The sealing lips are arranged such that there is an axial distance between the sealing lips of the first and second sealing rings that are axially closest to one another. The first machine element is movable backwards and forwards in a translatory manner with a stroke. The axial distance is greater than the stroke.
