  • Patent number: 12098770
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a seal, such as a gasket, for sealing a gap in a housing, said gap extending around an inner chamber of the housing, and thus for sealing the inner chamber from an exterior of the housing, comprising at least one sealing layer. The present disclosure further relates to a frame seal that provides sealing between at least two components of the housing, for example a bottom part and a top part of the housing, for example of a motor vehicle battery housing or motor vehicle battery box housing.

  • Patent number: 11885278
    Abstract: A cylinder head gasket is disclosed having a carrier layer, in which at least one through-opening for a combustion chamber is located, and a combustion chamber sealing element, which is inserted in the through-opening and extends in an intrinsically closed manner. In some examples, at least one gap is formed at least in some sections between the carrier layer and the combustion chamber sealing element, the gap extending around the combustion chamber sealing element at least in some sections. Further, in some example, the carrier layer has at least one slot-like or groove-like channel, which extends from the at least one gap between the carrier layer and the combustion chamber sealing element to the outer edge of the carrier layer.

  • Patent number: 11512664
    Abstract: A cylinder head gasket with a carrier layer and at least one inserted sealing element, wherein the inserted sealing element has a passage opening for combustion gas, the inserted sealing element is fastened on the carrier layer on an outer side which is spaced apart from the passage opening, and the inserted sealing element has at least a first layer and at least one further layer. An engine component comprising the cylinder head gasket is disclosed, the engine component having an engine block unit, a cylinder sleeve unit which delimits the engine block unit at least in regions from a combustion chamber, and a cylinder head unit, wherein the cylinder head gasket is arranged between the cylinder head unit on one hand and the engine block unit and the cylinder sleeve unit on the other hand.

  • Publication number: 20190162307
    Abstract: A flat gasket, as used for example as a cylinder head gasket in internal combustion engines may have a first layer and at least one through-opening which extends through all the layers of the flat gasket. The first layer may have a filling channel which extends in the layer plane to the through-opening in the first layer. A circumferential edge of the through-opening in the first layer may have a moulded-on seal which contains or is made of an elastomer and which runs around the through-opening and extends into the filling channel. In the uncompressed state of the flat gasket, the elastomeric filling of the filling channel may have in a region of the filling channel adjacent to the circumferential edge of the through-opening in the first layer, a region that is thickened perpendicular to the layer plane of the first layer.

  • Patent number: 9921005
    Abstract: A heat exchanger has a heat exchanging element with a first terminal plate closing the heat exchanging element on one of its sides and with at least one opening provided with a socket for fluids for the heat exchanger element. At least a first gasket carrier plate has a first lateral face arranged adjacent to the first terminal plate and an opposite second lateral face. The first gasket carrier plate has at least one passage opening leading from the first to the second lateral face for taking up at least one socket of the first terminal plate. A first sealing element is provided between the first terminal plate and the first gasket carrier plate. A second sealing element is provided adjacent to the second lateral face. The at least one socket of the first terminal plate is bulged outwardly to adjoin to the second sealing element at least in sections.
