Abstract: Systems and methods include providing an aircraft with a fuselage and a wing assembly rotatable relative to the fuselage about a stow axis between a flight position and a stowed position. The aircraft includes an engine reduction gearbox having a retractable driveshaft that selectively engages the mid-wing gearbox via axially translatable motion along a rotation axis when the wing assembly is in the flight position. The mid-wing gearbox includes a plunger seal that is displaced in response to contact with the retractable driveshaft. Displacement of the plunger seal allows lubricant to flow through an inner bore in the retractable driveshaft, across splines of the retractable driveshaft and the mid-wing gearbox, and through lubrication ports in the mid-wing gearbox to lubricate the engine reduction gearbox, splines of the retractable driveshaft and the mid-wing gearbox, and the mid-wing gearbox via a single lubrication system.

Abstract: [Problem] To provide a sealing device having high pressure resistance and durability for a reciprocating shaft. [Solution] A sealing device comprising an oil seal member and a dust seal member. The oil seal member and the dust seal member each comprise a rigid ring provided inside a shaft hole and an elastic ring attached to the rigid ring, wherein the elastic ring has formed thereon a lip that slidably contacts a reciprocating shaft. The rigid ring of the dust seal member is detachably fitted in the rigid ring of the oil seal member. The sealing device further comprises another rigid ring provided between the elastic ring of the oil seal member and the elastic ring of the dust seal member in a direction parallel to the axial direction of the reciprocating shaft. This rigid ring is detachably fitted in a concave portion formed radially inward of the rigid ring of the dust seal member and reinforces the elastic ring of the dust seal member.

Abstract: A seal assembly for sealing a space between a housing and a component against a liquid medium includes a seal element fixedly connectable to the housing, the seal element including a seal lip that is movable at least in a radial direction, the seal lip being disposed at an angle with respect to the radial direction and a support element in abutment with the seal lip. The support element and the seal element are configured such that a pressure exerted on the seal lip by the liquid medium is transmittable in the radial direction to the support element, and the seal assembly also includes a further seal assembly on a side of the support element axially opposite the seal element, the further seal assembly including a first seal having a first seal body and a second seal having a second seal body.

Abstract: The arrangement comprises a seal (500) sealing a cylindrical rotating part (100) passing through an opening in a support structure in the vessel (10) against a medium (W). The seal (500) comprises a package of annular seal rings (510, 520, 530). Each seal ring (510, 520, 530) comprises a seal part (512, 522, 532) being supported in a corresponding seal support part (511, 521, 531). The seal support part (511) in the first seal ring (510) positioned closest to the medium (W) has the form of a cylinder (511A) provided with an annular flange (511B) at one end of the cylinder (511A). The outer surface of the cylinder (511A) is supported and sealed with an auxiliary seal (610) against the inner circumference of the opening. The annular flange (511B) is supported against the support structure (83) surrounding the opening.

Abstract: A seal device for sealing in a liquid medium includes a first seal assembly disposed on a primary side facing the medium and configured to seal a stationary component with respect to a rotatable component, a second seal assembly disposed on a secondary side facing away from the medium and configured to seal the stationary component with respect to the rotatable component, and a sensor connected to a volume located between the first seal assembly and the second seal assembly and configured to detect a change of a moisture level in the volume. The stationary component further includes a bore located axially between a contact surface for the first seal assembly and a contact surface for the second seal assembly, and the volume is connected to a pressure tank by the bore.

Abstract: A sealing structure for a continuously variable transmission, which seals a clearance between a movable sheave and a cylinder. The continuously variable transmission may change a groove width of each pulley of the cylinder by moving a corresponding movable sheave though supply and discharge of a hydraulic pressure to and from the cylinder. The sealing structure includes an outer peripheral side seal member that is ring-shaped and disposed in a ring-shaped groove formed in one of the movable sheave and the cylinder; and an inner peripheral side seal member that is more elastic than the outer peripheral side seal member, ring-shaped, and disposed in a layered manner in the ring-shaped groove on an inner peripheral side with respect to the outer peripheral side seal member. A side of the outer peripheral side seal member where it contacts the inner peripheral side seal member is chamfered.

Abstract: A seal for use in a surgical instrument to provide a gas-tight seal with an instrument passed through the seal. The seal can form a gas-tight seal with an instrument having a diameter within a wide range of diameters. The seal comprises a seal body, an instrument seal, and a laterally-compliant seal mounting device. The seal body includes a bore through which the instrument is passed. The instrument seal is made of an elastic material and is disposed substantially perpendicular to the axis defined by the bore in the seal body. The instrument seal includes an instrument port through which the instrument is passed. The laterally-compliant seal mounting device mounts the instrument seal to the seal body, forms a gas-tight seal between the instrument seal and the seal body, and allows the instrument seal to move freely laterally in response to lateral movement of the instrument.
