The components float on the compressed seal to allow some flexibility between the components while maintaining a water tight seal. | 09-19-2013 |
20130256996 | SHIPLAP PLATE SEAL - A seal plate assembly for a turbine rotor includes at least one inner shiplap seal plate disposed on the rotor; and at least one outer seal plate adapted to engage the at least one inner shiplap plate. The thickness of the at least one outer seal plate is different than the thickness of the at least one inner shiplap plate causing either the at least one inner shiplap plate or the at least one outer seal plate to come into contact first under centrifugal load. | 10-03-2013 |
20130285335 | METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR SEALING AUTOMOTIVE COMPONENT PASS-THROUGHS - A sealing apparatus is provided for sealing an automotive component extending between an engine compartment and a passenger compartment of an automobile. The sealing apparatus includes a pass-through mount component configured to house the automotive component. An outer seal component is configured to rigidly mount to a wall structure separating the passenger compartment from the engine compartment and to elastically contact a platform region of one end of the pass-through mount structure. An inner seal component is configured to elastically couple to the outer seal component within the passenger compartment and to elastically couple to one end of the pass-through mount component. | 10-31-2013 |
20130307228 | Low Load Seal With Outer Diameter Flap - A seal for insertion in a bore in an outer member and engaging an inner member received in the bore. The seal includes an annular insert having an elastomeric body over-molded on the annular insert and an inner seal extending radially inward from the annular insert. The inner seal including an inboard sealing surface and the elastomeric body over-molded on the annular insert defining an outer portion including an outboard sealing surface including an annular flap on an exterior side of the annular insert that, in an installed position, is adapted to be compressed between the outer annular insert and the outer member. | 11-21-2013 |
20140145405 | SPARK PLUG - Provided is a technique which realizes securement of gas-tightness and suppression of loosening of a gasket. A spark plug includes a tubular metallic shell extending in an axial direction, and an annular gasket provided around the metallic shell. The gasket is solid and contains copper as a main component and nickel in an amount of 0.1 wt. % or more. The gasket has a maximum thickness of 0.4 mm or more in the axial direction, and the gasket has a Vickers hardness of 30 HV to 150 HV. | 05-29-2014 |
20140191477 | HYDROGENATED NITRILE RUBBER COMPOSITION - Disclosed is a hydrogenated nitrile rubber composition comprising 100 parts by weight of hydrogenated nitrile rubber having a bound acrylonitrile content of 31 to 50% and an iodine value of 30 mg/100 mg or less, 30 to 300 parts by weight of carbon black having a particle size of 61 nm or more and/or other filler, 0.5 to 30 parts by weight of a polyfunctional unsaturated compound cocrosslinking agent, and 1 to 10 parts by weight of an organic peroxide. The hydrogenated nitrile rubber composition has excellent roll processability and can be suitably used as a vulcanization-molding material for a cup gasket or bellows having excellent LLC resistance used in a water pump mechanical seal. | 07-10-2014 |
20140361499 | SHAPE MEMORY ALLOY INTERSEGMENT SEALS - A high-temperature seal for use in sealing gaps between adjacent turbine components includes a seal body constructed of a shape-memory alloy having inoperative size and shape that, in use, expands to an operative size and shape where it is in sealing engagement with the adjacent turbine component upon reaching a predetermined transition temperature. Upon subsequent cooling to a temperature below the predetermined temperature, the seal body reverts to the first inoperative shape or to another inoperative size and shape. | 12-11-2014 |
20140367926 | Foam Gasket and Bonding Tape Based On Polyurethane Dispersions - A polymer sheet includes a polyurethane core. The polyurethane core has a first major surface and a second major surface opposite the first major surface. The polymer sheet can have at least one functional layer overlying a major surface. The polymer sheet has a thickness t | 12-18-2014 |
20140367927 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR SEALING A DOCK LEVELER ASSEMBLY - A sealing device for use in sealing a gap formed by the interface between the floor, the dock leveler assembly, and a parked vehicle cargo frame includes a base portion having a bottom surface, an inner vertical surface, and a rear vertical surface. The bottom surface is adapted for sealing engagement with a loading dock floor. The sealing device further includes a first brush portion secured to the rear vertical surface of the base portion. The first brush portion includes a plurality of bristles and is adapted for sealing engagement with a vehicle cargo frame. The sealing device further includes a second brush portion secured to the inner vertical surface of the base portion. The second brush portion includes a plurality of bristles and is adapted for sealing engagement with an underside of the lip of a dock leveler assembly when the lip is in an extended position. | 12-18-2014 |
20160032750 | STATIONARY NON-ROTATING BRUSH SEALS - The present disclosure relates to an aircraft brush seal comprising a first brush seal member and a second brush seal member comprising a channel that receives a plurality of interwoven brush fibers. The interwoven brush fibers may be coupled to the first brush seal member and/or may extend into the second brush seal member. The interwoven brush fibers may not couple to the second brush seal member and/or may form an air seal.
