A cylinder head assembly for an internal combustion engine includes a cast cylinder head having at least one oil gallery, a turbocharger housing integrally cast with the cylinder head, and a turbocharger cartridge assembly configured to be inserted into the turbocharger housing and including at least one bearing rotatably supporting a shaft coupled between a compressor wheel and a turbine wheel. A lubricant passage is formed within the turbocharger housing and configured to supply oil from the at least one oil gallery to the turbocharger cartridge assembly to lubricate the at least one bearing. A seal assembly is disposed at least partially within the turbocharger housing to receive lubricant from the lubricant passage and includes a sealing end configured to seal against the turbocharger cartridge assembly.

A rubber-metal laminate that includes a metal member; and a rubber layer provided on the metal member, wherein the rubber layer has a 100%-modulus value in accordance with JIS K6251 of 8.5 MPa or more and a thickness of 80 μm or more. A gasket that includes the rubber-metal laminate.

A method, system and device for the sealing of a locomotive diesel engine cylinder head support frame's cover assembly. The method, system and device comprise a one-piece elastomeric seal having a plurality of protrusions/legs/appendices specifically constructed for sealing the top external covering of the individual power assemblies to prevent oil leakage during the operation of the diesel engine. The diesel engine's cylinder head cover seal has a combination of a dimensional profile and a material composition(s) that extends the diesel engine's cylinder head support frame cover seal's contact integrity and life.

The present disclosure relates generally to a sliding seal between two components. The sliding seal includes a seal ring including a radially extending base and an axially-extending leg disposed in a seal cavity between first and second components. A retaining ring having a first leg and a second leg defining a cavity therebetween is disposed with a portion of the base and a portion of the first component contained therein, thereby providing loading forces to help the seal ring seal against both the first and second components. One or more rope seals are carried by the seal ring in an embodiment. Other combinations of seal rings, retaining rings, and rope seals are also disclosed.

An engine is provided with a cylinder block and a ladderframe having a portion of an oil conduit and a deflector. The engine has a metal-to-metal seal positioned between the ladderframe and block to circumferentially surround the oil conduit, and has a gasket seal positioned between the ladderframe and block to be outboard and spaced apart from the oil conduit. The deflector is positioned between the metal-to-metal seal and the gasket seal. An engine component is provided with a member having a deflector and forming an oil conduit. The deflector has an arcuate deflector surface following an outer wall of the oil conduit to redirect oil escaping the oil conduit. A ladderframe is configured to provide a deflection surface, with the deflection surface positioned to guide high pressure oil away from adjacent RTV seals.

A gasket arrangement for use between an intake manifold and a cylinder head of an internal combustion engine is provided. Individual runner grooves are formed around each of the manifold runner openings. A collective runner groove is formed around all of the individual runner grooves. A relatively compressible sealing gasket material is placed in each of the runner grooves and a barrier gasket material placed in the collective runner groove. The relatively compressible sealing gasket material provides an effective seal at low engine operating temperatures. The barrier gasket material provides an effective seal against the passage of hydrocarbons. The relatively compressible sealing gasket material is preferably silicone rubber. The barrier gasket material is preferably a fluorine elastomer having a high fluorine content of preferably at least 66.0%. Accordingly, the silicone gasket provides a seal while the fluorinated polymer gasket is relatively impermeable to hydrocarbons and satisfies emission requirements.
