The present invention includes a helicopter rotor seal assembly comprising: a rotor mast having a longitudinal axis and an outer surface; a sleeve aligned longitudinally with the axis and surrounding a portion of the rotor mast, the sleeve having an outer surface, and an inner surface; an annular horizontal seal between the inner surface of the sleeve and the outer surface of the rotor mast; and an upper annular rotor mast seal affixed to the outer surface of the rotor mast and extending outwardly sufficient to cover the annular horizontal seal.

A sealing device for a drive shaft is disclosed and described. The sealing device for a drive shaft comprises a housing disposed to surround the drive shaft between the inner space and the outer space, a plurality of sealing members axially separated from each other between the housing and the drive shaft to seal between the housing and the drive shaft, fixing ring members interposed between the plurality of sealing members to maintain the separation distance between the sealing members, and a fixing member secured to the housing to apply an axial pressure to the plurality of sealing members and fixing ring members, wherein a concave-convex section is formed on at least one of the close surfaces of the fixing ring member and the sealing member, which face each other.

A seal assembly for sealing an annular space between a first cylindrical surface and a second cylindrical surface. The annular space has high pressure zones and low pressure zones. The seal assembly has an annular seal with an inner surface that faces the second cylindrical component, an outer surface that faces the first cylindrical component, a sealing end and an engagement end. A seal actuator assembly applies a force to the engagement end of the annular seal to urge the annular seal in a first direction towards an engaged position within the annular space. The force applied to the engagement end of the annular seal has a first component aligned with the first direction and a second component that is perpendicular to the first direction. The first component is at least 1.7 times greater than the second component.

A downhole tool body includes an outer surface having at least one O-ring gland. The at least one O-ring gland includes a first contour having a first radius greater than about 0.035 (R0.89 mm) and a second contour having a second radius greater than about 0.035 (R0.89 mm). A backup ring is arranged in the O-ring gland. The backup ring includes a gland contour having a radius that is complimentary to the first radius.

An adsorption device for compressed gas, is provided with a vessel with an inlet for the supply of a compressed gas to be treated, and an outlet for treated gas and an adsorption element is affixed in the vessel. The adsorption element extends along the flow direction of the compressed gas to be treated, between the inlet and the outlet. The adsorption element has a monolithic supporting structure that is at least partially provided with a coating that contains an adsorbent.

Disclosed is a mechanical seal with an outer forwardly-inclined rim for liquids, including a moving ring and a stationary ring; end portions of the moving ring and the stationary ring are seal end faces in mutual friction and perpendicular to the axis, for preventing the liquid at one side of the seal end faces from leaking to the other side; one of the moving ring and the stationary ring is provided with a rim at one side in contact with liquid, and the rim is protruding in its radial direction and inclined toward the other ring, so that when a transmission device runs, liquid turbulence occurs to an inclined surface of the rim, and the generated centrifugal force makes particles or impurities in the liquid distant from the seal end faces, so as to effectively prevent particles or impurities in the liquid from entering the seal end faces.

A bearing sealing device including a slinger member having a slinger cylindrical portion, a slinger flange portion, and a slinger outer diametrical cylindrical portion projecting from an outer diametrical side end portion of the slinger flange portion so as to overlap in diametrical direction with a step portion of the flange, and including a seal member having a seal member having a core member and a seal lip member. A seal outer diametrical cylindrical portion having a region facing an outer circumferential face of the slinger outer diametrical cylindrical portion and projecting so as to overlap in diametrical direction with the step portion is provided on an outer diametrical side end portion of the seal member. A projecting distal end portion of the seal outer diametrical cylindrical portion projects toward a side of the step portion further than a projecting distal end portion of the slinger outer diametrical cylindrical portion.

A pump leakage mitigation device includes one or more clamp arms on an outer surface of a pump that can be driven by a biasing element to seat against a shaft of the pump to seal or reduce fluid flow through a breakdown of the pump. The biasing element engages only at threshold temperatures, such as those associated with breakdown orifice failure when additional sealing may be necessary. Clamp arms of any number and shape can be used to achieve the desired seal and based on the pump geometry. A sealant surface and/or keeping mechanism are useable with the leakage mitigation device to enhance fluid flow blockage throughout a pump failure transient scenario. Pump leakage mitigation devices are installed on an outside of a variety of different pump types and can thus be installed, actuated, manipulated, disengaged, and/or removed without having to destroy or disassemble the pump.

An improved face seal may comprise a seal housing having an annular extrusion, and a primary seal coupled to the seal housing. The primary seal comprises a sealing face and a base opposite the sealing face, wherein the primary seal has an annular structure coaxial with the annular extrusion with the base proximate a first end of the seal housing. The sealing face comprises a disrupted surface.
