Sealing system for bearing assembly for floor machine
11542986 · 2023-01-03 ·

The sealing system seals the bearings of a floor machine. The sealing system provides a sealing base and a sealing head. A seal is positioned between the sealing base and the sealing head to seal the bearing. The sealing base secures to the driver plate. The sealing base extends upward above the bearing. The sealing head is positioned above the sealing base. The sealing head is positioned radially inward of the sealing base at the bearing. The sealing head extends upward above the sealing base and extends outward beyond an upper portion of the sealing base to be located radially outward from the sealing base. The seal is located at an upper portion of the sealing base. The seal is located radially outward from the sealing base. The seal is located below the sealing head at a sealing aperture located between a sealing shoulder and a sealing neck.
