A device for sealing a space at a juncture between elements of a nacelle, the device being non-flammable by heat, having a predetermined shape, and having a proximal end configured to be inserted into the space to be sealed so as to seal it, and a distal end configured to be fastened to an element of the nacelle at a fire area.

A mechanical joint according to which a gasket includes wipers, or protrusions, on an internal surface of the gasket, on an external surface of the gasket, or on both internal and external surfaces of the gasket.

An assembly is provided for rotational equipment. This assembly includes a seal carrier, a seal element and a retainer. The seal carrier is configured with a receptacle. The seal element is seated in the receptacle. The retainer is configured to secure the seal element to the seal carrier. The seal element is arranged radially between the seal carrier and the retainer.

A sealing apparatus for a gas turbine engine includes: a first component; a second component positioned in proximity to the first component such that cavity is defined between the first and second components; a resilient seal disposed in the cavity so as to block gas flow between the first and second components, the resilient seal having a first contact surface contacting the first component and a second contact surface contacting the second component; and wherein the resilient seal is configured so as to produce a rolling movement in response to relative movement of the first and second components.

Flexible seal assemblies having a relatively low torsional rigidity and high longitudinal flexure to thereby allow the flexible seal assembly to flex between adjacent components and maintain a seal, even when movement between adjacent components occurs, is described. In some embodiments, the flexible seal assembly includes one or more layers of metal matrix material, the metal matrix material being comprised of a plurality of short segments of thin wire arranged randomly and sintered together to form a semi-rigid sheet. The one or more layers of metal matrix material can be sandwiched between an upper casing and a lower casing of a metal alloy casing. In various embodiments, additional features are provided for helping to make sure the seal assembly stays together, such as spot welds formed through the seal assembly, an S-shaped casing, and a recess/protrusion feature provided on adjacent layers of metal matrix material.

A sealing device and underwater machinery equipment are provided. The sealing device includes a sealing plug and a fixing assembly, wherein the sealing plug is in fixed connection with multiple cables, and the fixing assembly is constructed to fix the sealing plug on a sealed cabin in an abutting manner, such that the sealing plug is occluded in the sealed cabin. The underwater machinery equipment includes the sealing device as described above.

A flow control valve includes a valve body having a first section and a second section attached to the first section. A flow control member is positioned within the valve body and a shaft extends through the valve body and is connected to the flow control member to move the flow control member between an open position and a closed position. A sealing gasket is positioned within the valve body and engages the valve body to prevent the flow of fluid between the first section and the second section. The sealing gasket has an annular metallic body having an inner surface and an opposing outer surface, the outer surface defining a primary sealing surface, a groove formed in the outer surface, and an insert positioned within the groove, the insert defining a secondary sealing surface.

A tribological and creep resistant system configured to operate at temperatures in excess of 700° C. A seal body extends between a leading edge and a trailing edge. A first component contact surface is adjacent the leading edge and a second component contact surface is adjacent the trailing edge. The seal body is formed from a high entropy alloy.
