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.

An example refrigeration system includes an indoor fluid loop, an outdoor fluid loop, and a heat exchanger assembly. The indoor fluid loop circulates a first working fluid. The outdoor fluid loop circulates a second working fluid that is different from the first working fluid and is separated from the indoor fluid loop by a wall of a structure. The heat exchanger assembly is mounted within the wall of the structure. The heat exchanger assembly includes a heat exchanger and a housing, where the heat exchanger is disposed within an internal space defined by the housing. The housing supports the heat exchanger within the internal space and is mounted to a structure of the wall.

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 object is to provide a metal gasket that can form a wide contact width for a counterpart sealing face and that can achieve excellent sealing properties even when a blow hole is generated in the counterpart sealing face, and the object is achieved by a metal gasket having a bead portion to be in contact with a counterpart sealing face to form a sealing portion, formed on a gasket main body. The bead portion includes an arc portion that is convex toward the counterpart sealing face and hem-rising portions that each obliquely rise from the gasket main body toward the arc portion, on both hems of the arc portion. A connection portion between the arc portion and the hem-rising portion is formed to be convex toward a convex side of the bead portion. Plastic distortion for an overall width of the arc portion is lower than that of the connection portion. A contact pressure distribution in the arc portion in a compression state has a shape that is flat and wide in a width direction of the arc portion.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a sealing structure for a casing that can reduce the number of used gaskets and achieve further weight reduction, with the sealing function of the gaskets secured. The object is solved by including: a case 2 having an opened top; a cover 3 attached to the top of the case 2 to form a fluid flow path therein; a center plate 5 interposed between the case 2 and the cover 3 and partitions an inner space into the side of the case 2 and the side of the cover 3; and a gasket 4, which is disposed between the case 2 and the cover 3, and forming the center plate 5 so as to have a size that is within an inner peripheral side relative to a sealing line 41 of the gasket 4 and stacking this center plate on the gasket 4, and attaching the cover 3 to the top of the case 2 with the stacked gasket 4 and center plate 5 sandwiched there between to compress the gasket 4 with the mutual butting surfaces between the case 2 and the cover 3.

A gasket material to be mounted in a vehicle engine, wherein, on one or both sides of a steel plate, a rubber layer is formed via a coating film including a reaction product of an acid component and a metal or a reaction product of an acid component and a metal compound, and at least one selected from zirconia, alumina and titania.

A gasket includes an endless loop of sealing material. The endless loop includes a first segment, a second segment, and a sinuous segment extending from the first segment to the second segment. The gasket includes fastener sections defining fastener holes. The fastener holes extends through the fastener sections. The sinuous segment is between two of the fastener holes. A lip is in each fastener hole. The lip extends from the fastener section into the fastener hole and extends around the circumference of the fastener hole. The sinuous segment retains the gasket in a groove of a cover, and the lip retains a fastener in a fastener hole of the cover.

Sealing device for a wheel hub unit is disclosed herein, wherein the sealing device being able, during use, to form a static seal for protecting the wheel hub unit from any environmental pollutant and being provided with a screen, which is engaged with a collar of the wheel hub unit and has a bottom wall, a cylindrical side wall integral with and more or less perpendicular to the bottom wall. The sealing device is designed and structured to protect the wheel hub unit from any environmental contaminant that the wheel hub unit may be exposed to during usage.

The present invention relates to a gasket (1, 1′, 1″) for sealing a drive shaft of a pulp washer, the gasket comprising a gasket body (10) having a central opening delimited by an inner edge (21) and the gasket body (10) also having an outer edge (22), wherein the gasket (10) further comprises a cut-in portion (30) that extends from the outer edge (22) in a radial direction inwards into the gasket body (10).

The invention also relates to a pulp washer comprising at least one such gasket and to a method for mounting such a gasket on a drive shaft of a pulp washer.

A gasket includes a thick portion providing a first face seal and a thin portion providing a second face seal. A fluid coupling has an annular gasket housing recess that includes a wide portion for housing the thick portion of the gasket and a narrow portion for housing the thin portion of the gasket.
