A seal ring has, on an outer peripheral surface side thereof, a pair of recessed parts 140 extending in a circumferential direction on both sides in a width direction thereof to form a projection part 120 between the pair of recessed parts 140, and has a plurality of ribs 130 connected to the projection part 120 and extending to lateral surfaces of the seal ring at intervals in the circumferential direction inside the pair of recessed parts 140, and a plurality of ribs 130 arranged on a sealed region side among the plurality of ribs 130 have lateral-wall surfaces on an upstream side in a relative rotation direction of a housing with respect to a shaft, each of the lateral-wall surfaces having inclined surfaces inclined from the upstream side to a downstream side in the relative rotation direction of the housing from the projection part 120 toward the lateral surfaces of the seal ring.

The seal ring is annular around an axis x and includes an annular outer peripheral surface facing an outer periphery side, and a plurality of recessed parts. The recessed parts are formed in such a way as to be spaced apart from each other in a circumferential direction and are recessed from the outer peripheral surface toward an inner periphery side. The recessed parts expand, in the axis x direction, from one side surface to a position which does not reach another side surface. The outer peripheral surface includes a annular contact surface between the another side surface and the position, and rib surfaces respectively between mutually neighboring recessed parts in the circumferential direction. Each of the rib surfaces extends between the one side surface and the position in the axis x direction.

A wear ring for guidance of two machine components are arranged movably relative to one another along/around a movement axis, which is formed in one piece from a plastic or a reinforced plastic material and which is slit such that it has two free ends. The wear ring has a cross-sectional width W, which at least sectionally, increases in a radial direction towards the rear side of the wear ring. The wear ring has one or more recesses formed on its front side and/or on its the rear side for increasing its deformability and thus facilitate mounting thereof in a mounting groove of a machine element. Furthermore, a wear ring arrangement with a wear ring can be clipped into a mounting groove of one of the machine components of the wear ring arrangement.

Provided is a seal ring configured so that stable lubrication performance can be provided across a wide range of rotation speed. A seal ring for sealing a clearance between a rotary shaft and a housing includes inclined grooves formed at a sliding surface so as to be arranged in a circumferential direction, the inclined grooves being open on an outer diameter side of the seal ring to generate a drawing pressure. The seal ring further includes supply grooves being open on a sealed fluid side of the seal ring and extending in a radially outward direction toward inner diameter sides of the inclined grooves.

A hydrodynamic seal (10) for use with a rotating shaft (24) is disclosed. The seal includes a face seal (20) and a mating ring (22) fixed or connected to rotate with the shaft. A clamping nut (30) is adjacent to the mating ring and includes threads to secure a portion of the clamping nut to the shaft via a threaded interface (32). Embodiments of the seal and related assembly include at least one of: a spring component (140) with or on the clamping nut; a clamping surface (150) on an interface between the mating ring and the clamping nut, the clamping surface being substantially parallel to a thread pitch on the threaded interface; and a pilot surface (250) on the clamping nut.

A noncontacting intershaft seal system includes force generating mechanisms to reduce contact related effects. A sealing system includes an outer shaft that has a hollow interior. An inner shaft extends through the hollow interior of the outer shaft. Spaced apart end plates encircle and rotate with the inner shaft. A gland opening is defined between the inner and outer shafts and between the end plates. A ring is disposed in the gland opening. The end plates and/or the ring include force generating elements that generate force to separate the ring from the end plates, reducing contact related heat generation and wear.

The present invention is to provide a sealing device that has a small number of parts as three or less to achieve a more compact sealing device. The sealing device is combined an inner seal ring, an outer seal ring held in an outer circumferential holding groove of the inner seal ring, and a back ring. The outer seal ring satisfies a dimensional size relationship of T>A when T is the radial thickness dimension of the outer seal ring, G is the protrusion gap dimension, R is the radial width dimension of the chamfered sections on the edges of the open side of the seal installation groove, and A is the sum of the protrusion gap dimension G and the radial width dimension R of the chamfered sections on the edges of the open side.

The invention relates to a die casting ring (1) internally fitted with radial teeth (11) to be engaged into matching seats (22) provided on a piston (2). This piston-ring assembly prevents mutual rotation or axial translation, in addition to ensuring an optimal seal against infiltration of liquid metal during the die casting process. When the ring has a cutout (10), it can be mounted accurately onto the piston because the teeth (11) allow the cutout to be positioned anywhere relative to the piston.
