An inflatable seal includes an annular body made of elastic material. The inflatable seal includes a chamber disposed in the annular body. The inflatable seal includes a fixing end and a movable end opposite to the fixing end in a cross section. The inflatable seal further includes first and second sides interconnected between the fixing end and the movable end and opposite to each other. The fixing end includes an annular lining disposed in the annular body. The sealing ability of the inflatable seal is improved in the axial direction and the radial direction.

A gearcase seal assembly includes an inboard seal body and an outboard seal body both extending about and along a center axis between respective interior and exterior portions. The inboard and outboard seal bodies include respective inboard and outboard pockets configured to receive first and second surfaces of a gearcase of an axle assembly, respectively. The interior portions of the inboard and outboard seal bodies include respective gutters configured to direct fluid away from the first and second surfaces of the gearcase, respectively. The exterior portion of the inboard seal body includes plural fingers disposed outside of the inboard pocket and extending in one or more directions away from the inboard pocket. The exterior portion of the outboard seal body includes plural other fingers disposed outside of the outboard pocket and extending in one or more directions away from the outboard pocket.

A sealing system which is designed to leverage the centrifugal acceleration of solids and liquids due to the natural rotation of the roller, expelling them outside, preventing most of the contamination from trying to penetrate the roller seals. Excess of contaminants that is not centrifugally expelled is blocked by the following internal sealing system.

A seal assembly is for sealing a bearing disposed between an inner shaft and an outer hub and includes an annular inner case having an axial section disposable about the shaft shoulder and a radial section extending radially outwardly from the axial section. An annular outer case is disposed about the inner case, has an axial section coupleable with the hub and a radial section extending radially inwardly from the outer case axial section and spaced axially from the inner case radial section. An elastomeric seal member is attached to the outer case radial section and has a sealing lip sealingly engaged with the axial section of the inner case. An annular positioner is coupled with the inner case and has a radial section engageable with the axial end of the bearing inner ring so as to locate the inner case at a desired position along the central axis.

A shaft seal, in particular a radial shaft seal, has a seal element that is provided with a seal section that under elastic deformation contacts the outer side of a mounting sleeve. The shaft seal has a grease ring located on the mounting sleeve wherein the grease ring is arranged axially adjacent to the free end of the seal section on the mounting sleeve. For installation, grease ring and seal section are pushed by a mounting tool onto the shaft and the seal section on the shaft is pushed onto the grease ring in such a way that the grease of the grease ring is distributed between the seal section and the shaft.

A sealing device, sealing assembly and an apparatus having a rotation shaft that uses the sealing assembly. The sealing assembly includes a rotating shaft seal and a sealing device. The rotating shaft seal has a ring shaped body with the rotating shaft passing through it and a sealing portion forming a dynamic sealing cooperation with the rotating shaft. The sealing device includes a ring shaped body with the rotating shaft passing through it, and includes first and second ring shaped portions spaced apart from each other in an axial direction. The first ring shaped portion defines a static sealing surface forming a static sealing cooperation with the rotating shaft, and the second ring shaped portion defines a dynamic sealing surface forming a dynamic sealing cooperation with a portion of the rotating shaft seal adjacent to the sealing portion of the rotating shaft seal.

A magnetic liquid sealing device is provided. The magnetic liquid sealing device includes a housing, a rotating shaft, a pole shoe, a permanent magnet, and a first sealing ring. The rotating shaft is provided with an annular first stop portion, the pole shoe has a first end face and a second end face opposite to each other in an axial direction of the rotating shaft, and the permanent magnet is fitted over the rotating shaft. The first sealing ring is fitted over the rotating shaft, and includes a first part and a second part. The first part is sealedly fitted with at least one of the first end face and an inner peripheral surface of the housing, and an inner end of the second part is a first free end movably arranged along the axial direction of the rotating shaft.

A sealing device includes a reinforcing ring and an elastic body part. The elastic body part includes an annular seal lip, an annular dust lip, and an annular side lip that extends toward an outer side on an outer periphery side of the dust lip. The side lip includes an annular middle portion that increases in diameter as progress toward the outer side and an annular distal end portion that is a portion connected to and on the outer side of the middle portion and that increases in diameter as progress toward the outer side. In the side lip, the distal end portion is bent to an inner periphery side from the middle portion. In the middle portion, at least one groove is formed annularly around an axis x.
