A mechanical seal in which a rotary ring can be more reliably positioned. A rotary ring unit 100 includes: a sleeve 120 fixed to a rotary shaft 500; and a rotary ring 110 of which a movement in an axial direction and a rotation with respect to the sleeve 120 is restricted, a fixed ring unit 200 includes: a fixed ring 210 configured to slide on an end surface of the rotary ring 110; and a bellows 250 which presses the fixed ring 210 toward the rotary ring 110, and the sleeve 120 is provided with a stopper 140 which restricts a movement of the rotary ring 110 toward the fixed ring 210.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a mechanical seal in which a stationary-side sealing ring can follow the movement of a rotating-side sealing ring to provide reliable sealing properties and by which the entire device can be made compact. A mechanical seal in which a rotating-side sealing ring 13 attached to a shaft 2 and a stationary-side sealing ring 21 attached to a housing 3 slide relative to each other and seal between the housing 3 and the shaft 2 includes a case 22 which is attached to the housing 3 and which contains the stationary-side sealing ring 21, and a seal member 23 which is disposed between the case 22 and the stationary-side sealing ring 21, and the case 22 includes a holding part 22d which regulates the seal member 23 from moving to both sides in the axial direction thereof.

Systems and methods for sealing a static or rotary tube to a rotary tube that is part of a thermal unit performing an airless or oxygen starved high-temperature incineration process like pyrolysis. Embodiments comprise a seal comprising a bearing assembly suspended on gimbals, the bearing assembly comprising an outer housing supporting therebetween a plurality of support rollers in contact with a rolling seal disk disposed between the flanges of the tubes. Embodiments comprise features that aid in preventing the bad effects of high temperatures and axial thrust loads of the tubes, including coordinating beveled portions on the support rollers and rolling seal disk. Embodiments comprise features for modularity and ease of maintenance, including gland plates, bore holes for oil and/or grease.

A sealing assembly of an input shaft includes a support structure, a bearing assembly, and an input seal. The input seal including an input seal housing having a first portion and a second portion. The first portion is arranged adjacent the bearing assembly. At least one face plate anti-rotation pin is coupled to the input seal housing and positioned adjacent the input shaft. A face plate is positioned adjacent the second portion. The face plate is configured to directly contact the input shaft.

A sealing device provides consistent sealing performance in applications where a rotating shaft rotates at high speed. The sealing device 10 seals an annular gap between a rotating shaft 50 and a housing 60, and includes a case 100 fixedly attached to the shaft hole, and a seal ring 200 held in the case 100 such as to be restricted from moving in a rotating direction, and to separate a high-pressure side (H) where pressure rises during use of the sealing device from an opposite low-pressure side (L). The seal ring 200 is disposed such that there is an annular gap between itself and an outer circumferential surface of the rotating shaft 50, and the annular gap is dimensioned such that a fluid pressure of a sealed fluid flowing from the high-pressure side (H) into the low-pressure side (L) causes the Lomakin effect.

A face seal includes a seal carrier defining an axis and having a pilot flange, a seal element disposed at least partially in the seal carrier, and a retaining plate connected to one axial end of the seal carrier. The retaining plate has an axial step disposed circumferentially about the retaining plate. The axial step is interfaced with the pilot flange.

An apparatus has a first member, a shaft rotatable relative to the first member about an axis, and a seal system. The seal system has: a seal carried by the first member and having a seal face; and a seat carried by the shaft and having a seat face in sliding sealing engagement with the seal face. The seal system is a dry face seal system. The seat further includes a section having: an outer diameter surface encircled by the seal; and a rim.

A mechanical seal for sealing against a rotating shaft includes a static ring positioned about the shaft and a movable ring positioned about the shaft and in sliding contact with the static ring. The movable ring is rotatable with the shaft and a tray sleeve is attached to one of the movable ring and the static ring, with the tray sleeve being selectively movable in an axial direction along the shaft. Wear between the static ring and the movable ring causes the tray sleeve to move in the axial direction. The tray sleeve includes an indicator and relative movement of the indicator along the shaft is in proportion to the wear between the static ring and the movable ring.

A mechanical seal for liquid with an axially floating tray sleeve inside, comprising a movable ring, a static ring, a locking ring and a tray sleeve, wherein the static ring is connected to a cover and a shell to be stationary, the movable ring is fixed with a shaft or a shaft sleeve through the locking ring and rotates, and the contact end faces of the movable ring and the static ring form a sealing face which is vertical to and slides against the shaft; the tray sleeve is between a sealing ring and the shaft or shaft sleeve in the direction vertical to the shaft; the tray sleeve is connected to the movable ring or the static ring near an inner end of the liquid in the axial direction; the tray sleeve extends out of the cover in the axial direction near the air end.

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.
