Resin molded article for seal
The resin molded article includes a main body part configured to be mounted to a car body panel, a cantilever-shaped seal part for sealing a gap in the car body panel, and a hollow tubular-shaped seal part. The seal part is in resilient contact with the car body panel in a state of being mounted to the car body panel. The seal part is molded from a thermoplastic elastomer containing 25 wt % or more of an olefin block copolymer. It is preferable that the thermoplastic elastomer also contains a dynamically crosslinked olefin-based elastomer in addition to the olefin block copolymer.
Seal arrangement
A seal arrangement includes a first outer skin and a second outer skin disposed about an axial centerline. The second outer skin is adjacent the first outer skin and includes at least one door. A bulkhead extends substantially radially at least a portion of a distance between the axial centerline and one of the first outer skin and the second outer skin. A first outer frame includes a first portion, a second portion, and a third portion. The first portion of the first outer frame is mounted to the bulkhead. A seal is mounted to one of the at least one door and the second portion. The at least one door is rotatable between a first position and a second position. In the second position the seal contacts the at least one door and the second portion. The third portion is configured to limit a compression of the seal.
Sealing Arrangement for an Enclosure
A sealing arrangement for an enclosure is provided. The sealing arrangement can include an offset and an open hem. The open hem can have an inner perimeter that defines an opening of the enclosure and an outer perimeter with radiused corners configured to receive a continuous gasket to seal the enclosure.
COATED THERMOPLASTIC SEAL RETAINER FOR FIRE SEAL TEST
A seal retainer for a fire seal of a gas turbine engine is provided. The seal retainer includes a core formed from a thermoplastic material and having a shape of a seal retainer with a top surface and a bottom surface, a first layer applied to the top surface of the core, and a second layer applied to the bottom surface of the core. The first layer and the second layer are formed from a high-temperature resistant material.
SEALING STRUCTURE FOR AUTOMOBILE
A sealing structure for use on an automobile having a weather strip and an interior member wherein the weather strip includes an installation base member having an inner-cabin side wall, an outer-cabin side wall, a connecting wall and holding lips; and a seal member. The installation base member couples to a flange vertically formed along a peripheral edge of an opening corresponding to a door. The seal member is formed on the outer-cabin side wall and makes elastic contact with a door glass. The interior member is provided on an inner-cabin side of the inner-cabin side wall. An end of the interior member extends toward the connecting wall. A projection is formed on an outer circumference of a connecting part between the outer-cabin side wall and the connecting wall. The projection extends in an internal circumferential direction and covers the end of the interior member from an outer-cabin side.
Trailing edge for a composite lifting surface
A trailing edge for a composite lifting surface is disclosed having a spar, an upper panel and a lower panel each having a free edge, a seal, and an elongated profile located on the panels following a spanwise direction of the trailing edge. An elongated profile including a web extending along the spanwise direction of the trailing edge, and having first and second flange portions, and a transition zone in between the first and second flange portions extending at different heights with respect to each other. The first flange portion is configured to hold at least a part of the seal underneath, and the second flange portion is configured to contact the panel so that the first flange portion secures the seal to the panel, and the second flange portion secures the elongated profile to the panel.
BULB SEAL AND SPRING
A sealing system may include a bulb seal coupled to a first component and a spring coupled to a second component. The bulb seal may contact the spring to form a seal between the first component and the second component. The bulb seal may be relatively stiff when new and cause the spring to compress. The bulb seal may be relatively flexible as it ages, and the spring may cause the bulb seal to compress. The bulb seal and the spring may maintain a seal throughout the life of the sealing system. The sealing system may maintain a constant separation between the first component and the second component throughout the life of the sealing system.
DOOR WEATHER STRIP FOR VEHICLE
A door weather strip includes an attaching base, wherein: the attaching base has a bottom side part having a plate-like shape and facing the outer circumference of the door; core removal slits are formed at a main wall of a seal lip part of a die molding part; two core removal slits are provided at the bottom side part of the attaching base, and is provided such that the core removal slits of the attaching base are located at opposite sides of the core removal slits of the hollow seal part; and one of the core removal slits of the hollow seal part is open in a direction parallel to the bottom side part of the attaching base, and the other of the core removal slits of the attaching base is open in a direction perpendicular to the bottom side part of the attaching base.
Permanently lubricated film gasket and method of manufacture
A permanently lubricated film gasket for providing a fluid-tight seal between a corrugated pipe and a smooth annular section of an outer pipe or section when the corrugated pipe and the outer pipe or section are in a relative surrounded and surrounding relationship. A first portion of the gasket is shaped to fit within a groove or recess of the corrugated pipe. A second portion of the gasket extends from the first portion. The second portion is at least partially comprised of permanently lubricated film for facilitating in the connection of the pipes along a single direction.
Bumper gap aerodynamic seal
A dual position bulb seal is provided for selectively sealing an interface gap between two components of a vehicle. The dual position bulb seal includes an elongated base portion configured for coupling to a first vehicle component. A hollow, bulbous portion may extend from the elongated base portion. A flexible sealing fin upwardly extends from the bulbous portion, along a length of the bulbous portion. The flexible sealing fin may be configured to rest in a first, non-sealing position that permits a flow of air over the flexible sealing fin, and a second, sealing position contacting a second vehicle component such that it prevents a flow of air through the interface gap.
