SEALING ELEMENT FOR A PRESSURE SENSOR ASSEMBLY FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE AND PRESSURE SENSOR ASSEMBLY
The invention relates to a sealing element (1) for a pressure sensor assembly (2) for a motor vehicle for crash detection with a pressure sensor unit (12) inside an assembly housing, wherein the pressure sensor unit (12) comprises a sensing element arranged inside a pressure sensor housing (11) for detecting an air pressure, and wherein the pressure sensor housing (11) has a pressure supply opening (13) for supplying the air pressure from a pressure inlet of the assembly housing to the sensing element. The sealing element (1) can be arranged between the pressure sensor housing (11) and an assembly housing wall, in order to seal the pressure supply opening (13) in relation to the inside of the assembly house, in such a way that the sealing element (1) encloses the pressure supply opening (13) and fluidically connects the pressure inlet with the pressure supply opening (13), wherein the sealing element (1) has a through-recess (3) running in an axial direction and a main body (4) having an outer wall (5) and an inner wall (6) surrounding the through-recess (3), as well as having a lower axial end (7) and an upper axial end (8), wherein the inner wall (6) of the main body (4) has a first wall section (9) widening towards the lower axial end (7), wherein the lower axial end (7) of the main body (4) faces the pressure sensor housing (11) in the assembled state, and wherein the first wall section (9) forms a contact surface (10) for contact with the pressure sensor housing (11), on which at least sections of the pressure sensor housing (11) rest in the assembled state. The invention also relates to a pressure sensor assembly (2) comprising a sealing element (1) of this type.
Flexible and/or Deformable Mechanical Elements with Radiographic Markers
A flexible and/or deformable mechanical element may comprise one or more radiographic markers. The one or more radiographic markers may have a radiopacity greater than a radiopacity of a parent material forming a body of the mechanical element. A radiographic image of a portion of an assembly into which the mechanical element has been installed may include a representation of the one or more radiographic markers that indicates a condition of the mechanical element.
Radial seal for disposable force sensor
A pressure reading assembly including a housing defining a conduit configured to transmit bodily fluid therethrough and a receiving tube having a first opening and an inner cylindrical surface. The pressure reading assembly further includes a sensing apparatus which includes a sensor disposed on a substrate and an engagement member including a generally columnar sealing member configured to engage an inner cylindrical surface of a receiving tube within the housing connected to the substrate about the sensor. The sealing member defines an axial bore extending from a proximal end to a distal end and includes an outer sealing surface defining one or more engaging elements configured to non-adhesively engage the inner cylindrical surface of the receiving tube to resist removal of the sensor assembly so that a pre-sterilized sensor assembly can be removed from a clean sealed packaging and joined directly with the housing.
RUBBER COMPOSITION AND VULCANIZED MOLDED ARTICLE
A rubber composition is provided that contains an ethylene-butene-diene terpolymer, silica having a CTAB specific surface area of 30 m.sup.2/g or more and 150 m.sup.2/g or less, a silane coupling agent, and a crosslinking agent, in which a content of the silica per 100 parts by weight of the ethylene-butene-diene terpolymer is 25 parts by weight or more and 90 parts by weight or less.
Sealing element
Sealing element for producing an electrically conductive connection between a first machine element and a second machine element, comprising at least one disc-shaped conducting element and a support ring, the support ring comprising an axial flange and a radial flanged, the conducting element being formed from an electrically conductive foil, and the conducting element being secured at least in sections along the axial flange between the support ring and the second machine element.
Seal assembly and method for monitoring a seal assembly
A seal assembly includes: a seal element; a part to be sealed; and a measuring arrangement for monitoring an aging of the seal element. The seal element is held on the part so as to provide a contact stress between the seal element and the part. The seal element has a contact face with which the seal element bears against the part. At least one measuring component of the measuring arrangement is integrated in each case into the seal element and into the part. The contact face of the seal element has a surface geometry with depressions.
Gasket with electrical isolating coatings
An electrically isolating gasket is disclosed wherein a coating layer is disposed on at least one conductive surface, and in some embodiments, on all surfaces or at least all of the conductive surfaces. The electrically isolating gasket includes a core gasket component, a ring seal component, and a non-conductive inner seal component. The coating layer can be, for example, polyimide, polyamide, ceramic, and aluminum oxide.
SEAL ASSEMBLY AND SEAL ELEMENT
A sealing assembly includes: a first machine element and a second machine element, which delimit a gap; and a sealing element arranged in the gap, the sealing element sealingly laying against the second machine element under an elastic bias, the sealing element having a first section and a second section, the first section coming into contact with a medium to be sealed off. The sealing element includes at least one sensor, the at least one sensor detecting a contact pressure exerted by the sealing element. The at least one sensor is associated with the second section.
GASKET DEVICE AND PNEUMATIC VALVE SYSTEM FOR A COMMERCIAL VEHICLE
A gasket device for a pneumatic valve system, in particular of a commercial vehicle, comprises gasket part being adapted to be inserted into at least a groove of a contact face of a first casing part, e.g. an adapter, the gasket part comprising at least one gasket chamber for sealingly connecting device channels of mounted casing parts; a body part being adapted to be received in a valve seat of the casing part; at least one spring part connecting the body part and the gasket part,
wherein the body part is moveable in an airflow direction relative to the gasket part by bending or stretching the at least one spring part,
wherein in an unbiased basic condition of the gasket device the body part is positioned above a gasket plane defined by the gasket chamber.
The gasket device is made as a single part of a flexible, elastic material.
