The invention refers to a pipe seal suitable for use in a Rieber joint, the seal (14) comprising an annular sealing member (18) and an annular reinforcing member (20) completely embedded in the sealing member (18). The reinforcing member (20) is made of a rigid plastic band and the reinforcing member (20) includes, for increasing an area of contact between the sealing member (18) and the reinforcing member (20), at least one protrusion (24) and/or at least one recess (26).

A kit of parts for sealing openings between an enclosure extending through a wall separating a cleanroom and a space outside the cleanroom. Multiple gaskets, frame members, and a lower skirt are positioned to seal any openings between the side, top and bottom surfaces of the enclosure and proximate wall surfaces. The sealing components can be easily installed without the use of tools.

A seal assembly includes a first wall extending from a compression side to a fastened side of the seal assembly, a stiffening member embedded within the first wall adjacent to the compression side of the seal assembly, and a second wall exterior of the first wall and extending from the compression side to the fastened side of the seal assembly. When the seal assembly is pressurized, the first wall and the second wall define an insulated pocket.

A seal system includes a ceramic component, a metallic component, a coating system. The ceramic component has a first surface region that defines a first surface roughness. The metallic component is situated adjacent to the first surface region and has a second surface region facing the first surface region. The coating system includes a silicon-containing layer on the surface region of the ceramic component and barrier layer on the silicon-containing layer. The silicon containing layer has a surface in contact with the barrier layer and the barrier layer has a surface in contact with the metallic component. The surface of the barrier layer has a second surface roughness that is less than the first surface roughness. The barrier layer serves to limit interaction between silicon of the silicon-containing layer and elements of the metallic component. The barrier layer includes at least one of mullite, zircon, or hafnon.

Apparatuses for controlling fluid flow are important components for delivering process fluids for semiconductor fabrication. These apparatuses for controlling fluid flow require a variety of fluid flow components which are tightly packaged within the apparatuses for controlling flow. Servicing the apparatuses requires specialized equipment and methods which enable installation of seals in close quarters in apparatuses which are installed in the field. Seal retainers may be used to retain the seals during assembly of fluid flow components into apparatus for controlling flow.

Noise caused by vibration of a door hole seal is reduced. A door hole seal includes a first sheet having a slit formed therein and a second sheet covering the slit from an exterior side of a vehicle. At least a specific region of the second sheet is made of a rubber-like elastic body, the specific region extending from a portion corresponding to the slit to a vertically lower end of the second sheet.

Aspects of the disclosure relate to seal assemblies, and associated components thereof, and methods of using the same for use in pressure containing bodies, such as choke valves. In one example, a sensor is used with the seal assemblies. In one implementation, a pressure containing body apparatus includes a pressure containing body including a central opening and a central axis extending through the central opening. The pressure containing body apparatus includes a sleeve disposed in the central opening of the pressure containing body. The pressure containing body apparatus includes an angled seal disposed about the sleeve at an angle relative to the central axis of the pressure containing body. The angle is greater than 0 degrees and less than 90 degrees.

Disclosed is a waterproof substrate, including: two mounting surfaces disposed facing away from each other; and at least one waterproof protrusion provided on at least one of the two mounting surfaces and including: a protrusion body connected with the mounting surface, and one end of the protrusion body away from the waterproof substrate includes a connecting end surface; and at least two waterproof ribs, and each of the waterproof ribs is provided on the connecting end surface respectively and is gradually inclined outwardly in a direction away from the connecting end surface respectively.

The shape of a back-up ring is a V-shaped sectional shape. In the back-up ring, an annular concave surface part having a V-shaped sectional shape serving as a valley toward a high-pressure side is formed on a surface part on a side that faces a seal ring, and an annular convex surface part having a V-shaped sectional shape serving as a peak toward a low-pressure side is formed on a surface part opposite to the side that faces the seal ring. When a high pressure is applied from a high-pressure side, the back-up ring is deformed such that V-shaped angles of an annular concave surface part and an annular convex surface part are increased as the annular concave surface part is pressed against the seal ring, and is brought into close contact with a housing and a shaft.

A pump for applying fluid, the pump including: a pump housing, including: a fluid inlet on a low-pressure side; an fluid outlet on a high-pressure side; a circumferential wall surrounding the pump delivery chamber; and an end-facing wall featuring an outer end-facing surface facing axially away from the delivery chamber and at which the outlet emerges; a delivery member, moveable in the delivery chamber, for delivering the fluid from the low-pressure side to the high-pressure side; a gasket including a gasket loop which surrounds the outlet to seal it off on the outer end-facing surface of the end-facing wall; a female joining element featuring an axially extending hollow space; and a male joining element protruding through or from the pump housing or the gasket. The male joining element is in a joining engagement, which can be subjected to axial tensile stress, with the female joining element in the hollow space.
