In a sealing apparatus, a lip tip portion of a seal lip of an elastic body part is defined by a sealing side surface and an atmospheric side surface, connected through a lip tip with each other. The lip tip portion includes a circumferential projection and a screw portion on the atmospheric side surface. The circumferential projection extends parallel to the lip tip. The screw portion includes a plurality of parallel screw projections and a plurality of bilge screw projections. The parallel screw projections are arranged at equal pitch intervals in parallel with each other between the lip tip and the circumferential projection. The bilge screw projections are arranged at equal pitch intervals in parallel with each other from the circumferential projection toward the atmospheric side. The bilge screw projections do not overlap the adjacent bilge screw projections in a direction of axis with each other.

A seal arrangement includes a first and a second machine part which are arranged spaced apart from one another with the formation of a sealing gap and can be moved relative to one another about a movement axis. A seal element with a base section is arranged on or in a seal holding structure of one of the two machine parts. A sealing head bears in a dynamically sealing manner by way of a sealing section against a sealing surface of the respective other machine part in order to seal a high-pressure side from a low-pressure side. The seal element on the high-pressure side has at least one flow element, wherein during relative movement of the two machine parts fluid on the high-pressure side in the area of the sealing section of flows onto the sealing head.

A sealing apparatus which is capable of preventing static leakage of a target to be sealed without increasing sliding resistance with respect to a shaft, and a surface processing method of a disk member of the sealing apparatus which is capable of processing a surface of the disk member, such as a slinger, provided at the sealing apparatus. A surface processing method of a disk member of a sealing apparatus for forming a plurality of fine spiral grooves on a surface of the disk member provided at the sealing apparatus has a grinding member having a plurality of fine projections that is moved to an outer edge side while the grinding member is pressed against the surface of the disk member which relatively rotates around an axis, and the sealing apparatus includes a slinger at which a plurality of fine spiral grooves are randomly formed on another side surface of a flange portion.

The invention relates to a sealing element for an ink chamber of a rotary printing press, wherein the sealing element has a sealing surface that rests against a roller body during operation of the rotary printing press. In order to reduce wear on the sealing element, the sealing surface has at least one flow outlet opening, at which an overpressure of a fluid may be built up during operation of the rotary printing press, in such a way that the fluid between the sealing surface and roller body forms a sealing flow film.

A seal assembly configured to seal a first machine part relative to a second machine part includes a sliding ring provided on the first machine part, the sliding ring having a sealing surface configured to slidingly abut a counter surface of the second machine part, and includes a clamping ring configured to exert a force on the sliding ring in a direction of the counter surface. The sliding ring includes a plurality of circumferentially spaced recesses in the seal surface that extend axially and radially into the sliding ring.
