Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a motor and an industrial robot. The motor comprises a main body, an inner end cover, an outer end cover, a first oil seal, a second oil seal and an oil leakage sensor. The main body comprises a rotor extending along an axial direction. The inner end cover is coupled to the main body and comprises a first hole for the rotor to pass through. The outer end cover is arranged outside the inner end cover along the axial direction and abuts against the inner end cover. The outer end cover comprises a second hole for the rotor to pass through, wherein a first oil seal is arranged adjacent to the second hole and a second oil seal is arranged inside the first oil seal and is adjacent to the second hole. A gap is provided between the first oil seal and the second oil seal along the axial direction. The oil leakage sensor is provided in a through hole penetrating the outer end cover along the axial direction and is configured to detect the amount of oil or grease flowing to the oil leakage sensor via the first oil seal. The motor according to the present disclosure is characterized in dual sealing and an automatic oil leakage detection, thereby improving the motor sealing reliability and the digitalization of the motor oil leakage detection.

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.

A steering seal diagnostic system includes a steering linkage that is operatively connectable to a pair of road wheels. The steering seal diagnostic system also includes a sealed compartment containing at least a portion of the steering linkage. The steering seal diagnostic system further includes a pressure sensor positioned to detect an internal pressure within the sealed compartment over a range of travel of the steering linkage, wherein a pressure change lower than a pressure change threshold indicates a leak condition of the sealed compartment.

A packing ring for a sealing device, having at least two segments that are arranged around a common main axis (X). In order to be able to detect the current condition of wear, the packing ring has at least one indicator means that indicates a position of at least one of the segments in a radial direction (R) perpendicular to the main axis (X) of the packing ring.

A sealing arrangement for detecting thickness (t) of a sealing element (2) of a seal (1) wherein the sealing surface (3) at frontside of the sealing element (2) is arranged to be in sliding contact with sealed surface (4), wherein at least one sensor (5) measures the thickness of the sealing element (2) and is mounted to the surrounding component (10) of the sealed surface (4). The sensor (5) is positioned opposite the sealing element (2). The sensor (5) receives a response from a transverse border of the sealing element (2) or from an electrically conductive insert (6) or from an insert (6) of magnetic material, which insert (6) is embedded within the sealing element (2) or is connected to the backside of the sealing element (2). The thickness (t) is detected and/or measured along the length of the sealing element (2).
