| 2000 | Invention patented by Hans-Henning Zutz on November 19th, 2000. Abstract: An axial face seal has a sliding ring and/or a counter-ring for use with an elastic roll body. The ring has a seal leg having a sliding surface, and a supporting portion with a conical circumferential surface outside of the sliding surface for accommodating the elastic roll body. The seal leg also has an extended region that extends past the supporting portion. A reinforcement for the extended region is located between the extended region and the supporting portion. |
| 2000 | Invention patented by Hans-Henning Zutz on November 19th, 2000. Abstract: An axial face seal, in particular a running gear seal, consists of an angular sliding ring and/or counter-ring with a circumferential surface for accommodating a ring-shaped sealing member with approximately plate-shaped cross section. The sealing member contains a secondary seal guided in the area of the sealing leg, wherein the sealing leg of the sliding ring and/or counter-ring is provided on the ring backside with an axial projection extending in the direction of the sealing member. The secondary seal in the non-assembled state is positioned at a radial distance to the sealing leg or the projection and has at least in part a larger diameter than the sealing member. At least the free end of the secondary seal can be positioned with radial compression on the sealing leg or the projection with the aid of a component that accommodates the sealing member. |
