Abstract
Abstract Sealing device for rotating and for reciprocating machine parts, consisting of a stiffening ring with angular profile and a lipring, the lipring consisting of PTFE or a similar material, having a rotational section deflected in the direction of the sealed medium, as well as a holding section which is fixed relatively to the inwardly directed carrying web of the profile of the stiffening ring by means of a rubber-elastic, liquid- and gastight intermediate layer, the holding section, the carrying web and the intermediate layer being connected together as one piece, the layer having a thickness of at least 0.5 mm as well as a Shore A hardness of 65 to 85.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
143 words
A sealing device for rotating and for reciprocating machine parts, comprising a stiffening ring of angular profile having an inwardly directed carrying web, a lipring of non-elastomeric plastic material, said lipring having a freely inwardly extending lip section axially deflected in the direction of the sealed medium, and an outer, holding section, and a rubber-elastic, liquid- and gas-tight intermediate layer, the holding section of said lipring being fixed relatively to the carrying web of the profile of said lipring by means of said intermediate layer, wherein said carrying web and said intermediate layer are connected together as one piece, and wherein said layer has a thickness of at least 0.5 mm and a Shore A hardness of 65 to 85 and the ratio of the extent of the intermediate layer in radial direction to the thickness of said layer is 3 to 7.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
143 words
A sealing device for rotating and for reciprocating machine parts, comprising a stiffening ring of angular profile having an inwardly directed carrying web, a lipring of non-elastomeric plastic material, said lipring having a freely inwardly extending lip section axially deflected in the direction of the sealed medium, and an outer, holding section, and a rubber-elastic, liquid- and gas-tight intermediate layer, the holding section of said lipring being fixed relatively to the carrying web of the profile of said lipring by means of said intermediate layer, wherein said carrying web and said intermediate layer are connected together as one piece, and wherein said layer has a thickness of at least 0.5 mm and a Shore A hardness of 65 to 85 and the ratio of the extent of the intermediate layer in radial direction to the thickness of said layer is 3 to 7.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
24 words
A sealing device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the holding section, the carrying web and the intermediate layer are connected together by vulcanization.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
22 words
A sealing device as claimed in claim 1 or 2, wherein the intermediate layer has a thickness of 0.7 to 3.0 mm.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
20 words
A sealing device as claimed in claim 3, wherein the intermediate layer has a thickness of 0.9 to 1.4 mm.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
23 words
A sealing device as claimed in claim 1 or 2, wherein the intermediate layer has a Shore A hardness of 70 to 80.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
26 words
A sealing device as claimed in claim 1 or 2, wherein the entire surface of the carrying web is utilized for the attachment of said lipring.
