Abstract

An annular seal for sealing between a static and a dynamic machine part such as between the cylinder head and the piston rod of a hydraulic cylinder, made of a resilient material and energized by a surrounding compression ring, such as an O-Ring, the annular seal being installed with the compression ring in a common, rectangular housing groove such that it separates the compression ring from the moving surface and the downstream wall of the housing groove, the outer diameter of the seal meets or exceeds that of the groove bottom.

Claims (20)

1. An annular seal for sealing between a static and a dynamic machine part such as between the cylinder head and the piston rod of a hydraulic cylinder, made of a resilient material and energized by a surrounding compression ring, such as an o-Ring, the annular seal being installed with the compression ring in a common, rectangular housing groove such that it separates the compression ring from the moving surface and the downstream wall of the housing groove, the outer diameter of the seal meets or exceeds that of the groove bottom.
2. The seal of Claim 1 in which the outer diameter of the seal exceeds that of the groove bottom by between 0 and 1.50 mm.
3. The seal of Claim 1 in which the radial height of the seal meets or exceeds that of the housing groove.
4. The seal of Claim 1 in which the radial height of the seal exceeds that of the housing groove by between 0 and 25%.
5. The seal of Claim 1 in which the seal is laid out with a seal apex defined by an upstream seal angle of more than 15' and a downstream slip angle of more than 2'. The seal apex is in the preferred embodiment formed by the intersection of inlet and slip angle, but can be formed by a flat or a convex shape with a width of no more than 1 mm.
6. The seal of Claim 1 in which the seal is laid out with a seal apex defined by an upstream seal angle of more than 40' and a downstream slip angle of more than 10~. The seal apex is in the preferred embodiment formed by the intersection of inlet and slip angle, but can be formed by a flat or a convex shape with a width of no more than 0.75 mm.
7. The seal of Claim 1 in Which the seal is laid out with a seal apex defined by an upstream seal angle between 45 and 50', and a downstream slip angle between 12 and 17'.
8. The seal of Claim 1 in which the position of the seal apex is axially located near the center of the compression ring in its installed state.
9. The seal of Claim 1 in which the seal body is such laid out that the ratio: Radial groove height / axial distance from the seal apex to where the seal meets the groove bottom, exceeds 1.25.
10. The seal of Claim 1 in which the seal body is such laid out that the ratio: Radial groove height / axial distance from the seal apex to where the seal meets the groove bottom, exceeds 1.75.
11. The seal of claim 1 in which the seal body is such laid out that a straight line can be drawn from the seal apex through the body of the seal to the radial line defining the downstream wall of the seal, and that the first line forms an angle with the moving part of at least 40'.
12. The seal of Claim 1 in which the deal body is such laid out that a straight line can be drawn from the seal apex through the body of the seal to the radial line defining the downstream wall of the seal, and that the first line forms air angle with the moving part of at least 50'.
13. The seal of Claim 1 in which from the radial line going through the downstream end position of the compression ring the seal is such laid out, that a line can be drawn downstream from the point where the radial line intersects the moving surface, forming an angle with the moving surface of at least 7' without contacting the seal body.
14. The seal of Claim 1 in which from the radial line going through the downstream end position of the compression ring the seal is such laid out, that a line can be drawn downstream from the point where the radial line intersects the moving surface, forming an angle with the moving surface of at least 14' without contacting the seal body.
15. The seal of Claim ~ in which from the radial line going through the downstream end position of the compression ring the seal is such laid out, that a line can be drawn downstream from the point where the radial line intersects the moving surface, forming an angle with the moving surface of at least 18 and not more than 24' without contacting the seal body.
16. The seal of Claim 1 in which the outer diameter of the support ring meets or exceeds that of the groove bottom.
17, The seal of Claim 1 in which the outer. diameter of the support ring exceeds that of the groove bottom by between 0 and 0.75 mm.
18. The seal of Claim 1 in which the radial height of the support ring is equal to or less than the groove depth.
19. The seal of Claim 1 in which the internal diameter of the support ring exceeds the moving element by 0 to 0.5mm.
20. The seal of Claim 1 in which the inner surface of the support ring is to have an angle away from the moving element greater than 1' but less than 5'.
