Definitions

• the present invention relates to sealing means betweeen two cover elements which are to be positioned in the same plane and to be moved relatively to each other both in the plane of the element and at right angles to the same.
• each element may be provided with suitable guide means, on one hand, ay be in the form of projections on one side face of each beam, adapted to engage a corresponding side face of the beam on the other element or, on the other hand, be in the form*of projections on each element, adapted to engage a side face on the beam on the element in question.
• the means according to the invention is primarily intended for use in connection with disc or box shaped elements which together are to form, or be a part of, a cover for a hatch aboard a vessel, but may be applied under all conditions wherein the sealing relation between two elements may be influenced if the two elemnts are positioned in exactly the same plane, being, by way of example, subjected to different static bendings between their supports.
• Figure 1 is a vertical sectional view taken at right angles to the element edges which face each other.
• Figure 2 is a view of the means as seen from below in Figure 1.
• 1 and 2 are the two cover elements, wherein sealing is to be provided between the elements even if they occupy the positions shown, with element 1 slightly dis ⁇ placed relatively to element 2.
• a means according to the invention comprises two beams 3 and 4 which are made with an angle
• OMPI shaped section with flanges 31,32 and 41,42, respectively.
• each of the two beams are hinged on to an element in _ brackets 5, see Fig. 2, at the ends, possibly also between the ends of the beams.
• each element 1,2 is provided with generally V-shaped projections 6 which are spaced along the length of the beam in question 3 and 4, respectively, which the lower flange 31 or 41, respectively, may engage, so that free rotation of the beam is limited.
• further projections 7 are spaced along the length of the beams, alternatively on the flanges 31 and 41.
• gaskets 8 and 9, respectively are provided on each of the two beam flanges 31 and 41, such gaskets being adapted sealingly to engage a plate 10 or 11, respectively on the two elements 1 and 2, respectively.
• Sealing between the flanges 32 and 42 of the beams 3 and 4, respectively, is obtained by means of a gasket 12 mounted on the side of the flange 32 which faces the flange 42, which gasket, when the elements 1 and 2 approach each other sealingly engages the flange 42.
• the gaskets 8,9 and 12 are shown as being similar, but this is no condition.
• a spacer 13 is secured to the beam 4, which spacer possibly may carry an angular member 14 which extends slightly obliquely longitudinally of the beam
