Early radial shaft seals utilized rawhide as the sealing element, and many present-day elastomeric seal companies were once tanneries. The advent of modern elastomers replaced rawhide, industry also added a garter spring , which helps the sealing lip compensate for lip wear and elastomer material changes.
Inflatable seal Seals that inflate and deflate in three basic directions of operation: the axial direction, the radial-in direction, and the radial-out direction. Each of these inflation directions has their own set of performance parameters for measurements such as the height of inflation and the center-line bend radius that the seal can ...
In mechanical engineering, an end-face mechanical seal (often shortened to mechanical seal) is a type of seal used in rotating equipment, such as pumps, mixers, blowers, and compressors. When a pump operates, the liquid could leak out of the pump between the rotating shaft and the stationary pump casing. Since the shaft rotates, preventing this ...
A garter spring inside a rubber seal. A garter spring is a coiled steel spring that is connected at each end to create a circular shape, and is used in oil seals, shaft seals, belt-driven motors, and electrical connectors. Compression garter springs exert outward radial forces, while extension garter springs exert inward radial forces.
Some large turboprop engines, such as the original Bristol Proteus and the modern TP400 have free turbines. The TP400 is a three-shaft design, with two compressor turbines and a separate power turbine. Where the turbine is at the rear of the engine, a turboprop engine requires a long drive shaft forwards to the propeller reduction gearbox. Such ...

[4] Hoover lived very much like a family dog and even accompanied George riding into town with his head poking out of the window. [3]
