Title:
ELECTRICALLY CONDUCTIVE SEALING ASSEMBLY, AND ASSEMBLY HAVING TWO MACHINE ELEMENTS SEALED OFF WITH RESPECT TO ONE ANOTHER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/166043
Kind Code:
A9
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a sealing assembly (04) for sealing off a space (07) between a first machine element (02) and a second machine element (03) that is movable in relation to the first machine element (02). The first and the second machine element (02, 03) are arranged concentrically to each other. The sealing assembly comprises a seal (05) with a seal seat (10) that can be fixed on the first machine element (02) and with a sealing lip (12) having a sealing edge (13) that bears against the second machine element (03) when the seal (05) is in the installed state. According to the invention, the sealing assembly is distinguished in that it also comprises a conductive element (14) which, in order to produce an electrically conductive connection between the first and the second machine element (02, 03), extends from the first machine element (02) to the second machine element (03) and is mechanically connected at least in some sections to the side of the seal (05) facing away from the space (07) to be sealed off. The conductive element (14) consists of an electrically conductive fibrous fabric embedded in an elastomer matrix.
