Seal assembly

A seal assembly that includes a rotatable seal component, a non-rotatable seal component, and a plurality of pairs of flexures. The non-rotatable seal component is disposed facing the rotatable seal component. The plurality of pairs of flexures is spaced apart from each other along a circumferential direction of the seal assembly. Each pair of the plurality of pairs of flexures has a center line and includes a first flexure and a second flexure disposed in a stressed condition such that a portion of the first flexure and a portion of the second flexure are in contact with each other. Further, the first end of the first flexure is inclined at a first angle relative to the center line and a first end of the second flexure is inclined at a second angle relative to the center line. Also, first end of the first flexure and a first end of the second flexure are coupled to each other and to the non-rotatable seal component.
