Zusammenfassung: | A seal assembly is provided for sealing a space between a housing and a shaft, the housing having a bore with centerline and the shaft being disposed within the bore and rotatable about a central axis. The seal assembly includes an annular rotary seal member coupled with the shaft and having a radial rotary sealing surface. An annular static seal member is coupled with the housing, disposed about the shaft and has a radial static sealing surface disposed against the rotary sealing surface so as to prevent passage of substances between the two sealing surfaces. The rotary sealing surface is slideable against the static sealing surface as the shaft rotates about the axis and the static member is movable with respect to the housing such that the rotary and static sealing surfaces are substantially juxtaposed when the shaft axis defines an acute angle with respect to the housing centerline. |
