Zusammenfassung: | A sealing arrangement is disclosed herein. The follower shaft extends within a housing to interface with the housing and senses rotational movement of a base shaft. The sealing arrangement includes a mount member and a seal member. The mount member includes a first end attached to the housing, a second end defining a seal-receiving portion, and an opening throughout. The follower shaft extends through the opening. The seal member has an outer perimeter portion that is adapted to engage with the seal receiving portion. The seal member has an inner resilient portion adapted to seal the perimeter of the follower shaft. The second end of the mount member is structured and arranged to resiliently deflect in correspondence with the resilient inner portion of the seal member. This limits the deflection of the resilient inner portion of the seal member in response to radial movement of the follower shaft. |
