Zusammenfassung: | An annular, inflatable tube for installation between inner and outer members having a joint at which the tube can be split for installation around the inner member where it is difficult to slide a seal over the member. The ends of the tube are closed and beveled to overlap. A stretchable sleeve fits over the ends of the tube at the joint and has circumferential ribs inside the sleeve for engagement with circumferential grooves in the end portions of the tube. Reinforcing cords in the tube wall and in the sleeve are arranged so as to control expansion for sealing the space between the inner and outer members without increasing or decreasing the length of the tube. |
