摘要:
An automotive glazing (1) having a mounting strip (3) for mounting a glazing component (2) attached adjacent at least one edge thereof is disclosed. The mounting strip (3) comprises at least one ridge (6, 6a, 6b) positioned in contact with the glazing (1) such that the majority of the mounting strip is spaced apart from the glazing, forming a cavity. The mounting strip is bonded to a major face of the glazing by an adhesive material (8) in contact with at least a portion of the mounting strip, and positioned such that it does not overlap the edge of the glazing. The ridge, the mounting strip end and the major face of the glazing to which the strip is bonded form a cavity (9) having an open end facing the edge of the glazing, the cavity being dimensioned to receive a portion of said glazing component.

The invention relates to a shaped seal (10) for sealing a power-operated closing device (25) comprising a jam-protection zone (32) which has at least two electrically conductive areas (19, 20) situated at a distance from each other. According to the invention, to save space and reduce weight and cost the carrier (17) is used as a metallic conductor for the conductive area (20) so as to reduce volume resistance. Alternatively or in addition thereto a frame can be used to which the shaped seal (10) can be fixed.

A sealing strip, such as for fitting to the frame of a door opening in a motor vehicle body, comprises a longitudinally extending channel-shaped mounting portion (8) incorporating a channel-shaped reinforcing carrier (20). A hollow tubular longitudinally extending sealing portion (10) is attached to the outside of the mounting portion (8). When such a strip is bent to follow curves in the door frame, the increased tension in the mounting portion (8) at the curves may cause the sealing portion (10) to move inwardly of the curve into the position shown in the dotted line. In order to avoid this, the sealing strip, and particularly the mounting portion (8), is longitudinally compressed at positions corresponding to the positions where curves are to be formed in the strip. This local longitudinal compression helps to maintain the sealing portion (10) in its correct attitude.

A kiss seal (42) of C-shaped cross section is provided. The kiss seal (42) includes a first leg (54), a second leg (56), and an arcuate middle portion (46) extending therebetween. The first leg (54) includes a contact surface (24') positioned adjacent a separable flange (28). The second leg (56) is attached to an opposed attachment flange (18) using a face plate (20') and a number of screws (22). The second leg (56) is generally located directly beneath the first leg (54). During sealing use, the arcuate middle portion (46) extends greater-than-180 degrees and is located outboard of one or both flange outboard edges (31). This provides a resultant force vector (58) that acts to enhance sealing. The greater the pressure (P) on the arcuate middle portion (46), the greater the force vector components available to promote sealing.

摘要:
Shrimp and other food products carried on a plastic modular conveyor belt (15) are efficiently cooked at atmospheric pressure in the presence of saturated steam protected by a confining receptacle from dilution by insulating air. The steam condenses by transfer of cooking energy, the condensate dropping downwardly in the receptacle by gravity. By passing products through the constant 212 degree F saturated steam zone residing at the upper portion of the cooking receptacle, the belt speed and distance through a modular cooking compartment control the cooking time for uniform production. The steam is replenished through a proportional flow valve (50A) to replace only that amount of steam expended in cooking. Thus, temperature is sensed at a cooler position under the saturated steam cooking zone where temperature is typically 190-200 degrees to detect variations of the amount of steam condensed in exchange of heat in cooking the product, and to proportionately control the flow of replacement saturated steam. Critical control of cooking receptacle rejection of contaminating air maintains a substantially static pure saturated steam layer in the upper portion. The lower portion contains lower temperature air/vapor mixture. The access doors (29,30) are sealed by an expandable gasket tube (108). This permits simplified fully automatic steam replenishment and efficient cooking without losses of energy from either excessive steam flow, dilution of saturated steam cooking efficiency from air or fluid vapors admitted into the cooking receptacle or losses at the doors (29,30).

This invention relates to a magnetic gasket particularly suitable for forming a seal between a fixed part and an openable part in regions of curvilinear extension, for example in particular between the body and door (3) of a vehicle, of the type comprising an profiled strip (4) for fixing to said parts and a tubular seat housing (10) a magnetized insert (11), characterised in that said profiled fixing strip (4) and said tubular seat (8) for the magnetized insert (11) are connected together by an extendable deformable tubular chamber (10) the opposing free walls (12,13) of which are substantially curvilinear and curved in the same direction.
摘要:
An apparatus and method for preventing damage to overlapping cowl side edges (23, 25) in the event the cowls (3, 4) are closed in the wrong order. The underlapping edge (23) has a cut-out region (22) that is sufficiently large to permit at least a portion (11) of the overlapping edge (23) to pass therethrough if the cowls (3, 4) are closed in the wrong sequence. A flexible, fireproof seal (24) extends across the cut-out region (22), and maintains firewall integrity between the cowls (3, 4). The seal (24) is sufficiently flexible so as to not impede passage of the overlapping edge portion (11) through the cut-out region (22).
