Embodiment Construction

[0030] The following description is merely illustrative in nature and is not intended to limit the disclosure, application or uses.

[0031] Referring now to the drawings, a wedge gasket embodying the principles of the invention is shown in figure 1 and 2 is shown in and referenced 10 . The wedge seal gasket includes a carrier 12 having an inner bore 13 , a first wedge seal 14 and a second wedge seal 16 . The bracket 12 can be a single unit or member, or the bracket 12 can include a first member 12a and a second member 12b. The single or two-piece member can be formed by, for example, stamping, machining or any other suitable process. Further, the two members 12a and 12b can be welded together. The first wedge seal 14 and the second wedge seal 16 are both frusto-conical in shape and are mounted concentrically around the bracket 12 or around the first member 12a and the second member 12b, respectively. Bracket 12 (or members 12a and 12b) can be made of metal, such as alumi...

Abstract

A wedge seal gasket comprising, a carrier, a first wedge seal mounted around the carrier and a second wedge seal mounted around the carrier. The first wedge seal forms a seal with a first housing and the second wedge seal forms a seal with a second housing.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to wedge sealing gaskets. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to gaskets that form a wedge-shaped seal between two transmission components to seal off high pressure hydraulic fluid. Background technique [0002] The statements in this section merely provide background information related to the present disclosure and may or may not constitute prior art. [0003] In many transmissions, O-rings are often placed between two mating components to form a seal. However, such seals are sensitive to surface finish and clamping load. Accordingly, there is a need for gaskets with improved sealing properties. Contents of the invention [0004] The wedge seal gasket includes a bracket, a first wedge seal mounted around the bracket, and a second wedge seal mounted around the bracket. The first wedge seal forms a seal with the first housing and the second wedge seal forms a seal with the second housing. [0005] Fur...
