Title: Dieter Fuchs: Innovator in Sealing Technology
Introduction
Dieter Fuchs is a notable inventor based in Riedstadt, Germany. He has made significant contributions to the field of sealing technology, particularly with his innovative designs for radially-sealing rings. With a total of 6 patents to his name, Fuchs has established himself as a key figure in the industry.
Latest Patents
Fuchs's latest patents include a shaft and radially-sealing ring with a cold flexed seal disk. This invention features a sealing element made of non-elastomeric plastic, preferably PTFE. The design includes a planar, annular disk with plane-parallel surfaces, which is held at its outer circumference in a stiffening ring. The disk is cold flexed in the axial direction to form a cuff at its inner circumference, engaging the shaft with bias. The disk's thickness ranges from 0.3 to 0.8 mm, and its inside diameter is approximately 1.5 to 7 times its thickness less than the diameter of the shaft. The distance between the shaft and the line about the stiffening ring is 2 to 7 times the thickness of the disk. This radially-sealing ring is particularly useful for sealing the crankshaft of a two-cycle engine.
Another of his patents involves a similar concept, where the inside of a planar, annular disk with a thickness of about 0.8 to 2 mm is cold flexed into a cylindrical sealing stub around a shaft. The inside diameter of the disk before cold flexing is from about 1 to 6 times the thickness of the disk less than the diameter of the shaft. A stiffening ring is sealingly attached around the outside of the disk, ensuring effective sealing.
