Abstract

A rotary seal assembly has a first and second machine element spaced apart forming a sealing gap. The first machine element has a seal-holding structure and the second machine element a sealing surface. A rotary seal is held on the seal-holding structure of the first machine element which has a sealing lip, the front side of which faces the sealing surface and at least partially abuts the sealing surface of the second machine element, pretensioned in a dynamically sealing manner. The sealing lip has pockets on its rear side or on its end face facing the high pressure side. The sealing lip on its rear side, in the case of rearwardly arranged pockets, is tensioned against the sealing surface by an elastically deformable pretensioning ring, and is tensioned in the case of the front side pockets by an elastic resilience inherent in the material of the rotary seal.
