Abstract

Some example embodiments may relate to laterally moveable compressor piston rod lip seals. For example, a piston rod lip seal assembly may include a lip seal including a circumferential lip configured to seal an inner diameter of the lip seal. The piston rod lip seal assembly may be configured for lateral motion of a piston rod within a housing component, and the lateral motion may be perpendicular to an axis of the piston rod. The piston rod lip seal assembly may further include a heel, a circumferential outer ring, and a spring. The spring may be disposed between, and in contact with, the circumferential lip and the circumferential outer ring. The piston rod lip seal assembly may further include a wave spring configured for face contact with a housing component.
