Abstract
A seal for the rotating annular interface between a transmission input shaft and surrounding piston drum is uniquely configured as a single, integral part. A circular trough with two annular side walls is machined into the input shaft. The seal includes two annular side rings sized to contact the inside of the piston drum radially, and to contact the side walls of the trough axially. A bridging section joins the two side rails, and also preloads them into the trough side walls. Therefore, when hydraulic fluid is pumped between the side rails, it is prevented from leaking between the side rings and side walls and into the interface.
