Patents Air conditioner wiring seal Applicant: Springer Carrier Ltda, Brazil This invention relates to the sealing of air conditioners particularly to inhibit water penetration between different sections of the unit. A problem exists that hard-wiring is routed through spaces that provide paths for water to move between the components and a sealant is often used. This patent provides a removable and re-attachable seal that inhibits water from penetrating between sections of an air conditioner Publication number: WO/2008/077206 Inventors: R. Silva et al. Publication date: 3 July 2008
Pipe joint, refrigerating device, and heat pump water warming device Applicant: Daikin Industries, Ltd. Japan Unfortunately the English abstract is not overhelpful. A pipe joint connector is shown and according to the description it is rounded so that it may not be held by a tool. However, torque is applied and there also appears to be a bite type olive that is initially connected to the nut but shears off as the joint is tightened.

simplified and economical method of sealing between the diaphragm and stem of a process valve pneumatic actuator. Typical methods use a relatively complex and expensive arrangement of washers, O-rings, and specialized components. The patented method provides an annular protrusion on the diaphragm close to the centre location hole. This matches with a groove in the shoulder on the actuator stem to provide a seal.

Container with seal Applicant: Ropak Corp. USA An improved design of container with a seal film cover is described. It is designed to overcome the typical problems that occur once the protective film is broken. Products such as coffee may become damp, and others such as wet wipes can dry out. This container lid includes a secondary seal so that the contents are better protected after the film is broken. Publication number: WO/2008/079786 Inventor: F. Luburic Publication date: 3 July 2008
Inflatable face seal for a respiratory mask and method of producing same Applicant: Ambu A/S, Denmark
Bearing suspension abutment, bearing housing and sealing gasket Applicant: S.N.R. Roulements, France The invention relates to a suspension mounting unit such as the top mounting of a McPherson strut. It is particularly concerned with providing both improved bearing and good protection against contaminant ingress without excessive friction. A number of potential designs of sealing lips and external labyrinth passages are illustrated as part of the bearing design. Publication number: WO/2008/081122 Inventors: L. Lebrun Damiens et al.

Gasket with inner plate having embossing Applicant: Dongah Manufacturing Corp. Korea The cylinder head gasket described in this patent is intended to provide improved ability to cater for the separation of the cylinder head and block during the combustion stroke. The inner plate has a series of embossments, which may have different heights. The purpose is to compensate for differences in dimensions of gaps in a cylinder head attributable to lift-up force. The embossment may have a conical shape and also a planar peak part to increase the area to which surface pressure is applied. They may also be in one or more rows to increase the area to which surface pressure is applied. Publication number: WO/2008/082023 Inventor: K.-N. Koo Publication date: 10 July 2008
