TRAILER DOOR SEAL

摘要

A sealing system seals the perimeter of insulated hinged double doors. The sealing system includes first and second exterior seals made of a monolithic, resilient and elastically deformable material. The first exterior seal has an elongated lobe for contacting the exterior of said door, and both of the first and second exterior seals have an interior lobe which contact one another when the doors are closed. The sealing system further includes first and second inner seals made of a monolithic, resilient and elastically deformable material, each having a pair of spaced-apart sealing lobes. The inner seals are mounted to respective doors in a staggered fashion, such that the respective pairs of sealing lobes interact with one another to create a redundant, weather-resistant and thermally robust seal when the double doors are closed.

1. A sealing system for sealing a space between a pair of hinged doors, said sealing system comprising:
a first inner seal having a first inner lobe and a first outer lobe defining a first lobe receiving space therebetween; and a second inner seal having a second inner lobe and a second outer lobe defining a second lobe receiving space therebetween, the first lobe receiving space sized to receive the second outer lobe such that the second outer lobe sealingly abuts the first inner lobe and the first outer lobe, and the second lobe receiving space sized to receive the first inner lobe such that the first inner lobe sealingly abuts the second inner lobe and the second outer lobe, whereby the first inner seal and the second inner seal are arrangeable in a staggered fashion to form a redundant, weather-resistant and thermally robust seal in a space between two doors.
