Method of Securing a Sealing Device to a Housing with a Limited Bore Diameter

摘要

An apparatus including a seal and a grounding ring along with methods for securing such an apparatus to the housing of a motor. The apparatus comprises an electrically conductive stator including a groove formed in a face thereof. A rotor mates with the stator, wherein the rotor includes a seal groove formed around an inner radius thereof and further comprising a rotor seal disposed in the seal groove. A seal ring is interposed between the stator and the rotor. The stator engages the seal ring around an inner circumference of the seal ring and the rotor engages the seal ring around an outer circumference of the seal ring. A grounding ring is interposed between the stator and the rotor, wherein the grounding ring is electrically coupled to the stator. An electrically conductive adhesive is included for application into the groove and onto the face.
