摘要

The plate-like or shell-like component (10), with a slot (16) for accommodating a sealing element, has the slot base (18) provided with a raised profile extending along the slot. Along the slot, the projection of the head of the sealing element beyond the sealing face is of unequal size. The slot width varies along the slot. The cross section of the sealing element is at least in essence constant along the slot.
