#CMT# #/CMT# The boot has a pressure distribution unit (38) disposed in a broad radial zone (32) of a sealing lug defining a central axis. The distribution unit is adapted for distributing, along circumferential direction around the axis, pressure between the lug and a tulip (7) of a tripod joint, where the pressure is exerted by a locking unit (22) on the lug. The distribution unit overlaps in axial view with a transversal section of the tulip or the locking unit when the lug is at rest. #CMT# : #/CMT# An independent claim is also included for an assembly comprising a complementary element and a sealing boot. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Used for confining lubricant at transmission or constant velocity joint such as tripod joint, that connects two shafts. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The construction of the sealing boot permits to maintain less pressure difference between broad and thin radial zones of the sealing lug so that the boot presents an improved sealing. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows an enlarged view of a transmission joint. 7 : Tulip 22 : Locking unit 30 : Thin radial zone 32 : Broad radial zone 38 : Pressure distribution unit. |
