Piston with an encompassing seal

摘要

In a piston with an encompassing seal, which is seated slidably in a cylindrical receiving bore of a structural part such as a housing block and which can be acted upon by pressure on at least one end, the piston is intended to have a shoulder for receiving the seal. This shoulder divides a cylindrical running face of the piston of a segment having a jacket face, and a groove is formed into the jacket face for receiving a ring that secures the seal in the axial direction and also acts as a stripper ring protecting the sealing ring.
