Abstract:
1. A system for contactlessly sealing a rotably mounted shaft from a housing, an interior of the housing being at least partially fillable with lubricating oil, comprising: a centrifugal disk connected to the shaft in torsionally fixed manner and having bores that at least partially extend in a radial manner so that lubricating oil from a centrifugal chamber is conveyable into a catch basin at least partially surrounding the centrifugal disk, the bores adapted to discharge into the centrifugal chamber via end regions located radially on an inside, and to discharge into the catch basin via end regions located radially on an outside; a gap region arranged between the centrifugal disk and a flange part of the housing, the gap region connecting the centrifugal chamber to the catch basin, a bore adapted to discharge into the gap region, the gap region adapted to discharge into a further catch basin area via another end region, so that lubricating oil flung into the further catch basin area from a centrifugal edge connected to the shaft in torsionally fixed manner catchable and conveyable to the gap region through the bore; a gap region connecting the further catch basin area to the centrifugal chamber; and a dust guard sealed with respect to the flange part by a labyrinth seal and arranged on the shaft.
