Abstract:
1. A seal disposed in a vertical frame profile of one of a stationary door leaf, a movable door leaf, and a stationary wall, said seal comprising an elastic sealing profile extending longitudinally along a longitudinal axis of the frame profile and protruding from a front side of the frame profile, the sealing profile comprising: a first web abutting and connected to the frame profile; a first wall which merges into said first web and said first wall together with said first web enclose a longitudinal hollow space, said first wall having a cross-sectional shape forming a portion of an ellipse and is arranged so that a minor axis of the ellipse intersects the first wall in an area that is outside of the frame profile; a deformation chamber defined at least partially by a walling and extending longitudinally through the sealing profile in the longitudinal hollow space, a side of the deformation chamber facing the frame profile being delimited by said first web; and at least two second webs each arranged on a respective side of a major axis of the ellipse and supporting the first wall, said at least two second webs intersecting each other approximately at a center of the ellipse and abut the walling of said deformation chamber so as to transmit forces acting upon said first wall to said deformation chamber via said at least two second webs; wherein the entire cross-sectional shape of said first wall forms the portion of the ellipse.
