Patent ID: 8770675

Claim:
A sealing assembly configured to seal a space between first and second parts that are pivotable relative to each other, comprising: an elastic ring having a sealing lip configured to statically and sealingly abut on a portion of the first part, a sealing ring having a sealing edge configured to sealingly abut on a sliding surface of the second part, and a supporting ring interleaved between the elastic ring and the sealing ring, the supporting ring being fixedly connected with the elastic ring, and wherein at least one of: (a) the sealing ring is pivotable relative to the supporting ring, (b) the elastic ring, the supporting ring and the sealing ring are configured such that a pivoting movement of the first part relative to the second part results in a first pivoting movement of the sealing edge relative to the sliding surface and a second pivoting movement of the sealing ring relative to the supporting ring, and (c) the sealing ring slidably abuts on a contact surface of the supporting ring.
