Abstract

The present disclosure is related to a dirt ingress seal (100) for shock absorbers and front forks. The dirt ingress seal comprising a first lip (102a) that isolates the internal space of the seal (100) from the atmosphere and external environment; first ribs (105a) formed on the inner side of the circumferential surface of the dirt ingress seal (100), the first ribs (105a) formed near the first lip (102a); a second lip (102b) provided on the inner circumferential portion near the central region of the dirt ingress seal (100); second ribs (105b) defining cavities; and cavities defined by the first ribs (105a). The cavities are configured to arrest and trap mud, dust, dirt, and particulate matter entering the sealed zone and preventing further ingress of abrasive particles into the seal zone. The seal (100) increases the sealing effectiveness and useful life of seals, shock absorber, and front forks.

Abstract

The invention relates to the use of a composite material, comprising a backing layer and a liquid-absorbing layer fixed on the backing layer, the liquid-absorbing layer containing fixed superabsorbent particles, there being, on the side of the liquid-absorbing layer facing away from the backing layer, a liquid-distributing layer which is in liquid-conducting contact with the liquid-absorbing layer and absorbs and distributes, in the plane of the composite material, a liquid to be absorbed, for absorbing and distributing liquids in actively- and/or passively-cooled current-carrying systems—in particular, in actively- and/or passively-cooled energy storage systems.
