Abstract

A shaft seal having a lip of an elastomeric sealing ring formed with a frusto-conical band around the shaft and has an annular non-constant clearance around the shaft and wherein upon shaft rotation liquid pulsation in said clearance causes oscillation of the band which in turn causes displacement pumping towards the oil side of the shaft.
