Sealing arrangement and pump having a sealing arrangement

1. A sealing arrangement for placement between two components which have a planar contact surface, comprising:

a first elongate flexible sealing element which comprises a first start region and a first end region; and

a first termination element which is configured to carry out a sealing function;

wherein the first sealing element and the first termination element are configured so that they have a first overlap region in the first end region of the first sealing element and thus form a first continuous sealing edge,

wherein the first sealing element is displaceable relative to the first termination element so that the first sealing edge is maintained during a displacement of the first end region of the first sealing element in the direction of the first start region within the first overlap region; and

wherein the first termination element has a first curvature and the first sealing element contacts the first termination element along the first curvature in a pressure-free state.

2. The sealing arrangement in accordance with claim 1 , wherein a side surface of the first termination element oriented in the direction of the first sealing element has a contour corresponding to an outer contour of the first sealing element.

3. The sealing arrangement in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the first termination element and the first sealing element are configured so that the first sealing element abuts at the first termination element with a first end surface in a pressure-free state.

4. The sealing arrangement in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the first sealing element is disposed in a first groove.

5. The sealing arrangement in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the first termination element is disposed in a first cut-out.

6. The sealing arrangement in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the first termination element is configured to receive at least a second elongate flexible sealing element in analogy to the first elongate flexible sealing element.

7. A pump, comprising a divided housing comprising a first housing part and a second housing part, and a sealing arrangement in accordance with claim 1 disposed between the first housing part and the second housing part.

8. The pump in accordance with claim 7 , wherein:

the housing is divided in a longitudinal direction at the level of a drive shaft;

a low pressure region at a first side of the drive shaft is sealed off with regard to an environment by means of the first elongate flexible sealing element;

the low-pressure region is sealed off with regard to a high-pressure region at a second side of the drive shaft by means of a second elongate flexible sealing element,

the high-pressure region is sealed off with regard to the environment by means of a third elongate flexible sealing element; and

the first termination element receives the first, second, and third sealing elements.

9. The pump in accordance with claim 8 , wherein the curvature of the termination element is open in the direction of the pressure region having the higher of the two pressures present at each of the sealing elements.

10. The pump in accordance with claim 8 , further comprising:

a second termination element which receives the first sealing element, wherein the second termination element is disposed between the low-pressure region and the environment; and

a third termination element which receives the third sealing element, wherein the third termination element is disposed between the high-pressure region and the environment.

11. The pump in accordance with claim 7 , further comprising a second termination element which receives the first sealing element.
