Abstract

A fluid line component with a fluid duct, a sealing surface which surrounds the outlet of the fluid duct on an outer side of the fluid line component, and an axial seal which bears against the sealing surface and can be brought to bear against an opposite surface of a mating piece in order to connect the fluid duct leaktightly to a duct in the mating piece. The axial seal has a support and a sealing element which is assembled on the support, wherein the support can be displaced relative to the sealing surface. The invention also relates to an assembly with such a fluid line component, wherein the fluid line component is a hydraulic pump and the mating piece is a receptacle in a housing of a fluid storage tank.

Claims (20)

1 . Fluid line component with a fluid duct, a sealing surface which surrounds the outlet of the fluid duct on an outer side of the fluid line component, and an axial seal which bears against the sealing surface and can be brought to bear against an opposite surface of a mating piece in order to connect the fluid duct leaktightly to a duct in the mating piece, wherein the axial seal has a support and a sealing element which is assembled on the support, wherein the support can be displaced relative to the sealing surface.

2 . Fluid line component according to claim 1 , wherein the sealing surface is arranged recessed in an end side of the fluid line component.

3 . Fluid line component according to claim 1 , wherein the sealing surface is arranged at a projecting connection piece of the fluid line component.

4 . Fluid line component according to claim 1 , wherein the sealing element is pre-assembled on the sealing surface.

5 . Fluid line component according to claim 4 , wherein the sealing element is fastened behind a holding element which is provided on the fluid line component, in particular is clamped or is engaged behind an undercut.

6 . Fluid line component according to claim 1 , wherein the support is annular.

7 . Fluid line component according to claim 1 , wherein at least one outer edge of the support is configured so that it is bevelled or rounded on a side facing the sealing element.

8 . Fluid line component according to claim 1 , wherein the fluid duct is a suction duct and the support is arranged inside the sealing element.

9 . Fluid line component according to claim 1 , wherein the fluid duct is a pressure duct and the support is arranged outside the sealing element.

10 . Fluid line component according to claim 1 , wherein the sealing element is annular and has two sealing lips which protrude radially at axially opposite ends of the sealing element.

11 . Fluid line component according to claim 10 , wherein the sealing lips project axially from the support.

12 . Assembly with a fluid line component according to claim 1 , wherein the fluid line component is a hydraulic pump and the mating piece a receptacle in a housing of a fluid storage tank.

13 . Fluid line component according to claim 2 , wherein the sealing element is pre-assembled on the sealing surface.

14 . Fluid line component according to claim 2 , wherein the support is annular.

15 . Fluid line component according to claim 2 , wherein at least one outer edge of the support is configured so that it is bevelled or rounded on a side facing the sealing element.

16 . Fluid line component according to claim 2 , wherein the fluid duct is a suction duct and the support is arranged inside the sealing element.

17 . Fluid line component according to claim 2 , wherein the fluid duct is a pressure duct and the support is arranged outside the sealing element.

18 . Fluid line component according to claim 2 , wherein the sealing element is annular and has two sealing lips which protrude radially at axially opposite ends of the sealing element.

19 . Assembly with a fluid line component according to claim 2 , wherein the fluid line component is a hydraulic pump and the mating piece a receptacle in a housing of a fluid storage tank.

20 . Fluid line component according to claim 3 , wherein the sealing element is pre-assembled on the sealing surface.
