A sealing assembly (100) for forming a seal about an elongate object (10) includes a resilient seal member (130) and a loading mechanism (160) . The seal member includes an inner wall surface defining a channel (140) to receive the elongate object. The inner wall surface includes at least one annular rib (144) extending into the channel to engage the elongate object. The loading mechanism is adapted to selectively apply a compressive load to the seal member such that the inner wall surface is expanded inwardly to exert a sealing pressure on the elongate object.
L'invention concerne un élément d'étanchéité (100) permettant d'étanchéifier un objet allongé (10), qui comprend un élément d'étanchéité souple (130) et un mécanisme de charge (160). L'élément d'étanchéité se compose d'une surface de paroi interne définissant un canal (140) por recevoir l'objet allongé. La surface de la paroi interne contient au moins une nervure annulaire (144) se prolongeant dans le canal afin d'y introduire l'objet allongé. Le mécanisme de charge est conçu afin d'appliquer sélectivement une charge compressive sur l'élément d'étanchéité de manière à ce que la surface de la paroi interne s'étende vers l'intérieur permettant ainsi d'exercer une pression d'étanchéité sur l'objet allongé.
