A wiper seal for preventing leakage of oil between advance and retard chambers formed between rotor vanes and stator lobes in a vane-type camshaft phaser is a monolithic structure made from a single material that includes a wiper element and a compressible spring element extending from the wiper element.
The spring element is designed as a cantilevered arm and provides a sealing pressure to the wiper element. The wiper seal may further include a rib element as part of the monolithic structure that vertically extends the wiper element towards the spring element. The rib element assists in preventing over-compression of the cantilevered arm and in preventing tangling of a plurality of wiper seals during handling and shipping.
The wiper seal is provided at the tip of each rotor vane and/or stator lobe of a vane-type camshaft phaser for varying the timing of combustion valves in an internal combustion engine.
