ABSTRACT:
A pressurized bearing seal which uses pressurized air (1) to expand a sealing member which surrounds a shaft supported by the bearing to create a seal between the shaft and bearing, and (2) for an air purge from the bearing along the shaft to prevent intake of foreign particles into the bearing along the shaft. A ring assembly, which is secured to the bearing, surrounds the expandable member and has a conduit formed therein for purging or bleeding pressurized air along the shaft to the atmosphere.
