ABSTRACT:
A sealing mechanism positioned between a movable piston wall and stationary cylinder wall concentric therewith. The sealing mechanism includes a circumferential groove formed in one of the concentric walls, and an O-ring positioned in the circumferential groove, the O-ring having a diameter less than the axial length of the groove and being compressed between a pair of opposing surfaces, a first surface formed integrally on the floor of the circumferential groove and a second surface formed integrally on one of the concentric walls. At least one of the pair of opposing surfaces has at least one upstanding serration for engaging the O-ring and forcing the O-ring to rotate when it moves from side to side in the circumferential groove.
