ABSTRACT:
A liquid flow tube extends through an anti-friction bearing so that the tube can rotate around its axis while liquid is flowing through the tube interior space. A dynamic seal is arranged between the outer cylindrical surface of the tube and a stationary sleeve structure. Preferred sealing material is rope-like packing helically wound within an annular recess in the sleeve structure; an annular piston extends into the recess to apply force onto the packing for preventing any leakage across the packing interfaces (at the sleeve or tube surfaces).
