Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2016075258A1] A cable seal structure (10) for sealing a cable (12) within a duct (14) includes a pouch (16) configured to receive a pressurizing fluid for inflating the pouch (16) around the cable (12). The pouch (16) includes a valve structure (34) with a valve opening (32). The pouch (16) is configured such that when the pouch (16) is wrapped around the cable (12) ready for inflation, at least a portion (54) of the pouch (16) does not circumferentially extend all the way around the cable (12). At least a portion of the valve structure (34) overlaps with the portion (54) of the pouch (16) that does not extend circumferentially all the way around the cable (12).
