Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The invention relates to an arrangement for sealing line interfaces in a motor vehicle in which lines from an engine compartment of the motor vehicle are led into a vehicle interior, wherein the engine compartment is separated from the vehicle interior by a partition which has an opening, through which the lines are led, and the opening is closed on the vehicle interior side by a seal, which is fastened to a functional unit arranged in the vehicle interior. In order to enable a reliable sealing function despite the assembly tolerance to be compensated, a flange of the functional unit that bears the seal can be moved relative to the functional unit, or the seal is movably arranged on the flange, which is rigidly fastened to the functional unit.
