There is also a problem that when the pressure on the mounting side of the seal body 103 becomes negative, the seal body 103 may come off. That is, the bearing 102 has the stop ring 107 and the housing 100
, The press-fitting assembly position of the bearing 102 is fixed, but the seal body 103 is not integrated with the bearing 102 by baking, so that the seal body 103 is located between the outer diameter of the seal body 103 and the inner diameter of the housing 100. Even if the interference is provided, if the mounting side of the seal body 103 (for example, the oil side to be sealed by the seal body 103) is under negative pressure, or if the shaft reciprocates repeatedly, the arrow A in FIG. In the direction, there is a possibility that the seal body 103 may come off.
