Further, a second cylindrical portion 9 which is bent upward is formed on the outer peripheral edge portion (right edge portion in FIG. 4) of the outer ring 3. At the time of assembling the thrust bearing, the second cylindrical portion 9 is located outside the first cylindrical portion 7 (on the right side in FIG. 4). Since the inner diameter of the second cylindrical portion 9 is larger than the outer diameter of the first cylindrical portion 7, the inner peripheral surface (left surface in FIG. 4) of the second cylindrical portion 9 is assembled in the assembled thrust bearing. A minute gap is interposed between the outer peripheral surface (the right surface in FIG. 4) of the first cylindrical portion 7. Therefore, the relative rotation between the inner ring 2 and the outer ring 3 is free.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In the case of the conventional thrust bearing with a seal constructed as described above, it is desired to improve the following points. First, in the case of the first example of the conventional structure shown in FIG. 4, the seal lip of the seal material 11 forming the seal ring 12 projects only upward, and does not project downward. Therefore, for example, the possibility that rainwater may enter between the upper surface of the upper spring seat 1 and the lower surface of the outer ring 3 cannot be denied. Generally, these two surfaces are in contact with each other over a wide area, and the surface pressure is considerably high. Therefore, it is unlikely that rainwater or the like that has entered between these two surfaces will enter the inside of the thrust bearing. However, due to the widespread use of high-pressure car wash machines in recent years, sufficient consideration should be given to preventing the entry of rainwater or the like between the upper surface of the upper spring seat 1 and the lower surface of the outer ring 3. ing.

In the case of the second example of the conventional structure shown in FIG. 5, not only is rainwater prevented from entering between the upper surface of the inner ring 2 and the lower surface of the mating member, but also the upper spring seat 1 (FIG. 4). Since it is possible to prevent rainwater from entering between the upper surface and the lower surface of the outer ring 3,
The above problems do not occur. However, it is difficult to secure sufficient bonding strength between the seal ring 12a, which is made of only elastic material, and the core metal is omitted, and the seal ring 12a falls off during transportation or during assembly work. there is a possibility. If the inner peripheral surface of the seal ring 12a and the outer peripheral surface of the second cylindrical portion 9 are adhered to each other, such a problem will be eliminated, but degreasing of the outer peripheral surface of the second cylindrical portion 9, application of an adhesive, and the like will be troublesome. This is not preferable because it requires work and causes an increase in manufacturing cost of the thrust bearing with seal.

In order to address such a problem, the structure shown in FIG. 4 and the structure shown in FIG. 5 are combined as shown in FIG. 6, and the first and second seal lips are provided on the outer peripheral surface of the cored bar 10. 17
It is conceivable to use the seal ring 12b to which the seal material 11a having a and 18a is attached. However, if the structures shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 are simply combined, it is not always possible to sufficiently prevent the seal ring 12b from falling off.
That is, in order to surely prevent the seal ring 12b having the core metal 10 and the outer ring 3 from being separated from each other, simply fitting the third cylindrical portion 19 of the core metal 10 onto the second cylindrical portion 9 is performed. Is insufficient. By squeezing the end portion (the lower end portion in FIG. 6) of the third cylindrical portion 19 inward in the diametrical direction, the crimped portion is crimped to the curved portion 20 existing at the base end portion of the second cylindrical portion 9. 21 need to be formed. And this caulking part 2
1 and the inward flange-shaped bent portion 22 formed at the one end edge of the third cylindrical portion 19, the second cylindrical portion 9 is sandwiched from both sides in the axial direction.
The separation between b and the outer ring 3 can be reliably prevented.

However, in the case of the structure shown in FIG. 6 in which the structures shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 are simply combined, the jig 23 for forming the caulked portion 21 and the sealing material 11a are formed. The part (the second seal lip 18a part) interferes with each other and the caulking portion 21 cannot be formed. The thrust bearing with seal of the present invention was invented in view of such circumstances.
