シール性能の向上を計つたオイルシールを提供す
ることを目的とする。[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention relates to the improvement of oil seals, and more specifically, the invention relates to the improvement of oil seals, and more specifically, to the oil seal that constitutes the rotating side member of the seal part, the oil seal is designed to maintain a stable dynamic interference at all times and improve seal performance. The purpose is to provide a seal.

されるように構成されている。 The sealing member of this type of oil seal, which is generally made of synthetic rubber, has an annular lip portion, and the inner circumferential end of the lip portion and the outer circumferential surface of the opposing fixing member slide against each other to seal fluid. In order to increase the stability, the inner diameter of the lip part is formed in advance to be slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the fixed member, which is the member to be inserted, and a tightening ring such as a coil spring is attached to the outer circumferential surface of the lip part. is configured to be tightened to apply a tension force to the fixing member.

た。 However, in conventional oil seals, due to the generation of centrifugal force caused by sliding rotation, as the rotational speed increases, the dynamic interference of the lip portion with respect to the fixing member gradually decreases, and eventually the lip member There is a risk that the seal may separate from the opposing fixing member and cause seal failure. FIG. 1 shows this process graphically. To address this drawback, there have been some conventional constructions in which an excessive initial tightening allowance is given to the lip portion to leave an appropriate dynamic tightening allowance during normal rotation, but when rotating at low speeds, The frictional resistance of the sliding part becomes excessive,
There was a problem in that the lip portion was prematurely worn.

優れたものとなる。 In view of the above points, the present invention provides a stopper member on the outer periphery of the lip portion to prevent the lip portion from expanding due to centrifugal force caused by sliding rotation, and the oil retains an appropriate dynamic interference at all times. It is intended to provide a seal. The oil seal of the present invention is equipped with the above-mentioned stopper member, and as shown in the graph of Fig. 2, it maintains the dynamic interference with respect to the opposing fixed member regardless of the increase in rotational speed, and has excellent sealing performance. becomes.

Reference numeral 1 denotes a metal annular case having a substantially L-shaped cross section, and an annular synthetic rubber sealing member 4 is vulcanized and bonded to the inner edge 2 of the annular case 1.
The sealing member 4 is integrally formed with a lip portion 5, and the inner circumferential end 6 of the lip portion 5 constitutes a sliding portion with respect to an opposing fixing member (not shown). A tightening ring 8 made of a coil spring is fastened to the outer circumferential surface 7 of the lip portion 5, and applies a tightening force to the lip portion 5 against the opposing fixing member. 9
is a stopper member made of a metal ring having a substantially U-shaped cross section, and has an outer ring part 10 fixed to the outer ring part 3 of the annular case 1 by caulking, and an inner ring part 11 bent in the axial direction. , a slight gap a is provided between the inner ring portion 11 and the tightening ring 8.

されて確実に流体をシールする。 The oil seal having the above structure is inserted into and fixed to a rotating member of various sealing devices, and is driven by the rotating member, and the inner circumferential end 6 of the lip portion 5 and the opposing fixing member having a shaft shape slide and rotate. The sliding portion is first provided with a sufficient tightening allowance by the tightening ring 8 when the rotation is stopped, thereby reliably sealing the fluid.

体シールを行なうことができる。 When the rotation starts and the number of rotations gradually increases, the lip portion 5 of the seal member 4 gradually expands due to the centrifugal force accompanying the rotation, but the inner peripheral end 6 of the lip portion 5 gradually expands.
Before separating from the outer circumferential surface of the opposing fixing member,
The tightening ring 8 comes into contact with the inner ring portion 11 of the stopper member 9 to restrict the expansion of the lip portion 5 beyond this state. It is desirable to leave a dynamic interference margin with respect to the fixing member in the lip portion 5 of the seal member 4 in this state, and the inner diameter value of the inner ring portion 11 of the stopper member 9 is set to
shall be calculated and set in advance to a value that maintains an appropriate dynamic interference. As a result, as shown in FIG. 2, the oil seal having the above structure can maintain an appropriate dynamic interference at all times to provide reliable fluid sealing.

効果を発揮し得るものである。 Next, FIG. 4 shows a second embodiment of the present invention. Only the parts corresponding to the first embodiment will be explained. The stopper member 9a of the oil seal of this embodiment has a semicircular arc shape in cross section. The ring body is a metal ring body having a similar shape, and is fitted onto the outer periphery of the tightening ring 8. Although the oil seal with this configuration does not have a gap between the tightening ring 8 and the stopper member 9a compared to the first embodiment, it does not prevent the lip portion 5 of the seal member 4 from expanding due to centrifugal force. By providing the lip portion 5 with an appropriate dynamic interference with respect to the opposing fixing member, it is possible to exhibit an excellent sealing effect similar to the oil seal of the first embodiment.

することとなる。 As explained above, according to the present invention, the expansion of the lip portion is regulated by the stopper member.
It never happens that the lip part separates from the fixed member as the rotational speed increases. Furthermore, when the fixing member is inserted, the inner circumferential surface of the stopper member comes into contact with the tightening ring, so that even if the rotational speed increases, the lip portion will not expand any more than when it is stopped. Therefore, a constant dynamic interference is always ensured from low speed to high speed, resulting in excellent sealing performance.
また、固定部材が挿入されるとストツパ部材の
両開口縁部は合成ゴム製シール部材と接触するの
で、緊締環はストツパ部材によつて完全に覆われ

緊締環の腐食を効果的に防止できるので、寿命の
長いものとなる。 Further, when the fixing member is inserted, both opening edges of the stopper member come into contact with the synthetic rubber sealing member, so that the tightening ring is completely covered by the stopper member and is no longer in direct contact with external fluid. Therefore,
Corrosion of the tightening ring can be effectively prevented, resulting in a long service life.
さらに、本考案のオイルシールは緊締環の外周
に断面半円弧状の内側に開口した金属製環体を嵌
めたものであるから構成がきわめて簡単であり、
ストツパ部材を有しない従来のオイルシールを使
用して廉価に製造することができる。 Furthermore, the oil seal of the present invention is extremely simple in construction because it has a metal ring body with a semicircular arc cross section and an opening on the inside fitted around the outer periphery of the tightening ring.
It can be manufactured at low cost using a conventional oil seal without a stopper member.
