A bellows-shaped flexible dust boot is attached to the joint in order to retain lubricating grease in the joint and to prevent the intrusion of foreign substances such as dust and water. In place of the rubber dust boots used, dust boots made of soft synthetic resin, thermoplastic elastomer, or the like may be attached to the joint. However, although soft synthetic resins and thermoplastic elastomers are malleable, they do not have the same elasticity as rubber, so in order to improve their sealing properties, a band-shaped clamp is tightened over the shaft side fitting part. Therefore, there was a problem that the number of parts increased and the number of installation steps also increased.

Hereinafter, an embodiment of this invention will be described based on the drawings. FIG. 1 shows a cross-sectional view of the joint, and FIG. 2 shows an enlarged cross-sectional view of the shaft-side fitting portion 1 thereof.
The dust boot 2 is made of soft synthetic resin, thermoplastic elastomer, etc., such as polyamide, polyurethane, or polyester resin, and is installed between the joint outer ring 3 and the joint shaft 4 with the mounting portions at both ends sealed. installed. At this time, the dust boot 2 is attached to the joint outer ring 3 by fitting the end of the dust boot 2 onto the joint outer ring 3 and tightening the band-shaped clamp 5 from above. On the other hand, dust boots 2
The shaft-side fitting part 1 is fitted and fixed to the joint shaft 4, but the joint shaft 4 has a recess 6 around the entire outer circumference.
and a convex portion 7 adjacent to this, and this concave portion 6
A seal ring 8 made of an elastic material such as chloroprene is inserted with a space left in the hole. In addition, the shaft side fitting part 1
is formed into a cylindrical shape that can be tightly fitted into the joint shaft 4, and has a ring-shaped projection 1a on its inner peripheral surface, and a cylindrical skirt 1b at its tip.
is provided. Note that the ring-shaped protrusion 1a
Even if it is formed on the entire inner circumferential surface of the shaft side fitting part 1, 1
It may be formed intermittently by cutting out portions. Shaft side fitting part 1 of dust boot 2 formed in this way
is tightly fitted and fixed to the outer periphery of the joint shaft 4 with the rigidity and flexibility of the soft synthetic resin and thermoplastic elastomer so that the protrusion 1a is fitted into the recess 6 of the joint shaft 4. Ru.
In this state, the shaft-side fitting part 1 maintains good sealing performance due to the seal ring 8, and even when the joint is tilted, the skirt part 1b is attached to the joint shaft 4.
It adheres well to the area and can maintain sealing performance in this area. In addition, dust boots 2 when tilting
Misalignment or coming off can be prevented by fitting the protrusion 1a and the recess 6, and sufficient mounting strength can be obtained without using a band-shaped clamp to securely fix the joint to the joint shaft.

As described above, according to the dust boot mounting structure according to this invention, a ring-shaped protrusion is provided on the inner peripheral surface of the shaft-side fitting portion of the dust boot that is attached to the joint shaft, and this shaft-side fitting portion is provided with a ring-shaped protrusion. A cylindrical skirt part is provided at the tip of the joint shaft, a seal ring made of an elastic body is fitted into a part of the recess provided on the outer periphery of the joint shaft, and a shaft side fitting part is externally fitted from above the seal ring, Since the structure is such that the protrusion fits into the space in the recess, even dust boots made of soft synthetic resin or thermoplastic elastomer can be installed while maintaining good sealing performance without using a tightening clamp. This has the effect of reducing the number of parts and installation man-hours. Further, the skirt portion provided at the tip of the dust boot maintains excellent sealing performance even when the joint shaft is tilted, thereby preventing grease leakage and dust intrusion.
