Claim:
1. A sealing device for sealing an annular gap between a rotating shaft and a housing having a shaft hole into which the rotating shaft is inserted, the sealing device comprising: a first sealing member made of rubber comprising a tubular portion and a lip portion that extends radially inward from the tubular portion and that slides on an outer peripheral surface of the rotating shaft; a second sealing member made of resin being provided further to a side opposite to a sealed fluid side in an axial direction of the rotating shaft from the first sealing member, and comprising a lip portion that slides on the outer peripheral surface of the rotating shaft; a maintaining member made of metal being provided between the first sealing member and the second sealing member, and maintaining a posture of the first sealing member; and a case made of metal comprising: a cylindrical portion being fitted in and making contact with an inner peripheral surface of the shaft hole; an inward flange extending inwardly in a radial direction of the rotating shaft from an end portion of the cylindrical portion on the side opposite; and a nail portion extending toward the sealed fluid side from an end portion of the inward flange, wherein the maintaining member comprises: a large diameter portion, the tubular portion being fitted between the cylindrical portion of the case and an outer surface of the large diameter portion; an inward flange extending inwardly in the radial direction from an end portion of the large diameter portion on the side opposite, and being in contact with the inward flange of the case, the inward flange having a notch with which the nail portion is engaged; a small diameter portion being connected to an end portion of the large diameter portion on the sealed fluid side via a stepped portion, and being in contact with an inner peripheral surface of the lip portion of the first sealing member, and extending toward the sealed fluid side beyond a sliding portion of the lip portion of the second sealing member; and a lip retaining portion extending inwardly in the radial direction from an end portion of the small diameter portion on the sealed fluid side, wherein in an installed condition the small diameter portion has an annular gap between the small diameter portion and an outer peripheral surface of the lip portion of the second sealing member in the radial direction.
