Patent ID: 10041562

Abstract:
A sealing structure allows for formation of a side lip, as well as a labyrinth structure between an oil seal and a torsional vibration damper, even when a reinforcing ring has a short inward flange part. The sealing body 120 includes a side lip 124 extending from near a distal end of an inward flange part 112 radially inward and further toward an air side (A) than a dust lip 122 to a position not as far as the outer circumferential surface of a tubular part 210. An annular member 250 is further provided, which is fixed to the outer circumferential surface of the tubular part 210 further on the air side (A) than the side lip 124 and covering an outer circumferential surface of the side lip 124 such that there is a gap between the annular member 250 itself and the outer circumferential surface of the side lip 124.
