Operation device for liquid leakage prediction system

An arrangement structure for a seal member includes: a first member having a first mating surface and provided with a groove portion; a second member having a second mating surface, and configured to move relatively to the first member; and an annular seal member fitted into the groove portion, providing sealing between the first member and the second member, and serving as a partition between an atmosphere-side space and a pressurized-side space. The seal member includes a plurality of first protruding portions protruding toward the second mating surface and aligned from the atmosphere-side space toward the pressurized-side space. The seal member has such a shape that, in a state of not being fitted into the groove portion, a protrusion height of the first protruding portion increases in stages from the first protruding portion arranged close to the pressurized-side space toward the first protruding portion arranged close to the atmosphere-side space.

Arrangement structure for seal member

A split seal ring includes: an annular main body seal split partially in a circumferential direction; and abutment surfaces provided on split surfaces of the main body seal so as to be joined to each other. Each of the abutment surfaces includes: a first inclined surface extending in a direction intersecting with the circumferential direction; a first horizontal surface extending from one end side of the first inclined surface along the circumferential direction; and a second inclined surface extending from an end of the first horizontal surface opposite to the first inclined surface in the direction intersecting with the circumferential direction. With this configuration, there can be provided a split seal ring having a structure that can improve the sealing performance.
