Abstract
A sealing device includes a metal ring, a main lip, an annular elastic body, a sliding ring, and biasing means. The metal ring is hermetically fixed to a housing. The main lip is bonded to the metal ring and is slidably in close contact with an outer periphery surface of a rotating body inserted through an inner circumference of the housing. The annular elastic body is bonded to the metal ring on an outer side of the main lip, and stretchable in an axial direction. The sliding ring is provided at an end portion of the annular elastic body on a side opposite the metal ring, and is slidably in close contact with a seal flange attached to an outer periphery of the rotating body. The biasing means is configured to elastically press the sliding ring against the seal flange, thereby maintaining stable sealability over an extended period of time.
