Abstract

An object is to exhibit a higher sealing performance against an external pressure, to more reliably prevent breakage of a sealed state established by an inner seal member, and to maintain the soundness of inner mechanical components. Provided is a joint structure including two joint members, a driving mechanism that rotationally drives the two joint members about a predetermined axis relative to each other, two seal members forming a seal between the joint members at positions doubly surrounding the outside of a lubricant storing part in the driving mechanism, and a pressure-applying means that makes the air pressure in a space provided between the two seal members, higher than the pressure of the outside air.
