Abstract
A sealing structure has a sealing device which is a plane seal disposed in an annular groove provided in one of two members and which seals the annular gap between the two members. The sealing device includes a seal member made of a rubber-shaped elastic body and disposed on a high-pressure side and a backup ring made of a resin mounted adjacent to the seal member on a low-pressure side of the seal member. The backup ring has a ring-like shape with ends in which a notch is formed in a part thereof, and the notch extends parallel to the thickness direction of the backup ring, and extends so as to intersect the radial direction of the backup ring. The seal member and the backup ring are disposed between the two members in a state of being pressurized from the two members, respectively.
