Abstract

Since the conventionally the chip seal and the metallic blade spring have been formed separately, assembly efficiency has been poor (for example when the chip seal is inserted, the metallic blade spring detaches and falls out) which lowers productivity. As a result, the cross sectional shape of the chip seal which pushes against the rotor is made in the shape of a letter L.
