Abstract
A seal structure has a metal gasket arranged between a pair of casings. The metal gasket is provided with a bead portion in an inner peripheral side of a planate outer peripheral portion, and a bent portion in an outer peripheral side. When the metal gasket is pinched by a pair of casings, the bead portion elastically deforms so as to reduce its height and the outer peripheral portion elastically deforms on the basis of the elastic deformation of the bead portion, and comes into contact its outer peripheral end portion with one casing, whereby any gap in which salt water stays is not formed between one casing and the outer peripheral portion, and the bent portion comes into contact with the other casing, whereby any gap in which the salt water stays is not formed between the other casing and the outer peripheral portion.
