Abstract
A sealing device is provided with a seal lip which extends toward a sealing space side, a lip edge and an opposite sealing space side conical surface are formed in an inner peripheral surface of the seal lip, the lip edge being slidably brought into close contact with an outer peripheral surface of a rotating body, and the opposite sealing space side conical surface being larger in diameter from the lip edge toward an external space side, a plurality of screw protrusions are formed in the opposite sealing space side conical surface, the screw protrusions generating a screw pump action toward the lip edge side on the basis of rotation of the rotating body in a fixed direction, and a desired number of dust capture portions are formed in a hem portion of each of the screw protrusions, thereby preventing dusts from being bitten into the lip edge sliding portion.
