  • Publication number: 20200056029
    Abstract: [Object] To provide a technology for imparting favorable slidability to fluorine rubber. [Solving Means] A composition for a sealing member includes: 100 parts by weight of an uncrosslinked fluorine rubber component; and 0.5 to 50 (inclusive) parts by weight of a particulate resin. The particulate resin includes a compatible portion and a lubrication portion, the compatible portion having compatibility with the fluorine rubber component, the lubrication portion having lubricity with respect to the fluorine rubber component. During molding of the composition for a sealing member, crosslinking of the fluorine rubber component progresses and at least a part of the particulate resin moves to a surface due to an action of the lubrication portion. As a result, a surface layer portion including a compatible portion and a lubrication portion is formed on a surface of a molded sealing member.

  • Publication number: 20200040175
    Abstract: [Object] To provide a ring-shaped sealing member having both the sealing property and slidability. [Solving Means] A sealing member is formed in a ring shape and has a sliding surface. The sealing member includes: 100 parts by weight of fluorine rubber; and 0.5 to 50 (inclusive) parts by weight of a particulate resin. The particulate resin includes a compatible portion and a lubrication portion, the compatible portion having compatibility with the fluorine rubber, the lubrication portion having lubricity with respect to the fluorine rubber. A Shore A hardness measured using the sliding surface as a pressing surface is not less than 80. In this sealing member, since rubber elasticity is achieved by the fluorine rubber, a favorable sealing property can be realized. Further, it is possible to impart high slidability to the sealing member by the action of the lubrication portion of the particulate resin. Therefore, this sealing member has both the sealing property and slidability.

  • Patent number: 4413600
    Abstract: In a distributor type fuel injection pump of the type including a plunger arranged for reciprocating and rotative motion, and a fuel injection quantity setting member slidably fitted on the plunger and engageable with a cut-off port formed in the plunger and communicating with a pump working chamber, a second cut-off port is formed in the plunger in communication with the pump working chamber, which opens in an outer peripheral portion of the plunger with which the fuel injection quantity setting member permanently slidably engages, and a plurality of spill ports formed in the setting member in a circumferentially spaced relation, which are smaller in number than the cylinders of an engine for use with the pump. When the plunger moves through each delivery stroke in a low engine load region, the second cut-off port engages each one of the spill ports successively to cause injection of fuel into only part of the engine cylinders.
