  • Patent number: 9816616
    Abstract: A magnetic fluid seal (20) sealing between an apparatus end (14) and a rotating shaft (22) going through the apparatus end, comprising a housing (38) comprising a magnetic flux generating means (28) generating a magnetic flux and a magnetic flux transfer means (24, 26) facing to the rotating shaft with a fine clearance and transferring the magnetic flux, and placed so as to move relatively in a radial direction of the rotating shaft with respect to the apparatus end and a magnetic fluid (44) held in the fine clearance by the magnetic flux generated by the magnetic flux generating means.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 7, 2013
    Date of Patent: November 14, 2017

  • Patent number: 8328199
    Abstract: A seal device has a magnetic force generator for generating a magnetic force in a vicinity of a shaft. A first magnetism transmission member for transmitting the magnetic force generator is disposed adjacent to one side of the magnetic force generator. A second magnetism transmission member for transmitting the magnetic force generated by the magnetic force generator is disposed adjacent to another side of the magnetic force generator. A slide bush is disposed and secured between an inner flange of the second magnetism transmission member and the shaft. A seal member for sliding relative to an outer peripheral surface of the shaft, is accommodated in a sealing. And, a magnetic fluid is held between the shaft and the magnetism transmission member by the magnetic force generated by the magnetic force generator.
