Abstract: In a sealing device having a combination of a seal lip and a seal flange which slidably come into contact with each other, and having a thread groove in an axial end face of the seal flange, the seal lip installed to a not-rotating housing side slidably comes into contact with an axial end face of the seal flange in a rotating shaft side, and the thread groove achieves a fluid pumping action at the rotating time in an axial end face of the seal flange. The thread groove has an inner peripheral side inclined surface as a part of an inner surface thereof, and an angle formed between an inner peripheral surface of a leading end portion of the seal lip and the inner peripheral side inclined surface is set to a range of 0 degree±3 degrees. The sealing device can suppress generation of a static leakage.

Abstract: The present invention addresses the problem of providing: a metal gasket capable of limiting the loss of axial bolt fastening force even if a peripheral creased section is formed as an anti-saline intrusion measure; and a metal gasket, which has relatively small curved sections with a radius of curvature of not more than 20 mm on the outer edge and which is capable of limiting loss of axial bolt fastening force even when a peripheral creased section is formed over the entire perimeter of the metal gasket as an anti-saline intrusion measure. Said problem is solved by a metal gasket, which is disposed between the abutting surfaces of two members and has, on a metal base plate: bolt holes into which bolts are inserted; a bead that is to the inside of the bolt holes and is for sealing between the abutting surfaces; and a peripheral creased section configured by bending the perimeter of the metal base plate in one direction so that no gap in which saline can accumulate is formed between the abutting surfaces.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to make it possible to easily remove a carrier film when removing the carrier film from a gasket body in a carrier-film-equipped gasket, which includes a combination of a rubber-only type gasket body and a resinous carrier film that retains the gasket body, even if the gasket body is adhered to the carrier film. To fulfill the object, a step for peeling, against an adhesive force, the carrier film from the gasket body in a state in which the gasket body is fixed to a base, is carried out. As a preliminary step of the peeling step, the gasket body is pressed from the carrier film side by a pressing device thereby to decrease the adhesion area between the gasket body and the carrier film, and the peeling step is carried out in a state in which the adhesion area has been decreased.

Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to improve the handling and usability of rubber only-type gaskets. To achieve said purpose, a gasket molding is obtained by combining a rubber only-type gasket body with a film carrier obtained from a resin film that holds the gasket body in an unbonded state. The gasket molding is characterized in that: in addition to a gasket-holding section for holding the gasket body, the film carrier has temporary tacking sections that are surface-treated to temporarily tack the gasket body to said film carrier; the gasket body has temporary tack-receiving sections that are temporarily tacked to the temporary tacking sections; and the temporary tacking sections and temporary tack-receiving sections are removed from the film carrier and the gasket body when the film carrier and gasket body are punched into the product shapes.
