Patent number: 10788129Abstract: A sealing device that is applicable to high-speed rotation applications and has an increased pressure resistance is provided. The sealing device includes: a first side discharge valve located on a first side, on which a fluid is to be sealed, of an outer circumferential sealing surface, the first side discharge valve extending radially outward toward the first side for allowing a gas in a space between an inner circumferential surface of a housing and an outer circumferential sealing surface to be discharged toward the first side while blocking a gas from entering the space from the first side; and a second side discharge valve located on an atmosphere side that is opposite to the first side with respect to the outer circumferential sealing surface, the second side discharge valve extending radially outward toward the atmosphere side for allowing the gas in the space to be discharged toward the atmosphere side while blocking a gas from entering the space from the atmosphere side.Type: GrantFiled: July 17, 2018Date of Patent: September 29, 2020Assignee: NOK CORPORATIONInventor: Kazunori Jinbo

Publication number: 20190101211Abstract: The sealing device includes a sealing member and a ring member. The sealing member has a groove and a slit, the groove being formed to have an annular shape in a circumferential direction along the sliding surface, and the slit being formed so as to allow communication from a side surface of the sealing member to the groove. The sealing member includes a contamination sealing portion which functions as a contamination seal and a hydraulic sealing portion which functions as a hydraulic seal, the contamination sealing portion being formed of a portion of the sliding surface disposed at a position outward from the groove, and the hydraulic sealing portion being formed of a portion of the sliding surface disposed at a position inward from the groove.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 1, 2018Publication date: April 4, 2019Inventor: Kazunori JINBO

Patent number: 9371911Abstract: In a reciprocating sealing device sealing two members by mounting a packing to a mounting groove in one of two relatively reciprocating members, and bringing the packing into contact with the other member, the packing is provided with an annular base part, a stationary side lip, and a sliding side lip. A back ring having a lower hardness than the packing is interposed between the annular base part and a groove side surface of the mounting groove. The back ring forms a space region in relation to the other member. The annular base part is provided with a shape that the annular base part does not protrude out of an extension of a peripheral surface of the sliding side lip in a free state by forming a cross sectional shape of a heel part into a circular arc shape or a taper shape.Type: GrantFiled: October 15, 2013Date of Patent: June 21, 2016Assignee: NOK CorporationInventors: Kazunori Jinbo, Hiroki Okada, Toru Araki

Patent number: 7767084Abstract: An oil strainer in which pressure loss by a turbulent flow in a case (10) is reduced as much as possible. The oil strainer has the case (10) having an inflow opening (112) and an outflow opening (122) that are at positions separated from each other, and also has a filter member (20) provided so as to partition the inner space of the case (10) into a space (SI) on the inflow opening (112) side and a space (SO) on the outflow opening (122) side. A guiding surface (13) is provided in the case (10), and the guiding surface (13) has dam-like ribs (113, 123), extends via a position behind the outflow opening (122) when viewed from the inflow opening (112) side, and converges the flow of oil toward the outflow opening (122).Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2006Date of Patent: August 3, 2010Assignees: NOK Corporation, Aisin AW Co., Ltd.Inventors: Kazunori Jinbo, Akihito Iwata, Minoru Kitabayashi, Daisuke Kitaoka
