Patent number: 7959158Abstract: A shaft sealing device includes a seal assembly equipped with a fitting part having a fitting surface hermetically fittable within a hole defining surface of a housing and a rubber elastomer first seal lip extending inward from the fitting part and having a seal surface which seals a fluid inside an internal boundary thereof. A seal sleeve made of metal or resin material is equipped with a slide seal surface that is in slidable contact with the seal surface of the first seal lip. A concave rotor surrounds a seal surface region defined at a longitudinal end of the slide seal surface, and includes a close-contact fitting surface that is hermetically fitted to a rotary shaft. A discharge port defined by the rotor facilitates the sealed fluid being pushed back to the rotor in a direction extending away from the seal surface region.Type: GrantFiled: December 16, 2005Date of Patent: June 14, 2011Assignee: Eagle Industry Co., Ltd.Inventor: Masamitsu Sanada
