  • Patent number: 11174943
    Abstract: A seal structure includes a ring-shaped seal member. The seal member is disposed in a seal groove. The case includes a low-pressure lateral face in a cross section of the seal structure, the cross section being taken along an imaginary plane in parallel with a shaft axial direction of the shaft and passing through a center line of the shaft. The seal member includes a first protruding portion. The first protruding portion protrudes from a main portion having a bottom face in contact with the low-pressure lateral face, and has a shape such that the first protruding portion extends toward the shaft as the first protruding portion extends toward the low-pressure side. The first protruding portion includes a tip. The first protruding portion includes a contact region in contact with the shaft. The tip is closer to the low-pressure side than the contact region is.
