[0004] However, in the above image 3 In the prior art, since the labyrinth lip 72 replaces the sliding lip 71 and is exposed to the foreign matter of the outside A, therefore, there is this labyrinth lip 72 that expands / deforms, and its function (by making the outside A It is difficult for foreign matter to reach the sliding lip 71 so as to protect the function of the sliding lip 71, hereinafter also referred to as "sliding lip protection function" or simply "function") risk of premature disappearance

Embodiment

[0045] Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

[0046] The sealing devices related to the various embodiments described below can be used as hub bearing seals (hub seals) in the bearing parts of automobile wheel suspension devices to prevent water and muddy water outside the bearing (outside the machine) A. , Salt water, dust, brake fluid or oil and other external foreign matter (interference factors) enter the bearing interior (machine) B, and at the same time, prevent the lubricating oil inside the bearing B from leaking to the bearing exterior A.

Abstract

Provided is a sealing device which comprises a sliding lip and a labyrinth lip, the sealing device being configured in such a manner that, even if the labyrinth lip is exposed to foreign matter outside a machine and swells, the deformation of the labyrinth lip is prevented and therefore the sliding lip-protecting function of the labyrinth lip is less likely to be lost. A sealing device is provided with: a sliding lip which performs sealing so that foreign matter outside a machine does not enter the inside of the machine; and a labyrinth lip which makes it less likely that foreign matter outside the machine reaches the sliding lip. The sealing device is characterized in that the front end of the labyrinth lip is provided with a cutout which absorbs the swelling of the labyrinth lip occurring when the labyrinth lip is exposed to foreign matter. Alternatively, the sealing device is characterized in that a second labyrinth lip is provided on the side of the labyrinth lip with which faces the inside of the machine. Alternatively, the sealing device is characterized in that a similar cutout is provided also in the front end of the second labyrinth lip.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a sealing device, and more specifically, to a sealing device including a sliding lip and a labyrinth lip. The sealing device of the present invention is used, for example, as a hub bearing seal for vehicles such as automobiles, or as other bearing seals (including seals for industrial bearings). Background technique [0002] In existing hub bearing seals, when external foreign matter (disturbing factors) such as water, muddy water, salt water, dust, brake fluid, or oil adheres to the sealing lip of the hub bearing seal installed on the bearing, the lip is The rubber swells and deforms, thereby reducing the sealing performance of the lip, and thus, there is a disadvantage that foreign matter is more likely to enter the bearing. [0003] In order to eliminate the above disadvantages, previously, such as image 3 As shown, there is a proposal for a hub bearing seal with the following structure: a sliding lip 71 is provide...
