[0056] The second sealing part 12 is also connected with an injection molding ring 2, which plays a role in facilitating the assembly of the sealing element 1. In the present embodiment, the injection molding ring 2 is connected and fixed with the second sealing part 12 by injection molding, that is, the injection molding ring 2 directly realizes the combination connection between the two during the molding process. The second sealing part 12 and the injection molding ring 2 cooperate to form a first axial limiting structure 14 and a first rotation limiting structure 15 as shown in Figure 2 The first axial limiting structure 14 and the first rotation limiting structure 15 are respectively used to realize the axial limiting and rotation limiting between the sealing element 1 and the injection molding ring 2.
