Gasket-mounting structure
A structure allowing a gasket to be mounted on a fluid device is provided. The gasket includes a ring with a first annular slope at a first axial end. The fluid device includes an inner sleeve with a second annular slope and an outer sleeve radially outside the inner sleeve. An outer periphery of the ring includes an annular contact face that contacts the outer sleeve and an annular non-contact face radially separated from the outer sleeve. The first annular slope contacts an outer periphery of the second slope.
1. A structure allowing a gasket to be mounted on a fluid device, comprising:
the gasket including a ring with a first annular slope at a first axial end; and
the fluid device including an inner sleeve with a second annular slope and an outer sleeve radially outside the inner sleeve, wherein
an outer periphery of the ring includes an annular contact face that contacts the outer sleeve and an annular non-contact face radially separated from the outer sleeve,
the first annular slope contacts an outer periphery of the second annular slope
within a range in an axial direction of the ring in which the first annular slope contacts the second annular slope, the non-contact face extends from the first axial end of the ring toward a second axial end of the ring, and
an axial width of the non-contact face is configured such that, within the range, radially inward pressure of the outer sleeve against the ring is reduced and radially inward pressure of the ring is prevented from deforming the inner sleeve.
2. The structure according to claim 1 , wherein:
the contact face is located near the second axial end of the ring;
the non-contact face is located near the first axial end of the ring.
3. The structure according to claim 2 , wherein the non-contact face extends, in an axial direction of the ring, nearer to the second axial end of the ring than the range in which the first annular slope contacts the second annular slope.
4. The structure according to claim 2 , wherein the non-contact face is inclined to an axis of the ring.
5. The structure according to claim 1 , wherein the non-contact face has an axial width that exceeds the range in the axial direction of the ring in which the first annular slope contacts the second annular slope.
