Sealing device
A sealing device to be provided in a bearing device for sealing an annular gap between an outer member and a flange. The sealing device includes a slinger attached to the flange by bolts press-fitted into a plurality of bolt holes provided at the flange. The slinger includes a main body portion in a hollow disk shape having insertion portions into which the bolts are inserted, an elastic seal being made of an elastic member and being integrally formed around the insertion portions of the main body portion, and a slinger cylindrical portion extending from an inner diametrical side end portion of the main body portion into axial direction and forming a first labyrinth by a gap between the slinger cylindrical portion and an outer circumferential face of the outer member.

a slinger to be attached to the flange by bolts that are press-fitted into a plurality of bolt holes provided at the flange; and
a seal member to be attached to the outer member,
the slinger comprising:
a main body portion in a hollow disk shape having insertion portions into which the bolts are inserted;
an elastic seal being made of an elastic member and being integrally formed around the insertion portions of the main body portion; and
a slinger cylindrical portion extending from an inner diametrical side end portion of the main body portion in an axial direction and forming a first labyrinth by a gap between the slinger cylindrical portion and an outer circumferential face of the outer member,
wherein the seal member comprises a support member being fitted to the outer member, and a seal lip made of an elastic member, the seal lip being fixed to the support member and being elastically contacted to the flange or being arranged adjacent to the flange,
wherein the seal member is configured to be fitted to the outer circumferential face of the outer member,
wherein the slinger cylindrical portion comprises:
a first cylindrical portion that faces an outer circumferential face of the seal member that is fitted to the outer circumferential face of the outer member, and
a second cylindrical portion that faces the outer circumferential face of the outer member and has a diameter that is smaller than that of the first cylindrical portion, and
wherein the first cylindrical portion and the second cylindrical portion form a labyrinth that is bent along the outer circumferential face of the outer member to which the seal member is attached.
2. A sealing device to be provided in a bearing device having an inner member and an outer member that rotate relatively and coaxially, the sealing device sealing an annular gap between the outer member and a flange provided at the inner member in a cylindrical shape and extending in outer diametrical direction,
the sealing device comprising:
a slinger to be attached to the flange by bolts that are press-fitted into a plurality of bolt holes provided at the flange; and
a seal member to be attached to the outer member,
the slinger comprising:
a main body portion in a hollow disk shape having insertion portions into which the bolts are inserted;
an elastic seal being made of an elastic member and being integrally formed around the insertion portions of the main body portion; and
a slinger cylindrical portion extending from an inner diametrical side end portion of the main body portion in an axial direction and forming a first labyrinth by a gap between the slinger cylindrical portion and an outer circumferential face of the outer member,
wherein the slinger is arranged to be adjacently opposed to a knuckle that is integrally provided on an outer circumferential side of the outer member so as to be spaced apart from the flange and further comprises a circular plate portion that forms a second labyrinth by a gap between the circular plate portion and the knuckle,
wherein the seal member comprises a support member being fitted to the outer member, and a seal lip made of an elastic member, the seal lip being fixed to the support member and being elastically contacted to the flange or being arranged adjacent to the flange,
wherein the seal member is configured to be fitted to the outer circumferential face of the outer member,
wherein the slinger cylindrical portion comprises:
a first cylindrical portion that faces an outer circumferential face of the seal member that is fitted to the outer circumferential face of the outer member, and
a second cylindrical portion that faces the outer circumferential face of the outer member and has a diameter that is smaller than that of the first cylindrical portion, and
wherein the first cylindrical portion and the second cylindrical portion form a labyrinth that is bent along the outer circumferential face of the outer member to which the seal member is attached.
3. A sealing device to be provided in a bearing device having an inner member and an outer member that rotate relatively and coaxially, the sealing device sealing an annular gap between the outer member and a flange provided at the inner member in a cylindrical shape and extending in outer diametrical direction,
the sealing device comprising:
a slinger to be attached to the flange by bolts that are press-fitted into a plurality of bolt holes provided at the flange; and
a seal member to be attached to the outer member,
