Abstract

A magnetic fluid sealing device for an oscillating shaft includes a housing, the oscillating shaft, a first seal, a second seal, and a magnetic source. The housing includes a ball head, and a ball hinge is arranged within the housing. The oscillating shaft is swingable with the ball hinge as a center. The first seal and the second seal are arranged on both sides of the ball head. The first seal includes a first toothed ring, and the second seal includes a second toothed ring. Magnetic fluid is filled at sealing gaps between the first and second toothed rings and the ball head. The magnetic source generates a magnetic field along an axial direction of the oscillating shaft.
