Abstract

One brush seal unit is piled on another one in such a manner that thin beams of the one brush seal unit overlap the slits of the another brush seal unit easily using their positioning sections in order to improve sealing ability. The pitches at the positioning sections of each brush seal unit is determined so that the slits and thin beams of the neighboring and piled brush seal units are overlapped each other by relatively displacing the neighboring brush seal units.
