Abstract

A sealing device includes a housing rotatably accommodating a rotary shaft, guide parts extending along a radial direction and an axial direction of the rotary shaft, and arranged side-by-side in a circumferential direction of the rotary shaft, a partition part that is a partition between spaces between the guide parts and an outside space, a first seal part that is an annular protrusion, forming a first gap with respect to the rotary shaft or the partition part, and blocking a flow of fluid passing through the outside space, and a second seal part that is an annular protrusion extending in the radial direction, forming a second gap with respect to the rotary shaft or the housing, and blocking a flow of fluid that has passed through the spaces between guide parts and a flow of fluid that has passed through the first seal part.
