Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
An object is to provide a metal gasket that can form a wide contact width for a counterpart sealing face and that can achieve excellent sealing properties even when a blow hole is generated in the counterpart sealing face, and the object is achieved by a metal gasket having a bead portion to be in contact with a counterpart sealing face to form a sealing portion, formed on a gasket main body. The bead portion includes an arc portion that is convex toward the counterpart sealing face and hem-rising portions that each obliquely rise from the gasket main body toward the arc portion, on both hems of the arc portion. A connection portion between the arc portion and the hem-rising portion is formed to be convex toward a convex side of the bead portion. Plastic distortion for an overall width of the arc portion is lower than that of the connection portion. A contact pressure distribution in the arc portion in a compression state has a shape that is flat and wide in a width direction of the arc portion.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A metal gasket comprising a bead portion to be in contact with a counterpart sealing face to form a sealing portion, formed on a gasket main body, wherein in a non-compressed state the bead portion comprises an arc portion that is convex toward the counterpart sealing face, and straight hem-rising portions that obliquely rise from the gasket main body to the arc portion, so that a plastic distortion of the connection portion is higher than a plastic distortion of the arc portion, wherein a connection portion between the arc portion and the hem-rising portion is formed to be convex toward a convex side of the bead portion, wherein the bead portion is deformed by being compressed so that stress generated by the bead portion seals the counterpart sealing face, wherein in a compressed state, an arc portion is pressed to the counterpart sealing face to be deformed between a connection portion to form a flat face along the counterpart sealing face. 2. The metal gasket according to claim 1 , wherein a length per one side of the hem-rising portion is the range of one sixth to one third of an overall width of the bead portion. 3. The metal gasket according to claim 1 , wherein the gasket main body is coated with an elastic substance. 4. A metal gasket comprising a first bead portion in contact with one counterpart sealing face to form a sealing portion and a second bead portion in contact with a second counterpart sealing face to form a second sealing portion, so that the sealing portions are formed on both sides of a gasket main body, wherein in a non-compressed state the bead portion comprises an arc portion that is convex toward the counterpart sealing face, and straight hem-rising portions that obliquely rise from the gasket main body to the arc portion, and straight hem-rising portions that are arranged between each of the arc portions, so that plastic distortion of the connection portion is higher than plastic distortion of the arc portion, and wherein a connection portion between the arc portion and the hem-rising portion is formed to be convex toward a convex side of the bead portion, wherein each of the bead portions is deformed by being compressed and stress generated in each of the bead portion seals and each of the counterpart sealing faces, wherein in a compressed state, an arc portion is pressed to the counterpart sealing face to be deformed between a connection portion to form a flat face along the counterpart sealing face. 5. The metal gasket according to claim 4 , wherein a length per one side of the hem-rising portion is the range of one sixth to one third of an overall width of the bead portion. 6. The metal gasket according to claim 4 , wherein the gasket main body is coated with an elastic substance.
