The cover 15 is disposed between the mechanical seal 25 and the seal member 26 on the inner side along the axial direction of the rotary shaft 17.
An annular chamber 28 surrounding the rotating shaft 17 is formed therein.
In the annular chamber 28, the mechanical seal 2 is attached to the rotating shaft 17.
The fan 29 arranged toward the fifth side is fixed. The fan 29 has a plurality of blades along the radial direction of the rotating shaft 17.
A communication hole 30 opened inside 9 is formed along one diameter line. In order to form an air passage in cooperation with the communication hole 30, an introduction hole 31 having an inner end communicating with the communication hole 30 is formed coaxially with the rotating shaft 17, and an outer end of the introduction hole 31 is formed. It is opened to the outside by a widened portion 31a having a tapered shape or a stepped shape to expand the axially outward side to improve the air introduction. Therefore, the rotating shaft 17, that is, the fan 2

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described. When the water pump P is operated, the space between the pump chamber 16 and the annular chamber 28 is sealed by a mechanical seal 25, and water in the pump chamber 16 is released from the annular chamber. However, it is difficult to completely seal with the mechanical seal 25, and the annular chamber 28 of a small amount of water containing water vapor evaporated by frictional heat in the mechanical seal 25.
Leaks to the unavoidable. However, in the annular chamber 28, air is introduced from the outside through the air passage formed by the introduction hole 31 and the communication hole 30 by the fan 29, and centrifugal force acts on the introduced air. Therefore, centrifugal force also acts on the water and steam leaking from the mechanical seal 25 to the annular chamber 28, and a part of the steam and the water are forced out of the drain hole 32, and the remaining steam is forced out of the air passage 33. Is discharged. In addition, since the air flows in the annular chamber 28, the mechanical seal 25 can be cooled, and the generation of frictional heat in the mechanical seal 25 can be suppressed as much as possible.
