The lubrication state of the sliding surface, which is the most important factor that affects the sealing performance of mechanical seals, has traditionally been determined by observing the sliding torque, the friction coefficient calculated from the sliding torque, or the sliding surface properties. However, as a rule of thumb, the lubrication state and sliding torque do not necessarily match, and when observing the sliding surface properties, it is necessary to stop the rotational drive of the device body in which the mechanical seal is installed each time. Then, the mechanical seal must be removed and disassembled.

The present invention was developed in view of the above points, and includes a highly sensitive piezoelectric element built into the mechanical seal.
We would like to provide a mechanical seal that is equipped with a trouble detection device that checks the lubrication state of the sliding surface by receiving an acoustic emission signal (hereinafter abbreviated as "AE signal") received by the high-sensitivity piezoelectric element. It is also configured to be able to detect (predict) damage such as cracks and breaks in the mechanical seal itself. The mechanical seal of the present invention has the above-described configuration, so that it is possible to incorporate the mechanical seal into the main body of the device and to detect from the outside whether there is a problem with the mechanical seal while the main body of the device is being driven. The specific detection method of the present invention is as follows.
