1. A sealing structure for preventing a fluid from flowing from a high pressure to a low pressure region between a rotating shaft and a stator, the sealing structure comprising:a stator section having a groove on an inner surface thereof;the rotating shaft having a surface;a ring made of a plurality of portions formed in a circle and disposed in the groove;a seal disposed between a surface of the groove and the ring on the high pressure region configured to prevent a gas from a connecting hole to flow there between;a brush comprised of a plurality of wires attached at an inner surface of the ring, wherein tips of the plurality of wires are disposed toward at least a portion of the inner surface;a spring member which pushes the ring in a direction in which the ring departs from the rotating shaft so as to float the brush from the inner surface of the stator; andthe connecting hole which induces fluid pressure which presses the ring in a direction in which the ring approaches the rotating shaft so as to be against a spring force of the spring member and make the brush contact the inner surface of the stator, whereinthe sealing structure prevents the fluid from running between the rotating shaft and the stator in an axial direction of the rotating shaft and has a clearance from the surface of the rotating shaft. 2. A sealing structure for a rotating shaft, according to claim 1, wherein the sealing structure has a pressure inducing device which induces the fluid pressure to the connecting hole. 3. A sealing structure for a rotating shaft, according to claim 1 or 2, wherein the spring member is disposed separately near an upstream of the fluid and near a downstream of the fluid so as to dispose the brush therebetween. 4. A sealing structure for a rotating shaft, according to claim 3, wherein the spring member further comprises at least a first and a second spring member, and the spring force of the at least first spring member disposed near an upstream of the fluid is greater than the spring force of the at least second spring member disposed near a downstream of the fluid at the brush as a border. 5. A turbine which is provided with a rotating shaft seal structure according to claim 1 or 2 wherein the turbine converts thermal energy to mechanical rotary energy so as to generate a dynamic force by expanding high temperature high pressure fluid to rotors disposed on the rotating shaft so as to rotate the rotors around the rotating shaft. 6. A leak-preventing seal system for preventing a fluid from flowing from a high pressure to a low pressure region between a rotating shaft and a stator, the leak-preventing seal system comprising:a ring made of a plurality of circular portions which are disposed on a rotor, said ring having the rotating shaft therethrough and being made of a plurality of portions formed in circles and disposed in a groove;a seal, disposed between a surface of the groove and the ring on the high pressure region, being configured to prevent a gas from a connecting hole to flow between the groove and the ring,a brush composing a plurality of wires attached to an inner surface of the ring, wherein tips of the wires are disposed toward at least a portion of the inner surface;a spring member which pushes the ring in a direction in which the ring departs from the rotating shaft; andthe connecting hole for inducing fluid pressure to press the ring in a direction in which the ring approaches the rotating shaft so as to be against a spring force of the spring member,wherein the leak-preventing seal system for rotating shaft prevents the fluid from flowing between the rotating shaft and the stator in an axial direction of the rotating shaft and has a clearance from the surface of the rotating shaft; andwherein the leak-preventing seal system for rotating shaft supplies the fluid pressure to the connecting hole when sealing the clearance and stops the supply of the fluid pressure to the connecting hole when releasing the seal ing of the clearance.
