  • Patent number: 11932770
    Abstract: A method for producing a resin sintered body 1 by applying an ink 3 to thermoplastic resin powder 2 and sintering the powder, the method including the step of immersing an intermediate resin sintered body 1m, which has an unevenly colored region on the surface thereof and the whole of which has been already sintered, in a surface treatment liquid containing sulfuric acid and chromic anhydride, in which the concentration of chromic anhydride is 300 g/L or more, for 5 minutes or longer. When producing a resin sintered body by sintering thermoplastic resin powder, the surface of the resin sintered body can be evenly and sufficiently colored to an extent required without an unevenly colored region on the surface thereof, and also the surface of the resin sintered body can have a good appearance and smoothness.

  • Publication number: 20190224740
    Abstract: A forging device produces a forged product in which a protrusion is formed on a base plate. The forging device has a die with a molding hole and a punch to be driven into the molding hole. A protrusion molding cavity is formed in a bottom surface of the molding hole or a tip end surface of the punch in the die. A base plate molding portion is formed between the tip end surface of the punch and the bottom surface of the molding hole. A burr molding portion is formed between the tip end portion outer peripheral side surface of the punch and the inner peripheral side surface of the molding hole. The inner peripheral side surface of the molding hole is formed by an inclined surface that approaches an axis as it advances toward the pressing direction of the punch.
