Abstract: A manufacturing method of a press-formed article includes arranging a member to be pressed between first and second dies, and relatively moving the first and second dies so as to approach each other, thereby press forming to a portion to be pressed so that a height of the portion to be pressed decreases. In the press forming step, while first bent portions in a pair each bent in a protruded shape toward the second die on the portion to be pressed are held by groove-shaped holding portions in a pair separated from each other on the second die, a second bent portion bent in a protruded shape from a position between the first bent portions toward the first die on the portion to be pressed is pressed and deformed by a pressing portion of the first die.

Abstract: A manufacturing method of press-molded article of the present invention comprises a step of placing a member to be pressed in a press molding apparatus and a step of pressing a flat plate portion of the member to be pressed by bringing a first press portion and a second press portion closer to each other. A first opposing surface and a second opposing surface, while facing to each other, keep in contact with the flat plate portion during pressing. In the press step, a thick part is formed on the flat plate portion by allowing a part of a material of the flat plate portion to flow, in a press direction, into a thickened portion-forming section formed on the first opposing surface. The second opposing surface is moved to the press direction as the flat plate portion is pressed by the first press portion and the second press portion.

Abstract: A manufacturing method of press-formed article according to the present invention includes a step of placing a flat plate member between a first die and a second die, and a step of causing a first press portion and a second press portion approach each other, thereby pressing the flat plate member. In the step of placing, the flat plate member is placed so that a first main surface and a second main surface align with a vertical direction. In the step of pressing, the flat plate member is vertically pressed by causing the first press portion and the second press portion to approach each other in the vertical direction, and a thick portion is formed on the flat plate member by causing a part of a material of the flat plate member in the vertical direction to flow into a thickened portion-forming section formed on a first opposing surface.

Abstract: An electric linear actuator has an electric motor, a speed reduction mechanism, and a ball screw mechanism to convert rotational motion of the electric motor to an axial linear motion of a drive shaft. The ball screw mechanism nut and screw shaft both include helical screw grooves with a large number of balls between them. The housing has a first housing portion and a second housing portion. The electric motor is mounted on the first housing portion. The second housing portion abuts an end face of the first housing portion. The first housing portion has a cylindrical gear containing portion to contain the speed reduction mechanism. An end part of the gear containing portion extends radially inward to form a bottom portion to cover the speed reduction mechanism. The bottom portion of the first housing portion and the second housing portion are formed, respectively, with abutment surfaces.

Abstract: An electric linear actuator has a housing, an electric motor, a speed reduction mechanism, and a ball screw mechanism. The ball screw mechanism has a nut and a screw shaft. Both include a helical screw groove. The nut is supported by rolling bearings mounted on the housing. The screw shaft is coaxially integrated with the drive shaft. The screw shaft is inserted into the nut, via a large number of balls. The housing has a first housing and a second housing. The electric motor is mounted on the first housing. The second housing abuts against an end face of the first housing. At least one of the first and second housings is formed with ribs. The ribs extend from each of securing portions to a containing portion that contains the screw shaft. The securing portions are arranged on the periphery of the housing to receive fastening bolts.

Abstract: An electric linear actuator has a cylindrical housing, an electric motor, a speed reduction mechanism, and a ball screw mechanism. The ball screw mechanism has a nut and a screw shaft coaxially integrated with the drive shaft. The housing has receiving bores to receive the screw shaft. A cylindrical sleeve is securely press-fit into the receiving bore of the housing. The sleeve has one pair of axially extending recessed grooves formed on its inner circumference at diametrically opposed positions. A guide pin, mounted on the end of the screw shaft, engages the recessed grooves. An annular groove is formed near an opening of the receiving bore of the housing. The sleeve is held in the receiving bore by a stopper ring snapped into the annular groove.
