Abstract: Provided is a milling cutter including: a tool body to rotate about an axis; and cutting edges at an outer peripheral part of a front end of the tool body, wherein the cutting edges include a flat face machining cutting edge extending along a virtual plane perpendicular to the axis, and a recessed groove machining cutting edge projecting further toward a front end side in the axial direction than the flat face machining cutting edge, and the recessed groove machining cutting edge has a first inclined portion extending toward the front end side in the axial direction toward an outside in a radial direction, a second inclined portion arranged outside the first inclined portion in the radial direction and extending toward a base end side in the axial direction toward the outside in the radial direction, and a tip portion connecting the first and second inclined portions.

Abstract: An expansion section for expanding the distance between longitudinal side surfaces of an opening of a tube when being inserted a predetermined depth into the opening is formed an expansion wedge body, and guide protuberances are protrusively formed on the respective longitudinal sides of the expansion section. The guide protuberances are inserted into the spaces provided on the respective sides of the opening of the tube, thereby guiding the expansion section into the opening.

Abstract: A structure for mounting a tube to a header member of heat exchanger is such that the header member has a tube hole and the tube is disposed through the tube hole so that a portion of the tube projects out of and beyond the header member. The portion of the tube which projects outwardly is expanded via the insertion of an expansion wedge to establish a tight contact between the tube and the tube hole.

Abstract: A molding device is provided for molding a blower fan that has a center member embedded in a center portion of the fan. The molding device comprises a pair of molding dies which define therebetween a shaped cavity when properly coupled; and an insert die fixed to one of the pair of molding dies in such a manner that at least a part of the insert die is exposed to a shaped cavity that is produced when the molding dies are coupled. The insert die includes a base block secured to one of the pair of molding dies; a cylindrical holding bore defined by the base block; a plurality of cylindrical eccentric members having eccentric through bores whose eccentric degrees are different from one another, each eccentric member being sized to be intimately received in the cylindrical holding bore; a positioning structure that establishes angular positioning of the cylindrical eccentric members.
