Publication number: 20120085469Abstract: Provided is a method for manufacturing a blasting material for shot peening with which a reliably high level of hardness can be achieved while preventing an increase in the material cost. Quenchable steel is used as a material in a blasting material manufacturing step (S10). After granules (4) which are quenched by means of a water atomization method are formed in a quenching step (S20), the granules (4) are tempered inside a heating furnace (5) at a prescribed temperature (from 130-230° C., and preferably from 160-230° C.) For a prescribed amount of time in a tempering step (S30). A work hardening treatment is applied in a work hardening step (S40) wherein the granules (4) are blasted/bombarded onto a target material (7) to apply stress to the granules (4) using an apparatus for shot peening (6).Type: ApplicationFiled: November 24, 2009Publication date: April 12, 2012Inventors: Masahiko Mitsubayashi, Takaaki Kanazawa, Masayuki Ishikawa

Publication number: 20100225431Abstract: Provided are a steel having a non-magnetic portion, which can be applied to the steel of the remaining portion irrespective of the material and which has a structure of a short treating time required and a determined depth direction, its manufacturing method, and a revolving electric core. There is prepared an electromagnetic steel sheet having a recessed groove. A two-layered chip of a modifier metal foil and a stainless steel foil is so set in the groove of the electromagnetic steel sheet that the electromagnetic steel sheet and the stainless steel foil have surfaces of the same height. The modifier metal foil is melted when electric current is applied under pressure. When this pressing and current applying is continued, inner sides of the electromagnetic steel sheet and the stainless steel foil contacting the modifier metal foil are melted to form a nonmagnetic alloy layer in the region excepting the surface portions of an electromagnetic steel sheet layer and a stainless steel layer.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 27, 2008Publication date: September 9, 2010Applicant: TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Keisuke Kadota, Hideo Aihara, Masahiko Mitsubayashi

Patent number: 5711177Abstract: A method of corrugating a metallic pipe which achieves an increase in the limit of tube expansion ratios. First, a heated part is formed by heating a local part of an outer periphery of a pipe in a circumferential direction by a high frequency coil. Next, the heated part is located within a forming surface of a forming die, and an axial compressive stress is applied to the pipe. Thus, the heated part is expanded while restricted by the forming surface. Therefore, even when the axial length of the heated part is increased, formability is stabilized and the tube expansion ratio can be raised.Type: GrantFiled: June 27, 1996Date of Patent: January 27, 1998Assignee: Toyota Jidosha Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Masahiko Mitsubayashi, Masazumi Ohnishi, Noritaka Miyamoto, Shinobu Ishida, Shinji Kawasaki, Shoichiro Nitta

Patent number: 5522247Abstract: In a method and apparatus for manufacturing a corrugated tube, a tube is clamped by a pair of spaced apart chucks. A local portion of the tube is softened. The chucks are moved in the same direction such that the trailing or rearward chuck moves farther than the leading or forward chuck, thereby imparting an axially compressive force on the tube. Accordingly, a bulge is formed at the softened portion of the tube. The heating and compression cycle may be performed several times to obtain a corrugated tube having a plurality of bulges or waves formed therein.Type: GrantFiled: September 19, 1994Date of Patent: June 4, 1996Assignee: Toyota Jidosha Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Masahiko Mitsubayashi, Noritaka Miyamoto, Keisuke Kadota, Masazumi Onishi, Tohru Shimada
