  • Patent number: 11585683
    Abstract: A magnetic encoder in which a support member and a plastic magnet do not adhere to each other is manufactured using a mold. The plastic magnet has a turning molded portion on the outer circumferential side thereof. The gate of the mold is an inner-diameter-side disk gate and a length L thereof in the axial direction is in a range of 0.2 mm?L?0.6 mm. The tensile strength of the material of the plastic magnet is 65 MPa or more and the Young's modulus thereof is 4000 MPa or more and 15000 MPa or less. The method includes a step of opening the mold and placing the support member as an insert object in the mold, and a step of closing the mold and injecting a melted material of the plastic magnet into a cavity through the disk gate.

  • Patent number: 10907688
    Abstract: A radial gap between an outer circumferential surface of an encoder member joined to an outward flange portion of a slinger and an inner circumferential surface of a seal body includes a first gap portion and a second gap portion closer to an inward flange portion of a core metal than the first gap portion is. The outer circumferential surface that defines the first gap portion is a cylindrical outer circumferential surface, and the radial gap in the first gap portion is substantially constant in an axial direction. The outer circumferential surface that defines the second gap portion is a conical outer circumferential surface reduced in diameter as approaching the inward flange portion of the core metal in the axial direction, and the radial gap in the second gap portion is gradually increased as approaching the inward flange portion of the core metal in the axial direction.

  • Patent number: 10449704
    Abstract: The present invention is intended to provide an injection molding die that improves the strength of adhesion between an insert and a plastic in an insert molded article while suppressing fluctuations in the strength of adhesion. An injection molding die is used to manufacture an insert molded article by placing an insert 12 with a thermoset resin adhesive in the molding die and injecting a molten plastic material P from a gate G into a cavity C. The gate G is arranged at a position separated by 0.2 mm or more in an out-of-plane direction from a surface A1 of the adhesive applied to the joining surface of the insert 12. During injection molding, the wall surface shear stress generated on the adhesive applied to the joining surface of the insert 12 relative to the plastic near the gate G becomes small. The adhesive is not swept away by the high-pressure molten plastic material P without having to bring the adhesive applied to the joining surface A of the insert 12 into the semi-cured state.

  • Patent number: 6279439
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a one-way clutch cage allows slits of the cage to be formed with a short punching distance, wherein the slits are narrow in width and the cage is less prone to deformation. In this method for manufacturing a one-way clutch cage, after slits 8, 10, 11, 12 have been formed, windows 17 are formed and then an outer annular part 18 is cut. Therefore, since the slits can be formed in a cylindrical member 2 that has not yet been subjected to the window formation process of the outer annular part cut-out process, and that is sufficiently strong, a radially diagonal punching operation can be performed to form the slits. During this radially diagonal punching operation, a boundary portion between a cylindrical portion 3 and an outer flange 5 is punched out from an inside of the cylindrical member toward an outside of the cylindrical member.

  • Patent number: 5699946
    Abstract: A vulcanized sheet S1 having formed therein annular articles P1 is prepared at first, which sheet comprises thick external bridges (16) in a thin annular zone (14) and at regular angular intervals so that the bridges connect an external flash (13) to a body (15) of the sheet. A recess (22) is formed centrally of an inner waste (20) surrounded by each article. Then, a guide lug (34) is inserted in the recess to correctly position the article, before tearing by of a first punch (35) an inner breakable boundary (26) intervening between the article and the inner waste so as to remove the inner waste from the article. Next, a further guide lug (44) is inserted in a space from which the inner waste has been removed, a die having a bore (31a) of a diameter larger than the article supports the sheet, and finally a second punch (45) tears an outer breakable boundary (12) to separate the article from the sheet.
