  • Patent number: 11498127
    Abstract: A die having a cavity and a lower punch fitted into the cavity. The cavity is divided and the parts slide along a division plane passing through the cavity parallel to the fitting direction of the die and the lower punch. The divided cavity parts are placed in a state of alignment along the division plane. The divided cavity parts are each filled with raw material powder. The die and the lower punch are then slid along the division plane, whereby the divided cavity parts are combined as the original cavity. The raw material powder in the cavity in a combined state is compressed by an upper punch and the lower punch.

  • Publication number: 20220001446
    Abstract: A sintered component forming step is for forming a sintered component by powder molding. An insert forming step is for forming a sintered insert component in which an exterior component is integrated on an outer peripheral portion of the sintered component. One or more grooves or ridges are formed on an outer peripheral portion of a region except for one end portion of the sintered component in the sintered component forming step. The insert forming step includes a step for bringing the outer peripheral portion of the end portion into contact with an inner peripheral surface of an insert forming mold along a circumferential direction and covering the one or more grooves or ridges by the insert forming mold with an interval to form a cavity on an outer peripheral portion of the sintered component and a step for filling a melted material in the cavity.
