Abstract: A thin film member forming device includes a reference roll fixedly disposed while being rotatably supported by a first bearing member, a movable roll disposed movably with respect to the reference roll while being rotatably supported by a second bearing member, a roll gap adjusting mechanism which adjusts a gap between the reference roll and the movable roll and a roll opening mechanism which expands the gap. The roll gap adjusting mechanism adds a load in a direction to narrow the gap to the second bearing member, and the roll opening mechanism adds a load in a direction to expand the gap to the second bearing member.

Abstract: A sheet film forming roll is manufactured by processing a thin cylindrical work used as an external cylinder of the sheet film forming roll by holding the thin cylindrical work using a holding jig and machining an outer peripheral surface of the thin cylindrical work. The holding jig includes a holding member, a diameter changing unit, and a pair of circular side plates. The holding member is made of a metal and has a cylindrical shape and an elastically expandable or contractible diameter. An outside diameter of the holding member is held smaller than an inside diameter of the thin cylindrical work for insertion of the holding member into an inner periphery of the thin cylindrical work and expanded after insertion of the holding member into the inner periphery of the thin cylindrical work to hold the thin cylindrical work from an inner peripheral side of the thin cylindrical work.

Abstract: A method for processing a thin cylindrical work includes holding the work using a holding jig. The jig includes a cylindrical holding member which holds the work from an inner peripheral side and a diameter changing unit which changes a diameter of the holding member. The metal holding member has an elastically expandable or contractible diameter. The outside diameter of the holding member is held smaller than an inside diameter of the work when inserted into an inner periphery of the work and is expanded after insertion. The diameter changing unit applies at least one of an axial external force in a compressing direction or an axial external force in a tensile direction to both ends of the holding member to change the diameter of the holding member.

Abstract: A holding jig for a thin cylindrical work (W) includes a holding member (10, 10A, 10B) which holds the work (W) from an inner peripheral side and a diameter changing unit (25, 27) which changes a diameter of the holding member (10, 10A, 10B). The holding member (10, 10A, 10B) is made of metal and has a cylindrical shape and an elastically expandable or contractible diameter. The holding member (10, 10A, 10B) is configured with an outside diameter of the holding member (10, 10A, 10B) being held smaller than an inside diameter of the work (W) at the time of insertion into an inner periphery of the work (W) and being expanded after inserted into the inner periphery of the work (W) to hold the work (W) from an inner peripheral side of the work (W) with an outer peripheral surface in close contact with an entire inner peripheral surface of the work (W).
