Abstract: In a method of manufacturing a permanent magnet having a curved surface, a permeating material including metal particles and a flux is applied to the curved surface of a magnet. The magnet to which the permeating material is applied is then positioned within a furnace and the furnace is placed in a vacuum or filled with inert gas to volatilize a solvent and the like of the flux contained in the permeating material. The furnace is set to be a temperature within a range of 300 through 500 degrees C. to heat the permeating material. This enables the flux to be carbonized to form reticulated carbon. The furnace is then set to be a temperature within a range of 500 through 800 degrees C. to melt the metal particles in the permeating material, thereby permeating the melted metal particles into the magnet through the reticulated carbon uniformly.

Abstract: A sliding member having a supporting layer composed of an iron-based metallic material and a sliding layer formed on a surface of the supporting layer and composed of a copper-based metallic material. The surface of the supporting layer and the sliding layer have non-flat surfaces. A sliding surface having a non-flat surface is formed on the surface of the sliding layer. The sliding layer is formed on the roughened surface of the supporting layer by thermal spraying. The surface of the sliding layer is then subjected to a shot blasting treatment to form the sliding surface which has an uneven surface having an arithmetic average roughness (Ra) of more than 0 ?m and 2.0 ?m or less, a ten-point average roughness (Rz) of more than 0 ?m and 7.5 ?m or less and a surface hardness (Hv) of 150-250, and which slidably supports an object to be slid.
