Patent number: 11389855Abstract: The end portion of a first member includes a plate part and a groove. The end portion of a second member includes an edge and two side surfaces. The groove extends around the edge of the second member and the two side surfaces. The groove includes a side surface including an engaging portion. One of the side surfaces of the end portion of the second member includes an engaged portion. A method for manufacturing a swaged structure includes preparing the first member including the plate part and the groove having a wide opening. The method further includes inserting the end portion of the second member into the groove after preparing the first member. The method further includes pressing the plate part in a direction narrowing the opening of the groove to bring the engaging portion into contact with the engaged portion after inserting the second member.Type: GrantFiled: November 14, 2018Date of Patent: July 19, 2022Assignees: AISIN CORPORATION, HISADA CO., LTD.Inventors: Koji Yamamoto, Yohei Amemiya, Takashi Harada, Masashi Saeki, Masahiro Hashiguchi, Yasuchika Sasaki

Patent number: 11060565Abstract: A screw nut on which a pulley is mounted is capable of promoting reductions in the size and weight thereof. The screw nut includes: an outer ring; and a nut rotatably assembled to the outer ring via a first rolling element. The nut includes: a nut body having a screw groove in an inner surface thereof; and a recirculation component provided at an end portion of the nut body in an axial direction, the recirculation component having a turn-around path for recirculating a second rolling element rolling along a screw groove. A pulley to be mounted on the nut is fitted on an outer surface of the nut body, and is brought into contact with an end surface of the nut in the axial direction. The pulley is mounted on the end surface of the nut with a fastening member.Type: GrantFiled: October 18, 2018Date of Patent: July 13, 2021Assignee: THK CO., LTD.Inventor: Yohei Amemiya

Patent number: 10914365Abstract: A ball screw spline with reduced size and weight includes: a shaft formed in such a manner that a helical ball screw groove and a straight ball spline groove intersect each other; a ball screw nut having a helical ball screw groove facing the ball screw groove in the shaft, the ball screw nut being configured to allow recirculating a screw ball fitting in the ball screw groove in the shaft; and a ball spline outer race having a straight ball spline groove facing the ball spline groove in the shaft, the ball spline outer race being configured to allow recirculating a spline ball fitting in the ball spline groove in the shaft. The ball screw groove in the shaft is made as deep as or deeper than the ball spline groove in the shaft, and the screw ball is made smaller in diameter than the spline ball.Type: GrantFiled: November 12, 2018Date of Patent: February 9, 2021Assignee: THK CO., LTD.Inventor: Yohei Amemiya
