Patent number: 11059397Abstract: A recliner according to one aspect of the present disclosure includes a plate-shaped ratchet, at least one pawl, a plate-shaped guide member, and a ratchet seating portion. The ratchet seating portion is provided on the guide member to be positioned on an inner peripheral side of a second flange and between two guide walls adjacent to each other in a circumferential direction on the guide member. The ratchet seating portion protrudes toward the first flange of the ratchet and is configured to come into sliding contact with a tip of the first flange.Type: GrantFiled: May 14, 2019Date of Patent: July 13, 2021Assignee: TOYOTA BOSHOKU KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventor: Yuta Yamakita

Patent number: 10974302Abstract: Provided is a manufacturing method for a cylindrical portion in a cylindrical shape protruding in a plate thickness direction of a plate-like portion made of metal, the cylindrical portion being formed integrally with the plate-like portion. The manufacturing method uses a manufacturing device including: a first metal mold provided with an inner circumferential surface that comes in contact with an outer circumferential surface of the cylindrical portion; a second metal mold coming in contact with a protruding tip of the cylindrical portion; and a third metal mold coming into press contact with a workpiece toward a side of the second metal mold. The third metal mold is displaced toward the side of the second metal mold and a portion of the workpiece undergoes plastic flow toward the inner circumferential surface, whereby the portion that underwent the plastic flow comes into press contact with the inner circumferential surface.Type: GrantFiled: May 25, 2018Date of Patent: April 13, 2021Assignee: TOYOTA BOSHOKU KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventor: Yuta Yamakita

Publication number: 20200290107Abstract: A stamping apparatus includes a die, a punch, a back-pressure device, a lift-up mechanism, and a delay device. A workpiece is mounted on the die. The punch is arranged to approach and recede from the die and configured to punch out a product from the workpiece. The back-pressure device includes a pushing member disposed in the die and urges the pushing member toward the punch to apply back pressure to the workpiece. The lift-up mechanism is configured to lift the workpiece above the die when the punch recedes from the die. The delay device is configured to delay lifting movement of the pushing member in relation to receding movement of the punch when the punch recedes from the die.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 5, 2020Publication date: September 17, 2020Applicant: TOYOTA BOSHOKU KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Shigeo SUMIYAMA, Yuta YAMAKITA, Taira ITO
