Equipment including a rigid plate provided with a plurality of cutters configured to be impressed in sequence against a swaged annular collar of an inner ring of a wheel hub, the collar being formed with a first radial profile; the cutters sliding axially through the plate and towards a first face of the plate resting in abutment against the collar; wherein the first face of the plate is provided in the region of the cutters with a concave annular seat having a second radial profile configured to copy at least partly the first radial profile of the collar, the annular seat being configured to be passed through by the cutters during the step for impression against the collar and to contain any radial flow of the metallic material which forms the collar.

A press-formed body (15) made of a high-tensile strength steel sheet of 390 MPa or more including a groove bottom part (15a), ridge line parts (15b, 15b) continuous to the groove bottom part (15a), and side wall parts (15c, 15c) continuous to the ridge line parts (15b, 15b), and in which an outward flange (16) is formed at an end part in a longitudinal direction is manufactured by a press-forming apparatus including a punch (11), a die (12), and a pad (14) which presses and binds a press-forming material (13) to the punch (11), thereby forming the press-formed body (15) without providing cutouts at a ridge line part flange portion of the outward flange, or generating lowering of material yield.

A method of manufacturing a mechanical part of the present invention includes a first process of forming, by performing a folding processing to an end portion of the material, a portion to be processed having a structure, in which a plurality of layers respectively having a thickness corresponding to a plate thickness of a material overlap each other, in the material such that a plate thickness direction of the layer is orthogonal to a plate thickness direction of the material; and a second process of changing, by performing a forging processing to the portion to be processed, a shape of the portion to be processed to a target shape while press-welding the layers of the portion to be processed to each other by plastic deformation.

A liquid cooled coldplate has a tub with an inlet port and an outlet port and a plurality of pockets recessed within a top surface of the tub. Each pocket has a peripheral opening and a ledge, the ledge disposed inwardly and downwardly from the peripheral opening. The inlet port and outlet port are in fluid communication with the pocket via an inlet slot and an outlet slot. A plurality of cooling plates are each received by a pocket and recessed within the pocket. Each cooling plate comprises an electronics side for receiving electronics and enhanced side for cooling the cooling plate. The enhanced side of the cooling plate comprises a plurality of pins formed by micro deformation technology. The tub may be formed by extrusion.

In a center hole forming method, an object to be processed is inserted in a die hole and a shaft is drawn from the object. A load toward a first axial end surface of the object is applied to a second axial end surface of the object without taking out the object from the die hole. A diameter of the first axial end surface is smaller than a diameter of the second axial end surface. A center hole is formed in the first axial end surface by pressing a counter punch against the first axial end surface in a state that the load is applied to the second axial end surface.

The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a bifurcated pipe and a bifurcated connector for connecting hoses and a fuel supply hose manufactured using the same, in which connection between a torch and an oxygen tank or a gas tank is facilitated and hoses are prevented from becoming twisted or entangled during a welding or cutting process.

Further, according to the present invention, a single connection hose is prevented from being damaged by sparks, a piece of steel cut off the workpiece, a discarded welding rod, or a sharp cut surface or edge of the workpiece, and a worker is capable of easily recognizing gas leakage and a portion from which gas is leaking, thereby preventing an accident.

To provide a method of manufacturing a shaft for a steering device, the shaft including a spline shaft part to be coupled with an input shaft, a stopper part to be coupled with an output shaft, and an intermediate shaft part that couples the spline shaft part with the stopper part. The method includes: a step of forming a hole part recessed in an axial direction from one end of a pillar-shaped material by forging; and a step of pressing the material in which the hole part has been formed into a die to perform drawing in a radial direction on a portion of the material at which the stopper part is formed and prolonging a length along the axial direction of the hole part at the same time by forging.

A ball screw is provided in which an outer circumferential formation is formed at a portion facing a ball circulating passage out of outer circumferential surface of a nut. The ball screw includes: a screw shaft having on its outer circumferential surface a screw groove; a nut having on its inner circumferential surface a screw groove facing the screw groove; a plurality of balls rollably loaded in a spiral ball rolling passage formed by both screw grooves; and a ball circulating passage to return the balls from a start point to an end point of the ball rolling passage for recirculation. The ball circulating passage is a concaved groove formed by concaving a groove on a part of the cylindrical inner circumferential surface of the nut by plastic working. Then, a flange is integrally provided at a portion facing the ball circulating passage and the screw groove.
