A rotary press device (33) includes a restriction section (36) configured to restrict a motion of a roll (30) around a central axis of a roll (30) against movement of the roll (30) around a central axis of a hub main body (8) during rotary forging. In an example, the restriction section (36) has guide teeth (44) meshed with teeth formed on a processing surface of the roll (30).

A tooth shape of the first tooth-shaped die part is formed have a constant tooth width from an upper end to a lower end and to correspond to a tooth width of a part in which a desired crowning has been produced. A tooth shape of the second tooth-shaped die part is formed to have a constant tooth width from an upper end to a lower end and to correspond to a tooth width of a central part, which is a part other than the part in which the desired crowning has been produced. A crowning forming method includes the steps of: forming a tooth shape on an outer circumference of the material by the tooth shape of the first tooth-shaped die part; and pressing the central part of the tooth shape of the material against the tooth shape of the inner circumference of the second tooth-shaped die part.

A method for forming an assembly having a housing and first and second components. The first and second components are movable relative to one another in the housing. The method includes: providing first and second workpieces; moving the first and second workpieces relative to one another in a predetermined manner that produces relative sliding contact between the first and second workpieces while performing a superfinishing operation on the first and second workpieces to form the first and second components, respectively, wherein the superfinishing operation does not comprise a lapping operation; and mounting the first and second components in the housing such that the first and second components are engaged to one another and are movable relative to one another in the predetermined manner.

To provide a rotating member and a forming method thereof that allow formation of protrusions biting into an opposite surface to achieve high slip torque with a simple configuration. The rotating member includes a boss part and an anti-slip surface at least on one of both axial end faces of the boss part. The anti-slip surface has a plurality of corrugated rib parts, which includes a main groove and at least one auxiliary groove extending parallel to the main groove, with a ridge protruding higher than the anti-slip surface between the main groove and the auxiliary groove.
