摘要: A method for manufacturing a hollow spring member having a hollow steel spring rod having terminal sealed portions at both ends thereof. Each terminal sealed portion has a rotationally symmetric shape in which an axis passing through a center of the spring rod is an axis of symmetry. Each terminal sealed portion has an end wall portion including an end face; an arc-shaped smoothly curved surface between an outer peripheral surface of the spring rod and the end face, and a hermetically closed distal-end-center closure portion on the axis passing through the center of the spring rod. The method includes forming each of the end portions of the spring rod by forming a chamfered portion on an inner or outer peripheral side of the end portion of a hollow wire, the end portion having an opening portion at a distal end, heating the end portion of the hollow wire having the chamfered portion, and spinning the heated end portion to be gathered toward the axis from the outer peripheral side by a jig. The end wall portion, which includes the distal-end-center closure portion, is formed by the distal end of the end portion being joined together on the axis.

摘要: A plate material has a first portion, a second portion, and a fracture portion connecting the first portion and the second portion, and is separated into the first portion and the second portion by tearing the fracture portion. The first portion and the second portion are arranged in a first direction. The fracture portion has thin portions arranged in a second direction crossing the first direction. Widths in the second direction of the thin portions are different from each other.

摘要: A terminal sealed portion is formed on an end portion of a hollow rod made of steel. An enclosed space is formed on an inner side of the hollow rod. At an end of the enclosed space, a terminal gap is formed. A volatile powdered rust inhibitor is supplied in the enclosed space. As the volatile powdered rust inhibitor is vaporized, the enclosed space is turned into a rust-inhibiting atmosphere. As the vaporized component of the volatile powdered rust inhibitor is adsorbed to an inner surface of the enclosed space, an inner surface rust-inhibiting film is formed. The vaporized component also enters inside the terminal gap, and forms a terminal rust-inhibiting film.

摘要: This outboard motor control device controls a plurality of outboard motors disposed on a rear portion of a hull of a boat. Each of the outboard motors includes a propulsion unit and a steering actuator. A boat includes an operation unit configured to operate the steering actuator and the propulsion unit. The operation unit is able to be positioned at a first position where the outboard motors do not generate a propulsion force of the boat and a second position where the outboard motors generate a propulsion force for moving the boat in a left-right direction. When the operation unit is moved from the first position to the second position and maintained at the second position, the outboard motors generate a first propulsion force during a first period from a first timing when the operation unit is moved to the second position to a second timing and subsequently generate a second propulsion force greater than the first propulsion force during a second period after the second timing.

摘要: As first-time laser irradiation is performed on a workpiece, an initial nugget is formed. By emitting a laser beam for the second time at the initial nugget, a diameter of a back-side nugget portion is increased. A nugget includes a front-side nugget portion formed in a first plate, the back-side nugget portion formed in a second plate, and an annular flat surface portion. The flat surface portion is along a boundary portion between the first plate and the second plate. In a thicknesswise cross section of the second plate, a tilt angle of a peripheral surface of the back-side nugget portion is increased as a thicknesswise position of the peripheral surface approximates to a rear face of the second plate.
