    Abstract: In the peripheral length correction device of metal rings, a metal ring is laid on a driving roller and a driven roller which are displaceable in mutually separating directions. One or both of the rollers are displaced while rotating the rollers, thereby applying tensile stress to the metal ring to correct the peripheral length thereof. The peripheral length correction device of metal rings further comprises a foreign substance removal head, which functions as the removal means for removing foreign substances adhered to the inner peripheral surface of the metal ring, and as the re-adhesion prevention means for preventing re-adhesion of the foreign substances removed by the removal means from the metal ring. There is provided a peripheral length correction device of metal rings which can prevent the reduction in production yield without damaging the rollers even if foreign substances (residual pieces of cutting metal or the like) adhere to the surface of the metal ring in a preceding process (solution treatment or the like) prior to the correction process.

    Abstract: In a process for forming a linking element for a push belt for a continuously variable transmission, material is displaced from a central portion of the linking element during a blanking process, which central portion is substantially centrally located in the horizontal transverse direction. A blanking member which is applied during the blanking process, comprises a shaping surface which abuts against a front surface or a back surface of the linking element under the influence of pressure during the blanking process. The blanking member is provided with a relatively elevated central portion, which serves to displace material from the central portion of the linking element during the blanking process.

    Abstract: An element includes a body having a thin region in its substantially half lower portion and a head joined to the body by a neck. When the element is blanked out of a metal sheet, an excess amount of metal produced by pressing the substantially half lower portion of the body under a pressing load applied by a forming punch and a counter load applied by a counterpunch flows from the body into the metal sheet positioned on opposite side of the neck, and a metal flow is produced into laterally spaced ends of the neck. After the metal flows have occurred, the element is fully blanked out of the metal sheet by the forming punch. In the element, the head has relatively thick laterally spaced ends, and the head and the body have respective thicknesses equal to or smaller than the thickness of the head. The body includes a substantially half upper portion exclusive of the thin region, and has laterally spaced side end regions positioned on opposite side of a lower region of the neck. The laterally spaced side end regions of the body have a thickness smaller than the thickness of the lower region of the neck in the substantially half upper portion of the body.
