摘要:
Provided are a forging method, a forged-product molding apparatus, and a tripod type constant velocity universal joint which contribute to reduction of shear drop and avoidance of an increase in processing load generated through contact of a leading end surface of a shaft portion and dies even when an excessively-heavy raw material is mixed so that a life of the die can be prolonged. After molding a product-to-be-preliminarily-molded to form a preliminarily molded product (20A) as a material, the preliminarily molded product (20A) is put into a full-enclosed forging die (30) so that a product is molded with the full-enclosed forging die (30). On a preliminary leading-end surface to be formed as a leading end surface (17a) of a shaft portion (17) of the product formed of the preliminarily molded product (20A), there is formed a shear-drop suppressing portion (65) for suppressing thickness reduction on a boss-portion side of an outer peripheral portion of the leading end surface (17a) of the shaft portion (17) of the product (16). At a time of putting the preliminarily molded product (20A) into the full-enclosed forging die (30) so as to mold the product (16), a relief portion (26) is formed between the leading end surface (17a) of the shaft portion (17) to be formed and a cavity (24) of the full-enclosed forging die (30).

A forging method and a full-enclosed forging die contribute to the alleviation of an enclosing force applied to dies and in which a relatively small enclosing apparatus can be used even with respect to larger-sized products. A tripod type constant velocity universal joint is formed with a tripod member molded with the full-enclosed forging die. The full-enclosed forging die includes openable/closable dies and punches for pressing a material between the dies. From the forging die, the tripod member including a boss portion and shaft portions protruded radially from the boss portion is molded.

After molding a preliminarily molded product as a material, the preliminarily molded product is put into a full-enclosed forging die so that a product is molded with the full-enclosed forging die. A shear-drop suppressing portion for suppressing thickness reduction on a boss-portion side of an outer peripheral portion of a leading end surface of each of shaft portions of the product is formed on the preliminary leading-end surface configuring a leading end surface of each of the shaft portions of the product in the preliminarily molded product. When the preliminarily molded product is put into the full-enclosed forging die and the product is to be molded, a relief portion is formed between the leading end surface of each of the shaft portions to be molded and a cavity of the full-enclosed forging die.

A manufacturing method for a tripod type constant velocity universal joint includes, when forging a raw-shaped material corresponding to each of three journals into a journal shape using a molding surface of a die and in a state where a relief portion is provided on a raw-shaped-material-leading-end-side of the die, molding an outer peripheral surface of the raw-shaped material into a projected round shape. The molding occurring with a tapered surface formed on the molding surface with which the outer peripheral surface of the raw-shaped material is held in contact and a recessed round surface formed between the molding surface and the tapered surface.

Provided is a manufacturing method for a tripod type constant velocity universal joint including: an outer joint member having an inner peripheral surface provided with: three track grooves extending in an axial direction; and roller-guide surfaces extending in the axial direction on both sides of each of the three track grooves; a tripod member including three journals each projected into a radial direction; and a roller unit supported rotatably around each of the three journals of the tripod member and inserted rollably in each of the three track grooves of the outer joint member, the manufacturing method including, when forging a raw-shaped material corresponding to each of the three journals into a journal shape with use of a molding surface of a die, under a state in which a relief portion is provided on a raw-shaped-material-leading-end-side of the die, molding an outer peripheral surface of the raw-shaped material into a projected round shape with use of a tapered surface formed on the molding surface with which the outer peripheral surface of the raw-shaped material is held in contact and a recessed round surface formed between the molding surface and the tapered surface.

Provided are a forging method and a full-enclosed forging die which contribute to alleviation of an enclosing force applied to dies and in which a relatively small enclosing apparatus can be used even with respect to larger-sized products. Further, provided is a tripod type constant velocity universal joint using a tripod member molded with such a full-enclosed forging die. Using a full-enclosed forging die including openable/closable dies (11, 12) and punches (14, 15) for pressing a material between the dies (11, 12), a product (tripod member) (16) including a boss portion (18) and shaft portions (17) protruded radially from the boss portion (18) is molded. A projection area in a boss-portion axial direction toward a die (11, 12) side of the boss portion (18) is made to be smaller than another projection area in the boss-portion axial direction toward the die side, the another projection area being defined when a radially outer surface is formed as a single convex curved surface about a boss-portion axial center.

A tripod type constant velocity universal joint includes an outer joint member including three track grooves having roller-guide surfaces arranged to face each other in a circumferential direction, a tripod member including three leg shafts projecting in a radial direction, and roller units each including a roller and an inner ring for supporting the roller in a freely rotatable manner. The inner ring is externally fitted to a corresponding one of the three leg shafts. The roller is movable along the roller-guide surfaces of a corresponding one of the three track grooves. Each of the three leg shafts includes a region formed into a substantially circular-arc shape in horizontal cross-section that is orthogonal to an axial line of each of the three leg shafts.
