A method of manufacturing a sheave member for a belt-type continuously variable transmission includes a forming step wherein an intermediate product having a sheave surface is formed by forging a steel material; a carburization step wherein the intermediate product is heated in a carburization gas; a gradual cooling step wherein the cooling speed is equal to or less than 20° C./sec, at least until the temperature of the intermediate product has passed through the transformation point; a high-frequency electrical heating step wherein a selected portion(s) of the intermediate product is heated; a water quenching step wherein the selected portion is quenched by contact with water; and a finishing step wherein a grinding process is applied to the intermediate product to attain the final shape. In the cooling step, preferably, the intermediate product is contacted with a cooling gas at a pressure lower than atmospheric pressure.

The present invention provides a method for induction hardening of a steel member having an outer ring portion and, more specifically, for induction hardening of an outer circumferential surface of the outer ring portion. The method uses two pressing members, each of which includes a flat basal surface and a projecting portion projecting therefrom. Each of the projecting portions has a cross-section in the shape of a perfect circle. Also, the projecting portions have, on the outer circumferences thereof, respective pressing surfaces. While gaps are maintained between axial end faces of the outer ring portion and the basal surfaces of the pressing members, the pressing members are pressed against the outer ring portion so that the pressing surfaces each abut against the inner circumference side of the outer ring portion. While a biasing force is applied to the pressing members, the induction hardening process is applied to the outer circumferential surface. During the induction hardening process, the pressing members are moved toward each other until the basal surfaces abut against respective axial end faces of the outer ring portion.

A method of carburizing and quenching a steel member includes: a reduced pressure carburization step in which a steel member is contacted with carburization gas under reduced pressure, a slow cooling step in which the steel member is then slowly cooled in a cooling gas, and a quenching step of heating a selected portion of the cooled steel member using high-density energy and subsequently subjecting the selected portion to rapid cooling. The steel member subjected to the low-pressure carburization step includes a first portion in which a diffusion rate of carbon taken therein during carburization is high because of its shape and a second portion in which the diffusion rate of carbon is lower than that of the first portion. The reduced-pressure carburization step is controlled to give a carbon concentration at the surface of the first portion in a range of 0.65±0.1 weight % after diffusion.

A pickup device (5) is provided with a pickup body (51) as a case; a heat source (61) thermally connected to the pickup body; and an optical component (13), which is fixed to the pickup body by a plurality of fixing sections including at least two fixing sections (131, 132) which are at different distances from the heat source and belong to the pickup body. The pickup body is provided with at least one of slits (100, 101) having prescribed widths, in a direction of reducing a binding force (F) which is a factor of preventing at last one fixing section (132) of the two fixing sections from being displaced due to thermal expansion in accordance with the distance from the heat source.
