続いて、図5の下図に示されるように、可動型40が上昇され、金型30が型開きされる。可動型40は、上昇されることで歯形部材12から分離される。また、この金型30の型開きの際には、図6の上図に示されるように、押出しピン56が上昇し、この押出しピン56により歯形部材12が第一の型32と共に上昇される。第一の型32が上昇すると、この第一の型32に形成された係止部58が固定型38に形成された被係止部60に係止され、第一の型32の上昇が規制される。
(Mold opening process)
Subsequently, as shown in the lower diagram of FIG. 5, the movable mold 40 is raised and the mold 30 is opened. The movable mold 40 is separated from the tooth profile member 12 by being raised. Further, when the mold 30 is opened, as shown in the upper diagram of FIG. 6, the push pin 56 is raised, and the tooth profile member 12 is raised together with the first die 32 by the push pin 56. . When the first die 32 is raised, the locking portion 58 formed on the first die 32 is locked to the locked portion 60 formed on the fixed die 38, and the rising of the first die 32 is restricted. Is done.

また、係止部58が被係止部60に係止されるまで歯形部材12が上昇すると、この歯形部材12が固定型38の成形面よりも上側に位置し、歯形部材12及び固定型38が分離される。このように、歯形部材12及び固定型38が分離された状態では、歯形部材12の本体部16の内側に空間62(逃がし空間62)が確保される。   Further, when the tooth profile member 12 is raised until the locking portion 58 is locked to the locked portion 60, the tooth profile member 12 is positioned above the molding surface of the fixed mold 38, and the tooth profile member 12 and the fixed mold 38. Are separated. Thus, in a state where the tooth profile member 12 and the fixed mold 38 are separated, a space 62 (relief space 62) is secured inside the main body portion 16 of the tooth profile member 12.

(離型工程)
そして、図6の下図に示されるように、第一の型32が本体部16の外周部に装着されたまま、押出しピン56がさらに上昇される。このとき、係止部58が被係止部60に係止されることにより第一の型32の上昇が規制されているので、歯形部材12が第一の型32に対して上方に押圧される。
(Release process)
Then, as shown in the lower diagram of FIG. 6, the push pin 56 is further raised while the first die 32 is mounted on the outer peripheral portion of the main body portion 16. At this time, since the rising of the first mold 32 is restricted by the locking portion 58 being locked to the locked portion 60, the tooth profile member 12 is pressed upward against the first mold 32. The

また、このときには、上述の如く、歯形部材12の本体部16の内側に空間62が確保されているため、押出しピン56に押圧された歯形部材12は、内側の空間62側へ変形される。そして、この歯形部材12は、内側の空間62側への変形を伴いながら第一の型32から離型される。また、歯形部材12は、円筒状の押出しピン56によって押圧されるため、本体部16の全周に亘って本体部16の内側の空間62側へ変形されながら第一の型32から離型される。   At this time, as described above, since the space 62 is secured inside the main body portion 16 of the tooth profile member 12, the tooth profile member 12 pressed by the push pin 56 is deformed toward the inner space 62 side. The tooth profile member 12 is released from the first mold 32 while being deformed toward the inner space 62 side. Further, since the tooth profile member 12 is pressed by the cylindrical extrusion pin 56, it is released from the first mold 32 while being deformed toward the space 62 inside the main body portion 16 over the entire circumference of the main body portion 16. The

なお、この離型工程において、第一の型32からの歯形部材12の離型は、歯形部材12が完全に固化する前の半固化状態で行われるのが望ましい。離型工程では、歯型部材が半固化状態とされることで、歯型部材が全周に亘って一気に離型される。この一次成形品である歯形部材12は、以上の要領で形成される。   In this mold release step, it is desirable that the tooth profile member 12 is released from the first mold 32 in a semi-solid state before the tooth profile member 12 is completely solidified. In the mold release step, the tooth mold member is brought into a semi-solid state, so that the tooth mold member is released all at once. The tooth profile member 12 that is the primary molded product is formed as described above.

(二次成形工程)
続いて、以上のようにして歯形部材12が形成された後、歯形部材12は、別の金型を用いて支持部材14と一体化される。すなわち、この支持部材14を成形する二次成形工程では、本体部16の内側に樹脂が充填され、この樹脂により歯形部材12と一体に支持部材14が形成される。また、この支持部材14が形成される際には、シャフト26が支持部材14と一体化される。
(Secondary molding process)
Subsequently, after the tooth profile member 12 is formed as described above, the tooth profile member 12 is integrated with the support member 14 using another mold. That is, in the secondary molding step of molding the support member 14, resin is filled inside the main body portion 16, and the support member 14 is formed integrally with the tooth profile member 12 by this resin. Further, when the support member 14 is formed, the shaft 26 is integrated with the support member 14.

次に、本発明の第一実施形態の作用及び効果について説明する。   Next, the operation and effect of the first embodiment of the present invention will be described.

以上詳述したように、本発明の第一実施形態によれば、歯車10を構成する歯形部材12の本体部16を円盤状ではなく枠状に形成する。そして、離型工程では、型開き工程において形成した本体部16の内側の空間62を利用し、歯形部材12を内側の空間62側へ変形させながら第一の型32から離型させる。従って、本体部16の外周部を成形する第一の型32を多分割したり、アンダーカット部20となる部分を成形後に切削したりする必要が無いので、歯形部材12を製造する金型30の構造を簡素化できると共に、製造工程の増加も抑制できる。この結果、コストダウンすることができる。   As described above in detail, according to the first embodiment of the present invention, the body portion 16 of the tooth profile member 12 constituting the gear 10 is formed in a frame shape instead of a disc shape. In the mold release step, the space 62 inside the main body 16 formed in the mold opening step is used to release the first profile 32 from the first mold 32 while deforming the tooth profile member 12 toward the space 62 inside. Therefore, it is not necessary to divide the first die 32 for molding the outer peripheral portion of the main body portion 16 into multiple parts or to cut the portion that becomes the undercut portion 20 after molding. The structure can be simplified, and an increase in the manufacturing process can be suppressed. As a result, the cost can be reduced.

また、成形工程では、歯形部材12の本体部16を円環形状に形成するので、歯形部材12の剛性を確保することができる。   Moreover, since the main-body part 16 of the tooth profile member 12 is formed in an annular shape in the molding step, the rigidity of the tooth profile member 12 can be ensured.

さらに、二次成形工程において、歯形部材12の本体部16の内側に支持部材14を一体に形成することにより、歯形部材12をその内側から支持部材14で支持することができる。これにより、歯形部材12の剛性を向上させることができる。   Furthermore, in the secondary molding step, by forming the support member 14 integrally inside the body portion 16 of the tooth profile member 12, the tooth profile member 12 can be supported by the support member 14 from the inside thereof. Thereby, the rigidity of the tooth profile member 12 can be improved.

次に、本発明の第一実施形態の変形例について説明する。   Next, a modification of the first embodiment of the present invention will be described.

上述の第一実施形態では、複数の歯18の歯先及び複数の歯18の間の歯底面にアンダーカット部20がそれぞれ形成されているが、アンダーカット部20は、複数の歯18の歯先及び複数の歯18の間の歯底面のどちらか一方にのみ形成されていても良い。   In the first embodiment described above, the undercut portions 20 are formed on the tooth tips of the plurality of teeth 18 and the tooth bottom surfaces between the plurality of teeth 18, respectively. It may be formed only on one of the root surfaces between the tip and the plurality of teeth 18.

また、アンダーカット部20は、複数の歯18の歯先、複数の歯18の間の歯底面、及び、複数の歯18の歯先と歯底面の間の歯面の少なくともいずれかに形成されても良い。   The undercut portion 20 is formed on at least one of the tooth tips of the plurality of teeth 18, the tooth bottom surface between the plurality of teeth 18, and the tooth surface between the tooth tip and the tooth bottom surface of the plurality of teeth 18. May be.

また、歯車10は、支持部材14を備えているが、例えば完全に固化した状態で歯形部材12の剛性を確保できる場合には、支持部材14が省かれても良い。   Moreover, although the gearwheel 10 is provided with the support member 14, when the rigidity of the tooth-shaped member 12 can be ensured, for example in the state solidified completely, the support member 14 may be omitted.

また、離型工程において、第一の型32からの歯形部材12の離型は、歯形部材12が完全に固化する前の半固化状態で行われるのが望ましいが、完全に固化した状態でも歯形部材12の変形が容易である場合には、歯形部材12の離型が歯形部材12の完全固化状態で行われても良い。   In the mold release process, it is desirable that the tooth profile member 12 is released from the first mold 32 in a semi-solid state before the tooth profile member 12 is completely solidified. When the deformation of the member 12 is easy, the tooth profile member 12 may be released while the tooth profile member 12 is completely solidified.

また、離型工程においては、歯形部材12が、押出しピン56によって押されることにより第一の型32から離型されるが、歯形部材12が固定された状態で第一の型32が歯形部材12に対して移動することにより、歯形部材12が第一の型32から離型されても良い。   Further, in the mold release step, the tooth profile member 12 is released from the first mold 32 by being pushed by the push pin 56, but the first mold 32 is the tooth profile member in a state where the tooth profile member 12 is fixed. The tooth profile member 12 may be released from the first mold 32 by moving relative to the first mold 32.

また、離型工程において、歯形部材12は、本体部16の全周に亘って本体部16の内側の空間62側へ変形されながら第一の型32から離型されるが、本体部16の周方向の一の部位から順に内側の空間62側へ変形されながら第一の型32から離型されても良い。   In the mold release step, the tooth profile member 12 is released from the first mold 32 while being deformed toward the space 62 inside the main body 16 over the entire circumference of the main body 16. The mold may be released from the first mold 32 while being deformed in order from one portion in the circumferential direction toward the inner space 62 side.

また、歯車10は、一例として、ウォームホイールとして構成されているが、ウォームホイール以外の歯車として構成されていても良い。   The gear 10 is configured as a worm wheel as an example, but may be configured as a gear other than the worm wheel.

また、歯形部材12は、一例として、樹脂により形成されているが、例えば、金属など樹脂以外の材料で形成されても良い。同様に、支持部材14も、本体部16の内側に充填される「充填材」の一例として樹脂により形成されているが、例えば、金属など樹脂以外の材料で形成されても良い。   Moreover, although the tooth-shaped member 12 is formed of resin as an example, it may be formed of a material other than resin such as metal. Similarly, the support member 14 is also formed of a resin as an example of a “filler” filled inside the main body 16, but may be formed of a material other than a resin such as a metal, for example.

[第二実施形態]
次に、本発明の第二実施形態について説明する。
[Second Embodiment]
Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described.

図7に示される本発明の第二実施形態に係る歯車70は、上述の第一実施形態に係る歯車10に対して、歯形部材12の構造が次のように変更されている。すなわち、図7,図8に示されるように、本発明の第二実施形態において、歯形部材12の本体部16は、その周方向の一部に分離部72を有するC字形状を成す枠状に形成されている。   In the gear 70 according to the second embodiment of the present invention shown in FIG. 7, the structure of the tooth profile member 12 is changed as follows with respect to the gear 10 according to the first embodiment described above. That is, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, in the second embodiment of the present invention, the body portion 16 of the tooth profile member 12 is a frame shape having a C shape having a separation portion 72 in a part of the circumferential direction. Is formed.

本発明の第二実施形態において、歯形部材12は、上述の第一実施形態における成形工程及び型開き工程と同様の工程を経て製造される。ただし、離型工程では、次のようにして歯形部材12が第一の型32から離型される。   In the second embodiment of the present invention, the tooth profile member 12 is manufactured through the same processes as the molding process and the mold opening process in the first embodiment described above. However, in the mold release step, the tooth profile member 12 is released from the first mold 32 as follows.

図9には、第二実施形態の離型工程において歯形部材12が第一の型32から離型される様子が示されている。この図9では、第二の型34の固定型38及び可動型40(図5,図6参照)は不図示とされている。第一の型32には、第一実施形態における円筒状の押出しピン76(図5,図6参照)の代わりに、複数の棒状の押出しピン76が設けられている。複数の押出しピン76は、本体部16の周方向に配列されている。   FIG. 9 shows how the tooth profile member 12 is released from the first mold 32 in the mold release step of the second embodiment. In FIG. 9, the fixed die 38 and the movable die 40 (see FIGS. 5 and 6) of the second die 34 are not shown. The first die 32 is provided with a plurality of rod-like push pins 76 instead of the cylindrical push pins 76 (see FIGS. 5 and 6) in the first embodiment. The plurality of push pins 76 are arranged in the circumferential direction of the main body portion 16.

そして、第二実施形態の離型工程では、本体部16の周方向の一端部に位置する押出しピン76から順に複数の押出しピン76が上昇される。これにより、歯形部材12が、本体部16の周方向の一端部から他端部へ順に本体部16の内側の空間62側へ変形させられながら第一の型32から離型される。   And in the mold release process of 2nd embodiment, the some extrusion pin 76 is raised in order from the extrusion pin 76 located in the one end part of the circumferential direction of the main-body part 16. As shown in FIG. As a result, the tooth profile member 12 is released from the first mold 32 while being deformed in order from one end portion in the circumferential direction of the main body portion 16 to the other end portion in the space 62 side inside the main body portion 16.

また、このようにしてC字状の本体部16を有するように形成された歯形部材12には、第一実施形態と同様の二次成形工程において、図7に示される支持部材14が一体に形成され、この歯形部材12及び支持部材14により、第二実施形態の歯車70が形成される。   In addition, the tooth-shaped member 12 formed to have the C-shaped main body portion 16 in this way is integrally provided with the support member 14 shown in FIG. 7 in the same secondary molding process as that of the first embodiment. The gear member 70 of the second embodiment is formed by the tooth profile member 12 and the support member 14.

このように、第二実施形態によれば、本体部16をC字形状に形成するので、離型工程において、歯形部材12を螺旋状に変形させながら容易に離型させることができる。   Thus, according to 2nd embodiment, since the main-body part 16 is formed in C shape, in a mold release process, it can be made to mold release easily, changing the tooth profile member 12 helically.

また、歯形部材12の本体部16の内側には、支持部材14が一体に形成されるので、C字形状に形成された歯形部材12をその内側から支持部材14で支持することができる。これにより、歯形部材12の剛性を確保することができる。   Moreover, since the support member 14 is integrally formed inside the main body portion 16 of the tooth profile member 12, the tooth profile member 12 formed in a C shape can be supported by the support member 14 from the inside thereof. Thereby, the rigidity of the tooth profile member 12 can be ensured.

また、第二実施形態のように、本体部16がC字形状に形成されていると、第一実施形態のように本体部16が円環形状に形成される場合に比して、本体部16の内周部における形状の設計の自由度を高めることができる。これにより、例えば、図10に示されるように、本体部16の内周部を、例えば、強度が高くなる形状にしたり、二次成形品である支持部材14との保持強度の高い形状にしたりすることができる。この第二実施形態では、一例として、歯形部材12からは上述の突出部24(図4参照)が省かれている。   In addition, when the main body portion 16 is formed in a C shape as in the second embodiment, the main body portion is compared with the case where the main body portion 16 is formed in an annular shape as in the first embodiment. The degree of freedom in designing the shape of the 16 inner peripheral portions can be increased. Thereby, for example, as shown in FIG. 10, the inner peripheral portion of the main body portion 16 is, for example, formed into a shape with high strength or a shape with high holding strength with the support member 14 that is a secondary molded product. can do. In the second embodiment, as an example, the above-described protruding portion 24 (see FIG. 4) is omitted from the tooth profile member 12.

なお、上述の第二実施形態において、歯車70がウォームホイールである場合、上述のC字形状の本体部16に形成された分離部72は、ウォームが乗り越え可能な寸法で形成されるのが望ましい。   In the second embodiment described above, when the gear 70 is a worm wheel, it is desirable that the separation portion 72 formed on the C-shaped main body portion 16 is formed with a size that allows the worm to get over. .

また、この分離部72には、二次成形工程において本体部16の内側に充填された充填剤の一部が充填されることにより、図11に示される如く本体部16の周方向の両端部を繋ぐ接続部78が形成されても良い。   Further, the separation portion 72 is filled with a part of the filler filled inside the main body portion 16 in the secondary molding step, so that both end portions in the circumferential direction of the main body portion 16 as shown in FIG. The connection part 78 which connects may be formed.

このように、本体部16の周方向の両端部を繋ぐ接続部78が形成されていると、C字形状に形成された本体部16の変形を抑制でき、歯形部材12の剛性を確保することができる。   Thus, when the connection part 78 which connects the both ends of the circumferential direction of the main-body part 16 is formed, the deformation | transformation of the main-body part 16 formed in C-shape can be suppressed, and the rigidity of the tooth profile member 12 is ensured. Can do.

また、上述の第二実施形態において、複数の歯18の歯先及び複数の歯18の間の歯底面にアンダーカット部20がそれぞれ形成されているが、アンダーカット部20は、複数の歯18の歯先及び複数の歯18の間の歯底面のどちらか一方にのみ形成されていても良い。   In the second embodiment described above, the undercut portions 20 are formed on the tooth tips of the plurality of teeth 18 and the tooth bottom surfaces between the plurality of teeth 18, respectively. It may be formed only on either one of the tooth tip and the tooth bottom surface between the plurality of teeth 18.

また、歯車70は、支持部材14を備えているが、例えば完全に固化した状態で歯形部材12の剛性を確保できる場合には、支持部材14が省かれても良い。   The gear 70 includes the support member 14. However, the support member 14 may be omitted when the rigidity of the tooth profile member 12 can be ensured in a completely solidified state, for example.

また、離型工程において、第一の型32からの歯形部材12の離型は、歯形部材12が完全に固化する前の半固化状態で行われるのが望ましいが、完全に固化した状態でも歯形部材12の変形が容易である場合には、歯形部材12の離型が歯形部材12の完全固化状態で行われても良い。   In the mold release process, it is desirable that the tooth profile member 12 is released from the first mold 32 in a semi-solid state before the tooth profile member 12 is completely solidified. When the deformation of the member 12 is easy, the tooth profile member 12 may be released while the tooth profile member 12 is completely solidified.

また、離型工程においては、歯形部材12が、押出しピン76によって押されることにより第一の型32から離型されるが、歯形部材12が固定された状態で第一の型32が歯形部材12に対して移動することにより、歯形部材12が第一の型32から離型されても良い。   Further, in the mold release step, the tooth profile member 12 is released from the first mold 32 by being pushed by the push pin 76. However, the first mold 32 is the tooth profile member in a state where the tooth profile member 12 is fixed. The tooth profile member 12 may be released from the first mold 32 by moving relative to the first mold 32.

また、歯車70は、一例として、ウォームホイールとして構成されているが、ウォームホイール以外の歯車10として構成されていても良い。   The gear 70 is configured as a worm wheel as an example, but may be configured as a gear 10 other than the worm wheel.

また、第二実施形態において、歯形部材12は、一例として、樹脂により形成されているが、例えば、金属など樹脂以外の材料で形成されても良い。同様に、支持部材14も、本体部16の内側に充填される充填材の一例として樹脂により形成されているが、例えば、金属など樹脂以外の材料で形成されても良い。   Moreover, in 2nd embodiment, although the tooth-shaped member 12 is formed with resin as an example, for example, you may form with materials other than resin, such as a metal. Similarly, the support member 14 is also formed of a resin as an example of a filler that fills the inside of the main body 16, but may be formed of a material other than a resin such as metal, for example.

以上、本発明の第一及び第二実施形態について説明したが、本発明は、上記に限定されるものでなく、上記以外にも、その主旨を逸脱しない範囲内において種々変形して実施可能であることは勿論である。   The first and second embodiments of the present invention have been described above.
