Abstract

PURPOSE:To form a tooth profile of sheet metal high in rigidity by fitting a preformed material to be worked to a die wherein a tooth profile to be formed is formed and compressing the material to be worked with a punch from the inside. CONSTITUTION:The peripheral surface of a bottomed cylindrical material 15 to be worked is preformed into a shape 15b corresponding to a tooth profile 1b to be formed. Then, this material 15 to be worked is fitted to a die 11 wherein the tooth profile 11b to be formed is made and pressed by the punches 12, 13 from the inside of the material 15 to be worked. The material 15 to be worked is expanded by this compression and the part corresponding to the preformed tooth profile 15b is forced into the tooth profile 11b of the die 11 to obtain a sheet metal gear high in accuracy.

FIG. 1 shows a press device used in the method of the present invention, and the press device IO includes a mold (die) 11 and punches 12 and 13.
A hole 11a for forming a gear is formed in the mold 11, and tooth profiles 11b (Fig. 3) are carved on the inner surface at a predetermined pitch along the circumferential direction. . As shown in an enlarged view in FIG. 5, each tooth portion 11c is formed in the shape of a roof, with the peak at the center of the peak 11c and slightly tapered toward both sides at a flow angle θ. This flow angle θ is determined by the tooth profile 11 when forming the tooth profile.
This is to give fluidity to the workpiece, and is set at an extremely small angle of about 1 to 2 degrees.

After the attachment of the workpiece 15 to the mold 11 is completed in this way, the punch 12 is lowered to attach the workpiece 15 to the mold 11.
Press fit inside. As a result, the workpiece 15 is pressurized from the inside as shown by arrows in FIG. 3, and each tooth profile 15b is press-fitted into each tooth profile 11b of the mold 11. At this time, since each tooth 11c of the mold 11 is provided with a flow angle θ, the portion that comes into pressure contact with the peak 11c of the workpiece 15 is pushed to the left and right sides along the inclined surface as shown by the arrow, resulting in a tooth shape. 15b
It flows into the tooth profile 11b of the mold 11 together with the part. As a result, the tooth profile 15b of the workpiece 15 is the same as the tooth profile 1 of the mold 11.
1b is sufficiently filled, and the mold 11 is completely filled as shown in FIG.
A highly accurate tooth 15b' corresponding to the tooth profile 11b is formed.
