Title:
METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING LEAF SPRINGS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/155283
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The disclosed method for manufacturing leaf springs can improve the durability of eyes of said leaf springs, improve productivity, and decrease manufacturing costs. When forming a gap (115), the front edge (113) of an eye section (112) is formed across from an opposing section (114) such that said front edge (113) does not intersect straight lines (L1 and L2) that connect center points (S1 and S2) of rebound-member rebound surfaces to a point (T1) where the aforementioned opposing section (114) intersects a line (H1) that is perpendicular to said opposing section and passes through the leaf(111)-side corner (113A) of the aforementioned front edge (113). During shot peening of the inner surface of the eye section (112), shot rebounding from the aforementioned rebound surfaces flies towards the opposing section (114) at the gap (115), covering the entire surface there. Also, when forming the eye section (112), the disclosed manufacturing method obviates the need for a step to cut the aforementioned front edge.
