Abstract
To provide a rotating member and a forming method thereof that allow formation of protrusions biting into an opposite surface to achieve high slip torque with a simple configuration. The rotating member includes a boss part and an anti-slip surface at least on one of both axial end faces of the boss part. The anti-slip surface has a plurality of corrugated rib parts, which includes a main groove and at least one auxiliary groove extending parallel to the main groove, with a ridge protruding higher than the anti-slip surface between the main groove and the auxiliary groove.
Claims5
A rotating member comprising a boss part and an anti-slip surface at least on one of both axial end faces of the boss part,
- the anti-slip surface having a plurality of corrugated rib parts formed by forging,
- the corrugated rib parts including a main groove and at least one auxiliary groove extending parallel to the main groove, with a ridge protruding higher than the anti-slip surface between the main groove and the at least one auxiliary groove, the ridge having a peak extending in a continuous line above the anti-slip surface, the ridge having one side face extending below the anti-slip surface to form one side of the main groove, the ridge having another side face extending below the anti-slip surface to form one side of the auxiliary groove,
- a depth of the auxiliary groove within 0.1 to 0.7 mm from the anti-slip surface being less than a depth of the main groove within 0.4 to 1.0 mm from the anti-slip surface, and
- the one side face of the ridge on the side facing the main groove and the another side face of the ridge on the side facing the auxiliary groove make an angle of 30° to 60°.
