Abstract

In a processing method of a slotted hole for processing a hole in a processed subject and further processing a slot intersecting the hole, a process for generating a compressive residual stress c is applied to an inner diameter portion of the hole before the slot is processed.

Claims (6)

1. A processing method of a slotted hole for processing a hole in a processed subject and further processing a slot intersecting the hole, comprising the steps of generating a compressive residual stress in an inner diameter portion of the hole before the slot is processed to control a hole diameter after the slot processing, by controlling a magnitude of the compressive residual stress generated in the inner diameter portion of the hole before the slot processing.

2. The processing method of a slotted hole according to claim 1 , wherein the compressive residual stress is generated by a burnishing process.

3. The processing method of a slotted hole according to claim 2 , wherein the processed subject is a vehicle body side bracket of a vehicle, and a front fork is capable of being slot-fastened to a slotted hole of the vehicle body side bracket.

4. The processing method of a slotted hole according to claim 2 , wherein the processed subject is an axle bracket of a vehicle, and an axle is capable of being slot-fastened to a slotted hole of the axle bracket.

5. The processing method of a slotted hole according to claim 1 , wherein the processed subject is a vehicle body side bracket of a vehicle, and a front fork is capable of being slot-fastened to a slotted hole of the vehicle body side bracket.

6. The processing method of a slotted hole according to claim 1 , wherein the processed subject is an axle bracket of a vehicle, and an axle is capable of being slot-fastened to a slotted hole of the axle bracket.
