Opposed type fulcrum member of lever detector
View Patent ↗An opposed type fulcrum member of a lever detector is constituted by a main body part having a U-shaped section and thin-walled parts each formed in opposed positions of two sides of the main body part, and two ends of the U-shaped main body part can rock, with the tin-walled parts serving as fulcrums. By performing the U-shaped working and thin-walled working of the main body part by press forming, a low-cost, uniform opposed type fulcrum member is obtained and it is possible to reduce the cost of the whole lever detector.
1. An opposed type fulcrum member of a lever detector, comprising:
a main body part having a U-shaped section having a pair of legs connected by a cross member; and
thin-walled parts each formed in opposed positions of two sides of the main body part by notches in each of said legs,
wherein two leading ends of the U-shaped main body part are formed so as to be able to rock, with the thin-walled parts serving as fulcrums; and
wherein the legs and notches are streak-free and have a density that has been increased by having been formed from a single piece by press forming of the single piece into said U-shaped section and by press forming of said notches into said legs.
2. The opposed type fulcrum member of a lever detector according to claim 1 , wherein the opposed type fulcrum member is formed as one piece of multiple gangs.
3. The opposed type fulcrum member of a lever detector according to claim 2 , wherein heat treatment is performed after the press forming.
4. The opposed type fulcrum member of a lever detector according to claim 1 , wherein heat treatment is performed after the press forming.
