Abstract
This disclosure relates to a guide bar (1) for a chain saw, wherein easily formed multiple through-holes (2) are provided in a guide bar (1) for the purpose of reducing the weight of the guide bar (1). A synthetic resin material (7) fills the through-holes (2) and is prevented from falling out of the guide bar (1) by locking parts (5) at the margins of the holes. In the process of making the guide bar (1), after multiple through-holes 2 are provided in a guide bar (1), the areas around the through-holes 2 are compressed so that they undergo plastic deformation and form the locking parts 5. Then the synthetic resin material 7 is injected into these through-holes 2 and allowed to harden so that it becomes an integrated construction with the guide bar 1, and the synthetic resin material 7 is securely locked in place by the locking parts.

- With reference to the accompanying drawings, a simplified manufacturing method according to this invention is illustrated in Figs. 1(a) through 1(d). Through-
holes 2 are provided in theguide bar 1 as shown in Fig. 1(a), and then acompression tool 3 is pressed against one side of the through-holes 2 as shown in Fig 1(b). Thecompression tool 3 forms alocking flange 5 on the inside of each through-hole 2 by causing the area around the through-hole 2 to undergo plastic deformation, conforming to the shape of the tip of thecompression tool 3. Theflange 5 extends radially inwardly and forms ashoulder 5a which is displaced slightly from the outer surface 1b. Thetool 3 includes aslanted portion 3a which deforms the edge of thehole 2, and a flat portion 3b which engages the flat outer surface 1b of thebar 1 and controls the amount of movement of the tool into the hole and thus the amount of deformation. Next, as shown in Fig. 1(c), the lower openings of the through-holes 2 are sealed by aflat sheet 8 which is held against the bottom surface 1c, and alightweight filler material 7 is injected from above by aninjection nozzle 6. Then, after allowing thelightweight filler material 7 to harden, theguide bar 1 and thelightweight filler material 7 form an integrated construction, with thelocking flange 5 locking thelightweight filler material 7 securely in place, as shown in Fig. 1(d). In the drawings, 1a is a guide channel for the chain (not shown) provided around the periphery of theguide bar 1. - Figs. 2 through 5 show a first embodiment of the invention, in which the manufacturing method of this invention is used for a
guide bar 1 formed by a single plate. Figs. 2(a) and 2(b) show the bar with theholes 2 in it, Figs. 3(a) and 3(b) show the compression or deformation step, Fig. 4 the injection step, and Fig. 5 shows theintegrated guide bar 1 produced by those steps. It will be noted that a flange is formed on both ends of the holes. - As shown in the frontal view of the guide bar in Fig. 2(a) and in the enlarged cross-section A-A in Fig 2(b), multiple straight through-
holes 2 having an oval shape are provided in the center part of theguide bar 1. - Next, as shown in the frontal view in Fig. 3(a), wherein the guide bar described above has been compressed the areas around the through-
holes 2 are deformed by thecompression tool 3 from one side of the through-holes 2. When this is done, as shown in the enlarged cross-section B-B in Fig. 3(b), the areas around the through-holes 2 undergo plastic deformation to become the same shape as thetapered part 3a at the tip of thecompression tool 3. The bar is then turned over and thetool 3 deforms the other side of each hole. - In this embodiment, in addition to a
tapered part 4 being formed around each side of the through-holes 2, alocking flange 5 is formed inside the through-holes 2 in a continuous projection from thistapered part 4. - Next, as shown in the cross-sectional view in Fig. 4, the
guide bar 1 is placed on asheet 8, and a lightweight filler material 7 (a material which has a specific gravity lighter than that of the guide bar, for example, polyester resin, polycarbonate resin, fiber-reinforced plastic or some other synthetic resin) is injected from above by theinjection nozzle 6. - After allowing the
lightweight filler material 7 to harden in this state, theguide bar 1 and thelightweight filler material 7 form an integrated construction, as shown in the cross-sectional view of the guide bar including the lightweight filler material in Fig. 5. - Thus, after the through-
holes 2 are provided in theguide bar 1, because thelocking parts 5 are easily formed by compressing the areas around the through-holes 2, the manufacturing processes are simplified, and thelightweight filler material 7 is securely locked in place in theguide bar 1 by theselocking flanges 5. - It should be noted that the through-
holes 2 described above can be punched out of the plate forming the bar by mounting a punch in a press machine and, because it is also possible to compress and deform the through-holes 2 by mounting thecompression tool 3 mentioned above in the same press machine, it is possible to continuously perform both the hole-forming step and the compression step using the same machine in a progressive die of the machine. - In addition, with this first embodiment, by compressing both sides of the through-
holes 2, thetapered part 4 and the locking flange and the shoulder are formed on both sides of the through-holes 2, thus providing an even stronger locking relationship between thelightweight filler material 7 and theguide bar 1. - In addition to the single-layer type of chain saw guide bar described above and shown in Figs. 1 to 5, there are also guide bars which have a three-layer construction. This three-layer type guide bar 9 (see Fig. 9) is comprised of an
inner plate 11 sandwiched from both sides by twoouter plates 10, and using the manufacturing method described above for this three-layer type provides additional advantages. - This three-layer type guide bar will be described in connection with the second embodiment of the invention shown in Figs. 6 through 10.
- In this second embodiment, Figs. 6 and 7 show the hole-making step, Fig. 8 the compression and deformation step, Fig, 9 the injection step, and Fig. 10 the integrated
guide bar 9 produced by those steps. - As shown in Fig. 6(a) and in Fig. 6(b), multiple straight through-
holes 13 are provided in the center area of the twoouter plates 10. In addition, as shown in Fig. 7(a) and in Fig. 7(b), multiple straight through-holes 14 (which are slightly larger than the through-holes 13) are provided in the center area of theinner plate 11 of theguide bar 9. Theholes - Next, as shown in Fig. 8(a), the areas around the through-
holes 13 of both outer plates are compressed and deformed by thecompression tool 3 as previously described, from one side of the through-holes 13. When this is done, as shown in the enlarged cross-section E-E in Fig. 8(b), the areas around the through-holes 13 undergo plastic deformation to the same shape as thetapered part 3a at the tip of thecompression tool 3. - In this embodiment, in addition to a
tapered surface 4 being formed around the through-holes 13, alocking flange 5 is formed inside the through-holes 13 in a continuous projection from thistapered part 4, as shown in Fig. 10(b). - The center plate and the two outer plates are then assembled, and it will be noted from Fig. 10 that the deformed sides of the holes of the outer plates are adjacent the center plate.
- Next, as shown in the cross-sectional view of Fig. 9, after the
inner plate 11 is sandwiched from both sides by theouter plates 10 in whichlocking flanges 5 have been formed on the inner sides of the through-holes 13, the three plates are fused together to form an integrated construction by a process such as spot-welding at multiple locations S (the locations which are marked "x" in Fig. 7) around the periphery of theinner plate 11. In this condition, an irregular shape is formed by the margins of the through-holes outer plates 10 and theinner plate 11, as shown in Fig. 10(b). The holes of the inner plate are larger and their margins are offset outwardly from the holes of the two outer plates. - This three-
layer guide bar 9 is then placed on asheet 8, shown in Fig. 9, and a lightweight filler material 7 (in this case, a fiber-reinforced plastic of the type mentioned earlier is effective) is injected from above by theinjection nozzle 6. - By allowing the
lightweight filler material 7 to harden in this state, theguide bar 1 and thelightweight filler material 7 become an integrated construction, as shown in the cross-sectional view of the guide bar including the lightweight filler material in Fig. 10(a) and the partial enlarged view in Fig. 10 (b). - Thus, with a three-
layer guide bar 9, by compressing the through-holes 13 in theouter plates 10, in addition to making it possible to easily lock in place thelightweight filler material 7 in theguide bar 9, because thelightweight filler material 7 is locked in place by the lockingflanges 5, thematerial 7 also locks together theouter plates 10. This has the advantage that thematerial 7 prevents theouter plates 10 from peeling away from theinner plate 11. - In addition, because the
lightweight filler material 7 acts as a means for joining together theinner plate 11 and theouter plates 10, the number of spot-weld locations S can be reduced to less than that needed for the guide bar of the prior art. - It should be noted that, as shown in the cross-sectional view in Fig. 11(a) of a modified version of the above embodiment and the enlarged view in Fig. 11(b), even if the
inner plate 11 and theouter plates 10 are connected in the reverse manner from that of the above embodiment, the construction is such that theouter plates 10 will not peel away from theinner plate 11. As best, shown in Fig. 11(b), the deformations are on the outer sides of the holes of the outer plates, rather than on the inner sides as shown in Fig. 10(b). Again, the holes of theinner plate 11 have a larger diameter than the holes of the two outerplates, which creates a step-like configuration which interlocks with the filler material. - In addition, as shown in the frontal view of the guide bar in the third embodiment in Fig. 12(a) and the enlarged cross-section F-F in Fig. 12(b), by providing multiple approximately rectangular-shaped through-
holes 16 in positions near the outer edge of theinner plate 18, because the lightweight filler material 7 (in this case, the fiber-reinforced plastic mentioned earlier is preferred) injected into these through-holes 16 acts as a means of joining together theouter plates 17 and theinner plate 18, it is possible to reduce the number of spot-weld locations S (the locations marked "x" in the drawing) even further from that used for the second embodiment described above. In this case, by forming an empty area orcavity 18a in the center of theinner plate 18, it is also possible to further reduce the weight of theguide bar 15. - It should be noted that, by using a flexible sheet coated with heat-resistant resin or similar material for the
backing sheet 8 mentioned earlier, it is possible to correct any gaps between the guide bar and thesheet 8 which might be caused by distortion of the guide bar or other reasons, thus ensuring a close seal with the underside of the guide bar. - In addition, although in the embodiments described above, the
tapered part 4 and the lockingpart 5 are formed around the through-holes by forming the tip of thecompression tool 3 into a tapered shape, other shapes may be used so long as they are sufficient to form alocking part 5 capable of locking in place the light-weight filler material 7. Such a locking part may be a shoulder or other shape extending toward the center of the hole, which interlocks with the filler material and inhibits movement of the filler material along the axis of the hole. - With this invention, because it is possible easily to form through-holes in a chain saw guide bar for the purpose of reducing the weight of the guide bar, and locking parts which lock in place the lightweight filler material, it is possible for the manufacturing processes to be simplified and also the work efficiency is increased. Thus, the weight of the bar may efficiently be reduced.
- In addition, because it is also possible to continuously form both the through-holes and the locking parts using the same punching die machine, automation also becomes possible.
- Also, because the lightweight filler material with which the through-holes are filled is securely locked in place by the locking parts formed around the through-holes, there is no chance of the filler material falling out.
- Furthermore, for a three-layer guide bar, because, in addition to preventing the lightweight filler material from falling out, the locking parts formed around the through-holes also lock together the outer plates with the center plate, it is possible to prevent the peeling away of the outer plates.
