- the sensor cap includes a cap body and a cored bar.
- the cap body is formed by injection molding a synthetic resin.
- the core metal is molded in the opening of the cap body.
- the cap body is formed with an attachment portion that protrudes in the axial direction.

- a sensor unit is mounted in the insertion hole.
- a nut is embedded in the mounting portion. The sensor unit is fixed to the attachment portion via a fixing bolt attached to the nut.
- a nut is embedded in a mounting portion. Therefore, when manufacturing the sensor cap, it is necessary to arrange the nut at a predetermined position in the mold. If the nut is simply placed in the mold, the position of the nut may be shifted due to the resin material injected into the mold. Therefore, it is necessary to fix the nut so that the position of the nut does not shift.
- As a mechanism for fixing the nut for example, it is conceivable to insert the support member into the hole of the nut and press the nut from the direction opposite to the direction in which the support member is inserted.

- the inner peripheral surface 64C1 has a substantially constant diameter and extends straight in the mold matching direction.
- the right end of the inner peripheral surface 64C1 (the end away from the mold alignment surface 642 in the mold alignment direction) defines the opening end of the housing recess 64C.
- the diameter of the inner peripheral surface 64C2 is smaller at the end away from the inner peripheral surface 64C1 than at the end connected to the inner peripheral surface 64C1.
- the gate 64D is formed in the mold 64.
- the gate 64D has a cylindrical inner peripheral surface. That is, the gate 64D has a substantially constant diameter and extends straight in the mold alignment direction.
- the right end of the gate 64D (the end away from the mold matching surface 642) is connected to the housing recess 64C (specifically, the small diameter end of the inner peripheral surface 64C2).
- the left end of the gate 64D (the end closer to the mold matching surface 642) is open to the tip end surface 64A4 of the protrusion 64A.
- the center (center in the radial direction) of the gate 64D coincides with the center (center in the radial direction) of the protrusion 62A. ing. That is, the gate 64D is located coaxially with the protrusion 62A formed on the mold 62.
- the center (diameter center) of the nut 56 coincides with the center (diameter center) of the gate 64D. That is, the gate 64D is located coaxially with the nut 56.
- the gate 64D is formed at a position overlapping the stopper 562 of the nut 56 when viewed from the mold alignment direction. That is, the gate 64 ⁇ / b> D is formed at a position overlapping the inner region of the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion 561 of the nut 56 when viewed from the mold alignment direction.
- a cavity 60 ⁇ / b> A is formed in the mold 60 by aligning the mold 62 and the mold 64.
- a resin material is injected into the cavity 60A.
- the resin material is injected into the cavity 60A through the gate 64D.
- the injected resin material is filled in the cavity 60A.
- the resin material When injected into the cavity 60A, the resin material hits the stopper 562 of the nut 56 as shown in FIG.
- the stopper 562 is pressed against the tip surface of the protrusion 62A by the pressure when the resin material is injected. Therefore, the nut 56 can be prevented from coming out of the protrusion 62A.
- the resin material that has hit the stopper 562 covers the end face in the axial direction of the nut 56, and then wraps around the radially outer side of the nut 56 to cover the outer peripheral face of the nut 56. That is, the nut 56 can be prevented from moving in the radial direction with respect to the protrusion 62A. In this manner, the nut 56 can be positioned by covering the axial end surface and the outer peripheral surface of the nut 56 with the resin material.

- the nut 56 is positioned using the pressure when the resin material is injected. Therefore, the structure of the metal mold 64 can be simplified as compared with the case where a pin that can be moved back and forth with respect to the nut 56 is arranged in the metal mold 64 and the nut 56 is pushed by the pin.
- the gate 64D is positioned coaxially with the nut 56. Therefore, when the nut 56 is pressed against the protrusion 62A by the resin material injected from the gate 64D, the nut 56 is less likely to wobble in the radial direction of the cylindrical portion 561. As a result, it is possible to avoid the resin material from hardening in a state where the nut 56 is inclined with respect to the protrusion 62A.
- the nut 56 is provided with the stopper 562, but may not be provided with the stopper 562.
- FIG. 6 shows a state in which the nut 56 ⁇ / b> A not provided with the stopper 562 is arranged in the mold 60.
- the resin material injected from the gate 64D hits the tip surface of the protrusion 62A. Due to the pressure at the time of injection, the resin material hitting the tip surface of the protrusion 62A spreads in the radial direction of the protrusion 62A.
- the axial end surface (the right end surface in FIG. 6) of the cylindrical portion 561 of the nut 56A is covered with the resin material.
- the nut 56A can be prevented from coming out of the protrusion 62A. Further, the resin material covering the axial end surface of the cylindrical portion 561 then wraps around the radially outer side of the cylindrical portion 561 and covers the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion 561. That is, the nut 56A can be prevented from moving in the radial direction of the cylindrical portion 561 with respect to the protrusion 62A. In this way, the nut 56A can be positioned by covering the axial end surface and the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion 561 with the resin material.
- a thread groove may not be formed in advance on the inner peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion 561.
- a thread groove may be formed on the inner peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion 561.
- the resin that has entered the thread groove may be scraped off.
- the gate 64D may not be positioned coaxially with the protrusion 62A.
- the gate 64D may be formed at a position overlapping the axial end surface of the cylindrical portion 561 when viewed from the mold alignment direction. In this case, the resin material injected from the hot runner nozzle 70 can hit the nut 56A. As a result, the nut 56A can be positioned more reliably.
- the gate 64D may not be positioned coaxially with the nut 56. It suffices that at least a part of the gate 64D overlaps the nut 56 when viewed from the mold alignment direction of the mold 62 and the mold 64.

Abstract
Description
図1は、本発明の実施の形態による製造方法で製造されるカバーが取り付けられたハブユニット10を示す。なお、以下の説明において、軸方向は、ハブユニット10の中心軸線CLが延びる方向である。径方向は、中心軸線CLに垂直な方向、つまり、軸方向に垂直な方向である。周方向は、中心軸線CL周りの方向である。ハブユニット10が車両に配置された状態では、ハブユニット10の軸方向一端側(図1中の左端側)が車両の内側に相当し、ハブユニット10の軸方向他端側(図1中の右端側)が車両の外側に相当する。
図1を参照して、ハブユニット10は、外輪12と、内軸14と、内輪16と、複数の転動体18と、複数の転動体20と、保持器22と、保持器24とを含む。以下、これらの部材について説明する。
ハブユニット10には、パルサリング28が、芯金30を介して、内輪16に固定されている。
ハブユニット10には、カバー50が固定されている。図2を参照しながら、カバー50について説明する。カバー50は、芯金52と、カバー本体54と、ナット56とを備える。
続いて、カバー50の製造方法について説明する。先ず、カバー50の製造に用いる金型60(図3A参照)を準備する。続いて、図3Aに示すように、金型60内に、芯金52及びナット56を配置する。
上記実施の形態では、ナット56は、ストッパ562を備えていたが、ストッパ562を備えていなくてもよい。図6は、ストッパ562を備えていないナット56Aが金型60内に配置された状態を示している。この場合、ゲート64Dから射出される樹脂材料は、突起62Aの先端面にぶつかる。射出時の圧力により、突起62Aの先端面にぶつかった樹脂材料は、突起62Aの径方向に広がる。その結果、ナット56Aの筒部561の軸方向端面(図6中の右端面)が、樹脂材料で覆われる。つまり、ナット56Aが突起62Aから抜け出すのを阻止することができる。また、筒部561の軸方向端面を覆った樹脂材料は、その後、筒部561の径方向外側に回り込み、筒部561の外周面を覆う。つまり、ナット56Aが、突起62Aに対して、筒部561の径方向に移動するのを阻止することができる。このようにして、筒部561の軸方向端面及び外周面を樹脂材料で覆うことにより、ナット56Aを位置決めすることができる。
