Method of producing shoe for swash plate type compressor

摘要

A method of producing a shoe for a swash plate type compressor, the shoe being disposed between a swash plate and a piston of the swash plate type compressor and formed of an aluminum alloy, the method comprising: a main forging step (206) of forging a blank (160) for producing the shoe into a roughly-shaped precursor shoe (194); a thermal refining step (210) of thermally refining the roughly-shaped precursor shoe; and a size-adjustment forging step (214) of forging the roughly-shaped precursor shoe which has been thermally refined, into a size-adjusted shoe (216).
