Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to a method of forming a cam shaft by assembling a preliminary shaft having a predetermined outer diameter and a cam lobe including a cam-lobe shaft hole having a diameter larger than the outer diameter of the preliminary shaft. The method comprises: a one-side projecting-part forming step in which a one-side projecting part for fixing a one-side surface of the cam lobe is previously formed on an axially predetermined position of the preliminary shaft; an inserting step in which the preliminary shaft is inserted into the cam-lobe shaft hole of the cam lobe from a side of the preliminary shaft on which the one-side projecting part has not been formed; a temporary fixing step in which the cam lobe and the preliminary shaft are temporarily fixed to each other, by pressing the one-side surface of the inserted cam lobe against the one-side projecting part, such that the cam lobe and the preliminary shaft are circumferentially positioned; and an other-side projecting-part forming step in which an other-side projecting part for fixing an other-side surface of the cam lobe is formed on an outer circumferential part of the preliminary shaft near the other-side surface of the cam lobe that has been temporarily fixed.
