Spring guide and suspension device

A spring guide made of fiber-reinforced resin, includes: a disc-shaped base portion configured to support a coil spring, the coil spring being configured to elastically support a vehicle body; and a barrel portion through which a cylinder of a shock absorber is inserted, in the barrel portion, the fiber-reinforced resin is oriented in a circumferential direction.

Spring guide and method of manufacturing spring guide

A manufacturing method of a resin molded member includes: an insert member molding step of building an insert member by stacking layers of a base resin containing continuous fibers by using a 3D printer; an aligning step of aligning the insert member in a cavity of an injection molding mold; and a resin portion molding step of molding a resin portion integrated with the insert member by filling an injection molding resin into the cavity, wherein the insert member is arranged on a surface of a weld portion by the resin portion molding step, and the continuous fibers in the insert member are oriented in direction crossing over the weld portion, the weld portion being formed in the resin portion.
