In an operation management system in the related art, it is necessary to add an identification mark such as an RFID tag to each component to be managed and prepare a fastening tool having an antenna. In contrast, a mechanical fastening unit management method is provided using an augmented reality space generated by superimposing a virtual space on a real space. In the augmented reality space where a real fastening unit (RBn) and a virtual fastening unit (IBn) are in a one-to-one correspondence, information that the real fastening unit is selected as a fastening target is acquired with a camera or the like, and analyzed by an augmented reality server connected to the camera. Accordingly, it is possible to easily record that a predetermined operation is progressing as scheduled, and to provide a high quality mechanical fastening unit management method or system that is low in operation cost.

A solenoid valve includes a main valve having a valve seat and a main valve body configured to open or close a main flow passage, a pilot passage that branches from the main flow passage, an orifice provided in the pilot passage, a back-pressure chamber configured to bias the main valve body to a closing direction by virtue of an internal pressure, a pilot valve configured to control an internal pressure of the back-pressure chamber, and a solenoid configured to control a valve opening pressure of the pilot valve. There is a time difference between a valve opening timing of the main valve and a valve opening timing of the pilot valve such that the valve opening timing of the main valve is delayed from the valve opening timing of the pilot valve.

A damping valve includes a valve element member, a disc spring, and a solenoid. The valve element member opens and closes an upstream side and a downstream side of a pilot passage by a pressure control valve element seated on and liftable from a pressure control valve seat and an open/close valve element seated on and liftable from an open/close valve seat. The disc spring is interposed between a stepped part and the valve element member. The disc spring biases the valve element member in a direction in which the pressure control valve element separates from the pressure control valve seat and in which the open/close valve element approaches the open/close valve seat. The solenoid is configured to drive the valve element member against a biasing force by the disc spring. In a state in which the disc spring has a natural length, a clearance is formed between the open/close valve element and the open/close valve seat.

On part of a surface of a metal sheet that is to be heated by radiant heat transfer with a near-infrared ray, a region where reflectance for a radiant ray is made lower than that of the original surface of the metal sheet is formed. As reflectance reducing treatment, painting or thermal spraying in a blackish color, plating in a blackish color, treatment for increasing roughness of the surface of the metal sheet, blasting, etching, blackening, surface layer quality changing treatment of the metal sheet, or the like can be adopted. The metal sheet is turned into a heated metal sheet partially having a different temperature by being heated by radiant heat transfer, and thereafter, the heated metal sheet is subjected to thermal processing accompanied by cooling, for example, by hot stamping.
