Claim:
1. An anodizing apparatus configured to perform an anodization on a metallic material to be processed provided with a projecting portion on a surface thereof, comprising: an electrolysis tank configured to store electrolytic solution for anodization; a first electrode portion formed of a metal and electrically connected to the material to be processed in an immersed state immersed in the electrolytic solution in the electrolysis tank; a second electrode portion formed of a metal and opposing the material to be processed in the immersed state; an electrode apparatus configured to apply a predetermined voltage between the first electrode portion and the second electrode portion; a retaining device configured to retain and rotate the material to be processed in the immersed state; and a first injection device configured to inject the electrolytic solution for the anodization toward a predetermined area deviated from the material to be processed in a storage space in the electrolysis tank so that the material to be processed is deviated from a line in the direction of injection, wherein the predetermined area is a side area on the radially outside of an outer peripheral surface of rotation defined when the material to be processed rotates, the first injection device injects the electrolytic solution toward the side area only in one direction along the outer peripheral surface of rotation of the material to be processed, and the first injection device includes an injection port configured to inject the electrolytic solution in a bottom surface of the electrolysis tank on the side of an inner wall surface of the electrolysis tank with respect to an intermediate position between the inner wall surface of the electrolysis tank and the outer peripheral surface of rotation of the material to be processed in terms of the radial direction of the material to be processed.
