Abstract:
A steering-wheel core and a method for casting the same capable of eliminating the need to perform finishing processing after casting and decreasing a manufacturing cost even when the steering-wheel core is cast using a molten metal are provided. The method for casting a steering-wheel core ( 100 ) according to the present invention includes: providing a protruding portion ( 92 ) in a surface ( 91 ) of an inner surface of a casting die ( 90 ), with the surface defining a nut seat surface; and causing a molten metal to hit on the protruding portion ( 92 ) when the molten metal is flown into the casting die ( 90 ) such that a flowing direction of the molten metal flowing toward the surface ( 91  that defines the nut seat surface is changed.

Claim (Index 2):
The method for casting a steering-wheel core according to  claim 1 , further comprising,\n the flowing direction of the molten metal is changed so that an amount of the molten metal, which flows into the casting die at least in an initial flowing stage and makes direct contact with the surface that defines the nut seat surface, decreases.
