Abstract

A vertical motion impeller-type shot peening device performs a second shot peening to a coil spring including first shot peening indentations. The vertical motion impeller-type shot peening device includes a workpiece holding mechanism including a lower end turn support and an upper end turn support, a stress applying mechanism which compresses the coil spring, a rotation mechanism, and a projection mechanism which includes a pair of vertically movable impeller units. A first rough surface including first shot peening indentations is formed on a part of end turn portions of the coil spring. A second rough surface including second shot peening indentations is formed on the entire surface of wire except for the first rough surface.
