[Prior Art] In recent years, there has been a trend in material development toward developing new materials that seek functionality. The targets are wide-ranging, but metals, polymers, and ceramics dominate. On the other hand, in the field of processing technology, from the standpoint of resource conservation, emphasis is placed on surface (treatment) processing technology that processes only the surface of the material to improve performance and functionality. Thermal spraying technology has been attracting attention in recent years as the simplest method among various surface (treatment) processing technologies. Up to now, various thermal spraying methods such as gas thermal spraying, plasma thermal spraying, and wire bombardment spraying have been developed, and research is being conducted toward their practical application. However, in either method, the thermal spraying materials that can be applied are limited, and there are limits to the fine particles of the thermal spraying material and the high temperature of the thermal spraying material, so the adhesion between the thermal spraying film and the object to be thermally sprayed is limited. It cannot be said that the reliability of
The development of a thermal spraying method that achieves this simple and reliable adhesion is an important future research topic.

[Structure of the Invention] In order to achieve this objective, the inventors of the present invention have conducted intensive research on thermal spraying methods and thermal spraying equipment suitable for obtaining thermal sprayed films with excellent adhesion, and have determined the most important thermal spraying conditions. It is possible to raise the temperature of a certain thermal spray material by using a laser beam, which is a high-energy density beam, and by adjusting the atmosphere, it is also possible to turn a metal activated to a high temperature by the laser into a non-metallic material. We have found that this is possible, and have completed the present invention based on this knowledge. That is, the gist of the present invention is that the metal wire is heated by the laser beam while being continuously fed through the hole of the mirror toward the convergence part of the laser beam,
When the laser beam reaches the convergence point, the tip of the wire reaches the maximum temperature and melts, and the resulting molten metal is made into particles using various gases and blown away toward the object to be sprayed, or the metal components and gas The present invention relates to a thermal spraying method using a laser, in which a sprayed film of various components is obtained on the surface of the object, which is heated by a laser beam reflected by a mirror and blown toward the object while reacting with the object.

A laser beam guided from a laser generator is converged by a condensing lens to obtain a convergent portion of the laser beam with high energy density. Place a mirror on the opposite side of the lens across this. A hole is provided in a part of the mirror, and a metal wire is continuously fed through the hole toward the convergence section. The wire is heated by the laser beam while moving from the low energy density part of the laser beam to the high energy density convergence part, and when the wire tip reaches the said convergence part, the wire tip reaches the highest point. It reaches the temperature and melts. The molten metal is made into fine particles and blown away by the gas supplied from the gas nozzle installed near the convergence section, and the flying particles are carried towards the object to be sprayed by the gas flow. He is found out and collides with this. Since the laser beam reflected by the mirror heats the surface of the object to be thermally sprayed, the flying particles that collide with the laser beam strongly adhere to the object to be thermally sprayed, forming a sprayed film on the surface of the object to be thermally sprayed. The figure shows an example in which the object to be sprayed is moved in the direction of the arrow, and a parabolic mirror is used as a mirror, and the laser beam reflected by it irradiates the area where the flying particles and the object to be sprayed collide. Indicates when there is. The irradiation position can be adjusted depending on the conditions at the time of thermal spraying so that it can be used for preheating the object to be sprayed or reheating the sprayed film.The irradiation energy density can be adjusted depending on the intensity of the laser beam and the object to be thermally sprayed. Adjustment can also be made by changing the position of.

The gas used is inert gas such as argon,
Since reactive gases such as oxygen, nitrogen, hydrocarbons, or mixed gases thereof can be arbitrarily selected, thermal spraying can be performed without or while reacting the molten metal and flying particles with the gas. Therefore, the sprayed film obtained by using a metal wire is a metal and a non-metal, or a mixture thereof.
It is possible to easily obtain a thermally sprayed film that cannot be achieved using existing techniques.
