Description

-LUBRICATING OIL COMPOSITION FOR USE IN FINAL DRIVE

Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a novel lubricating oil composition for use in a final drive, and more particularly to a lubricating oil composition for use in a final drive for use in a car of a front- engine and rear-wheel-drive system or the like, which composition improves the efficiency of transmission in a differential gear under various conditions such as the input torque, the input number of revolutions and the temperature of the oil, as compared with the conventional ones comprising S-containing and P-cont~ining additives blended therein.

Prior Art The final drive of a ca,r has a function (1) of further decreasing a driving force decreased by a transmission and rectangularly changing the direction of the force, and a differential function (2) of securing smooth driving even when a difference in revolution arises between right and left driving wheels at the time of turning the car around. The former function is performed by a decelerator, while the latter function is performed by a differential gear. The decelerator is constituted of a decelerating pinion and a decelerating gear wheel.
Hypoid gears are generally used as such decelerating pinion and gear wheel.

On the other hand, the differential gear (differential) is constituted of two or four differential pinions and two differential gear wheels engaged therewith, which are built in a differential gear box. The differential pinions, which are connected to the differential gear box by means of a shaft, is capable of orbital revolution together with the gear box while revolving on its own axis around the shaft.
Consequently, a difference in revolution between the interior and exterior driving wheels can be mechanistically absorbed even if such a difference arises when the car is turned around.
The hypoid gears of a gear transmission mechanism as is used in the foregoing final drive of the car are exposed to severe conditions such as a high speed of revolution and a heavy load, leading to the necessity for a gear oil excellent in seizing-proofing and abrasion-proofing properties. Accordingly, use is generally made of a gear oil comprising a base oil admixed with a sulfur-cont~in;ng extreme-pressure additive such as an olefin sulfide or an alkyl sulfide and a phosphorus-containing extreme-pressure additive such as a phosphoric ester, a phosphorous ester or an alkylamine salt of a phosphoric ester, wherein the sulfur-containing extreme-pressure additive improves the above-mentioned seizing-proofing properties while the phosphorus-containing extreme-pressure additive improves the above-mentioned abrasion-proofing properties.
In the case of such a conventional gear oil comprising S-cont~ining and P-cont~ining additives blended therein to impart thereto extreme-pressure properties and abrasion-proofing properties, however, the efficiency of transmission in a differential gear is about 90 to 95%
depending on variable conditions such as the input torque, the input number of revolutions and the temperature of the oil, and hence is not necessarily satisfactory. Thus, it has been desired to develop a lubricating oil composition for use in a final drive which composition improves the efficiency of transmission in a differential gear under various conditions such as the input torque, the input number of revolutions and the temperature of the oil to thereby decrease the cost of fuel.

Disclosure of the Invention Under such circumstances, an object of the present invention is to provide a lubricating oil composition for use in a final drive for use - in a car of a front-engine and rear-wheel-drive system or the like, which composition improves the efficiency of transmission in a differential gear under various conditions such as the input torque, the input number of revolutions and the temperature of the oil and hence decreases the cost of fuel, as compared with the conventional ones comprising S-cont~ining and P-containing additives blended therein.

Means for Solving the Problems As a result of intensive investigations with a view to developing a lubricating oil composition for use in a final drive which composition has the foregoing favorable properties, the inventors of the present invention have found out that the above-mentioned object can be attained by a lubricating oil composition comprising a lubricant base oil, and a sulfurized oxymolybdenum organophosphorodithioate, a sulfur-containing extreme-pressure additive and a phosphorus-containing extreme-pressure additive each in a given amount. The present invention has been completed based on such a finding.
Specifically, in accordance with the present invention, there is provided a lubricating oil composition for use in a final drive characterized by comprising lubricant base oil(s); (A) 1 to 10 wt. %, based on the total weight of the composition, of sulfurized oxymolybdenum organophosphorodithioate(s) represented by the general formula [1]:

[(RlO)(R'O)(S)P-S-]2-MO2S pO q ...[1]

(wherein R1 and R2, which may be either the same or different from each other, are an alkyl or alkenyl group having 4 to 18 carbon atoms;
and p and q are each a positive integer, provided that the sum of both is 4); (B) 3 to 15 wt. %, based on the total weight of the composition, of at least one sulfur-contAining extreme-pressure additive selected from among olefin sulfides and alkyl sulfides; and (C) 0.1 to 5 wt. %, based on the total weight of the composition, of at least one phosphorus-containing extreme-pressure additive selected from among phosphoric esters, phosphorous esters, and alkylamine salts of phosphoric esters.

Fig. 2 is graphs showing the relationships between the input torque and the efficiency of transmission in the cases of respectively using a lubricating oil according to the present invention and an S-P blend oil.

Preferable embodiments of the Invention The present invention will now be described in detail.
Examples of the base oil to be used in the lubricating oil composition of the present invention, though not particularly restricted, include common base oils for use in the conventional lubricating oils, such as mineral and synthetic oils.
Examples of the mineral oils include 60 neutral oil, 100 neutral oil, 150 neutral oil, 300 neutral oil, and 500 neutral oil, which are prepared by refining with a solvent or through hydrogenation; and low-pour-point base oils improved in fluidity at low temperatures by removing wax from the above-enumerated base oils. These mineral oils may be used either alone or in mixture wherein at least two kinds of mineral oils are mixed together in a suitable proportion.
On the other hand, examples of the synthetic oils include a -olefin oligomers, diesters, polyol esters, and polyglycol esters.

[(RlO)(R'O)(S)P-S-]2-MO2S pO q ...[1]
In the above-mentioned formula [1], Rl and R', which may be either the same or different from each other, are an alkyl or alkenyl group having four to 18 carbon atoms, which group may be linear, branched, or cyclic; and p and q are each a positive integer, provided that the sum of both is four. Examples of Rl and R' include butyl, pentyl, hexyl, cyclohexyl, octyl, 2-ethylhexyl, decyl, lauryl, myristyl, palmityl, stearyl, butenyl, pentenyl, octenyl and oleyl groups.

These MoDTP compounds may be used either alone or in combination of two or more kinds thereof. The amount of MoDTP to be blended in the composition is in the range of 1 to 10 wt. %, preferably 1 to 7 wt. %, based on the total weight of the composition. When the amount is smaller than 1 wt. %, no effect of improving the efficiency of transmission in a differential gear under various conditions such as the input torque, the input number of revolutions and the temperature of the oil can sufficiently be exhibited. When it exceeds 10 wt. %, the resulting improvement in the above-mentioned effect is not worth an increase in the amount, and troubles such as sludge are liable to be caused.

Examples of the olefin sulfides include compounds represented by the general formula [2]:

The sulfur-containing extreme-pressure additive generally forms a sulfurized skin in a frictional surface, and hence functions in such a way as to improve the load resistance performance of the base oil(s).
When the above-mentioned amount is smaller than 3 wt. ~, the foregoing functional effect cannot sufficiently be exhibited to make the resulting composition unsuitable as a gear oil for use in a car. When it exceeds 15 wt. %, the resulting improvement in the foregoing effect is not worth an increase in the amount, while a difficulty is encountered in dissolving the increased amount of the component (B) in the base oil ( s ) .
The component ( C ) to be used in the lubricating oil composition of the present invention is at least one phosphorus-containing extreme-pressure additive selected from among phosphoric esters, phosphorous esters, and alklyamine salts of phosphoric esters.
Examples of the above-mentioned phosphoric esters ( Pa ) and phosphorous esters ( Pi ) include a variety of phosphorus-containing compounds represented by the formula: O=P(OR7 )(OR8 )(OR9 ), O=P(OH)(OR' ) (OR8 )~ O=P(OH)2 (OR7 ), P(OR7 )(OR8 )(OR9 ), P(OH)(OR7 )(OR8 ), or P(OH) 2 (OR7 ). In the above-mentioned formulae, R7, R9 and R9, which may be either the same or different from each othe~, are each a linear, branched or cyclic alkyl or alkenyl group having four to 30 of carbon atoms, preferably 20 or less of carbon atoms, an aryl group, or an alkylaryl group.

On the other hand, an alkylamine salt of a phosphoric ester ( Pa-A ) is a reaction product of the phosphoric ester with the alkylamine, examples of which are the ones represented by the general formula [ 4 ]:

(Rl )m P(O) (OH)3 ~m [NHn (Rl l )3 ~n ]3 ~m .. [4]
In the above-mentioned general formula [ 4 ], Rl is a linear, branched or cyclic alkyl or alkenyl group having four to 30 of carbon atoms, preferably 20 or less of carbon atoms, an aryl group, or an alkylaryl group; Rl l is a linear, branched or cyclic alkyl or alkenyl group having four to 30 of carbon atoms, preferably 20 or less of carbon atoms; m and n are each 1 or 2; a plurality of Rl, if any, may be either the same or different from each other; and a plurality of Rll, if any, may be either the same or different from each other.

The amount of the phosphorus-cont~ining extreme-pressure additive(s) to be blended in the composition is in the range of 0.1 to 5 wt. %, preferably 0.5 to 4 wt.
%, based on the total weight of the composition. When this amount is smaller than 0.1 wt. %, the resulting composition is never excellent in frictional properties and abrasion-proofing properties. When it exceeds 5 wt. %, the resulting improvements in such effects are not worth an increase in the amount, while a difficulty is encountered in dissolving the increased amount of the additive(s) in the base oil(s).
The phosphorus-containing extreme-pressure additive(s) as the component (C) is generally great in abrasion-proofing effect, and moreover functions as an assistant capable of promoting the effect of the sulfur-cont~ining extreme-pressure additive. The phosphoric ester ~.. ... .
attains improvements particularly in initial (run-in) frictional properties and abrasion-proofing properties, whereas the phosphorous ester functions in such a way as to secure low frictional properties over a long period of time particularly after the run-in. On the other hand, the alkylamine salt of the phosphoric ester is excellent particularly in abrasion-proofing properties for gears.

In Fig. 1, numeral 1 refers to the S-10 test ring, numeral 2 to the H-60 block, and numeral 3 to a strain meter. The load was applied onto the H-60 block to revolve the ring, whereupon a resistance arose, which was detected with the strain meter to calculate the friction coefficient. The test oil was filled to such an extent that the ring was dipped therein by about half.
(2) Efficiency of torque transmission in real machine (%) The test was carried out under conditions involving an input torque of 3 kgf- m, an input number of revolutions of 1,000 rpm and an oil temperature of 50 C to determine the efficiency (%) of torque transmission in the real machine.
(3) Seizing-proofing properties (API service classification) The seizing-proofing properties were determined in accordance with the CRC L-42 test. The higher the value, the better the seizing-proofing properties.
