High-performance ceramic piston ring manufacturing technology
Technical field
The invention belongs to field of surface metallurgy.
Background technology
Piston ring is the key components and parts of the explosive motor such as automobile, motorcycle heart part.Its proportion in all component of engine is very little, but plays vital effect.Piston ring repeatedly moves in high temperature, high-pressure gas medium, and fierce friction occurs.The quality of piston ring performance directly has influence on the overall performance such as dynamic property, economy, reliability, fuel efficiency, exhaust emissions of engine.Along with modern internal combustion engines is to high-level efficiency, high-load, high speed and the future development of high life, more and more higher requirement is proposed to the wear resistance of piston ring and comprehensive mechanical performance.At present, adopt various process for treating surface to improve the use properties of piston ring both at home and abroad, mainly comprise electrodeposited chromium, surfaces nitrided, PVD and CVD plated film, plasma sprayed molybdenum, plasma spraying ceramic coat etc.But chromium coating fragility is large, easily comes off, chrome-plated process causes murder by poisoning to human body and environment, abroad forbid, domesticly also to cancel gradually.Surface hardness after surfaces nitrided is general not high, and thickness is general, can not meet the requirement of high-power engine.BN, CrN, SiN rete too book prepared by PVD and CVD coating technique, only 3 ~ 5 μm, supporting capacity is poor, can not meet high to carry, the needs of high-speed internal combustion engine, and complex process, somewhat expensive, limits and applies.Plasma sprayed molybdenum is oxidizable when high temperature to be peeled off, and can not meet the needs of Modern Internal-Combustion Engine development.In recent years, plasma spraying ceramic coat is adopted to carry out surface treatment to piston ring both at home and abroad.Stupalith can reduce the frictional coefficient between piston ring and steam jacket greatly, and effectively reduce the friction loss between piston ring and cylinder, the mechanical efficiency of engine is improved, and the effect especially when high speed is particularly evident.The problem of this technology is that ceramic coating exists fragility, also there is the interface on the low side with substrate combinating strength, produces stress and peels off.
From last century Mo to the beginning of this century, double-deck glow plasma surface metallurgical technology starts to be applied to metal surface properties modification engineering.It for matrix, produces the advanced metal material product of various excellent performance with common product of metal material.
Summary of the invention
The object of the invention is the deficiency overcoming prior art existence, a kind of high-performance ceramic piston ring manufacturing technology is provided.(for molybdenum)
Basic conception of the present invention is; Adopt double-deck glow plasma surface metallurgical technology, make molybdenum become molybdenum ion, under electrical forces effect, the countless lattice defect passages that molybdenum ion is formed under high temperature enter piston ring top layer certain depth, then form molybdenum carbide ceramics layer through vacuum ionic carbonization.
The present invention is achieved by the following technical solutions:
1. low alloy steel piston ring and molybdenum materials are placed in corresponding position in rough vacuum (8.0Pa) barrel-shaped negative electrode, pass into argon gas (air pressure 30 ~ 40Pa).Through twice current break, form double skin facade system, produce 800 ~ 1000 DEG C of high temperature.
2. molybdenum materials sputters atoms metal rapidly in High temperature ion district, and atoms metal is ionized to molybdenum ion again in energetic ion district.
3. the lattice defect passage such as countless dislocations, room that molybdenum ion is at high temperature formed along piston ring surface under electrical forces effect gos deep into 100 ~ 300 μm, piston ring top layer.
4., again through vacuum ionic carbonization, form molybdenum carbide ceramics layer.
The Ceramic piston ring of the technology of the present invention manufacture there occurs the change of matter due to its mantle micro structure and performance, compared with existing various piston ring surface treatment technology, has the following advantages:
1, high rigidity: HV1300 ~ 1500 is more than 3 times of v-cr-mo alloy steel ring;
2, frictional coefficient is low: piston set friction minimizing 50%;
3, wear resistance ratio is only 1/5 of common steel loop;
4, ceramic wear-resisting layer depth can reach 100 ~ 300 μm, is 30 ~ 50 times of PVD and CVD ceramic membrane thickness, is more than 6 times of nitrogenize steel loop;
5, strong, the high-temperature resistant gas corrosion of Heat stability is good, anti-scuffing function;
6, ceramic wearing coat and piston ring substrate are metallurgical binding, Dispersed precipitate, formation sosoloid; Compare with electrodeposited chromium, plasma sprayed molybdenum, plasma sprayed ceramic layer, there is not macroscopic interface, do not produce stress and peel off;
7, ceramic wearing coat gos deep into, in piston ring top layer, not increasing skin depth, and its size and the accuracy of form and position can ensure.

Embodiment
Embodiment (for molybdenum) is provided below in conjunction with accompanying drawing
Primary source 1 exports 0 ~ 1000V for cathode and anode.Cathode block 7 connects primary source 1 negative terminal, and anode 8 connects primary source 1 anode.Bias supply 2 exports 0 ~ 450V for bias ring 3.Vacuum chamber 4 has Ar inlet 5 and vacuum pumping opening 6.Barrel-shaped negative electrode 9 upper end open, final vacuum is 8.0Pa, and argon pressure is 30 ~ 40Pa; Bias voltage is 240 ~ 450v.Increase main power voltage to 500 ~ 600V gradually, at this moment occur first time current break, produce aura; Continue to increase voltage to 600 ~ 800V, occur second time current break, normal glow discharge changes into anomalous glow discharge, produces the high temperature of 800 ~ 1000 DEG C again.The molybdenum materials 11 of barrel-shaped negative electrode 9 surrounding sputters atoms metal, atoms metal is ionized to metal ion again in energetic ion district, the passage that molybdenum ion is at high temperature formed along the lattice defect such as dislocation, room under electrical forces effect enters into piston ring 10 top layer, and the degree of depth reaches 100 ~ 300 μm.Again through vacuum ionic carbonization, piston ring 10 top layer forms molybdenum carbide ceramics layer.
The technical process of the high-performance ceramic piston ring be made up of the present invention is as follows:
Steel circle the ribbon → quench, tempering → medial and lateral chamfering → double-deck glow plasma surface metallurgic → vacuum ionic carbonization → high pressure gas quenching → opening → honing → fine grinding side → inspection at end.
