Abstract
Bearing shells are inserted into the connecting-rod eyes of connecting rods used in internal combustion engines. The fitting of bearing shells constitutes a production step which is a potential source of defects. The aim of the new method is to create connecting rod bearings which require less assembly work and are firmly joined to the bearing metal. According to the invention the large connecting-rod eye (3) is subjected to pre-spindle trimming, cracking and further spindle trimming to the coating tolerance, sandblasted and microporously plasma-coated with an aluminium bronze. At the start of plasma spraying the plasma layer is deposited at a high temperature, which results in good adhesion of the plasma layer to the material of the connecting-rod eye and low porosity of the plasma layer. To prevent annealing of the material of the connecting-rod eye the deposit temperature of the plasma layer is lowered for that area which is removed by subsequent working of said plasma layer. After plasma coating the connecting-rod eye is opened by removing the bearing cap (9), which ruptures the plasma layer (16). The cap (9) is then screwed back on and the actual sliding layer created by fine spindle trimming. To improve the oil retention volume the plasma layer (16) has an annular groove (32). The invention is used in internal combustion engines.
Description
The present invention relates to a kind of manufacture method with connecting rod of a tie rod holes.
The connecting rod that present used connecting rod, particularly internal-combustion engine are used is all made so-called incision connecting rod or is broken connecting rod.Here be meant that the big tie rod holes of encircling bent axle cuts or break.Little tie rod holes generally need not be opened, because it is connected with piston by a straight bolt.
Tie rod holes is equipped with different bearing shells (sliding bearing) according to bearing load.Can be as bearing shell with the supporting bush material, by Deutsche industry norm (DIN) DIN 17210 or by SAE standard SAE1010, bearing shell generally uses the C10 steel to do.Different according to structure with use, but the bearing shell flow harden.On this supporting bush material, can apply the friction layer of one deck sliding bearing reality, for example white metal, lead bronze, light metal, sprayfused coating etc., the optical axis carries lotus and decides.Bearing shell can make ternary alloy bearing shell, binary alloy bearing shell or whole bearing shell or other form.For bearing shell reaches good cooperation after installation, bearing shell should be installed with certain prestressing force.
Bearing shell is not the price factor of a material, and it also comprises operating cost and source of error.So for example forget about when mounted embedding bearing shell or half of bearing shell, just can cause the badly damaged of motor.
The objective of the invention is to, make a kind of connecting rod bearing that has thin sliding bearing coating.
The technical solution of this purpose is a kind of manufacture method with connecting rod of a tie rod holes, in this tie rod holes, applied one deck bearing coating, this bearing coating is coated on this tie rod holes by a kind of thermal spraying of bearing material, it is characterized by, the diameter of this tie rod holes was worked into nominal size with an error before the bearing coating spraying, this tie rod holes was carried out hacking with sandblast before the bearing coating coating of thermal spraying, and do not change the actual size of tie rod holes because of error, have only undercoat with making the spraying of the dead annealed temperature of connecting rod, and all the other coatings spray with low temperature.
According to the present invention, in a tie rod holes, be meant especially here in big tie rod holes, also refer in case of necessity in two tie rod holes, preferably no longer be to embed a bearing shell, but by thermal spraying directly with the bearing coating spraying on tie rod holes.As thermal spraying, the most handy plasma spraying.Connecting rod is the special parts of internal-combustion engine.In order to increase the tensile strength of adhering to of bearing coating, the coated material surface hacking of tie rod holes preferably can be carried out the sandblast hacking with the sand with different sieve-analysis curves.In order to increase the Fuel Oil Remaining on the bearing coating, the bearing coating can have a groove and/or micropore.
According to the present invention, the bearing coating sprays in the tie rod holes first being processed, and tie rod holes is processed according to the actual size in the margin of error of norminal size.This processing is cutting particularly, for example grinding.Particularly, preferably carry out this processing like this in course of working, promptly when bearing material sprayed, the actual size of tie rod holes was still in the margin of error of nominal size.In other words, after processing and before the spraying, do not carry out changing the operation of the actual size of tie rod holes because of error.Still can process then and the spraying of bearing material between operation, for example broaching of the hacking on tie rod holes surface, connecting rod radius bar or the like.
Tie rod holes is particularly advantageous by breaking, and at this moment adopts the operation of fluting and cut usually.As previously mentioned, particularly after breaking process, carry out processing of the present invention.Another kind of-particularly advantageous additional-method is, the diameter processing of tie rod holes also can be carried out before the process that breaks of tie rod holes or opening procedure.
Before opening, the processing tie rod holes has such advantage before particularly breaking, the process that breaks that can clean, and this process only causes slight distortion, just can not spray so tie rod holes does not need to cut fine finishing equally.The bearing coating can spray according to the diameter of the known very little error of tie rod holes, so only needs very thin coating to get final product, and is particularly advantageous when processing after this opens connecting rod.For this reason, preferably by 120 microns, best 75 microns, particularly 50 microns error is processed.According to the present invention, can spray 100~600 microns particularly average thickness of 150~400 microns (before the fine finishing) on the bearing material, when skilled working continuously, coating thickness can be half of low numerical value of above-mentioned scope.This scope is lower than about 50~200 microns and do not need to be undertaken by the present invention the manufacturing procedure of tie rod holes diameter of coating thickness.
The method according to this invention, the removal amount of the bearing coating of spraying is compared with its used thickness, is very little, so usually average 100~400 microns particularly 150~250 microns removal amount is enough.
It is 30~200 microns that the method according to this invention, bearing coating preferably reach average used thickness, particularly 60~150 microns (that is after bearing coating cutting).Because the bearing coating is very little to the intensity effect of tie rod holes, so the method according to this invention produces thin especially bearing coating, the advantage on having above-mentioned expense, also have tie rod holes material transverse section and can reach the thickness that under the identical outside dimension situation of tie rod holes, can not reach up to now.In connecting rod cap bolt join domain, for example every side can reach thickness altogether increases about 2.4 millimeters, greater than the coating of whole other known sliding bearings.
It is particularly advantageous that the method according to this invention adopts following operation:
-on the blank connecting rod, carry out the corase grind of tie rod holes;
The breaking of-tie rod holes (by fluting or cut);
-finish grind the tie rod holes of reformulating according to the spraying error;
-tie rod holes is carried out plasma spraying;
-carry out plasma-coated final grinding according to bearing error.
This combination on the manufacturing procedure has reached the optimization at the situation lower link hole strength of minimum fabrication cost.In principle, the connecting rod that method of the present invention is used to cut, but certainly will stand since the incision of connecting rod than the shortcoming that breaks on the cost that brings.
Preferably bearing material is deposited on the matrix with different temperature in the process of thermal spraying, particularly plasma spraying.Different temperature can change with different parameters and realizes, wherein can change one or more parameters.The parameter that changes to temperature raise, the supply of rising, cooled gas or the carrier gas of the curtage of spray gun reduces, the reducing or the variation particular importance of bearing material composition of the reducing of the bearing material mass flow of the increase of combustion gas (for example hydrogen), supply, bearing material granularity.In order to reduce depositing temperature, available one or more parameters are carried out mutual control treatment.
The temperature that reduces bearing material in thermal spray process is particularly advantageous.In principle, at a time point after a while spraying temperature that can raise again, but spraying temperature preferably keeps descending.When the bearing coating of removing thermal spraying surperficial, the part to be removed that sprays the bearing coating at low temperatures is particularly advantageous, wherein the scope of the removal amount bearing coating that can spray up at high temperature the time as requested.In this method, temperature is particularly advantageous when dropping to such degree, and promptly the scope to be removed of bearing coating comprises a coating layer portion quite inferior, and this part carries out removing after the fine finishing in the coating of bearing.
The method according to this invention, bearing material are coated onto initial temperature used on the connecting rod material and can improve like this, make spraying temperature height to can cause the dead annealed temperature of connecting rod material, if the bearing coating of whole needs sprays with this temperature.Thereby can make the bearing coating reach extra high bond strength on the matrix of tie rod holes and in the bearing coating, reach a lower porosity ratio when needed.
According to the present invention, the most handy different sieve-analysis curve, also be the sieve aperture grade, wherein, particularly suitable 16 orders of the present invention~230 orders (16,18,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,60,70,80,100,120,140,170,200 and 230) sieve aperture grade, the screen number of (6.45 square centimeters) per square inch of the given used sieve of order number.Every kind of sieve-analysis curve comprises that sum of errors sieve wire diameter for example can consult " chemistry and physics handbook the 64th edition, 1983/84CRC publishing company, Florida State, SF-114.
Proved already when the tie rod holes thermal spraying that for example the available bearing coating of being made by aluminum bronze had very high coating internal stress, and particularly sprayed a kind of and have than this internal stress of the material of low porosity and obviously increase.This shows the measure that is necessary to take to improve the bearing coating adhesive strength.According to the present invention, except high initial spraying temperature, preferably by carefully with sand at least one thicker sieve-analysis curve tie rod holes being carried out sandblast and solve this problem with at least one.
The reliable operation of connecting rod bearing requires bearing to have wear-resistant design and structure, so that bearing transmits reliably and under the temperature of still allowing.If slip surface is had the lubricating film (oil film) of bearing capacity to be spaced from each other by one deck, then always can reach wear-resistant reliability.This lubricating film produces by the bearing of a small eccentricity when sliding bearing.Like this, rotating axle plays pump, and this pumping action is sent into lubriation material (engine oil) (off-centre) bearing play, and sets up oil pressure on the convergent bearing play.In other words, oiling agent is pressed in this narrowest transverse section.When at this moment if the rotatablely moving of beginning or axle that rotatablely move of axle is very slow, then can produce the state of " boundary lubrication " (interface friction of the bearing material on axle journal).The increase that rotatablely moves causes that oil film participates in the supporting of axle journal, though also there is not to set up the oil film that adheres to.This be a kind of " mixed friction state ", that is the interface friction simultaneously and friction of floating.When this state mainly appears at engine start and stops.Further increase the formation that rotational speed then can cause the lubricant film layer of the fluid power carrying with half bearing play thickness.This state is " friction of floating ".This bearing play is generally 15~60 microns.
According to the present invention, (big) tie rod holes is carried out plasma spraying with a kind of suitable bearing material, particularly be combined in a sliding bearing coating interior generation micropore and/or a groove and can in connecting rod bearing, reach high oil storage volume, thereby reduce the friction and wear of the component of motion mutually, particularly under the situation of Boundary lubrication and mixed friction.Obviously improve the oil storage volume by in connecting rod bearing, introducing at least one groove.Wherein, to make radial groove be particularly advantageous to this groove (or these grooves).In order further to improve oil storage capacity, these grooves keep (at least to a great extent) not to be processed, that is gets final product with making the rough surface structure that causes.
The porous of the best cutting of plain bearing surfaces but the surface structure of pressure stability and unprocessed groove with very coarse surface structure cause in any bearing state in the certain oil mass of bearing stored, and with rotatablely move and oil pressure irrelevant.So just can be when small crankshaft revolution very state by interface friction and mixed friction, thereby reach the lubricating status that (almost) do not have the fluid power of wearing and tearing quickly.In other words, the antifriction performance when obviously improving engine start and halted state, thus be issued to higher bearing load in identical bearing size situation.
The present invention has following advantage: need not constitute the general bearing shell of plain bearing surfaces under the connecting rod situation, because according to the present invention, the bearing coating can spray to (not being special-purpose element) on the connecting rod material.Thereby can cancel the installation of bearing shell simultaneously.Owing to cancelled bearing shell and/or can reduce various errors owing to cancelled the cutting fine finishing of sliding bearing coating of the present invention.Exist three errors in general connecting rod bearing: first error is the error of bent axle, and second error decided by (bearing shell) sliding coating in the connecting rod, and the 3rd error decided by the tie rod holes that bearing shell embeds.Eliminated the 3rd error by the fine finishing of coating of the present invention and bearing coating.In addition,, in the screw scope, has bigger material thickness, because have a thickness less than bearing shell by the bearing coating of the present invention's spraying according to the present invention; Thereby under the situation of identical connecting rod boundary dimension, has higher load.The 3rd error (error of tie rod holes) can be determined very rough when of the present invention, because the coating of this error by subsequently is cancelled, this coating can for example be removed by correct grinding by second error size.
According to the present invention, this bearing coating is spraying so preferably, has certain porosity ratio at least on the surface after making the bearing coating remove coating where necessary.This porosity ratio has by making that the bearing coating of micropore reaches, and these micropores also can form by oxide inclusion, and this oxide inclusion is clear under the situation that pore-free forms when the fine finishing coating surface to be done.Porosity ratio is preferably 0.2%~6% in the slip surface scope, and particularly 0.5%~4%.In addition, micropore had better not interconnect, and the void content of micropore mainly is made up of blind bore like this.These micropores constitute the micro pressure chamber lubrication system of a fluid power, and wherein, micropore for example exposes by the working angles (for example correct grinding) of surface Machining.Accumulator is played in hole in the plain bearing surfaces, so begin to rotate with bent axle in a flash or slow down when rotating what engine start or motor stopped, even the oil pressure in the sliding bearing has descended or foundation just now, probably by forming slip film (friction of floating) from the engine oil of micropore and the oily volume that still can provide enough that adheres to of bent axle, can significantly shorten the scope of mixed friction by the minute-pressure power chamber system of the present invention's existence, thereby also significantly improved the friction resistant performance of bearing, and need not introduce additional material for sliding bearing such as lead alloy, zinc alloy or nickel alloy etc.The size in hole and pore volume are preferably adjusted when the thermal spraying according to the bearing load of slidingsurface.Most sizes of the volume in hole are generally 0.2~2.5 micron, particularly 1~50 micron.
According to the present invention, the general process when the bearing coating is made is: at first the matrix surface that will spray (for example big tie rod holes) cleans particularly oil removing.This work is for example carried out with superheated vapor.Then for example use aluminium sesquioxide (Al
2O
3) silica (SiO
2) or silicon carbide (SiC) carry out the matrix surface sand blast.Blasting pressure is preferably 3~8 crust, particularly 4~6 clings to, and wherein available different granularity is carried out sandblast.The granularity (sieve-analysis curve of chap gradually) of handy continuous increase in other words, is at first used thinner particle, carries out sandblast with thicker particle then.Three kinds of different granularities of minimum usefulness (sieve-analysis curve of chap gradually) are particularly advantageous.Granularity is all in general sieve aperture scope, wherein the most handy 80 orders of particulate and thinner, particularly 100~230 orders.Middle the most handy 100 orders of granularity or bigger, particularly to 40 orders, best 80 orders~45 orders.When coarse granule, the most handy 45 orders or bigger and best 30 orders or bigger particle are preferably to 16 orders (600 microns~1.18 millimeters of standard sieve hole dimensions).
When sandblast, also can be in the scope of fluting for example reach the surface of good roughness in the scope of cut groove or groove with different granularities, wherein be about 5~10 microns at the average roughness depth RA of smooth scope inner surface structure, particularly 6.5~8 microns, when RZ, when being about 35~60 microns particularly 42~54 microns.On connecting rod, can reach the good especially tensile strength of adhering to of thermally sprayed coating with this sandblast roughness.
Then for example use a kind of Solder for Al-Cu Joint Welding-ferro-alloy (aluminum bronze) to carry out plasma spraying.Preferably the bearing coating of thermal spraying has the porosity ratio (another kind of or additional way is also to take other constantly measure of cooling in the process of thermal spraying) of continuous rising, wherein at first sprays little (≤2%, particularly≤1%) coating of a layer porosity.For this reason, should use the particle size of a kind of for example 38 microns (400 orders).This undercoat is sprayed into about 100~300 microns, 200~150 microns bed thickness particularly.Producing a layer porosity then is 2%-6%, particularly 2.5%~4% coating, and wherein the granularity of powder is for example used about 63 microns (230 orders).Particle size is to select like this, at least 40%, particularly at least 50% weight percentage that is powder is less than or equal to the standard sieve hole dimension, preferably at least 70% weight percentage, particularly at least 80% weight percentage are in next grade, in addition, best at least 90% weight percentage (halver size) in two diameters.
The thickness of coating can be selected in the given scope of undercoat equally.If only spray one deck, then this layer is preferably 100~600 micron thickness, particularly 200~400 micron thickness.
The present invention finds that the coating internal stress increases with the porosity ratio of continuous minimizing, thus the danger that exists this coating to peel off from tie rod holes.The present invention adopts special sandblast step especially, can reach the extra high bond strength of the coating on the tie rod holes with these sandblast steps.On the other hand, the present invention avoids because the disbonding that too high coating internal stress causes by the spraying temperature that improves coating.For example realize by voltage on the increase plasma gun or electric current.Coating is distributed on the matrix (tie rod holes) better, and reaches preferably and adhere to.Preferably only achieve this end by the certain small porosity that still has on the sprayfused coating, addressed in the above.On the other hand, the increase of spraying temperature also can cause the dead annealed danger of matrix, and in other words, matrix may be overheated.This is debatable when iron material especially.According to the present invention, solve this problem with high spraying temperature spraying by having only undercoat.Then with lower spraying temperature, particularly form other coating with higher porosity.If this higher porosity is not suitable for the sliding bearing that requires, then by the present invention, when the coating of this higher porosity was removed in back to back processing, this problem had just solved.In this case, the coating of the coating of higher porosity or lower temperature spraying only causes matrix is carried out one-time mechanical fine finishing.
The spraying of bearing coating is preferably in the one procedure to be carried out, and in other words, spraying process does not interrupt.For this reason, preferably carry out automatic powder coupling and/or parameter matching and reach different porosity ratios.
The bearing undercoat preferably covers out of roundness, this out of roundness for example since bearing shell when separating connecting rod break (typical out of roundness is 30~150 microns) that causes, other coatings that the then available simple technological method of this undercoat continues to spray to the particularly porous on the bearing material of connecting rod cover, and these other coating is that later fine finishing reaches enough thickness.It is little that this bottom is removed to actual sliding bearing coating (coating that hole is few) problem again.Can reach coating planted agent equilibrium of forces, connecting rod partial annealing or be the high tensile strength of adhering to of slight full annealing and sliding bearing coating by this technological method, this tensile strength is general 〉=20 Newton/millimeter
2, Newton/millimeter particularly 〉=25
2, also can be higher than 28 Newton/millimeter
2For example can reach coating hardness with aluminum bronze and be about 185HV
0.3Higher (Vickers hardness).
For the sliding bearing coating that mainly is the higher load in the connecting rod of used for diesel engine, particularly the big connecting rod hole, preferably increase the Fuel Oil Remaining in the sliding bearing coating.According to the present invention, when motor being stopped by in the sliding bearing coating, introducing one or more lubrication grooves or the oil storage volume of engine speed when being lower than idling speed increase and achieve this end.Like this, just can be when engine start or motor stop with the scope of short time by mixed friction.This short time, to be that the slip oil film is long kept or the very fast result who forms, and this slip oil film is because engine oil and bent axle with in the one or more grooves that are provided with in the micropore adhere to and cause.At least one groove is set, particularly has the surface of certain hole by the bearing coating,, also can reach this lubricating film and keep the long time even the oil pressure of pump descends or just sets up.When these grooves mainly radially extend when promptly along the circumferential direction extending, the effect of groove is good especially.These grooves itself are closed be succeeding vat particularly the succeeding vat of annular is the most favourable.Groove is preferably made forming V-shape or trapezoidal, and the angle that the both sides of groove press from both sides is preferably 30 °~80 °, particularly 45 °~60 °.The degree of depth of groove is preferably 0.2~1 millimeter, 0.4~0.6 millimeter scope particularly.The number of groove is preferably determined according to the load-bearing ratio of plain journal bearing width, sliding bearing and required additional oil storage volume.The shape of given groove and the degree of depth preferably are as the criterion with the state before the thermal spraying.Then use the plasma spraying advantageous particularly as thermal spraying.
After one or more grooves were set, matrix surface preferably applied sliding layer, and particularly coating has the composite bearing coating of above-mentioned different porosities.When and then carrying out bearing surface fine finishing, these grooves are not preferably reprocessed or are only carried out seldom processing, and like this, coarse plasma-coated structure produces good especially oil storage effect.
When spraying bearing coating, preferably carry out a kind of metal spraying, and preferably adopt metal alloy.In addition, also can adopt the mixture of different metal (particularly metal alloy).This mixture for example can be the mixture of aluminium and tin, and wherein, it is particularly advantageous that this mixture is mixed by pulverous single composition.The grade of metallic dust depends on various spray parameters and can be determined easily by a series of tests by the Professional visitors.As the most handy bronze of bearing material, particularly aluminum bronze (mock silver), but also available copper bronze is gone back available metal-soft material layer and/or metal-solid lubricant layer.As the soft material soft metal of available lead and so on for example, this class soft metal is distributed in a kind of harder metal, for example (aluminium/copper/magnesium/chromium) in the aluminium of alloy.But as also available other material of soft material, fluoropolymer polymer (for example teflon) for example.Can use the compound of molybdenum sulfide, boron nitride or graphite and so on as solid lubricant.
It is particularly advantageous spraying excessive bearing material, and excessive part is then removed with machine flinishing.The for example available honing of fine finishing, particularly suitable correct grinding here.When honing, preferably bearing material is ground off 20~300 microns, particularly 50~200 microns; When correct grinding, surplus is preferably 50~1000 microns, particularly 100~500 microns.
Last bearing coating (after removing machining allowance) is preferably 150~800 microns, particularly 200~500 microns.To reach 2.5 millimeters general bearing shell much thin than thick for such coating.In other words, the more material (can bear higher load) that perhaps can exist on connecting rod perhaps can directly make lighter weight with connecting.
According to the present invention, after being preferably in the bearing material spraying, the tie rod holes of carrying out thermal spraying with bearing material just opens.This technological method is particularly useful for the occasion that tie rod holes breaks (splitting).In this method, tie rod holes (the inside) is provided with a grooving respectively at the position that requires to break.It is particularly advantageous that these groovings are processed with a kind of laser, and for example a kind of FK (remote control) laser drives in the tie rod holes with about 45 °.The power of laser can be with 5~10 kilowatts.It is best wide 0.3~0.8 millimeter to slot, dark 0.2~0.7 millimeter.Fracture site is general roughly at the center of tie rod holes.Another kind of way is that also available etch or broaching tool for example slotting are slotted.
At tie rod holes fluting with when breaking, preferably undertaken: at first, carry out the spraying of bearing material then with heat spraying method, then break at tie rod holes internal recessing (for example with a kind of cutter, laser or by corroding) by such operation.Cancelled generally in fracture site or the slit (perhaps being reduced to bottom line) that between single bearing shell, exists by this technological method.A slit like this can cause that when big engine load oil film separates.Owing to carry out before being recessed at the bearing material spraying, so can reach greasy property preferably.Under a stable condition, also can before the bearing material spraying, break, at this moment bearing material then will (preferably not slotted) once more and is broken.
If tie rod holes is opened by incision, then be preferably in thermal spraying and carry out cutting tie rod holes by this technological method before the spraying of bearing material, and the parting surface of remaining connecting rod and connecting rod cap is polished separately.These parts assemble again, link together with hole, screw thread and bolt then.Be preferably in this and be screwed in together the tie rod holes with bolt again and also open a groove, particularly before with the bearing material spraying, carry out at this place (at separated part).Then in order to separate the bearing coating.Preferably break tie rod holes again.Carry out too inhomogeneously if at this moment break, then bearing coating itself must fluting.
Just carry out the above-mentioned processing (honing or grinding) of bearing coating after being preferably in tie rod holes and opening, when the bearing coating breaks, may just can remove simultaneously breaking the burr that produces on the limit like this with removing machining allowance.
In the connecting rod of making by the present invention, also oil circuit can be set in tie rod holes.After this oil circuit is preferably in the bearing coating spraying, particularly just drilling in tie rod holes after the fine finishing of bearing coating.Like this, this oil circuit also can pass the tie rod holes of connecting rod drilling to the opposite.
According to the present invention, the plane of connecting rod (big side) also is preferably in just fine finishing behind the bearing coating spraying.This fine finishing is the most handy plain grinding here.
The method according to this invention, tie rod holes are carried out the hacking operation one before being preferably in spraying.Particularly preferably carry out hacking, but also available a kind of highly pressurised liquid sprays by sandblast.The material of tie rod holes during in particular for the C70 steel best hacking be 4~30 microns to average roughness depth Ra, particularly 8~12 microns.When such average roughness depth, can reach on good especially the material of bearing material attached to tie rod holes.
At least one plane in tie rod holes average covers processing advantageous particularly to tie rod holes inner bearing coating with a model, and this piece model has a hole in the scope of tie rod holes.This hole is roughly the same with tie rod holes big, and like this, spraying process is not disturbed by model on the one hand, has avoided the plane spraying in the tie rod holes scope on the other hand to a great extent.If have only a plane model Gai Zhu, then other plane preferably is positioned at a pallet, and the decent plate of this pallet is such, has a hole in the scope of tie rod holes equally.
According to the present invention, the tie rod holes of each connecting rod is preferably in the one procedure and sprays.For this reason, a plurality of connecting rods, best 2~10, particularly 4~8 connecting rods make tie rod holes to be sprayed form a cylindrical body like this pile together.For this reason, the centralizer of connecting rod can be set on a purpose-made pallet, connecting rod is put into this device.With this method the time, preferably in fact simultaneously the spraying connecting rod as one group of preservation, so that in the internal-combustion engine of then packing into jointly.Whole (similar) connecting rod of an internal-combustion engine preferably sprays jointly by overlapping placement.If the impossible overlapping placement owing to number of cylinders (for example 12 cylinders), then the overlapping placement of connecting rod of at least one cylinder series (being 6 cylinders when the V12 h type engine h) sprays.Can reach with this technological method the connecting rod of equal in quality is contained in the internal-combustion engine.
In the process of thermal spraying, particularly when the many overlapping placements of connecting rod sprayed, it was particularly advantageous having air communication to cross tie rod holes.Preferably with the air of handling and purifying, in fact particularly this air-flow should not have oil and no humidity and keeps a temperature range (about 20 ℃) as far as possible as air-flow.This gas preferably has 3~15 meter per seconds, the particularly flow velocity of 5~8 meter per seconds (air rate of descent).The overspray that produces when blowing spraying off with this air-flow.
The most handy swivel nozzle of the spraying of bearing material carries out, and this nozzle particularly also just constantly rotates in the tie rod holes (or a plurality of tie rod holes) above tie rod holes.Can reach uniformly spraying especially of tie rod holes with this nozzle.When spraying tie rod holes according to the present invention, the feed speed that this nozzle enters tie rod holes and passes tie rod holes is preferably 0.5~20 mm/second, particularly 2~8 mm/second.
When spraying, it is particularly advantageous that the multi-layer bearing material is sprayed on the tie rod holes, wherein is preferably in the tie rod holes and forms 4~30 layers.The most handy different direction of these layers sprays, and this helps to improve coating quality.When the spraying tie rod holes, achieve this end like this, promptly in the process that the process neutralization that nozzle enters is pulled out, carry out the spraying of tie rod holes, rotating nozzle preferably keeps its sense of rotation simultaneously.
