Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a grease composition for use in constant velocity joints, in particular, for ball type fixed and plunging constant velocity joints.
  • a very high contact pressure is developed between the parts of the constant velocity joints to be lubricated and the joint parts undergo complicated rolling and sliding motions. This often results in abnormal wear and metal fatigue and, in turn, leads to a spalling phenomenon, i.e., pitting of the joint parts.
  • the present invention relates to a grease composition for constant velocity joints which can effectively lubricate such constant velocity joints to effectively reduce the wear of joints and to effectively reduce the occurrence of any pitting of the parts.
  • lubricating greases conventionally used in such constant velocity joints include a lithium soap thickened extreme pressure grease containing molybdenum disulfide and a lithium soap thickened extreme pressure grease containing molybdenum disulfide and extreme pressure agents, e.g., sulfur-phosphorus or a lead naphthenate.
  • extreme pressure agents e.g., sulfur-phosphorus or a lead naphthenate.
  • FF-type motorcars For use in these vehicles constant velocity joints need to be as making light and small as possible.
  • the double offset type constant velocity joints and cross groove type constant velocity joints used as the plunging joints as well as Birfield joints used as the fixed joints have a structure in which torques are transmitted through 6 balls. These joints cause complicated reciprocating motions such as complicated rolling and sliding motions during rotation under a high contact pressure, stresses are repeatedly applied to the balls and the metal surfaces which come in contact with the balls and accordingly, the pitting phenomenon is apt to occur at such portions due to metal fatigue.
  • the recent improvement in the power of engines is accompanied by an increase in the contact pressure as compared with conventional engines.
  • an object of the present invention is to provide a novel grease composition for constant velocity joints which has an excellent pitting-inhibitory effect and heat resistance.
  • the inventors of this invention have conducted various studies to develop a grease composition capable of optimizing the frictional wear of the constant velocity joints and of eliminating the problem of pitting of joints due to abnormal wear and metal fatigue and having improved heat resistance.
  • the inventors have carried out a quality evaluation of greases used under lubricating conditions which are accompanied by complicated reciprocating motions such as complicated rolling and sliding motions under a high contact pressure as has been discussed above using an SRV (Schwingung Reibung und Verschleiss) tester known as an oscillating friction and wear tester, to determine lubricating characteristics (such as friction coefficient and wear) of various kinds of extreme pressure agents, solid lubricants or combinations of additives.
  • SRV Hughes Reibung und Verschleiss
  • a grease comprising a specific combination of a base oil, an urea thickener, molybdenum disulfide, a calcium salt or an overbasic calcium salt of a specific compound, a metal-free sulfur-phosphorus extreme pressure agent and molybdenum dithiocarbamate exhibits desired lubricating characteristics such as a good friction coefficient and low wear and have confirmed, by a durability test performed using a practical constant velocity joint, that the grease can prevent the occurrence of any pitting phenomena, unlike the conventional greases for constant velocity joints and thus have completed the present invention.
  • the base oil as Component (a) is not restricted to specific ones and may be, for instance, lubricating oils currently used such as mineral oils, ester type synthetic oils, ether type synthetic oils, hydrocarbon type synthetic oils or mixture thereof.
  • the urea thickener as Component (b) is not restricted to specific ones and may be, for instance, diurea compounds and polyurea compounds.
  • diurea compounds include those obtained through a reaction of a monoamine with a diisocyanate compound.
  • diisocyanates include phenylene diisocyanate, diphenyl diisocyanate, phenyl diisocyanate, diphenylmethane diisocyanate, octadecane diisocyanate, decane diisocyanate, and hexane diisocyanate.
  • monoamines include octylamine, dodecylamine, hexadecylamine, octadecylamine, oleylamine, aniline, p-toluidine, and cyclohexylamine.
  • Examples of the polyurea compounds include those obtained through a reaction of a diamine with a diisocyanate compound.
  • examples of the diisocyanates include those used for the formation of the diurea compounds as mentioned above.
  • examples of the diamines include ethylenediamine, propanediamine, butanediamine, hexanediamine, octanediamine, phenylenediamine, tolylenediamine, and xylenediamine.
  • urea thickeners include those obtained through a reaction of aryl amine such as aniline or p-toluidine, cyclohexyl amine or a mixture thereof with a diisocyante.
  • aryl group in the diurea compounds is preferably those having 6 or 7 carbon atoms and the rate of the aryl group in the diurea compound ranges from 100 to 0 mole% based on the total moles of the aryl and the cyclohexyl groups in the diurea compounds.
  • the molybdenum disulfide as Component (c) has widely been used as an extreme pressure agent. With regard to the lubricating mechanism thereof, the molybdenum disulfide is easily sheared under the sliding motions through the formation of a thin layer since it has a layer lattice structure and it shows effects of reducing the frictional force and of preventing seizure of joints.
  • the calcium salts or overbasic calcium salts as Component (d) are selelcted from those known as metal cleaning dispersants or rust-inhibitors which are used in lubricants such as engine oils, such as calcium salts of oxidized waxes, calcium salts of petroleum sulfonates which are obtained by the sulfonation of aromatic hydrocarbon in lubricating oil fraction, calcium salts of synthetic sulfonates such as dinonylnaphthalene sulfonic acid and alkylbenzene sulfonic acid, calcium salts of salicylate, calcium salts of phenates, overbasic calcium salts of oxidized waxes, overbasic calcium salts of petroleum sulfonates, overbasic calcium salts of alkyl aryl sulfonates, overbasic calcium salts of salicylate, and overbasic calcium salts of phenates.
  • metal cleaning dispersants or rust-inhibitors which are used in lubricants such as
  • Preferred metal-free sulfur-phosphorus extreme pressure agents as Component (e) have a sulfur content ranging from 15 to 35% by weight and a phosphorus content ranging from 0.5 to 3% by weight and exhibit excellent effects of inhibiting wear and of preventing seizure of the joints through the well-established balance between the sulfur and phosphorus contents.
  • the grease composition for constant velocity joints according to the present invention may further comprise antioxidants, corrosion inhibitors, rust inhibitors in addition to the foregoing essential components.
  • the grease composition for constant velocity joints preferably comprises, on the basis of the total weight of the grease composition, 52.0 to 97.8% by weight of the base oil (a); 1 to 25% by weight of the urea thickener (b); 0.5 to 5% by weight of the molybdenum disulfide (c); 0.5 to 15% by weight of the calcium salt or overbasic calcium salt (d); 0.1 to 3% by weight of the metal-free sulfur-phosphorus extreme pressure agent (e); and 0.1 to 5% by weight of the molybdenum dithiocarbamate (f).
  • Test Piece ball: diameter 10 mm (SUJ-2)
  • cylindrical plate diameter 24 mm ⁇ 7.85 mm (SUJ-2)
  • the greases were inspected, under the following conditions, for the occurrence of pitting by a durability test on a bench using real joints.
  • the grease composition for constant velocity joints consists essentially of (a) a base oil; (b) an urea thickener; (c) molybdenum disulfide; (d) a specific calcium salt or a specific overbasic calcium salt; (e) a metal-free sulfur-phosphorus extreme pressure agent; and (f) molybdenum dithiocarbamate and thus exhibits excellent wear-resistant effect and an excellent pitting-inhibitory effect as is also apparent from the comparison of the results of Examples with those of Comparative Examples.
