Since it is used in the same container as the gears, it is inevitable that minute hard foreign substances such as chipped pieces of gears and abrasion powder mixed into the lubricating oil enter. These foreign substances may be caught by the rolling surface of the rolling element, causing surface separation on the rolling element and the race, thereby shortening the life of the bearing. It is considered that this surface peeling is caused by the generation and propagation of cracks from indentations caused by foreign matter biting.

UJ3 equivalent steel is quenched at a high temperature to increase the retained austenite, and at the same time, to suppress crack sensitivity, a technique is disclosed in which the cooling rate in the quenching process is controlled to be slow. A technique is disclosed in which SUJ3 equivalent steel is used as a material for a raceway, and carbonitriding is added to the above-described heat treatment to further increase retained austenite in a surface layer portion.

Tend to be. In many cases, the needle roller bearing is mounted on the shaft without the race, and in this case, the needle roller comes into direct contact with the polished shaft, and this tendency is likely to be further promoted.

を確保できない問題がある。In applications in which heat is generated in the above-described bearing portion, the temperature of the needle roller is the largest because the heat capacity of the needle roller is small and the diffusion of heat due to contact with other members is small. Under such conditions of use, the life of the needle rollers was significantly reduced due to the surface peeling, and the above-mentioned Japanese Patent Publication No. Sho 62-2
There is a problem that a sufficient durable life cannot be ensured even if the material disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 9487 is used.

る。SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention relates to a needle roller bearing, wherein at least the needle rollers have a weight ratio of C: 0.8 to 1.5%. S
Steel containing i: 0.4 to 1.2%, Mn: 0.8 to 1.5% and Cr: 0.8 to 1.8% is used as a material, and after carbonitriding this material, it is quenched. and tempering treatment, the amount of retained austenite of the surface layer portion 20 to 40% by volume, in which the surface hardness is adopted a configuration in which the H V 750 or more.
【0008】前記針状ころの素材とする鋼の組成につい

れ硬度を確保するとともに、残留オーステナイト量を増
加させるためである。The reason why the amount of C is set to 0.8 to 1.5% in the steel composition used as the material of the needle roller is to secure the basic quenching hardness and increase the amount of retained austenite. is there.

る。The reason why the amount of Si is set to 0.4% or more is to stabilize the retained austenite in the surface layer portion and to prevent high-temperature softening by adding Si having tempering softening resistance. The reason for setting it to 0.2% is that if it exceeds this, the intrusion of carbon and nitrogen is hindered during the carbonitriding process.

って軟化の原因となるため、上限を1.5%とした。[0010] The reason why the Mn content is set to 0.8 to 1.5% is to secure the hardenability and harden to the core, and to increase the amount of retained austenite in the surface layer. Excessive M
Since the addition of the amount of n causes a reduction in cold workability and quenching cracks, and an excessive amount of retained austenite in the surface layer portion causes softening, the upper limit is made 1.5%.

らである。The reason why the amount of Cr is set to 0.8 to 1.8% is as follows.
If it is less than 0.8%, carbides are not formed to the extent that the required surface hardness can be maintained even at high temperatures, and if it exceeds 1.8%, the carbides become coarse and easily become the starting point of surface peeling.

る。When steel having such a composition is used as a material for needle rollers and the nitrogen content in the surface layer is increased by carbonitriding, the Ms point (martensite transformation start temperature) in the surface layer becomes lower than that in the interior. When this is quenched, untransformed austenite increases in the surface layer portion of the needle roller, and the amount of retained austenite in the surface layer portion can be increased to 20% by volume or more.

され、表層部の疲労強度を高めることもできる。[0013] Retained austenite has high toughness and work hardening properties, and functions to suppress the generation and propagation of cracks, but has a disadvantage that it is unstable to heat. The nitrogen atoms that have penetrated into the surface layer by the carbonitriding process form a solid solution in the retained austenite, and serve to stabilize the retained austenite against heat. Further, in the surface layer portion in which the Ms point is lowered, the martensitic transformation starts later than the inside and the amount of the transformation is smaller than the inside, so that residual stress of compression is formed in the surface layer and the fatigue strength of the surface layer is increased. You can also.

0以上という条件を満たすことができず、また塑性変形
による表面粗さの劣化を招く。The amount of retained austenite in the surface layer is 20
The reason for setting the content to 4040% by volume is to impart appropriate toughness to the surface layer portion and to alleviate an excessive increase in stress due to foreign matter being caught. That is, if the amount of retained austenite is less than 20% by volume, the toughness is insufficient, and the amount of retained austenite is 40%.
If it exceeds the volume%, the hardness is too low and the following H V 75
The condition of 0 or more cannot be satisfied, and the surface roughness is deteriorated due to plastic deformation.

針状ころの長寿命化を図ることができる。When foreign matter is caught, when the surface temperature rise is large, or when the mating surface is rough, there is a possibility that the starting point of the crack may be on the surface or the very surface layer (within 0.1 mm from the surface). Since it is high, the service life of the needle roller can be prolonged by improving the material of the surface layer described above.

もよい。The heat treatment including the carbonitriding treatment described above can employ a method of performing a carbonitriding treatment in a high-temperature gas obtained by adding an ammonia gas to a carburizing atmosphere, followed by quenching and tempering. In order to adjust the amount of retained austenite, a sub-zero treatment may be incorporated in the heat treatment step.

By lowering the cooling rate, the crack sensitivity can be reduced to 3 or less. When the crack sensitivity value is 3 or less, it is effective to prevent the occurrence of cracks during use and to suppress the growth rate of cracks even if they occur. As a means for setting the cooling capacity H at the time of quenching cooling in the temperature range of 300 ° C. to 150 ° C. to 0.2 cm −1 or less, a method of quenching oil or a salt bath heated to a predetermined temperature may be adopted. it can.

Needle roller bearings (Comparative Examples I to K in Table 1) using needle rollers that were heat-treated under the same conditions as in Example 1 were prepared.

On the other hand, in Comparative Examples I to K in which the range of the chemical components of the material is out of the range, the life ratio of the rolling test shows a relatively high value, but the life ratio of the life test under the foreign matter is inferior. This is because carbonitriding is inhibited in Comparative Example I where the amount of Si is excessive, carbides are coarsened in Comparative Example J where the amount of Cr is excessive, and residual austenite in the surface layer portion in Comparative Example K where the amount of Mn is excessive. It is considered that the amount exceeds 40% by volume, respectively.
