2. Description of the Related Art Some steel members are used as they are rolled. However, members requiring wear resistance (hardness), strength and toughness are subjected to heat treatment. The steel member used after being subjected to the heat treatment is referred to as a heat-treated member.
Representative examples of the heat treatment member include a track plate 21, a link 22, a pin 23, a bush 24 used in an endless track belt 20 of a construction machine such as a hydraulic shovel and a bulldozer shown in FIG. 4, and FIGS. And a blade 31 used for a construction machine 30 such as a bulldozer and a snow removal machine 32, and many other machine structural parts used for various industrial machines are heat-treated members. Conventional methods for manufacturing heat-treated members include a method shown in FIG. 2 in which low carbon steel and medium carbon steel are used as materials and quenching and tempering are performed as heat treatment, and a method shown in FIG. (Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 11-140540)
No.). The method shown in FIG. 2 includes a step 11 of forming a material by shaping a steel material into a predetermined shape, and a step 12 of performing a heat treatment on the material. The heat treatment includes a step of “quenching” and a step of “tempering”. Quenching and tempering were always in pairs. The reason why two steps of heat treatment of quenching and tempering are required is as follows. In general, in a heat-treated member, wear resistance (hardness) and strength and toughness are contradictory characteristics. Just quenching,
Abrasion resistance (hardness) and strength are greatly improved, but toughness is significantly lower. By performing a heat treatment called "tempering" after a heat treatment called "quenching", the abrasion resistance (hardness) and strength are slightly reduced as compared with the as-quenched one, but the toughness is greatly improved and the necessary Abrasion resistance (hardness) and strength and toughness are ensured. That is, unless two heat treatments of quenching and tempering are performed, the required wear resistance (hardness), strength, and toughness cannot be secured. The method shown in FIG. 3 includes a step 13 of forming a material by shaping a low-carbon boron steel material into a predetermined shape, and a step 14 of subjecting the material to a heat treatment consisting only of “quenching”.
"Quenching" was omitted, and "tempering" was omitted. Low carbon boron steel (carbon content 0.05-0.3)
0% by weight), the metal structure becomes a single structure of low-carbon martensite as-quenched, and becomes the same as the metal structure subjected to “quenching” and “tempering”,
They found that tempering could be omitted.
The invention of No. 0540 has been reached. As a result, in the case of low-carbon boron steel, the number of steps, time, and equipment required for heat treatment were significantly reduced.

However, the conventional method for manufacturing a heat-treated member has the following problems. In the case of a heat-treated member made of medium carbon steel, if only quenching is used, the toughness (Charpy impact value) is low and it cannot be used as a heat-treated member. Therefore, quenching and tempering heat treatment must be performed. Man-hours, time,
The equipment requires more quenching than low carbon boron steel. In the case of a heat-treated member made of low-carbon boron steel, -1. Since the carbon content is 0.05 to 0.30% by weight, it cannot be applied to members that require further strength and wear resistance.
For example, when the carbon content of low-carbon boron steel is 0.30% (heat treatment step: only quenching), the following mechanical properties are maximum, and further strength and wear resistance cannot be obtained. Hardness: HRC50 (factor of wear resistance) Tensile strength: 160 kg / mm 2 (factor of strength) -2. Due to the reason -1, the thickness cannot be reduced and the weight cannot be reduced without changing the material from low carbon steel to medium carbon steel. Since two steps of quenching and tempering are required in the heat treatment, the number of steps, time, and equipment are increased, and the cost is increased. An object of the present invention is to reduce the number of steps, time, and equipment of heat treatment as compared with the case where a conventional medium carbon steel is used as a material and heat treatment for quenching and tempering is performed. An object of the present invention is to provide a method for manufacturing a heat-treated member, which can improve abrasion resistance (hardness) and strength as well as secure required toughness as compared with the case of applying heat treatment.

In the method of manufacturing a heat-treated member according to the above (1) to (4), in the step of performing the heat treatment, the material is subjected to a heat treatment consisting only of quenching, which is compared with the conventional heat treatment consisting of two steps of quenching and tempering. Since the tempering process is omitted, the tempering process, man-hours, and time are reduced, and the tempering equipment is not required. As a result, the manufacturing cost of the heat-treated member can be reduced. Further, since the carbon content of the material is 0.301 to 0.50% by weight, the hardness and strength after heat treatment are improved, and further reduction in thickness and weight can be achieved as compared with low carbon steel. it can. Conventionally, medium carbon steel has been considered to have low toughness as it is hardened and cannot be used as a heat-treated member.However, by investigating the limit of required toughness from actual use results and increasing the toughness by adding boron,
It has been found that even with a medium carbon low alloy steel, quenching can be omitted as it is, that is, tempering can be omitted. That is, the Charpy impact value is 5 kg · m / cm 2 or more, and the fracture toughness value is 250 Kg.
When the g / mm is 1.5 or more, it is determined that there is no breakage accident during use. This condition is quenched if the material is medium carbon boron steel (boron amount: 0.0001 to 0.0100% by weight). It was confirmed by a test that satisfactory results were obtained only by omitting the tempering, and the present invention was reached. In the method (2) for manufacturing a heat-treated member, the carbon content is 0.30.
At 1 to 0.50% by weight, the as-quenched alloy has a mixed structure of a low carbon martensite structure and a medium carbon martensite structure. However, since the carbon content is set to 0.301 to 0.34% by weight, low carbon martensite is used. A large number of site structures can be present, the toughness of the low-carbon steel can be retained, and the required toughness can be relatively easily secured by adding boron. In the method (3) for producing a heat-treated member, since 0.0001 to 0.0100% by weight of boron is added, necessary toughness can be secured. In the method for manufacturing a heat-treated member according to the above (4), the amount of boron is set to 0.0005 to 0.5.
Since 0030% by weight is added, necessary toughness can be secured. The reason for adding boron is to ensure hardenability and toughness in a high hardness region. Explaining the hardenability, in a region where the carbon content of the low carbon steel and the medium carbon steel is small, there is a problem that it is difficult to harden to the core of the heat-treated member in the hardening process.
1 to 0.0100% by weight, more preferably 0.000%
The necessary hardenability is secured by adding 5 to 0.0030% by weight. Thus, the method of the present invention can be applied to not only a case where only the surface layer is quenched and hardened as in induction hardening, but also a general heat-treated member which needs to be hardened and hardened to the core. If it is difficult to secure the necessary hardenability with boron alone in a large heat-treated member, Mn, Cr, Mo, etc., which are other elements (components) that improve the hardenability, are added in addition to boron. May be. Another reason for adding boron is in the high hardness region (HRC4
(About 0 or more). As mentioned above,
By using a medium-carbon boron steel as a material, necessary hardness, strength, and toughness can be ensured only by quenching (without tempering).
