Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve the problem that fouling and galling at the sliding part are caused by the deposition of chips to grease applied between a tool holder and a slider in a conventional cutting tool, and that in addition to it, the maintenance has to be frequently executed. <P>SOLUTION: The cutting tool, which is used under lubricating oil to be supplied in the form of mist, is provided with the slider 7 as a moving body coming into sliding contact with the tool holder 2. A hard carbon film is formed to at least either of the sliding contact faces of the tool holder 2 and the slider 7. Accordingly, the friction at the sliding contact part is significantly reduced. The occurrence of the fouling and galling caused by the chips is prevented beforehand by eliminating the grease. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a cutting tool used for cutting a metal member, and more particularly to a cutting tool including a moving body that is in sliding contact with a tool holder.
[0002]
[Prior art]
As a cutting tool provided with a moving body, for example, there is a tool used for finishing a stem guide hole of a valve and a seat ring of a valve in manufacture of an engine cylinder block. This cutting tool is called a tool holder, and is provided with a gun reamer for machining a stem guide hole and a bite for machining a seat ring in the tool holder, and is supplied in a mist form. Below, both the stem guide hole and the seat ring are processed at the same time to obtain both with high accuracy. Here, the cutting tool is provided on a slider (moving body) that is in sliding contact with the tool holder in order to process surfaces with different angles on the seat ring, and grease is applied to the sliding contact surface with the tool holder. By doing so, lubricity was ensured.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, in the conventional cutting tools as described above, since grease is applied between the tool holder and the slider, chips adhere to the grease, and the sliding portion is contaminated and galling, and the grease deteriorates. Therefore, there is a problem that maintenance must be performed frequently, and solving such a problem has been a problem.
[0004]
OBJECT OF THE INVENTION
The present invention has been made paying attention to the above-mentioned conventional problems, and provides a cutting tool that can greatly reduce the friction at the sliding contact portion between the tool holder and the moving body and can eliminate grease. The purpose is to do.
[0005]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The cutting tool of the present invention is a cutting tool used under lubricating oil supplied in the form of a mist, and includes a moving body that is in sliding contact with the tool holder, and at least one of the tool holder and the moving body. It is characterized in that a hard carbon coating is formed on the sliding contact surface, and the hardness of the sliding contact surface is made sufficiently high to achieve a significant reduction in friction.
[0006]
【The invention's effect】
According to the cutting tool of the present invention, friction at the sliding contact portion between the tool holder and the moving body can be greatly reduced, smooth operation can be realized over a long period, and grease can be eliminated. Therefore, it is possible to prevent contamination and galling due to the adhesion of chips in advance and to make it substantially maintenance-free.
[0007]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail. In the present specification, “%” indicates mass percentage unless otherwise specified.
[0008]
A cutting tool 1 shown in FIG. 1A is called a tool holder, and in the manufacture of a cylinder head CH of an automobile, a stem guide hole G of a valve (not shown) and a seat ring R of the valve are simultaneously finished. To be processed. This cutting tool 1 includes a guide bush 3 for guiding a gun reamer A for machining a stem guide hole G, and a hollow rotating shaft 5 having a cylindrical member 4 connected to the tip, inside a hollow tool holder 2. Advancing and retracting rods 6 slidably inserted in the rotating shaft 5 are coaxially provided. Then, the base end portion (not shown) of the gun reamer A is connected to the tip of the advance / retreat rod 6 and is attached to a spindle head of a processing apparatus (not shown) so as to rotate as a whole.
[0009]
Further, the cutting tool 1 includes a slider 7 as a moving body that is in sliding contact with the tool holder 2 on the side of the tool holder 2. The slider 7 can reciprocate in an oblique direction with respect to the axial direction of the tool holder 2, includes a slide pin 8 that is slidably inserted into the cylindrical member 4, and a retainer 9 on the tool tip side. And a tool B for processing the seat ring R is provided between the pair of sliding members 10a and 10b fixed to the tool holder 2, as shown in FIG. The contact surface with one sliding member 10a is waved.
[0010]
When the rotary shaft 5 is retracted from the illustrated state, the slider 7 moves backward with respect to the tool holder 2 with the sliding of the cylindrical member 4 and the slide pin 8, and advances with the advance of the rotary shaft 5. . That is, the slider 7 moves with the retainer 9 and the cutting tool 8 in conjunction with the forward / backward movement of the rotary shaft 5 when machining the surfaces with different angles on the seat ring R, and the position of the cutting tool B with respect to the seat ring R is changed. change. At this time, the slider 7 comes into sliding contact with the tool holder 2 including the sliding members 10a and 10b.
[0011]
Therefore, in the cutting tool 1, a hard carbon coating is formed on at least one sliding contact surface of the tool holder 2 and the slider 7, thereby making the hardness of the sliding contact surface sufficiently high so that friction is greatly increased. Reduction can be realized, and the grease used in the past can be abolished. Further, in the example in which the hard carbon film was formed and in the conventional example in which the film was not formed, the frictional resistance of both sliding contact surfaces was measured. As shown in FIG. The effect of reducing frictional resistance was obtained.
[0012]
The hard carbon thin film is desirably a DLC thin film (diamond-like carbon thin film) formed by various PVD methods, specifically, an arc ion plating method. This DLC thin film is an amorphous material mainly composed of carbon element, and specifically, a-C (amorphous carbon) composed only of carbon element, aC: H (hydrogen amorphous containing hydrogen). Carbon), and MeC (metal carbon or metal carbide) partially containing metal elements such as titanium (Ti) and molybdenum (Mo). From the viewpoint of exerting a significant friction reducing effect, the hydrogen content is The smaller the content, the more preferable, the hydrogen atom content is 10.0 atom% or less, more preferably the hydrogen atom content is 1.0 atom% or less, and further no aC-based (amorphous carbon) material containing hydrogen. The film thickness is preferably 0.3 to 1.5 μm.
[0013]
Here, when the surface roughness of the base material of the tool holder and the slider, that is, the surface roughness of the sliding contact surface before coating of the hard carbon thin film exceeds 0.08 μm in Ra, the surface roughness of the hard carbon thin film is reduced. Since the resulting protrusion increases the local contact area with the sliding partner and induces cracking of the coating, the surface roughness of the sliding contact surface before coating with the hard carbon thin film is set to Ra of 0. The surface roughness of the sliding contact surface before coating with the hard carbon thin film is preferably 0.03 μm or less in terms of Ra. It is also effective to prevent cracking of the above-mentioned film by setting the surface roughness of the induction (sliding error) contact surface where the hard carbon thin film is not formed (not formed) to Ra of 0.08 μm or less. It is.
