Abstract
Description
本発明は、自動車車輪軸受に使用するためのグリース組成物に関する。 The present invention relates to a grease composition for use in automobile wheel bearings.
自動車車輪軸受において、軸受はタイヤを介して車両の重量を支えるとともに、車両の走行状態に応じてタイヤ接地点よりラジアル、スラスト及びモーメント荷重、さらには衝撃荷重などを受け、比較的厳しい負荷条件で使用される（非特許文献１）。そのため金属疲労におるフレーキングが発生しやすい。従来、フレーキング寿命（軸受材料の疲労寿命）を延長するのに、潤滑油膜を厚くする（油の粘度を高くする）方法がとられてきたが、未だ満足の性能を有するグリース組成物は得られていない。
また、車両の貨車輸送中に軸受が微振動等することにより軸受が磨耗し、フレッチングと呼ばれる現象が発生することがある。従来、フレッチングを低減するのに、油膜強度が高く流動性の良好なグリースを用い潤滑性を向上することなどの対策がとられてきた。しかし、未だ満足のいくグリース組成物は得られていない。
一方、自動車の使用年数、走行距離が長くなると、グリース組成物が酸化劣化して所望の性能が発揮できない。このため、グリース組成物の酸化寿命（潤滑寿命）を延長することが望まれている。
他方、自動車車輪軸受は、負荷する荷重の違いにより、玉軸受（主に乗用車用）と円すいころ軸受（主にトラック用）とに大別されるが、円すいころ軸受のころ端面でのすべりにおける油膜切れにより、ころ端面に損傷が発生することがある。この損傷は、一般的にころ端面のかじりと称され、従来、油量の増加、潤滑剤の極圧性向上などの対策がとられてきた。
なお、自動車車輪軸受は、その構造により軸受単体（規格適合軸受を２個使用）、２個の軸受をユニット化した第１世代、ハブ軸またはナックルの一部を軸受に組み込んだ第２世代、ハブ輪とナックル軸受に組み込んだ第３世代、さらに軸受内輪と等速ジョイント外輪が一体化した第４世代に分けられるが、既述の諸問題は各世代に共通のものである。
In automobile wheel bearings, the bearings support the weight of the vehicle through the tires, and receive radial, thrust and moment loads from the tire contact point according to the running state of the vehicle, as well as impact loads, etc. under relatively severe load conditions. Used (Non-Patent Document 1). Therefore, flaking due to metal fatigue is likely to occur. Conventionally, in order to extend the flaking life (fatigue life of the bearing material), a method of increasing the thickness of the lubricating oil film (increasing the viscosity of the oil) has been taken, but a grease composition still having satisfactory performance is obtained. It is not done.
In addition, the bearing may be worn due to slight vibration during transportation of the freight car, and a phenomenon called fretting may occur. Conventionally, in order to reduce fretting, measures have been taken such as improving the lubricity by using grease having high oil film strength and good fluidity. However, a satisfactory grease composition has not yet been obtained.
On the other hand, when the service life and travel distance of an automobile become long, the grease composition is oxidized and deteriorated, so that desired performance cannot be exhibited. For this reason, it is desired to extend the oxidation life (lubrication life) of the grease composition.
On the other hand, automobile wheel bearings are roughly classified into ball bearings (mainly for passenger cars) and tapered roller bearings (mainly for trucks) depending on the load applied, but in sliding at the roller end face of tapered roller bearings. The roller end face may be damaged due to the oil film running out. This damage is generally referred to as galling of the roller end face, and conventionally, measures such as an increase in the amount of oil and an improvement in the extreme pressure property of the lubricant have been taken.
In addition, automobile wheel bearings are a single bearing (using two standard conforming bearings) depending on the structure, the first generation in which two bearings are unitized, the second generation in which part of the hub axle or knuckle is incorporated in the bearing, It is divided into a third generation incorporated in the hub ring and the knuckle bearing, and a fourth generation in which the bearing inner ring and the constant velocity joint outer ring are integrated. The above-mentioned problems are common to each generation.
従って、本発明は、自動車車輪軸受におけるフレーキング寿命及び潤滑寿命を延長し、フレッチングを低減した自動車車輪軸受用グリース組成物を提供することを目的とする。 Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a grease composition for an automobile wheel bearing that extends the flaking life and lubrication life of the automobile wheel bearing and reduces fretting.

本発明のグリースは、自動車車輪軸受におけるフレーキング及び潤滑寿命を有意に延長し、フレッチングを低減することができる。特に円すいころ軸受タイプでのころ端面かじりの抑制等により、１０年、１２０万ｋｍ走行を可能とすることができる。 The grease of the present invention can significantly extend flaking and lubrication life in automobile wheel bearings and reduce fretting. In particular, it is possible to travel for 1,200,000 km for 10 years by suppressing roller end face galling in a tapered roller bearing type.

Of these, a urea-based thickener represented by the formula (1-1) is particularly preferable.
本発明の組成物において、ウレア化合物の含有量は特に制限されないが、基油に対して２〜３５質量％であるのが好ましい。
本発明のウレア系増ちょう剤は、例えばモノアミンをジイソシアネートと１０〜２００℃で反応させることにより得られるが、その反応方法に特に制限は無く、公知の方法により実施することができる。この際に揮発性の溶媒を使用してもよいが、基油を溶媒として使用するとそのまま本発明の組成物に配合することができる。

In the composition of the present invention, the content of the organomolybdenum compound is not particularly limited, but is preferably 0.1 to 10% by mass, and more preferably 1 to 5% by mass.
（ｃ）基油
本発明において用いることの基油は、一般的に、高温安定性および低温流動性に優れる潤滑油として使用されている。基油としては、鉱油、合成油の別なく使用できるが、２０〜５０質量％の合成油と８０〜５０％の鉱油とを含有する混合基油が好ましい。本発明で使用できる合成油としては、例えば１デセンを出発原料とするポリαオレフィン油、α−オレフィンとエチレンとのコオリゴマー油、フェニルエーテル系合成油、エステル系合成油、ポリグリコール系合成油及びシリコーン油など公知の合成油が全て使用可能である。その中で合成油が、炭素と水素の原子だけからなる炭化水素油であるのが特に好ましい。混合基油中の合成油として合成炭化水素油を含有すると、シールに悪影響を及ぼすことがなく、軸受からのの漏えい性が少ないので好ましい。

Among them, it is particularly preferable that the synthetic oil is a hydrocarbon oil consisting only of carbon and hydrogen atoms. It is preferable to contain a synthetic hydrocarbon oil as a synthetic oil in the mixed base oil because it does not adversely affect the seal and has little leakage from the bearing.

The grease compositions of Examples 1 to 4 and Comparative Examples 1 to 2 were prepared by adding the thickener and the organic molybdenum compound shown in Table 1 to the base oil shown in Table 1 and kneading them with three roll mills. The numerical value in a table | surface shows content (%) in a composition. As the thickeners of Examples 1 to 4 and Comparative Example 2, the aromatic urea compound represented by the above formula (1-1) was used. Each composition was blended with 3 wt% antioxidant and 2 wt% rust preventive as optional components. The consistency of the grease composition was measured according to JIS K2220, and all the consistency was 300.

×：２００ｈ未満
The physical properties of these grease compositions were evaluated by the test methods shown below. The obtained results are also shown in Table 1.
<Life (flaking)>
The flaking life in the swiveling life test of the taper roller bearing for large trucks was expressed as the life time.
Test conditions: Fr (radial load) = 62.9 kN,
Fa (axial load) = 25.2 kN,
N (bearing rotation speed) = 400 r / min, tire radius = 517 mm
Evaluation criteria ◎: 700h or more ○: 400h or more and less than 700h △: 200h or more and less than 400h ×: Less than 200h

<Rolling end face of tapered roller bearing>
The roller end face of the turning life tester of the above-mentioned large truck taper roller bearing was observed, and the results were expressed in terms of galling and rough surface of the roller end face.
Test conditions: Same as the above life test Evaluation criteria ◎: No galling, rough surface,
○: Surface roughness △: Slight biting ×: Biting
＜酸化寿命（潤滑寿命）＞
深溝玉軸受の潤滑寿命とし、結果を寿命時間で表した。
試験条件：ＡＳＴＭ Ｄ ３３３６準拠、試験温度１５０℃、

評価基準
◎：２５００ｈ以上
○：１０００ｈ以上２５００ｈ未満
△：２００ｈ以上１０００ｈ未満
×：２００ｈ未満
<Oxidation life (lubrication life)>
The lubrication life of the deep groove ball bearing was taken as the result, and the result was expressed as the life time.
Test conditions: ASTM D 3336 compliant, test temperature 150 ° C.
Rotation speed 10000rpm, load Fa = Fr = 67N
Evaluation criteria ◎: 2500h or more ○: 1000h or more and less than 2500h △: 200h or more and less than 1000h ×: Less than 200h
＜フレッチング＞
Ｆａｆｎｉｒ試験（準拠）におけるフレッチング摩耗とし、結果を摩耗量で表した。
試験条件：ＡＳＴＭ Ｄ ４１７０準拠、試験軸受５１２０４Ｊ、試験時間２ｈ
評価基準
◎：０．５ｍｇ以下
○：０．５ｍｇ超 １．５ｍｇ以下
△：１．５ｍｇ超 ２．５ｍｇ以下
×：２．５ｍｇ超
表１から明らかなように、実施例の自動車車輪軸受用グリース組成物は、比較例の自動車車輪軸受用グリース組成物に比べ、フレーキング寿命及び潤滑寿命ともに向上し、かつフレッチングが低減され、円すいころ軸受のころ端面かじりの低減も抑制された。
<Fretting>
The result was expressed as fretting wear in the Fafnir test (conformity), and the result was expressed as a wear amount.
Test conditions: ASTM D 4170 compliant, test bearing 51204J, test time 2h
Evaluation criteria A: 0.5 mg or less ○: More than 0.5 mg 1.5 mg or less Δ: More than 1.5 mg 2.5 mg or less ×: More than 2.5 mg
As is apparent from Table 1, the grease composition for automobile wheel bearings of the examples has an improved flaking life and lubrication life as compared with the grease composition for automobile wheel bearings of the comparative example, and fretting is reduced, resulting in a cone. Reduction of roller end face galling of the roller bearing was also suppressed.
