Description

  The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing an engine mount in which a power unit such as a vehicle is supported in a vibration-proof manner on a support member such as a frame.

  Conventionally, a power unit such as an automobile is supported in an anti-vibration manner via an engine mount on a support member such as a body frame. The engine mount is generally attached to each of the power unit and the support member as disclosed in, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 10-281225 (Patent Document 1) and Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2009-036295 (Patent Document 2). The first mounting bracket and the second mounting bracket are elastically connected by a rubber elastic body.

  The engine mount is configured such that the first mounting bracket and the second mounting bracket are fastened and fixed to each one of the power unit and the supporting member using a fixing bolt, so that the power unit and the supporting member It is installed between.

  By the way, the antirust coating is given to the surface for the purpose of prevention of the fall of the member durability by oxidation, etc. on the 1st and 2nd mounting brackets etc. which comprise an engine mount.

  However, if the rust-prevention coating film is thickened to obtain the required rust-prevention performance, it will be protected when exposed to high temperatures due to heat transfer from the engine under the condition that the fastening bolts are tightened. There was a risk that the rust coating film would sag and the fastening force of the fixing bolt would be reduced. Although it may be possible to reduce the amount of sag by adopting a rust-preventing paint having high rust-preventing performance, the material cost is not practical.

  Therefore, the present inventor has provided a hard resin layer as a base layer capable of suppressing the amount of heat sag as compared with the generally used epoxy resin-based anticorrosive paint, and formed a two-layer coating film on the surface of the metal fitting. To consider newly. In such a two-layer coating film, the overall amount of heat sag can be suppressed by thinning the epoxy resin-based anticorrosion paint, and accompanying the thinning of the epoxy resin-based anticorrosion paint It was thought that there was a possibility that the rust prevention performance could be ensured as a whole by compensating for the decrease in the rust prevention performance with the hard resin layer.

  However, in order to form a coating film having a two-layer structure on the surface of the metal fitting, two or more coating steps are required, and when a thermosetting resin material having high thermal stability is adopted as the base layer, heat curing is performed. Since a process is also required, there is a problem that the number of manufacturing processes increases and the work load and manufacturing cost also increase.

JP-A-10-281225 JP 2009-036295 A

  The present invention has been made in the background of the above-mentioned circumstances, and the problem to be solved is to simply manufacture an engine mount having a novel structure in which a coating film having a two-layer structure as described above is provided on the surface of a metal fitting. It is an object of the present invention to provide a novel method for manufacturing an engine mount that can be efficiently manufactured with a small labor load.

  According to a first aspect of the present invention, in the method of manufacturing an engine mount, wherein the first mounting bracket and the second mounting bracket are connected by a main rubber elastic body, and the power unit is supported in a vibration-proof manner with respect to the support member. A phenol resin adhesive is applied to the adhesive surface of the main rubber elastic body in the first mounting bracket and the second mounting metal, and the adhesive surface of the main rubber elastic body is removed from the second mounting bracket. A first adhesive application step of applying the phenolic resin-based adhesive to the surface of a fastening part that is positioned and fastened to the power unit or the support member, and the first attachment fitting and the second attachment A second adhesive applying step of applying a chlorinated rubber-based adhesive to the adhesive surface of the main rubber elastic body to which the phenolic resin-based adhesive is applied in a metal fitting; and adding the main rubber elastic body Molding is performed to obtain an integrally vulcanized molded product in which the first mounting bracket and the second mounting bracket are vulcanized and bonded, and at the same time, the phenol resin adhesive applied to the fastening portion is heated and cured. Including a vulcanization forming step and a laminating and applying step of applying an epoxy resin-based anticorrosive paint to the surface of the fastening portion to which the phenolic resin-based adhesive is applied in the second mounting bracket. Features.

  According to the manufacturing method of this embodiment, the adhesive has a strong adhesion to a metal such as iron and has a high hardness after curing as compared with a rust-proof paint, and a sag when exposed to a high temperature of 80 ° C. or higher. A coating layer of a two-layer structure in which a base layer made of a cured resin of a small phenolic resin adhesive is combined with a rust preventive paint as a surface layer is formed on the surface of the fastening portion of the first mounting bracket. Become. And, such a base layer supplements the rust prevention performance exhibited by the surface layer made of the rust prevention paint, so that the film thickness of the rust prevention paint is kept small while ensuring the rust prevention performance, which is likely to cause a problem with the rust prevention paint. It is possible to stabilize the tightening force of the fixing bolt by suppressing the amount of sag due to heat. Note that the surface of the fastening portion to which the coating film is applied only needs to include a surface on which the fastening force for fixing to the power unit side or the support member side by the fixing bolt or the like is exerted on the second mounting bracket. .

  Here, in the manufacturing method of this aspect, the vulcanized adhesive of the main rubber elastic body in the first mounting bracket is commonly used as the phenol resin-based adhesive that forms the base layer of the fastening portion. It becomes possible to perform the application | coating operation | work to to easily and efficiently. Moreover, in the method of the present invention, since the curing treatment of the phenol resin adhesive applied to the fastening portion is performed simultaneously with the vulcanization molding of the main rubber elastic body, no special heat curing treatment is required, and the work process Can be reduced and the manufacturing cycle can be improved.

  According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the engine mount manufacturing method according to the first aspect, the phenolic resin adhesive is heat-cured on the base layer by performing the lamination coating step after the vulcanization molding step. On the other hand, the surface layer which consists of the said epoxy resin type antirust coating is laminated | stacked.

  According to the manufacturing method of this aspect, the epoxy resin-based anticorrosive coating is not adversely affected by heating in the vulcanization step of the main rubber elastic body.

  According to a third aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method for manufacturing an engine mount according to the first or second aspect. In the first adhesive application step and the lamination application step, the phenol resin-based adhesive is used. The cured resin base layer has a thickness Ta of 5 μm or more, and the surface layer thickness Tb of the epoxy resin-based anticorrosive paint is less than 15 μm, and 15 μm ≦ (Ta + Tb) ≦ 30 μm A phenol resin adhesive and an epoxy resin rust preventive paint are applied respectively.

  According to the manufacturing method of this aspect, a relatively inexpensive phenolic resin-based adhesive and epoxy resin-based anticorrosive paint, which are widely distributed and commonly used in the market, are respectively employed to prevent rust prevention of the metal fittings. It becomes possible to secure a higher level of both performance and heat-resisting sag performance of the coating film.

  When a commonly used phenolic resin-based adhesive and epoxy resin-based anticorrosion paint are employed, the thickness Ta of the cured resin base layer made of phenolic resin-based adhesive is 5 μm or more. By doing so, it is possible to sufficiently obtain the auxiliary effect of rust prevention performance by the base layer, and as a result, it becomes possible to suppress the film thickness of the surface layer. Further, by suppressing the film thickness of the surface layer made of the epoxy resin-based anticorrosive paint to less than 15 μm, it is possible to effectively suppress the sag of the coating film when exposed to a high temperature. Accordingly, a decrease in the fastening bolt tightening force due to the coating sag can be effectively suppressed, and both antirust performance and stable maintenance of the fastening bolt fastening force can be achieved. . If the total film thickness (Ta + Tb) is less than 15 μm, sufficient anti-corrosion performance is difficult to be exhibited. On the other hand, if the total film thickness (Ta + Tb) exceeds 30 μm, long-term securing of the amount of sag due to heat, etc. May be a problem.

  According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, there is provided the engine mount manufacturing method according to the third aspect, wherein the base layer thickness Ta and the surface layer thickness Tb satisfy Tb ≦ Ta in the lamination coating step. The epoxy resin-based anticorrosive paint is applied to the above.

  According to the manufacturing method of this aspect, by setting the film thickness Ta of the base layer and the film thickness Tb of the surface layer within the above ranges, it is possible to further improve the compatibility between the antirust performance and the stable maintenance of the fastening force of the fixing bolt. Can be achieved. If the surface thickness Tb is larger than the thickness Ta of the base layer, it is difficult to secure the tightening force of the fixing bolt for a long period of time when securing the rust prevention performance. This is because it may be difficult to achieve both.

  According to a fifth aspect of the present invention, there is provided an engine mount manufacturing method according to the third or fourth aspect, wherein, in the lamination coating step, the epoxy resin system is used so that the film thickness Tb of the surface layer is 5 μm or more. A rust preventive paint is applied.

  According to the manufacturing method of this aspect, it becomes possible to obtain better rust prevention performance while suppressing the total film thickness.

  According to a sixth aspect of the present invention, in the method for manufacturing an engine mount according to any one of the first to fifth aspects, the second mounting bracket is attached to the power unit side, The first mounting bracket is adapted to be attached to the support member side.

  According to the manufacturing method of this embodiment, the two-layered coating film according to the present invention as described above can be employed particularly in the tightening portion of the fixing bolt that is easily exposed to high temperature due to heat transfer from the power unit. As a result, it is possible to effectively prevent loosening of the tightening bolt while ensuring rust prevention performance, and to improve the performance and reliability of the vibration isolation support structure through the engine mount by the support member of the power unit.

  According to the method of the present invention, at the fastening portion of the first mounting bracket in the target engine mount, the coating film of the rust preventive paint is used as a surface layer, and is harder than the rust preventive paint and is firmly fixed to the bracket. It is possible to efficiently form a coating film having a two-layer structure including a base layer made of an adhesive with a simple manufacturing process and a small labor load.

  In the engine mount manufactured according to the method of the present invention, the anticorrosion performance on the surface layer where there is a concern about heat sag is assisted by the hard base layer, so that the entire coating film having a two-layer structure has one layer of anti-rust. Compared to the case of only a rust coating film, it is possible to achieve both good rust prevention performance and heat resistance, and it is possible to ensure a large degree of design freedom for required characteristics.

  The thickness Ta of the base layer is preferably 5 μm ≦ Ta, more preferably 10 μm ≦ Ta ≦ 25 μm, and even more preferably 15 μm ≦ Ta ≦ 20 μm. On the other hand, the film thickness Tb of the surface layer is preferably set to Tb <15 μm, more preferably 5 μm ≦ Tb <15 μm, and further preferably 5 μm ≦ Tb ≦ 10 μm. Even if the requirement of 15 μm ≦ (Ta + Tb) ≦ 30 μm is satisfied, if the thickness Ta of the base layer is smaller than 5 μm, sufficient rust prevention performance may not be obtained, while the thickness Tb of the surface layer is This is because if the thickness is 15 μm or more, the amount of sag increases and the bolt loosening prevention effect may not be sufficiently obtained.

  The engine mount 10 of the present embodiment is configured by providing the coating films 72 and 72 on the surfaces of the second mounting portions 62 and 62 of the second mounting bracket 18.

Also, a pair of reinforcing members 66, 66 having the above-described shape are prepared by bending a metal flat plate having a predetermined shape. Then, the lower surface of the central connecting plate portion 54 of the fastening bracket 52 is overlapped with the upper surface of the support plate portion 46 of the fixing bracket 44, and the reinforcing members 66 and 66 are placed on the upper surfaces of the second inclined plate portions 48 and 48.

That is, in this embodiment, as shown by the thick black line in FIG. 7, the left and right end portions on the upper surface of the first mounting bracket 14, the lower surface of the fixing bracket 44 in the second mounting bracket 18, and the central connection A phenol resin adhesive is applied over the upper surface of the plate portion 54 and the inner peripheral surfaces (not shown) of the insertion holes 50 and 56. Further, as indicated by a thick black line, the phenol resin adhesive is applied to the surfaces of the second mounting portions 62 and 62 that are fastening surfaces of the second mounting bracket 18 and the power unit 16. . The film thickness Ta of the phenol resin adhesive is preferably set within the aforementioned range. The phenol resin adhesive may be applied by spraying or by brushing or dipping. In addition, the adhesive can be efficiently applied by performing a masking process or the like on the surface on which the phenol resin adhesive is not applied.

The material for the support rubber elastic bodies 20 and 20 is injected into the mold cavity, and the support rubber elastic bodies 20 and 20 are vulcanized. Thus, an integrally vulcanized molded product in which the first mounting bracket 14 and the second mounting bracket 18 are vulcanized and bonded is obtained. Simultaneously with the vulcanization molding of the support rubber elastic bodies 20 and 20, the heat applied during vulcanization is used to heat and cure the phenol resin adhesive applied in the first adhesive application step. To do.

  In addition, although the heating conditions at the time of vulcanization molding can be adjusted according to a rubber material etc., the heat processing for 5 to 20 minutes are performed at 150-180 degreeC, for example.

  After such a vulcanization molding step, an epoxy resin-based anticorrosive paint is applied to the surfaces of the second mounting portions 62 and 62 that have been applied with a phenol resin adhesive and heat-cured. The film thickness Tb of the epoxy resin-based anticorrosive paint is preferably set within the above-mentioned range. By applying and drying the rust preventive paint, as shown in gray in FIG. 8, a phenol resin adhesive is used as a base layer made of a cured resin on the surface of the second mounting portions 62 and 62. The coating films 72 and 72 having a laminated structure with an epoxy resin-based anticorrosive paint as a surface layer are formed. The application of the epoxy resin-based anticorrosion paint can also be carried out by spraying or the like, and a masking treatment or the like is performed as necessary.

  After the lamination coating process, the stopper bolt 32 is inserted through the insertion hole 50, 56 and the bolt hole 26 of the integrally vulcanized molded product to which the coating films 72, 72 are applied, via the spacer sleeve 36 and the stopper plate 38. Then, the engine mount 10 of this embodiment is manufactured by fastening with the nut 34 and covering the tip of the stopper bolt 32 with the cap 42.

  In the engine mount 10 of the present embodiment manufactured by the manufacturing method as described above, a phenol resin adhesive is applied as a base layer of a cured resin on the bolt fastening surfaces of the power unit 16 and the second mounting portions 62 and 62. In addition, an epoxy resin-based anticorrosive paint is applied as a surface layer to the surface of the base layer. And, by adopting the manufacturing method as described above, the coating film having a two-layer structure can be formed with fewer processes and labor compared to, for example, a method in which each layer is separately formed and sequentially fixed. The manufacturing efficiency of the mount can be improved.

  In particular, by using the heat at the time of vulcanization molding of the support rubber elastic bodies 20 and 20 as the heat required for the heat curing of the phenol resin adhesive, the heat curing of the phenol resin adhesive and the support rubber elastic body are performed. 20 and 20 can be simultaneously vulcanized and the production efficiency can be further improved.

  In the present embodiment, since the epoxy resin-based anticorrosion paint is laminated after the phenol resin-based adhesive is cured and the support rubber elastic bodies 20 and 20 are vulcanized, No heat is applied and no special anti-corrosion paint such as a heat resistant paint is required.

  Furthermore, in this embodiment, the thickness Ta of the cured resin base layer made of a phenol resin adhesive and the surface thickness Tb of the epoxy resin rust preventive paint are set within predetermined numerical ranges, respectively. Accordingly, the film thickness Tb of the rust preventive paint can be suppressed smaller than before, and the amount of sag due to heat can be reduced. Thereby, the possibility that the fastening force of the fixing bolt on the bolt fastening surface may be reduced. On the other hand, by providing a phenolic resin-based adhesive as the base layer, the base layer and the surface layer can work together to exert a rust-preventing effect. The effect can be maintained, and both the bolt tightening force reduction preventing effect and the rust preventing effect can be realized.

  Furthermore, in this embodiment, since the coating films 72 and 72 are applied to the bolt fastening surfaces of the power unit 16 and the second mounting brackets 62 and 62 that are likely to be hotter, the heat-resistant rust-preventive paint is applied. Can be more effectively suppressed, and this can further reduce the possibility that the bolt tightening force on the bolt fastening surface will be reduced.

[Example]
As an example of the present invention, an evaluation test of the bolt tightening force was performed using the engine mount 10 having the structure according to the embodiment. In this evaluation test, as shown in FIG. 1, the first mounting bracket 14 is overlapped on the base member corresponding to the vehicle body 12 and tightened with a fixing bolt inserted through the first fastening hole 28. On the other hand, the second mounting bracket 18 was superposed on the vibration member corresponding to the power unit 16 and fastened with a fixing bolt inserted into the second fastening hole 64. All the fixing bolts had an initial fastening torque of 37.6 (N · m).

  The engine mount 10 in such a setting state is subjected to an exciting force in an up-down direction, which is an opposing direction, between the first mounting bracket 14 and the second mounting bracket 18 by the vibration member at an ambient temperature of approximately 100 ° C. As a result, an excitation force of (sharing support load to the engine mount in a state where the power unit is supported) ± 5000 N was performed 1000 times at a frequency of 2 Hz.

  In addition, in an Example, as the surface coating film of the 1st and 2nd mounting brackets 14 and 18, the film thickness Ta of the phenol resin adhesive is approximately 20 μm on one surface, and the epoxy resin rust preventive paint is used. A film having a thickness Tb of approximately 10 μm was used on both sides.

  In addition, as a comparative example, an engine mount that employs only a rust preventive paint according to a conventional structure and a coating on both sides of the first and second mounting brackets 14 and 18 with a film thickness of about 30 μm on one side. (Comparative Example 1) and an engine mount (Comparative Example 2) that employs the first and second mounting brackets 14 and 18 that are not provided with a coating film, respectively, under the same conditions as in the examples. Carried out.

  After the vibration test, the residual torque of each fixing bolt and the amount of sag of the coating film at the tightening site with the fixing bolt were measured. The amount of coating sag was measured at the site where the fixing bolt was removed. The measurement results are shown in FIG. 9 for this example and the comparative example.

  In addition, “Chemok205” manufactured by Lord Corporation was adopted as the phenol resin forming the adhesive layer in the examples. Moreover, as an epoxy resin which forms a rust preventive paint layer, in both Example and Comparative Example 1, “TMA Super Black EXD” manufactured by Dainippon Paint Co., Ltd. was adopted.

  From the measurement results shown in FIG. 9, two layers of a phenol resin adhesive and an epoxy resin rust preventive paint are produced according to the method of the present invention as compared with Comparative Example 1 having a conventional structure in which only the rust preventive paint is applied. In the example in which the coating film having the structure was formed, the amount of coating sag was remarkably reduced, and a residual torque comparable to that of Comparative Example 2 in which no rust prevention coating was applied was obtained. It is recognized that

  As mentioned above, although embodiment and the Example of this invention have been explained in full detail, this invention is not limited by the specific description. For example, in the said embodiment, although the coating films 72 and 72 were formed in the surface of the 2nd attaching parts 62 and 62 which are the bolt fastening surfaces of the power unit 16 and the 2nd attachment bracket 18, A coating film may be formed on the surface of the first mounting portion 22 that is a bolt fastening surface with the first mounting bracket 14. In addition, the coating film 72 having a two-layer structure according to the present invention does not need to be formed on the entire fastening surface of the fixing bolt in the first or second mounting portion 22, 62, and at least in a region where a fastening force is exerted. It only has to be formed.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, the coating film 72 which consists of a phenol resin-type adhesive agent of predetermined thickness and an epoxy resin-type rust preventive coating is employ | adopted, and ensuring both a bolt loosening prevention effect and a rust prevention effect simultaneously. However, the film thickness dimensions of the base layer and the surface layer are not limited. That is, the method of the present invention provides a process for producing an engine mount capable of efficiently forming a coating film 72 having a two-layer structure capable of ensuring both a bolt loosening prevention effect and a rust prevention effect. Each film thickness dimension of the surface layer can be appropriately set according to required characteristics and the like, and is not limited as long as it does not depart from the spirit of the method of the present invention.

  Furthermore, the shapes of the first mounting bracket 14 and the second mounting bracket 18 shown in the embodiment are merely examples, and are not limited in any way. That is, the specific shapes and structures of the first and second mounting brackets 14 and 18 can be changed as appropriate. For example, the first and second brackets that have been conventionally employed as necessary are included. The mounting brackets 14 and 18 may be configured.
