【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、ギヤ潤滑用グリース組成物に関し、特にラックとピニオン用として好適なギヤ潤滑用グリース組成物及び該グリース組成物により潤滑されたギヤに関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
電動パワーステアリングは電力を動力源とするため油圧式パワーステアリングに比べて出力が小さく、主に小型車用として普及していた。しかし、環境面への関心や省エネ化が進むにつれ、燃費向上に効果がある電動パワーステアリングは中型車にまで普及し、その需要は年々増加傾向にある。
ステアリングには多くの潤滑箇所があるが、特にラックとピニオン部やピニオンアシストタイプ電動パワーステアリング(EPS)などのギヤ噛み合い部には大きな圧力がかかり摩耗しやすい。また歯形にそった異常摩耗をバックラッシュと言い、異音発生の原因となっている。
ラックとピニオンの潤滑機構は鋼と鋼との転がり滑りである。このような鋼と鋼による転がり滑りの潤滑機構はギヤ潤滑全般にあてはまり、自動車部品に限らず、機械部品等に多く使用されている。また、自動車、電化製品、精密機器などでは長寿命化、高効率化または低温作動性の向上が求められており、グリースに対して更なる低摩擦係数化、耐摩耗特性、低温性の改良が必要となっている。
【0003】
ステアリング駆動方式のその殆どが油圧式であり、従来より、ラックとピニオン用グリースとしては鉱物油を基油とした一般的な極圧グリースが用いられてきた。近年、ピニオンアシストタイプ電動パワーステアリングの増加や中型車への普及によってラックとピニオン歯面にかかる面圧が増大し、今までの極圧グリースでは耐久性・耐摩耗性で満足できるレベルではなくなってきた。
また、電動パワーステアリングは油圧式パワーステアリングと比較して出力が小さく、伝達動力の高効率化が常に求められており、特に低温時の作動トルクが大きく作動不良が発生することから、この低温性についても大きな問題となっていた。
このような問題を解決すべくステアリング用グリース組成物が公開されているがコストが高く必ずしも満足されていない(例えば、特許文献1参照)。

【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明の目的は、ギヤ潤滑用グリース組成物、特にラックとピニオン用として好適なギヤ潤滑用グリース組成物を提供することである。
本発明の他の目的は、ステアリングに求められる過酷な潤滑条件に耐えうる耐摩耗性を有し、かつ低温作動時の作動性に優れた安価なラックとピニオン用として好適なグリース組成物を提供することである。
本発明のさらに他の目的は、上記ギヤ潤滑用グリース組成物により潤滑されたギヤ、特にラックとピニオンを提供することである。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明は以下に示すギヤ潤滑用グリース組成物を提供するものである。
1.下記の成分(a)〜(e)を含むギヤ潤滑用グリース組成物。
(a)増ちょう剤
(b)合成油
(c)鉱油
(d)モリブデンジチオカーバメート(MoDTC)
(e)Caスルホネート
2.(e)成分が過塩基性Caスルホネートである上記1記載のギヤ潤滑用グリース組成物。
3.(b)成分が合成炭化水素油である上記1又は2記載のギヤ潤滑用グリース組成物。
4.(a)成分がLiヒドロキシステアレートである上記1〜3のいずれか1項記載のギヤ潤滑用グリース組成物。

7.上記1〜6のいずれか1項記載のギヤ潤滑用グリース組成物により潤滑されたギヤ。
8.ラックとピニオンである上記7記載のギヤ。
【0007】
【発明の実施の形態】
MoDTCとCaスルホネートの組み合わせを含むグリース組成物は等速ジョイント(CVJ)用として使用されており、その摩擦低減効果、耐摩耗特性は周知の事実である。しかし、MoDTCとCaスルホネートの組み合わせを含むグリース組成物をラックとピニオン用として使用された例はなく、従って、その摩擦低減効果、耐摩耗特性を示したという報告もない。
【0008】
本発明のグリース組成物に使用する成分(a)の増ちょう剤としては、全ての増ちょう剤が使用可能である。例えば、Li石けんや複合Li石けんに代表される石けん系増ちょう剤、ジウレアに代表されるウレア系増ちょう剤、有機化クレイやシリカに代表される無機系増ちょう剤、PTFEに代表される有機系増ちょう剤などが挙げられるが、好ましいものはLi石けんであり、具体的にはLiヒドロキシステアレートである。
本発明のグリース組成物中の増ちょう剤の量は好ましくは1〜25質量%、さらに好ましくは3〜20質量%である。1質量%未満では増ちょう剤効果が小さく、軟らかすぎて潤滑部からの漏えいが問題となる。また25質量%を超えるとグリース組成物が硬くなりすぎ、潤滑部への流入が無くなり充分な効果を得るのが困難になる。
【0009】
本発明のグリース組成物中、成分(b)の合成油としては、エステル油、合成炭化水素油、フェニルエーテル、ポリグリコールなど通常グリースの基油として使用されている潤滑油が使用できる。これらのうち特に好ましいものは合成炭化水素油(ポリαオレフィン)である。
本発明のグリース組成物中の合成油の量は好ましくは10〜60質量%、さらに好ましくは30〜40質量%である。10質量%未満では被潤滑部材の低温作動性が悪くなる傾向があり、また60質量%を超えるとコストアップとなり経済的に不利である。
【0010】
本発明のグリース組成物中、成分(c)の鉱油としては全ての鉱油が使用できる。例えば、精製鉱油、高粘度指数油、脱ロウ鉱油などが挙げられる。特に好ましいものは脱ロウ鉱油である。
本発明のグリース組成物中の鉱油の量は好ましくは30〜80質量%、さらに好ましくは50〜60質量%である。30質量%未満ではコストアップが問題となり、また80質量%を超えると被潤滑部材の低温作動性が悪くなる傾向がある。
【0011】
本発明のグリース組成物中、成分(d)のMoDTC(モリブデンジチオカーバメート)の好ましい例としては下記の式(1)で表されるものが挙げられる。
(R12N−CS−S)2−Mo2OmSn (1)
(式中、R1およびR2は、それぞれ独立して、炭素原子数1〜24、好ましくは3〜18のアルキル基を表し、mは0〜3、nは4〜1であり、m+n=4である)
本発明のグリース組成物中のMoDTCの量は好ましくは0.1〜10質量%、さらに好ましくは0.5〜5質量%である。0.1質量%未満では磨耗低減効果が不充分であり、また10質量%を超えてもさらなる効果の向上は認められない。
【0012】
本発明のグリース組成物に使用される成分(e)のCaスルホネートとしては、エンジン油等の潤滑油に用いられる金属系清浄分散剤や防錆剤として使用される全てのCaスルホネートが使用できる。例えば、潤滑油留分中の芳香族炭化水素成分のスルホン化によって得られる石油スルホン酸のカルシウム塩、ジノニルナフタレンスルホン酸やアルキルベンゼンスルホン酸のような合成スルホン酸のカルシウム塩、石油スルホン酸の過塩基性カルシウム塩、アルキル芳香族スルホン酸の過塩基性カルシウム塩などが挙げられ、好ましいものとしては過塩基性Caスルホネートが挙げられる。
本発明のグリース組成物中のCaスルホネートの量は好ましくは0.1〜10質量%、さらに好ましくは0.5〜5質量%である。0.1質量%未満では磨耗低減効果が不充分であり、また10質量%を超えてもさらなる効果の向上は認められない。
【0013】
本発明のグリース組成物中、成分(d)のMoDTCと成分(e)のCaスルホネートの合計量は好ましくは0.2〜10質量%、さらに好ましくは1〜10質量%である。0.2質量%未満では磨耗低減効果が不充分であり、また10質量%を超えてもさらなる効果の向上は認められない。
【0014】
本発明のグリース組成物には必要に応じて種々の添加剤を添加することができる。このような添加剤としては、例えば、酸化防止剤、錆止め剤、金属腐食防止剤、油性剤、耐摩耗剤、極圧剤、固体潤滑剤等が挙げられる。
本発明のグリース組成物は、上記各成分及びその他の添加剤を所望の配合割合で混合することにより容易に製造することができる。
【0015】
本発明のグリース組成物は、種々の部品の潤滑に使用できるが、ギヤの潤滑に最も適しており、特にラックとピニオン用の潤滑に適している。ラックとピニオンの構成材料は共に鋼で、ラックとピニオンの接触形態は線接触である。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a grease composition for gear lubrication, and more particularly to a grease composition for gear lubrication suitable for racks and pinions and a gear lubricated with the grease composition.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Since electric power steering uses electric power as a power source, its output is smaller than that of hydraulic power steering, and is mainly used for small cars. However, as environmental concerns and energy savings progress, electric power steering, which is effective in improving fuel efficiency, has spread to medium-sized vehicles, and its demand is increasing year by year.
There are many lubrication points in the steering, but particularly gears such as a rack and pinion part and a pinion assist type electric power steering (EPS) are subject to great pressure and are easily worn. Abnormal wear along the tooth profile is called backlash and causes abnormal noise.
The lubrication mechanism of rack and pinion is rolling slip between steel. Such a rolling lubrication mechanism using steel and steel applies to gear lubrication in general and is used not only for automobile parts but also for machine parts and the like. In addition, automobiles, electrical appliances, precision equipment, etc. are required to have a longer service life, higher efficiency, or improved low-temperature operability. It is necessary.
[0003]
Most of the steering drive systems are hydraulic. Conventionally, as a grease for racks and pinions, a general extreme pressure grease based on mineral oil has been used. In recent years, the surface pressure applied to the rack and pinion tooth surfaces has increased due to the increase in pinion assist type electric power steering and the spread to medium-sized vehicles, and conventional extreme pressure greases are no longer satisfactory in terms of durability and wear resistance. It was.
Electric power steering has a lower output than hydraulic power steering, and there is always a need for higher transmission power efficiency. It was also a big problem.
In order to solve such problems, a grease composition for steering is disclosed, but the cost is high and it is not always satisfied (for example, see Patent Document 1).

[0005]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
An object of the present invention is to provide a grease composition for gear lubrication, particularly a grease composition for gear lubrication suitable for racks and pinions.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a grease composition suitable for use in an inexpensive rack and pinion having wear resistance capable of withstanding the severe lubrication conditions required for steering and excellent in operability at low temperature operation. It is to be.
Still another object of the present invention is to provide a gear, particularly a rack and a pinion, lubricated with the above-mentioned gear lubricating grease composition.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The present invention provides the following grease composition for gear lubrication.
1. A grease composition for gear lubrication comprising the following components (a) to (e):
(A) Thickener (b) Synthetic oil (c) Mineral oil (d) Molybdenum dithiocarbamate (MoDTC)
(E) Ca sulfonate 2. (E) The grease composition for gear lubrication according to 1 above, wherein the component is an overbased Ca sulfonate.
3. (B) The grease composition for gear lubrication according to the above 1 or 2, wherein the component is a synthetic hydrocarbon oil.
4). 4. The grease composition for gear lubrication according to any one of 1 to 3 above, wherein the component (a) is Li hydroxy stearate.
5. (D) Grease composition for gear lubrication of any one of said 1-4 whose content of component is 0.1-10 mass% and whose content of (e) component is 0.1-10 mass%. .
6). 6. The grease composition for gear lubrication according to any one of 1 to 5 above, which is used for racks and pinions.
7). The gear lubricated with the grease composition for gear lubrication of any one of said 1-6.
8). The gear according to the above 7, which is a rack and a pinion.
[0007]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
A grease composition containing a combination of MoDTC and Ca sulfonate is used for a constant velocity joint (CVJ), and its friction reducing effect and wear resistance are well known facts. However, there is no example in which a grease composition containing a combination of MoDTC and Ca sulfonate is used for racks and pinions, and therefore, there is no report that the friction reducing effect and wear resistance are exhibited.
[0008]
As the thickener of component (a) used in the grease composition of the present invention, all thickeners can be used. For example, soap thickeners represented by Li soap and composite Li soap, urea thickeners represented by diurea, inorganic thickeners represented by organic clay and silica, and organic materials represented by PTFE. Examples of the thickener include Li soap, and specifically Li hydroxy stearate.
The amount of thickener in the grease composition of the present invention is preferably 1 to 25% by mass, more preferably 3 to 20% by mass. If it is less than 1% by mass, the thickener effect is small, and it is too soft to cause leakage from the lubrication part. On the other hand, if it exceeds 25% by mass, the grease composition becomes too hard, and there is no flow into the lubrication part, making it difficult to obtain a sufficient effect.
[0009]
In the grease composition of the present invention, as the synthetic oil of component (b), a lubricating oil usually used as a base oil for grease such as ester oil, synthetic hydrocarbon oil, phenyl ether, polyglycol and the like can be used. Of these, synthetic hydrocarbon oils (polyalphaolefins) are particularly preferred.
The amount of the synthetic oil in the grease composition of the present invention is preferably 10 to 60% by mass, more preferably 30 to 40% by mass. If it is less than 10% by mass, the low temperature operability of the member to be lubricated tends to deteriorate, and if it exceeds 60% by mass, the cost increases, which is economically disadvantageous.
[0010]
In the grease composition of the present invention, all mineral oils can be used as the mineral oil of component (c). For example, refined mineral oil, high viscosity index oil, dewaxed mineral oil and the like can be mentioned. Particularly preferred is dewaxed mineral oil.
The amount of mineral oil in the grease composition of the present invention is preferably 30 to 80% by mass, more preferably 50 to 60% by mass. If the amount is less than 30% by mass, the cost increases, and if it exceeds 80% by mass, the low temperature operability of the lubricated member tends to deteriorate.
[0011]
In the grease composition of the present invention, preferred examples of the component (d) MoDTC (molybdenum dithiocarbamate) include those represented by the following formula (1).
(R 1 R 2 N-CS -S) 2 -Mo 2 OmSn (1)
(Wherein R 1 and R 2 each independently represents an alkyl group having 1 to 24 carbon atoms, preferably 3 to 18 carbon atoms, m is 0 to 3, n is 4 to 1, and m + n = 4)
The amount of MoDTC in the grease composition of the present invention is preferably 0.1 to 10% by mass, more preferably 0.5 to 5% by mass. If it is less than 0.1% by mass, the effect of reducing wear is insufficient, and if it exceeds 10% by mass, no further improvement in effect is observed.
[0012]
As the Ca sulfonate of the component (e) used in the grease composition of the present invention, all Ca sulfonates used as metal detergents and rust inhibitors used in lubricating oils such as engine oils can be used. For example, calcium salts of petroleum sulfonic acids obtained by sulfonation of aromatic hydrocarbon components in lubricating oil fractions, calcium salts of synthetic sulfonic acids such as dinonylnaphthalene sulfonic acid and alkylbenzene sulfonic acid, Examples include basic calcium salts and overbased calcium salts of alkyl aromatic sulfonic acids, and preferable examples include overbased Ca sulfonates.
The amount of Ca sulfonate in the grease composition of the present invention is preferably 0.1 to 10% by mass, more preferably 0.5 to 5% by mass. If it is less than 0.1% by mass, the effect of reducing wear is insufficient, and if it exceeds 10% by mass, no further improvement in effect is observed.
[0013]
In the grease composition of the present invention, the total amount of MoDTC of component (d) and Ca sulfonate of component (e) is preferably 0.2 to 10% by mass, more preferably 1 to 10% by mass. If it is less than 0.2% by mass, the effect of reducing wear is insufficient, and if it exceeds 10% by mass, no further improvement in the effect is recognized.
[0014]
Various additives can be added to the grease composition of the present invention as necessary. Examples of such additives include antioxidants, rust inhibitors, metal corrosion inhibitors, oiliness agents, antiwear agents, extreme pressure agents, solid lubricants, and the like.
The grease composition of the present invention can be easily produced by mixing the above components and other additives in a desired blending ratio.
[0015]
The grease composition of the present invention can be used for lubricating various parts, but is most suitable for gear lubrication, and particularly suitable for rack and pinion lubrication. The constituent materials of the rack and pinion are both steel, and the contact form of the rack and pinion is line contact.
