There is a disclosure of a sintered alloy having a composition of 0% Cr, 3 to 20% Cr, 1 to 10% CO, and the remainder substantially Fe. This sintered alloy still has insufficient improvement in corrosion resistance and attack resistance, and improvements in this respect have been desired.

とを特徴とする。[Means for Solving the Problems] The valve train member of the internal combustion engine of the present invention has a composition after reduction in weight ratio of C: 1 to 4%, Mo: 10 to 40%, and Cr:
3-20%, N+: 1-10%, and Nb: 0.05
-1%, W: 0.3-5%, ■: 0.1-3%, the balance is substantially Fe (iron), and the fine particles containing each of the metal elements mentioned above. It is characterized by being a metal sintered body formed by molding and sintering an alloy powder produced by mixing graphite powder with a mixed powder containing metal oxide powder and reducing the mixture.
本発明の金属焼結体を構成する合金粉末の組成について
説明する。The composition of the alloy powder constituting the metal sintered body of the present invention will be explained.
MOはCと反応して炭化物を形成し耐摩耗性を向上する
とともに、一部が基地組織中に固溶して基地組織を強化
することから有用であるが、含有量が10%未満では形
成される炭化物の邑が少ないため耐摩耗性の向上が充分
でなく基地組織の強度も不充分であることから動弁系部
材自身の摩耗が多くなり、また40%を越えると組織中
の炭化物量が過多となり靭性が大幅に低下して、摺動す
る相手材に対する損傷性を増大させることから10〜4
0%用いる。MO is useful because it reacts with C to form carbides and improve wear resistance, and a portion of it is solidly dissolved in the base structure to strengthen the base structure, but if the content is less than 10%, it will not form. Since the amount of carbide formed is small, the wear resistance is not sufficiently improved, and the strength of the base structure is also insufficient, which increases the wear of the valve train parts themselves.If the amount exceeds 40%, the amount of carbide in the structure increases. 10 to 4 because if there is an excessive amount of
Use 0%.
また、OrはMOと同様にCと反応して炭化物を形成し
耐摩耗性を向上させるとともに、一部が基地組織中に固
溶して基地組織の強度を高めるとともに耐蝕性を向上さ

成量が極めて僅かであるため耐摩耗性、耐蝕性が充分で
なく、一方、20%を越えると形成される炭化物量が過
多となって摺動する相手材に対する損傷性を増大すると
ともに、靭性を大幅に低下することから3〜20%最用
いる。In addition, like MO, Or reacts with C to form carbides to improve wear resistance, and a portion of Or is solidly dissolved in the base structure to increase the strength of the base structure and improve corrosion resistance. Although it is effective, if it is less than 3%, the amount of carbide formed in the structure is extremely small and the wear resistance and corrosion resistance are insufficient.On the other hand, if it exceeds 20%, the amount of carbide formed is excessive and it is difficult to wear. It increases the damage to moving mating materials and significantly reduces toughness, so it is used at a maximum of 3 to 20%.
また、Cは基地組織を強化するとともに1ylo。In addition, C strengthens the base organization and 1ylo.
Cr ’=と反応してM@C,M7C3、M23G@、
M2C型の炭化物を形成し耐摩耗性を向上させるのに有
効であるが、1%未満では析出する炭化物量が少ないこ

溶する前記MO,Crが不足して、耐摩耗性、耐蝕性を
低下させることから1〜4%墳用いる。Reacts with Cr'= to form M@C, M7C3, M23G@,
It is effective in forming M2C type carbides and improving wear resistance, but if it is less than 1%, the amount of precipitated carbide is small, so the above effect is not sufficient, and if it exceeds 4%, the M2C type carbide is effective in improving wear resistance.
Since most of O1Cr forms carbides and the MO and Cr dissolved in solid solution in the base structure become insufficient, the abrasion resistance and corrosion resistance are lowered, so 1 to 4% of O1Cr is used.
またNiは基地組織中に固溶して基地組織を強化するの
で有効であるが、1%未満ではその効果が充分でなく、
10%を越えるとかえって強度を低下させることから1
〜10%階用いる。In addition, Ni is effective because it dissolves in the base structure and strengthens the base structure, but if it is less than 1%, the effect is not sufficient.
If it exceeds 10%, the strength will actually decrease, so 1.
~10% floor is used.
さらにW、V、Nbは、いずれもCと反応して硬質の微
細化した炭化物を形成して耐摩耗性を改善するのに有効
であるが、Wは0.3%未満、■は0.1%未満、Nb

の効果が充分でなく、Wは5%、■は3%、Nbは1%
を越えると析出炭化物倒が過多となって摺動する相手材
に対する損傷性を増大することがらWは0.3〜5%、
■は0.1〜3%、Nbは0.05〜1%ffi用イル
。Furthermore, W, V, and Nb all react with C to form hard fine carbides and are effective in improving wear resistance, but W is less than 0.3%, and ■ is 0.3%. Less than 1%, Nb
If it is less than 0.05%, the effect is not sufficient because the amount of precipitated carbide is small, W is 5%, ■ is 3%, and Nb is 1%.
W is 0.3 to 5%;
(2) is 0.1 to 3%, and Nb is 0.05 to 1% for ffi.
前記NiおよびW1■、Nbの少なくとも一種を用いる
ことにより、この焼結合金より得た部材は耐摩耗性の向
上とともに、相手材の損傷性を向上させることができた
。By using at least one of the above-mentioned Ni, W1, and Nb, the member obtained from this sintered alloy was able to improve the wear resistance and damage resistance of the mating material.
前記各金属元素の微細な金属酸化物粉末を黒鉛粉末を用
いて還元するのは以下の理由による。The reason why the fine metal oxide powder of each metal element is reduced using graphite powder is as follows.
即ち従来の合金粉末の製造方法は、噴霧法、粉砕法、還
元法等が用いられているが、本発明においては、原料で
ある金属酸化物粉末が微細に粉砕されていることがら(
平均粒径が3μm以下)、還元時の還元温度を比較的低
温(900〜1000℃)とすることができ、還元工程
において合金粉末粒子が強固に焼結したり、粒成長する
ことな(相互に弱く結合した状態になり、粉砕によって
容易に粒径10um以下の微細な合金粉末とすることが
できる。That is, conventional methods for producing alloy powders use a spraying method, a pulverization method, a reduction method, etc., but in the present invention, since the metal oxide powder that is the raw material is finely pulverized (
The average particle size is 3 μm or less), and the reduction temperature during reduction can be set to a relatively low temperature (900 to 1000°C), and the alloy powder particles will not be strongly sintered or grain grown (mutual) during the reduction process. It becomes a weakly bonded state, and can be easily made into a fine alloy powder with a particle size of 10 um or less by pulverization.
また、黒鉛粉末の還元により製造された微細な合金粉末
が優れた活性を有していることから焼結性に優れており
、合金化および炭化物形成反応も容易に進行させること
ができる。Furthermore, since the fine alloy powder produced by reducing graphite powder has excellent activity, it has excellent sinterability, and alloying and carbide formation reactions can proceed easily.
従って、前記合金粉末は微細粉末であるにもかかわらず
圧縮成形性に優れており、通常の金型成形法で容易に圧
粉成形することができる。成形体はつづいて通常の条件
により焼結を行なう。すなわち不活性ガス下で1100
〜1200℃の範囲で行なうことが好ましい。Therefore, although the alloy powder is a fine powder, it has excellent compression moldability and can be easily compacted using a normal molding method. The compact is then sintered under normal conditions. i.e. 1100 under inert gas
It is preferable to conduct the reaction at a temperature of 1200°C to 1200°C.
得られた金属焼結体の密度比が98%未満では残留気孔
が多く成りすぎて、耐ピツチング性、耐摩耗性および摺
動する相手材に対する損傷性を増大させることから密度
比は98%以上が望ましい。If the density ratio of the obtained metal sintered body is less than 98%, there will be too many residual pores, which will increase pitting resistance, abrasion resistance, and damage to the sliding mating material. Therefore, the density ratio should be 98% or more. is desirable.
また、残留気孔の直径が5μを越えると上述の特性が劣
化するので5μ以下の小さい残留気孔とするのが望まし
い。Furthermore, if the diameter of the residual pores exceeds 5 μm, the above-mentioned characteristics deteriorate, so it is desirable that the residual pores be as small as 5 μm or less.
さらに、残留気孔の形状は球状に近い程耐ピッチング性
に優れ、残留気孔が閉気孔であることが潤滑油の保持効
果を向上して耐スカッフィング性を優れたものにする。Furthermore, the closer the shape of the residual pores is to a spherical shape, the better the pitting resistance is, and the fact that the residual pores are closed pores improves the lubricating oil retention effect and makes the scuffing resistance excellent.

径が10μを越えると摺動する相手材に対する損傷性が
増大するからである。In this metal sintered body, the area ratio of spherical carbides with an average grain size of 10 μm or less in the structure is 10 to 40%.
The reason why the particles are uniformly dispersed within this range is that if the average particle size exceeds 10 μm, the damage to the sliding mating material increases.
また、炭化物形状を球状としているのは摺動する相手材
に対する損傷性を少なくすることができるからである。Moreover, the reason why the carbide shape is spherical is that damage to the mating material on which it slides can be reduced.
さらに組織中の炭化物の面積率は、40%を越えると炭
化物量が過多となって摺動する相手材に対する損傷性を
増大し、10%未満では炭化物量が少なすぎて耐摩耗性
を低下させるので10〜40%とするのが好ましい。Furthermore, if the area ratio of carbides in the structure exceeds 40%, the amount of carbides becomes excessive and increases damage to the sliding mating material, while if it is less than 10%, the amount of carbides is too small and reduces wear resistance. Therefore, it is preferably 10 to 40%.
