Abstract

PURPOSE:To protect the surface of a rare earth magnet easily and reliably by a method in which a rare earth magnet is impregnated with a resin agent and hardened, and thereafter surface treatment such as plating or coating is performed on them. CONSTITUTION:A rare earth magnet 1 is immersed in a resin agent in an atmosphere a under reduced pressure, and the resin agent is sufficiently impregnated inside of it in a pressurized atmosphere. The magnet 1 is removed, and then the resin agent is heated so as to be hardened. The magnet in which resin agents are impregnated has improved brittleness and the holes are sealed. After that, surface treatment such as plating or painting is performed on the hardened magnet 1. As a result of this, the surface of the magnet is protected easily and reliably.

[Prior art and problems to be solved by the invention] Recently, the materials of permanent magnets assembled on the inner peripheral surface of the yoke of electric motors, etc. have changed from alnico and ferrite to samarium and neodymium, which have excellent magnetic properties. Products using rare earth elements are being adopted. However, so-called rare earth permanent magnets containing these rare earth elements have properties that pose problems other than magnetic properties, such as those that easily react with oxygen in the air and are easily oxidized, or are easily brittle. Conventionally, magnets were plated or painted separately and coated with a protective film, but since these rare earth magnets are sintered products, plating and painting are difficult, making the work process cumbersome and complicated. However, this is not just a lie that increases costs, but the reality is that magnets often break when assembled, and even the protective film that is used at the time does not play a sufficient role.
Further improvements were needed.

Next, one embodiment of the present invention will be described based on the drawings. In the drawing, 1 is a magnet used in a permanent magnet type electric motor, and the magnet 1 contains rare earth elements such as neodymium (Nd) and samarium (Sm) in its components. It is supplied as a sintered product for fishing. Because this product is a sintered product, it has microscopically small pores (voids).
is formed and communicates with the inside, but this is first impregnated with a resin agent. As the resin agent used for this impregnation treatment, various commonly known resin agents such as polyester resins and acrylic resins can be used alone or in combination, but of course, it is one that does not alter the quality of the magnet 1. That is necessary. The impregnation procedure is, for example, by immersing the magnet 1 in a resin under a reduced pressure atmosphere, thoroughly impregnating the inside with the resin under a pressurized atmosphere, and then taking it out and heating the resin to harden it. This is accomplished through processing. The magnet 1 that has been impregnated with a resin agent in this way has improved brittleness and has its pores closed, and is then subjected to surface treatments such as plating or painting to prevent the magnet 1 from coming into contact with air. It will be protected.

As described above, in the present invention, although the rare earth magnet is easily oxidized and brittle as it is, its surface is protected from air contact by being subjected to a surface treatment such as plating. Moreover, as a pretreatment for applying this surface treatment, the magnet 1 is impregnated with a resin agent to improve brittleness and fill holes. The treatment can be carried out quickly and smoothly without being affected by small holes in the sintered product, and the treated product can be handled between ferrite magnets and paths.

In summary, since the present invention is constructed as described above, a rare earth magnet that is provided as a sintered product and has properties that are brittle and easily oxidized is impregnated with a resin agent as a pretreatment and hardened, and then plated, etc. A surface treatment is applied to protect it from air contact. This eliminates the need for special surface treatment equipment in the past, significantly reducing capital investment, and even with general-purpose surface treatment equipment, it is possible to produce high-quality and stable surfaces that match the type of use. This process will make it possible to greatly contribute to the general use of rare earth magnets.
