Abstract

PURPOSE:To add up corrosion and damage resistance to the bearing device in the title by pressure-setting thermoplastic adhesive film to the surface of an exposed part, after cleaning degreasing and preheating the surface. CONSTITUTION:The necessary portion of the work (the cylindrical part 7 of a hub 2) of an automobile wheel bearing device exposed outside is at first cleaned, degreased (for example, with benzen, etc.) and subsequently, preheated (for example, at 100 to 140 deg.C for 5 to 10 minutes). Thereafter, thermoplastic adhesive film (for example, macro molecule multiple compound material, the softening point of which is more than 100 deg.C) is pressure-set on an objective face through an elastic body. In this method, the thickness of a coating layer 8 formed on the surface of the work can be easily adjusted by changing the thickness of the film to be pressure-set and also no large scale device is required.

Conventionally, automobile wheel bearing devices and parts thereof are exposed to the outside and are prone to rust and damage, so they are often painted with phthalate resin paint, but painting is done while leaving the unpainted parts. This makes the process extremely complicated. For example, in the axle hub flange of an automobile, the unpainted parts are masked, and the parts to be uniformly painted are cleaned and degreased with a solvent (halogenated solvent), and then a base coat (undercoat) layer is applied by spraying. Processes such as coating, heating drying (50°C, 10 to 15 minutes, spray coating of a topcoat layer, heating drying and curing (175°C, 20 to 30 minutes), and cooling are required. The cost of painting becomes extremely high due to the waste caused by paint scattering caused by the spray method and the increase in the size of equipment.Therefore, in order to simplify the labor and reduce costs, for example, Utility Application No. 63-70963 Although automatic painting equipment has been developed, it cannot be said to be very satisfactory.

The structure of an automobile wheel bearing device has many differences depending on the model. For example, as shown in Fig. 2, a wheel is centered around a rotating shaft driven through a joint 1, 2, main works such as a knuckle 3, a disc brake rotor 4, a rim 5, and a tire 6. A workpiece that has a particularly exposed part that needs to be provided with corrosion resistance and damage resistance is, for example, the cylindrical part 7 of the hub 2 (shown in an enlarged view in FIG. 1), and other workpieces. Areas that are directly exposed to wind, rain, mud, water, etc., or are easily hit by solid objects such as pebbles.

Next, the thermoplastic adhesive according to the present invention is a polymer polycondensate that has an excellent affinity for metals and can be easily formed into a film, and preferably has a softening point of 100°C or higher. It belongs to the so-called true melt adhesives,

There are a wide variety of resins, such as reaction-curing resins that form insoluble and infusible three-dimensional network polymers by adding catalysts. It is extremely difficult and undesirable to apply the polymer to form a polymer film of a constant thickness.

And, such a film is used in the cylindrical part of the hub 2 shown in FIG. (outer diameter approximately 721 mm), first, the corresponding portion of the cylindrical portion 7 was wiped with a benzene-impregnated cloth to degrease and clean it, and then preheated. Although preheating varies somewhat depending on the volume of the workpiece, it is usually done using a constant temperature bath or heating furnace.
Heating at 00 to 140° C. for 5 to 10 minutes may be used as a guide, and in this example, preheating was performed at 140° C. for 10 minutes in a furnace fjL. On the other hand, the film to be pasted is cut to a predetermined size, and this film piece is placed on a predetermined place on the workpiece.
During this crimping operation, the crimping operation is performed for 0 to 60 seconds.
For example, it is best to press the film surface with an elastic material that does not adhere to the film, such as fluorine-based or silicone-based rubber. In this example, the film is pressed using fluorine-based rubber for 1 minute at a work temperature of 120°C. Then, a thermoplastic adhesive film 8 as shown in FIG. 1 was formed. Such crimping and forming may be performed on the inner surface of the cylindrical portion 7 at the same time as on the outer surface or separately, and the coating 8 thus formed is
It did not peel off in a peel test, did not expand when immersed in white kerosene, and was able to fully withstand a heat resistance test at 120°C.

It is extremely advantageous. Therefore, it can be said that this invention has great significance.
