Abstract

PURPOSE:To produce a gear excellent in fatigue strength with superior manufacturing yield by performing tooth flank treatment by means of shot peening after gear cutting and then exerting tooth flank hardening treatment at the time of manufacturing a gear. CONSTITUTION:A steel stock as a gear stock is subjected, via hot forging or after heat treatment such as direct refining, to gear cutting so as to be formed into a gear of the prescribed shape. Since cutting marks 2 and grinding marks 3 at the time of tooth formation are formed on a tooth flank 1 along the direction of a tooth trace at this time, the tooth flank 1 is surface-roughened by means of shot peening treatment to remove the directionality of the cutting and the grinding marks and then the tooth flank is subjected to surface hardening treatment by means of the treatments of nitriding, soft nitriding, carburizing and quenching, etc. By this method, the gear free from the cutting marks and the grinding marks with directionality on the tooth flank and excellent in fatigue strength can be produced.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) However, in manufacturing gears, directional cutting (hobbing marks) and grinding are applied to the south face during gear machining, although the degree of accuracy varies depending on the machining accuracy of gear machining. The marks (shaving marks) are always formed along the tooth trace direction,
Such directional cutting/grinding marks cannot be easily removed even if shot peening or machining is performed as described above, as the surface becomes extremely hard during surface hardening treatment. , the directional cutting and grinding marks described above are to remain on the south surface of the gear as a product. For this reason, in such gears, when the load becomes severe, there is a risk that cracks will occur starting from the cutting and grinding marks due to stress concentration, making it difficult to further improve fatigue strength. There is.

(Means and effects for solving the problem) In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a method for manufacturing a gear in which surface hardening treatment is performed after tooth processing.

With the above configuration, shot peening is performed after tooth processing, which has a soft surface condition, but before surface hardening treatment, so shot peening can be used to roughen the south surface and easily eliminate the directionality of cutting/grinding marks. By eliminating the directionality of the cutting/grinding marks, stress can be dispersed and stress concentration can be prevented. Therefore, it is possible to easily improve the adverse effects of directional cutting/grinding marks and further improve fatigue strength.

The reason why the tooth processing is performed here is that if it is performed after the surface hardening treatment in the subsequent step, the steel material will become extremely hard and it will be difficult to perform the tooth processing.

This cutting/grinding mark 2.3 is formed along the tooth shear direction, and the cutting/grinding mark 2.3 has directionality.

The above-mentioned shot peening is to be performed before the surface hardening treatment in the post-process and after the tooth processing. This is because the tooth surface becomes extremely hard after surface hardening treatment.
Therefore, it is not easy to eliminate the directionality of the cutting/grinding marks by roughening the tooth surface with shot peening, but on the other hand, the tooth surface is softer before surface hardening treatment (compared to that after surface hardening treatment). ), it is easy to smooth the tooth surface by shot peening.

The shot peening conditions can be determined by appropriately selecting the shot particle diameter, shot hardness, shot projection speed, projection distance, etc. In that case, the directionality of the cutting/grinding marks should be The following range is preferable: Shot particle diameter: 0.04 to 0.7 mm If it is less than 0.04 mm, it will take a long time to eliminate the directionality of cutting/grinding marks. If it exceeds 0.7 mm, the tooth surface will become too rough and the fatigue strength will decrease.

Shot hardness: HRC25 to HRC60HR (If it is less than 25, it will be lower than the tooth surface hardness, so it will take a long time to eliminate the directionality of cutting/grinding marks, which is undesirable.
This is because if it exceeds C60, the south face will become too rough and the fatigue strength will decrease.

Shot throwing speed: 50m/sec ~120m/
If the speed is less than 50 m/sec, the machining force will be insufficient,
This is because if it exceeds 120 m/sec, the machining force becomes excessive and the south face becomes rough, resulting in a decrease in fatigue strength.

As the surface hardening treatment, nitriding, soft nitriding, carburizing and quenching, etc. are performed. Nitriding and nitrocarburizing are suitable for engine gears that require precision, such as internal gears in rotary engines, because the treatment temperatures are relatively low and the gears are less likely to deform after gear processing.
