Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent the bending caused by welding of a shaft member by suspending the shaft member to attach a weight to its lower end, and welding a cam and a journal member as the shaft member is rotated. CONSTITUTION:After a cam member 1 and a journal member 2 are fittedly attached to a shaft member 3, the upper end of the shaft member 3 is mounted in a chuck 5b for a motor of a rotary driving device 5, and a disc-shaped weight 8 is mounted on a weight mounting plate 6a. The lower end of the shaft member 3 and a mandrel 6b of a weight supporter 6 are connected through a chuck 7 for the weight. In addition to that, the cam member 1, the journal member 2 and the shaft member 9 are severally welded over their whole circumference as a high energy beam 9 is successively moved downward with the shaft member 3 rotated by a motor 5a, and the weight 8 is removed after welding process. Thus bending at the welded part of the shaft member 3 can be prevented by manufacturing a cam shaft in this way.

(Prior art) As engines have become more multi-valve, camshafts with complex shapes have become required.As a method of manufacturing camshafts, cams obtained by forging or casting, which have been known in the past, have become necessary. Instead of machining the shaft material, as shown in Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 489805, a cam member and a journal member each having a hollow portion and a shaft member are provided separately, and the cam member and the journal member are separately provided. A method has been proposed in which the cam member and journal member are welded to each other after the shaft member is fitted into the hollow portion of the shaft member.

(Problem to be Solved by the Invention) However, when welding the cam member and the journal member to the shaft member, if welding is performed in the circumferential direction along the hollow portions of the cam member and the journal member, the shaft member will be bent and deformed. There is a problem with doing so.

In other words, since the portion that has moved 180 degrees in the circumferential direction from the welding start point contracts and shrinks, there is a problem in that the shaft member is bent in a U-shape at the welding portion. Particularly, when a vibrator is used as a shaft member due to the recent demand for weight reduction of engines, deformation of the shaft member is significant.

Additionally, when welding a cam member and journal member that have been surface hardened by carburizing and quenching to a shaft member, if the shaft member deforms, the grinding allowance for the surface of the cam member and journal member becomes large, and the hardened surface layer may not remain. Alternatively, if an attempt is made to leave the surface hardened layer, there is a problem that unground portions are generated and a predetermined shape cannot be obtained.

Next, in order to prevent weld cracks between the cam member 1 and the journal member 2, the welded parts of the cam member 1 and the journal member 2 are subjected to carburizing treatment, and then the cam member 1 and the journal member 1 are carburized and quenched and tempered. Do this. Carburizing treatment can be done by applying water glass as a carburizing material to the welding area and removing the water glass with a wire brush after carburizing and quenching, or by applying nickel plating or copper plating to the welding area. A method such as masking the welding location can be applied.

In this case, the weight of the weight 8 is preferably set so that the tensile stress applied to the shaft member 3 is within the range of 5 to 50 kgf/cm<2>. The reason for this is that if the tensile stress is less than 5 kgf/am2, the effect of suspending the weight is insufficient, and if the tensile stress exceeds 50 kgf/cm2, the tensile stress becomes excessive and weld cracks are likely to occur.
