ブライト組織の混合組織となっていた。(Prior art) Conventionally, a sliding member such as a camshaft used as a valve mechanism in a vehicle engine has a sliding contact between a cam portion or a tappet, and therefore has poor wear resistance, toughness, etc. For example, camshafts are formed by chilling the surface layer of a cast iron camshaft cast using a mold. At this time, as shown in Fig. 3, the surface layer of the molten metal filled in the mold cavity is rapidly cooled to form a grain-like solidified layer, and then the mold is released and left to cool, so that the rapidly cooled surface layer becomes highly hard. A method of chilling the tissue is known. The steel structure of the chill layer thus formed was a mixed structure of pearlite structure and rateburite structure.

It is necessary to further improve the characteristics. In other words, especially in sliding parts such as the contact between the cam part and tappet, which are lubricated with lubricating oil but cannot be expected to have good fluid lubrication, such as bearings, the hardness of the member itself and its self-lubricating properties may be affected. , pitching (small hole scratches on the shaft), scuffing (galling scratches) by adjusting the characteristics such as surface treatment appropriately.
It is necessary to suppress problems such as , abnormal wear as much as possible. For this reason, the mixed structure of pearlite and rateebrite in the chill layer obtained by conventional die casting can be replaced with a mixed structure of ratebrite and sorbite structure, which has excellent toughness and wear resistance, or a mixture of ratebrite structure and tempered martensite structure. It was desirable to improve the pitting resistance and scuffing resistance of the structure.

At this time, as a hardening process, the sliding part, which is in the temperature range of A1 transformation point or higher and 980°C or lower, is forcedly air cooled immediately after the mold is released from the mold casting. This eliminates the need for a quenching heating device and shortens the cycle time. In addition, defects such as distortion, deformation, and cracks caused by quenching heating are suppressed.

A chilled layer is formed on the surface layer portion 1a by pouring a molten alloy cast iron having the following components into a mold and rapidly cooling the surface. For this reason, the mold used for casting is, for example, 0.8 to 4.
The mold is made of a material with high thermal conductivity such as a Cu-Cr alloy containing 0% Cr, and a cooling path is formed in a predetermined part inside the mold in order to rapidly cool the surface part. The cast product obtained by such die casting is allowed to cool after being released from the mold, but in the present invention, as shown in FIG. At some point, quenching is performed using forced air cooling.

強靭である。The tempering step after quenching is performed by heating in an electric furnace. In this example, 600°C, IH tempering (solid line in Figure 2),
An example of IH tempering at 180°C (broken line in Figure 2) is shown; when tempering at 600°C, the martensite structure due to quenching changes to a tempered sorbite structure, and when tempering at 180°C, the martensite structure due to quenching changes. changes to a tempered martensite (β-martensite) structure. Therefore, when tempered at 600°C, the chill layer of the cam part 2 becomes a mixed structure of the ratebrite structure obtained by die casting and the tempered sorbite structure obtained by quenching and tempering, whereas when tempered at IIIQ°C, This results in a mixed structure of the ratebrite structure obtained by die casting and the tempered martensitic structure obtained by quenching and tempering. In either case, a surface hardness of HRC55 or higher can be ensured. The mixed tissue thus formed is
It has excellent tenacity against impact, etc., and is tough and resistant to fatigue failure.

い。In addition, the quenching and tempering treatment is applied only to the necessary parts of the sliding parts.
In other words, it may be applied only to the cam lifter portion of the cam portion.

Since the quenching process is performed by forced air cooling while the temperature is in the range of 0°C to 980°C, a device such as a high-frequency heating device required for reheating is not required, and the cycle time can be shortened. Furthermore, there is no risk of distortion, deformation, cracks, etc. due to reheating.
