供することを目的としている。(Industrial Application Field) This invention is installed on the intake side of an automobile internal combustion engine,
The present invention relates to an intake manifold used to feed air or an air-fuel mixture to the internal combustion engine, and particularly relates to an intake manifold made of a thermosetting resin. (Prior Art) Conventionally, an intake manifold is attached to the intake side of an automobile internal combustion engine and used to feed air or air-fuel mixture to the internal combustion engine. In order to avoid intake air interference as much as possible, some shapes are determined by considering the ignition order, etc., and others have various shapes that correspond to the number of cylinders in an internal combustion engine (for example, "New Automotive Engineering Handbook"). Part 4〉” September 30, 1982
Figure 1-61, page 1-25, published by the Society of Automotive Engineers of Japan.
(See “Intake Manifold Example”). For this type of intake manifold, steel-based materials (e.g., JIS SPC, STK, STKM, etc.) have often been used, but aluminum-based materials (e.g., JISAC, ADC, etc.) have also been used to reduce weight. and even thermosetting resins (epoxy resins, etc.)
Manufactured intake manifolds are also being developed. In such a thermosetting resin intake manifold, for example, in the thermosetting resin intake manifold 1 having the shape illustrated in FIG. 1, a female thread for fastening auxiliary equipment such as a collector is used. In providing the boss portion 1a and the boss portion reinforcing portion 1 at the required portions of the intake manifold 1, as shown in FIG.
b, and as shown in FIG. 4, this boss portion 1a
Then, a self-tapping screw 10, which has a cylindrical shape and has a self-tuffing pink male threaded part 10a on the outside and a female threaded part 10b for fastening auxiliary equipment on the inside, is screwed in the direction of arrow A and is secured by self-tuffing. In addition, by this, a female part 10b for fastening auxiliary equipment is provided on the boss part 1a. (Problem to be Solved by the Invention) However, in the conventional thermosetting resin intake manifold 1 provided with the female threaded portion 10b for fastening auxiliary equipment, the female threaded portion 10b for fastening auxiliary equipment is By screwing into the boss portion 1a the self-tapping screw 10 which has a self-tapping male thread portion 10a on the inside and a self-tapping male thread portion 10a on the outside, the intake manifold 1 is provided with a female thread portion 10b for fastening auxiliary equipment.
The inner peripheral surface of the boss portion 1a is a self-tapping male thread portion 10.
Since it is locally subjected to cutting or plastic working by a, there is no risk of cracking or destruction at the threaded connection part where the self-tapping male thread part 10a engages due to vibrations of the internal combustion engine, etc. Therefore, there was a problem in that it was not very desirable as a fastening structure for auxiliary machinery. (Purpose of the Invention) This invention was made in view of such conventional problems, and it is possible to successfully attach auxiliary equipment such as a collector by screwing to an intake manifold made of thermosetting resin. The purpose of the auxiliary equipment mounting is to provide an intake manifold made of thermosetting resin with a fastening part for use.

うなことがなくなる。(Means for Solving the Problems) An intake manifold according to the present invention is provided with a thermoplastic resin nut for fastening auxiliary equipment, which is integrated by insert molding when the intake manifold is molded using a thermosetting resin. The structure of the intake manifold made of such a thermosetting resin is a means for solving the above-mentioned conventional problems. In the thermosetting resin intake manifold according to the present invention, as the thermosetting resin. Examples include phenol resin, epoxy resin, and other unsaturated polyester resins mixed with glass wool (BMC) (<Luc Molding Compound), but are not particularly limited. In addition, in the thermoplastic resin nut that is combined by insert molding when molding the intake manifold with this thermosetting resin, thermoplastic resins include polyamide (nylon) and polypropylene, but these are also particularly limited. Not allowed. In order to prevent the thermoplastic resin nuts from coming off the thermosetting resin intake manifold after the thermoplastic resin nuts are inserted and molded when the thermosetting resin intake manifold is molded. In addition, it is also necessary to provide a part of the thermoplastic resin nut with a protrusion that protrudes in a direction perpendicular to the screw axis and is wrapped in the thermosetting resin part of the intake manifold after insert molding to prevent it from coming off. Desirable accordingly. Further, the intake manifold is molded with a thermosetting resin with a core made of a low melting point metal provided in the hollow portion of the intake manifold, and then the core made of the low melting point metal is melted and removed by high frequency induction heating. When using a process, the surface portion of the thermoplastic resin nut is coated with a coating material containing a magnetic material, and when this coating is performed, for example, during molding of the thermoplastic resin nut, the coating material containing the magnetic material is applied by in-mold coating. The material was coated on the surface of the thermoplastic resin nut, and the thermoplastic resin nut whose surface portion was coated with the coating material containing the magnetic material was placed at the required location of the intake manifold mold. If necessary, it is also desirable to mold the intake manifold using a thermosetting resin so that the thermoplastic resin nut is integrally joined by insert molding. In this case, since the magnetic material is present at the boundary between the intake manifold made of thermosetting resin and the nut made of thermoplastic resin, the magnetic material is present in the boundary between the intake manifold made of thermosetting resin and the nut made of thermoplastic resin. When the magnetic body is melted and removed by high-frequency induction heating, the magnetic body also generates heat due to high-frequency induction heating, so the nut made of thermoplastic resin is moderately softened. It becomes possible to further strengthen the bond between the intake manifold and the intake manifold made of resin. (Function of the Invention) Since the intake manifold according to the present invention has the above-described configuration, the connection of the thermoplastic resin nut to the thermosetting resin intake manifold becomes extremely strong, and Since the nuts that fasten the auxiliary equipment are made of thermoplastic resin, the internal threads of the nuts are subject to appropriate elongation, so even when repeated stress is applied to the auxiliary equipment, the Appropriate elongation of the female threaded portion makes it difficult for cracks and breakage to occur, making it easier to attach auxiliary equipment to the thermosetting resin intake manifold. (Example) FIG. 2 shows a state of the thermosetting resin intake manifold 1 having the shape illustrated in FIG. 1 immediately after molding. In Fig. 2, an intake manifold 1 made of thermosetting resin is molded into a hollow shape using a mold 2 and a core 3 made of a low-melting point metal, and has a cylindrical boss for attaching auxiliary equipment such as a collector. It has a portion 1a and a boss portion reinforcing portion 1b. The mold 2 at the portion corresponding to the boss portion 1a and the boss portion reinforcing portion 1b is provided with a concave portion 2a for forming the boss portion and the boss portion reinforcing portion, and four portions for forming the boss portion and the boss portion reinforcing portion. 2a is provided with a protruding portion 2b into which a female threaded portion 4a on the inner peripheral side of a thermoplastic resin nut 4 formed in advance is inserted. An intake manifold 1 made of thermosetting resin is manufactured using such a mold 2 and a core 3 made of a low melting point metal.
When molding, first, it is molded from thermoplastic resin into a cylindrical shape with one end closed, and has a female thread part 4a on the inner peripheral part, and a thread in the outer peripheral direction (i.e., orthogonal to the screw axis) at the closed end. A thermoplastic resin nut 4 is manufactured, which has a pull-out prevention protrusion 4b that protrudes in a direction in which the thermoplastic resin is molded, and whose outer surface is coated with a coating material 5 containing a magnetic material by in-mold coating during molding of the thermoplastic resin. After fitting this thermoplastic resin nut 4 into the protrusion 2b provided on the boss portion and the four parts 2a for molding the boss portion reinforcement portion of the mold 2, the mold 2
and a core 3 made of a low melting point metal are combined to form an intake manifold molding space, and then a thermosetting resin is injected and molded into the shape of the intake manifold, and the thermoplastic resin nut 4 is insert molded. As a result, a thermosetting resin intake manifold injection molded body is obtained, in which the thermoplastic resin nut 4 is integrally bonded by insert molding. Next, this intake manifold injection molded body was
It is immersed in an oil bath 11 shown in the figure. The oil bath 11 shown in FIG. 3 has a heater 13 on the outside of an oil container 12, a high-frequency induction heating coil 14 inside, and houses oil 15. The injection molded article is immersed in oil 15 while being clamped by a clamping device 16 and placed in a high frequency induction heating coil 14,
The core 3 made of a low melting point metal is melted by high frequency induction heating by the high frequency induction coil 14. At this time, the melted low melting point metal 3' accumulates at the bottom of the oil container 12. Also, during this high-frequency induction heating, the magnetic material applied to the surface of the thermoplastic resin nut 4 and surrounded by the boss portion (1a) of the intake manifold injection molded product after the intake manifold injection molded product is molded is removed. The magnetic material contained in the covering material 5 generates heat by high-frequency induction heating, and the thermoplastic resin nut 4 is heated and softened appropriately, thereby making the bond with the intake manifold 1 made of a thermosetting resin stronger. The thermosetting resin intake manifold 1 manufactured according to this embodiment has a thermoplastic resin nut 4 integrally provided on its boss portion 1a by insert molding. 4 is fixed firmly enough, and the self-tapping male threaded part 10a is fixed as in the case where the female threaded part tab is provided by screwing in the self-tapping male threaded part 10a of the conventional self-tapping screw 10. There will be no problems such as cracks or destruction due to screwing. Furthermore, since the thermoplastic resin nut 4 is provided with a pull-out prevention protrusion 4b that protrudes in a direction perpendicular to the screw axis direction, after molding the thermosetting resin intake manifold 1, this Since the slip-out prevention protrusion 4b is wrapped in thermosetting resin, there is no possibility that the thermoplastic resin nut 4 will slip out from the boss portion 1a.Furthermore, it is made of a low melting point metal. During high-frequency induction heating when melting and removing the core 3, the magnetic material of the coating material 5 containing a magnetic material coated on the surface of the thermoplastic resin nut 4 generates heat, and the thermoplastic resin is heated to an appropriate level. Since it is softened, the fixation of the thermoplastic resin nut 4 to the thermosetting resin intake manifold 1 becomes stronger. Furthermore, since the nut 4 is made of thermoplastic resin, when auxiliary equipment is attached by screwing, a moderate amount of elongation will occur at the screwed portion.
Even if repeated stress is applied via auxiliary equipment etc., the screw threads will not crack or break.
