The present invention relates to a method for locally hardening cast iron, and more particularly, the present invention relates to a method for locally hardening cast iron, and more particularly, the present invention relates to a method for locally hardening cast iron, which hardens cast iron by increasing the cooling rate of only necessary parts of the casting by introducing air or a mixed fluid of air and water into the mold. Concerning curing methods. Conventionally, methods for hardening cast iron include Mo,
Methods such as adding alloying elements such as Cu, applying a cold metal, breaking the mold at a casting temperature of 800 to 1000°C, and heat treatment (normalizing, etc.) are known. However, with the method of adding alloying elements, local hardening is not possible and chilling is likely to occur, resulting in poor cutting workability. Also,
Even with the method of applying a cold metal, chilling that deteriorates cutting workability is likely to occur. Meanwhile, casting temperature 800~1000℃
When demolding is carried out, there is a large variation in hardness, and it is impossible to harden the inner part of the casting. Furthermore, although local hardening is possible with the heat treatment method, reheating is required, which is economically disadvantageous. The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and its purpose is to provide a method that can locally harden cast iron without generating chill. According to the research conducted by the present inventors, even if the required hardening part of the casting is the inner part of the casting, the temperature of the cast iron casting during solidification and cooling inside the mold reaches 720 to 1150°C, preferably 780 to 1000°C. At that point, air or a mixed fluid of air and water is allowed to flow in through air holes provided in the main mold or even the core depending on the required hardening part, and the temperature of the cast iron casting is brought to 300 - 300°C.
By stopping the flow when the temperature reaches 700°C and increasing the cooling rate of only the necessary parts of the casting to harden it, the cast iron can be locally hardened without the above-mentioned problems such as generation of chill. The present invention has been completed based on the discovery that this can be done. That is, the feature of the local hardening method for cast iron according to the present invention is that only the necessary parts of the cast iron casting can be locally hardened, and this hardening can be achieved by increasing the cooling rate of only the necessary parts of the casting in the mold. It is something that makes you For this reason, air or a mixed fluid of air and water is used as the refrigerant, and the refrigerant is allowed to flow into the mold when the temperature of the casting being cooled in the mold reaches 720 to 1150°C, preferably 780 to 1000°C. , 300~
It is characterized by stopping the inflow when the temperature reaches 700℃. Hereinafter, the localized curing method of the present invention will be explained in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 shows an example of application of the method of the present invention. First, ordinary cast iron consisting of, for example, 2.8 to 3.5% C, 1.5 to 2.5% Si, and the balance iron is poured into a mold to form a casting 1 of a predetermined shape. do. In the figure, 2 is the main mold, and 3 is the core. Further, the part A of the casting 1 is the required hardening part (the part to be hardened). Casting 1, after casting,
After the process of solidification and cooling, when the temperature of the casting 1 reaches preferably 780 to 1000 degrees Celsius, air (2 to 5 m A mixed fluid of 3 /min) and water (0 to 2/min) is introduced, and the inflow is stopped when the temperature of the casting 1 reaches 300 to 700°C. Note that when the air holes 4 as shown in FIG. 1 are provided, the thin film portion of the core 3 interposed between the part A to be hardened of the casting 1 and the mixed fluid is gradually blown away by the mixed fluid. It is scraped and ceases to exist at the end of the hardening process. By this method, the part to be hardened A of the casting 1
has a Brinell hardness of 230 to 270 and a tensile strength of 30 to 40 kg/
mm 2 and the necessary local hardening is achieved. The inflow of the refrigerant can be started when the temperature of the casting reaches the solidification temperature of cast iron, 1150°C or lower, but it needs to start at the eutectoid transformation point of 720°C or higher, preferably at a temperature of 780 to 1000°C. Start when you are old enough. As the refrigerant, air or a mixed fluid of air and water (for example, in the form of a mist or mist) is most suitable. It is not preferable to use only water (a water stream without air mixed in) because it will penetrate into the mold. The cooling rate of the casting varies depending on the flow rate of the refrigerant, and an example of the relationship between the type of refrigerant, the flow rate, and the cooling rate is shown in Table 1 below.

[Table] In addition, the cooling rate changes depending on the flow rate of the refrigerant, and the mechanical properties such as Brinell hardness and tensile strength of the hardened part of the casting naturally change due to the difference in the cooling rate. The effect of cooling rate on Brinell hardness and tensile strength is shown in FIG. In FIG. 2, the chemical components of cast irons a and b are as follows. a: C3.35~3.45%, Si2.00~2.10%, balance iron b: C3.35~3.45%, Si2.00~2.10%, Cr0.25~
0.35%, balance iron From Figure 2, it can be seen that both Brinell hardness and tensile strength increase as the cooling rate increases. Therefore, the type and amount of the refrigerant may be appropriately set depending on the cooling rate, that is, the desired mechanical properties of the part to be hardened. Next, the mechanical properties of castings produced by the local hardening method of the present invention are shown in Table 2 below. For comparison, an example using the alloy addition method is also shown. In addition, when the refrigerant was only air, the inflow was started when the casting temperature was 920 to 940°C, and the inflow was stopped when the temperature reached 600°C. Further, when a mixed fluid of air and water was used as the refrigerant, the inflow was started at 900 to 920°C and stopped when the temperature reached 600°C.

[Table] The method of locally hardening cast iron according to the present invention can be optimally applied to, for example, hardening treatment of liner portions of dry liner type gasoline and diesel engine cylinder blocks. Conventionally, in order to make the hardness of the liner part about 230 (Brinell hardness H B = 230), the liner was cast with a material containing alloying elements such as Cr, Mo, and Cu, but this resulted in deterioration of castability and damage to the cylinder block. Overall hardening, thin wall part (skirt part)
There are problems such as chill generation. However, the entire material is made of the same material (regular cast iron: specified in JIS G5501).
By casting with FC20 or FC25 (equivalent to FC20 or FC25) and applying the above-described local hardening method of the present invention at this casting stage, only the hardness of the liner part can be reduced to H B = 230 ~
250, and other parts have hardness less than that, a dry liner type cylinder block for gasoline and diesel engines can be obtained, without causing problems such as deterioration of castability or occurrence of chill in thin-walled parts. The wear resistance of the liner portion can be improved.
