Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a composite plating apparatus for forming a composite plating film on the inner surface of a hollow portion of a work.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A cylinder block for an internal combustion engine is, for example, one in which a cylinder inner surface serving as a sliding surface of a piston ring is cast and formed integrally with the cylinder block, and a Ni / SiC composite plating film is applied to the cylinder inner surface. is there. Ni
The / SiC composite plating film is obtained by co-depositing silicon carbide (SiC) particles in a Ni matrix, which is a metal phase, and has improved wear resistance on the inner surface of the cylinder.

On the other hand, a high-speed plating method is disclosed in Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. Hei 7-118891, "Surface treatment apparatus".
According to this high-speed plating method, the composite plating solution can be forcibly flowed along the inner surface of the cylinder, and the composite plating film can be applied to the inner surface of the cylinder at high speed. The following figure shows the Ni / SiC composite plating film treatment by the apparatus of the publication.

FIG. 9 is an explanatory view of a conventional Ni / SiC composite plating process. Opening 101 of cylinder block 100
By disposing a cylindrical electrode 102 with a gap S in the inside, an annular passage 104 is formed between the opening 101 and the electrode 102.
To form A composite plating solution is flowed through the annular passage 104 as shown by the arrow, and then around the top of the electrode 102, the electrode 10
The flow is turned inward as shown by the arrow in FIG. While continuing the flow of the composite plating solution, the electrode 102
And the cylinder block 100, the SiC particles 107 in the Ni matrix 106 of the composite plating film 105.
... (... indicates a plurality (number). The same shall apply hereinafter).

[0005]

However, the composite plating film 105 shown in FIG. 9 has a problem shown in the following figure. FIG. 10 is an enlarged view of part 10 of FIG. Since the composite plating solution flows in the direction of the arrow along the annular passage 104, the N
A large amount of SiC particles 107 are eutectoid in the i matrix 106. Therefore, as the composite plating solution flows upward (downstream side), the SiC particles 107 in the composite plating solution decrease, and the eutectoid amount of the SiC particles 107 gradually decreases toward the downstream side. For this reason, there is a problem that the wear resistance of the composite plating film decreases on the downstream side.

FIG. 11 is an illustration of the flow rate of a conventional Ni / SiC composite plating solution. The composite plating solution 109 flows along the annular passage 104 as shown by a white arrow. At this time, the flow rate of the composite plating solution 109 on the surface side of the opening 101 becomes small due to the resistance of the surface of the opening 101 as shown by the white arrow. Therefore, the Ni ions 108 in the composite plating solution 109 are collected at the central side where the flow velocity is large, and the Ni ion concentration on the surface side of the opening 101 becomes lower than the specified concentration. As a result, there is a possibility that the Ni matrix 106 of the composite plating film 105 cannot be deposited to a specified thickness.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a composite plating apparatus capable of depositing a metal matrix to a specified thickness, and capable of uniformly depositing ceramic particles on the metal matrix.

[0008]

According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a work mounting table on which a work having a hollow portion is mounted, and a gap formed in the hollow portion of the work mounted on the work mounting table. A tubular electrode having a plurality of through-holes in a peripheral wall opposed to the inner surface of the hollow portion having a bottom or a lid, which is disposed open, a rotating mechanism for rotating the tubular electrode around the axis of the electrode, and a tube. Supplying a composite plating solution in which ceramic particles are mixed with a plating solution inside the shaped electrode, spraying it through through holes in the surrounding wall, and recovering the plating solution from the outside of the cylindrical electrode, and energizing the work and the cylindrical electrode A composite plating apparatus is constituted by the energizing mechanism to be used.

The composite plating solution is sprayed from a plurality of through holes to the outside of the cylindrical electrode, and the sprayed composite plating solution is applied substantially perpendicularly to the inner surface of the hollow portion. For this reason, the composite plating solution that hits the inner surface of the hollow portion becomes turbulent, and metal ions and ceramic particles can be uniformly dispersed in the composite plating solution. As a result, the metal ion concentration in the composite plating solution can be maintained at a specified concentration near the inner surface, and the ceramic particles in the composite plating solution can be uniformly dispersed near the inner surface.

Further, by rotating the cylindrical electrode, the composite plating solution sprayed from the plurality of through holes can be uniformly applied to the entire inner surface of the hollow portion. For this reason, the metal phase matrix can be deposited to a more uniform thickness over the entire inner surface, and the ceramic particles can be more uniformly co-deposited in the metal phase matrix.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, the work mounting table is provided with an insulating member or an insulating coating on the work receiving surface. Since the work receiving surface is provided with an insulating member or an insulating coating, the work can be insulated from the work mounting table and only the work can be energized. As a result, the composite plating film can be efficiently applied to the inner surface of the hollow portion of the work.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, a hole for collecting a composite plating solution is formed in the work mounting table. Since the recovery hole for the composite plating solution is opened in the work mounting table, the composite plating solution that has hit the inner surface of the hollow portion can be recovered from below the hollow portion. As a result, the composite plating solution can be smoothly circulated, so that the composite plating film can be efficiently applied to the inner surface of the hollow portion.

According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, the plurality of through holes are spirally arranged on the peripheral wall of the cylindrical electrode. Since the plurality of through holes are spirally arranged on the peripheral wall of the cylindrical electrode, the composite plating solution can be more uniformly applied to the inner surface of the hollow portion of the work facing the peripheral wall by rotating the cylindrical electrode.
As a result, the metal phase matrix can be deposited to a specified thickness while maintaining the metal ion concentration in the composite plating solution at a specified concentration. Further, since the ceramic particles more uniformly hit the inner surface of the hollow portion, the ceramic particles can be co-deposited uniformly in the metal phase matrix.
