Abstract

PURPOSE:To make a lifter for movable valve light in weight and prevent drop of abrasion resistance by casting the lifter of light alloy solidly as in a single piece and by metallizing the top and back surfaces of the end plate with hard material. CONSTITUTION:A lifter 2 for movable valve is composed of a cylindrical drum part 2a sliding in the engine case and a disc-shaped eld plate 2b being pressed by a movable valve cam 5. The drum part 2a and end plate 2b are cast from light alloy such as aluminum, and the top and back surfaces of this end plate 2b metallized with a hard material. Thus the lifter 2 can be made light in weight as well as there is no fear of abrasion or damage due to impact.

After die-casting and machining a light alloy such as magnesium, the top and back surfaces of the end plate portion 2b are made of hard metal such as hard chromium, carbon steel, stainless steel, or aluminum containing hypereutectic silicon, or ceramics. A hard material such as tungsten carbide is completely thermally sprayed. 15 in the figure indicates a thermally sprayed layer. The thickness of the thermally sprayed layer is preferably 0-2 to 0.5 mm. If it is too thin, it is likely to cause caving, and if it is too thick, the weight will increase and it will easily peel off. In another embodiment, the lid may be made of a hard synthetic resin such as nylon or Teflon by injection molding, and the other material may be thermally sprayed in the same manner as described above. In this case, it is preferable that the sprayed metal layer be formed thicker than in the case of the light alloy described above.

As described above, the valve lifter of the present invention has a cylindrical body that slides inside the engine case, and a disc-shaped end that is pressed by a moving cam VC↓ formed at one end of the body. The plate part and the plastic part are integrally cast from a light alloy, and the top and back surfaces of the end plate part are coated with a hard coating. The top and back surfaces are thermally sprayed and coated with FC hard coating, so it is designed to withstand impact. In addition, the sintered surface is highly porous and oil-retentive, which further enhances the abrasion prevention effect. Furthermore, as a result of the unique vibration of the lifter being interfered with by the sprayed layer rC↓, there is a small effect that, depending on the crotch wound, it is possible to reduce the mechanical noise generated due to the opening and closing of the valve.
