Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a cylinder which is light in weight and has excellent resistance to wear and heat conductivity in a method of embedding a high-silicon Al alloy sleeve by casting in an Al alloy by subjecting beforehand the sleeve to a solution heat treatment and the produced cylinder to an artificial aging treatment. CONSTITUTION:A high-silicon Al alloy is first formed into a sleeve by means such as casting, forging or the like, and the sleeve is subjected to a solution heat treatment such as T4 treatment (solution heat treatment). Such sleeve 1 is then set in the cavity 3 in a metallic mold 2 and a molten Al alloy 5 which is a base material is packed in the cavity under pressure and the die casting to embed the circumference of the sleeve 1 by casting in said alloy is performed. The hardness of the sleeve 1 decreases by the effect of the heat in the molten metal in this stage. The cylinder obtd. by die casting is thereupon subjected to an artificial aging treatment, so that the hardness of the sleeve 1 is maintained within a required range.

To achieve this objective, the present invention involves setting a high-silicon aluminum alloy sleeve that has been subjected to solution treatment such as T4 treatment in advance in a mold cavity, and then applying an electric current to the molten aluminum alloy in the cavity. The gist is that the cylinder is filled with an artificial aging treatment under pressure, and the outer periphery of the sleeve is cast.

First, a high-silicon aluminum alloy (JIS, A390 equivalent) having a silicon content of 15 to 18 wt% is formed into a sleeve by casting, forging, or other means. This sleeve is then subjected to solution treatment such as T4 treatment.

After that, as shown in FIG. 1, the sleeve 1 and the mold 2 are
The plunger 4 pressurizes the cavity 3 with molten aluminum alloy (JIS, equivalent to DC 12) at a molten metal pressure of 900 #/crl, and inserts a die that surrounds the sleeve 1 into the cavity 3. Carry out casting.

Therefore, the cylinder obtained by the above-mentioned die-casting process is heated to 160-180 DEG C. and subjected to artificial aging treatment for 4 to 8 hours. By applying this artificial aging treatment, the hardness of the sleeve 1 increases from the upper part to the lower part to 1 former LI384.

This treatment increases (and stabilizes) the hardness of the sleeve 1 because the solution-treated high-silicon aluminum alloy sleeve does not become over-aged under the heat of die-casting [subsequent aging]. It is presumed that this is because the effect is sufficient.

Figure 2 shows sleeve 1 not previously subjected to solution treatment.
This is a graph comparing cases of die-casting with the '4 treatment and the '1'6 treatment. As is clear from this graph, the sleeve 1 was not preliminarily subjected to solution treatment.
If processing is selected, go to 1.4 If no processing is selected, go to 2 ratio,
It can be seen that the hardness of the sleeve after die casting varies in the upper and lower parts, and that the required hardness cannot be obtained in the lower part. Furthermore, it can be seen that even if the same T4 treatment is applied, if the artificial aging treatment is not performed after die casting, the required hardness will not be obtained due to the presence of holes in the lower part. Therefore, it can be said that the 'I'4 treatment is superior to the 'I'6 treatment as the solution treatment applied to the sleeve 1.

As explained above, according to the present invention, prior to die-casting in which the periphery of the high-silicon aluminum alloy sleeve is cast with molten aluminum alloy, the sleeve is subjected to solution treatment, and the sleeve is manufactured by die-casting. By not applying artificial aging treatment to the cylinder, it is possible to increase the hardness of the sleeve, which had been lowered by tie-casting, to the specified hardness, and therefore it is lightweight and has excellent wear resistance and thermal conductivity. 1゜ which has great effects such as being able to obtain a cylinder made of aluminum alloy.
