Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain desired surface hardness and hardness penetration without causing quench crack by subjecting the desired part of a product to high-frequency heating and then by carrying out cooling by air injection. CONSTITUTION:A high-frequency electric current is sent to a coil 3 while revolving a camshaft 1 so as to heat e.g. a journal part 2 of the camshaft. If the desired hardness penetration is about 0.5-3mm, the surface temp. is held at 930-950 deg.C for about 10-15sec. Directly after the conclusion of heating, air is jetted from a jet orifice 5 to carry out cooling.

Detailed Description of the Invention [Field of Industrial Application J] The present invention relates to a method for induction hardening alloy cast iron (hereinafter referred to as FCA@iron). [Prior Art] It has been known to heat cast iron with high frequency and then cool and harden it with an aqueous solution of a water-soluble hardening agent or oil. [Problems to be Solved by the Invention] The present inventors made a camshaft using FCA II iron and tried induction hardening the journal portion thereof. However, when the journal portion of the FCA II iron camshaft was quenched by high-frequency heating under various conditions and cooled with various quenching fluids, quench cracking occurred in all cases. In view of the above-mentioned points, the present invention provides an FCA that does not cause quench cracking.
The present invention provides a method for induction hardening of II iron. [Means for Solving Point ElIijI] That is, the present invention is an induction hardening process for FCA II iron that involves heating a desired part of the FCA II iron product with high frequency, and then cooling it by injecting air. Regarding the quenching method. [implementation! Jl11 In the present invention, it has been found that the occurrence of quench cracking can be prevented by injecting an aqueous solution of a water-soluble quenching agent after high-frequency heating of FCA II iron, and by cooling it relatively slowly into oil. It was done. Although the FCA steel to which the present invention is applied is not particularly limited, FC^3, for example, is preferably used as the Kamsha 7F material. FC^3 is C3, 1~3.5%, Si
1,7-2.4%, Mn 004-0.8%, P 0
.. 1% or less, 5O01% or less, CuO, 8-1,0%
, CrO, 2 to 0.4%, and the balance is Fe. When the journal part of the FC^3g1 camshaft is induction hardened by the method of the present invention, the surface hardness is Hv300 or more and the hardening depth is 0.5-3. Oim can be quenched and no quenching cracks occur. Next, the method of the present invention will be explained in detail by taking as an example the case in which the method of the present invention is applied to the hardening of the Sharnal portion of an FCA II iron camshaft, but it is of course applicable to other FCA@iron products. ! Figure s1 is a schematic explanatory diagram showing an embodiment in which the journal portion of the camshaft 7F is hardened by the method of the present invention. (1) is the camshaft, and (2) is its journal portion. The camshaft 7) (1) is rotatably supported at both ends thereof about a central axis. (3) is an annular high-frequency heating coil surrounding the journal portion (2), and the coil (3) is connected to a high-frequency oscillator (not shown). It is preferable that the width of the coil (3) is approximately twice the quenching width.There are annular pipes (4) above and below the high frequency heating coil (3) for cooling the coil.
is provided. It is necessary to keep water constantly flowing through this cooling pipe (4) during heating. A large number of air injection holes (5) are provided on the inner peripheral side of the high frequency heating coil (3). Injection hole (5
) has a diameter of about 2.5 JII, and the number is 20 to 40.
It is about 1 piece. The inside of the high-frequency heating coil is connected to a compressed air source (not shown), and a solenoid valve or the like is inserted to supply and stop the compressed air. In order to perform hardening with the above-mentioned apparatus, preferably, a high frequency current is applied to the fill (3) while rotating the camshaft (7) (1) to heat the journal portion (2). The heating conditions include, for example, a hardening depth of 0.5 to 3. If it is about OI, the surface temperature should be set at 930-950 for about 10-15 seconds.
Make sure to keep it at ℃. Immediately after heating is completed, air is injected from the injection hole (5) to cool the product. Air injection amount is from room temperature to 40℃ for 20 to 25 seconds.
It is set to cool down to about ℃. In this way, a camshaft having a journal portion with desired surface hardness and hardening depth without causing quench cracking can be obtained. [Example] Next, the present invention will be explained in detail by giving examples. The camshaft of Example FC^3 was retained, and its journal part (
321 m in diameter and 23.5 in in width) was induction hardened using the apparatus shown in FIG. The hardening width of the journal portion was set to 13.5iv at the center. The coil used has an inner diameter of 38 z m s and an outer diameter of 78 yt.
A material with a width of 23j+z was used. The diameter heating conditions for the inner periphery of the coil were as follows. Frequency: 20GkHz Anode voltage: 10kV Anode current: 3.8^ Grid current: 0.58^ Surface temperature: 940℃ Heating time: 13 seconds Immediately after heating, air is injected from the injection hole, and 40
Cooled to ℃. When 50 samples were subjected to the above-mentioned induction hardening, no quench cracking occurred in any of the 50 samples. In addition, the surface hardness of 50 quenched samples was measured along the width direction of the journal part, and the results are shown in Figure 2.
In the figure, the shaded range is the range in which the actual measured values for the 50@ sample exist. From the results in Figure 2, 1
It can be seen that a hardening width (W) of 3.5 ms+ is secured. In addition, 50 hardened samples were subjected to journal sections. The results are shown in Figure tJIJ3.The actual measured value shown in Figure 3 is 5.
This is the average value for 0 samples. From the results shown in FIG. 3, it can be seen that when the desired hardness is set to Hv300 or more, a hardening depth of about 1.7111 is ensured. Furthermore, microscopic observation of the quenched composite fibers of 50 quenched samples revealed that the matrix was mostly martensite. Although a small amount of pearlite remained around the graphite, no particular adverse effects were observed. Comparative Examples 1 to 7 F was prepared in the same manner as in the example except that the quenching fluid shown in Table 1 was used and the quenching conditions were changed as shown in Table 1.
The journal part of the C^3 camshaft was induction hardened. The results are shown in Table 1. The heating conditions other than those shown in Table 1 are as follows. Frequency: 400kHz Anode voltage: 5,8kV Anode current 1: 3.3^ Anode current 2: 3,2^ Lattice current = 0.9~1,0^ In Table 1, the denominator of the numerical value of the results of quench cracking is The number of quenched samples and the numerator represent the number of samples in which quench cracking occurred. As shown in the table, a large number of quench cracks occur when cooling with quenching fluid (induction hardening of FCA II iron is impossible. ) Nicon RL (water-soluble hardening agent manufactured by Nagase Sangyo Co., Ltd.)

The experiment was conducted by changing the open time during cooling in the range of 1 to 5 seconds.
