Abstract

PURPOSE:To manufacture the outer fitting part for watch excellent in its fine sight and corrosion resistance by brazing gold and titanium after plating a metal excepting gold and titanium on the surface of gold and titanium in advance. CONSTITUTION:The metal excluding gold or titanium is plated on the surface of a gold or gold alloy and/or titanium or titanium alloy. As t for the above metal to be plated, what a nickel, copper, palladium, chrome, silver or those alloys are piled more than one layer is suitable. The above gold or gold alloy and titanium or titanium alloy subjected to plating treatment are then brazed. The above brazing is preferably performed in the inert gas or vacuum heating atmosphere by using the gold alloy as the brazing filler metal for corrosion resistance. The above plated metal is thus diffused and dissipated and the outer fitting part with a beautiful view and good corrosion resistance is obtd. without causing any cut.

Description

【発明の詳細な説明】 〔産業上の利用分野〕 この発明はチタンと金の接合部を有する時計製造分野で

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention is utilized in the field of watchmaking with titanium and gold joints.

〔発明の概要〕[Summary of the invention]

チタンと金をろうづけする場合、高温でチタンが反応し
やすく、金と短時間に合金化し、接合部の範囲を越えて
、周辺部まで溶融させるいわゆる喰われを起しやすい。
When brazing titanium and gold, titanium tends to react at high temperatures, alloying with gold in a short time and melting beyond the joint area to the periphery, which is likely to occur.

これは、装飾品としては致命的である。この喰われはチ
タンと金との間で顕著であるため、この両者の間に別金
属のめっき層を入れることでその解決をはかった。
This is fatal as an ornament. Since this erosion is most noticeable between titanium and gold, we attempted to solve this problem by inserting a plating layer of another metal between the two.

〔従来の技術〕[Conventional technology]

Titanium and gold are mainly bonded for decorative purposes, and for watches, mechanical bonding and inlays are used.

しかしこれらの方法は、形状、デザインに制限を与える
ため、ろう付は技術の開発が望まれていた。
However, since these methods impose restrictions on shape and design, it has been desired to develop brazing technology.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] According to their phase diagram, titanium and gold form a plurality of intermetallic compounds depending on their alloy component ratios, which generally makes them brittle.

しかし時計外装用としては、その使用条件が、機械構造
要素はど厳しくなく、殆どの場合、強度上問題はない。
However, for use on the exterior of a watch, the usage conditions are not very strict regarding mechanical structural elements, and in most cases there is no problem in terms of strength.

On the other hand, aesthetics are a problem when it comes to watch exteriors, and when titanium and gold come into contact at high temperatures, they begin to melt even for a short period of time, and the correct dimensions and shape are not maintained, resulting in caving in, or eating away, due to the melting.

と金の反応すなわち喰われを防止することが可能になる
The brazing material used for the watch exterior is silver wax, due to its corrosion resistance.
Copper wax is rarely used, and it is almost limited to gold wax. This gold solder (correctly known as gold alloy solder, hereinafter the same) wets and joins both titanium and gold, but first the titanium and gold solder alloy, and then that alloy melts the gold. By delaying this step, it is possible to prevent the titanium and gold from reacting, or being eaten away.

[Means to solve the problem] In order to prevent titanium and gold from melting, that is, being eaten away,
A barrier should be set up to prevent the two from mixing. However, in the case of watch exteriors, it is not possible to provide a barrier that is too thick for reasons of aesthetics and corrosion resistance, so it is important to find a way to make the plating layer as thin as possible to achieve its effect.

以下に実施例を述べる。Examples will be described below.

A clock was made from pure titanium, and four 18-inch gold pins were made separately, and these were butted together and brazed to form the completed side.

The side taken out from the vacuum furnace was immersed in nickel plating stripping solution to remove the unnecessary nickel layer and expose the gold surface. Its appearance was unaffected by either gold or titanium, and was sufficiently decorative to be used as a watch exterior.Moreover, the presence of the nickel plating layer could not be discerned with the naked eye. This is because the brazing temperature was maintained so that the nickel diffused and alloyed with both the titanium and the gold, making the boundaries unclear. Furthermore, despite using nickel plating, which has poor corrosion resistance, for the same reason, it passed the prescribed artificial sweat test and salt water spray m test.

In addition to the above-mentioned embodiments, it goes without saying that brazing at the lowest possible temperature and in the shortest possible time is the best way to avoid corrosion. Brazing using high-frequency heating, resistance heating, etc. is also effective, but care must be taken when brazing products with complex shapes, as locally overheating can occur, which can cause damage even in a short period of time.

[Effects of the Invention] As described above, according to the present invention, titanium and gold are brazed to create a watch exterior that is both aesthetically pleasing and corrosion-resistant. was decided to provide. In particular, in the past, titanium and gold melted together in a short time at high temperatures, causing parts that should not be melted to melt, damaging the aesthetics. This completely prevented it.

以上that's all
