Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve quietness and durability, by cementation quenching or nitrocementation quenching a ring gear under a condition that its back surface part applies an anticarbon process. CONSTITUTION:A ring gear 1 applies an anticarbon agent 12 to its back surface part, and the ring gear, which is piled inserting a vertical bar 16, performs cementation quenching. In this way, no cementation process is applied to the back surface part, and if quenching and tempering are performed under this condition, the back surface part, easier generating a martensite modification, is first hardened, accordingly thereafter, even if the other part is martensite modified expanding the volume after a fixed time, the back surface part is prevented from easily receiving an influence of the modification. Accordingly, the back surface part of the ring gear 1 reduces a heat treatment distortion amount, and the ring gear 1, being well meshed with a driving pinion when the ring gear 1 is built in a differential assembly unit, improves quietness and durability.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) However, in this method, when the ring gear is quenched and tempered after being carburized or carbonitrided, as shown in FIG. A heat treatment distortion occurs in which the surface is lifted by α from the surface. When a ring gear with a heat treatment distortion on the back side is assembled into a differential assembly after being subjected to a specified treatment such as lapping, the heat treatment distortion on the back side causes the tooth contact with the drive pinion to shift, causing vibration and noise. Because of this,
A ring gear without such heat treatment distortion is desired. As a method for adjusting heat treatment distortion, tooth surface polishing after heat treatment,
There is a wrapping process, etc. Although minute heat treatment distortions can be improved by such a method, it is impossible to improve large heat treatment distortions that occur on the back surface. Therefore,
It is necessary to eliminate the heat treatment distortion of the back surface portion by taking into account the heat treatment distortion during gear cutting before carburizing and quenching and carbonitriding. However, the amount of heat treatment distortion is quite different among the ring gears stacked on the straight rod 16, those located above, those located below, and those immediately above the spacer 17, and therefore Adjustment during cutting is extremely difficult. Therefore, the present invention can reduce the heat treatment distortion of the back side of the ring gear due to carburizing and quenching or carbonitriding, and also reduce the variation in heat treatment distortion due to the position of the ring gear during carburizing and quenching or carbonitriding. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for heat treatment of a ring gear.

(Function) The heat treatment method of the present invention performs carburizing and quenching or carbonitriding and quenching with the back surface of the ring gear subjected to carburizing treatment. Therefore, the tooth surface, outer peripheral surface, and inner peripheral surface of the ring gear are carburized or carbonitrided, but the back surface is not carburized or carbonitrided. When quenching and tempering are performed in this state, the uncarburized parts are more likely to transform into martensite and harden first, so after a certain period of time, other parts transform into martensite and expand in volume. However, it becomes less susceptible to its effects. As a result, the amount of heat treatment distortion on the back surface of the ring gear is reduced, and the variation in the amount of heat treatment distortion depending on the position when standing on a straight rod is also significantly reduced.

(Effects of the Invention) The ring gear heat treatment method of the present invention includes carrying out carburizing treatment and heat treatment on the back surface of the ring gear. The back surface of the ring gear does not need to be carburized, since it is not directly related to the strength of the differential. Therefore, by carburizing the back surface of the ring gear, only heat treatment distortion of the back surface can be prevented without affecting the strength of the differential. Therefore, after gear cutting, heat treatment such as carburizing and quenching, carbonitriding and quenching is performed by the method of the present invention,
After that, the ring gear manufactured by performing the prescribed processing meshes well with the drive pinion when assembled into the differential assembly, producing a quiet and durable differential without generating vibration or noise. assembly can be provided.
