Description

May 27, 1958 A. MNSTER ETAL 2,836,514
HARD SURFACE COATED GEAR MEMBER Filed Nov. 15. 1954 Unite Stats ant HARD SURFASE @DATED GEAR NEMBER Arnold Mnster and Richard Weber, Frankfurt am Main,
Germany, assignors to Metailgesellschaft Aktiengeseilschaft, Frankfurt am Main, Germany, a corporation o Germany Cil Gear Wheels, such as spur gears, bevel gears, pinions, worms and worm wheels for heavy duty, and sprockets are subjected to particularly high stresses because the supporting areas of the flanks are very small and the build-up of a lubricating film is impaired by the pressures prevailing. For this reason the wear at the ilanks is very high and it is endeavored to provide a high Wear resistance of the mating surfaces by a proper selection of the material and design and to separate the mating surfaces,
e. g., by the use of special lubricants.
It has been found that a substantial improvement in the wear resistance of the tooth iianks can be achieved by providing at least these most highly stressed parts of the gear wheels with a coating of a hard nitride, hard boride and/or hard silicide of the metals of groups 3 to 6 of the periodic system, which coating may contain also hard carbides of metals of groups 3 to 6 of the periodic system, preferably in a homogeneous form, as mixed crystals with the other hard substances, or in a heterogeneous form. The hard compounds may be applied as mixed layers, e. g. of mixed crystals, or in separate layers. Such layers may be applied on the steels preferred for gear Wheels, as well as on other materials, such as bronzes. The wearing qualities of the base material used are not critical because the coating applied according to the invention has a very high wear resistance and possesses the strength and coherence necessary to resist impacts.
The coating is preferably applied out of the gaseous phase.
Coatings of titanium nitride may be precipitated directly on the surface of the workpiece, e. g., by the following reaction:
Suitable hard nitrides include in addition to titanium nitride the nitrides of zirconium, hafnium, vanadium, columbium and tantalum.
To produce coatings consisting of silicides the metal which is to form the silicide may be precipitated rst on the surface to be coated, e. g., according to the following reaction:
l2,836,531: Patented May 27, 1958 Then the metal may be converted to its silicide by a known method, e. g., according to the following reaction:
Ti+SC1i1+2H2=titanium silicide-l-4HC1 (3) mixed-crystal coating of tantalum carbide and tantalumv nitride may be produced by precipitating tantalum from a mixture of hydrogen and tantalum pentachloride vapor, and transforming said tantalum to a mixture of tantalum carbide and tantalum nitride by annealing in a mixture of nitrogen and hydrocarbons. Thus a hard coating is obtained which is able to follow a deformation of the ground material.
A heterogeneous coating consisting of a layer of titanium nitride and a layer of titanium carbide may be applied by coating the workpiece with titanium nitride rst, according to Reaction l. By reacting a gas mixture consisting of titanium tetrachloride, hydrogen, and hydrocarbons such as methane, another layer consisting of titanium carbide is precipitated on said titanium nitride layer.
The drawing shows a gear wheel 1 the teeth of which have a coating 2 of titanium nitride.
What is claimed is:
l. A gear member having a hard coating on its mating surface portions consisting of a coating comprising at least one compound selected from the group consisting of titanium nitride, titanium silicide and titanium boride deposited by a gas phase reaction.
2. A gear member having a hard coating on its mating surface portions consisting of a coating comprising titanium nitride deposited by a gas phase reaction.
3. A steel gear member having a hard coating on its v mating surface portions consisting of a coating comprising titanium nitride deposited by a gas phase reaction.
4. A bronze gear member having a hard coating on its mating surface portions consisting of a coating comprising titanium nitride deposited by a gas phase reaction.
