  • the number of hard particles refers to the number of 3.56 XI 0 _2 exposure 2 equivalents. 5 6
  • Tester Journal type baking test machine
  • Fig. 48 shows the seizure load measurement results.
  • the horizontal axis is the number of hard particles of the maximum size of the test material.
  • the test materials are shown in Fig. 48, divided into five groups from GA to GD according to the maximum particle size in the five ranges shown in Table 56. From this figure, the following facts become clear.
  • W Seizure load depends on the number of hard particles of the maximum size.] 5 Left and right. ( «) The seizure load increases with the number of hard particles of the maximum size. However, the seizure load of the test materials of the GA group was almost negligible, and the seizure loads of the other groups including hard particles having a large D size were significantly increased.
  • the present invention is limited to the case where there are five or more hard particles having a minimum of 5 micron ⁇ .
  • the measurement results are shown in Table 57 (2). From this, it can be seen that according to the present invention, the seizure load is improved and the fatigue strength is deteriorated by coarse hard particles. In Table 57 (1), the number of hard particles less than 5 micron was not measured.
  • the shaft of the mating material in the fatigue test is carbon steel for machine structural use (S55C :), and the material of the present invention is effective even when the carbon in the mating iron-based material is present as graphite. I understand.
  • Example of a test material containing manganese Example of a test material containing manganese.
