Definitions
- the present invention relates to a needle bearing and a shaft suitable for use in a compressor for a car air conditioner, a planetary gear mechanism for an automatic transmission, and the like.
- variable displacement compressor is known as one type of a compressor for a car air conditioner (also referred to as a car cooler compressor) (see Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2002-266754).
- a variable displacement compressor has a housing in which a drive shaft is rotatably supported by a radial bearing, and a swash plate (see 25a in FIG. 1 in the above publication) is inclined with respect to the drive shaft.
- An oscillating plate (refer to 49 in FIG. 1 of the above-mentioned publication) is slidably attached to the swash plate.
- a thrust bearing (see 50 in FIG. 1 of the above-mentioned publication) is arranged between the swash plate and the swing plate.
- One end of a plurality of piston rods is attached to the rocking plate at equal intervals in the circumferential direction, and the other end of the piston rod is connected to the piston.
- the piston is provided so as to slide inside a cylinder provided in the housing, and compresses and discharges the refrigerant gas flowing into the pore of the cylinder. Specifically, when the shaft of the compressor rotates, the rocking plate moves around the intersection of the center line of the shaft and the center of the rocking plate as a fulcrum, thereby moving together with the tip of the rocking plate. The piston moves in the bearing direction of the compressor.
- a typical air-conditioning compressor is driven to rotate by the vehicle's running engine, and transmits the power of the crank rotation to the drive shaft via a belt via an electromagnetic clutch via the electromagnetic clutch.
- the numbers range from low speeds, such as idling, to high speeds, such as during acceleration, and the capacity of the compressor varies as needed. Therefore, general compressors for car air conditioners are operated under complicated combinations of rotation speed and load. Since it is used in such an environment, thrust needle bearings and radial needle bearings used in general compressors for car air conditioners also have a wide range from high-speed to low-speed rotation, and from no-load to heavy-load. It will work under the conditions.
- Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2002-3646448 discloses that a rolling element, an outer ring and an inner ring of a rolling bearing are provided with a nitride layer having a nitrogen concentration of 0.2 to 0.8%. It is described that having a surface hardness of Pickers hardness Hv1200 to 1500 has an effect of suppressing wear of a rolling bearing. However, such rolling bearings are These are different from the concept of the present invention because they are used under moderate lubrication conditions as compared with compressors of power air conditioners.
- the present invention has been made in view of the above-described problems, and has a bearing and a shaft capable of reducing abrasion of a contact portion, and a power and air conditioner compressor and an automatic transmission using the same. It is intended to provide a planetary gear mechanism. Disclosure of the invention
- the twenty-first bearing according to the second aspect of the present invention has a roller and a bearing ring, and at least one of the parts is subjected to superfinishing to have a surface roughness of Ra 0 .lm or less. It is characterized by having done.
- the surface of at least one of the rollers, the bearing ring, and the cage is controlled to have a nitrogen concentration of 0.3% by weight by a carbonitriding process or the like.
- a carbonitriding process or the like When tempering is added, the tempering resistance is increased, the strength at high temperatures is increased, the wear resistance is improved, and a large amount of residual austenite, which is effective in preventing indentation origin type exfoliation, is present in the very surface layer. it can. If the surface nitrogen concentration is less than 0.3% by weight, the strength at high temperatures is reduced and the wear resistance is reduced. Therefore, the lower limit was set to 0.3% by weight.
- the upper limit is 0.8% by weight. It is preferable that As a method for forming the nitrided layer (layer having an appropriate nitrogen concentration and hardness), a liquid nitriding treatment using a salt bath, a gas nitriding treatment, or an ion nitriding treatment may be mentioned. Among these, the ion nitriding treatment is performed at a relatively high treatment temperature, and it is difficult to obtain a sufficient hardness of the base even in consideration of the heat resistance of the base material. May be difficult to form. Therefore, it is preferable to use liquid nitriding or gas nitriding.
- the preferred temperature of the nitriding treatment is 480 ° C. or less.
- the nitride layer may have a fragile compound layer (pseudo-ceramic layer composed of a single phase of ⁇ phase or ⁇ phase) formed on its outermost surface in the form of a film, especially when the processing temperature is high. . For this reason,
- the nitriding temperature is more preferably set at 460 ° C or lower.
- the present invention provides a method according to the present invention, wherein the hardness of the surface of the at least one part is Vickers hardness Hv 653 to 832.
- the rolling element, the outer ring or the inner ring described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2000-3666448 has a surface hardness of Pickers hardness Hv1200 to 150, Wear is suppressed.
- the lubrication conditions are more stringent, and contact between metals often causes premature wear due to surface peeling. Therefore, in the present invention, the hardness of the surface of the at least one component is determined by the picker hardness Hv6.
- the toughness is increased, and the aggressiveness of the mating member is suppressed, thereby suppressing early wear.
- the needle bearing according to the second aspect of the present invention is characterized in that at least one of the bearing rings is super-finished to reduce the surface roughness to R a O .1 m or less, thereby causing abnormal wear. Can be suppressed.
- the roller for the needle bearing used in the planetary gear mechanism for the 25 transmission is formed by cutting the wire material, heat-treating, and grinding the outer diameter. Roughness was properly finished mainly by grinding and barrel processing. However, when such rollers are used, very hard particles such as alumina and silica which are barrel processing media may remain on the rolling surfaces of the rollers. If a 21-dollar bearing with a roller or a roller alone is used for a device with extremely severe lubrication, such as a compressor for a car air conditioner or a planetary gear mechanism for an automatic transmission, the effect of hard particles causes the raceway surface and the If the rolling contact surface is abnormally worn, some trouble may occur.
- the present invention has been made in view of the above-described problems, and reduces the presence of barrel media as a hard foreign material such as alumina between the rollers and the race while securing the roughness of the race.
- surface grinding or grinding + barreling
- super finishing is performed as the final step, and the surface roughness is reduced to R a O .1 m or less.
- the present invention by using super-finishing processing, it is possible to realize processing capable of eliminating barrel media that is a cause of residual hard foreign matter, so that roughness is significantly improved and roller crowning is simultaneously performed. This has the advantage of being cost-effective for barrel processing. Further, by setting the surface roughness Ra to 0.1 m or less, the aggressiveness to the surface of the other member in contact with the surface of the nitrided layer when carbonitriding is performed can be reduced.
- At least one of the races is subjected to super-finishing to reduce the surface roughness to R a O .01 m or more and 0.04 or less, thereby further improving the above-described effects.
