It is also considered that the adhesion between the cylinder head 12 and the metal film is improved due to the anchor effect caused by the second raw material powder digging into the cylinder head 12.
- the first raw material powder collides with the second raw material powder, a part of the kinetic energy is converted into thermal energy, or a part of the first raw material powder is plastically deformed. It is also considered that the heat causes precipitation hardening in a part of the precipitation hardening type copper alloy used as the first raw material powder to be further promoted.

More specifically, in this coating step S3, as shown in FIG. 6C, the raw material powder P is an annular valve seat while keeping the annular valve seat portion 16c and the nozzle 23d of the spray gun 23 at a constant distance in the same posture. While fixing the cylinder head rough material 3 so that it can be sprayed on the entire circumference of the portion 16c, the spray gun 23 is rotated.
- FIG. 6C is a cross-sectional view showing a state in which the valve seat film 16b is formed in the intake port 16 of FIG. 6B.
- the tip of the nozzle 23d of the spray gun 23 is held by the hand of the industrial robot above the cylinder head 12 fixed to the base.
- the base or the industrial robot sets the position of the cylinder head 12 or the spray gun 23 so that the central axis Z of the intake port 16 on which the valve seat film 16b is formed is vertical and overlaps with the rotation axis of the spray gun 23. do.
- the spray gun 23 is rotated around the axis of rotation while spraying the raw material powder P from the nozzle 23d onto the annular valve seat portion 16c to form a film on the entire circumference of the annular valve seat portion 16c.
- the nozzle 23d introduces the refrigerant supplied from the refrigerant circulation circuit 27 into the flow path from the refrigerant introduction unit 23e.
- the refrigerant cools the nozzle 23d while flowing from the front end side to the rear end side of the flow path formed inside the nozzle 23d.
- the refrigerant that has flowed to the rear end side of the flow path is discharged from the flow path by the refrigerant discharge unit 23f and is recovered.
- valve seat films 16b and 17b are formed on all the intake ports 16 and the exhaust ports 17 of the cylinder head rough material 3.
- FIG. 11 is a cross-sectional view showing the relationship between the film thickness of the valve seat film 16b of the cylinder head 12 according to the present invention and the shearing force due to the combustion pressure of the engine.
- the shearing force (diagonal arrow) due to the combustion pressure (white arrow) generated by the combustion chamber 15 acts toward the outside of the valve seat film 16b, and the stress is concentrated on the edge portion.
- the annular valve seat portion 16c has a groove shape and, as a result, the film thickness W of the valve seat film 16b is large
- the shearing force due to the combustion pressure is mainly the annular valve seat portion 16c. It acts on the side surfaces G2 and G2 of the groove shape.
- the groove-shaped side surfaces G2 and G2 cause this. Can receive.
- the film thickness W of the valve seat film 16b is not particularly limited, but the film thickness W suitable for the groove shape of the annular valve seat portion 16c according to the present embodiment is preferably formed to be 300 ⁇ m to 1500 ⁇ m.
- valve seat films 16b and 17b, and the intake port 16 and the exhaust port 17 are finished.
- the surfaces of the valve seat films 16b and 17b are cut by milling using a ball end mill to shape the valve seat films 16b into a predetermined shape.
- a ball end mill is inserted into the intake port 16 from the opening 16a, and the inner peripheral surface of the intake port 16 on the opening 16a side is cut along the processing line PL shown in FIG. 6D. ..
- FIG. 6D is a cross-sectional view showing an intake port in which the valve seat membrane 16b is formed.
- the processing line PL has a range in which the excess film SF to which the raw material powder P is scattered and adhered to the intake port 16 is formed relatively thick, and more specifically, the excess film SF affects the intake performance of the intake port 16. It is a range that is formed thick enough to exert.
- FIG. 6E is a cross-sectional view showing the intake port 16 after the finishing process of FIG.
- the exhaust port 17 is formed by casting to form a small diameter portion in the exhaust port 17, cutting to form an annular valve seat portion, cold spraying the annular valve seat portion, and finishing. After that, the valve seat film 17b is formed. Therefore, detailed description of the procedure for forming the valve seat membrane 17b for the exhaust port 17 will be omitted.
- the cross-sectional shape of the annular valve seat portion 16c along the radial direction includes a flat bottom surface G1 and a pair of adjacent side surfaces G2. Since it is formed in a groove shape and the compressive residual stress of the metal film 5 acts on the pair of side surfaces G2 of the groove shape, it is possible to manufacture a cylinder head 12 having a valve seat film 16b having excellent adhesion and high strength. can.
- the compressive residual stress of the metal film 5 acting on the groove-shaped side surfaces G2 and G2 of the annular valve seat portion 16c is due to the tapping input from the valve. Since it opposes the impact load, the impact load concentrated on the edge portion of the valve seat film 16b is reduced, and it is possible to prevent the valve seat film 16b from cracking or peeling off.
- the boundary surface GC between the flat bottom surface G1 and the side surface G2 and G2 in the groove shape of the annular valve seat portion 16c is formed into a gentle arc shape.
- the boundary surface GC between the flat bottom surface G1 and the side surface G2 and G2 in the groove shape of the annular valve seat portion 16c is formed into a gentle arc shape.
- the raw material powder P sprayed by the cold spray method adheres uniformly to the surface of the boundary surface GC, so that the adhesion of the valve seat film 16b formed on the annular valve seat portion 16c can be improved.
- the groove angle G ⁇ in this groove shape needs to be 30 ° ⁇ groove angle G ⁇ ⁇ 45 ° only on one side in the radial direction of the tool, and the other side is restricted during machining. It does not matter if it is outside this range because it does not receive.
- the thickness W of the valve seat film 16b is formed to be 300 ⁇ m to 1500 ⁇ m, and the combustion pressure tends to concentrate on the edge portion of the valve seat film 16b. Since the shearing force can be received by the groove-shaped side surfaces G2 and G2, it is possible to manufacture a cylinder head having a valve seat film 16b having higher strength.
