The operation of the present invention is as follows. C is 0.1
If the content is less than 5% by weight (hereinafter simply referred to as "%"), the strength of the gear core cannot be secured, and if the content exceeds 0.25%, the toughness of the gear decreases. If the content of Si exceeds 0.1%, the grain boundary oxide layer increases, and the strength near the grain boundaries decreases. Since the conventional case hardening steel contains 0.15 to 0.35% of Si, the above-described cracks are easily generated. Although Mn improves the hardenability, hardenability cannot be secured at a content of less than 0.2%, and a grain boundary oxide layer tends to increase at a content of more than 0.8%. If P is contained in an amount exceeding 0.015%, it has a grain boundary bending effect, and tends to embrittle the grain boundary. S forms a malleable compound like Mn, reduces the impact value in the lateral direction, and improves machinability. However, if the content is less than 0.010%, machinability cannot be secured.
If the content exceeds 0.015%, the toughness decreases.
If the Ni content is less than 0.4%, the intragranular strength cannot be ensured, and if the Ni content exceeds 0.6%, the machinability decreases. If the content of Cr is less than 0.2%, hardenability cannot be ensured, and if the content exceeds 0.8%, the grain boundary oxide layer tends to increase. Mo has the effect of suppressing the grain boundary bending effect of P and improving the grain boundary strength, and also has the effect of suppressing the formation of an incompletely quenched structure. However, when the content exceeds 1.0%, the effect saturates. If the content of Al is less than 0.010%, the refinement of the crystal grains cannot be secured, and if the content exceeds 0.05%, the effect is saturated. Refining the crystal grains increases the crack propagation resistance, and is effective in improving the toughness of the carburized layer. N has a crystal grain refining effect like Al, but 0.005%.
%, The above effect cannot be secured.
If the content exceeds%, the effect is saturated. Nb has a crystal grain refining effect similarly to Al, but the above effect cannot be secured if the content is less than 0.02%, and the effect is saturated if the content exceeds 0.5%. O content exceeding 0.002% causes fatigue fracture due to formation of alumina inclusions.

EXAMPLES Steels having the alloy components shown in Table 1 were melted. After rolling and normalizing, it was processed into a test piece. Carburizing, quenching and tempering of the test piece were performed under the following conditions. Carburization and diffusion were carried out at 910 ° C. using propane gas as a carbon source, and then kept at 830 ° C. for 30 minutes and then oil-cooled. The test piece treated in this way was further tempered at 160 ° C. for 2 hours and then air-cooled.

The steels A and B of the present invention have good fatigue strength and impact strength, and also have a hardness after normalizing of N.
i Since the value is almost the same as that of the unadded steel, the machinability hardly decreases. Comparative steels C and D are conventional case hardened steels, but because Si is excessive, grain boundary oxidation is remarkably recognized, and particularly, impact strength is significantly reduced as compared with other steels. The comparative steels of E and H have excessive Ni, and have good impact values and the like, but their machinability is greatly reduced. Since the comparative steels of F and G have too low Ni and Mo, respectively, low values of fatigue strength and impact strength are recognized.
