Either the metal is plated as an alloy, or the metals serving as alloy components are plated in layers and then subjected to thermal diffusion treatment to form an alloy.

現状である。 For example, in the case of alloy plating by simultaneous electrodeposition, as shown in Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 54-29843, a method has been established to conduct a non-destructive and accurate analysis after complete alloy plating, and this method can be used in the actual process. However, in alloy plating obtained by the latter thermal diffusion method, the plating current is affected by changes in the concentration of the plating solution, changes in the plating voltage, the state of wear and tear on the electrode rods, the condition of the electrode plates, etc. efficiency and spreading voltage,
Due to changes in current, etc., the amount of plating deposited, the plating alloy composition ratio (% by weight of various metals constituting the alloy plating), and the plating alloy composition gradient unique to the heat diffusion alloy plating method (the alloy composition ratio changes from the inner layer of the plating layer to the plating layer) (continuous changes from the middle layer to the surface layer), etc., and it is impossible to analyze with high accuracy using the conventional method of analyzing after complete alloy plating. At present, it is extremely difficult to obtain alloy plating with high precision and uniformly in the longitudinal direction of a linear body, and it has not yet been put to practical use.

精度は極めて厳しいものがある。 By the way, for linear bodies used to reinforce rubber in automobile tires, conveyor belts, etc., the most important qualities are required to have strength as well as adhesion to the rubber, and the precision required for this type of alloy plating is There are some extremely tough ones.

妙に変化するものである。 In other words, when alloy plating is applied to the above-mentioned linear bodies, the amount of plating deposited and the composite composition ratio of plating (for example, the weight ratio of Cu and Zn) are strictly limited due to the influence of adhesion with the rubber, and the value also depends on the type of rubber. It changes slightly depending on the situation.

た。 Furthermore, these precisions greatly affect the wire drawability in the wire drawing process performed after alloy plating.
In particular, the plating alloy composition ratio is a problem related to wire breakage in the wire drawing process. Furthermore, in recent years, due to pollution problems, a method of alloy plating by diffusion using a cyanide bath or the like has become more popular than a method of performing alloy plating by simultaneous electrodeposition.

ている。 In response to these demands, the conventional method of obtaining the desired plating coating amount and plating alloy composition ratio with high precision and uniformity in the longitudinal direction of the linear object is to A part of the body is cut out for analysis, and the cut sample is used for various analyzes such as atomic absorption spectrometry or fluorescent X-ray method. Based on the analysis results, plating tanks for various metal plating are prepared. By modifying the plating current value in , an alloy plating having the desired plating amount and plating alloy composition ratio is obtained.

う欠点があつた。 However, in order to continuously obtain linear bodies with uniform alloy plating accuracy using the above method, it is sufficient to sample and analyze as much as possible, but it is not practical when continuity is required, such as with linear bodies. The drawback was that it was not.
また、上述の従来の方法によつて、例えばCu

は不可避であつた。 Moreover, by the above-mentioned conventional method, for example, Cu
Even if we try to manufacture brass-plated steel wire with a concentration of 65%, the limit is to keep it to 62-68% at most.
It was inevitable that there would be a ±3% variation in Cu concentration.

As shown in Figure 4. In this figure, the rubber attached after the adhesion test refers to the amount of rubber attached to the surface of the steel wire after drawing the brass-plated steel wire by heat diffusion and leaving it at 80℃ x 95% RH for two weeks. represent.

せる線状体を生産できないことがわかる。 As is clear from the above figure, adhesion with rubber and wire drawability are in a contradictory relationship, and the fact that the conventional method has a variation of ±3% in Cu concentration means that wires with good alloy plating accuracy It can be seen that it is not possible to produce a linear body that satisfies both quality and productivity.

重要な課題になつている。 In this way, in the heat diffusion alloy plating method for linear bodies, it is important today to control the amount of plating deposited and the plating alloy composition ratio to reduce the variation.
It has become an important issue.

キ方法を提供する。(Means for Solving the Problems) The present invention has been made to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks, and consists of continuously applying alloy plating to a rubber reinforcing linear body by thermal diffusion, with the thickness of the plating and alloy composition ratio changing. The purpose is to accurately apply the plating layer to the desired value, and rather than analyzing the plating thickness after alloying or the alloy composition ratio, it is based on the thickness of the plating layer of each metal before alloying, Alternatively, the coating weight ratio of each metal can be measured without stopping operation in the layer state before thermal diffusion, and the measurement results can be fed back to each plating process, and the plating conditions such as the plating current can be adjusted to improve accuracy. Provided is a method for plating a rubber reinforcing wire with a heat diffusion alloy to obtain an alloy plating.

いて大きな誤差を生じるためである。(Function) The reason why the analysis is performed at the position of the two-layer plating before thermal diffusion, that is, before the plating is alloyed, is because when alloying occurs by thermal diffusion, depending on the method of applying heat, If the alloy layer is not uniform from the inner layer to the surface layer of the plating layer, that is, if the alloy composition ratio is not uniform from the inner layer to the intermediate layer of the plating layer,
In most cases, the difference occurs in the surface layer (so-called composition gradient), and the amount of heating for diffusion is unstable, or the amount of heating is intentionally changed (when the Cu concentration is kept constant). The relationship between the amount of diffusion heating, adhesion to rubber, and wire drawability is explained in the fifth
As shown in the figure. In this figure, the rubber attached after the adhesion test refers to the rubber that adheres to the surface of the steel wire after drawing the brass-plated steel wire with a Cu concentration of 65% and leaving it at 80℃ x 95%RH for 2 weeks. represents the amount of Therefore, the amount of diffusion heat may be changed depending on wire drawability or adhesiveness. ), if the above phenomenon occurs, a large error will occur in the measurement results, especially in the alloy composition ratio, when measuring the alloy plating layer by thermal diffusion in fluorescent X-ray analysis.

平均は65%)とすることがある。 For example, when brass-plated steel wire is used, if the linear object is directly measured using fluorescent X-ray analysis, several types of brass-plated steel wire with known thickness and alloy composition must be used. The ratio of the secondary X-ray intensities from Cu, Zn in the brass plating and the Fe of the underlying steel wire, that is, the thickness, is as follows: Icu/IFe+Izn/IFe Icu: Secondary X-rays from Cu Intensity (cps) Izn: Secondary X-ray intensity from Zn (cps) IFe: Secondary X-ray intensity from Fe (cps) (cps) = Count per second In terms of composition ratio, Icu/(Icu+Izn) and their A calibration curve is created as shown in Figure 2 A and B from the actual plating thickness and composition ratio of concentration). However, in actual heat-diffusion brass-plated steel wire, a difference in composition ratio, that is, concentration of Cu-Zn, may occur inside the plating layer as described above. The Cu composition ratio is sometimes set to 61%, 65%, 69%, etc. (the average composition ratio is 65%).

比と異なる分析結果値となつてしまう。 In this case, due to the characteristics of fluorescent X-ray measurement, the secondary X-rays generated from the entire plating layer are
As shown in Figure 3 (c), the more secondary X-rays generated from the inner layer of the mesh are absorbed and attenuated within the mesh before reaching the detector, and the amount of secondary X-rays that are the information source are In this case, for example, the Cu composition ratio is detected as 63%, which results in an analysis result value that differs from the actual Cu composition ratio.

はほとんど見られないのである。 However, the above phenomenon is hardly observed in the case of brass plating, where the Cu-Zn concentration is completely uniform in each part of the plating layer, such as in conventional simultaneous electrodeposition alloy plating.

により測定したものである。 Figure 3 shows that the degree of thermal diffusion was varied by plating Cu as the first layer and Zn as the second layer on the steel wire. The composition ratio in the case of X-ray analysis is shown as an example, and (a) is measured by changing the amount of heating during diffusion and using an energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence analyzer.

bは中間状態の熱量(例えば450℃×4秒)の場
合である。 For example, when the amount of heating to the wire surface for thermal diffusion is small (e.g. 400°C x 4 seconds) as in case a,
Due to insufficient diffusion, Cu is present in the surface layer of the plating layer.
Brass has a low composition ratio and a high Cu composition ratio in the intermediate layer and inner layer. , due to the influence of the concentration gradient of this Cu composition ratio, the analysis result has an error of about 63%. Furthermore, in the case of c, uniform diffusion can be obtained with a sufficient amount of heat (for example, 500° C. x 4 seconds), resulting in an analysis result that is almost close to the actual value. In addition,
b is a case of an intermediate state of heat (for example, 450° C. x 4 seconds).

ことを示す図である。 When such plating of a, b, and c is measured using an X-ray diffraction device, the appearance of β phase becomes larger in brass, which requires less heat for diffusion, and the Cu composition ratio in the surface layer of the alloy plating layer is lower. It confirms that it will happen.
FIG. 3B is a diagram showing changes in the α and β phases of a, b, and c as measured by an X-ray analyzer.

とが可能となる。 As described above, the plating method of the present invention uses energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence analysis before the thermal diffusion process.
Since analytical measurements are being performed, the influence of compositional gradients is eliminated, and attenuation in X-ray analysis occurs in the same way as described above, but since the attenuation is within the plating of Cu alone and Zn alone, the attenuation rate can be easily calculated in advance. , This makes it possible to perform highly accurate analytical measurements.

が可能となり、その精度も良好となる。 That is, in the present invention, in order to eliminate measurement errors caused by such fluctuations in the diffusion state, the above-mentioned calibration curve is created for samples for which the thickness of the plating in each layer state before thermal diffusion and the metal ratio of each are known. However, we succeeded in avoiding this error by measuring the unknown sample before thermal diffusion during actual continuous operation. Further, if it is placed after the drying device in the analyzer as shown in FIG. 1, damage to the analyzer due to moisture adhering to the linear body can be prevented. In addition, if the analyzer is installed so that the X-ray generating tube 13 of the analyzer, the detector, and the linear object travel in the same plane, X-rays can be detected more efficiently and the accuracy can be improved. .

のである。(Effects of the Invention) When the method of the present invention is used, fluctuations in the plating layer state of the rubber reinforcing linear body during continuous production are analyzed and corrected using an energy dispersive fluorescent X-ray analyzer and a microcomputer. Corrected data is fed back to the control unit, and the plating current is automatically adjusted from time to time to perform metal plating and thermal diffusion, resulting in highly accurate plating with very little variation in the plating amount and plating alloy composition ratio. Good alloy plating can be applied almost uniformly in the longitudinal direction of the linear body. Therefore, from the viewpoint of adhesion to rubber, precision of plating thickness and plating alloy composition ratio is strictly required, and various combinations of the above values are required depending on the type of rubber, application, etc. for automobile tire cords. Ideal for manufacturing steel wire. Furthermore, in the past, a great deal of effort had to be put into plating bath management, current control, diffusion heat control, various analyses, etc., and the operating efficiency of alloy-plated linear bodies was also poor.
It has excellent effects such as significant reduction and improvement.
