As described above, since the conventional aluminum bearing is made of one material, the characteristics of the conventional aluminum bearing are determined by the selected material, and the aluminum alloy with high strength and low Sn content is used. If it does, seizure is likely to occur if it is left as it is, and in order to prevent this, extra steps such as surface layer plating and quenching of the shaft are required, which is costly. On the other hand, when an aluminum alloy having a high Sn content and good seizure resistance is adopted, damage such as cracking or peeling easily occurs due to insufficient strength.

That is, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, the present invention considers performing the surface modification processing of the metal layer using a laser which is a high-density heat energy source, and locally improves the surface modification processing. Utilizing the characteristics of a laser that can heat with concentrated energy, a soft material with a low melting point such as Sn or white metal is added to the part where the bearing metal is present, and it is alloyed with aluminum by laser irradiation to soften it. Part is made, and in another part the structure is made finer by the melting and rapid solidification action accompanying laser irradiation, or a hard material is added and dispersed in aluminum by laser irradiation to make a hard part. By the laser surface modification process, a soft portion and a hard portion are mixed in the same bearing.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, the soft parts 2 and the hard parts 3 are alternately arranged one by one in the half-divided aluminum bearing 1, but this arrangement may be varied such as a lattice. A method can be considered. The soft portion 2 is formed by alloying with the aluminum metal 7 by irradiating the portion to which the soft material 4 such as Sn or white metal is added with the laser light 6 collected by the condenser lens 5. As a method of adding the soft material 4, a method of placing a thin strip or supplying a powder material can be considered. The hard part 3 is made of aluminum metal 7
The effect depends on the material, but for aluminum metal material having a relatively high Sn content, the structure becomes fine-grained through the process of melting and rapid solidification by irradiation with laser light 6,
Hardness is expected to improve. On the other hand, for an aluminum metal material which has a relatively low Sn content and is considered to have a small effect (improvement in hardness), the aluminum metal 7 is melted by the irradiation of the laser beam 6 and Ag or Cd is added thereto. , And the hardness is improved by dispersing and strengthening the crystal grains.
