Gear manufacturing by carburizing and quenching is performed as shown in FIG. 4, in which case-hardening steel (alloy steel) such as chrome steel (SCr420) is hot forged in a state of being heated to, for example, 1250 ° C. After molding, natural air cooling (cooling) to reduce the hardness, the gear part is formed by mechanical cutting, carburized and quenched by batch processing, and then polished and shipped as a product.

This carburizing and quenching is carried out, for example, by heating in a carburizing atmosphere maintained at 900 ° C. for 90 minutes for carburizing, and for 90 minutes to diffuse carbon, at a temperature of 140 ° C. with the carburizing atmosphere removed. After heating and quenching, heating is performed at a relatively low temperature such as 250 ° C. for 60 minutes for tempering, and then allowed to cool.
These heat treatments are batch treatments in which a predetermined number of gear materials are put in a tray and put in a carburizing furnace all at once.

More specifically, the problem of the above batch processing will be described. It is necessary to store a certain amount of gear material to be processed before the quenching work, and it is impossible to unify the processing line, resulting in a large operating cost. In addition, it is necessary to control the temperature of the heating furnace, and it is necessary to keep the temperature inside the furnace constant during the rest to prepare for restarting the operation. The thermal efficiency is poor, and the trays that are used repeatedly need to be replaced according to wear. There is such a thing.

Medium carbon steel (S45 to 55C) is used as a raw material, and the whole is formed by hot forging while being heated to, for example, 1250 ° C. The hardness is reduced by natural air cooling (cooling), and the gear part is made by mechanical cutting (tooth cutting). Further, quenching and tempering treatment is performed as a pretreatment for induction hardening. For example, this is heated at a temperature of 890 ° C. for 90 minutes and quenched at 140 ° C.
After heating at the temperature of 90 minutes, it is left to cool and temper. After the pre-heat treatment, a portion such as a gear portion where hardness is required is subjected to induction hardening such as high-frequency heating by applying a high frequency of 210 kHz for 0.5 seconds and then water quenching, followed by polishing to obtain a product.
