Abstract

PURPOSE:To eliminate mechanical working and to reduce the cost by dividing a fitting member made of an iron-base solid phase material contg. a prescribed percentage of copper into two half bodies each having a grooved edge, compacting the bodies, and forming an oil feeding hole. CONSTITUTION:A fitting member 4 made of an iron-base solid phase material contg. 17-35wt% copper is divided into half bodies 4a, 4b each having a grooved edge, and the bodies are separately compacted. The bodies 4a, 4b are combined so that the grooves coincide with each other to form an oil feeding hole 6, and they are fitted to a hollow shaft 2 and joined. The hole 6 is made to communicate with an oil feeding hole 6 in the shaft 6. The bodies 4a, 4b are then sintered and copper is infiltrated to unite the member 4 and the shaft 2 to one body.

According to the method of the present invention, the camshaft is manufactured according to the following steps. As shown in Figures 2 to 5,
The powder of the sintered alloy for manufacturing parts containing Cu is compacted into a predetermined part shape (journal shape in the figure), but at this time, the part 4 is formed into two halves 4a and 4b, Each half-hole 4a, 4b is compacted to have a semi-cylindrical oil supply hole 6 (or 5) on one end face. The compression direction is AA' or BB' as indicated by the arrows in FIGS. 2 and 5. Third
The figure is a hemostatic diagram of FIG. 2 viewed from direction A, and FIG. 4 is a front view of FIG. 5 viewed from direction B. An oil supply hole is previously formed in the hollow shaft at a predetermined position corresponding to the oil supply hole of the component. The hollow shaft is usually made of steel. Next, as shown in FIG. 6, the oil supply holes 6, 4a, 4b,
The components 4 are assembled so that they are in precise contact with each other, and the oil supply holes 6 of the integrated component 4 are in communication with the steel hollow shaft 2, which has a separate oil supply hole formed therein. At this time, in order to fix the relative position of the component and the hollow shaft, a copper pipe may be inserted into the oil supply hole so as to extend from near the sliding surface of the component to near the inner peripheral surface of the hollow shaft. By sintering the camshaft in this way at a predetermined sintering temperature, the parts become stronger, and the Cu melting and leaching from the green compact is absorbed into the gaps between semi-dead parts and between the parts and the hollow shaft. It enters the gap and solidifies,
The parts and the hollow shaft are integrally connected.

The sintered alloy powder is an iron-based solid phase sintered material containing 17 to 35% by weight of Cu. Copper is contained in the solid phase sintered material in the form of pure copper or copper alloy, but in any case, the copper content must be within the above range, and if the copper content is 17
If it is less than 3% by weight, the connection between the parts and the hollow shaft will be insufficient, resulting in
Even if it is contained in excess of 5%, it does not contribute much to binding,
This increases costs and is economically disadvantageous.

In addition, the solid phase sintered material contains C, but the preferable content is 0.

If the carbon content is less than 0.5% by weight, ferrite content increases and wear resistance decreases, while if the carbon content exceeds 1.5% by weight, carbides become excessive and workability is impaired. It is also preferable to improve strength and wear resistance by incorporating Mn in an amount of 0.5% or less.

In the present invention, it is necessary to appropriately determine the porosity of the sintered material because Cu diffuses and moves by sintering the solid phase sintered material after fitting it into the hollow shaft. is 1
It is desirable that it be in the range of 0 to 40%. In addition, the sintering conditions need to be appropriately selected so that the Cu in the 1-phase sintered material is sufficiently melted and leached.
Sintering is carried out for 30-150 minutes at <0>C.

[Effects of the Invention] As described in L, the method of the present invention is different from the conventional method in which the oil supply hole of the assembly part is formed by machining, and the method of the present invention allows the oil supply hole to be formed without performing expensive machining. Since it can be formed, it has the excellent effect of significantly reducing the manufacturing cost of the camshaft. Furthermore, since copper is used extensively to assemble not only the parts and the shaft, but also the parts when assembled in half, the strength and reliability of the joint is high.
