Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide a ball retainer which is excellent in heat-resistance, durabil ity and lubricating capability and light-weight by forming a sliding contact portion with a ball by material, the principal component of which is vitrified carbon. CONSTITUTION:Vitrified carbon to be used is obtained by hardening and burning thermosetting resin, and polyacrylonitrile-series, rayon-series, phenol-series or furan-series resin is used. it is desirable to use non-porous vitrified carbon which can be obtained by using thermosetting resin capable of containing water more than 20wt% in the state of an initial condensation product as raw material. The material is subjected to cutting work to make a ball retainer A for a rolling bearing. The ball retainer A is little rubbed with a steal ball, kept from wear, light-weight, excellent in heat-resistance and does not require application of a lubricant.

The term "whisker" as used herein refers to a needle-shaped crystal that grows by natural growth from a solid, vapor condensation, chemical reaction, unidirectional solidification of eutectic crystals, electrodeposition, etc., and is also called a whisker crystal. It is known that the thickness ranges from 0.05 μm or less to about 10 μm. The most important feature of whiskers is that they have extremely few dislocations and defects inside the crystal, and some have none at all. Therefore, the whisker strength is close to the ideal value for the crystal.

Although there are no particular regulations regarding the aspect ratio (ratio of thickness to length) of whiskers, generally speaking, the larger the aspect ratio, the greater the strength of the composite material containing the whiskers. In the glassy carbon composite material of the present invention, effects were obtained when whiskers with an aspect ratio of 10 or more, and even 50 or more were used.

The content of whiskers is preferably in the range of 0.005 to 0.2 in volume ratio to glassy carbon, and more preferably 0.005 to 0.2.
A range of 0.005 to 0.1 is desirable. In the case of this range, precision machinability, wear resistance, and friction coefficient are excellent. If the content of whiskers is low, no effect can be obtained from mixing. In addition, if the amount is too large, precision machinability decreases and the coefficient of friction becomes large.

These fillers are materials used as solid lubricants, and all have hexagonal crystal structures. For example, molybdenum disulfide forms an excellent lubricating film by forming folds during sliding, and exhibits an extremely low coefficient of friction when it adheres to metal surfaces. By incorporating such a solid lubricant, it can match the appropriate anti-friction properties of glassy carbon or its composite material, which has high wear resistance, and provide an appropriate source of solid lubricant, while also providing long-life durability. can be shown.

mm disk shape, Surface: Polished using polishing tape $6000, Pin: Made of 5UJ-2, 3/16 inch diameter steel ball, Load: 100 g load, Temperature: Room temperature inside the vacuum chamber. , Lubricating fluid: not used, degree of vacuum: 10-' level, rotation speed: 100 rpm. For comparison, the same measurements were performed using 5UJ-2.
