DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a high-frequency coil for movable hardening of the inner surface of a cylindrical body having uneven thickness portions, such as a tripod housing member.

The housing member of the tripod type universal joint, which is a typical example of a cylindrical body having unequal wall thickness, has a first
As shown in the figure, the cross-sectional wall thickness shape differs significantly depending on the part.

That is, among the tripod housing members 1,
The connection part 3 connecting the pair of rolling surfaces 2a of the roller groove 2 on which a spherical roller (not shown) rolls has the thinnest thickness, and the partition part 4 between the roller groove 2 and the adjacent roller groove 2 has the following: It is the thickest part.

When the inner surface of the tripod housing member 1 having such unequal wall thickness is hardened by a high-frequency heating method, high-frequency waves are placed correspondingly at approximately constant intervals along each inner surface of the tripod housing member 1 as shown in FIG. It is conceivable to use the coil 5a. However, in induction hardening, generally the convex portions are easily heated and the concave portions are difficult to heat, so the partitioned portion 4 which is the thickest part
Although a quench-hardened layer can be obtained on the pair of rolling surfaces 2a of the roller groove 2 and the connecting portion 3, a quench-hardened layer cannot be obtained on the pair of rolling surfaces 2a of the roller groove 2 and the connecting portion 3. That is, in heating by the high-frequency coil 5a shown in FIG. 1, the electrical heat input is spent on the thickest section 4, making it difficult to heat the rolling surface 2a and the connecting section 3. Note that if an excessive current is supplied to the high-frequency coil 5a, a hardened layer can also be formed on the rolling surface 2a and the connecting portion 3, but on the other hand, the partitioned portion 4 becomes overheated, Thermal balance becomes uneven and large deformations occur on the inner surface of the tripod housing member 1.

Therefore, as a high-frequency coil for forming a hardened layer on the rolling surface 2a, as shown in FIG.
A high-frequency coil 5b that is located far away from the center is considered. This high frequency coil 5b is designed to disperse electrical heat input to the rolling surface 2a and the connecting portion 3 by providing a large distance between the partition portion 4 and the heating conductor. However, this high frequency coil 5
When induction heating is performed in step b, the thickness of the hardened layer of the partitioned portion 4 becomes thinner, but only a slight hardening occurs on the rolling surface 2a, and the connecting portion 3, which is the thinnest part, is hardened over the entire thickness ( This results in a hardened state). In this case, the corner part 6 of the partition 4 is heated, and the electrical heat input is spent in the partition 4, and on the contrary, it becomes difficult to heat the thin part of the rolling surface 2a, and eventually the rolling Only the corner portion 6 of the surface 2a and its vicinity are likely to be hardened.

Therefore, since the above-mentioned high-frequency coil 5b cannot uniformly heat the inner surface of the tripod housing member 1, large shrinkage deformation occurs on the inner surface due to heat balance. In addition, since the hardness changes rapidly at the boundary 7 between the hardened and unhardened parts of the rolling surface 2a,
Cracks may occur in this part due to stress concentration, and there is a drawback that fatigue strength is insufficient.

Note that cooling the outer surface 3a of the connecting portion 3 may be considered as a method of preventing the hardening state caused by overheating, but it is difficult to uniformly harden the inner surface by simply cooling the outer circumferential surface 3a. is the actual situation.

In order to eliminate the various drawbacks mentioned above, to minimize heat treatment deformation, and to obtain a tripod housing member 1 with no cracking and strong fatigue strength, the pair of rolling surfaces 2a of the roller groove 2, Connection part 3
In addition to uniformly hardening the (thinnest wall part) and partition part 4 (thickest wall part), the connection part 3 is not in a deep hardening state and the thickness of the hardened layer is adjusted to the rolling surface. Ideally, it should be thinner than the thickness of the quench hardened layer 2a. That is, it is desirable to obtain a hardened layer pattern as shown in FIG.

Further, the present invention provides a method for forming a pair of rising portions on the heating conductor corresponding to the thinnest portion of the inner surface of the cylindrical body having uneven wall thickness portions, and arranging these portions close to each other.
Since currents are passed through the rising portions in opposite directions, the electromagnetic effects of the rising portions cancel each other out, making it easy to harden without using any special cooling means. It becomes possible to obtain a quenched hardened layer in the thinnest part that is thinner than in the thickest part. Therefore, it is possible to form an ideal hardened layer pattern over the entire inner surface of the cylindrical body, preventing shrinkage and deformation, and there is no boundary between the non-hardened and hardened parts, so there is no cracking. It can prevent the occurrence of cracks and significantly improve fatigue strength.
