 従来の上記表面処理装置では、枠部材を導電性の材料で形成して、この枠部材で、被処理物の外周面及び環状被処理領域(周溝)に対して間隔を隔てて対向する環状の内周面を有する陰電極部材を構成してある(例えば、特許文献1参照)。
The conventional surface treatment apparatus is, for example, a positive electrode member that is electrically connected to a metal workpiece having a circumferential groove as an annular treatment region on the outer circumferential surface, and the outer circumferential surface and the circumferential groove. Electrolysis along the circumferential groove is performed by sealing a gap between the inner circumferential surface and a frame member having inner circumferential surfaces facing each other with a gap therebetween, and both sides of the outer circumferential surface sandwiching the circumferential groove. A non-conductive elastic sealing material capable of forming a liquid passage, a negative electrode member provided in the electrolyte passage, and an electrolyte flow means for flowing the electrolyte along the electrolyte passage. Yes.
The surface treatment apparatus forms an electrolyte passage along the annular treatment area on the outer peripheral surface of the object to be treated, and allows the electrolyte solution to flow along the electrolyte passage while, for example, anodizing. The surface treatment can be efficiently performed on the annular processing region.
In the conventional surface treatment apparatus, the frame member is formed of a conductive material, and the frame member is annularly opposed to the outer peripheral surface of the object to be processed and the annular treatment region (circumferential groove) with a space therebetween.

 上記表面処理装置は、表面処理時における陽電極部材と陰電極部材とに亘る通電により、電解液に溶解している陽イオン化し易い銅などの金属成分が陰電極部材の表面に析出して付着堆積し易い。
 従来の表面処理装置は、環状の内周面を有する陰電極部材を設けてあるために、析出金属が陰電極部材の内周面に全周に亘って均一に付着堆積し易く、堆積した析出金属によって電解液通路の通路断面積が狭められると電解液の円滑な通流が妨げられる。
 尚、枠部材が、被処理物の外周面及び環状被処理領域に対して間隔を隔てて対向する環状の内周面を有する陽電極部材を構成している場合は、電解液に溶解している陰イオン化し易い塩化物や硫化物などの非金属成分が陽電極部材の表面に析出して、同様の現象が生じる。
 電解液の温度は、電極反応で発生する熱により環状被処理領域の表面近傍で高くなり、電解液の円滑な通流が妨げられると、電解液の温度が上昇し易い。
 電解液の温度が上昇すると、例えばアルマイト被膜などの被膜を環状被処理領域に形成する表面処理において皮膜ヤケが生じ易くなる。すなわち、陽極酸化処理時に電流分布が不均一になり、或いは電流密度が過大になること等によって生じた、焼けたような外観を呈し易くなり、表面処理を高い電圧で能率良く繰り返し行うことができないおそれがある。
 本発明は上記実情に鑑みてなされたものであって、表面処理を高い電圧で能率良く繰り返し行うことができる表面処理装置を提供することを目的とする。
In the above surface treatment apparatus, due to energization between the positive electrode member and the negative electrode member at the time of the surface treatment, metal components such as copper which is easily cationized dissolved in the electrolytic solution are deposited on the surface of the negative electrode member. Easy to deposit.
Since the conventional surface treatment apparatus is provided with a negative electrode member having an annular inner peripheral surface, the deposited metal tends to adhere and deposit uniformly on the inner peripheral surface of the negative electrode member over the entire circumference, and the deposited precipitation When the passage cross-sectional area of the electrolyte passage is narrowed by the metal, the smooth flow of the electrolyte is hindered.
In addition, when the frame member constitutes a positive electrode member having an annular inner peripheral surface that is opposed to the outer peripheral surface of the object to be processed and the annular processing region with a gap, the frame member is dissolved in the electrolytic solution. The same phenomenon occurs when non-metallic components such as chlorides and sulfides that are easily anionized are deposited on the surface of the positive electrode member.
The temperature of the electrolytic solution is increased in the vicinity of the surface of the annular treatment region due to heat generated by the electrode reaction, and when the smooth flow of the electrolytic solution is hindered, the temperature of the electrolytic solution is likely to increase.
When the temperature of the electrolytic solution rises, for example, a coating burn is likely to occur in the surface treatment in which a coating such as an alumite coating is formed in the annular processing region. In other words, the current distribution becomes uneven during anodizing treatment, or a burnt appearance caused by excessive current density is likely to be exhibited, and the surface treatment cannot be efficiently and repeatedly performed at a high voltage. There is a fear.
The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide a surface treatment apparatus capable of efficiently and repeatedly performing surface treatment at a high voltage.
 本発明による表面処理装置の第1特徴構成は、環状被処理領域を外周面に有する金属製の被処理物に電気的に接続される陽電極部材及び陰電極部材の一方と、前記外周面及び前記環状被処理領域に対して間隔を隔てて対向する非導電性の内周面を備えた枠部材と、前記外周面のうち前記環状被処理領域を挟んだ両側夫々と前記内周面との隙間をシールすることにより、前記環状被処理領域に沿った電解液通路を形成可能な非導電性の弾性シール材と、先端部が前記電解液通路の中に入り込むように前記被処理物の側に向けて突設してある棒状の陽電極部材及び陰電極部材の他方と、前記電解液通路に沿って電解液を通流させる電解液通流手段とを備えた点にある。 The first characteristic configuration of the surface treatment apparatus according to the present invention includes one of a positive electrode member and a negative electrode member electrically connected to a metal workpiece having an annular treatment region on the outer peripheral surface, the outer peripheral surface, A frame member having a non-conductive inner peripheral surface facing the annular processing region with a space therebetween, and both sides of the outer peripheral surface sandwiching the annular processing region and the inner peripheral surface By sealing the gap, a non-conductive elastic sealing material capable of forming an electrolyte solution passage along the annular treatment region, and a side of the object to be processed so that a tip portion enters the electrolyte solution passage. The other of the rod-shaped positive electrode member and the negative electrode member projecting toward the surface, and an electrolyte solution passing means for allowing the electrolyte solution to flow along the electrolyte passage.
 本構成であれば、枠部材が被処理物の外周面及び環状被処理領域に対して間隔を隔てて対向する非導電性の内周面を備えているので、表面処理時において、金属成分や非金属成分が枠部材の内周面に析出することがない。
 また、棒状の陽電極部材及び陰電極部材の他方を突設してあるので、陽電極部材及び陰電極部材の他方の表面積を従来に比べて小さくして、金属成分や非金属成分などの析出成分の陽電極部材及び陰電極部材の他方に対する付着面積を小さくすることができ、析出成分の陽電極部材及び陰電極部材の他方に対する付着強度を弱めることができる。
 そして、棒状の陽電極部材及び陰電極部材の他方を先端部が電解液通路の中に入り込むように被処理物の側に向けて突設してあるので、棒状の陽電極部材及び陰電極部材の他方に堆積した付着強度が弱い析出成分を、電解液通路に沿って通流する電解液の勢いで押し流して棒状の陽電極部材及び陰電極部材の他方から取り除き易くなり、棒状の陽電極部材及び陰電極部材の他方に堆積した析出成分が大きく成長し難い。
 したがって、電解液通路における電解液の円滑な通流を長期に亘って確保して、環状被処理領域の表面近傍における温度上昇を長期に亘って抑制することができる。
 よって、本構成の表面処理装置であれば、表面処理を高い電圧で能率良く繰り返し行うことができる。
In this configuration, the frame member has a non-conductive inner peripheral surface that is opposed to the outer peripheral surface of the object to be processed and the annular processing region with a space therebetween. Nonmetallic components do not precipitate on the inner peripheral surface of the frame member.
In addition, since the other of the rod-shaped positive electrode member and negative electrode member is protruded, the surface area of the other of the positive electrode member and negative electrode member is made smaller than before, so that metal components and non-metal components are deposited. The adhesion area of the component to the other of the positive electrode member and the negative electrode member can be reduced, and the adhesion strength of the deposited component to the other of the positive electrode member and the negative electrode member can be weakened.
Since the other of the rod-shaped positive electrode member and the negative electrode member protrudes toward the object to be processed so that the tip portion enters the electrolyte passage, the rod-shaped positive electrode member and the negative electrode member The deposited component having a weak adhesion strength deposited on the other side of the electrode is easily removed from the other of the rod-shaped positive electrode member and the negative electrode member by the force of the electrolyte flowing along the electrolyte passage. And the deposited component deposited on the other of the negative electrode members is difficult to grow greatly.
Therefore, a smooth flow of the electrolytic solution in the electrolytic solution passage can be ensured over a long period of time, and a temperature increase in the vicinity of the surface of the annular processing region can be suppressed over a long period of time.
Therefore, with the surface treatment apparatus of this configuration, the surface treatment can be efficiently and repeatedly performed at a high voltage.
 本発明の第2特徴構成は、前記棒状の陽電極部材及び陰電極部材の他方の複数を前記電解液通路の周方向に沿って分散配置した点にある。 A second characteristic configuration of the present invention is that a plurality of the other of the rod-like positive electrode member and the negative electrode member are dispersedly arranged along the circumferential direction of the electrolyte passage.
 本構成であれば、棒状の陽電極部材及び陰電極部材の他方と環状被処理領域との間に発生する電場の強さを環状被処理領域に沿って分散させて、均質な被膜を形成し易い。 With this configuration, the electric field generated between the other of the rod-shaped positive electrode member and the negative electrode member and the annular treatment area is dispersed along the annular treatment area to form a uniform film. easy.
 本発明の第3特徴構成は、前記棒状の陽電極部材及び陰電極部材の他方を、その長手方向が前記外周面に対して直交する方向となるように突設した点にある。 The third characteristic configuration of the present invention is that the other of the rod-like positive electrode member and the negative electrode member is projected so that the longitudinal direction thereof is a direction perpendicular to the outer peripheral surface.
 本構成であれば、棒状の陽電極部材及び陰電極部材の他方と、その棒状の陽電極部材及び陰電極部材の他方に対して左右両側に位置する環状被処理領域部分との間に電場を左右対称に発生させて、均質な被膜を形成し易い。 In this configuration, an electric field is generated between the other of the rod-shaped positive electrode member and the negative electrode member and the annular processed region portions located on the left and right sides with respect to the other of the rod-shaped positive electrode member and the negative electrode member. It is generated symmetrically and it is easy to form a uniform film.
 本発明の第4特徴構成は、前記棒状の陽電極部材及び陰電極部材の他方の外周面を凹凸面に形成した点にある。 4th characteristic structure of this invention exists in the point which formed the other outer peripheral surface of the said rod-shaped positive electrode member and negative electrode member in the uneven surface.
 本構成であれば、棒状の陽電極部材及び陰電極部材の他方の表面積を大きくすることができるので大きな電流を流すことができるようになり、所望厚さの被膜を短い時間で能率良く形成し易い。 With this configuration, the other surface area of the rod-like positive electrode member and negative electrode member can be increased, so that a large current can flow, and a film having a desired thickness can be efficiently formed in a short time. easy.
 本発明の第5特徴構成は、前記棒状の陽電極部材及び陰電極部材の他方における先端部の形状を凸曲面状に形成した点にある。 The fifth characteristic configuration of the present invention is that the tip of the other of the rod-shaped positive electrode member and the negative electrode member is formed in a convex curved shape.
 本構成であれば、被処理物に近い先端部に電流が集中し難くなり、スパークが発生し難いので、均質な被膜を形成し易い。 This configuration makes it difficult to concentrate the current on the tip near the workpiece, and it is difficult for sparks to occur, so that it is easy to form a uniform film.

 図2,図3,図5に示すように、陰電極部材41の夫々は、先端部46aが電解液通路45の中に入り込むようにピストンAの側に向けて突設される電極軸部46と、枠部材17に固定される固定用軸部47と、通電部4の陰極端子4bに電気的に接続される接続軸部48とを備えた真っ直ぐな丸棒状に形成してある。
 電極軸部46の先端部46aの形状は、角部を備えない凸曲面形状に形成してある。
As shown in FIGS. 2, 3, and 5, each of the negative electrode members 41 has an electrode shaft portion 46 that protrudes toward the piston A so that the tip end portion 46 a enters the electrolyte passage 45. And a fixing shaft portion 47 fixed to the frame member 17 and a connecting shaft portion 48 electrically connected to the cathode terminal 4b of the energizing portion 4 are formed in a straight round bar shape.
The shape of the tip end portion 46a of the electrode shaft portion 46 is formed in a convex curved surface shape having no corners.
 複数の陰電極部材41は、その長手方向(軸芯方向)がピストン外周面Bに対して直交する方向と同じ方向となるように、又は、その直交する方向に対して75度以内の角度範囲で傾斜するように配置するのが望ましい。
 本実施形態では、複数の陰電極部材41を、図2に示すように、電極軸部46の長手方向がピストン外周面Bに対して直交する方向となるように、ピストン挿入孔25の中心に対する放射状に配設して、電解液通路45の周方向に沿って等間隔で分散配置してある。
The negative electrode members 41 have an angle range of 75 degrees or less so that the longitudinal direction (axial center direction) is the same direction as the direction orthogonal to the piston outer peripheral surface B. It is desirable to arrange so as to be inclined at
In the present embodiment, the plurality of negative electrode members 41 are arranged with respect to the center of the piston insertion hole 25 so that the longitudinal direction of the electrode shaft portion 46 is perpendicular to the piston outer peripheral surface B as shown in FIG. They are arranged radially and are distributed at equal intervals along the circumferential direction of the electrolyte passage 45.
 各陰電極部材41は、図3,図5に示すように電極軸部46が後述する電解液の排出流路38の中をピストンAの側に向けて突出し、図2に示すように接続軸部48が枠部材17の外周側に突出するように、固定用軸部47を第1枠板23と第2枠板24との間に嵌合状態で挟み込んで固定されている。 As shown in FIGS. 3 and 5, each negative electrode member 41 has an electrode shaft portion 46 protruding toward the piston A side in an electrolyte discharge passage 38, which will be described later, and a connecting shaft as shown in FIG. The fixing shaft portion 47 is sandwiched and fixed between the first frame plate 23 and the second frame plate 24 so that the portion 48 protrudes to the outer peripheral side of the frame member 17.
 各陰電極部材41の接続軸部48は、図2に示すように、通電部4の陰極端子4bに電気的に接続された共通の接続端子板49に電気的に接続されている。
 接続端子板49は枠部材17を囲む円環状に形成され、接続軸部48の夫々は、図3(b)に示すように、接続端子板49と接続端子板49にボルト固定される受け板50との間に挟み込んで、電気的に接続されている。
As shown in FIG. 2, the connection shaft portion 48 of each negative electrode member 41 is electrically connected to a common connection terminal plate 49 that is electrically connected to the cathode terminal 4 b of the energization portion 4.
The connection terminal plate 49 is formed in an annular shape surrounding the frame member 17, and each of the connection shaft portions 48 is fixed to the connection terminal plate 49 and the connection terminal plate 49 by bolts as shown in FIG. 50 and is electrically connected.
 したがって、陰電極部材41の交換に際しては、接続軸部48と接続端子板49との接続を解除して、交換対象の陰電極部材41を第1枠板23と第2枠板24との間から抜き出し、新たな陰電極部材41を第1枠板23と第2枠板24との間に差し込んで接続端子板49に接続することにより、容易に交換することができる。 Therefore, when replacing the negative electrode member 41, the connection between the connection shaft portion 48 and the connection terminal plate 49 is released, and the negative electrode member 41 to be replaced is placed between the first frame plate 23 and the second frame plate 24. It is possible to easily replace the negative electrode member 41 by inserting it between the first frame plate 23 and the second frame plate 24 and connecting it to the connection terminal plate 49.
 図2,図4,図5に示すように、第1枠板23における対向板部27及び鍔板部29と、第2枠板24における対向板部28及び鍔板部30との間には、電解液供給ノズル36の複数が周方向に一定間隔を隔てて配設されている。
 電解液供給ノズル36は、陰電極部材41と同じ数を配設するのが望ましく、本実施形態では陰電極部材41と同じ数の14個を配設してある。
As shown in FIGS. 2, 4, and 5, there is a gap between the opposing plate portion 27 and the saddle plate portion 29 in the first frame plate 23 and the opposing plate portion 28 and the saddle plate portion 30 in the second frame plate 24. A plurality of the electrolyte supply nozzles 36 are arranged at regular intervals in the circumferential direction.
It is desirable to dispose the same number of electrolyte supply nozzles 36 as the negative electrode members 41. In the present embodiment, 14 electrolytic electrode supply nozzles 36 having the same number as the negative electrode members 41 are disposed.
 図4,図5に示すように、各電解液供給ノズル36は、接続流路33に接続されているとともに、電解液通路45に電解液を供給する供給流路37を備え、この供給流路37が枠板内周面31に開口している。
 電解液供給ノズル36は、図2に示すように、その供給流路37の流路軸芯Xが枠板内周面31の接線に対して5~75度の角度範囲で傾斜するように設けてあるのが望ましい。
As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, each electrolyte supply nozzle 36 is connected to the connection flow path 33 and includes a supply flow path 37 for supplying the electrolyte solution to the electrolyte passage 45. 37 is open to the inner peripheral surface 31 of the frame plate.
As shown in FIG. 2, the electrolyte supply nozzle 36 is provided such that the flow channel axis X of the supply flow channel 37 is inclined at an angle range of 5 to 75 degrees with respect to the tangent to the inner peripheral surface 31 of the frame plate. It is desirable that
 図1,図5に示すように、周方向で隣り合う電解液供給ノズル36の間における上下の対向板部27,28の間の空間26及び上下の鍔板部29,30の間の空間が電解液の排出流路38として設けられている。 As shown in FIGS. 1 and 5, the space 26 between the upper and lower opposing plate portions 27 and 28 and the space between the upper and lower plate portions 29 and 30 between the electrolyte supply nozzles 36 adjacent in the circumferential direction are as follows. It is provided as an electrolyte discharge channel 38.
 各電解液供給ノズル36は、電解液が電解液通路45に沿って通流するように、枠板内周面31の接線に対して傾斜する方向から電解液通路45に電解液を供給できるように配設されている。 Each electrolytic solution supply nozzle 36 can supply the electrolytic solution to the electrolytic solution passage 45 from a direction inclined with respect to the tangent to the inner peripheral surface 31 of the frame plate so that the electrolytic solution flows along the electrolytic solution passage 45. It is arranged.
 したがって、これらの電解液供給ノズル36を備えた電解液供給部2が、電解液通路45に沿って電解液を通流させる電解液通流手段として設けられ、図5において矢印aで示すように、電解液は電極軸部46の表面を取り巻くように通流するので、電極軸部46に堆積した付着強度が弱い析出金属を電解液の勢いで押し流して取り除き易い。 Therefore, the electrolytic solution supply unit 2 including these electrolytic solution supply nozzles 36 is provided as an electrolytic solution flow means for flowing the electrolytic solution along the electrolytic solution passage 45, as shown by an arrow a in FIG. Since the electrolytic solution flows so as to surround the surface of the electrode shaft portion 46, it is easy to remove the deposited metal deposited on the electrode shaft portion 46 with low adhesion strength by the force of the electrolytic solution.
 電極軸部46に堆積した析出金属を取り除き易いので、堆積した析出金属がピストン外周面Bや周溝A1に接触することによるスパークが発生し難く、形成したアルマイト被膜がスパークにより溶解して処理品質が低下するおそれが少ない。 Since it is easy to remove the deposited metal deposited on the electrode shaft portion 46, it is difficult for sparks to be generated due to the deposited deposited metal coming into contact with the piston outer peripheral surface B or the circumferential groove A1, and the formed alumite film is dissolved by the spark and processed quality. Is less likely to decrease.
 図2に示すように、周方向で隣り合う電解液供給ノズル36の間の位置に、下側の対向板部28,下側固定板19及び支持基盤20に亘って貫通する貫通孔39が形成され、排出流路38の電解液はこれらの貫通孔39から自然流下して電解液槽1に排出される。 As shown in FIG. 2, a through hole 39 penetrating through the lower opposing plate portion 28, the lower fixing plate 19, and the support base 20 is formed at a position between the electrolyte solution supply nozzles 36 adjacent in the circumferential direction. Then, the electrolytic solution in the discharge channel 38 naturally flows down from these through holes 39 and is discharged into the electrolytic solution tank 1.
 本実施形態の陽極酸化処理装置は、陰電極部材41に堆積した析出金属が大きく成長し難いので、析出金属の析出厚さが陰電極部材41の交換が必要な厚さになるまでの電極使用時間が、ピストンAの外周面B及び周溝A1に対して間隔を隔てて対向する環状の内周面を有する陰電極部材を備えた従来の陽極酸化処理装置に比べて、略2倍になった。 In the anodizing apparatus of this embodiment, the deposited metal deposited on the negative electrode member 41 is large and difficult to grow. Therefore, the electrode is used until the deposited thickness of the deposited metal reaches a thickness that requires replacement of the negative electrode member 41. The time is approximately twice as long as that of a conventional anodizing apparatus having a negative electrode member having an annular inner peripheral surface facing the outer peripheral surface B and the peripheral groove A1 of the piston A with a space therebetween. It was.
 また、表1に示すように、膜厚が15μmのアルマイト被膜を形成する場合、特許文献1に開示された従来の陽極酸化処理装置に比べて、ヤケ電圧が50V以上高くなり、設定電圧を30V以上高くすることにより、処理時間を30%以上短縮することができた。 As shown in Table 1, when an alumite film having a film thickness of 15 μm is formed, the burn voltage is 50 V or more higher than the conventional anodizing apparatus disclosed in Patent Document 1, and the set voltage is 30 V. By increasing the above, the processing time could be shortened by 30% or more.
