Description

  

  Aluminiumlegierung für     Notorkolbeu.       Als Baustoff für Kolben von Verbren  nungsmotoren nehmen die Aluminiumlegie  rungen infolge ihres geringen spezifischen  Gewichtes und ihrer hohen Wärmeleitfähig  keit einen bevorzugten Platz ein. Am besten       bewährten    sich bisher solche Legierungen,  die neben guten Festigkeitseigenschaften eine       Kugeldruckhärte    von mindestens 100 bis  120 kg/mm' aufwiesen. Die Erfahrung zeigte  aber, dass die bisher im Kolbenbau verwen  deten Aluminiumlegierungen, die obigen An  forderungen im ungebrauchten Zustande ge  nügten, im Betriebe infolge     Anlasswirkung     allmählich erweichten, sowie bisweilen blei  bende Formveränderungen aufwiesen und da  durch in relativ kurzer Zeit unbrauchbar  wurden.  



  Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft nun  eine Aluminiumlegierung für Motorkolben,  die auch im angelassenen Zustande noch ge  nügende     Kugeldruckhärte    aufweist. Solche  Legierungen werden erhalten, indem man       Aluminium-Kupfer-Eisen-Legierungen    mit 8  bis 17 % Kupfer und 1 bis 8 % Eisen meh  rere, Härtung bedingende Legierungskompo-         nenten,    wie Magnesium,     Mangan        etc.;    in  Mengen bis zu 2  / zusetzt. Die gegossenen  Kolben werden zweckmässig nach dem Guss  einer     Anlassbehandlung    bei Temperaturen un  terhalb<B>350'</B> C unterworfen. Der gleiche  Effekt kann     auch    durch eine absichtlich  stark verzögerte Abkühlung erzielt werden.

    Dies kann beispielsweise dadurch erreicht  werden, dass die den Kokillen entnommenen  zirka<B>500'</B> C warmen     Gussstücke    in einem  gut wärmeisolierten Behälter langsamer Ab  kühlung überlassen werden. Durch diese Be  handlung werden die Legierungen in den bei  niedrigen Temperaturen stabilen Gefüge  zustand     übergeführt,    so dass bei den in Be  tracht kommenden Betriebstemperaturen we  der Härte- noch bleibende Formänderungen  zu befürchten sind.



  Aluminum alloy for Notorkolbeu. As a building material for pistons in internal combustion engines, aluminum alloys occupy a preferred position due to their low specific weight and high thermal conductivity. So far, the best alloys have proven to be those which, in addition to good strength properties, have an indentation hardness of at least 100 to 120 kg / mm '. Experience has shown, however, that the aluminum alloys previously used in piston construction that met the above requirements when they were not in use, gradually softened in operation as a result of the tempering effect, and sometimes showed permanent changes in shape and therefore became unusable in a relatively short time.



  The present invention relates to an aluminum alloy for engine pistons, which still has sufficient ball indentation hardness even in the tempered state. Such alloys are obtained by using aluminum-copper-iron alloys with 8 to 17% copper and 1 to 8% iron several alloy components that require hardening, such as magnesium, manganese etc .; in amounts up to 2 / added. After casting, the cast pistons are expediently subjected to a tempering treatment at temperatures below <B> 350 '</B> C. The same effect can also be achieved by deliberately delaying the cooling.

    This can be achieved, for example, in that the cast pieces with a temperature of about 500 ° C that have been removed from the molds are left to cool slowly in a well-insulated container. As a result of this treatment, the alloys are converted into a structure that is stable at low temperatures, so that neither hardness nor permanent changes in shape are to be feared at the operating temperatures in question.
