Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method of treating the surface of a valve element in an engine valve moulded from Ti or Ti alloy, and especially a method of treating the outer circumferential surface of a stem of the valve element to improve wear resistance thereof.
  • the largest obstacle is increase in inertia mass owing to weight of a valve operating mechanism.
  • the valve element is moulded from Ti or Ti alloy having low specific gravity and high heat resistance, thereby lightening the valve element.
  • Ti or Ti alloy has Rockwell hardness (HRC) of about 30 to 40, thereby decreasing wear resistance of a stem which is always guided to a valve guide and slidably reciprocates at high speed, so that it is liable to cause baking or galling.
  • HRC Rockwell hardness
  • Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open Pub. No.4-103211 describes an engine valve in which salt bath soft nitriding is applied to the outer circumferential surface of a stem to increase wear resistance thereof.
  • a nitrided layer hardened layer
  • a method of treating the surface of Ti or Ti alloy valve element in an engine valve comprising a head and a stem, the method comprising the steps of forming an Fe covering layer on the outer circumferential surface of the stem which slidably contacts a valve guide; and applying nitriding to said covering layer to form a nitrided layer.
  • nitriding is applied to the covering layer, so that nitrogen deeply diffuses compared with a conventional engine valve in which nitriding is applied directly onto Ti.
  • relatively thick nitrided layer is formed. Accordingly, wear resistance is remarkably increased at the valve stem which slidably contacts a valve guide, thereby providing a durable engine valve.
  • Fig. 1 illustrates an engine valve according to the present invention, in which a valve element 3 which comprises a head 1 and a stem 2 is integrally moulded from Ti or Ti alloy (Ti-Al-V). On the whole surface of the valve element 3 except the head, there is formed a covering layer 4 from thermal spraying material of a heat-resisting steel or alloy steel such as Fe, Ni or Co as base.
  • the covering layer 4 may be made of the thermal spraying material like powder, rod or wire with thermal spraying means such as plasma and gas flame to provide thickness of 50 to 200 ⁇ m.
  • the outer circumferential surface of the valve element 3 Prior to formation of the covering layer 4, the outer circumferential surface of the valve element 3 may be a rough surface 5 by blasting treatment as shown in Fig. 2, thereby increasing bond strength of the spraying material to the surface of the element to increase peel resistance of the covering layer 4.
  • a nitrided layer 6 On the surface of the covering layer 4, there is formed a nitrided layer 6 with thickness of 10 to 30 ⁇ m.
  • the nitrided layer 6 is easily formed by general salt bath soft nitriding (Tufftriding).
  • a treating bath which contains KCN, KOCN and Na 4 [Fe(CN) 6 ] as main ingredient is heated to about 600°C, and the valve element 3 is immersed in the bath for 1 to 2 hours.
  • a compound (nitrided) layer which contains very hard carbide and nitride.
  • the compound layer provides excellent wear-, galling- and baking-resistance, thereby increasing wear resistance not only of a portion of the stem which slidably contacts a valve guide 7, but also of a stem face 8 which contacts a locker arm and a tappet (not shown), a valve face 9 which contacts a valve seat (not shown) and a cotter groove 10.
  • the covering layer 4 made of steel is formed on the surface of the Ti valve element, soft nitriding is applied on the surface of the covering layer 4 to form the nitrided layer 6, so that diffusion of nitrogen becomes deeper than a conventional direct nitriding on the surface of Ti valve element, thereby forming a thick nitrided layer 6 for usual treating time.
  • padding may be applied instead of thermal spraying, and material for thermal spraying may comprise cheaper carbon- or stainless-steel instead of the foregoing heat-resisting steel.
  • Nitriding may be gas-, liquid-, ion- or gas-carburizing nitriding instead of the salt bath soft nitriding.
