The present invention relates to a sliding contact device, and particularly to improvements in the materials of the brush, commutator, or slip ring constituting the sliding contact device. Conventional sliding contact device has Pd30~50% by weight,
It is a combination of a brush made of an alloy material containing 20 to 40% Ag and 20 to 40% Cu by weight, and a commutator or slip ring made of an alloy material containing 0.5 to 15% Ag-Cd by weight. . By the way, the brush of this sliding contact device has a low softening temperature, and when it slides with a commutator or a slip ring, it tends to adhere and generate abrasion powder, making the contact resistance unstable. On the other hand, a commutator or slip ring is
It was composed of an alloy material containing 0.5 to 15% by weight of Ag-Cd, and had high stickiness and poor abrasion resistance when sliding with a brush. The present invention has been made in order to eliminate such drawbacks, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a sliding contact device that improves the abrasion resistance and contact resistance characteristics of the brush and improves the abrasion resistance of the commutator or slip ring. It is something to do. The sliding contact device of the present invention has a composition ratio of Pd30 to 50.
wt%, Ag20~40wt%, Cu20~40wt%Pd
-Ag-Cu is 95 to 99.5% by weight and the balance is Al, Ga,
A brush made of an alloy material containing a total of 0.5 to 5% by weight of at least one of Mn and Ni;
Ag-Cu3~12wt% or Ag-Cu3~12wt%-
It is combined with a commutator or slip ring made of an alloy material containing 5% by weight of Cd or less. In the sliding contact device of the present invention, the composition ratio of the brush is 30 to 50% by weight of Pd, 20 to 40% by weight of Ag, and 20 to 20% by weight of Cu.
The reason why the alloy material is composed of 40% by weight of Pd-Ag-Cu, 95 to 99.5% by weight, and the balance consisting of 0.5 to 5% by weight of at least one of Al, Ga, Mn, and Ni is that the Pd - This is to increase the softening temperature in order to improve the adhesion resistance of the Ag-Cu alloy material. If it is less than 0.5% by weight, the effect cannot be achieved, and if it exceeds 5% by weight, the amount of oxides generated increases. The contact resistance becomes high and, moreover, it becomes unstable. Also
By setting the contents of Pd, Ag, and Cu within a range that does not change the composition ratio of the conventional alloy material,
The properties of conventional alloy materials will be exhibited without being impaired. Commutator or slip spring, Ag-
The reason why it is made of an alloy material containing less than 3 to 12 weight % Cu or 3 to 12 weight % Ag-Cu and 5 weight % Cd is to suppress the stickiness when sliding with the brush and improve wear resistance. If the content of Cd is less than 3% by weight, the effect cannot be obtained, and if it exceeds 12% by weight, the amount of oxide generated during sliding becomes too large, resulting in high contact resistance and instability. If it exceeds 5% by weight, when it becomes oxidized Cd, the contact resistance increases and wear resistance deteriorates. Therefore,
The content of Cu is 3 to 12% by weight, and the content of Cd is not more than 5% by weight. Next, specific embodiments and conventional examples of the sliding contact device according to the present invention will be described. Brush wire rods with a wire diameter of 0.7 mm made of alloy materials of the example and conventional example shown in the left column of Table 1 below were each cut into lengths of 8 mm, and two wire rods were placed in parallel with one end having a width of 10 mm and a length of 8 mm. A brush was made by welding it to a base material with a length of 13 mm and a thickness of 0.2 mm, and a 2R arc-shaped contact part was curved at the other end. On the other hand, slip rings with a diameter of 50 mm were made by punching out 0.5 mm thick plates made of alloy materials having the compositions shown in the right column of Table 1 below. Therefore, a sliding contact device was made by combining these brushes and slip rings, respectively.
A sliding test was conducted under the following test conditions by bringing each brush into contact with the slip ring and rotating the slip ring in forward and reverse directions.The wear amount and contact resistance of the brush and slip ring were measured, and the results are shown in Table 2 below. We obtained the results shown below. Test conditions Current: 0.6A Voltage: 12V Load: Resistance load Rotation speed: 1000 rotations/Divide speed: 120-130m/min Contact force: 100g Sliding time: 7 hours

的なものと云える。[Table] As is clear from Table 2 above, the brushes and slip rings of the sliding contact devices of Examples 1 to 16 have a greater amount of wear than the brushes and slip rings of the sliding contacts of Conventional Examples 1 and 2, respectively. It can be seen that the contact resistance is significantly lower and the contact resistance is even lower and more stable. This is because the softening temperature of the alloy material constituting the brushes of the sliding contact devices of Examples 1 to 16 is increased by adding at least one of Al, Ga, Mn, and Ni, resulting in improved adhesion resistance. This is because it improves. In addition, the Cu alloy material constituting the slip rings of the sliding contact devices of Examples 1 to 16 suppresses the increase in stickiness during sliding and improves wear resistance. None other than that. As detailed above, the sliding contact device of the present invention has significantly superior wear resistance of the brush and commutator or slip ring compared to conventional sliding contact devices, generates extremely little wear powder, and has contact resistance. It is also much lower and more stable, so it can be said to be an epoch-making device that can replace conventional sliding contact devices.
