The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a resin sliding material used in a belt tensioner for applying tension to a belt in a belt type auxiliary machine driving device of an automobile engine, and in particular, a commercially available product having a friction coefficient different from that of the sliding material. It is related with the countermeasure which obtains the sliding material of a required friction coefficient using the resin material of this.
For example, in a belt-type auxiliary machine drive device for an automobile engine, an auto tensioner is known in which tension is applied to a belt and the tension applying operation is automatically damped in accordance with fluctuations in belt tension.
This includes a fixed body attached to the engine, a swinging body that is swingably held by the fixed body so that the pulley moves forward and backward in the direction of pressing the belt, and twisting the swinging body with respect to the fixed body. Therefore, a torsion coil spring that is urged to rotate in the belt pressing direction and a fixed body and an oscillating body are interposed, and a sliding friction between the oscillating body and the reaction force of the torsion torque of the torsion coil spring. And a sliding member made of resin that generates a vibration, and by utilizing the fact that the sliding frictional force changes according to the rotational direction or position of the rocking body, the damping force against the rocking of the rocking body is obtained. It is designed to increase or decrease automatically.
By the way, the friction coefficient of a sliding material is mentioned as a main element which prescribes | regulates said damping force. Therefore, in order to satisfy various conditions such as required belt pressing force, damping characteristics and installation space, a sliding material with a friction coefficient suitable for them is required, and for that purpose, a resin material corresponding to that is required. It is.
For example, in Patent Document 1, a polyamide 46 resin is used as a main resin component of a sliding material of an auto tensioner, and a fiber reinforcing material such as carbon fiber or aromatic polyamide fiber, self-lubricating property and wear resistance are used for this. It is described that a sliding material is obtained by adding a fluororesin such as a tetrafluoroethylene resin for improving the hardness and molybdenum disulfide for further wear resistance and dimensional stability.
JP-A-7-286646 (pages 3 to 5)
However, in practice, resin materials must be selected from commercially available products, and, for this reason, in the conventional case, friction that is considered to be optimal in satisfying the required properties and conditions. There is a problem that it is difficult to obtain a sliding material having a coefficient, and the wrinkling forces a design change of related parts, resulting in an increase in manufacturing cost.
The present invention has been made in view of such a point, and the main object thereof is as a main resin line segment of a sliding material of a belt tensioner used in a belt type auxiliary machine driving device for an automobile engine. Even if a commercially available resin material having a different friction coefficient from that of the sliding material is used, the required friction coefficient is obtained.
In order to achieve the above object, in the present invention, based on the knowledge that there is a positive proportional relationship between the flexural modulus of the resin material and the coefficient of friction, the flexural modulus is the main resin component of the sliding material. A low elastic resin material having a bending elastic modulus lower than that of the predetermined sliding material is mixed with a high elastic resin material higher than the predetermined sliding material.
Specifically, the present invention has a fixed body fixed to the fixed side and a belt pressing portion, and the belt pressing portion can be displaced to the fixed body so as to move forward and backward in the direction of pressing the belt. A movable body that is held between the fixed body and the movable body, a biasing means that biases the movable body toward the belt pressing direction with respect to the fixed body, and the fixed body and the movable body. A method of manufacturing the sliding material in a belt tensioner provided with a sliding material that is interposed between the sliding material and generates sliding friction that damps the displacement of the movable body with the displacement of the movable body relative to the fixed body. It is assumed.
And as a main resin component of the sliding material, a low elastic resin material whose bending elastic modulus is lower than that of the sliding material is mixed with a high elastic resin material whose bending elastic modulus is higher than that of the sliding material. Polyamide 46 resin is used as both the high elastic resin material and the low elastic resin material .
Incidentally, in the above-described structure, as the high elastic resin material and a low elastic resin material, their respective, it may be mentioned those which are substantially 3000MPa and approximately 1900 MPa. In that case, the mixing ratio of the low elastic resin material to the high elastic resin material is preferably 5 to 20% by weight.
In addition, as an example of the belt tensioner in which the above-described sliding material is incorporated, a torsion coil spring is provided as an urging means, and the sliding material and the fixed body are obtained by a reaction force of the torsion torque of the torsion coil spring. And at least one of the movable bodies are brought into pressure contact with each other. For example, the movable body is a rocking body that is swingably held by the fixed body so as to move forward and backward with respect to the belt pressing direction, and the torsion coil spring uses the torsional torque to move the rocking body in the belt pressing direction. More specifically, when the sliding member and one of the fixed body and the rocking body are pressed against each other with the reaction force of the torsional torque, more specifically, the fixed body is the rocking shaft. A shaft portion provided so as to extend along the center, and the rocking body has a boss portion fitted on the shaft portion so as to be swingable around the rocking shaft center; When the torsion coil spring has a coil portion that is loosely fitted on the boss portion of the oscillating body, the sliding material is slidably contacted with the boss portion of the oscillating body while being fixed to the fixed body so as not to oscillate. Provided, and the torsion coil spring presses the sliding member and the boss of the rocking body against each other. It can be assumed to have been.
According to the present invention, a sliding material having an optimum friction coefficient can be obtained by satisfying various required conditions by mixing a high-elasticity resin material and a low-elasticity resin material as a main resin component of the sliding material. It can be obtained easily, and accordingly, it can contribute to the reduction of the manufacturing cost of the belt tensioner.

It is supposed to change.
The belt tensioner includes a fixed body 10 fixed to an engine as a fixed side, and an oscillating body 20 supported by the fixed body 10 so as to be swingable about a swing axis P.
The fixed body 10 includes a bottomed cylindrical housing portion 11 and a shaft portion 12 erected at the center of the bottom wall in the housing portion 11. The outer peripheral surface of the shaft portion 12 is formed in a tapered cross section whose outer diameter gradually decreases toward the distal end side, and the shaft portion P of the shaft portion 12 penetrates the shaft portion in the axial direction. Bolt holes 13 are provided. A mounting portion (not shown) is provided on the outer periphery of the housing portion 11, and the fixed body 10 is fixed to the engine by bolts at the mounting portion and the bolt hole 13. Further, a slit-like locking portion 14 is formed in a part of the peripheral wall of the housing portion 11 in the circumferential direction and extends in a radial direction through the peripheral wall and reaches a position in the vicinity of the opening from a position in contact with the bottom wall.
On the other hand, the rocking body 20 includes a bottomed cylindrical housing portion 21 and a boss portion provided at the center of the bottom wall of the housing portion 21 so as to be fitted from the front end side of the shaft portion 12 of the fixed body 10. 22. The boss portion 22 is formed so as to extend from the bottom wall of the housing portion 21 toward the opening side of the housing portion 21, and the inner peripheral surface thereof gradually increases in inner diameter toward the opening side of the housing portion 21. The cross section is tapered. The taper angle of the inner peripheral surface of the boss portion 22 is substantially the same as the taper angle of the outer peripheral surface of the shaft portion 12. In the oscillating body 20, the opening of the housing portion 21 overlaps with the opening of the housing portion 11 of the fixed body 10, and the boss portion 22 is fitted on the shaft portion 12 of the fixed body 10 from the front end side of the shaft portion 12. It is arranged in the state. The shaft portion 12 passes through the boss portion 22 in the axial direction, and protrudes in the axial direction from the bottom wall of the distal end portion housing portion 21. A front plate 23 having a substantially disc shape and having an outer diameter larger than the inner diameter of the boss portion 22 is locked to the tip portion, thereby preventing the boss portion 22 from coming out of the shaft portion 12. It is. Further, a locking hole (not shown) penetrating the peripheral wall in the radial direction is formed in a part of the peripheral wall of the housing portion 21 in the peripheral direction and in the vicinity of the bottom wall.
On the outer periphery of the housing portion 21, an arm portion 24 is provided so as to protrude outward in the radial direction, and a pulley holding portion 25 is provided at the tip of the arm portion 24. Bolt holes 26 extending in a direction parallel to the swing axis P are formed in the pulley holding portion 25. The outer periphery on the front end side of the pulley holding portion 25 has a small diameter, and a bearing 27 is fitted on the small diameter portion on the inner ring. The inner ring is attached to the pulley holding portion 25 by a flange portion of a flanged bolt 28 screwed into the bolt hole 26. On the outer ring of the bearing 27, a pulley 29 as a pressing portion is fitted integrally with the rotation. The pulley 29 contacts the transmission belt and presses the transmission belt while rotating around the pulley axis Q. It is like that.
Between the boss part 22 of the rocking body 20 and the shaft part 12 of the fixed body 10, a substantially cylindrical insert bearing 40 as a first sliding member is interposed. It is supported by the fixed body 10 via the insert bearing 40 so as to be swingable about the swing axis P. The inner and outer peripheral surfaces of the insert bearing 40 are each formed in a tapered cross section. The taper angle of the inner peripheral surface is substantially the same as the outer peripheral surface of the shaft portion 12, and the taper angle of the outer peripheral surface is substantially the same as the inner peripheral surface of the boss portion 22. A disc-shaped thrust washer 41 made of the same material as that of the insert bearing 40 is interposed between the front plate 23 and the bottom wall of the housing portion 21 of the rocking body 20.
Between the fixed body 10 and the rocking body 20, the rocking body 20 is always attached to the fixed body 10 so that the pulley 29 rotates about the rocking axis P toward the direction in which the pulley 29 presses the transmission belt. A torsion coil spring 50 is interposed. Specifically, the torsion coil spring 50 is housed between the housing part 11 of the fixed body 10 and the housing part 21 of the rocking body 20, and a right-handed coil part 51 and a fixed part in the coil part 51. A fixed-side tongue 52 that protrudes radially outward from the end on the body 10 side, and a swing-side tongue (not shown) that protrudes radially outward from the end on the swing body 20 side of the coil portion 51. Z). The coil part 51 is fitted onto the boss part 22 of the rocking body 20, and the fixed side tongue 52 is locked to the locking part 14 of the fixed body 10 in a state where movement in the circumferential direction is restricted, On the other hand, the swinging side tongue is locked to the locking hole of the swinging body 20 in a state where movement in the circumferential direction is restricted.
Further, the torsion coil spring 50 is interposed between the fixed body 10 and the rocking body 20 in a state where the coil part 51 is twisted in a direction in which the diameter of the coil part 51 is reduced. The oscillating body 20 is urged to rotate with a torsional torque. Further, the torsion coil spring 50 is interposed in a state where the coil portion 51 is compressed in the axial direction, whereby the thrust washer 41 is connected between the front plate 23 and the housing portion 21 of the oscillator 20. It is in a state of being pinched in between.
Between the coil part 51 of the torsion coil spring 50 and the boss part 22 of the rocking body 20, a substantially hooked cylindrical spring support 60 as a second sliding member is interposed. The spring support 60 is provided on a boss portion 22 of the oscillating body 20 and is fitted on the boss portion 22 so as to be slidably contacted with the boss portion 22 and at one opening edge of the damping portion 61. And a flange portion 62 having an outward flange shape. The axial dimension of the damping part 61 is substantially the same as the axial dimension of one turn of the coil part 51 of the torsion coil spring 50. The flange portion 62 is disposed between the end portion of the coil portion 51 on the fixed side tongue 52 side and the bottom wall of the housing portion 11 of the fixed body 10, and is sandwiched between the two by the compressive force of the coil portion 51. Thus, the spring support 60 is fixed to the fixed body 10 in a non-rotatable manner.
Here, the operation of the belt tensioner configured as described above will be described.
When the tension of the transmission belt decreases with the operation of the automobile engine, in the belt tensioner, the oscillator 20 is rotated in the belt pressing direction by the torsional torque of the torsion coil spring 50, and the pulley 29 presses the transmission belt. Therefore, a decrease in belt tension is suppressed. On the other hand, when the tension of the transmission belt increases, the pulley 29 is pressed by the belt reaction force, and the oscillator 20 rotates in a direction opposite to the belt pressing direction. Increase in belt tension is suppressed.
On the other hand, due to the reaction force of the torsional torque of the torsion coil spring 50, a part in the circumferential direction of the coil portion 51 of the torsion coil spring 50 is always pressed inward in the radial direction. Part of the boss portion 22 in the circumferential direction is sandwiched between the damping portion 61 of the spring support 60 and the insert bearing 40. Therefore, sliding friction is generated between the damping part 61 and the boss part 22 of the spring support 60 and between the insert bearing 40 and the boss part 22 as the swinging body 20 swings. It acts as a damping force that attenuates the swing of the moving body 20. At that time, the reaction force of the torsional torque is reduced accordingly when the oscillator 20 rotates in the belt pressing direction, that is, when the coil portion 51 is expanded in diameter, so that the damping force is also reduced. Therefore, the swinging body 20 is quickly rotated. On the other hand, when the oscillating body 20 rotates in the direction opposite to the belt pressing direction, that is, when the diameter of the coil portion 51 is reduced, the damping force is also increased since it rises accordingly.
As a result, the belt tensioner quickly presses the transmission belt when the belt tension decreases to suppress the decrease in belt tension. On the other hand, when the belt tension increases, the belt tensioner gently absorbs the increased belt reaction force. Reduce the increase in tension. By doing so, the transmission belt fluttering due to tension fluctuations can be avoided, so that the transmission belt can be prevented from slipping with respect to the accessory pulley, ensuring torque transmission and shortening the life of the transmission belt. Will be prevented.
Next, a method for manufacturing the insert bearing 40 and the spring support 60 in the belt tensioner configured as described above will be described. In the following description, the insert bearing 40 and the spring support 60 are collectively referred to as “sliding material”.
In this embodiment, a high elastic resin material having a higher flexural modulus than the sliding material and a low elastic resin material having a lower flexural modulus than the sliding material are mixed at a predetermined ratio. Thus, the main resin component of the sliding material is used, and one or more optional auxiliary agents are added to the mixture as necessary, and then molded into a predetermined shape.
Specifically, for example, when a material having a flexural modulus of about 3000 MPa is used as a high elastic resin material, a material having a flexural modulus of about 1900 MPa is used as a low elastic resin material. The necessary wear resistance while avoiding the situation that abnormal noise due to stick-slip is likely to occur due to the fact that oil and fat etc. adhere to the moving material and the change between the static friction coefficient and the dynamic friction coefficient in the sliding material increases. In terms of ensuring the property, the mixing ratio (weight ratio) is preferably high elastic resin material: low elastic resin material = 95: 5 to 80:20. In addition, as such a high elastic resin material and a low elastic resin material , “PX” of “Stanyl (trade name)” which is a polyamide 46 resin (PA46) manufactured by DSM Japan Engineering Plastics Co., Ltd., respectively. -9a (grade name) "and" TW363 (same as above) ".
-Test 1
Here, in the manufacturing method described above, belt tensioners are respectively produced using the three types of sliding materials of Examples 1 to 3 obtained by changing the mixing ratio of the high elastic resin material and the low elastic resin material. An experiment was conducted to check the presence or absence of abnormal noise associated with fluctuations in belt tension by running the belt with the molybdenum grease (MoS 2 ) applied to each sliding surface. .
Specifically, the mixing ratio of the high elastic resin material and the low elastic resin material was 95:05 in Example 1, 90:10 in Example 2, and 80:20 in Example 3. For comparison, a sliding material obtained only with a highly elastic resin material was used as a comparative example, and a belt tensioner using the sliding material was manufactured, and the same experiment as described above was performed.
The above results are also shown in Table 1 below. Furthermore, the relationship between the rotational position and direction and the output torque is shown in FIG. 2 for Example 1, FIG. 3 for Example 2, FIG. 4 for Example 3, and for Comparative Example. Each is shown in FIG. The arrow on the characteristic curve indicates the direction of change.
In all of Examples 1 to 3, no abnormal noise was confirmed. On the other hand, in the case of the comparative example, it was confirmed that abnormal noise was generated both when the oscillator was rotated in the belt pressing direction and when it was rotated in the opposite direction.
Looking at each characteristic diagram, in the comparative example, when the oscillating body oscillates, a slight torque fluctuation appears regardless of the rotation direction. This is because the boss part of the oscillating body and the insert bearing or the spring support. It is thought to be due to stick-slip between. On the other hand, in Examples 1 to 3, such torque fluctuation is not observed. Incidentally, in the comparison between Example 1 and Example 2, almost no difference in characteristics can be confirmed, but in the comparison between Example 2 and Example 3, Example 3 turns in the belt pressing direction. While the torque at the time is small, the torque when rotating in the anti-belt pressing direction is large. This is because the friction coefficient increases as the mixing ratio of the low-elasticity resin material increases, thereby increasing the damping force against the swinging of the swinging body.
Next, for Example 1 and Example 2 described above, using a Suzuki friction and wear tester shown in FIG. 6, an aluminum alloy mating member 110 is disposed on the drive 100 side, while a sliding material is disposed on the driven 200 side. 210 is arranged, and when the sliding member 210 is pressed against the mating member 110 with a predetermined load 300, the mating member 110 is rotationally driven to transmit torque to the driven 200 side via the sliding member 210. The torque is detected by the load cell 400. At that time, molybdenum grease was applied to the sliding surface of the sliding member 210, and a test was conducted to examine the change in torque over time at a temperature of 95 ° C. For comparison, a sliding material (Comparative Example 1) made only of a high elastic resin material and a sliding material (Comparative Example 2) made only of a low elastic resin material were prepared. The same test as in Example 2 was performed. The counterpart material 110 was an aluminum alloy (“ADC12” defined in JIS H 5302). The load 300 (surface pressure) on the sliding member 210 is 200 kgf / mm 2 (≈1961.33 MPa), and the relative speed between the mating member 110 and the sliding member 210 is 0.2 mm / in terms of linear velocity. sec. The above results are also shown in the characteristic diagram (FIG. 7).
Comparing Comparative Example 1 and Example 1, it can be seen that the torques are at substantially the same level after the point of stabilization. However, it can be seen that the torque fluctuation amount in Example 1 is smaller than that in Comparative Example 1 in the unstable torque section immediately after the start of the test. This means that Example 1 has a smaller change between the static friction coefficient and the dynamic friction coefficient. That is, in Example 1, although the change between the static friction coefficient and the dynamic friction coefficient is smaller than that in the case of Comparative Example 1, the same friction coefficient as that in Comparative Example 1 is exhibited.
Next, when Example 1 and Example 2 are compared, in the section where the sliding torque is unstable immediately after the start of the test, the amount of variation in the sliding torque is more in the case of Example 2 than in the case of Example 1. Is even smaller. Further, the level of the sliding torque itself is smaller in the second embodiment than in the first embodiment.
Furthermore, when Example 2 is compared with Comparative Example 2, it can be seen that the amount of variation and level of the sliding torque are substantially the same. That is, in Comparative Example 2, the occurrence of abnormal noise due to a large change in the friction coefficient is avoided to the same extent as in Example 2.
In addition to Example 1 and Example 2 above, Example 3 in which the mixing ratio of the high elastic resin material and the low elastic resin material is 80:20, Example 4 in which 70:30, and 60:40 Each of the above-described Example 5 is manufactured, and these are incorporated in the belt tensioner having the above-described configuration and used in a belt-type accessory drive device for an automobile engine. deg]), that is, a test was conducted to check the ease of alignment of the belt tensioner pulley relative to the transmission belt. For comparison, the same test was performed on the belt tensioner incorporating the above Comparative Example 1. The above results are also shown in the characteristic diagram (FIG. 8). The vertical axis in the characteristic diagram is the angle (unit: deg) of the boss portion of the rocking body with respect to the shaft portion (oscillation axis) of the fixed body, and the horizontal axis is the elapsed time (unit: h).
As can be seen from FIG. 8, in the case of Comparative Example 1, the arm inclination is the smallest, and the higher the mixing ratio of the low elastic resin material, the larger the arm inclination, that is, the wear amount increases. This means that the low elastic resin material is inferior to the high elastic resin material in terms of wear resistance. In particular, when the mixing ratio of the low elastic resin material exceeds 20% by weight, the amount of wear increases rapidly. Therefore, in terms of wear resistance, it is preferable that the mixing ratio of the low elastic resin material is 20% by weight or less in the general use of the auto tensioner.
In order to further examine the results of Test 3, a test for creating a critical PV curve was performed on Example 2. For comparison, the same test was performed for Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2 described above. The above results are also shown in the characteristic diagram (FIG. 9). In addition, the vertical axis | shaft of the same characteristic view is "sliding speed [unit: m / s], and a horizontal axis is" surface pressure [unit: MPa] ".
As can be seen from FIG. 9 , the limit PV value increases in the order of Comparative Example 2, Example 2, and Comparative Example 1. This indicates that the wear resistance is higher in the order of Comparative Example 2, Example 2, and Comparative Example 1. In other words, the wear resistance decreases as the mixing ratio of the low elastic resin material increases.
-Conclusion of Test 1-Test 4-
From the above, by mixing the low elastic resin material having a flexural modulus of about 1900 MPa with respect to the high elastic resin material having a flexural modulus of about 3000 MPa so that the mixing ratio is 5% by weight or more, It can be seen that a sliding material for a belt tensioner having a friction coefficient that reduces the occurrence of stick-slip in a state where the oil and fat are adhered (the difference between the coefficient of static friction and the coefficient of dynamic friction becomes small) can be obtained.
On the other hand, in terms of wear resistance, it decreases as the mixing ratio of the low elastic resin material to the high elastic resin material increases. Therefore, in practice, it is preferable to keep the mixing ratio lower depending on the use condition of the belt tensioner. In general, the mixing ratio of the low elastic resin material is preferably 5 to 20% by weight.
Here, for Examples 1 to 6, Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2, the mixing ratio of the high elastic resin material and the low elastic resin material is summarized in Table 2 below.
Therefore, according to the present embodiment, in the belt-type accessory driving device for an automobile engine, the torsion coil spring 50 that urges the swinging body 20 held by the fixed body 10 fixed to the engine to rotate in the belt pressing direction. By pressing the resin-made insert bearing 40 and the spring support 60 against the boss portion 22 of the swinging body 20 with the reaction force of the torsional torque, sliding friction is generated when the swinging body 20 swings. The auto-tensioner insert bearing 40 and the spring support are configured to dampen with a small damping force for rotation in the belt pressing direction of 20 but with a large damping force for rotation in the anti-belt pressing direction. As for the main resin material of No. 60, the bending elastic modulus is insert bearin. Since the high elastic resin material higher than 40 and the spring support 60 is mixed with the low elastic resin material whose flexural modulus is lower than that of the insert bearing 40 and the spring support 60, the insert bearing 40 having an appropriate friction coefficient is mixed. And the spring support 60 can be obtained by using a commercially available resin material. Therefore, when the torsion torque of the torsion coil spring 50 is changed with respect to the insert bearing 40 and the spring support 60 having a constant friction coefficient, As compared with the case where the resin material of the insert bearing 40 and the spring support 60 is handled from the manufacturing stage, it can contribute to the reduction of the manufacturing cost of the auto tensioner.
In addition, when a material having a flexural modulus of about 3000 MPa is used as the high-elasticity resin material, a material having a flexural modulus of about 1900 MPa is used as the low-elasticity resin material. When the mixing ratio is 5 to 20% by weight, even when oil or fat is attached to the insert bearing 40 or the spring support 60, the change between the coefficient of static friction and the coefficient of dynamic friction becomes large, and noise due to stick-slip is generated. The occurrence of occurrence can be suppressed, and the insert bearing 40 and the spring support 60 having high wear resistance can be obtained.
In the above embodiment, both the high elastic resin material and the low elastic resin material are polyamide 46 resin, and the bending elastic moduli are approximately 3000 MPa and approximately 1900 MPa, respectively. However , the flexural modulus and the mixing ratio are not particularly limited and can be appropriately set based on the conditions.
In the above embodiment, an example of an auto tensioner as a specific example of the belt tensioner and a sliding material incorporated in the auto tensioner is shown.
