Providing an iron and steel material having quenched surface part, avoiding oxidation of a compound layer formed on the surface of the iron and steel material due to quenching, its production method, and an induction-quenched component. A quenched iron and steel material 10 comprises an iron and steel material 11, a compound layer 12 formed on the iron and steel material 11, and an antioxidant cover layer 13 formed on the compound layer 12. The iron and steel material 11 has a hardened layer having a given depth, and the surface of the iron and steel material 11 has enhanced hardness. A method for producing the iron and steel material 10 comprises a first step for forming the antioxidant cover layer 13 to cover the compound layer 12 formed on the iron and steel material 11, and a second step for applying induction hardening to the iron and steel material 11 having the compound layer 12 and the antioxidant cover layer 13, with the temperature increased in a given heating time until the given heating temperature is reached, and with cooling immediately performed once the heating temperature is reached.

An induction hardening apparatus comprises heating coils (26) that inductively heat different parts of the treatment target portion (A) in an axial direction of the work (12), the work (12) and a heating coil (26) being relatively moved along a circumferential direction (R) of a treatment target portion (A). The heating coil (26) has a zigzag shape in which a bent portion (34) that is opened to one side in the axial direction and a bent portion (35) opened to the other side in the axial direction are alternately continuously arranged in opposed directions along the circumferential direction (R).

The purpose of the invention is to provide a nondestructive testing method capable of quickly and accurately measuring the quenching depth of a quenching processed material. To achieve this purpose, for example, the following quenching depth measuring method is employed. The quenching depth measuring method is used for measuring the quenching depth in a workpiece and comprises the steps of: magnetizing the workpiece by disposing, in the vicinity of the workpiece, a magnetizer equipped with an exciting coil; detecting, through a detection coil, an induced magnetic field generated by the magnetization; measuring the induced magnetic field as the output voltage of the detection coil; and specifying the thickness of the quenched hardened layer of the workpiece on the basis of known electromagnetic characteristic information of an unquenched material and a fully-quenched material and an output voltage value measured by the detection coil, the unquenched material being made of the same material as the constituent material of the workpiece and being a material on which a quenching process is not performed, the fully-quenched material being a material on which the quenching process is performed.

An induction heating device and an induction heating method are provided. The entire areas to be heated of the workpiece, even a large workpiece, can be readily and approximately uniformly heated to a predetermined high temperature, and uniform heating is possible even when the workpiece deforms in a non-uniform manner during heating. When areas to be heated H1, H2 are established on a workpiece W so as to extend in one direction and the areas to be heated H1, H2 are induction-heated, the deformation amount on one edge of the areas to be heated H1, H2 is different from that on the other. This induction heating device includes: heating coils 451 facing a portion of the areas to be heated H1, H2 when the workpiece W is induction-heated; and a relative transfer means for transferring the workpiece W and the heating coils 451 along one direction in a relative manner, and the heating coils 451 are disposed so as to correspond to the areas to be heated H1, H2 during the heating period.
