摘要:
In a thixocasting process, the following steps are used: a step of subjecting, to a heating treatment, an Al-Si based alloy material having a hypo eutectic crystal composition and a characteristic that a first angled endothermic section appearing due to the melting of a eutectic crystal and a second angled endothermic section appearing due to the melting of a component having a melting point higher than a eutectic point exist in a differential calorimetric curve, thereby preparing a semi-molten Al-Si based alloy material having solid and liquid phases coexisting therein; a step of pouring the semi-molten Al-Si based alloy material into a cavity in a casting mold under pressure; and a step of solidifying the semi-molten Al-Si based alloy material under pressure. When the temperature of a rise-start point in the first angled endothermic section is represented by T.sub.1, and the temperature of a drop-end point the first angled endothermic sections is represented by T.sub.2, the casting temperature T for the semi-molten Al-Si based alloy material is set in a range of T.sub.1 .ltoreq.T.ltoreq.T.sub.2. Thus, the fine precipitation of a primary crystal Si phase can be realized to provide an increase in strength of an aluminum alloy cast product.

A differential thermal analysis thermograph for a thixocasting aluminum alloy material is such that, a relationship, E.sub.1 >E.sub.2, is established between a peak value E.sub.1 of a first angled endothermic section generated by eutectic melting and a peak value E.sub.2 of a second angled endothermic section generated by melting of an element having a melting point higher than the eutectic point. Thus, a liquid phase produced by the eutectic melting has a large latent heat due to the fact that the peak value E.sub.1 of the first angled endothermic section is larger than the peak value E.sub.2 of the second angled endothermic section in a semi-molten eutectic aluminum alloy material derived from the thixocasting aluminum alloy material. As a result, in a solidification step of the thixocasting process, a liquid phase produced by the eutectic melting is sufficiently fed around a solid phase in response to the solidification and shrinkage of the solid phase, and then solidified. Thus, it is possible to produce a casting free from defects such as voids on the order of a micron.

In carrying out of a thixocasting process, a material in a semi-molten state is produced by heating an aluminum alloy material which has a thermal characteristic that a first angled endothermic section generated by the melting of a eutectic crystal and a second angled endothermic section generated by the melting of a component having a melting point higher than an eutectic point exist in a differential calorimetric curve. A start point of a primary pressing stage is established at a point when the temperature T of the material is in a range of T.sub.1

摘要:
In a thixocasting process, a casting material is subjected to a heating treatment to prepare a semi-molten casting material having solid and liquid phases coexisting therein, and then, the semi-molten casting material is poured into a cavity under a pressure. A through-hole for applying a constricting effect to the material is provided in a flow path for the semi-molten casting material leading to the cavity in a casting mold. A material deforming pressure P.sub.1 immediately before the semi-molten casting material flows into the through-hole is used as a parameter. For example, the material deforming pressure P.sub.1 is equal to or lower than 6.7 MPa, it is determined that the material is satisfactorily filled in the cavity.

A bottom structure of a personal watercraft enhances the running performance of a personal watercraft. A concavo-convex face (21) having very small concave or convex portions for drawing air from an outside of a watercraft is formed on a water contact face (S) in a bottom surface (20) of the personal watercraft during planing. The air is drawn by the concavo-convex face (21), thereby separating a water flow from the bottom surface (20). Consequently, frictional resistance to the water in the bottom surface (20) can be reduced.

The present invention relates to a dual-layer sintered valve seat ring having high stiffness and strength. The features of such ring are: fusion infiltration of Cu into the pores of a ferrous sintered body; hard alloy particles dispersed in the matrix of the valve seat body; the composition of the base and the ferrous sintered body; high density; and, diffusion of an alloying element of the hard particles around them and into the matrix.
