摘要:
A surface treating process according to the present invention, a vapor deposited film is formed from an easily oxidizable vapor-depositing material on the surface of a work by evaporating the vapor-depositing material in a state in which the vapor deposition controlling gas has been supplied to at least zones near a melting/evaporating source and the work within a treating chamber. Thus, the vapor deposited film can be formed stably on the surface of a desired work without requirement of a long time for providing a high degree of vacuum and without use of a special apparatus. In addition, the use of the surface treating process ensures that a corrosion resistance can be provided to a rare earth metal-based permanent magnet extremely liable to be oxidized, without degradation of a high magnetic characteristic of the magnet. A surface treating apparatus according to the present invention includes a melting/evaporating source for melting and evaporating a wire-shaped vapor-depositing material containing a vapor deposition controlling gas, and a member for retaining a work on which the vapor-depositing material is deposited. The melting/evaporating source and the work retaining member are disposed in a treating chamber of the surface treating chamber. The apparatus further includes a vapor-depositing material supply means for supplying the wire-shaped vapor-depositing material containing the vapor deposition controlling gas to the melting-evaporating source.

With the deposited-film forming apparatus according to the first embodiment of the present invention, the distance between the tubular barrel and the evaporating section can be varied, unlike the prior art deposited-film forming apparatus and hence, the efficient formation of the deposited film on the surface of each of the work pieces accommodated in the tubular barrel and the inhibition of the softening of the formed film can be achieved simultaneously. Therefore, it is possible to inhibit the damaging of the deposited film formed on the surface of each of the work pieces and the production of projections on the deposited film, and to form a deposited film at a high quality in respect of a corrosion resistance and the like and at low cost.With the deposited-film forming apparatus according to the second embodiment of the present invention, the distance between the accommodating section defined in the tubular barrel and the evaporating section can be varied and hence, this deposited-film forming apparatus also exhibits an effect similar to that in the deposited-film forming apparatus according to the first embodiment of the present invention.

摘要:
A method of inhibiting production of projections in a metal deposited-film according to the present invention is characterized by using a vapor deposition apparatus comprising, in a vacuum-treating chamber, an evaporating section for a depositing material, and an accommodating member and/or a holding member for accommodation and/or hold of work pieces, respectively, and, in depositing a metal depositing material on each of the surface of the work pieces with the accommodating member and/or the holding member being made rotated about the horizontal rotational axis thereof, carrying out vapor deposition with a Vickers hardness of a film formed on each of the surface of the work pieces maintained at 25 or more. According to the present invention, production of projections in a metal deposited-film can be effectively inhibited when forming the metal deposited-film of aluminum, zinc or the like on the surface of a work piece such as a rare earth metal-based permanent magnet.
摘要:
The present invention provides a process for producing a rare earth metal-based permanent magnet having, on its surface, a corrosion-resistant film containing inorganic fine particles having a specific average particle size and dispersed in a film phase formed from a silicon compound. In a heat treatment for forming a film by a hydrolyzing reaction and a thermally decomposing reaction of the silicon compound, followed by a polymerizing reaction, a stress is generated within the film by the shrinkage of the film. In the corrosion-resistant film formed by the producing process according to the present invention, however, such stress is dispersed by the presence of the inorganic fine particles and hence, the generation of physical defects such as cracks is inhibited. In addition, voids between the adjacent inorganic fine particles are filled with the film phase formed from the silicon compound and hence, the formed film is dense. Further, no alkali ions are contained in the film and hence, the film itself is excellent in corrosion resistance. Yet further, the film has an excellent close adhesion to the magnet achieved by an excellent reactivity with the surface of the magnet.

A hollow work having a hole communicating with the outside and a fine metal powder producing material are placed into a treating vessel, where the fine metal powder producing material is brought into flowing contact with the surface of the work, thereby adhering a fine metal powder produced from the fine metal powder producing material to the surface of the work. The hollow work may be a ring-shaped bonded magnet. Thus, a film having an excellent corrosion resistance can be formed without use of a third component such as a resin and a coupling agent by providing an electric conductivity to the entire surface of the magnet, i.e., not only to the outer surface (including end faces) but also to the inner surface of the magnet and subjecting the magnet to an electroplating treatment.

The present invention provides an Fe—B—R based permanent magnet, which has a chemical conversion coating film formed on its surface with an aluminum film interposed therebetween, the chemical conversion coating film containing at least one of titanium and zirconium, phosphorus, oxygen and fluorine as constituting elements, and a process for producing such an Fe—B—R based permanent magnet. In the permanent magnet, the chemical conversion coating film is adhered firmly to the magnet with the aluminum film interposed therebetween and hence, the magnet is excellent in corrosion resistance. Even if the magnet is left to stand for a long time under high-temperature and high-humidity conditions of a temperature of 80° C. and a relative humidity of 90%, the magnet exhibits a stable high magnetic characteristic which cannot deteriorate. Moreover, the film is free from hexa-valent chromium.
