摘要:
A bearing steel includes 0.70 to 0.93 wt % of C, 0.15 to 0.50 wt % of Si, 0.50 to 1.10 wt % of Mn and 0.3 to 0.65 wt % of Cr, with the balance being Fe and incidental impurities, and it has the ratio Cr/C specified to fall within 0.4 to 0.7. Because of these compositional features, the generation of macro carbides is prevented and the need to perform soaking at high temperature for a prolonged time is eliminated. Further, the bearing steel saves the materials cost and the overall cost of heat treatments in the manufacture of bearings and which yet is capable of satisfying the requirements of various characteristics of bearings, as well as a rolling bearing that employs the bearing steel.

At least any one of a bearing member (inner race, outer race and rolling element) is formed with a steel material containing 0.2 to 1.2 wt % of C, 0.7 to 1.5 wt % of Si, 0.5 to 1.5 wt % of Mo, 0.5 to 2.0 wt % of Cr, and 12 ppm or less of O. The bearing member is treated with carbonitriding, and thereafter, quenching and tempering so as to provide carbon concentration in the steel surface being 0.8 to 1.3 wt % and nitrogen concentration on the same being 0.2 to 0.8 wt %.

An object of this invention is to provide a rolling bearing in which, as for the rolling elements, it is unnecessary to employ a high level heat treatment such as carburizing or carbonitriding which requires a long period of time to achieve, and which is sufficiently long in service life even when used with a lubricant containing foreign matters. In a rolling bearing, the amount of residual austenite (.gamma..sub.R vol %) in the surface layer of at least one of the inner and outer races is in a range of 25 to 40 vol %, and the surface hardness (Hv) thereof meets the following condition:-4.7.times.(.gamma..sub.R vol %)+900.ltoreq.Hv.ltoreq.-4.7.times.(.gamma..sub.R vol %)+1000and the hardness of the rolling elements combined with the inner and outer races is higher by H.sub.R C 1 to 2 than that of the one of the inner and outer races.

A rolling bearing intended for longer life by improving seizure resistance and wear resistance in the circumstance with slip contact or in the circumstance where lubricant tends to be exhausted, which is manufactured by applying carburization or carbonitridation to an Si-added material to disperse and precipitate carbides or carbonitrides containing Si or Si—X (X=one or more of Mn, Mo, and Cr) thereby improving the seizure resistance and the wear resistance by the self-lubrication effect thereof, the size of the carbides or carbonitrides being preferably 10 μm or less for preventing flaking, and the area ratio for the carbides or carbonitrides being preferably 1.0–30% for obtaining sufficient self-lubrication effect.
摘要:
At least one of input/output disks, a power roller and a cam disk of a toroidal type continuously variable transmission is formed of a high-cleanness steel in which a size of a maximum inclusion is estimated by the following extremum statistical process. In step S1, a plane including a central line of the high-cleanness steel is cut out in a direction of rolling of the high-cleanness steel. In step S2, a portion d of the cut-out cross-section, which is defined by 40% of a diameter D in the vicinity of the central line, is used as a to-be-tested surface. In step S3, a test reference area S.sub.0 is set at an area not less than 300 mm.sup.2 within the to-be-tested surface, and a root of an area of the maximum inclusion is measured five times or more. In step S4, a maximum inclusion distribution straight line is obtained. In step S5, the root, that is, the size of the area of the maximum inclusion within an estimation area S is estimated.

A rolling bearing has races and a rolling element. At least one of the races and the rolling element is made of a carburized or carbonitrided alloy steel. The content of a fine carbide present in the surface layer of the one element of the rolling bearing is 20-50 vol %. The content of retained austenite in the surface layer is 10-25 vol %. The rolling bearing provides a long-life rolling bearing suitable for use in a transmission and engine.

A rolling bearing for belt-type continuously variable transmission with a metal belt including pieces has an inner ring; an outer ring; and rolling elements, wherein at least one of the inner ring, the outer ring and the rolling element is made of an iron alloy having a chromium content of from 2.5 to 20.0% by weight.

The centerline average roughness of the raceway surface of at least the fixed ring of bearing rings is controlled to be 0.025 to 0.075 μmRa, thereby suppressing the rotation slip of the rolling elements so as to prevent flaking that is accompanied by a structural change. This enables prolongation of the life of bearings. At least the fixed ring of the bearing rings contains, as alloy ingredients at a ratio of from 0.50 to 1.20% by mass of carbon, from 0.10 to 1.50% by mass of silicon, from 0.1 to 2.0% by mass of manganese, from 3.0 to 6.0% by mass of chromium, 2.0% by mass or less of molybdenum, and 1.0% by mass or less of vanadium, whereby the necessary hardness is obtained and the structure is stabilized. This enables prolongation of the life of bearings.
