Abstract: A high strength titanium alloy member with superior fatigue resistance, and a production method therefor, are provided. The production method includes preparing a raw material made of titanium alloy, nitriding the raw material to form a nitrogen-containing raw material by generating a nitrogen compound layer and/or a nitrogen solid solution layer in a surface layer of the raw material, mixing the raw material and the nitrogen-containing raw material to yield a nitrogen-containing mixed material, sintering the nitrogen-containing mixed material to obtain a sintered titanium alloy member by bonding the material together and uniformly diffusing nitrogen in solid solution from the nitrogen-containing raw material to the entire interior portion of the sintered titanium alloy member, hot plastic forming and/or heat treating the sintered titanium alloy member to obtain a processed member, and surface treating the processed member to provide compressive residual stress.

Abstract: A production method for a titanium alloy member includes preparing a titanium alloy material for sintering as a raw material of a sintered body; nitriding the titanium alloy material for sintering, thereby forming a nitrogen compound layer and/or a nitrogen solid solution layer in a surface layer of the titanium alloy material for sintering and yielding a nitrogen-containing titanium alloy material for sintering; mixing the titanium alloy material for sintering and the nitrogen-containing titanium alloy material for sintering, thereby yielding a titanium alloy material for sintering mixed with nitrogen-containing titanium alloy material; sintering the titanium alloy material for sintering mixed with nitrogen-containing titanium alloy material, thereby bonding the material each other and dispersing nitrogen contained in the nitrogen-containing titanium alloy material for sintering in a condition in which nitrogen is uniformly dispersed into an entire inner portion of the sintered body by solid solution.

Abstract: A titanium alloy member with high strength and high proof stress not only in the surface but also inside, using a general and inexpensive ?-? type titanium alloy, and a production method therefor, are provided. The production method includes preparing a raw material made of titanium alloy, nitriding the raw material to form a nitrogen-containing raw material by generating a nitrogen compound layer and/or a nitrogen solid solution layer in a surface layer of the raw material, mixing the raw material and the nitrogen-containing raw material to yield a nitrogen-containing mixed material, sintering the nitrogen-containing mixed material to obtain a sintered titanium alloy member by bonding the material together and uniformly diffusing nitrogen in solid solution from the nitrogen-containing raw material to the entire interior portion of the sintered titanium alloy member, and hot plastic forming the sintered titanium alloy member.

Abstract: A high-strength magnesium alloy member is suitable for products in which at least one of bending stress and twisting stress primarily acts. The member has required elongation and 0.2% proof stress, whereby strength and formability are superior, and has higher strength and large compressive residual stress in the vicinity of the surface of a wire rod. In the magnesium alloy member formed as a wire rod in which at least one of bending stress and twisting stress primarily acts, the wire rod includes a surface portion having the highest hardness of 170 HV or more in the vicinity of the surface and an inner portion having a 0.2% proof stress of 550 MPa or more and an elongation of 5% or more, and the wire rod has the highest compressive residue stress in the vicinity of the surface of 50 MPa or more.

Abstract: A magnet plate used for a rotor core of a motor, includes a magnetic pole portion being set between an outer peripheral edge of a body portion and a magnet slot and having a radial width being smaller than a radial sectional width of the permanent magnet, and a higher hardness portion being formed into a hook shape along an end corner of the magnet slot and have a smaller width than the radial sectional width of the permanent magnet.
