  • Patent number: 12123177
    Abstract: A composite tooth is described for working the ground or rocks. The tooth includes a ferrous alloy having a portion reinforced at least partially by an insert. The portion reinforced by the insert is configured to allow, after in-situ reaction, the obtention of an alternating macro-microstructure of millimetric areas concentrated with micrometric globular particles of titanium carbides separated by millimetric areas substantially free of micrometric globular particles of titanium carbides. The millimetric areas concentrated with micrometric globular particles of titanium carbides form a microstructure in which the micrometric interstices between the globular particles are also filled by the ferrous alloy. The macro-microstructure generated by the insert is at least 2 mm, preferably at least 3 mm from a distal surface of the tooth.

  • Publication number: 20230211412
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a wear part made in a foundry. The wear part has a reinforced portion comprising a ferrous alloy reinforced with metal carbides, nitrides, borides, or intermetallic alloys. The reinforced portion includes inserts of metal carbides, nitrides, metal, or intermetallic compounds manufactured beforehand with a defined geometry and inserted into an infiltrable structure of agglomerated grains including the reagents needed for the formation of metal or intermetallic carbides, nitrides, borides according to an in situ self-propagating thermal reaction initiated during the casting of the ferrous alloy.

  • Publication number: 20230201920
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a hierarchical wear part including a reinforced portion comprising zirconia or an alumina-zirconia alloy. The reinforced portion also includes centimetric inserts with a predefined geometry. The inserts include micrometric particles of metal carbides, nitrides, borides, or intermetallic compounds bonded by a first metal matrix. The inserts are inserted into a reinforcement structure infiltrated by a second metal matrix, the reinforcement structure having a periodic alternation of millimetric areas of high and low concentration of micrometric particles of zirconia or alumina-zirconia alloy. The second metal matrix is different from the first metal matrix.
