Patent number: 8236088Abstract: Providing a metal mold repair method and a metal mold repair paste agent which are capable of repairing cracks with simple work. A repair paste agent containing components that become an alloy is directly applied to a surface of a metal mold having a crack so as to cover the crack part, subsequently a surface of the repair paste agent is coated with an oxidation inhibitor and the repair paste agent is made to penetrate the inside of the crack by heating and becomes an alloy, thereby filling up the crack.Type: GrantFiled: March 3, 2011Date of Patent: August 7, 2012Assignee: Honda Motor Co., Ltd.Inventors: Michiharu Hasegawa, Noriyuki Miyazaki, Masafumi Nakamura, Naoji Yamamoto, Kazuo Ueda

Publication number: 20090314448Abstract: A method for producing a metal material involves applying, to the surface of the ZAS alloy, an agent comprising a solvent and, dispersed therein, a material containing Cu such as Cu powder and a Cu—Mn alloy powder and preferably, dispersed or dissolved therein, a reducing agent capable of reducing an oxide film present on the surface of the ZAS alloy, and heating the ZAS alloy having the agent applied thereon, to thereby diffuse Cu into the alloy. The metal material comprises a Zn—Al—Sn based alloy (ZAS alloy) and Cu diffused in the alloy, wherein Cu is diffused into the inside of the alloy to a depth from the surface of 0.5 mm or more, the concentration of Cu decreases from the surface of the ZAS alloy towards the inside thereof, and there is present no specific interface between Cu and the ZAS alloy.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 26, 2009Publication date: December 24, 2009Inventors: Mitsuo Kuwabara, Tadashi Okada, Naoji Yamamoto, Masahito Hasuike, Michiharu Hasegawa, Tetsuaki Aoki, Masanori Kogawa, Kazunori Sakamoto, Keizou Tanoue

Patent number: 7600556Abstract: A method of the surface treatment of a mold for casting, which comprises subjecting a cavity surface of a fixed mold made by the use of a SCM420 material to first shot peening, a sulfurizing-nitriding treatment and second shot peening. The resulting cavity surface of the fixed mold exhibits a high hardness of 700 or higher in terms of Vickers hardness due to the presence of a sulfurized and nitrided layer, and further has a compression residual stress of more than 1200 Mpa and a largest height, which is a surface roughness value defined by JIS standard, of 8 ?m or less.Type: GrantFiled: October 28, 2003Date of Patent: October 13, 2009Assignee: Honda Motor Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hiroaki Koyama, Yasuhiro Shimamura, Toshihiro Miyauchi, Michiharu Hasegawa, Fumitaka Miyagawa

Patent number: 7497243Abstract: A mold for casting primarily of SMC420, wherein a cavity forming portion comprising maraging steel, which has the toughness and the resistance to heat shock superior to those of SMC420, is provided in a vertical wall heading for a cavity surface from a molten metal inlet and a portion nearest to the molten metal inlet in the cavity surface, which are portions suffering relatively large heat shock in the contact with a molten metal. Also provided is a method for providing the cavity forming portion, which comprises filling a concave portion of the mold with a molten metal prepared by melting a welding rod by arc welding, in other words, carrying out an overlaying welding, and then cooling and solidifying the molten metal.Type: GrantFiled: October 28, 2003Date of Patent: March 3, 2009Assignee: Honda Motor Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hiroaki Koyama, Toshihiro Miyauchi, Yasuhiro Shimamura, Michiharu Hasegawa, Naoji Yamamoto, Masahito Hasuike, Noriyuki Miyazaki, Hiroaki Tohyama
