Problems solved by technology

[0004] Although the gears prepared in the prior art can meet the requirements of use, the heat treatment process is complicated, and the deformation is large during the heat treatment process, and problems such as structural defects and uneven penetration are prone to occur, which affect its performance.
In addition, for gears with complex structures such as internal gears with large helix angles, herringbone gears without undercuts, and double gears, it is difficult to process them with gear hobbing or gear shaping
Moreover, the surface hardness and fatigue strength of conventional carburizing and nitriding gears are still low, which limits the further improvement of gear wear resistance, power density and service life

Abstract

The invention provides a preparation method for a titanium alloy gear. The preparation method includes the steps that a titanium alloy gear substrate is prepared through a 3D printing method; the titanium alloy gear substrate is subjected to hot isostatic pressing treatment, and a titanium alloy gear blank is obtained; a hardened layer is formed on the surface of the titanium alloy gear blank through a fusion covering method, and the titanium alloy gear is obtained; and the thickness of the hardened layer is 1-2 mm. According to the preparation method for the titanium alloy gear, the mechanical properties of the gear substrate are improved through hot isostatic pressing treatment, and the thick hardened layer can be formed on the surface of the gear substrate through the fusion covering method. The titanium alloy gear prepared through the process is high in surface hardness, low in friction coefficient, resistant to abrasion, high in impact resistance and fatigue performance, and suitable for gear transmission equipment in the aerospace industry, automobile industry and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of gears, in particular to a titanium alloy gear and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Gear transmission is the most widely used transmission mechanism. With the development of modern industrial level, gear transmission is developing in two directions of low speed and heavy load and high speed and heavy load. The performance requirements of gears are getting higher and higher. It has the characteristics of high power density, long life and high reliability. [0003] The high-performance gears commonly used at present are generally made of low-carbon and medium-carbon alloy steel forgings, which are formed by hobbing or shaping, and then carburized and nitrided to obtain a surface hardened layer. Finally, the required gear design accuracy is achieved by grinding the teeth. . [0004] Although the gears prepared in the prior art can meet the requirements of use, the heat treatment p...
