(54) VALVE SEAT INSERTS OF SINTERED METAL
(71) We, BRICO ENGINEERING LIMITED, a British Company, of Holbrook Lane,
Coventry, CV6 4BG do hereby declare the invention. for which we pray that a patent may be granted to us, and the method by which it is to be performed, to be particular described in and by the following statement:
This invention relates to valve seat inserts made of sintered metal. The present application is divided out of British Patent Application No. 13/76, Serial No. 1580686.
According to the present invention, there is provided a valve seat insert made of sintered metal and having a composition within the range, in percentages by weight:- combined carbon 1.2% - 1.5%; copper 2.0 - 6.OC/o; molybdenum 0.8 - 1.2%; manganese, silicon, sulphur, phosphorus and other trace elements up to 2.0% in total; balance iron.
The valve seat insert may be machined to the desired dimensions subsequent to sintering.
Other secondary treatments, including heat-treatment, surface coating or secondary pressing, may be applied to the article. The presence of molybdenum within the limits stated confers enhanced response to heat-treatment by quenching, and added resistance at service temperatures which would otherwise cause tempering and loss of hardness.
A number of specific examples will now be described.
Metal powders essentially of less than 150 microns in size were selected as examples 1-9.
These powders plus a suitable lubricant. were pressed in a suitable powder metallurgy press with the pressure given in the example to form different articles as described below, the pressing resulting in compacts having the values of density given in Tables 1A and 1B. The compacts were then sintered at the temperature given in a protective atmosphere such as to avoid loss of carbon. or oxidation of the compact. Example 1 was sintered in an atmosphere of endothermic gas having a dew point of -10"C e.g. partially combusted hydro carbon air mixture (the hydrocarbon may be propane). Example 2 was sintered in an atmosphere of similar endothermic gas but having a dew point of -15 C. Example 3 was sintered in a similar atmosphere but having a dew point of -18 C.
It will be understood that the atmosphere must have a high carbon potential so that the atmosphere is in equilibrium with the carbon content of the compact. so that the latter does not decarburize considerablv during sintering; for example, using the same endothermic gas but with a dew point of () C would give a carbon potential which was too low, resulting in decarburization of the compact.
Instead of endothermic gas. other atmospheres may be used, e.g. cracked ammonia, having a dew point of -35 C or dry hydrogen. having a dew point of -6()0C, (these should be so chosen as to give no significant decarburization of the compact.).
The composition of each example is given in Tables 1A and 1B.

Example 1 was pressed to form a sealing ring. The sintered blank was machined to give the finished dimensions. The sealing ring was tested and has a Vickers hardness HV of 150, a ring tensile strength of 525MN/m-. and an Elasticity number of 118 GN/mZ.
Example 2 was pressed to form a automotive piston ring and machined after sintering.
The piston ring had a Vickers hardness HV of 180. a ring tensile strength of 433 MN/m-, and an Elasticitv Number of 125 GN/m2.
Examples 3,4 and 5 were pressed to form valve seat inserts. After sintering. sharp edges were removed by barrelling and the outside diameter was machined.
Example 3 had an average Vickers hardness HV5 of 200, and a 0.1% proof stress in compression of 570 MN/m2.
Example 4 had a Vickers hardness HV of 250 and a 0.1 proof stress in compression of 570 MN/m2.
Example 5 had a Vickers hardness HV of 310 and a (). I c4 proof stress in compression of 560 MN/m2.
Examples 6. 7. 8 and 9 had physical characteristics similar to those of Examples 1, 2, 3 and 4 respectively.
Comparative wear tests were also carried out between example 2 on the one hand, and typical grey cast iron piston ring material on the other. Piston rings made of the respective materials were bench tested for 500 hours in a number of 950 cc 4 cylinder engines.
The average diametral wear of the piston rings in the engines having the material of the composition of example 2 was 0.00052 inches, whereas the average wear of the piston rings in the engines having grey cast iron pistion rings was 0.00195 inches at the end of the test.
Thus it will be seen that the sintered piston rings had only about one quarter of the wear of the cast iron piston rings under the same conditions.
WHAT WE CLAIM lS:- 1. A valve seat insert made of sintered metal and having a composition within the range, in percentages by weight:- combined carbon 1.2 - 1.5%; copper 2.0 - 6.0%; molybdenum 0.8 - 1.2%; manganese, silicon, sulphur, phosphorus and other trace elements up to 2.0% in total; balance iron.
2. A valve seat insert as claimed in claim 1 and substantially as herein before described with reference to Example 4.
