Process for producing a thermally coated cylinder bearing surface having an end bevel
In a process for producing a thermally coated cylinder bearing surface having an end bevel, a cylinder crankcase is cast, those surfaces of the subsequent cylinder barrels which are to be thermally coated are roughened, the cylinder barrels are coated by a thermal spraying process, and the cylinder barrels are remachined to their final dimensions. The cylinder bore is provided with an end bevel on the crankshaft side.
1 . A process for producing a thermally coated cylinder bearing surface having an end bevel, in which process a cylinder crankcase is cast, those surfaces of the subsequent cylinder barrels which are to be thermally coated are roughened, the cylinder barrels are coated by a thermal spraying process, and the cylinder barrels are remachined to their final dimensions, comprising providing a coated cylinder barrel with an end bevel on a crankshaft side.
2 . The process as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the coated cylinder barrel of the cylinder crankcase is provided with an end bevel in the region of a crankshaft exit side.
3 . The process as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising roughening a region of a crankshaft cylinder outlet that will subsequently be the cylinder or the cylinder bearing surface.
4 . The process as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the end bevel is formed in such a manner that there is no coating material at a transition from the end bevel to what will subsequently be a crankshaft space.
5 . The process as claimed in claim 1 , wherein coating material is at least partially removed from a crankshaft-side part of the cylinder crankcase after introducing the end bevel.
6 . The process as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the cylinder barrel is machined to its final dimension after the end bevel has been introduced.
7 . The process as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the coated cylinder bore is pre-processed, wherein the end bevel is subsequently introduced, wherein the crankshaft space is then finish-machined, and wherein the cylinder bore is next machined to its final dimension in at least one step.
8 . The process as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a circular milling cutter is used to form the end bevel, and wherein disposable cutting tool tips simultaneously allow reaming of a honed passage to its final dimension and formation of the end bevel in the same operation.
9 . The process as claimed in claim 8 , wherein during axial orientation of the circular milling cutter, the circular milling cutter is simultaneously at least partially lowered into the cylinder bore.
10 . The process as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a cone mounted in universally jointed fashion is used to form the end bevel, and wherein the cone has, at its introduction end side, a guide pin, an external effective diameter of which is selected in such a manner that in terms of machining tolerances it corresponds at most to a smallest clear width of the coated cylinder barrel.
11 . The process as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the guide pin of the cone is a honing tool.
12 . The process as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the guide pin of the cone is provided with radially moveable and adjustable cutting edges of a honing tool.
13 . The process as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the guide pin, in a region of what will subsequently be the end bevel, is placed against the cylinder barrel, oriented at an inclination with respect to a longitudinal axis of the latter, and wherein the cone, after at least one of a floating, vibrating, and shaking orientation, is oriented parallel to the longitudinal axis of the cylinder barrel.
14 . The process as claimed in claim 1 , wherein machining of the end bevel is carried out in a chip-forming manner, a chip-forming tool being guided in such a manner that respective cutting edges penetrate into layer material which is to be removed from the outside.
15 . The process as claimed in claim 1 , wherein machining of the end bevel is carried out in a chip-forming manner, with a chip-forming tool being rotated in the cylinder in such a manner that a direction of rotation about its own axis corresponds to a direction of rotation of the tool along the cylinder outlet.
16 . The process as claimed in claim 13 , wherein the cone is aligned with the longitudinal axis after the orientation.
17 . The process as claimed in claim 2 , further comprising roughening a region of a crankshaft cylinder outlet that will subsequently be the cylinder or the cylinder bearing surface.
18 . The process as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the end bevel is formed in such a manner that there is no coating material at a transition from the end bevel to what will subsequently be a crankshaft space.
19 . The process as claimed in claim 2 , wherein coating material is at least partially removed from a crankshaft-side part of the cylinder crankcase after introducing the end bevel.
20 . The process as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the cylinder barrel is machined to its final dimension after the end bevel has been introduced.
