Hollow composite magnetic member, process for producing same, and fuel ejection valve
There is provided a hollow composite magnetic member obtained by partially reforming a hollow member which is formed of a ferromagnetic material containing Cr of 15 mass % or more and 18 mass % or less, in which the reformed portion includes an alloy containing Cr of 8 mass % or more and 18 mass % and Ni of 6.5 mass % or more and 50 mass % or less. Accordingly, a hollow composite magnetic member having a small width of the nonmagnetic portion and a fuel injection valve having the same can be provided.
1. A device comprising:
a hollow composite magnetic member which is formed of a ferromagnetic material containing Cr, wherein
the hollow composite magnetic member includes a reformed portion in a portion thereof,
the reformed portion includes an alloy containing Cr of 8 mass % or more and 18 mass % or less and Ni of 35.1 mass % or more and 50 mass % or less, and
at an applied magnetic field of 1.6×10 6 A/m: i) a saturated magnetization value of the ferromagnetic material is a t least 1.0 T, and ii) a saturated magnetization value of the reformed portion is less than 0.6 T.
2. The device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the hollow composite magnetic member has a pipe shape of which a cross-sectional shape is a circular shape.
3. The device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the reformed portion has a characteristic in which a standard deviation of the concentration of Cr is 1 or less and a standard deviation of the concentration of Ni is 5 or less with respect to standard deviations of the concentrations of Cr and Ni in five areas of 100 μm square arbitrarily selected in the cross section.
4. The device according to claim 3 ,
wherein a mixing portion generated by the influence of heat is provided on a portion adjacent to the reformed portion, and
wherein the width of the heat treatment portion including the reformed portion and the mixing portion in the longitudinal direction is less than 5 mm.
