Selectively Cold Worked Hydraulic Motor/Pump Shoe

View page
US Patent:
20050016801, Jan 27, 2005
Filed:
Aug 4, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/910320
Inventors:
Richard Rateick - South Bend IN, US
Larry Portolese - Granger IN, US
Assignee:
Honeywell International Inc., - Morristown NJ
International Classification:
F16D069/00
US Classification:
188255000
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a wear resistant shoe () includes upsetting () one end portion () of cylindrical member to work harden that portion to a substantial depth, machining () the cylindrical member portion to finished dimensions and surface hardening () a face (or ) of the machined cylindrical member portion. The cylindrical member may comprise rod stock of a diameter less than the greatest diameter of the finished shoe and be upset or swaged to axially reduce and radially increase the dimensions of the one end portion. A hollow region () is formed in an opposite rod stock end portion and the periphery () of the hollow region is crimped about a rounded end () of the piston (). The cold work done during the swaging or forming process provides a foundation for hardened faces comprising balance () and auxiliary balance () lands, forms a crude shape of the shoe, and imparts work hardening and wear property improvements. The harder metal surface provides a foundation for subsequent surface hardening such as coating with TiN. The crimping process used to join the shoe to the piston imparts cold work to the skirt region of the shoe and enhances the wear resistance of the shoe. The cold heading step () may be omitted if a hardened rod stock is used, but the skirt should be annealed () prior to crimping to the piston.

Filed:
Aug 27, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/892760
Inventors:
Viola I. Birss - Calgary, CA
Eric J. McLeod - Calgary, CA
Richard G. Rateick - South Bend IN, US
International Classification:
C25D 5/00
C25D 5/48
C25D 7/00
US Classification:
205 96, 205152, 205220
Abstract:
An anodization method includes steps of providing an object formed of an aluminum-copper alloy, providing an anodizing bath comprising a basic silicate solution, providing an AC power supply including a first electrode and a second electrode, placing the first electrode in contact with the anodizing bath, connecting the second electrode to the object, placing the object in the anodizing bath, applying a voltage to the first and second electrodes to maintain a current density of about 10 mA/cmor less to form an anodized coating on the object, removing the object from the bath, and sealing the anodized coating on the object.

Piston-To-Shoe Interface Lubrication Method

View page
US Patent:
20120210867, Aug 23, 2012
Filed:
Feb 21, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/031445
Inventors:
Richard Rateick - South Bend IN, US
William Scott Rowan - South Bend IN, US
Larry Portolese - Granger IN, US
Assignee:
HONEYWELL INTERNATIONAL INC. - Morristown NJ
International Classification:
F01B 31/10
US Classification:
92159
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus are provided for lubricating a piston-to-shoe interface in a hydraulic motor or pump. Piston assemblies are installed in a housing that are each adapted to receive a reciprocating drive force and are each configured, in response thereto, to cyclically move between an intake direction and a discharge direction. Each piston assembly includes a piston and a piston shoe, and the piston, the piston shoe, or both have a plurality of pockets formed in a surface that defines a piston-to-shoe interface. When the pistons cyclically move, liquid is supplied to each piston-to-shoe interface to form a hydrostatic bearing at each piston-to-shoe interface. A portion of the liquid that is supplied to each piston-to-shoe interface is selectively supplied to and from one or more of the plurality of pockets.

Method For Making Parts Usable In A Fuel Environment

View page
US Patent:
57284750, Mar 17, 1998
Filed:
Aug 23, 1996
Appl. No.:
8/702090
Inventors:
Richard George Rateick - South Bend IN
Assignee:
AlliedSignal Inc. - Morristown NJ
International Classification:
B32B 1504
C23C 804
C23C 868
C23C 880
US Classification:
428469
Abstract:
A piston shoe (10) of an axial piston pump or motor is crimped to an annular piston head (42) and has a flat shoe wear surface (12) that contacts a cam plate (22). A back flange (14) of the shoe (10) also wears against an auxilliary cam plate (24). In order for the piston shoe (10) to operate within a fuel environment, the piston shoe (10) must be corrosion resistant, compatible with fuel, and provide the desired wear resistance. The piston shoe (10) is made of a cold workable cobalt based alloy which is compatible with fuel and provides corrosion resistance. The wear surface (12) which bears against the cam plate (22) and the back flange (14) which bears against the auxilliary cam plate (24) are provided with a thermal diffusion boride treatment which provides the desired wear resistance. In order to restore sufficient ductility to flange (16) of the shoe (10) that will be cold worked, a solution treatment is performed at a temperature range of 2050. degree. to 2250. degree. F. in a non-oxidizing environment.
