Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A film forming method forms a coating film on a workpiece having at least two film-deposited portions which are not continuous with each other by moving a nozzle of a cold spray device relative to each other along a continuous movement trajectory. The movement trajectory includes at least two trajectories corresponding to the film-deposited portions and a connecting trajectory linking the trajectories of the film-deposited portions. The film-deposited portions are formed by continuously spraying a raw material powder from the nozzle by cold spraying to form a coating film on each of the plurality of film-deposited portions. A turnback point of the spraying is set on the connecting trajectory where a relative speed between the workpiece and the nozzle decreases in the movement trajectory.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A film forming method for forming a coating film on a workpiece having at least two film-deposited portions which are not continuous with each other, the film forming method comprising: moving a nozzle of a cold spray device relative to the workpiece along a continuous movement trajectory including trajectories of the film-deposited portions and a connecting trajectory linking the trajectories of the film-deposited portions while continuously spraying a raw material powder from the nozzle, continuously spraying the raw material powder from the nozzle by cold spraying to form a coating film on each of the film-deposited portions by the moving of the nozzle along the trajectories for the film-deposited portions, and the spraying of the raw material powder by cold spraying to form the coating film on a surface of the workpiece extending between one of the film-deposited portions and another the film-deposited portions by the movement of the nozzle along the connecting trajectory; and setting a turnback point on the connecting trajectory where a relative speed between the workpiece and the nozzle decreases in the movement trajectory. 2 . The film forming method according to claim 1 , wherein the turnback point on the connecting trajectory is set where the relative speed between the workpiece and the nozzle reaches zero in the movement trajectory. 3 . The film forming method according to claim 1 , wherein the film-deposited portions are entire peripheries of openings of intake ports or exhaust ports of a cylinder head, and the turnback points are set on a surface of the cylinder head that attaches to a cylinder block. 4 . The film forming method according to claim 1 , further comprising increasing a distance between the nozzle and the film-deposited portions at the turnback point. 5 . The film forming method according to claim 1 , wherein the setting of the turnback point on the connecting trajectory is set upstream from a film formation starting point of the film-deposited portions, and turnback points are set at a film formation finishing point of the film-deposited portions on the trajectories of the film-deposited portions.
