A method of manufacturing a radial flow turbine rotor is disclosed, which comprises the steps of injection molding a rotor body including a conical shaft and a plurality of blades formed on the periphery of the shaft and at an angle to the axis of the shaft from a ceramic material using a mold having parting lines corresponding to blade edges such that projections are formed on the blade edges, sintering the molding thus obtained, and grinding the edge surfaces of the blades facing a casing. The blades are thus provided with projections on their inlet and outlet edges which face a fluid passage.

Method of manufacturing radial flow turbine rotor

A cylinder liner for use in an internal combustion engine which is formed of ceramic material having a density higher than 95% of theoretical value and a randomly directed and homogeneous structure. The ceramic liner is composed of silicon nitride, silicon carbide, an oxynitride such as silicon oxynitride and silicon aluminum oxynitride, silicon nitride-silicon carbide or aluminum nitride.

A curved blade rotor for a radial inflow turbo supercharger which is made of ceramic material and having a plurality of curved blades each with a curved outer edge. The surface roughness of the curved outer edge is 0.8S to 2S wherein 'S' indicates surface roughness according to Japanese Industrial Standard B 0601.

A valve for an internal combustion engine formed of ceramic material for resistance to corrosion, heat and wear. The valve may include a valve tip, a lock groove, a valve stem, a valve fillet, a valve face, a valve margin and a valve head. Certain portions of the valve, such as the valve tip, the lock groove and the valve stem may, alternatively, be formed of metal. The ceramic material includes, among other compositions, silicon nitride, silicon carbide, aluminum nitride, silicon oxynitride, silicon aluminum oxynitride and silicon nitride-silicon carbide.

Valve for an internal combustion engine

A silicon nitride based sintered product produced by sintering a powder mixture consisting essentially of silicon nitride, at least one oxide of yttrium, scandium, cerium, lanthanum and the metals of lanthanide series and at least one metal or metal oxide of iron, nickel and cobalt.

A rotor-shaft assembly comprising a ceramic turbine rotor, a metal shaft and a metal connector disposed between the rotor and the shaft. The metal connector is fixed to the rotor by some suitable means and coupled with the metal shaft by mutual engagement of teeth provided at the ends of the connector and the shaft.

Rotor-shaft assembly

A pump member for molten metal manufactured from a sintered mass including aluminium nitride as a major component and 0.1 to 10% by weight of at least one oxide selected from the group consisting of oxides of Group IIIA elements of the Periodic Table.
