Abstract
A method for manufacturing the roller carrier of a vibration balance device, the roller carrier is installed with at least one round track around a rotary axis thereof for carrying a plurality of rollers; characterized in that: the roller carrier is made of ceramic powder and made by a process of ceramic powder metallurgy. The material of the powder is A92A aluminum oxide or zirconium oxide, or other proper metal oxide. The manufacturing process of the ceramic powder metallurgy includes the steps of: feeding material, compacting, sintering, and polishing, or other manufacturing process of the ceramic powder metallurgy can be used, which includes the steps of feeding material, pelletizing, injection molding, debinding, sintering, and polishing. The roller carrier from aforementioned processes uses less materials, can be mass-produced, has a precise dimension, is light weighted, has a smooth surface and has a high surface hardness. In other word, the roller carrier made from the manufacturing process of ceramic powder metallurgy not only has preferred physical properties, such as good hardness, smoothness and precision, but also can reduce the vibration from the eccentricity of rotation and prolong the lifetime. Moreover, the manufacturing cost can be reduced greatly and yield is increased. Therefore, the present invention is economical.
