Abstract
A subject of the present invention is to provide a water based hydraulic fluid and a hydraulic pressure device able to prevent burning and wearing in a sliding portion of a member constructed by an iron-based material as much as possible. Therefore, the water based hydraulic fluid relative to the invention contains copper ions for forming a film on addendum surfaces of a drive gear and a driven gear constructed by the iron-based material. A gear pump as the hydraulic pressure device relative to the invention uses the water based hydraulic fluid containing metallic ions for forming the film on the addendum surfaces of the drive gear and the driven gear constructed by the iron-based material.
Claims4
A hydraulic pressure device having two members made of an iron-based material, the two members respectively having opposing sliding portions that face one another, and a water based hydraulic fluid consisting essentially of a sufficient amount of metallic ions arranged between the sliding portions of the two members for reducing friction between the two sliding portions of the two members during operation of the hydraulic pressure device.
