Abstract
Abstract If cemented carbide products such as hot rolling-mill rolls, plugs and dies can be made of the powder reclaimed from scrapped cemented carbide products and the virgin powder of cemented carbide, it is possible to obtain cemented carbide products lower in price and capable of meeting the requirements of severe working conditions.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
55 words
Cemented carbide products made by a method in which a compact of virgin powder of WC-based cemented carbide and a compact of the powder reclaimed from cemented carbide scrap are united together and sintered to produce a metallic bond in the boundary zone between the two compacts, thereby perfectly integrating them into a single unit.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
30 words
The cemented carbide products as in claim 1 in which the virgin powder of WC-based cemented carbide is used in the part extending as deep as the allowable wear limits.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
33 words
The cemented carbide products as in claim 1 in which the virgin powder of WC-based cemented carbide is used in the part of the minimum required area of surface and the corresponding thickness.
Claim 4
Independent Claim
106 words
A method of manufacturing cemented carbide products, in which a compact of the virgin powder of cemented carbide and a compact of the powder reclaimed from cemented carbide scrap are integrated by sintering into a single unit, characterized in that one of the two raw material powders is prepressed by a compacting press into the desired shape of compact and then the other powder is packed around it, they are pressed together to obtain a compact in which the aforementioned two compacts are united one outside other, the united compact is heat-treated to remove the binder and then sintered to be integrated into a single unit.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
22 words
A method of manufacturing cemented carbide products as in claim 4 in which the rubber press is used as a compacting press.
Claim 6
Independent Claim
105 words
A method of manufacturing cemented carbide products, in which a compact of the virgin powder of WC-based cemented carbide and a compact of the powder reclaimed from cemented carbide scrap are integrated by sintering into a single unit, characterized in that the two raw material powders are press-formed separately to obtain two compacts which can be united together, one of which has a lower contraction coefficient than that of the other, the two compacts are united together with the one of lower contraction coefficient inside the other compact with a high contraction coefficient, and then they are sintered to be integrated into a single unit.
Claim 7
Independent Claim
101 words
A method of manufacturing cemented carbide products, in which a compact of the virgin powder of WC-based cemented carbide and a compact of the powder reclaimed from cemented carbide scrap are integrated by sintering into a single unit, characterized in that the two raw material powders are pressformed separately to obtain two compacts which can united together, one of which has a lower contraction coefficient than that of the other, the compact with a lower contraction coefficient is first sintered, the other compact is set outside the sintered compact and they are sintered together to be integrated into a single unit.
