Problems solved by technology

However, shot peening is a surface strengthening method that mainly introduces residual compressive stress to the surface of metal components. The existence of residual compressive stress reduces the stress level and ultimately improves the fatigue life of components. However, residual stress is easy to release, the energy conversion rate is low, and the effect of fatigue life extension is significantly lower than that of the strengthening method with grain refinement as the main strengthening mechanism
Disadvantages of shot peening: 1) Due to the irregular bombardment of a large number of shot particles on the metal surface, the roughness of the processed surface becomes larger, and even micro-cracks are generated, which makes the local stress concentration on the surface of the component and reduces the fatigue life
2) For some metal welded components with irregular shapes such as fillet welds, shot peening is a very effective surface strengthening method, but for some butt welded metal components with regular shapes, the shot peening ability is slightly insufficient
3) The surface roughness of shot peening components is difficult to control

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for prolonging fatigue life of welded joints, and belongs to the technical field of surface strengthening processing for improving the fatigue performance of metal welds. This method adopts surface spinning strengthening technology to carry out surface strengthening processing on welded joints to obtain metal surface structure with hardness gradient, realize surface strengthening and hardening of metal welded joints, and process smooth surface at the same time, which reduces the level of stress concentration and stress concentration on the surface of welded components. Post-weld residual stress levels. When metal welded components serve under cyclic loads, the initiation of fatigue cracks from the surface of welded joints can be inhibited after spinning, thereby improving the fatigue performance of metal welded joints.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of surface strengthening processing for improving the fatigue performance of metal welds, in particular to a fatigue life extension method for welded joints. Background technique [0002] With the continuous development of lightweight high-speed trains, improving the safety and reliability of key train components has become an indispensable key scientific issue. For a large number of key components of high-speed trains, welding is an important forming technology. Therefore, improving the reliability of these welded components has become an important link to ensure the safety and reliability of trains. According to statistics, high-speed trains have as many as 38 kinds of welds, the thinnest is 2mm, and the thickest is 17mm. Due to the large local input of energy during the welding forming process, the microstructure of the weld area changes. Due to the non-uniformity of the structure and mechanical properti...
