Abstract

The invention provides a heat treatment process of alloy spring steel. The process comprises the steps of performing preheating, heating, isothermal spheroidizing annealing, quenching, cooling, medium-temperature tempering, two times of shot blasting treatment and processing inspecting on a steel billet. According to the method, the temperature of isothermal spheroidizing annealing is controlled to be 650-700 DEG C, and the annealing time is 2-3 hours, so that the phenomenon that part of carbide cannot be fully spheroidized is avoided, the hardness of the spring steel is reduced to 32-48 HRC,the problem that deforming or cracking is prone to occur in subsequent heat treatment is solved, the corresponding tensile strength is reduced to 1810-1930 MPa, the using stress amplitude is improvedby 10 %-15 % compared with that of spring steel prepared through a traditional technology, and the novel spring steel has higher ductility and toughness; the quenching temperature is controlled to reduce the quenching stress and reduce the deformation, so that a high yield ratio and good comprehensive mechanical properties are obtained; and the cooling mode is controlled, and the two times of shotblasting treatment is adopted, so that the surface of the spring steel is strengthened, the surface quality of the spring steel is improved, the residual compressive stress is generated on the surface, and the the spring steel is improved in fatigue strength and prolonged in service life.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of heat treatment, in particular to a heat treatment process of alloy spring steel. Background technique [0002] Spring steel is widely used in modern industrial equipment, mechanical parts, automobiles, engines, railways and other industries. The spring mainly works under dynamic load, that is, under the condition of shock and vibration, or under the action of alternating stress, and uses elastic deformation to absorb impact energy and act as a buffer. Since the spring is often subjected to vibration and long-term work under the action of phase change stress, mainly due to fatigue damage, the spring steel must have a high elastic limit and a high fatigue limit. In addition, there should be enough toughness and plasticity to prevent sudden brittle fracture under impact force. With the enhancement of my country's industrial capacity, industrial equipment is developing in the direction of large load and hig...
