[0002] The automobile transmission shaft is a vital component in the automobile transmission system, which is mainly responsible for transmitting the power generated by the engine to the driving wheels of the vehicle. The quality of the steel used in the automobile transmission shaft is related to the safety of power transmission during the driving process of the vehicle. Therefore, the requirements for the steel used in the automobile transmission shaft in terms of high temperature resistance, wear resistance, mechanical properties, fatigue life, steel purity, etc. are very high to ensure the safety of the vehicle driving process.
[0003] The ecological electric furnace (also known as the eco-friendly electric furnace) is a high-efficiency electric arc furnace that uses advanced energy recovery and environmental protection technologies. It has a high degree of airtightness and the characteristics of preventing air from penetrating into the scrap steel preheating chamber and the furnace body. The ecological electric furnace includes a melting furnace and a preheating chamber. It uses high-temperature exhaust gas to preheat the scrap steel and loads the scrap steel into the vertical preheating chamber connected to the furnace shell. By using the CO gas contained in the exhaust gas, the ecological electric furnace only needs to add a small amount of fuel to achieve molten steel smelting, which can avoid the production of harmful chemicals. In addition, the ecological electric furnace can also realize different process production of full scrap steel or 0-60% molten iron. The raw materials are not limited by material type and size. It can not only select economical light scrap steel to organize full scrap steel smelting, but also increase the proportion of molten iron to develop high-cleanliness molten steel.
