After the temperature of the upper die core and the lower die core is raised to a suitable temperature, the robot moves the high-temperature billet between the upper die core and the lower die core, and allows the upper die core and the lower die core to forge the billet.

[0014] Furthermore, a relief valve is installed in the lifting hydraulic rod.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, when the upper die seat drives the upper furnace body, the upper furnace body forges the lower furnace body. When the pressure of the hydraulic press body is greater than the lifting hydraulic rod, the overflow valve in the lifting hydraulic rod opens, and the lower furnace body moves downward with the upper furnace body until the forging of the billet is completed, so that the upper furnace body and the lower furnace body can maintain a state of resistance during the descending forging process.

[0018] Furthermore, the insulation mechanism includes two insulation pads respectively arranged on the upper mold base and the lower mold base, and the two insulation pads are respectively located between the upper mold base and the upper mold core, and between the lower mold base and the lower mold core. The insulation pads are fixedly connected to the corresponding upper mold core and upper mold base, and lower mold core and lower mold base. A sealing ring is fixed on the upper mold base, and the sealing ring is located between the upper mold base and the upper furnace body.

After the temperature of the upper mold core and the lower mold core rises to a suitable temperature, the lower furnace body is moved away from the upper furnace body. The robot moves the high-temperature blank between the upper mold core and the lower mold core, and then the lower furnace body is raised and abutted against the upper furnace body. Then the telescopic end on the hydraulic press body drives the upper pad of the press, and the upper pad of the press drives the upper die seat. The die base drives the upper die core to move toward the lower die core, allowing the upper die core and the lower die core to forge the blank. After the blank is forged, the upper plate of the press drives the upper die base, the upper die core and the upper furnace body to rise, and the lower furnace body continues to descend. Then the hydraulic ejector rod ejects the forging from the lower die core, and then the robot takes out the forged forging to complete the near-isothermal forging process, which greatly improves the forming difficulties of difficult-to-deform high-temperature alloys, titanium alloys and powder high-temperature alloys, and improves the problems of surface cracking of forgings, large deformation dead zone, shear band, thick cold die structure, filling and narrow structure control window.

The plate near the mold core is made of K3 material, and the plate near the mold base is made of GH4169 material. At the same time, the sealing ring seals the gap between the upper furnace body and the upper mold base, and blocks the heat generated by the upper furnace body. Then, the insulation sleeve one and the insulation sleeve two insulate the surfaces of the upper furnace body and the lower furnace body. When the lower furnace body is in contact with the upper furnace body, the insulation sleeve three on the insulation sleeve one is arranged on the insulation sleeve two, and the insulation sleeve three is used to further insulate the lower furnace body, and at the same time, the heat dissipation from the gap between the upper furnace body and the lower furnace body is reduced, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing the heat loss between the upper furnace body and the lower furnace body, and reducing the impact of heat transfer on normal operation.

[0026] 3. In the present application, the sealing barrel is made of a flexible fireproof and heat-insulating material. When the lower furnace body moves up and down, the lower furnace body drives the sealing barrel. The sealing barrel deforms with the movement of the lower furnace body. The sealing barrel seals the gap between the moving lower furnace body and the lower mold base, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing the heat outflow from the gap between the lower furnace body and the lower mold base, and further improving the uniformity of the temperature between the upper furnace body and the lower furnace body.

N3 has good high temperature strength, good oxidation resistance and thermal fatigue performance, and can meet the requirements of 1100°C isothermal forging die use.

[0034] Before forging, first use the core heating mechanism 6 to heat the upper die core 4 and the lower die core 5, and at the same time, the insulation mechanism 7 insulates the upper die core 4 and the lower die core 5, so that the temperature of the upper die core 4 and the lower die core 5 is increased to meet the forging temperature and is kept warm.

After the blank is heated to the forging process temperature, the robot is moved on the robot track 1 to take out the heated blank, and then the blank is sent to the upper die core 4 and the lower die core 5 of the hydraulic press body 3, and then the telescopic end on the hydraulic press body 3 drives the upper pad 8 of the press The die core 4 approaches the lower die core 5, allowing the upper die core 4 and the lower die core 5 to forge the blank, and then the blank is placed between the upper die core 4 and the lower die core 5 for forging. After forging, the upper die core 4 and the lower die core 5 are separated, and then the billet is ejected by the hydraulic ejector rod 12, and then the billet is removed by a robot. The hydraulic ejector rod 12 can withstand a high temperature environment of up to 1100°C and has a certain strength. The hydraulic ejector rod 12 is made of N3 high-temperature alloy, so that when the upper die core 4 and the lower die core 5 forge the blank, the temperature is approximately the same as the blank, thereby greatly improving the forming difficulties of difficult-to-deform high-temperature alloys, titanium alloys and powder high-temperature alloys, and improving the problems of surface cracking of forgings, large deformation dead zone, shear band, thick cold die structure, filling and narrow structure control window.

[0035] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The core heating mechanism 6 includes an upper furnace body 63 arranged on the upper mold base 10, and a lower furnace body 64 is arranged on the lower mold base 11. Heating resistor belts 65 are fixed in the upper furnace body 63 and the lower furnace body 64. A hydraulic lifting assembly 66 is arranged between the lower furnace body 64 and the hydraulic press body 3. The upper pad 8 of the press and the upper mold base 10, and the lower pad 9 of the press and the lower mold core 5 are connected and fixed by T-bolts with sufficient strength. The upper mold base 10 and the upper mold core 4, and the lower mold base 11 and the lower mold core 5 are fixed and connected by bolts.

[0036] Moreover, the heating resistance belt 65 is a high-quality Al thermal resistance wire, and a 95 porcelain corundum tube frame is arranged between the heating resistance belt 65 and the upper furnace body 63 and the lower furnace body 64. The 95 porcelain corundum tube frame is fixedly connected to the corresponding upper furnace body 63 and the lower furnace body 64, and the heating resistance belt 65 is wound on the 95 porcelain corundum tube frame.

[0037] The basic requirements for the upper furnace body 63 and the lower furnace body 64 are as follows: Serial number Parameter requirements Parameter Value 1 Maximum mold operating temperature 1100℃ 2 Furnace body shape <φ2800mm 3 Furnace effective heating area ~φ1600mm×1500mm 4 Number of heating zones Upper 2 zones, lower 6 zones (8 zones in total) 5 Temperature control accuracy ±0.2℃ 6 Effective area furnace temperature uniformity ±20℃ 7 Rated total power 380KW~420KW 8 power supply 380V / 50HZ three-phase The upper furnace body 63 and the lower furnace body 64 are electrically controlled and designed according to HB5425-2012.

The electrical system has the advantages of precise control, complete functions, strong anti-electromagnetic interference ability, stable and reliable performance, easy control and maintenance, etc.

[0038] The upper die seat 10 and the lower die seat 11 are made of 5CrNiMo steel, which has good mechanical properties and cost performance below 450°C. Before the blank is placed between the upper die core 4 and the lower die core 5, the lower furnace body 64 is driven to rise by the lifting assembly 66, so that the upper furnace body 63 and the lower furnace body 64 are in contact with each other, and the upper furnace body 63 and the lower furnace body 64 cover the upper die core 4 and the lower die core 5, and then the heating resistance belt 65 is started. The heating resistance belt 65 is fixed on the inner wall of the furnace chamber with a high-quality Al resistance wire + a porcelain corundum tube frame, so that the upper furnace body 63 and the lower furnace body 6 4 is heated. After the temperatures of the upper mold core 4 and the lower mold core 5 are raised to a suitable temperature, the lower furnace body 64 is driven by the lifting assembly 66 to move the lower furnace body 64 in a direction away from the upper furnace body 63 so that the lower furnace body 64 exposes the lower mold core 5. Then the robot moves the hot blank between the upper mold core 4 and the lower mold core 5. Then the lifting assembly 66 is used to drive the lower furnace body 64 to rise and contact the upper furnace body 63. Then the telescopic end on the hydraulic press body 3 drives the upper pad 8 of the press. The plate 8 drives the upper die seat 10, and the upper die seat 10 drives the upper die core 4 to move toward the lower die core 5, so that the upper die core 4 and the lower die core 5 forge the blank. When the upper die seat 10 descends, the upper die seat 10 drives the upper furnace body 63, so that the upper furnace body 63 forges the lower furnace body 64, and the lower furnace body 64 moves with the upper furnace body 63 under the support of the lifting assembly 66. After the blank is forged, the upper pad 8 of the press drives the upper die seat 10, the upper die core 4 and the upper furnace body 63 to rise, and the lower furnace body 64 continues to descend under the drive of the lifting assembly 66, and then the machine The forged blank is taken out, and an upper furnace body 63 and a lower furnace body 64 are mounted on the upper die core 4 and the lower die core 5, so that the heating resistor belt 65 in the upper furnace body 63 and the lower furnace body 64 heats the upper die core 4 and the lower die core 5, so that the upper die core 4 and the lower die core 5 can maintain a high temperature state when forging the blank, thereby greatly improving the forming difficulty of difficult-to-deform high-temperature alloys, titanium alloys and powder high-temperature alloys, and improving the problems of surface cracking of forgings, large deformation dead zone, shear band, thick cold die structure, filling and narrow structure control window.

[0039] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4The lifting assembly 66 includes a lifting ring 661 fixed on the end of the lower furnace body 64 away from the upper furnace body 63, and lifting blocks 662 are fixed on both sides of the lifting ring 661. A lifting hydraulic rod 663 is arranged between the hydraulic press body 3 and the lifting block 662, and the telescopic end of the lifting hydraulic rod 663 is fixedly connected to the lifting block 662. The telescopic end of the lifting hydraulic rod 663 drives the lifting block 662, and the lifting block 662 drives the lifting ring 661. When the lifting ring 661 moves, it drives the supported lower furnace body 64, so that the lower furnace body 64 moves up and down within the range of the lower mold core 5. By using the lifting hydraulic rod 663 to drive the lower furnace body 64 to move up and down, the lower furnace body 64 can be brought into contact with the upper furnace body 63, which is convenient for heating the upper mold core 4 and the lower mold core 5, and at the same time, it is convenient for the lower furnace body 64 to be separated from the upper furnace body 63, so as to facilitate the entry and removal of the blank.

[0040] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 , an overflow valve is installed in the lifting hydraulic rod 663. When the telescopic end of the hydraulic press body 3 drives the upper pad 8 of the press, the upper pad 8 of the press drives the upper die seat 10, and the upper die seat 10 drives the upper furnace body 63, the upper furnace body 63 forges the lower furnace body 64, and the lower furnace body 64 forges the lifting ring 661. The lifting ring 661 forges the lifting hydraulic rod 663 by the lifting block 662. When the pressure of the hydraulic press body 3 is greater than the lifting hydraulic rod 663, the overflow valve in the lifting hydraulic rod 663 opens, and the lower furnace body 64 moves downward with the upper furnace body 63 until the forging of the billet is completed. After forging is completed, the lower furnace body 64 continues to move downward to the lowest position, and at the same time the hydraulic press body 3 drives the upper furnace body 63 to rise, and then the telescopic end of the hydraulic ejector rod 12 extends from the lower die core 4, the hydraulic ejector rod 12 ejects the forging, and then the robot takes out the forging, and when the upper furnace body 63 forges the lower furnace body 64, the lifting hydraulic rod 663 is allowed to descend with the upper furnace body 63 under the action of the overflow valve, so that the upper furnace body 63 and the lower furnace body 64 can be kept in a state of conflict during the descending forging process.

[0041] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The upper furnace body 63 and the lower furnace body 64 are made of 1400 mullite insulation bricks, and the upper furnace body 63 and the lower furnace body 64 are both provided with a shell, which is a Q235 steel shell. The upper furnace body 63 and the lower furnace body 64 are produced using 1400 mullite insulation bricks, ceramic fibers are added during production, and then a steel shell made of Q235 steel plate is provided on the produced upper furnace body 63 and the lower furnace body 64. By using high temperature resistant materials to produce the upper furnace body 63 and the lower furnace body 64, and providing a shell on the upper furnace body 63 and the lower furnace body 64, the upper furnace body 63 and the lower furnace body 64 can have sufficient rigidity and thermal strength, and can withstand a high temperature environment of about 1200°C for a long time.

[0042] Reference Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The insulation mechanism 7 includes two insulation pads 71 ​​respectively arranged on the upper mold base 10 and the lower mold base 11, and the two insulation pads 71 ​​are respectively located between the upper mold base 10 and the upper mold core 4, and between the lower mold base 11 and the lower mold core 5. The insulation pads 71 ​​and the corresponding upper mold core 4 and upper mold base 10, and the lower mold core 5 and the lower mold base 11 are fixedly connected. A sealing ring 72 is fixed on the upper mold base 10, and the sealing ring 72 is located between the upper mold base 10 and the upper furnace body 63. The sealing ring 72 is fixedly connected to the upper furnace body 63, an insulation sleeve 1 73 is fixed on the upper furnace body 63, an insulation sleeve 2 74 is fixed on the lower furnace body 64, and an insulation sleeve 3 77 is fixed on the insulation sleeve 1 73, and the insulation sleeve 3 77 corresponds to the lower furnace body 64 and the insulation sleeve 2 74.

[0043] When the upper mold core 4 is fixed to the upper mold base 10 by bolts, the heat insulation pad 71 is used to pad between the upper mold core 4 and the upper mold base 10, and when the lower mold core 5 is fixed to the lower mold base 11 by bolts, the heat insulation pad 71 is used to pad between the upper mold core 4 and the lower mold base 11, and the heat insulation pad 71 is used to block the heat transfer between the upper mold core 4 and the lower mold core 5. The plate near the mold core is made of K3 material, and the plate near the mold base is made of GH4169 material. At the same time, the sealing ring 72 seals the gap between the upper furnace body 63 and the upper mold base 10, and at the same time blocks the heat generated by the upper furnace body 63, and then the insulation sleeve 1 73 and the insulation sleeve 2 74 are used to seal the gap between the upper furnace body 63 and the upper mold base 10. The surfaces of the upper furnace body 63 and the lower furnace body 64 are insulated. When the lower furnace body 64 is in contact with the upper furnace body 63, the insulation sleeve three 77 on the insulation sleeve one 73 is mounted on the insulation sleeve two 74. The insulation sleeve three 77 is used to further insulate the lower furnace body 64, and at the same time, the heat dissipation from the gap between the upper furnace body 63 and the lower furnace body 64 is reduced. By using the insulation sleeve one 73, the insulation sleeve two 74 and the insulation sleeve three 77 to insulate the upper furnace body 63 and the lower furnace body 64, and using the insulation pad 71 to block the transfer of heat, the heat loss of the upper furnace body 63 and the lower furnace body 64 can be reduced, and the influence of heat transfer on normal operation can be reduced.

[0044] Reference Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5The insulation sleeve three 77 is rotatably connected with the furnace door 75, the insulation sleeve one 73, the insulation sleeve two 74, the insulation sleeve three 77 and the furnace door 75 are all ceramic fiber boards, and the insulation sleeve one 73, the insulation sleeve two 74, the insulation sleeve three 77 and the furnace door 75 are all fixed with an outer shell, which is a Q235 steel plate. The insulation sleeve 1 73, the insulation sleeve 2 74 and the insulation sleeve 3 77 are all made of ceramic fiberboard and Q235 steel. The furnace door 75 installed on the insulation sleeve 3 77 is made of the same material. When the upper furnace body 63 is away from the lower furnace body 64, the furnace door 75 on the insulation sleeve 3 77 is opened, and the blank is sent from the furnace door 75 to between the upper mold core 4 and the lower mold core 5. The insulation sleeve 1 73, the insulation sleeve 2 74 and the insulation sleeve 3 77 are made of enamel fiberboard and Q235 steel, and the furnace door 75 is opened on the insulation sleeve 3 77, thereby reducing the heat loss of the upper furnace body 63 and the lower furnace body 64, and facilitating the feeding of the blank.

[0045] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 6 A sealing barrel 76 is provided between one end of the lower furnace body 64 away from the upper furnace body 63 and the lower die base 11. One end of the sealing barrel 76 is fixedly connected to the lower furnace body 64, and the other end of the sealing barrel 76 is fixedly connected to the lower die base 11. The sealing barrel 76 is made of a flexible fireproof and heat-insulating material. When the lower furnace body 64 moves up and down, the lower furnace body 64 drives the sealing barrel 76. The sealing barrel 76 deforms as the lower furnace body 64 moves. The sealing barrel 76 blocks the gap between the moving lower furnace body 64 and the lower die base 11. By using the sealing barrel 76 to block the gap between the lower furnace body 64 and the lower die base 11, the heat outflow from the gap between the lower furnace body 64 and the lower die base 11 can be reduced, and the uniformity of the temperature in the upper furnace body 63 and the lower furnace body 64 can be further improved.

[0046] Working principle: During forging, the lower furnace body 64 is driven to rise by the lifting assembly 66, so that the upper furnace body 63 and the lower furnace body 64 are in contact with each other, and the upper furnace body 63 and the lower furnace body 64 cover the upper die core 4 and the lower die core 5, and then the heating resistor belt 65 is operated to heat the upper die core 4 and the lower die core 5 in the upper furnace body 63 and the lower furnace body 64. After the upper die core 4 and the lower die core 5 are heated, the blank is sent to the heating furnace group 2 on both sides of the robot track 1, and the heating furnace group 2 is used to heat multiple blanks, and the lower furnace body 64 is driven by the lifting assembly 66 to move the lower furnace body 64 away from the upper furnace body 63, so that the lower furnace body 64 exposes the lower die core 5, and then the furnace door 75 on the insulation cover 77 is opened, and then the robot takes the high-temperature blank out of the heating furnace group 2, and then moves it between the upper die core 4 and the lower die core 5, and then uses the lifting assembly 66 The lower furnace body 64 is driven to rise and contact the upper furnace body 63, and then the telescopic end on the hydraulic press body 3 drives the upper plate 8 of the press, and the upper plate 8 of the press drives the upper die seat 10, and the upper die seat 10 drives the upper die core 4 to move toward the lower die core 5, so that the upper die core 4 and the lower die core 5 forge the blank, and at the same time, the insulation sleeve 1 73, the insulation sleeve 2, and the insulation sleeve 3 77 are used to insulate the upper furnace body 63 and the lower furnace body 64, and then the insulation sleeve 1 The heat pad 71 blocks the heat of the upper die core 4 and the lower die core 5. After the forging of the billet is completed, the upper pad 8 of the press drives the upper die base 10, the upper die core 4 and the upper furnace body 63 to rise, and the lower furnace body 64 continues to descend driven by the lifting assembly 66, and then the furnace door 75 is opened, and then the telescopic end of the hydraulic ejector rod 12 rises, and the hydraulic ejector rod 12 ejects the forged forging from the lower die core 4, and then the robot takes out the forged forging.
