Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of manufacturing technology and technology of new energy vehicle structural parts, and specifically relates to an ultrasonic impact strengthening device and method for improving the fatigue strength of an aluminum alloy wheel hub of a new energy vehicle. Background Art
[0002] In the field of automotive engineering, the wheel hub is an important component that connects the vehicle to the road, and its performance is directly related to the vehicle's handling, safety, and driving quality control. First, the wheel hub supports the weight of the entire vehicle and transfers the weight of the vehicle to the road, bearing various forces during the vehicle's driving process, such as lateral loads, driving force, and braking torque when the vehicle turns; secondly, the wheel hub is the part where the axle is installed, which can buffer the external impact of the vehicle, ensure the vehicle's driving performance, and keep the tire in good contact with the road. As a traditional and economical steel wheel hub, it is known for its high strength and long durability, and can withstand large loads and impacts, but its weight is relatively large, which will affect the handling and driving distance of new energy vehicles. At the same time, the heat dissipation and rust prevention of the steel wheel hub also need regular maintenance, which limits its application scenarios.
[0003] As the most popular wheel hub material on the market, aluminum alloy wheels are known for their lightweight properties, which can reduce the total weight of the car, thereby improving the driving distance and handling of new energy vehicles. The excellent thermal conductivity of aluminum alloy materials also helps the heat dissipation of the wheel hub, and the corrosion resistance is significantly improved compared to steel wheels. Unlike fuel vehicles, new energy vehicles are driven by electric energy. The vehicle accelerates quickly at the start stage and has a short braking distance during driving. The wheel hub, as a load-bearing structural component that bears the total weight of the vehicle body, needs to continuously withstand tensile-compressive impact loads during service. In addition, as a means of transportation, new energy vehicles often need to be used for a long time, so higher fatigue strength technical indicators are required for new energy vehicle wheels.
[0004] At present, the manufacturing processes for improving the fatigue strength of new energy vehicle hubs mainly include surface strengthening and extrusion strengthening. Extrusion strengthening is to extrude the center hole and other areas of the hub through an extrusion rod to introduce a layer of residual compressive stress layer on the surface of the material, thereby improving the fatigue strength and service life of the new energy vehicle hub; but extrusion strengthening will destroy the structural dimensions of the aluminum alloy hub, making the aluminum alloy hub unable to be installed and used. The surface strengthening process mainly includes surface shot peening, surface laser shock strengthening and surface ultrasonic shock strengthening. As a traditional surface strengthening process, shot peening has the advantages of simple operation, strong process applicability and good effect. However, during surface shot peening, the projectile will form a large number of craters of different sizes on the surface of the part, and the surface roughness of the part is large, so surface treatment processes such as anodizing cannot be performed. Surface laser shock strengthening is an advanced surface strengthening technology. It uses high-energy laser pulses to impact the surface of the material, generate residual compressive stress on the surface of the material, and improve the fatigue strength, crack propagation resistance and corrosion resistance of the material. However, aluminum alloy is a metal material with excellent thermal conductivity. When the surface of the material absorbs high-energy pulse laser during laser shock strengthening, it will cause a sharp rise in the temperature of the surface material, exceeding the heat resistance limit of the material, causing the microstructure of the surface material to be destroyed and damaged, affecting the service life of the aluminum alloy wheel. Ultrasonic impact technology is an efficient method to eliminate harmful residual tensile stress on the surface of components or welds and introduce beneficial compressive stress. Ultrasonic impact equipment usually uses high-power energy to drive the impact head to impact the surface of metal objects at a frequency of about 20,000 times per second. The high frequency, high efficiency and high energy under focus cause large compressive plastic deformation of the metal surface. At the same time, ultrasonic impact changes the original stress field and generates beneficial compressive stress. Under high-energy impact, the surface temperature of the metal rises rapidly and cools rapidly, causing the surface metal structure of the action area to change, and the impact part is strengthened. It can be seen that ultrasonic impact strengthening is a surface treatment technology. Through the high-frequency vibration generated by ultrasonic waves, the impact gun generates high-frequency vibration impact on the surface of the workpiece, produces severe plastic deformation on the surface of the part, introduces residual stress, and effectively improves the fatigue strength and stress corrosion resistance of the part. The working principle of ultrasonic impact strengthening is that the power system generates a high-frequency electrical signal, the transducer converts the high-frequency electrical signal into mechanical vibration, the amplitude transformer amplifies the amplitude of the mechanical vibration, and the impact gun converts the vibration energy into impact force to act on the surface of the part. Through severe plastic deformation, a residual compressive stress layer is formed on the surface of the part, which improves the fatigue strength and stress corrosion resistance of the part, thereby improving the material properties of the part. Summary of the invention
[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to improve the fatigue strength, service life and stress corrosion resistance of aluminum alloy wheels of new energy vehicles, and proposes an ultrasonic impact strengthening device and method for improving the fatigue strength of aluminum alloy wheels of new energy vehicles.
