The diameter of the quenching mandrel deviates from the diameter of the ring by not more than 0.05 mm, and the diameter of the ring after quenching is ensured to meet the final requirements by considering the diameter expansion and contraction law of the ring during the quenching process of the material. When the diameter of the quenching mandrel is greater than 20 mm, a hollow structure is adopted, and the remaining wall thickness is about 3-5 times the width of the raw material, so as to accelerate the cooling speed during quenching.

[0063] S30, quenching; The quenching is performed in a vacuum furnace or a protective atmosphere furnace, and the hardness and brittleness of the quenched sample are checked.

[0064] S40, cutting; The string of wire rings is cut into single rings, and the remaining rings are cut off.

[0065] S50, punching the notch; The two ends of the ring are processed by punching with a punch. One end is cut first, and the other end is processed after the cutting position is determined by referring to the sample plate, so as to ensure that the relative angle of the two ends after cutting meets the requirements.

[0066] S60, deburring; The residual burrs after cutting are removed by using a file, sandpaper, felt wheel and other tools.

[0067] S70, sandblasting; The sandblasting removes rust on the surface of the ring.

[0068] S80, calibrating thickness; The thickness of the ring is adjusted by using an electro-polishing method, so that the thickness of the ring meets the requirements.

[0069] S90, inspection; The sizes such as the diameter, thickness and relative angle of the two ends of the ring are checked.

[0070] The present application solves the problem of scratches on the surface of the ring, and reduces the manufacturing difficulty and improves the manufacturing efficiency.

[0071] The above content only illustrates the technical idea of the present application, and cannot limit the protection scope of the present application. Any modification made according to the technical idea of the present application on the basis of the technical scheme falls within the protection scope of the present application.
