[0039] Hereinafter, the embodiments of the present application will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0040] The embodiment of the present application inputs energy in the way of ultrasonic vibration generated by the ultrasonic flattening device, can eliminate most of the residual stress, break the crystal grains, improve the microstructure, and achieve the purpose of improving the performance of the slab; through the multi-pass roll bending of the three-roll plate rolling machine and the multiple cycles of ultrasonic flattening, the residual stress of the composite slab is significantly reduced, and the performance of the composite plate is improved. Figure 1 As shown in the figure, it is a composite plate performance optimization process method of roll bending-ultrasonic flattening process cycle of the embodiment of the present application.

[0041] The embodiment of the present application provides a composite plate performance optimization process method of roll bending-ultrasonic flattening process cycle, as shown in the figure. Figure 2 As shown in the figure, it is a process flow chart designed according to the actual production process of the embodiment of the present application; in order to prove the applicability of the present application, it is applied to an example, which specifically includes the following steps:

[0042] S1: According to the related parameters of the composite slab to be optimized, prepare and select an alloy composite slab with a certain thickness and component ratio.

[0043] In this embodiment, a stainless steel aluminum alloy rolling composite plate initial slab with a thickness of 6mm and a layer thickness ratio of 2:1 is prepared and selected, which is cut into a plate with a size of 600mm*300mm, and a plurality of samples with a composite size standard are obtained; as shown in the figure, Figure 3 As shown in the figure, it is a size diagram of the composite slab, which is used to show the shape and size of the standard slab.

[0044] S2: Put the alloy composite slab into the heating furnace for heating.

[0045] Specifically, the composite plate is placed into the heating furnace using a clamp, and the temperature of the heating furnace is adjusted to 150-200℃.

[0046] S3: Repeatedly roll bending the heated composite slab using the plate rolling machine to roll into a preset angle arc shape;

[0047] The slab is placed into the gap between the upper and lower rollers, which is mainly used to roll the slab into a circular arc shape with an angle of 150°.

[0048] The compressive stress provided by the upper roller of the plate rolling machine exceeds the yield limit of the material, and the composite slab will be plastically deformed, then the lower roller is rotated to drive the composite plate to rotate, and the composite plate is bent into a slab with a certain arc, the outer layer of the slab is stretched, the inner layer is compressed, and the neutral layer changes to a smaller extent, and a deformation texture is formed, which reshapes the microstructure of the composite plate; according to the recrystallization data obtained under the roll bending condition, the desired grain size can be predicted and obtained by establishing the following dynamic recrystallization model:

[0049] The dynamic recrystallization critical shear strain model during the plate rolling process is shown below:

[0050]

[0051] Where: ε p Indicates peak strain; ε c denoted as critical shear strain; Z represents the temperature-to-strain-rate compensation factor; k1 represents the shear strain linear fitting coefficient; m1 represents the shear strain linear fitting exponent. Represents strain rate (s) -1 Q represents the activation energy for thermal deformation (KJ / mol); R represents the gas constant, specifically 8.314 J·(mol·K). -1 T represents the deformation temperature (K);

[0052] The dynamic recrystallization volume fraction model during the plate rolling process is shown below:

[0053]

[0054] In the formula: X drx Indicates the volume fraction of dynamic recrystallization; k d The volume fraction linear fitting coefficients are represented by m. d The linear fit index represents the volume fraction.

[0055] The dynamic recrystallization grain size model during the plate rolling process is shown below:

[0056]

[0057] In the formula: k2 represents the linear fitting coefficient of grain size; m2 represents the linear fitting exponent of grain size;

[0058] The average grain size of the microstructure after dynamic recrystallization during the rolling process of a plate rolling machine is called the average grain size of dynamic recrystallization, and its calculation formula is as follows:

[0059] D avg =D drx X drx +D0(1-X drx );

[0060] In the formula: D avg D0 represents the average grain size during dynamic recrystallization; D0 represents the initial grain size.

[0061] The composite slab heated by multiple roll bending processes using a plate rolling machine in step S3 specifically involves:

[0062] S31. Use a clamp to place the first end of the heated composite slab flat on the surface of the two lower rollers, so that the first end of the composite slab extends a certain distance beyond the lower roller on the side of the composite slab's forward direction.

[0063] S32. Adjust the position of the composite slab blank so that the side of the composite slab blank is perpendicular to the generatrix of the lower roller; adjust the position of the upper roller to contact the upper surface of the composite slab blank, and press down a certain distance with the initial pressing amount to make the composite slab blank bend and deform. Rotate the lower roller to use the friction between the roller and the composite slab to make the board move and cause the overall bending deformation.

[0064] S33. Gradually increase the pressure of the upper roller to make the lower roller rotate in the opposite direction, and repeatedly roll the heated composite slab into an arc shape with a set angle.

[0065] During the rolling process, the compressive stress provided by the upper roller of the rolling mill exceeds the yield limit of the material, causing the composite slab to undergo plastic deformation. Then, the lower roller of the rolling mill rotates, causing the composite plate to rotate and bend into an arc-shaped slab with a certain curvature. At this time, the outer grains and structure of the slab are stretched, while the inner grains and structure are compressed.

[0066] S4: Invert the heated composite slab onto the mold and perform ultrasonic leveling.

[0067] The slab was inverted and flipped onto the mold for ultrasonic leveling. The device was set to a power of 3KW, a frequency of 20KHz, and an amplitude of 40μm. Figure 4 The diagram shown is a schematic of the ultrasonic leveling device according to an embodiment of the present invention. By inputting energy through physical ultrasonic vibration, it can eliminate most of the residual stress, break up grains, and improve the microstructure, thereby improving the performance of the slab.

[0068] Ultrasonic vibration can apply periodic dynamic stress to metal components. The dynamic stress is superimposed on the residual stress inside the metal component. When the superposition amplitude is greater than the yield limit of the metal component, a small plastic deformation will occur, thereby releasing the residual stress.

[0069] The formula for calculating the reduction in residual stress based on the results before and after ultrasonic vibration is as follows:

[0070]

[0071] Where: ε x ε represents the reduction in transverse residual stress. y ν represents the reduction in shear stress and residual stress; E represents the elastic modulus of the composite slab; ν represents the Poisson's ratio of the composite slab. The calibration factor representing axial stress; The calibration coefficient represents the shear stress; ε1 represents the first principal stress; ε3 represents the third principal stress.

[0072] Due to the ultrasonic vibration, the residual stress generated by the roll bending process is released more completely, reducing warping, twisting deformation and cracking of the composite board under subsequent inappropriate heat treatment, welding and cutting conditions.

[0073] Ultrasonic vibration can not only eliminate residual stress in roll-bent plates, but also increase the activity of internal grains and structures after absorbing vibration energy, increase thermal vibration speed, raise material temperature, and cause dislocation-related thermal softening, thereby reducing the dynamic deformation resistance and flow stress of the material and enhancing the fluidity of the metal during plastic deformation of the composite plate. On the other hand, during plastic deformation, high-frequency ultrasonic vibration can break up the grains to a certain extent, significantly improving the internal structure of the composite plate, greatly improving mechanical properties and ductility, and enhancing machining, plastic deformation, and overall mechanical properties.

[0074] S5: Flip the composite slab and repeat S2-S4;

[0075] After flipping, the composite slab is reheated and then rolled into an arc shape with the same angle using a plate rolling machine. Finally, it is ultrasonically leveled. Reverse ultrasonic leveling improves the comprehensive mechanical properties of the composite slab, releases the residual stress generated by the multiple roll bending process, and can restore the problem of reduced plastic deformation capacity caused by the roll bending process, laying the foundation for cyclic action.

[0076] S6: Repeat S2-S5 twice more to obtain a composite slab with significantly improved performance through cyclic action.

[0077] The cyclic process is as follows: one cycle consists of heating the composite plate, rolling, ultrasonic leveling, reverse rolling, and reverse ultrasonic leveling. Two cycles are performed in total, resulting in a composite slab with significantly improved performance. The tensile strength, yield strength, and elongation are all improved; the thickness anisotropy coefficient is improved; the strain hardening index is increased; the grain size is refined; the tensile properties are significantly improved; and the average cupping value is increased. The performance indicators of the composite slab are significantly improved.

[0078] A second aspect of the invention provides a system for optimizing the performance of composite panels based on a roll bending-ultrasonic leveling process cycle, comprising a heating assembly, a roll bending assembly, and an ultrasonic leveling assembly. The heating assembly includes a heating furnace for heating. The roll bending assembly is used to perform multiple roll bending operations.

[0079] The output of ultrasonic generator 1 is connected to the input of transducer 2. The output of transducer 2 is connected to the input of amplitude transformer 3. The input of amplitude transformer 3 is connected to lower anvil 6, which is fixed on the worktable. Upper anvil 5 is mounted on the upper slide of the hydraulic press. The ultrasonic leveling assembly is used to flatten and ultrasonically level the sheet material. Upper anvil 5, mounted on the upper slide of the hydraulic press, is responsible for opening and closing the composite plate 7. Lower anvil 6 is fixed on the worktable and connected to amplitude transformer 3, transducer 2, and ultrasonic generator 1 via a matching double-ended stud 4.

[0080] The various indicators of the final formed composite sheet were tested. The microstructure and geometry of the composite sheet were observed and analyzed using an optical microscope. The comprehensive mechanical properties, thickness anisotropy coefficient r, and deformation strengthening index n of the samples were tested on a universal testing machine. The deep drawing performance of the composite sheet was tested using a cupping test. On the one hand, the comprehensive mechanical properties of the composite sheet after reverse ultrasonic leveling have been improved. The residual stress generated by the multi-pass roll bending process has been basically completely released, and the problem of reduced plastic deformation caused by the roll bending process has been restored to a certain extent. This creates conditions for re-deformation of the subsequent roll bending process and also creates the preconditions for cyclic action. On the other hand, the cycle of heating the composite sheet - roll bending process - ultrasonic leveling - reverse roll bending process - reverse ultrasonic leveling is one cycle. The first cycle plus the After two more cycles, a total of three cycles were performed, resulting in a composite slab with significantly improved performance. The tensile strength increased by 4.79%, the yield strength by 5.43%, the elongation by 4.82%, the thickness anisotropy coefficient was significantly improved from 0.729 to 0.887, the strain hardening index increased from 0.029 to 0.042, the grain size was significantly refined and reduced by 60%, the tensile properties were significantly improved, and the cupping value increased by an average of 21.11%, reaching the performance indicators for the end of the cycle. Table 1 shows the comparison of material properties of the composite slab after 0, 1, 2, and 3 cycles. The data in the table shows that the tensile strength, yield strength, elongation, and other performance indices of the composite slab obtained using this process are all significantly improved.

[0082] Cycles 0 1 2 3 Tensile strength (MPa) 277.4 284.2 287.3 290.7 Yield strength (MPa) 211.7 216.9 220.7 223.2 Elongation (%) 24.9 25.6 25.9 26.1 Thick anisotropy coefficient (r) 0.729 0.747 0.821 0.887 Strain hardening exponent (n) 0.029 0.034 0.038 0.042 Grain size (μm) 120 75 55 48 Average cupping value ① (mm) 10.1 10.7 11.4 11.9 Average cupping value ② (mm) 8.2 8.8 9.6 10.2

[0084] As can be seen from the table, after three cycles, all properties have been greatly improved. This also shows that the composite plate performance optimization process of the roller bending-ultrasonic leveling cycle in this case proves that it has a very good application effect.

[0085] In the remaining embodiments, different numbers of cycles can be selected according to the needs of different materials, and plates with beneficial properties can be obtained in all cases.
