Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of ring rolling, and in particular to a thin-walled ring rolling device capable of online heat supplementation, heat preservation and measurement and a method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Ring rolling is a continuous local plastic processing process. Compared with the integral die forging process, it has significant technical and economic advantages such as greatly reducing equipment tonnage and investment, low vibration and impact, energy saving and material saving, and low production cost. It is an advanced manufacturing technology for various seamless rings such as bearing rings, gear rings, flange rings, train wheels and hoops, gas turbine rings, etc., and is increasingly widely used in many industrial fields such as machinery, automobiles, trains, ships, petrochemicals, aerospace, and atomic energy. Ring rolling technology is currently one of the most effective means to produce high-performance seamless rings, and is widely used in many fields such as aviation, aerospace, energy, and transportation. During the rolling process, the ring material is fully deformed and well filled, achieving near-net forming, so that the streamlines are reasonably distributed along the shape of the part, minimizing the cutting of the streamlines and the exposure of the ends, thereby greatly improving the stress corrosion resistance, service life, and reliability of the forgings.
[0003] With the development of society, the quality requirements for rings are getting higher and higher, and the demand for large-size rings is increasing. Ring parts are mostly used under harsh conditions such as high temperature, high pressure, and corrosion, and the requirements for the organizational performance of rings are very strict. Traditional forming processes can no longer meet the requirements of rapid industrial development. Ring rolling technology is an inevitable choice for the production of ring parts.
[0004] When the ring is rolled on the ring rolling mill, the temperature of the ring will gradually decrease with the rolling time. When the temperature of the ring is lower than the final forging temperature, the ring needs to be taken out of the ring rolling mill and sent to the heating furnace for heating. After the temperature of the ring reaches the initial forging temperature, the ring is taken out and put back on the ring rolling mill for rolling. Due to the large size of the ring, it will consume a lot of manpower and time to achieve the above work, which seriously reduces work efficiency and increases production costs. At the same time, due to the rapid temperature drop of the ring during the rolling process, cracks and other defects will occur in the workpiece, resulting in reduced quality of the ring rolled product.
[0005] On the other hand, the existing rolling equipment cannot directly measure the size of the rolled piece after rolling, so it is impossible to obtain parameters such as the wall thickness of the rolled piece. Manual measurement is often required in the later stage, wasting a lot of manpower and material resources. Especially for special-shaped rolled pieces, measuring parameters such as wall thickness is very troublesome, and manual measurement often cannot accurately measure parameters such as the wall thickness of special-shaped rolled pieces. Summary of the invention

After adding the heat supplement and heat preservation device, this situation can be greatly improved. During the rolling process, the temperature of the workpiece can always be within the good rolling temperature range, which improves the ring rolling quality of the workpiece; at the same time, the addition of a measuring device can more accurately measure the size of the rolled ring, especially the size of the special-shaped rolled piece, which reduces the waste of manpower and material resources and improves work efficiency.

[0022] S1, the motor drives the active roller to make circular motion through the coupling;

The workpiece is placed on the workpiece base through the mandrel, and the core roller connecting bracket is pressed down by the vertical hydraulic cylinder to contact and lock the core roller; under the action of the horizontal hydraulic cylinder, the core roller makes a feeding motion to make the workpiece contact with the active roller;

[0032] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0033] (1) The present invention adds a heat supplement and heat preservation device on the basis of the original ordinary ring rolling mill. During the rolling process of the original ring rolling mill, the temperature of the workpiece drops rapidly, so the workpiece will produce defects such as cracks. After adding the heat supplement and heat preservation device, this situation can be greatly improved.
[0034] (2) The thermometric couple of the present invention is installed on the conical roller part. Since the conical roller moves radially as the ring is formed during the ring rolling process, when the thermometric couple is installed on the conical roller part, the thermometric couple can be in full contact with the workpiece, thereby obtaining more accurate temperature data.
[0035] (3) The heating device of the present invention is mainly composed of two parts, one is the core roller heating part, and the other is the gas pipeline heating part. Among them, the core roller heating part heats the core roller by adding a heating rod inside the core roller; the gas pipeline heating part is to install a gas pipeline on the roller bracket, and a gas nozzle is installed on one side of the gas pipeline, and the workpiece is heated by the nozzle. Since the roller bracket rotates during the ring forming process, the gas pipeline installed on it makes the same movement, which can realize the whole process of heating and heat preservation of the workpiece by the nozzle, and the nozzle is controlled by the solenoid valve, which can heat the workpiece more specifically.
[0036] (4) The present invention can reduce the number of ring rolling fires to improve work efficiency; and because of the presence of a heating and heat preservation device, the temperature of the workpiece can always be within a good rolling temperature range during the rolling process, thereby improving the ring rolling quality of the workpiece. Usually, the deformation resistance of carbon steel at 1100°C is 25Mpa, and the deformation resistance at 900°C is above 80Mpa. The lower the temperature, the faster the deformation resistance increases. Therefore, after adding a heating and heat preservation device, the temperature drop can be delayed, thereby improving the ring rolling quality and success rate.
[0037] (5) The measuring device of the present invention is directly arranged near the workpiece, so that the dimensions of the ring-rolled product can be measured online, which is convenient for the staff to adjust the rolling conditions in time according to the measured dimensions to obtain more accurate ring-rolled products. Especially for special-shaped rolled products, the parameters such as the wall thickness of the special-shaped rolled products can be obtained quickly and accurately, and recorded, which solves the shortcoming of the prior art that the parameters such as the wall thickness of the special-shaped rolled products cannot be measured quickly and accurately.

[0061] The device is provided with four sets of sliding worktables 39, which are respectively a first sliding worktable, a second sliding worktable, a third sliding worktable and a fourth sliding worktable in order from left to right.

[0086] The working principle of the present invention is further explained below:
[0087] The core roller connecting bracket base 22 is placed on the active roller bracket 15, the core roller connecting bracket 21 is connected to the core roller connecting bracket base 22, the bracket vertical movement hydraulic cylinder 2 is placed on the core roller connecting bracket base 22, and pushes the core roller connecting bracket 21 to make a rotational motion, thereby realizing the contact and separation of the core roller connecting bracket 21 and the core roller 16; the bracket horizontal movement hydraulic cylinder 3 is connected to the active roller bracket 15, and pushes the core roller connecting bracket 21 to make a horizontal motion, thereby realizing the feeding motion of the core roller 16; the workpiece 17 is placed on the workpiece base 18, and the core roller heating rod 20 is connected to the workpiece base 18 through the core roller heating rod fixing piece 19, and the main heating part of the core roller heating rod 20 is inside the core roller 16, thereby realizing the heating and heat preservation function of the core roller 16 during the ring rolling process.
[0088] The conical roller part includes a conical roller horizontal motion hydraulic cylinder 9, a conical roller box 23, a temperature measuring thermocouple 24, a roller 25, a lower conical roller 26, and an upper conical roller 27. During the ring rolling process, the horizontal motion hydraulic cylinder 9 moves forward and backward to realize the conical roller box 23. According to the ring rolling forming process, the temperature measuring thermocouple 24 can be in full contact with the workpiece 17, so as to know the outer wall temperature of the ring during the ring rolling process.
[0089] The holding roller part is composed of holding rollers 29 and holding roller brackets 32. Holding rollers 29 are distributed on both sides of active roller brackets 15. Gas pipeline fixing brackets 33 are installed on holding roller brackets 32. Gas pipeline 31 is installed on holding roller brackets 32 through brackets 33. Gas is introduced into one side of gas pipeline 31, and a working gas nozzle 28 is installed on the other side. When the temperature obtained by the temperature measuring thermocouple 24 finds that the temperature of the outer wall of the workpiece 17 is too low, the workpiece 17 can be heated by the working gas nozzle 28. During the ring rolling forming process, the holding roller motion hydraulic cylinder 11 can control the holding roller bracket 32 to perform a rotary motion to achieve full-process contact with the workpiece 17. During the movement of the holding roller bracket 32, the gas pipeline 31 is driven to move, so that the gas nozzle 28 can heat the entire rolling process. During the heat preservation process of the workpiece 17, two infrared thermometers 35 are installed on the concrete wall 8 to measure the temperature of the outer wall and the inner wall of the workpiece 17 respectively. The infrared thermometer on the left is the first thermometer, which is used to measure the temperature of the upper part of the workpiece 17, and the infrared thermometer on the right is the second thermometer, which is used to measure the temperature of the lower part of the workpiece 17. In addition, the infrared thermometer 35 can swing up and down to measure the temperature at different points in the axial direction. According to the temperature measured by the infrared thermometer 35, the workpiece 17 can be heated in a targeted manner by adjusting the gas control valve 34.
[0090] Before the measuring system starts working, the second and third sliding workbenches are located in the middle of the movable crossbeam 38, and the first and fourth sliding workbenches are located at both ends of the movable crossbeam 38; during operation, the second and third sliding workbenches move left and right respectively until they come into contact with the inner wall of the workpiece 17 and stop, and the first and fourth sliding workbenches move toward the middle until they come into contact with the outer wall of the workpiece 17 and stop; the distances between the telescopic rods 42 on the first and second, second and third, third and fourth, and first and fourth sliding workbenches are read respectively, and recorded as the left wall thickness, inner diameter, right wall thickness and outer diameter of the workpiece 17. If the workpiece 17 is a special-shaped ring rolled product 43, the working process is roughly similar to the above operation, and the length of the telescopic rods 42 of the second and third sliding workbenches can be adjusted to the longest, and the telescopic rods 42 can first contact the position with the smallest inner diameter, and the length of the telescopic rods 42 and the height of the movable crossbeam 38 can be adjusted continuously, so that the rod head of the telescopic rod 42 can contact the workpiece 17 at different inner diameters to obtain the inner diameters of different areas, and the values of different inner diameters can be recorded in real time to obtain the morphological data of the special-shaped ring rolled product 43.
