[0025] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0026] The embodiments of the present invention provide a method for improving the interface strength of cold spray additives and a method for extending shaft parts, which can solve the problems in the related art of cracks or even peeling off inside the coating, and thermal damage to parts resulting in coarse structure and reduced performance.
[0027] See also Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, a method for improving the interface strength of cold spray additive provided by an embodiment of the present invention may include the following steps:
[0028] S1. Processing the additive interface of the part to be processed once to increase the area of the additive interface.
[0029] S2. Perform secondary processing on the additive interface to improve the roughness of the additive interface.
[0030] S3. Cold spraying the additive interface after secondary processing.
[0031] In this embodiment, by performing secondary design on the additive interface, the area of the additive interface is increased, and the roughness of the additive interface is improved, which can effectively improve the bearing capacity of the interface and thus improve the interface strength. Cold spraying is performed on the processed additive interface to improve the coating quality and extend the service life of the components.
[0032] See also Figure 2As shown, in some optional embodiments, the processing of the additive interface may include: increasing the area of the additive interface by changing the angle of the additive interface. In this embodiment, the area is increased by changing the angle of the additive interface. For example, if the part to be processed is a flat plate, the additive interface can be processed into an inclined surface, or if the part to be processed is a cylindrical part, the additive interface can be processed into a cone, which is convenient for processing. In other embodiments, the area of the additive interface can be increased by other means. The area of the additive interface can be increased by changing the shape of the additive interface, such as changing a plane to a curved surface or a polygon.
[0033] See also Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, before the additive interface is processed once, it can also include: determining the angle that the additive interface needs to change according to the stress characteristics of the part to be processed. In this embodiment, according to the stress characteristics of the part to be processed, such as better fatigue resistance and bending resistance, the processing angle of the additive interface can be larger, thereby increasing the area of the additive interface while ensuring the strength of the part to be processed.
[0034] See also Figure 3 As shown, in some optional embodiments, the secondary processing of the additive interface may include: processing lines on the additive interface, and the extension direction of the lines is perpendicular to the axis of the part to be processed. In this embodiment, according to the force direction of the processed part, the interface is roughened by turning, scraping, etc. The lines are perpendicular or nearly perpendicular to the force direction, which can avoid interface contamination caused by sandblasting, achieve close bonding between the coating and the substrate, and further enhance the load-bearing capacity of the interface; wherein, if the part to be processed is cylindrical and is mainly subjected to axial tensile load, the extension direction of the lines is perpendicular to the axis of the part to be processed. If the part to be processed is of other shapes, the extension direction of the lines can also be other directions.
[0035] See also Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, before cold spraying the additive interface after secondary processing, it can also include: adjusting the cold spray angle so that the cold spray jet direction is parallel to the extension direction of the texture. In this embodiment, the cold spray angle is parallel to the extension direction of the texture, that is, parallel to the angle bisector of the texture, so that the cold spray jet can directly hit the bottom of the texture to form a hole-free combination, effectively reduce the porosity, and improve the interface strength.
[0036] See also Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, in some embodiments, after the cold spraying of the additive interface after the secondary processing, it can also include: overall processing of the outside of the coating, and the processing direction is parallel to the force direction of the part to be processed. In this embodiment, the surface integrity and dimensional accuracy are controlled by supplementary processing, and the fatigue characteristics of the part are significantly improved while ensuring the function of the part. The processing direction is consistent with the force direction of the part to be processed to avoid early damage caused by stress concentration.
[0037] Specifically, a method for improving the interface strength of cold spray additive provided by an embodiment of the invention includes four steps: interface macro-shape design, interface micro-morphology design and processing, cold spray additive process parameter adjustment and optimization, and supplementary processing to achieve final part size and surface integrity control.
[0038] 1. Macro-shape design of the interface
[0039] According to the stress characteristics of the parts, the interface angle is appropriately changed to increase the interface area.
[0040] 2. Interface micro-morphology design and processing
[0041] According to the force direction of the parts, the interface is roughened by turning, scraping and other methods. The texture is perpendicular or nearly perpendicular to the force direction, and the roughness is controlled to Ra5-12um.
[0042] 3. Optimization and adjustment of cold spray additive process parameters
[0043] Adjust the spraying angle of cold spray additive, make the jet direction parallel to the bisector of the angle of the micro-morphology groove, and carry out cold spray additive to ensure the dense interface and reduce the interface porosity.
[0044] 4. Supplementary processing to achieve final size and surface integrity control of parts
[0045] After the spraying and additive manufacturing is completed, the parts are processed as a whole to ensure the size of the parts and the integrity of the surface. There is no visible overcutting and scratches. The processing lines are as consistent as possible with the force direction to avoid stress concentration caused by the processing lines and early fracture.
[0046] See also Figure 2-Figure 5 As shown, a method for extending shaft parts provided by an embodiment of the present invention may include:
[0047] S1. The end of the part to be processed is processed once and a conical surface is formed to increase the area of the additive interface. Specifically, the shaft parts are subjected to torsion and axial tensile loads. They are pre-treated before spraying, and the end of the shaft to be extended is made into a cone to increase the bonding area between the coating and the substrate.
[0048] S2. Perform secondary processing on the conical surface to improve the roughness of the conical surface. Specifically, considering the processing properties, rough threading can be performed on the conical surface of the substrate to achieve the required roughness of the interface between the substrate and the coating.
[0049] S3. Cold spraying is performed on the conical surface after secondary processing. Specifically, a workpiece is manufactured by completing a spraying operation on a substrate.
[0050] See also Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the secondary processing of the conical surface may include: processing threads on the conical surface, and the extension direction of the threads is perpendicular to the axis of the part to be processed. In this embodiment, shaft parts are subjected to torsion and axial tensile loads, the main stress direction is axial, and torsion is an auxiliary load. The thread processing is perpendicular to the main load direction, which can further improve the interface bearing capacity.
[0051] See also Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, before cold spraying the conical surface after secondary processing, it can also include: adjusting the cold spraying angle so that the jet direction of the cold spraying is parallel to the extension direction of the thread. In this embodiment, the spraying angle is parallel to the extension direction of the thread, and the jet can be directly sprayed to the bottom of the thread groove to ensure a dense interface and reduce interface porosity.
[0052] See also Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the outer part of the coating is processed as a whole with the original outer cylindrical surface of the part to be processed as a reference, and the processing direction is parallel to the force direction of the part to be processed. In this embodiment, the supplementary processing after spraying is based on the original outer cylindrical surface of the long axis to process the cold sprayed additive body, and the surface roughness value is not higher than Ra1.6, ensuring that the part size meets the design requirements.
[0053] The principles of a cold spraying additive interface strength improvement method and a shaft parts extension method provided in an embodiment of the present invention are as follows:
[0054] According to the load mode of the parts, the interface between the additive body and the substrate is designed to increase the interface area, which can effectively enhance the interface load-bearing capacity; non-sandblasting methods are used to process the interface micro-morphology to achieve roughening of the substrate interface, avoid interface contamination caused by sandblasting, achieve close bonding between the coating and the substrate, and make the processing lines perpendicular to the load direction, which can further improve the interface bearing capacity; the macro-spraying angle parameters are associated with the micro-roughness morphology, and the spraying angle is parallel to the bisector of the micro-groove angle of the interface, optimizing the sandblasting coarsening random morphology shielding interference and inclusion contamination, so that the cold spray jet can directly hit the bottom of the micro-groove, achieving higher strength and smaller porosity to form a hole-free bond; supplementary processing controls surface integrity and dimensional accuracy to ensure part function while significantly improving part fatigue characteristics.
