Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of composite material technology, specifically to an integrated casting and rolling processing device and method for composite metal plates. Background Technology

[0002] To address the issue of chipping on the edge of high-carbon, high-chromium stainless steel knives during chopping due to their high hardness, a multi-layered composite stainless steel knife material has been developed. This material sandwiches a layer of hard, high-carbon stainless steel in the middle as the cutting edge, with a layer of high-toughness stainless steel added to both sides for reinforcement and support. This effectively protects the high-hardness edge and improves its toughness.

[0003] Currently, the main methods for preparing composite steel plates are explosive welding and rolling. Explosive welding has significant drawbacks, including operational hazards and severe pollution, and the composite surface is wavy, affecting some performance. Rolling, on the other hand, results in a distinct interface between the alloy layers, with a very obvious difference in microstructure between the two metal layers, leading to suboptimal bonding at the alloy interface. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings in the prior art by providing an integrated casting and rolling processing device and method for composite metal plates.

[0005] A composite metal plate casting and rolling integrated processing device includes a kerf widening mechanism and a first roll mechanism;

[0006] The kerf widening mechanism includes a widening mechanism upper cover, which is fixedly connected to the widening mechanism frame by mechanism bolts. The upper two sides of the widening mechanism upper cover are fixed between the widening mechanism operating end frame and the widening mechanism motor end frame by mechanism upper cover fixing bolts. The widening mechanism operating end frame and the widening mechanism motor end frame are fixedly connected by frame connecting bolts and fixed to the ground by grounding bolts. Multiple mechanism side wheels are rotatably connected to both sides of the widening mechanism frame by side wheel pins. The widening mechanism frame has a wedge-shaped structure, and the mechanism lower wheel is rotatably connected to the lower end of the widening mechanism frame by mechanism lower wheel pins.

[0007] Both sides of the central boss of the two sets of mechanism lower rollers are rotatably connected to the support of the lower roller of the widening mechanism via mechanism lower roller bearings. The mechanism lower roller bearings are tapered roller bearings. The outer side of the support of the lower roller of the widening mechanism is provided with the first and second shims of the mechanism lower rollers to fix the mechanism lower roller bearings. The mechanism lower roller bearing nuts are tightened and fixed on the mechanism lower rollers and fit against the mechanism lower roller second shims. The mechanism lower roller passes through the motor end frame of the widening mechanism and is fixedly connected to the external motor. The central boss of the mechanism lower rollers mates with the mechanism lower wheel.

[0008] The lower roller support mechanism is fixed between the operating end frame of the widening mechanism and the motor end frame of the widening mechanism by bolts, and the lower roller support of the widening mechanism is fixed on the lower roller support mechanism.

[0009] The operating end frame and the motor end frame of the widening mechanism have four mechanism side roller fixing slots. The two sides of the central boss of the mechanism side roller are equipped with mechanism side roller bearings. The mechanism side roller bearings are tapered roller bearings. The outer ring of the mechanism side roller bearings is fixedly connected to the mechanism side roller support. The mechanism side roller bearing gasket is located below the mechanism side roller support at the lower end of the mechanism side roller. The mechanism side roller bearing gasket is fixed to the mechanism side roller by tightening the mechanism side roller nut. The mechanism side roller bearing above the mechanism side roller is fixed inside the mechanism side roller support by tightening the mechanism side roller nut. The mechanism side roller support is fixed inside the mechanism side roller fixing slot. The upper end of the mechanism side roller is fixedly connected to the external motor.

[0010] The first roll mechanism includes a first roll frame. Two mirror-shaped first roll frames are fixed together by frame connecting bolts and grounded to the ground by grounding bolts. The two sides of the first lower roll boss are rotatably connected to the lower roll bearing support through roll bearings. The right end of the lower roll bearing support is provided with a first roll gasket and a second roll gasket that can fix the roll bearing. The roll nut is fixed to the outside of the first lower roll and abuts against the outside of the second roll gasket. A lower roll gasket is fixed below the lower roll bearing support. The lower roll gasket has a through hole and is fixed to the first roll frame by gasket connecting bolts. An inter-roll gasket is provided above the lower roll bearing support. An upper roll gasket with a circular groove is provided above the upper roll bearing support. An upper roll adjusting screw is provided above the upper roll gasket. The upper roll adjusting screw is tightened on the first roll frame, and the lower end of the upper roll adjusting screw contacts the upper roll gasket to fix the upper roll bearing support.

[0011] The first upper roller is a concave wheel, and the first lower roller is a convex wheel. The first upper roller and the first lower roller work together to bend the steel pipe into an arc.

[0012] A method for integrated casting and rolling of composite metal plates includes the following steps:

[0013] S1. In a horizontal centrifugal casting machine, molten steel with good toughness, molten steel with high hardness, and molten steel with good toughness are poured in sequence and centrifugal casting is carried out to cast a three-layer seamless steel pipe.

[0014] S2. The cast steel pipe is transported to the gantry-type plasma cutting machine via conveyor rollers, and the steel pipe is cut axially from beginning to end;

[0015] S3. Transport the cut steel pipe to the slit widening mechanism to widen the slit;

[0016] S4. The steel pipe is passed through the first rolling mill, the second rolling mill, and the third rolling mill in sequence, and the cut is gradually widened to flatten the steel pipe into a three-layer composite steel plate.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0018] Centrifugal casting of seamless three-layer steel pipes can produce composite steel pipes with relatively good alloy bonding surfaces. This process is currently mature, has minimal environmental pollution, and is relatively safe and convenient to operate. The seamless steel pipes are then hot-rolled into three-layer composite steel plates through a cutting and hot-rolling process. Hot rolling refines the steel plate's grain size, improving its performance. The three-layer composite steel plates produced using this process exhibit tight bonding between different steel materials, with no obvious delamination, and small grain size, resulting in good material properties. Knives made from these composite steel plates possess both high hardness and toughness, meeting daily usage requirements, improving the sharpness and toughness of the tools, and extending their service life.

The operating end frame 16 and the motor end frame 17 of the widening mechanism are fixedly connected by frame connecting bolts 18 and fixed to the ground by grounding bolts 19. Multiple mechanism side wheels 11 are rotatably connected to both sides of the widening mechanism frame 9 by side wheel pins 12. The widening mechanism frame 9 has a wedge-shaped structure. The lower mechanism wheel 13 is rotatably connected to the lower end of the widening mechanism frame 9 by mechanism lower wheel pins.

[0030] Both sides of the central boss of the two sets of mechanism lower rollers 14 are rotatably connected to the lower roller support 22 of the widening mechanism via mechanism lower roller bearings 23.
