For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the embodiments of the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0049] Please refer to Figure 1 The mother liquor circulating pump zirconium alloy shaft processing method provided by the embodiments of the present application comprises steps 101-112:

[0050] Step 101: hot forging of zirconium alloy bar stock to obtain a blank, remove the black skin of the blank and perform ultrasonic testing. Among them, the zirconium alloy bar stock is selected by secondary ingot. In actual application, by performing ultrasonic testing on the blank, internal defects of the blank can be found to ensure the processing strength of the zirconium alloy at the source.

[0051] Step 102: rough turning of the ultrasonic testing qualified blank to obtain a workpiece. Specifically, the ultrasonic testing qualified blank is supported by a center support, each outer circle, step allowance, root R, and the blank is center drilled.

[0052] Among them, when rough turning the blank, the rake angle γ0 is between 8°-13°, the relief angle α0 is between 16°-17°, the main offset angle K r is between 42°-48°, the blade inclination angle λ is between 2°-6°, and the tool tip arc radius γ ε =0.5mm-1mm. In actual application, according to the cutting characteristics of zirconium alloy, in order to reduce the cutting deformation and cutting temperature of zirconium alloy and ensure sufficient heat dissipation, the rake angle γ0 is between 8°-13° when rough turning. Since the elastic modulus of zirconium alloy is small and the cold hardening phenomenon is serious, the relief angle α0 is between 16°-17° when rough turning. In order to avoid scratching the machined surface during cutting, the blade inclination angle λ is between 2°-6° when rough turning. In order to prevent tool tip cracking and wear, the tool tip arc radius γ ε =0.5mm-1mm when rough turning.

[0053] Specifically, since the zirconium alloy has the characteristics of high strength and hardness, large plastic deformation resistance, serious cold hardening phenomenon, small thermal conductivity and high chemical activity, the material of the tool is required to have the characteristics of high hardness, high strength, good wear resistance and heat resistance, so the rough turning tool material YG8 is selected. In addition, since the ignition point of zirconium alloy is relatively low, dry cutting of zirconium alloy is strictly prohibited during cutting process, so cutting with extreme pressure emulsion with large thermal conductivity, large specific heat and large vaporization heat is adopted during cutting process, and the cutting fluid is fully, quickly and large-flow poured during cutting process to ensure the best high-pressure cooling effect.

[0054] Step 103: After rough turning, the workpiece is annealed in a vacuum furnace. The vacuum furnace is a specific space in which the vacuum system is used to discharge part of the material in the furnace cavity, so that the pressure in the furnace cavity is less than one standard atmosphere, so that the space in the furnace cavity realizes the vacuum state. Further, the workpiece is annealed in the vacuum furnace to avoid the reaction of zirconium with oxygen in the air.

[0055] Specifically, step 103 includes steps 1031-1033:

[0056] Step 1031: After rough turning, the workpiece is vertically hung in a vacuum furnace with a vacuum degree of ≤0.04 Pa. In actual application, the workpiece is vertically hung in the vacuum furnace to avoid deformation of the workpiece during heat treatment.

[0057] Further, after rough turning, the workpiece is vertically hung in a vacuum furnace with a vacuum degree of ≤0.04 Pa, which specifically includes:

[0058] After rough turning, the workpiece is vertically hung in a vacuum furnace with a vacuum degree of ≤0.04 Pa for annealing treatment for 2 hours. The pit type vacuum furnace has the advantages of simple equipment device, no environmental pollution and good process repeatability.

[0059] Step 1032: Annealing treatment of the workpiece at a temperature of 700-750℃ for 2 hours.

[0060] Step 1033: Slowly cool to below 100℃, and take out the furnace for air cooling. In practice, by annealing the workpiece, the workpiece can meet the requirements of tensile strength ≥485MPa and yield strength ≥380MPa.

[0061] Step 104: After the annealing treatment is completed, the workpiece is subjected to ultrasonic detection. Specifically, after the annealing treatment is completed, the workpiece is subjected to ultrasonic detection, which can find the internal defects of the workpiece, so that the possible defects of the workpiece can be investigated.

[0062] Step 105: the semi-finish machining ultrasonic testing qualified workpiece. Specifically, the ultrasonic testing qualified workpiece is clamped at one end, the other end is topped, the middle is supported by a center support, each outer circle is semi-finished according to the required size, the single side allowance of the step is left, each relief groove is machined and the fillet is ensured.

[0063] Wherein, when the workpiece is semi-finished, the rake angle γ0 is between 5°-7°, the relief angle α0 is between 16°-17°, the main offset angle Kr is between 27°-33°, the blade inclination angle λ is 0°, and the tool nose radius γ ε =0.5mm-1mm. In actual application, according to the cutting characteristics of zirconium alloy, in order to reduce the cutting deformation and cutting temperature of zirconium alloy and ensure sufficient heat dissipation, the rake angle γ0 is between 5°-7° when semi-finished. Because the elastic modulus of zirconium alloy is small and the cold hardening phenomenon is serious, the relief angle α0 is between 16°-17° when semi-finished. In order to avoid scratching the machined surface during cutting, the blade inclination angle λ is 0° when semi-finished. In order to prevent tool tip cracking and wear, the tool nose radius γ ε =0.5mm-1mm when semi-finished.

[0064] Specifically, because zirconium alloy has the characteristics of high strength and hardness, large plastic deformation resistance, serious cold hardening phenomenon, small thermal conductivity and high chemical activity, the material of the tool is required to have high hardness, high strength, good wear resistance and heat resistance, etc., so the semi-finish tool material YG8 is selected.

[0065] Further, according to the cutting characteristics of zirconium alloy, the cutting speed, feed rate and cutting depth of zirconium alloy must be low during cutting, so the cutting parameters of zirconium alloy shaft are selected as shown in Table 1:

[0066] Table 1-Selection of cutting parameters

[0067]

[0068] Step 106: rough grinding each outer circle of the semi-finished workpiece with allowance, and repairing the center hole. Specifically, the semi-finished workpiece is installed with double top, each outer circle is rough ground with allowance, and the center hole is repaired during rough grinding.

[0069] Step 107: after rough grinding, the workpiece is machined with keyway thread at both ends. Specifically, the workpiece is clamped at one end, the other end is topped, the middle is supported by a center support, and the keyway thread at both ends is machined according to the required size.

[0070] Step 108: Milling the keyway on the workpiece, and performing the penetrant testing on the workpiece after the milling of the keyway. In practical application, after the milling of the keyway on the workpiece, the workpiece is installed with the double top center for milling the keyway, and the penetrant testing is performed on the workpiece after the milling of the keyway. Specifically, the penetrant testing is performed on the workpiece after the milling of the keyway, which can prevent the micro-cracks on the surface of the workpiece during the machining process. In addition, the milling of the keyway is arranged between the rough grinding and the finish grinding of the workpiece, which can better meet the coaxiality and the outer circle run-out requirements of the reference.

[0071] Step 109: The workpiece that passes the penetrant testing is subjected to the stress relief annealing treatment in the vacuum furnace.

[0072] Specifically, step 109 includes steps 1091-1093.

[0073] Step 1091: The workpiece that passes the penetrant testing is vertically hung in the vacuum furnace with a vacuum degree of ≤0.04 Pa. In practical application, the workpiece is vertically hung in the vacuum furnace to avoid the deformation of the workpiece during the heat treatment.

[0074] Step 1092: The workpiece is subjected to the stress relief annealing treatment at a temperature of 540-590℃ for 1-3 hours.

[0075] Step 1093: The workpiece is cooled to below 100℃ in the furnace and is taken out for air cooling. In practical application, the stress relief annealing treatment of the workpiece can prevent the zirconium alloy shaft from exceeding the tolerance due to the stress of the milling of the keyway, and can stabilize the size of the zirconium alloy shaft.

[0076] Step 110: The workpiece is finish ground after the stress relief annealing, and the center hole is lapped.

[0077] Specifically, when the workpiece is finish ground, the green silicon carbide with a particle size of 60 mesh, a hardness grade of J, an organization number of 7, and a ceramic binder is selected. Specifically, the green silicon carbide has the advantages of high hardness, strong cutting ability, stable chemical properties, and good heat conduction performance, and is therefore suitable for grinding the workpiece with high hardness.

[0078] Specifically, step 110 includes steps 1101-1102.

[0079] Step 1101: The workpiece is finish ground on the outer circle of each end and the end face of each shaft shoulder after the stress relief annealing.

[0080] Step 1102: The workpiece is turned over multiple times during the finish grinding of the workpiece to timely lap the center hole, and the center hole is lubricated with butter. In practical application, the center hole of the workpiece is timely lapped to ensure the grinding quality.

[0081] Step 1103: finishing the workpiece at a rotating speed of 35 mm / min and a feeding amount of 0.01 mm. Specifically, the surface roughness of the zirconium alloy shaft can be guaranteed to meet the requirement of Ra 1.6 um, and the outer circle run-out of the bearing part of the final shaft can be guaranteed to be 0.01-0.015.

[0082] Step 111: threading on the workpiece after the fine grinding;

[0083] Step 112: pre-oxidizing the workpiece after the threading. In actual application, the surface hardness of the zirconium alloy shaft and the corrosion resistance to acetic acid medium can be increased through the pre-oxidizing.

[0084] Specifically, the step 112 includes steps 1121-1123.

[0085] Step 1121: vertically hanging the workpiece in the resistance furnace after the threading. The resistance furnace is an industrial furnace which uses electric current to make the electric heating element or heating medium in the furnace generate heat, so as to heat the workpiece or material. Placing the zirconium alloy shaft in the resistance furnace for heating can make the zirconium alloy shaft well contact with the air, so as to realize the oxidation treatment of the zirconium alloy shaft. Through the heating of the resistance furnace and the oxidation of the surface of the zirconium alloy shaft by the oxygen element in the air, the oxidation of the zirconium alloy shaft can be realized without additional addition of oxygen during heating, which reduces the production cost and is suitable for industrial mass production. Moreover, since the oxygen content in the air is low, the zirconium alloy shaft can be heated for a longer time during the oxidation process, so that the texture of the oxidized zirconium coating is tighter and the quality is better. Due to the longer oxidation heating time, a thicker oxidized zirconium coating can also be obtained.

[0086] Step 1122: stepwise temperature rising, and when the temperature rises to each whole hundred temperature, the temperature at the whole hundred temperature is kept for 30 min, until the temperature rises to 400℃ and is kept for 3 hours. Specifically, through the stepwise temperature rising and the keeping at the whole hundred temperature, the temperature of the whole workpiece is uniformly raised, so that the zirconium alloy shaft produces a small and uniform deformation, which can control the final deformation amount of the zirconium alloy shaft.

[0087] Specifically, the stepwise temperature rising includes: rising the temperature from the furnace temperature at a temperature rising rate of 50℃ / h-150℃ / h.

[0088] Step 1123: cooling to 100℃ with the furnace and air cooling after taking out of the furnace. Through the repeated process of heating and keeping, the zirconium alloy shaft is heated more uniformly, and the deformation of the zirconium alloy shaft during heating is avoided.

[0089] This invention provides a method for machining a zirconium alloy shaft for a mother liquor circulation pump. The method includes: hot forging a zirconium alloy bar to obtain a blank; removing the black skin from the blank and performing ultrasonic testing; rough machining the ultrasonically tested blank to obtain a workpiece; annealing the workpiece in a vacuum furnace after rough machining; performing ultrasonic testing on the workpiece after annealing; semi-finish machining the ultrasonically tested workpiece; rough grinding the outer diameters of the semi-finish machined workpiece with a allowance, and finishing the center hole; machining threads with keyways at both ends on the workpiece after rough grinding; milling keyways on the workpiece, and performing penetrant testing on the workpiece after keyway milling; performing stress-relief annealing on the workpiece in a vacuum furnace after penetrant testing; finish grinding the workpiece after stress-relief annealing, and finishing the center hole; machining threads on the finish-ground workpiece; and pre-oxidizing the workpiece after thread machining. This invention addresses the properties and cutting characteristics of zirconium alloys. Through the aforementioned processing methods, it ensures the dimensional and positional tolerances and surface roughness of the zirconium alloy shaft. Three-stage defect detection eliminates potential defects in the zirconium alloy shaft. Annealing and stress-relief annealing ensure the machining strength of the zirconium alloy shaft. Pre-oxidation treatment guarantees the corrosion resistance requirements of the zirconium alloy shaft, thereby ensuring the machining accuracy of the zirconium alloy shaft and enabling mass production. This application, while ensuring that the material's mechanical properties meet the usage requirements, produces defect-free zirconium alloy shafts with stable dimensions, high dimensional and positional tolerances, good surface roughness, high surface hardness, and wear and corrosion resistance.

[0090] To more clearly illustrate the present invention, the following is an embodiment of a specific method for machining a zirconium alloy shaft for a mother liquor circulation pump:

[0091] The zirconium alloy bar is hot-forged into an asphalt blank. The chemical composition and mechanical properties of the blank should meet the requirements of ASTM B493. The black skin of the blank is removed and ultrasonic testing is performed according to NB / T 47013.3. The blank is qualified as Grade I.

[0092] The ultrasonically tested blank is supported by a center frame; the material is YG8, the front angle γ0 is 10°, the rear angle α0 is 16°, and the principal deviation angle K is... r The blade angle is 45°, the cutting edge inclination angle λ is 4°, and the tip radius γ is 45°. ε Rough turn each outer diameter with a 0.6mm tool, leaving a 4mm allowance on each side of the step, and R2-R3 at the root; drill a center hole in the blank.

When milling the keyway, pay attention to leaving a grinding allowance on the outer circle. After milling the keyway, perform a penetrant test on the workpiece according to NB / T 47013.5. It is qualified as Level I.

[0099] The workpiece that passes the penetrant test is vertically suspended in a vacuum furnace with a vacuum degree ≤0.04Pa; the workpiece is subjected to stress-relief annealing at a temperature of 565℃ and held for 1 hour; it is then cooled in the furnace to below 100℃ and air-cooled after being removed from the furnace.

[0100] After stress-relief annealing, a grinding wheel made of green silicon carbide is used to finely grind the outer diameters at both ends of the workpiece and the end faces of the two shaft shoulders. The green silicon carbide has a particle size of 60 mesh, a hardness grade of J, a structure number of 7, and a ceramic binder. During the fine grinding process, the workpiece is turned around multiple times to grind the center hole in a timely manner, and grease is applied to lubricate the center hole. The workpiece is then finished with a rotation speed of 35 mm / min and a feed rate of 0.01 mm.
