Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of hot working of stainless steel materials, and particularly relates to a heating method for a valve sheet of a refrigeration compressor. BACKGROUND

[0002] Martensitic stainless steel refers to stainless steel whose performance is adjusted by adjusting the content of carbon, chromium and other components in the steel and a heat treatment process. After annealing treatment, the main organization thereof is ferrite + carbide; after high-temperature austenitizing, the main organization thereof is martensite after air cooling. Carbon dissolved in high-temperature austenite phase during the period is mainly distributed in the material in the form of (Fe, Cr) carbide, effectively improving the hardness of the material, but too high carbon content will reduce the toughness and plasticity of the material.

[0003] Especially, the martensitic stainless steel involved in the present application is mainly used for manufacturing a valve sheet of a refrigeration compressor. After hot rolling, cold rolling, heat treatment, stamping, quenching and tempering and other series of processes, the valve sheet of the compressor is manufactured. The compressor is a driven fluid mechanical equipment for improving low-pressure gas in a refrigeration system into high-pressure gas, and is the heart of the refrigeration system. The valve sheet is as important as the valve of the human heart for the compressor, and is a key component of the compressor system. For some high-frequency variable frequency refrigeration compressors, the frequency may even reach 150 HZ / S. The compressor valve sheet as the valve not only needs to bear alternating stress and bending stress generated by high-frequency action, but also needs to bear very high suction and discharge pressure to accelerate the circulation of refrigerant. The thinner the valve sheet, the smaller the valve resistance, the lower the power consumption of the compressor, and the more power saving of the refrigeration system. The thickness of the valve sheet is only about 0.1-0.3 mm, and the weight is only about 2-5 g, but it is the most impacted part in the compressor. Therefore, the compressor valve sheet steel must have ultra-high toughness and high-cycle fatigue strength and high impact fatigue strength, and the working environment also has lubricating oil, refrigerant and water vapor, and the long-term working temperature is 180-400 DEG C. The working environment and service conditions require the valve sheet steel to also have high corrosion resistance.

[0004] The martensitic stainless steel involved in the application contains about 0.4% of carbon, is medium-carbon martensitic, chromium is a strong carbide forming element, and the molten steel is easy to form composition segregation between dendrites during the solidification process. If the heating is too fast at the low temperature stage, the organizational stress caused by the segregation in the casting blank will be increased, and the risk of cracks or breakage of the casting blank after heating will occur. Due to the segregation of large-size primary carbides, if the high-temperature diffusion and dissolution are not good during the heating process, the final primary carbides will be inherited to the finished product, causing the poor strength and toughness of the material, and seriously affecting the high-cycle fatigue service life and processing performance of the product. In addition, the compressor has high requirements for air tightness, and accordingly, the size precision and flatness of the valve plate are strictly required. The uneven heating temperature of the casting blank will cause a large thickness difference of the plate and poor flatness, which will be inherited to the downstream processing product, affect the yield of the finished product, and even cause the failure of the compressor and reduce the service life of the refrigeration system. SUMMARY

[0005] The purpose of the application is to provide a heating method for martensitic stainless steel of a valve plate of a refrigeration compressor, so as to solve the problem of defects in the finished product prepared by the traditional martensitic stainless steel heating process.

[0006] The technical scheme of the application is a heating method for martensitic stainless steel of a valve plate of a refrigeration compressor, comprising the following steps: Step one: heating the martensitic stainless steel continuous casting blank in the preheating furnace and then discharging it;

[0007] The temperature system of the preheating furnace is as follows: heat recovery section, first heating section, second heating section and third heating section, and the total heating time is greater than 210 minutes; the heat recovery section and the first heating section are not heated, the continuous casting blank stays for more than or equal to 100 minutes, and the temperature of the continuous casting blank discharged from the first heating section is less than or equal to 400℃; the heating time of the second heating section is greater than 50 minutes, the temperature of the continuous casting blank discharged from the second heating section is less than or equal to 550℃, and the heating rate is less than or equal to 3℃ / min; the heating time of the third heating section is greater than or equal to 60 minutes, the heating rate is less than or equal to 4℃ / min, the continuous casting blank is taken out of the preheating furnace after the heating in the third heating section is completed, and the discharge temperature of the preheating furnace is 680-740℃;

[0008] Step two: placing the martensitic stainless steel continuous casting blank in the heating furnace after the preheating furnace is heated;

[0009] The heating furnace type is: heat recovery section, preheating section, heating section and soaking section, the furnace temperature system is: the heat recovery section is not heated, the preheating section, the upper part of the heating section, the lower part of the heating section, the left upper part of the soaking section, the left lower part of the soaking section, the right upper part of the soaking section, the right lower part of the soaking section are seven positions for seven-section furnace temperature control, wherein the preheating section hearth temperature is 1050-1220 DEG C, the heating time is greater than or equal to 50 minutes; the heating section is controlled separately up and down, the lower part of the heating section temperature is 1270-1290 DEG C, the upper part of the heating section temperature is 1260-1285 DEG C, the heating time of the heating section is greater than or equal to 70 minutes; the temperature of the left upper part of the soaking section, the left lower part of the soaking section, the right upper part of the soaking section and the right lower part of the soaking section is 1268-1280 DEG C, and the heating time is greater than or equal to 80 minutes.

[0010] Step three: the martensitic stainless steel continuous casting billet is rolled into a hot-rolled black roll after heating in the heating furnace, and a finished product is prepared.

[0011] Further, the chemical element composition and mass percentage of the martensitic stainless steel continuous casting billet are as follows: carbon: 0.36-0.43%, silicon: ≤1.0%, manganese: ≤1.0%, phosphorus: ≤0.02, sulfur: ≤0.005%, chromium: 12.00-15.00%, molybdenum: ≤1.5%, vanadium: ≤0.30%, nitrogen: ≤0.2%, and the rest is iron and residual elements.

[0012] Further, in step one, the martensitic stainless steel continuous casting billet is a steel billet directly cast from molten steel by a large-scale arc continuous casting machine, the length of the martensitic stainless steel continuous casting billet is 8000-12000 mm, and the thickness is 160-220 mm.

[0013] Further, in step two, the heat recovery section has no burner and is not heated; the preheating section has 12 burners on both sides, of which 8 are interval control burners; before the martensitic stainless steel continuous casting billet enters the preheating section, the interval control valve is automatically cut.

[0014] Further, in step two, the length and thickness direction temperature difference uniformity of the martensitic stainless steel continuous casting billet is less than or equal to 15 DEG C.

[0015] The beneficial effects of the present application are as follows:

[0016] 1. By closing the preheating furnace preheating section burners, adjusting the preheating furnace three-section heating mode to two-section heating mode, and reasonably setting the heating temperature and heating time of each section, the reasonable control of the low-temperature section heating rate is realized, and problems such as deterioration of composition segregation and increase of organizational stress caused by too fast heating at low temperature stage, and casting billet heating cracks are avoided.

[0017] 2. Through the reasonable distribution of the heating load of the preheating furnace and the heating furnace, the high-temperature diffusion and poor solution during the heating process are prevented, the temperature of the casting blank in the heating section and the soaking section of the heating furnace is ensured to meet the maximum high-temperature solution of primary carbides, the number of large-size primary carbides in rolling and finished products is reduced, the uniform distribution of carbides in finished products is ensured, and the strength and toughness of the products are improved.

[0018] 3. The flame length of the burner in the preheating section of the heating furnace is designed to be the longest, only second to the heating section, the longest flame length and the rigidity of the flame modulation burner must be ensured, the pressure and flow of the gas and air participating in the combustion of the burner must be maximized, and the function of the interval valve is to ensure that each burner operates in the best flame length and rigidity state by adjusting the heating amount of the burner. Through the function of the interval control valve of the preheating section burner in the heating furnace, the problem of short flame and flame floating caused by temperature fluctuation or low load operation of the burner is effectively avoided, and the uniformity of the heating temperature is ensured.

[0019] 4. Through the reasonable setting of the furnace temperature and heating time of each heating section, the automatic control of the interval valve in the preheating section and the separate control of the upper and lower parts of the heating section, the temperature difference in the length direction and the thickness direction of the casting blank is minimized, the surface temperature of the continuous casting blank reaches the target discharge temperature after the preheating section and the heating section, and the uniformity of the thickness direction and the length direction of the casting blank is ≤15℃ through sufficient heat preservation and soaking in the soaking section.

[0020] 5. The uneven heating temperature of the casting blank will cause problems such as poor flatness of the plate and strip during rolling, large differences between the same plates, and uneven distribution of carbides in the local organization of the finished plate and strip. A reasonable heating process ensures the uniformity of the temperature and organization of the plate and strip during the rolling process of the continuous casting blank, realizes the continuity from the continuous casting blank of martensitic stainless steel for refrigeration compressor valve plate to preheating, heating, rough rolling, rolling mill rolling, and coiling, and ensures that the product organization is uniform, the carbides are fine and uniformly distributed, the thickness difference between the same plates meets the requirements of downstream precision rolling processing, and the material has high strength and toughness.

[0021] In this process, molybdenum and vanadium are introduced for alloying. The addition of molybdenum not only makes the material have better corrosion resistance, but also makes the molybdenum carbide difficult to dissolve during heating, so that the steel can maintain fine grains and improve the toughness of the material; the addition of vanadium can inhibit the segregation of carbon and improve the uniformity of the organization.

[0022] The finished product produced by this process has high hardness and toughness, good corrosion resistance to lubricants and cooling media, and good resistance to water vapor corrosion, with a high number of high-cycle fatigue resistance ≥10 7 , high dimensional accuracy and flatness, which is helpful for producing thin compressor valve plates and meets the requirements of long-term stable operation of the compressor with low energy consumption.

[0023] This process effectively improves the degree of segregation, eliminates and reduces large-sized carbides in the finished product, and ensures the dimensional accuracy and flatness of hot-rolled strip. From the perspective of industrial mass production, the process achieves stable mass production of products through a reasonable continuous casting billet heating method. Attached Figure Description

[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, the heat recovery section has no burners. The preheating section has 12 preheating burners 1 on each side, 8 of which are intermittently controlled burners 2. The heating section has heating burners 3 on both sides and an axial burner 5 at the top. The soaking section has soaking burners 4 on both sides. The preheating burners 1 are designed with a flame length second only to the heating burners 3. The intermittent control valve function of the intermittently controlled burners 2 avoids problems such as short flames and flame drift caused by low-load operation of the preheating burners 1, ensuring uniform heating temperature. Through the reasonable distribution of the heating load between the preheating furnace and the heating furnace, the preheating burners 1, heating burners 3, axial burners 5, and soaking burners 4 in the heating furnace operate under optimal heating load conditions, achieving optimal flame length and flame rigidity.
