Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of seamless metal composite pipe forming, and particularly relates to a high-speed rolling composite equipment for seamless metal composite pipes. BACKGROUND

[0002] Seamless metal composite pipes are structural and functional materials with rigidity, strength, corrosion resistance, wear resistance and other comprehensive properties. The base body and the cladding layer are tightly combined through special forming techniques. Taking the carbon steel / stainless steel composite pipe with the largest demand in China as an example, the pipe not only has high strength and good wear resistance, but also has good corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance, and can be widely used in aerospace, oil exploration, chemical industry, military industry, nuclear power and other fields.

[0003] Rolling composite technology has many performance advantages such as high efficiency, low cost and good bonding, and has become an ideal method for preparing seamless metal composite pipes. However, due to the characteristics of closed cross section, the forming efficiency is low, the bonding strength is weak, and the spatial deformation is difficult. Patent 202011450318.1 proposes a three-roll cross-rolling forming method for seamless metal composite pipes with corrugated bonding surfaces. The forming corrugations on the three rollers are distributed at different distances. The forming corrugations on the three rollers are in turn in contact with the outer wall of the composite pipe blank, thereby obtaining a spatial spiral composite interface. However, the three-roll cross-rolling composite process is a spatial deformation. The contact positions of the three rollers and the composite pipe blank on the rolling axis are staggered, which is a non-symmetrical support, and is prone to deformation instability and corrugation disorder. Patent 202310822876.3 proposes a high-efficiency sizing adjustment cross-rolling equipment and method for seamless metal corrugated composite pipes. Different corrugated conical rollers can be provided with protruding corrugations in the finishing section, which can form a spatial spiral corrugation on the outer surface of the composite pipe blank, and is used for preparing seamless metal corrugated composite pipes. However, this method cannot obtain a spatial spiral composite interface.

[0004] However, the three-roll cross-rolling composite method belongs to large plastic deformation, which will produce intense plastic deformation heat, thereby causing the temperature of the composite pipe blank to rise. For stainless steel / carbon steel composite pipes, the temperature rise will lead to the reduction of the deformation resistance of the component metals, thereby causing the outer pipe to tear and other phenomena; and for titanium / steel composite pipes, the temperature rise will produce a large amount of intermetallic compounds, reducing the interface bonding strength. In addition, when there are corrugations on the surface of the roller, stress concentration will be formed during the intense spatial plastic deformation process, thereby producing local high temperature, further exacerbating tearing, rolling jam and other phenomena, and will cause the wear of the corrugations on the surface of the roller to be extremely serious, the service life to be significantly reduced, and the cost to be greatly increased. However, the uniformity of the traditional external water cooling method is not ideal, which not only cannot directly act on the deformation zone to play a cooling role, but also will produce obvious non-uniform thermal shock, which will also lead to the reduction of the service life of the roller and cause the performance of the product to be uneven. Although reducing the rolling speed is expected to improve the temperature rise problem, but this will lead to low friction, and the situation of being unable to bite in, which will seriously affect the production efficiency.

[0005] Therefore, how to efficiently realize the controllable spatial composite interface shape of seamless metal composite pipes, solve the problems of tearing, rolling jam, intermetallic compound formation and other problems caused by plastic deformation temperature rise, and improve the rolling speed has become a problem to be solved.

[0060] In another aspect, the application also provides a seamless metal composite pipe high-speed rolling composite method of a seamless metal composite pipe high-speed rolling composite device, which comprises the following steps:

[0061] S1, online gradient heating: preparing a preformed composite blank, penetrating a water-cooled mandrel that has been started to cool into the preformed composite blank through a mandrel conveying system, sending the preformed composite blank into an online gradient heating device by a mandrel trolley to perform gradient temperature control heating on the surface layer of the preformed composite blank, when the preformed composite blank completes heating and leaves the online gradient heating device, the outer pipe material, the inner pipe material and the surface to be compounded are heated to the target gradient temperature, under the cooling action of the water-cooled mandrel, a temperature gradient ΔT is formed between the temperature of the outer pipe material and the temperature of the inner pipe material, and a preformed composite blank with a temperature gradient ΔT is obtained.

[0062] S2, high-speed wave flattening rolling: setting the target pass size of the high-speed rolling composite device, starting the high-speed rolling composite device, injecting circulating cooling water into the gradient internal cooling wave roller system, and rolling the preformed composite blank with the temperature gradient ΔT to realize gradient cooling to both sides of the wave section, so that the temperature of the gradient internal cooling wave roller system is uniformly distributed, the preformed composite blank sequentially passes through the biting-in section, the wave section, the flattening section and the expanding section, and as the diameter of the preformed composite blank gradually decreases, the wall thickness gradually thins, the metallurgical bonding of the composite interface is realized, and a rough rolling seamless metal composite pipe is obtained, which is sent out by the conveying track.

[0063] S3, finishing the finished product into the warehouse: after the rough rolling seamless metal composite pipe passes through the sizing and finishing process, the diameter is reduced, the wall thickness is thinned, the metallurgical bonding of the composite interface is strengthened, the target finished product size is reached, the final rolling seamless metal composite pipe is obtained, the head and tail are removed for size cutting, and after heat treatment, the target comprehensive performance of the component metal and the composite interface is reached, the finished seamless metal composite pipe is obtained, and is packaged into the warehouse.

[0064] The outer edge of the convex corrugation of the wave section is lower than, flush with or higher than the outer surface of the flattening section. Specific embodiments:

[0066] This invention provides a high-speed rolling composite equipment for seamless metal composite tubes, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes a transmission system 1, a frame 2, a pressing system 3, a gradient internal cooling corrugated roller system 4, an online gradient heating device 5, and a mandrel conveying system 6.

[0067] A schematic diagram of the gradient internal cooling corrugated roller system assembly is shown below. Figure 2 As shown, combined with Figure 3 The schematic cross-sectional view of the gradient internally cooled corrugated roll system shown is shown. The gradient internally cooled corrugated roll system 4 includes a corrugated roll sleeve 401, a roll core 402, a cooling core rod 403, and a rotary joint 404. The corrugated roll sleeve 401 is fitted around the outer ring of the roll core 402, and the cooling core rod 403 is installed on the inner ring of the roll core 402. During the rolling process, the corrugated roll sleeve 401, the roll core 402, and the cooling core rod 403 rotate together. The rotary joint 404 is fixedly installed at the end away from the roll core 402, and its interior is connected to the outer cooling core tube 4031 and the inner cooling core tube 4032, respectively, for supplying and returning water to the gradient internally cooled corrugated roll system.

[0068] like Figure 4 As shown, the corrugated roll sleeve 401 directly contacts the pre-made composite billet during the rolling process. It includes a bite section 4011, a corrugated section 4012, a flattening section 4013, and an expansion section 4014 arranged sequentially along the rolling axis. A raised corrugation 40121 is provided on the inlet side of the corrugated section 4012. The outer edge of the raised corrugation 40121 of the corrugated section 4012 can be lower than, flush with, or higher than the outer surface of the flattening section 4013. By adjusting the wave height of the raised corrugation 40121 of the corrugated section 4012, a micro-corrugated interface or a macro-corrugated interface can be obtained at the spatial composite interface of the seamless metal composite tube, so as to achieve precise control of the morphology of the spatial composite interface of the seamless metal composite tube.

[0069] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the roller core 402 includes a first water inlet hole 4021, an annular water cooling groove 4022, a water conveying groove 4023, and a first water return hole 4024. Multiple sets of annular water cooling grooves 4022 are provided axially on the surface of the roller core 402. The first water inlet hole 4021 is located at the corresponding position of the corrugated section 4012 of the corrugated roller sleeve 401, and the first water inlet holes 4021 are evenly distributed around the axial centerline of the roller core 402 on the central annular water cooling groove 4022. The first water inlet holes 4021 are located on both sides of the first water inlet hole 4021. Multiple sets of first return water through holes 4024 are provided along the axial direction. The first return water through holes 4024 are evenly distributed on the annular water cooling grooves 4022 on both sides around the axial center line of the roller core 402. In this way, the annular water cooling grooves 4022 connect the first water inlet through hole 4021 and the first return water through hole 4024. Multiple sets of water conveying grooves 4023 are provided along the axial direction on the surface of the roller core 402. The water conveying grooves 4023 penetrate each set of annular water cooling grooves 4022 and are used to connect and connect each set of annular water cooling grooves 4022.

[0070] Furthermore, the first return water through hole 4024 and the first inlet water through hole 4021 penetrate the roller core 402 and are arranged alternately along the circumference of the roller core 402. This can increase the time that cooling water flows in the corrugated roller sleeve 401 and absorb more heat.

[0071] With the annular water cooling groove 4022 at the position corresponding to the corrugated section 4012 as the center, as the distance from the middle annular water cooling groove 4022 is increased, the distribution spacing of the two annular water cooling grooves 4022 gradually decreases or the diameter of the first water inlet hole 4021 on the two annular water cooling grooves 4022 gradually increases. This can increase the cooling water flow at the position of the two annular water cooling grooves and avoid the situation where the surface of the corrugated roller sleeve 401 is uneven due to the cooling water absorbing heat and flowing in the corrugated roller sleeve 401.

[0072] like Figure 7 As shown, the cooling core rod 403 includes an outer cooling core tube 4031, an inner cooling core tube 4032, a first retaining ring 4033, and a second retaining ring 4034. The cooling core rod 403 has a second water inlet hole 4035 at the axial corresponding position of the first water inlet hole 4021. The second water inlet holes 4035 are evenly distributed around the axial center line of the cooling core rod 403. The second water inlet holes 4035 and the first water inlet holes 4021 are arranged radially in a one-to-one correspondence. This can reduce the pressure loss when the cooling water flows from the second water inlet hole 4035 into the first water inlet hole 4021. The first retaining ring 4033 and the second retaining ring 4034 are respectively arranged on both sides of the second water inlet hole 4035 to isolate the cooling water. The outer cooling core tube 4031 has a second water return hole 4036 at the axial corresponding position of the first water return hole 4024.

[0073] Furthermore, the second water inlet hole 4035 penetrates the outer cooling core tube 4031 and the inner cooling core tube 4032, and the second water return hole 4036 penetrates the outer cooling core tube 4031.

[0074] A pressure boosting ring 4037 is provided at the upper end of the second water inlet hole 4035, and the pressure boosting ring 4037 is located between the first retaining ring 4033 and the second retaining ring 4034. It is used to increase the pressure of the cooling water sprayed from the second water inlet hole 4035, reduce the time of cooling water circulation in the corrugated roller sleeve 401, and improve heat dissipation efficiency.

[0075] like Figure 8 As shown, the mandrel conveying system 6 includes a mandrel carriage 601 and a water-cooled mandrel 602. The water-cooled mandrel 602 is fixed on the mandrel carriage 601 and is used to drive the water-cooled mandrel 602 to move back and forth along the rolling axis. During rolling, the pre-made composite billet is placed on the water-cooled mandrel 602. The water-cooled mandrel 602 reduces the temperature of the mandrel by internal circulating cooling water, thereby cooling the pre-made composite billet.

[0076] A schematic diagram of the 401 corrugated roller sleeve is shown below. Figure 9 As shown, when the shape of the raised corrugation 40121 of the corrugated segment 4012 is an arc, the width along the axial direction is set to... L The unit is mm. The main dimensional parameters of the raised corrugated 40121 include the following:

[0083] when L When the diameter is 5mm, the relationship between the dimensions of the raised corrugations 40121 and the abscissa of the center of the corrugated roller sleeve 401 is obtained through the above calculations, as shown in the figure. Figure 10 As shown in the figure, when the structural dimensions of the roll are constant, the height of the flattening section is constant, while the corrugation height decreases as the horizontal coordinate of the corrugation center increases. Therefore, when the flattening section height curve and the corrugation height curve intersect, that is, when the corrugations are aligned with the flattening section, the height of the flattening section is reached. X =2.77mm, and to the left of the dividing line, the corrugation height is greater than the rolling section height, that is, the corrugation is higher than the rolling section, while to the right of the dividing line, the corrugation height is less than the rolling section height, that is, the corrugation is lower than the rolling section.

[0084] like Figure 11 As shown, the outer edge of the raised corrugations 40121 of the corrugated roll sleeve 401 is lower than the rolling flat section. At this time, the morphology of the finished seamless metal composite tube 7 rolled and composite by the high-speed rolling composite equipment is as follows. Figure 12 As shown, the macroscopic structure is a flat composite interface 701, and a micro-wave composite interface 702 can be observed by magnifying a portion of the flat composite interface 701.

[0085] like Figure 13 As shown, the outer edge of the raised corrugations 40121 of the corrugated roll sleeve 401 is flush with the rolling section. At this time, the morphology of the finished seamless metal composite tube 7 rolled and composite by the high-speed rolling composite equipment is as follows. Figure 14 As shown, a macroscopic ripple composite interface can be obtained.

[0086] As Figure 15 shown, the outer edge of the convex corrugation 40121 of the wave flattening roller sleeve 401 is higher than the flattening section, at this time, the appearance of the finished seamless metal composite pipe 7 rolled and compounded by the high-speed rolling compounding equipment is as Figure 16 shown, the macro corrugated composite interface can be obtained, and the outer surface corrugation of the seamless metal composite pipe is not flattened, showing a corrugated shape.

[0087] The following describes a high-speed rolling compounding method of a seamless metal composite pipe high-speed rolling compounding equipment of the present application in combination with an embodiment:

[0088] S1, online gradient heating: prepare the pre-compounded blank, pass the water-cooled mandrel 602 that has been started to cool into the pre-compounded blank through the mandrel conveying system 6, and send it into the online gradient heating device 5 by the mandrel trolley 601 to perform gradient temperature control heating on the surface layer of the pre-compounded blank. When the pre-compounded blank completes heating and leaves the online gradient heating device 5, the outer pipe material, the inner pipe material, and the surface to be compounded are heated to the target gradient temperature. Under the cooling action of the water-cooled mandrel 602, a stable temperature gradient ΔT is formed between the temperature of the outer pipe material and the temperature of the inner pipe material.

[0089] S2, high-speed wave flattening rolling: set the target pass size of the high-speed rolling compounding equipment, start the high-speed rolling compounding equipment, and inject circulating cooling water through the rotary joint 404 in the gradient internal cooling corrugated roller system 4. The cooling water first enters the internal cooling core pipe 4032 and is sprayed out from the second water inlet hole 4035, then flows into the first water inlet hole 4021 corresponding to the second water inlet hole 4035 after increasing the water pressure through the booster ring 4037 under the blockage of the first blocking ring 4033 and the second blocking ring 4034, and then the cooling water flows into the annular water cooling groove 4022 arranged at the position of the first water inlet hole 4021. The annular water cooling groove 4022 in the full water state sufficiently absorbs the heat generated during rolling, and finally the cooling water in the annular water cooling groove 4022 flows out to the outer cooling core pipe 4031 through the first water outlet hole 4024 and the second water inlet hole 4035, and then flows out along the outer cooling core pipe 4031 to the rotary joint 404 to realize water return. In this way, the cooling water continuously circulates in the gradient internal cooling corrugated roller system 4 to take away the heat generated during rolling to achieve the cooling effect.

[0090] The preformed composite blank with temperature gradient ΔT is rolled and compounded, gradient cooling is carried out to both sides of the corrugated section 4012, the temperature of the gradient inner cooling corrugated roller system 4 is uniformly distributed, the preformed composite blank passes through the biting section, the corrugated section, the flattening section and the expanding section in turn, under the joint action of the gradient inner cooling corrugated roller system 4 and the water-cooled mandrel 602, the heat generated by the severe plastic deformation is absorbed, the preformed composite blank has a stable temperature gradient ΔT, the deformation resistance of the component metal is controlled through the temperature gradient ΔT, the axial extension of the component metal is uniform, deformation is easy to coordinate, and the situation that a large amount of intermetallic compounds is generated due to the temperature rise of the preformed composite blank to reduce the bonding strength of the composite interface is avoided, with the gradual reduction of the diameter of the preformed composite blank and the gradual thinning of the wall thickness, the composite interface is metallurgically combined, the as-rolled seamless metal composite pipe is obtained, and the as-rolled seamless metal composite pipe is sent out by the conveying track.

[0091] S3, the finished product is stored: after the as-rolled seamless metal composite pipe passes through the sizing and finishing processes, the diameter is reduced, the wall thickness is thinned, the composite interface is metallurgically combined, the target product size is reached, the as-finished seamless metal composite pipe is obtained, after the head and tail are removed, the sizing cutting is carried out, after the heat treatment, the target comprehensive performance of the component metal and the composite interface is obtained, the finished seamless metal composite pipe is obtained, and the finished seamless metal composite pipe is packaged and stored.
