[0019] The embodiment of the invention discloses a shield machine cutter bearing heat treatment device and method.

Gas pressure sensors are also installed in the pre-cooling section 12 and the cryogenic section 13. At the inlet 4 and the outlet, a plurality of rubber sheets are vertically installed to play a role of flexible enclosure.

[0022] Refer to Figure 1-Figure 4 , the cryogenic treatment chamber includes a lower chamber body 2 and an upper chamber body 3. The upper chamber body 3 covers above the lower chamber body 2 and the length of the lower chamber body 2 is greater than that of the upper chamber body 3.

[0023] Refer to Figure 5-Figure 7 , a circulating conveyor belt 8 is horizontally installed in the lower chamber body 2. The circulating conveyor belt 8 is evenly provided with a plurality of ventilation holes; the upper surface of the circulating conveyor belt 8 is flush with the upper surface of the lower chamber body 2; the circulating conveyor belt 8 includes a driving motor, and the driving motor is communicatively connected to the controller.

[0024] As Figure 3 shown, the number of cryogenic sections 13 is multiple (to improve the temperature uniformity in a single cryogenic section 13); the upper chamber body 3 is respectively provided with chamber doors 5 at the intervals between the pre-cooling section 12 and the cryogenic sections 13, at the intervals between the cryogenic sections 13 and the heat recovery section 11, and at the intervals between different cryogenic sections 13; the lower chamber body 2 is respectively fixedly provided with partitions 10 at positions corresponding to the chamber doors 5, and through holes are opened at the positions of the partitions 10 corresponding to the circulating conveyor belt 8.

[0025] As Figure 2 shown, the chamber door 5 includes a bracket and a linear telescopic device vertically installed on the bracket. The lower end of the piston rod of the linear telescopic device is connected to the chamber door plate.

[0026] As Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 8 shown, the upper chamber body 3 is respectively provided with liquid nitrogen inlet pipes 7 at positions corresponding to the pre-cooling section 12 and the multiple cryogenic sections 13, and the lower chamber body 2 is respectively provided with nitrogen discharge pipes 6 at positions corresponding to the pre-cooling section 12 and the multiple cryogenic sections 13; a liquid nitrogen atomizing nozzle is installed inside the liquid nitrogen inlet pipe 7, and a partition portion 9 with a longitudinal cross-section in a U shape is provided inside the liquid nitrogen atomizing nozzle; the partition portion 9 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the upper chamber body 3 near the liquid nitrogen atomizing nozzle, and the liquid nitrogen atomizing nozzle atomizes and sprays liquid nitrogen into the partition portion 9 and then the liquid nitrogen absorbs heat and vaporizes.

[0027] As Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the liquid nitrogen inlet pipe 7 and the nitrogen outlet pipe 6 are respectively located at both ends of the pre-cooling section 12 or the deep cooling section 13 in the length direction, promoting the flow of nitrogen in the length direction of the pre-cooling section 12 or the deep cooling section 13 and improving the temperature uniformity of the pre-cooling section 12 or the deep cooling section 13.

[0028] The outside of the nitrogen discharge pipe 6 is connected to the gas inlet end of the liquid nitrogen generator through an air pipe, the liquid outlet end of the liquid nitrogen generator is connected to the liquid nitrogen pump through liquid pipeline 1, and the outlet of the liquid nitrogen pump is connected to the outside of the liquid nitrogen pipe 7 through liquid pipeline 2; a gas flow regulating valve is installed on the air pipe, and a liquid flow regulating valve is installed on liquid pipeline 2; the liquid nitrogen pump, the gas flow regulating valve and the liquid flow regulating valve are respectively connected to the controller for communication.

[0029] The liquid nitrogen generator mainly includes the following parts: Compression system: compresses gaseous nitrogen into high-temperature and high-pressure liquid nitrogen; Condensation system: cools the high-temperature and high-pressure liquid nitrogen to lower its temperature; Liquefaction system: further compresses and cools the cooled liquid nitrogen.

[0030] The liquid nitrogen atomizing nozzle atomizes the liquid nitrogen, and the temperature of the baffle 9 is higher than the boiling point of the liquid nitrogen. At the same time, the liquid nitrogen pump causes the liquid nitrogen droplets to collide with the baffle 9 at high speed, which promotes the gasification of the liquid nitrogen.

[0031] Example 2 A shield machine tool bearing heat treatment method, using the shield machine tool bearing heat treatment device to heat treat the shield machine tool bearing, including the following specific operating steps: Step S1, the shield machine tool bearing is carburized at 900-950°C and oil-cooled after being taken out of the furnace. The shield machine tool bearing is made of bearing steel G20CrNi2Mo; Step S2, after the oil-cooled shield machine tool bearing is cleaned, high-temperature tempering is performed, and the high-temperature tempering temperature is 500-550° C.; Step S3, then using induction heating quenching equipment to heat the surface layer of the shield machine tool bearing that has been high-temperature tempered and cooled to room temperature to 805° C. and then perform limited quenching; Step S4, the shield machine tool bearing that has completed the limited quenching is subjected to a deep cryogenic treatment for 4h-24h; Step S5: After the shield machine tool bearing reaches room temperature after the cryogenic treatment, low-temperature tempering treatment is performed.

[0032] In step S1, carburizing is completed in a vacuum carburizing furnace; the temperature in the vacuum carburizing furnace is 900°C before oil cooling.

[0033] In step S4, the shield machine tool bearing that has completed limited quenching is placed on the circulating conveyor belt 8 at the feed port 4 of the cryogenic treatment equipment, and then the shield machine tool bearing is pre-cooled in the pre-cooling section 12, deep-cooled in the deep-cooling section 13, and annealed in the annealing section 11, and finally discharged from the discharge port of the cryogenic treatment equipment.

[0034] During the cryogenic treatment of the shield machine tool bearing in the cryogenic treatment equipment, the circulating conveyor belt 8 operates in an intermittent movement mode. Before the circulating conveyor belt 8 moves, all the bin doors 5 are opened; the circulating conveyor belt 8 stops running after moving a set distance, and all the bin doors 5 are closed.

[0035] The cryogenic treatment equipment can realize continuous cryogenic treatment of multiple shield machine tool bearings. The sum of the residence time of each shield machine tool bearing in multiple cryogenic sections 13 is equal to the set cryogenic insulation time; the set temperature in the precooling section 12 is higher than the set temperature in the cryogenic section 13. In this embodiment, the set temperature of the precooling section 12 is minus 70°C; the set temperature in the cryogenic section 13 is minus 130°C; there is no liquid nitrogen atomizing nozzle in the annealing section 11, but when the chamber door 5 is opened, the low-temperature nitrogen in the adjacent cryogenic section 13 will enter the annealing section 11, so the temperature in the annealing section 11 is between the room temperature and the temperature in the cryogenic section 13. The liquid nitrogen atomizing spraying amount is adjusted by the liquid flow regulating valve on the liquid pipeline 2 to realize the temperature control in the precooling section 12 or the cryogenic section 13 (the temperature of liquid nitrogen is extremely low, which is -196°C).

[0036] The low temperature tempering temperature in step S5 is 160°C.

[0037] The tensile strength of the shield machine tool bearing obtained by the above-mentioned heat treatment method is 1495MPa, the yield strength is 1210MPa, the elongation is 12.8%, the impact energy is 74.8J, and the hardness is 47.9HRC, which are respectively improved by about 2.3%, 1.9%, 2.4%, 11.2% and 4.1.% compared with the performance obtained by the traditional heat treatment process; the contact fatigue life is increased by about 76.0% compared with the sample with the traditional heat treatment process.

[0038] Example 3 The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that nitrogen purge pipes are also installed at the corresponding positions of the upper warehouse body 3 and the precooling section 12 and the multiple cryogenic sections 13. During nitrogen purge, air is discharged from the nitrogen discharge pipe 6. The air pipe is a three-way structure, and the air discharged through the nitrogen discharge pipe 6 is discharged to the atmosphere. Before the precooling section 12 and the multiple cryogenic sections 13 are cooled by the liquid nitrogen atomizing nozzle, pure nitrogen is introduced into the precooling section 12 and the multiple cryogenic sections 13 by the nitrogen purge pipe to avoid water droplets or ice (condensed by water vapor) in the precooling section 12 and the multiple cryogenic sections 13 during the cooling process.

[0039] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
