[0031] Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of a method for forging an outlet guide vane of an aluminum alloy fan according to an embodiment of the present application, as shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown, the method comprises the following steps:

[0032] S1: Place an aluminum alloy extrusion bar with an outer dimension of 600×250×100mm, a weight of 22kg and a specification of Φ110×840mm (for example, 2219 aluminum alloy extrusion bar) in an electric furnace and heat it to the first initial forging temperature of 450°C and keep it warm for 220 minutes. After being taken out of the furnace, place it in a preheated (preheating temperature is 150°C) upsetting die for the first fire upsetting. After the first fire upsetting, air cool it to room temperature to obtain the following: Figure 2 The intermediate billet of the top forging is shown; then the intermediate billet of the top forging is heated again to the first starting forging temperature of 450°C and kept at this temperature for 220 minutes, and then placed in a preheated (preheating temperature is 150°C) top forging die for the second fire top forging, and the top forging can be obtained as shown. Figure 3 Head forging shown.

[0033] In this step, when the unpreheated upsetting die suddenly contacts the high-temperature material, a large temperature difference will be generated, resulting in thermal stress inside the die material. This thermal stress may cause microcracks on the surface or inside of the upsetting die, or even cause the die to crack. By preheating the die, the thermal shock caused by the temperature difference in the die can be reduced, thereby extending the service life of the die. In addition, preheating the upsetting die can also reduce the uneven shrinkage of the material during the cooling process, thereby improving the dimensional accuracy and shape stability of the fan outlet guide vane. However, according to experiments, the preheating temperature of the upsetting die cannot be lower than 150°C. If the preheating temperature is too low (lower than 150°C), the temperature difference between the upsetting die and the material is large, which will cause the die to be subjected to a large thermal shock, thereby increasing the risk of damage to the upsetting die. In addition, if the temperature of the upsetting die is too low, the material will cool rapidly after entering the die, affecting the fluidity of the material, and causing the material to be unable to completely fill the die cavity, resulting in incomplete shape of the forging or excessive dimensional deviation.

[0034] S2: The top forging is placed in an electric furnace and heated to the second initial forging temperature of 450°C and kept warm for 280 minutes. After being taken out of the furnace, the top forging is placed in a preheated (preheating temperature is 300°C) pre-forging die for pre-forging. After forging is completed, the top forging is air-cooled to room temperature to obtain Figure 4 Preforging shown.

[0035] S3: The pre-forged piece is placed in an electric furnace and heated to the third initial forging temperature of 450°C and kept at this temperature for 200 minutes. After being taken out of the furnace, the pre-forged piece is placed in a preheated final forging die (preheating temperature is 300°C) for final forging. After forging is completed, the pre-forged piece is air-cooled to room temperature to obtain the following Figure 5 Fan outlet guide vanes shown.

[0036] In step S2 and step S3, the preheating temperature of the pre-forging die and the final forging die cannot be lower than 300°C. If the temperature is too low, firstly, the temperature difference between the die and the high-temperature material will be too large, which may cause cracks on the surface or inside of the die; secondly, the material will cool down rapidly after entering the die, affecting the fluidity of the material and increasing the generation of defects such as pores and cracks, thereby affecting the molding quality of the final product.

[0037] In another exemplary embodiment, the present application also provides a forging method for an aluminum alloy fan outlet guide vane, the method comprising the following steps:

[0038] S10: Place a 2219 aluminum alloy extruded bar with an outer dimension of 600×250×100mm, a weight of 22kg and a specification of Φ110×840mm in an electric furnace, heat it to a first starting forging temperature of 470°C and keep it warm for 220 minutes, then place it in a preheated (preheating temperature is 200°C) upsetting die for a first upsetting, and air cool it to room temperature after the first upsetting to obtain an intermediate billet for upsetting; then heat the intermediate billet for upsetting to a first starting forging temperature of 470°C again and keep it warm for 220 minutes, then place it in a preheated (preheating temperature is 200°C) upsetting die for a second upsetting to obtain an upsetting.

[0039] In this step, the preheating temperature of the upset die cannot be higher than 200°C. If the preheating temperature is too high (more than 200°C), the temperature difference between the upset die and the material will be further reduced, but this will also cause the die temperature to approach or exceed the initial forging temperature of the material, thereby affecting the fluidity of the material and causing poor filling of the material in the die. In addition, too high a die temperature will also cause the material to stay in the die for too long, increasing the possibility of oxidation on the material surface and affecting the surface quality of the final product.

[0040] S20: placing the top forging in an electric furnace and heating it to a second initial forging temperature of 470° C. and keeping it warm for 280 minutes; after being taken out of the furnace, placing the top forging in a preheated (preheating temperature is 350° C.) pre-forging mold for pre-forging; after forging is completed, air cooling is performed to room temperature to obtain the pre-forging.

[0041] S30: placing the pre-forged piece in an electric furnace and heating it to the third initial forging temperature of 470°C and keeping it warm for 200 minutes. After being taken out of the furnace, placing the pre-forged piece in a preheated (preheating temperature is 350°C) final forging die for final forging. After forging is completed, air is cooled to room temperature to obtain a fan outlet guide vane.

[0042] In step S20 and step S30, the preheating temperature of the pre-forging die and the final forging die cannot be higher than 350°C. Experiments have shown that if the temperature is higher than 350°C, firstly, it will cause greater thermal stress inside the pre-forging die and the final forging die, increasing the risk of die cracking; secondly, the die temperature is too high, causing the material to heat up rapidly after entering the die, resulting in poor material fluidity and failure to fully fill the die cavity, thereby affecting the shape and dimensional accuracy of the forging; thirdly, if the temperature is too high, it will cause the grains inside the material to grow rapidly, and the coarse grains will reduce the strength and toughness of the material, thereby affecting the mechanical properties of the fan outlet guide vane.

[0043] Therefore, the preheating temperature of the pre-forging die and the final forging die is set between 300 and 350°C. Firstly, the temperature difference between the die and the high-temperature material can be kept within a reasonable range, thereby reducing the thermal stress generated inside the die material and minimizing the risk of cracking of the die due to thermal stress; secondly, the surface and internal temperatures of the die are made more uniform to avoid overheating or overcooling, which helps the material flow more evenly in the die and reduces the occurrence of poor filling and defects, thereby maximizing the dimensional accuracy and shape stability of the fan outlet guide vane.

[0044] In another exemplary embodiment, the burrs of the pre-forging obtained after the pre-forging and the fan outlet guide vane obtained after the final forging need to be machined to be removed.

[0045] In this embodiment, during the forging process, when the material flows in the die, excess metal parts, i.e., burrs, may be formed at the edges. These burrs will affect the dimensional accuracy of the forgings. By removing the burrs through machining, it can be ensured that the size and shape of the forgings meet the design requirements. In addition, the burrs are prone to become stress concentration areas, which may cause fatigue cracks. By removing the burrs, these potential stress concentration points can be reduced, thereby improving the fatigue strength and service life of the fan outlet guide vanes.

[0046] In another exemplary embodiment, after the fan outlet guide vane is obtained, it is necessary to perform a solution treatment, a cold compression treatment and an aging treatment on the fan outlet guide vane.

[0047] In this embodiment, the fan outlet guide vane is subjected to a solution treatment, including: heating the fan outlet guide vane in an electric furnace at 529-541°C, keeping the temperature at this temperature for 4-5 hours, and cooling the fan outlet guide vane with water (water temperature ≤ 30°C) to room temperature. At a high temperature of 529-541°C, the second phase (such as Mg2Si, CuAl2, etc.) in the fan outlet guide vane will dissolve into the matrix to form a uniform solid solution. Through the solution treatment, the distribution of alloy elements in the matrix becomes more uniform, which can eliminate the uneven structure formed during the casting or forging process, thereby improving the comprehensive performance of the fan outlet guide vane. In addition, through the solution treatment, since the distribution of alloy elements in the matrix is ​​more uniform and the grains are refined, the yield strength, tensile strength and plasticity of the fan outlet guide vane can be improved, making it easier to form and use in subsequent processing. The cold compression treatment of the fan outlet guide vane after the solution treatment includes: placing the fan outlet guide vane in a special cold compression mold (using a special cold compression mold, the mold has a certain gap, which can accommodate the deformation caused by the cold compression of the forging, so that the forging can quickly reach the required cold deformation), and completing the cold compression deformation in a hydraulic press, and the deformation is 2% to 5%. Through the cold compression treatment, the yield strength and tensile strength of the fan outlet guide vane can be significantly improved. This is because during the cold compression process, the lattice inside the fan outlet guide vane will undergo dislocation proliferation and slip, resulting in grain refinement, thereby improving the strength of the fan outlet guide vane. In addition, the cold compression treatment can further refine the grains of the fan outlet guide vane, making the grains more uniform and fine, and the fine grains can improve the plasticity and toughness of the fan outlet guide vane, and also help to improve the strength of the fan outlet guide vane. Further, the cold compression treatment can also make the microstructure inside the fan outlet guide vane more uniform, eliminate local unevenness, and thus improve the overall performance of the fan outlet guide vane. It should be noted that, according to tests, controlling the deformation within 2% to 5% can ensure that the fan outlet guide vanes will not produce excessive plastic deformation or cracks while improving the strength.

[0048] The aging treatment of the fan outlet guide vane after cold compression treatment includes: putting the fan outlet guide vane into the furnace at 177°C, keeping it warm for 18 hours, and cooling the air out of the furnace to room temperature. Through the aging treatment, certain solute atoms (such as magnesium, copper, etc.) inside the fan outlet guide vane will precipitate from the solid solution to form fine second phase particles, which can hinder the movement of dislocations, thereby improving the strength and hardness of the fan outlet guide vane. The precipitated fine second phase particles are distributed throughout the matrix, forming a dispersion strengthening effect, which can further improve the yield strength and tensile strength of the fan outlet guide vane. In addition, the fine second phase particles can also reduce the defects and stress concentration points inside the fan outlet guide vane, thereby improving the fatigue performance of the fan outlet guide vane and extending its service life. Furthermore, residual stress may be generated inside the fan outlet guide vane during the cold compression process. Through aging treatment, these residual stresses can be released, thereby improving the dimensional stability and shape stability of the fan outlet guide vane.

[0049] In the above embodiment, the present application preheats the top forging die, pre-forging die and final forging die before forging, the purpose is: 1. Reduce thermal shock: When the unpreheated die suddenly contacts the high-temperature material, a large temperature difference will be generated, which will cause thermal stress inside the die material. This thermal stress will cause micro cracks on the surface or inside of the die, and even cause the die to crack. By preheating, the thermal shock caused by the temperature difference of the die can be reduced, thereby extending the service life of the die. 2. Improve the fluidity of the aluminum alloy material: Preheating the die can make the surface and internal temperature of the die more uniform, avoid local overheating or overcooling, help the material flow more evenly in the die, and reduce the generation of poor filling and defects. After the die is preheated, the temperature difference between the material and the die surface is reduced, which can reduce the possibility of material adhesion to the die, thereby improving the demolding effect. 3. Improve the molding accuracy: Preheating the die can reduce the uneven shrinkage of the material during the cooling process, thereby improving the dimensional accuracy and shape stability of the fan outlet guide vane. In addition, preheating the mold can ensure that the material is filled more fully and evenly in the mold, reduce the generation of defects such as pores and cracks, and improve the molding quality of the final product.

[0050] In the above embodiment, the first forging temperature, the second forging temperature and the third forging temperature are all set to 450°C to 470°C. The reason is that within this temperature range, the 2219 aluminum alloy has good plasticity, is easy to deform, and can better fill the mold, thereby obtaining a forging with accurate shape and stable size. In addition, within this temperature range, it is also helpful to control the grain refinement inside the 2219 aluminum alloy material and avoid the formation of coarse grains, thereby improving the mechanical properties of the fan outlet guide vane, especially the tensile strength and yield strength. It should be noted that, through experimental tests, if the first initial forging temperature, the second initial forging temperature and the third initial forging temperature are higher than 470°C, firstly, the internal grains of the 2219 aluminum alloy will grow rapidly, and the coarse grains will reduce the strength and toughness of the material, affecting the mechanical properties of the fan outlet guide vane; secondly, the surface of the 2219 aluminum alloy is prone to severe oxidation reaction, thereby forming oxide scale, which not only affects the surface quality of the forging, but also increases the difficulty of subsequent processing; thirdly, if the temperature is too high, the thermal stress and residual stress of the 2219 aluminum alloy will increase, and thermal cracks will easily occur, thereby affecting the overall quality and reliability of the fan outlet guide vane. In addition, since the plasticity of the 2219 aluminum alloy is poor and it is not easy to deform, therefore, if the first initial forging temperature, the second initial forging temperature and the third initial forging temperature are lower than 450°C, firstly, it is easy to cause the 2219 aluminum alloy to crack or break, resulting in forging failure; secondly, it is difficult for the 2219 aluminum alloy to completely fill the mold cavity, which may cause the forging shape to be incomplete or the size deviation to be too large. In summary, the present application sets the first to third initial forging temperatures between 450°C and 470°C, with the aim of balancing the plastic fluidity and microstructural stability of the 2219 aluminum alloy, ensuring a smooth forging process, and ultimately obtaining high-quality 2219 aluminum alloy fan outlet guide vanes.

[0051] Next, the present application conducted room temperature tensile tests on the 2219 aluminum alloy fan outlet guide vanes obtained through the above steps and the 2219 aluminum alloy fan outlet guide vanes obtained by forging based on the existing method. The test results are shown in Table 1 and Table 2 respectively:

[0052] Table 1

[0053]

[0054]

[0055] Table 2

[0056]

[0057] As can be seen from Table 1, the tensile strength values ​​of all samples are between 448MPa and 465MPa, with an average value close to 457MPa, which is much higher than the standard requirements of 427MPa (L direction) and 427MPa (LT direction). The yield strength values ​​of all samples are between 344MPa and 357MPa, with an average value close to 352MPa, which meets and exceeds the standard requirements of 345MPa (L direction) and 338MPa (LT direction). The elongation values ​​of all samples are mostly between 6.7% and 14.8%, with only a few samples slightly lower than the standard requirements of 6% (L direction) and 4% (LT direction).

[0058] As can be seen from Table 2, the tensile strength values ​​of all samples are between 401MPa and 456MPa, and some samples do not meet the standard requirements of 427MPa (L direction) and 427MPa (LT direction). The yield strength values ​​of all samples are between 313MPa and 346MPa, and many samples do not meet the standard requirements of 345MPa (L direction) and 338MPa (LT direction). The elongation values ​​of all samples are between 9.0% and 17.7%. Although the elongation of most samples meets the standard requirements, the yield strength and tensile strength are generally low.

[0059] In summary, it can be seen from Table 1 and Table 2 that the aluminum alloy fan outlet guide vane forging method proposed in this application has obvious advantages in improving the mechanical properties of the product, and can better meet the standard requirements and actual application needs.

[0060] In another exemplary embodiment, the present application also provides an aluminum alloy fan outlet guide vane, such as Figure 5 As shown, the aluminum alloy fan outlet guide vane includes: a guide vane body 1, a blade root 2 is integrally connected to one side of the guide vane body 1, a blade tip 4 is integrally connected to the other side of the guide vane body 1, the blade root 2 is integrally connected to a first boss 3, the blade tip 4 is integrally connected to a second boss 5, and the first boss 3 and the second boss 5 are symmetrically arranged.

[0061] In this embodiment, the blade root 2 is used to mount the aluminum alloy fan outlet guide vane to the housing or other components of the engine to ensure that the aluminum alloy fan outlet guide vane can be firmly fixed when rotating at high speed. The design of the blade tip 4 helps to optimize the flow of airflow, reduce turbulence and resistance, and improve the efficiency of the engine. The first boss 3 and the second boss 5 are symmetrically arranged, which not only enhances the structural stability of the aluminum alloy fan outlet guide vane, but also can effectively disperse the pressure generated by the airflow, prevent local overload, and extend the service life of the guide vane.

[0062] The design of the guide vane body, blade tip and blade root can optimize the flow path of the airflow, reduce turbulence and resistance, and improve the efficiency of the engine. Among them, the design of the blade tip is particularly important, which can effectively guide the airflow and ensure a smooth transition of the airflow. By optimizing the airflow characteristics, the combustion efficiency and thrust output of the engine can be improved, thereby improving the overall performance.
