Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of forging, and in particular relates to a tapered sleeve forging method. Background Art

[0002] The tapered sleeve is a common mechanical part, widely used in various mechanical equipment, especially in the fixing and protection of shaft parts. The production process of the tapered sleeve mainly involves forging, heat treatment, machining and other links. However, in the current forging process, the production of the tapered sleeve needs to go through multiple firings, and each firing needs to be adjusted according to the shape and size of the blank. During this process, tools need to be replaced frequently, which makes the overall production time longer and easily leads to irregular shapes of the blanks. Multiple forming and rework are required, which increases production costs and scrap rates. In the later stage of forging, although the required degree of deformation of the blank is relatively small, the temperature of the blank is much higher than the final forging temperature, resulting in heat waste, which not only reduces energy utilization efficiency, but also has an adverse effect on the quality of the final product.

[0003] Therefore, a tapered sleeve forging method is now needed that can reduce production fire times, improve energy efficiency and reduce rework and scrap rates. Summary of the invention

[0004] The object of the present invention is to provide a tapered sleeve forging method, which can reduce the number of production fires, improve energy utilization efficiency and reduce the rework and scrap rate.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: A method for forging a tapered sleeve comprises the following steps: Step S1: selecting a steel ingot and preheating the steel ingot, performing main deformation and blanking treatment on the steel ingot, and then cutting off the ingot tail to eliminate cracks and inclusions; Step S2: placing the pre-treated blank on the lower platform, clamping the blank with a clamp, upsetting the blank with an upper flat anvil to make the blank reach the required design height of the tapered sleeve, and then rolling the upset blank to the maximum design diameter required by the tapered sleeve and performing end surface flattening operation; Step S3: placing the rounded blank on the lower inclined flat anvil, clamping the end face of the blank with a clamp, performing taper forming on the blank by using the cooperation of the upper flat anvil and the lower inclined flat anvil, and gradually adjusting the inclination angle of the blank during the forming process; Step S4: Use a solid punch to align with the end face of the blank and perform a punching operation, and ensure that the solid punch is perpendicular to the end face of the blank during the punching process; Step S5: trimming the blank, including removing burrs and flash, to complete the forging of the tapered sleeve.

[0006] A further improvement of the technical solution of the present invention is that the angle of the lower inclined flat anvil is 28 mm for every 100 mm of length.

[0007] A further improvement of the technical solution of the present invention is that the taper drop of the conical sleeve is 32-36 mm for every 100 mm of diameter.

[0008] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the technical progress achieved by the present invention is: The tapered sleeve forging method of the present invention can effectively reduce the number of production fires in the entire forging process by integrating multiple processes into fewer fires, significantly improve production efficiency and energy utilization efficiency, and can accurately control the size and shape of the tapered sleeve by using the cooperation of an upper flat anvil and a lower inclined flat anvil to perform taper forming and gradually adjust the inclination angle of the blank, thereby reducing rework and scrap rates. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0009] Figure 1 It is a schematic structural diagram of a lower inclined flat anvil used in the tapered sleeve forging method of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0010] The present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with embodiments: The present invention provides a tapered sleeve forging method, comprising the following steps: Step S1: selecting a steel ingot and preheating the steel ingot, performing main deformation and blanking treatment on the steel ingot, and then cutting off the ingot tail to eliminate cracks and inclusions; Step S2: placing the pre-treated blank on the lower platform, clamping the blank with a clamp, upsetting the blank with an upper flat anvil to make the blank reach the required design height of the tapered sleeve, and then rolling the upset blank to the maximum design diameter required by the tapered sleeve and performing end surface flattening operation; Step S3: Place the rounded blank on the lower oblique flat anvil, clamp the end face of the blank with a clamp, and taper the blank by using the upper flat anvil and the lower oblique flat anvil, and gradually adjust the inclination angle of the blank during the forming process, such as Figure 1 As shown, the angle of the lower bevel anvil is 28mm for every 100mm of length; Step S4: Use a solid punch to align with the end face of the blank and perform a punching operation, and ensure that the solid punch is perpendicular to the end face of the blank during the punching process; Step S5: trimming the blank, including removing burrs and flash, and completing the forging of the tapered sleeve, wherein the tapered sleeve has a height of 32-36 mm for every 100 mm of diameter.

[0011] By integrating multiple processes into fewer fires, the number of production fires in the entire forging process can be effectively reduced, and production efficiency and energy utilization efficiency can be significantly improved. By using the upper flat anvil and the lower inclined flat anvil for taper forming and gradually adjusting the inclination angle of the billet, the size and shape of the tapered sleeve can be accurately controlled, reducing rework and scrap rates.
