Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of heat treatment technology, and in particular to a heat treatment method and tooling for curved rail forgings. Background Art
[0002] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the curved rail is a type of arched forging with a small effective cross-section but a large diameter. It is formed by forging, stamping and bending, and then needs to go through a specific heat treatment process to achieve the mechanical performance parameters required by the design, so as to meet the requirements of the use environment. During this heating, quenching and cooling performance heat treatment process, the forging is prone to deformation, and quality defects such as bending and upper mouth expansion occur, making the workpiece unable to meet the design size. Most of them need to be bent again and stress relief treatment. Severe deformation may even lead to product scrapping.
[0003] Since the effective cross-section of the curved rail itself is small, and its diameter is large (e.g., effective cross-section ~240mm, shape ~R4220 / R3980×340mm, arc length ~8050mm, weight ~5200kg), the biggest difficulty in heat treatment of such thin-walled large-size forgings is deformation prevention. When heat treating the curved rail for performance, not too much heat treatment allowance will be added considering its hardenability. However, the performance heat treatment is a process of rapid heating and instantaneous rapid cooling. The uneven hot and cold inside and outside of the forgings leads to large changes in the internal structure of the material, and the shape is severely deformed and cannot meet the subsequent processing size requirements. Moreover, it is difficult to load and hoist such special-shaped parts as curved rails, and improper operation will also aggravate its deformation. Summary of the invention

[0048] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the curved track.
[0049] Curved rails are a type of circular arch forgings with a small effective cross-section but a large diameter. They are manufactured using a forging, stamping, bending and heat treatment process. During conventional heat treatment, quality defects such as bending and upper mouth expansion are prone to occur, making the workpiece unable to meet the design dimensions. Most of them require further bending correction and stress relief treatment. Severe deformation may even lead to product scrapping.
[0050] Embodiment 1:
[0051] See also Figure 2-6 , Figure 2 A flow chart of the method of this application; Figure 3 It is a structural schematic diagram of a tray 100 in the tooling of this application; Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of loading two curved rails 1 for heat treatment in the same furnace for this application; Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the heat treatment furnace for a single curved rail 1 of this application; Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of loading multiple curved rails 1 for heat treatment in the same furnace for this application.
[0052] The embodiment of the present application provides a method for heat treatment of curved rail 1 forgings, using a tooling, through which the deformation of thin-walled forgings caused by deadweight and uneven force during lifting and heating is effectively reduced, and at the same time, the large deformation of the forgings caused by the rapid change of internal structure during heating and cooling is effectively prevented, thereby avoiding the risk of subsequent orthopedic treatment or large deformation leading to product scrapping, thereby accelerating the production cycle, reducing production costs, and improving production quality. In addition, the tooling can be used multiple times in production and applied to the heat treatment of products of the same type and different sizes.
[0053] The tooling includes a tray 100, a plurality of limiter assemblies 200, and a positioning member 300 and / or a counterweight assembly 400. The tray 100 is disc-shaped and has a flat bearing surface 101. The limiter assembly 200 includes two side limiters 210 and a top limiter for connecting the two side limiters 21. The counterweight assembly 400 includes a counterweight 410 and a connecting member 420.
[0054] The method includes:
[0055] S1 hoisting the curved rail 1: hoist the curved rail 1 onto the load-bearing surface 101 of the pallet 100, and determine the position of the curved rail 1 on the load-bearing surface 101 of the pallet 100 and / or place the counterweight 410 according to the number of the curved rails 1, so that the weight of the pallet 100 is balanced, and ensure that the curved rails 1 are symmetrically placed as a group, or a curved rail 1 and a counterweight 410 are placed as a group.
[0056] S2 Leveling the pallet 100: trimming the pallet 100, or filling the gap between the pallet 100 and the curved rail 1, so that the curved rail 1 and the pallet 100 are completely fitted.
[0057] Since the strength of forgings decreases at high temperatures, they are easily deformed due to their own gravity if they are not placed flat. Therefore, the tray 100 must be adjusted as horizontally as possible during use to keep it in a good horizontal state.
[0058] In order to reduce the deformation of the curved rail 1 during the heating process in the furnace, the upper and lower surfaces of the tray 100 must be processed to be flat, especially the upper surface in contact with the curved rail 1 must be very flat, so that it can be completely in contact with the lower surface of the workpiece. When the tray 100 is deformed after being used for many times, it must be processed and rectified in time. When the deformation is small, you can check the gaps when loading the furnace and use small shims to fill them.
[0059] S3 welding limit assembly 200 and assembling positioning member 300 and / or connecting member 420:
[0060] A plurality of limit assemblies 200 are arranged along the extension direction of the curved rail 1, and the two side limit members 210 of the same limit assembly 200 clamp the curved rail 1 radially along the curved rail 1 respectively, and the side limit members 210 are welded to the tray 100, and after the side limit members 210 are fully fitted to the side of the curved rail 1 by padding, the tops of the two side limit members 210 are welded with the top limit members over the curved rail 1, and the gaps are filled.
[0061] The positioning member 300 is placed between the inner vertices of the two symmetrically arranged curved rails 1 to fill the gap.
[0062] And / or, the connecting member 420 is abutted between the midpoint of the side of the counterweight 410 and the inner vertex of the curved track 1 to fill the gap.
[0063] S4: Laying the pallet 100: hoisting the pallet 100 with the curved rail 1 installed onto the supporting pads in the heating furnace as a whole, and performing heat treatment. After the heat treatment, hoisting the pallet 100 as a whole is removed from the heating furnace.
[0064] That is, the pallet 100 equipped with the curved rail 1 is hoisted as a whole onto the supporting pads in the heating furnace by a crane. Since the pallet 100 is a circular structure, it is preferably hoisted and placed using a two-point hoist or a three-point hoist auxiliary hoist in conjunction with a crane.
[0065] At this time, the curved rail 1 has been assembled, and the lifting process must be careful to avoid collisions that cause the curved rail 1 to shift, etc. At the same time, you can check again whether the pallet 100, the pad iron and the curved rail 1 are completely fitted, and fill the gaps.
[0066] S5 cleaning the pallet 100: after the heat treatment is completed, a carbon planer is used to remove the side limiters 210 welded on the pallet 100, and after the flatness of the pallet 100 is lower than a threshold, correction is performed for subsequent use.
[0067] In one embodiment, the tray 100 includes a plurality of ribs 130 extending radially outward from the center of the tray 100 evenly, and overflow spaces 131 are formed between adjacent ribs 130 in the thickness direction thereof. The surface of each rib 130 in the thickness direction thereof forms a bearing surface 101 .
[0068] At this time, in step S1 , the curved rail 1 is placed on some of the plurality of supporting ribs 130 , and the curved rail 1 is evenly supported by some of the plurality of supporting ribs 130 .
[0069] In step S3 , the side limiter 210 is welded to the support rib 130 .
[0070] In this method, multiple points of contact are achieved between the multiple support ribs 130 of the tray 100 and the curved rail 1, so that the support points of the forging can be distributed as evenly as possible, and the contact area between the forging and the tooling can be increased, thereby reducing the heat treatment deformation of the thin-walled forging due to uneven support.
[0071] At the same time, since the volume of the support ribs 130 is smaller than the entire pallet 100, the overflow space 131 between the support ribs 130 is relatively large. Therefore, on the one hand, the weight of the pallet 100 can be reduced and the difficulty of lifting can be reduced. On the other hand, it can effectively ensure the rapid flow of quenching liquid during quenching of the curved rail 1 and the full contact between the quenching liquid and the forging, thereby improving the quenching effect and achieving the mechanical properties.
[0072] Furthermore, the side limiting member 210 is welded on the supporting rib 130 , which can further improve the limiting effect, strengthen the integrity of the curved rail 1 and the tray 100 , and further control the deformation of the curved rail 1 during the heat treatment process.
[0073] Generally, the number of the limiting components 200 can be determined according to the number of contact points between the curved rail 1 and the supporting ribs 130 of the tray 100 .
[0074] Usually, the curved rail 1 is heat treated in the same furnace in two pieces as a group, so as to take into account both efficiency and heat treatment effect.
[0075] In one embodiment, see Figure 4 In step S1 , when the tray 100 carries two curved rails 1 , the two curved rails 1 are placed symmetrically with respect to the center of the tray 100 , that is, they are centrally symmetrical, and their openings are both facing the center of the tray 100 .
[0076] In one embodiment, the method can also be used for heat treatment of a single curved rail 1, see Figure 5 When the pallet 100 carries a single curved rail 1 , the curved rail 1 is placed on one side of the pallet 100 with its opening facing the center of the pallet 100 , and the counterweight 410 is placed on the other side of the pallet 100 .
[0077] In one embodiment, the method can also be used for heat treatment of multiple curved rails 1. It is only necessary to ensure the overall counterweight balance and to form a whole in pairs, that is, to form two opposite curved rails 1 into a whole through the positioning member 300, and the curved rails 1 that cannot be formed into a whole through the positioning member 300 are formed into a whole with the counterweight assembly.
[0078] Take four curved rails 1 as an example, see Figure 6 When the pallet 100 carries four curved rails 1, the four curved rails 1 are symmetrically arranged in pairs with respect to the center of the pallet 100 and are arranged inside and outside. The openings of the four curved rails 1 are all facing the center of the pallet 100, and a counterweight 410 is placed on the inner side of the outer curved rail 1. The two counterweights 410 are symmetrically arranged with respect to the center of the pallet 100.
[0079] In the above method, when the curved rail 1 is placed on the pallet 100, the center of the pallet 100 is used as the center to achieve uniform contact between the curved rail 1 and the support rib 130, thereby increasing the contact area between the forging and the tooling as much as possible, avoiding heat treatment deformation of the forging due to uneven support, and facilitating subsequent positioning operations.
[0080] In one embodiment, in steps S2-S3, padding or filling is performed by using pad iron, refractory wool or iron filings.
[0081] In one embodiment, in step S4, two-point lifting or three-point lifting is adopted.
[0082] Embodiment 2:
[0083] See also Figure 3-6 The embodiment of the present application further provides a tooling for heat treatment of a curved rail 1 forging, comprising a tray 100, a plurality of limit assemblies 200, and a positioning member 300 and / or a counterweight assembly 400 arranged on the tray 100. The curved rail 1 is supported by the tray 100 in the tooling, and the deformation of the curved rail 1 is limited by the limit assemblies and the counterweight assemblies, thereby effectively reducing the deformation of the thin-walled forgings caused by their own weight and uneven force during the lifting and heating processes, and at the same time effectively preventing the large deformation of the forgings' outer dimensions caused by the rapid changes in the internal structure during the heating and cooling processes, thereby avoiding the risk of subsequent corrective treatment or large deformation leading to product scrapping.
[0084] In one embodiment, the tray 100 is in the shape of a disk and has a flat bearing surface 101 to provide a foundation for the forgings to be placed flatly.
[0085] Generally, the tray 100 is designed according to the characteristics of the lifting device of the forging in the high temperature state, and heat-resistant steel is selected and then cast. After casting, the upper and lower planes need to be machined to ensure its flatness in the height direction.
[0086] In addition, the diameter of the pallet 100 can be adjusted according to the size of the heating furnace and the size of the curved rail 1. In order to meet the use of curved rails 1 of various specifications and improve the versatility of the pallet 100, the pallet 100 can be designed to be slightly larger if the size of the furnace body allows. However, it cannot be enlarged indefinitely to avoid excessive weight of the pallet 100, which will increase energy consumption and lifting difficulty during the heating process.
[0087] In one embodiment, the tray 100 includes a plurality of ribs 130 extending radially outward from the center of the tray 100 and extending uniformly, and an overflow space 131 penetrating the thickness direction of the tray 100 is formed between adjacent ribs 130, and the surface of each rib 130 in the thickness direction forms the bearing surface 101. Preferably, the ribs 130 are in the shape of long strips.
[0088] In this method, multiple points of contact are achieved between the multiple support ribs 130 of the tray 100 and the curved rail 1, so that the support points of the forging can be distributed as evenly as possible, and the contact area between the forging and the tooling can be increased, thereby reducing the heat treatment deformation of the thin-walled forging due to uneven support.
[0089] At the same time, since the volume of the support ribs 130 is smaller than the entire pallet 100, the overflow space 131 between the support ribs 130 is relatively large. Therefore, on the one hand, the weight of the pallet 100 can be reduced and the difficulty of lifting can be reduced. On the other hand, it can effectively ensure the rapid flow of quenching liquid during quenching of the curved rail 1 and the full contact between the quenching liquid and the forging, thereby improving the quenching effect and achieving the mechanical properties.
[0090] In one embodiment, the pallet 100 includes an inner ring 110 and an outer ring 120 which are concentrically arranged, and the inner ring 110 and the outer ring 120 are connected by a plurality of ribs 130, thereby effectively controlling the weight of the pallet 100 and reducing the difficulty of lifting while ensuring the strength of the pallet 100.
[0091] At this time, the inner ring 110, the outer ring 120 and the support ribs 130 are arranged to form an overflow space 131, and the connection between the three is an arc transition, thereby improving the service life of the tray 100 and avoiding problems such as cracking caused by uneven heating and cooling of the tray 100 itself during the heating and cooling process along with the curved rail 1.
[0092] In one embodiment, an overflow groove 132 connected to the corresponding overflow space 131 is provided between adjacent support ribs 130. The overflow groove 132 extends radially outward from the center of the tray 100 and penetrates the surfaces of the inner ring 110 and the outer ring 120 at corresponding positions, thereby improving the flow stability of the quenching liquid.
[0093] Preferably, adjacent overflow grooves 132 are disposed on two side surfaces of the tray 100 in the thickness direction, so as to facilitate the front and back use of the tray 100.
[0094] In one embodiment, the limiting assembly 200 includes two side limiting members 210 , and the two side limiting members 210 of the same limiting assembly 200 are used to clamp the curved rail 1 radially along the curved rail 1 , thereby limiting radial deformation of the curved rail 1 during heat treatment.
[0095] Preferably, the side limiter 210 is welded to the support rib 130 of the pallet 100 after clamping the curved rail 1, so as to further improve the limiting effect, strengthen the integrity of the curved rail 1 and the pallet 100, and further control the deformation of the curved rail 1 during the heat treatment process.
[0096] Usually, the number of the limiting components 200 can be determined according to the number of contact points between the curved rail 1 and the support ribs 130 of the tray 100. The side limiting member 210 can be in any shape as long as it can achieve the clamping and limiting function, such as a quadrangular prism, a triangular prism, etc.
[0097] Furthermore, the clamping surface of the side limiter 210 clamping the curved rail 1 is filled to fit with the curved rail 1, thereby further improving the limiting effect. Alternatively, the clamping surface of the side limiter 210 is a curved surface that fits the curved rail 1.
[0098] Preferably, the side limiter 210 is a right-angled triangular prism, which is easy to process and saves materials. Further preferably, the side where the hypotenuse of the side limiter 210 is located is a clamping surface, so as to obtain the largest clamping surface, and the right angle relative to the clamping surface is set to obtain the best limiting effect.
[0099] In one embodiment, the limiting assembly 200 further includes a top limiting member, which is welded to the tops of the two side limiting members 210, so that the two side limiting members 210 form a whole, further improving the limiting effect. Preferably, the top limiting member cooperates with the tray 100 to clamp the curved rail 1, further improving the limiting effect on the curved rail 1.
[0100] The shape of the top limiting member is not limited as long as it can achieve the connection and / or limiting function, such as a flat steel plate.
[0101] In one embodiment, the positioning member 300 is used to abut between the inner vertices of two symmetrically arranged curved rails 1. Preferably, the positioning member 300 is rod-shaped.
[0102] In one embodiment, the weight assembly 400 includes a weight member 410 and a connecting member 420 .
[0103] The counterweight 410 is used to be disposed on the bearing surface 101 of the pallet 100 so as to balance the weight of the pallet 100 .
[0104] The connecting member 420 is used to abut between the side midpoint of the counterweight 410 and the inner vertex of the curved track 1, so that the counterweight 410 and the curved track 1 form a whole and can limit the inner deformation of the curved track 1. Preferably, the connecting member 420 is rod-shaped.
[0105] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, rather than to limit it. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein with equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application.
