Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of steel casting processing technology, in particular to a method for manufacturing a petal ring of a large-scale ring-type steel casting. Background Art

[0002] With the maturity and development of my country's large-scale hydropower unit technology and the construction of large power stations, the diameter of the turbine's core component, the runner, has also increased accordingly. The diameter of common large-scale runner steel castings reaches φ4000~7000mm. For higher-power hydropower stations, such as the Wudongde Hydropower Station and the Baihetan Hydropower Station, the runner diameter reaches 10 meters. For such large runners, due to road width and transportation capacity limitations, manufacturers are generally required to split the runner into petals before delivering it to the power station site, and then weld it into a runner at the site for production. The so-called petal splitting refers to dividing the runner evenly along the circumference into several equal parts (generally 2 to 4 equal parts), and each equal part of the runner is a petal ring. When the petal ring casting is supplied in petals, if the petal ring is cast as an independent steel casting, there are many manufacturing difficulties, which are mainly manifested as follows:

[0003] 1. As a separate curved surface, the thermal stress and tissue stress generated during the manufacturing process of the individual petal ring cannot be constrained, the stress deformation is uncontrolled, and the deformation generated is extremely difficult to repair by technological means.

[0004] 2. When loading a single split ring into a furnace for high temperature heat treatment, in order to ensure the mechanical properties of the product material and reduce deformation, it is better to load the product vertically. However, it is very difficult to load the single split ring vertically, and special matching furnace loading tooling is required. Due to the addition of the tooling, it is basically impossible to ensure that the heating or cooling uniformity of the casting is not affected.

[0005] 3. In order to offset the risk of shortage caused by deformation, more deformation correction and casting allowance need to be considered in the casting process design, which will lead to low utilization rate of casting molten steel and high manufacturing cost. Summary of the invention

[0012] S5: removing the feeding system and the casting pouring system from the integral casting to obtain a full-ring casting;

[0013] S6: placing the whole ring casting into a furnace for heat treatment, wherein the heat treatment includes normalizing and tempering;

[0014] S7: The whole ring casting that has passed the S6 heat treatment is cut along the center line of the connecting rib to split the whole ring casting into petal rings and remove the connecting rib.

[0015] Further, in step S2, the width of the connecting rib is 50 mm to 100 mm.

[0016] Further, in step S6, the normalizing is to heat the whole ring casting to 100°C to 250°C above the Ac3 point of the material, keep it warm and then cool it quickly; the tempering is to heat the whole ring casting to 20°C to 30°C above the Ac1 point of the material, keep it warm and then cool it slowly; the normalizing and tempering temperature holding time is calculated according to the hot node diameter at the thickest position of the whole ring casting, and the insulation time is 3h to 5h for every 100mm.

[0033] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0034] like Figure 1-Figure 8 As shown, the present invention provides a method for manufacturing a large-scale ring-type steel casting petal ring, comprising the following steps:

[0035] S1: Design a casting model 2, the casting model 2 includes at least two petal ring bodies 3, each of the petal ring bodies 3 is provided with a shrinkage compensation system 4, the shrinkage compensation system 4 includes a riser, inner and outer circular surfaces of the petal ring body 3, end surface processing amount and casting correction amount; it should be noted here that a plurality of petal ring bodies 3 can form a rotating wheel, if there are two petal ring bodies 3, the corresponding central angle of each petal ring body 3 is 180°, if there are three petal ring bodies 3, the corresponding central angle of each petal ring body 3 is 120°. The cavity of the riser is a cavity for storing liquid metal, which supplies metal when the casting is formed, and has the function of preventing shrinkage cavities, shrinkage, exhaust and slag collection. The number, size and spacing of the risers are set according to actual conditions.

[0036] S2: Two adjacent petal ring bodies 3 are connected by connecting ribs 5, which are arranged along the axial direction of the petal ring body 3, and the thickness of the connecting ribs 5 is 50% to 70% of the wall thickness at the corresponding position of the petal ring body 3; the connecting ribs 5 are arranged on the side of the petal ring 1, extending from the top of the side of the petal ring 1 to the bottom, and the outer surface of the connecting ribs 5 is coplanar with the outer surface of the petal ring body 3, and the thickness of the connecting ribs 5 is 50% to 70% of the wall thickness at the corresponding position of the petal ring body 3, so that the position of the connecting ribs 5 can be better found when the connecting ribs 5 are cut later, and the amount of molten steel used can also be reduced. The setting of the connecting ribs 5 can not only meet the cutting amount during the splitting and the end surface machining allowance of the petal ring 1 after the subsequent cutting is completed, but also constrain multiple petal rings 1 into a whole during the subsequent casting and processing process, which increases the rigidity, can greatly reduce the stress deformation of the product during the manufacturing process, and at the same time, the heat treatment furnace loading is also simpler and faster.

[0037] S3: Setting up a casting pouring system 6, wherein the casting pouring system 6 includes a straight runner, a ring runner, an inner runner, a distribution position, a quantity and a runner cross-sectional size;

[0038] S4: a sand mold cavity is made according to the shape and size of the casting model 2 and the casting pouring system 6, and qualified molten steel is poured in and cooled along with the molding sand, and after the pit is cooled to the temperature, the pit is boxed out to obtain the integral casting;

[0040] S6: The whole ring casting is put into the furnace for heat treatment, wherein the heat treatment is normalizing and tempering; when the whole ring casting is put into the furnace, the axis of the whole ring casting is vertical, and the normalizing treatment refines the crystal grains of the whole ring casting, improves the strength of the whole ring casting, and can significantly improve the toughness (AKV value), and reduce the cracking tendency of the whole ring casting. The tempering treatment reduces the internal stress in the whole ring casting and improves the ductility of the whole ring casting.

[0041] S7: The whole ring casting that has passed the S6 heat treatment is cut along the center line of the connecting rib 5 to split the whole ring casting into petal rings 1, and the connecting rib 5 is removed. The cutting of the connecting rib 5 can be done by flame cutting or mechanical processing, and then the redundant connecting rib 5 is removed by grinding.

[0042] Further, in step S2, the width of the connecting rib 5 is 50 mm to 100 mm. With this arrangement, the center line of the connecting rib 5 can be better found during cutting, which facilitates cutting.

[0043] Further, in step S6, the normalizing is to heat the whole ring casting to 100°C to 250°C above the Ac3 point of the material, keep it warm and then cool it quickly; the tempering is to heat the whole ring casting to 20°C to 30°C above the Ac1 point of the material, keep it warm and then cool it slowly; the normalizing and tempering temperature holding time is calculated according to the hot node diameter at the thickest position of the whole ring casting, and the insulation time is 3h to 5h for every 100mm.

[0044] Since the processing amount and casting correction amount of the inner and outer circular surfaces and the end surfaces are set in the design process of the casting model 2, the surface of the petal ring 1 needs to be processed after the casting is completed. Furthermore, after step S7, the following steps are also included: S8: the inner and outer circular surfaces and the upper and lower end surfaces of the petal ring 1 described in S7 are machined, and the corresponding quality inspection and quality repair are performed; S9: the petal ring 1 that has been processed qualifiedly in S8 is welded with anti-deformation tie rods on the inner surface of the petal ring 1. Welding anti-deformation tie rods in the petal ring 1 can prevent the petal ring 1 that has been processed qualifiedly from being deformed during transportation.

[0045] As an embodiment, further, the anti-deformation reinforcement includes at least two first transverse ribs 7 arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the petal ring 1, and the number of the first transverse ribs 7 is determined according to the height of the petal ring 1, and a first transverse rib 7 is arranged at every 800mm to 1000mm height. The first transverse rib 7 connects the two radial ends of the inner surface of the petal ring 1, and a second transverse rib 8 is arranged between the first transverse rib 7 and the inner surface of the petal ring 1. The second transverse rib 8 is perpendicular to the first transverse rib 7, one end of the second transverse rib 8 is connected to the first transverse rib 7, and the other end is connected to the inner surface of the petal ring 1. Two adjacent first transverse ribs 7 are connected by longitudinal ribs 9, and the number of longitudinal ribs 9 can be multiple to improve the stability of the anti-deformation reinforcement.

[0046] Furthermore, the first transverse reinforcement 7, the second transverse reinforcement 8 and the longitudinal reinforcement 9 are rails or channel steels made of low carbon equivalent materials. To ensure the rigidity of the first transverse reinforcement 7, the second transverse reinforcement 8 and the longitudinal reinforcement 9, the effective cross-sectional area of ​​the first transverse reinforcement 7, the second transverse reinforcement 8 and the longitudinal reinforcement 9 is 3000-5000mm. 2 .
