Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of manufacturing parts for electrified railway contact network and relates to a forging die and manufacturing process method of a double-ear wedge-shaped wire clamp. Technical Background

[0002] The double-ear wedge-shaped wire clamp is a kind of wire clamp used to fix the flexible wire ends such as load-bearing cables or contact wires in the field of electrified railway contact network and rail transportation. In the known technology, the existing double-ear wedge-shaped wire clamp mainly adopts the casting process. Due to the loose metallographic structure inside the casting, it is easy to produce defects such as pores and cracks. For the double-ear wedge-shaped wire clamp used for anchoring the load-bearing wire terminal, its internal defects will be fatal, and the flaw detection requirements are very high. Therefore, the existing double-ear wedge-shaped wire clamp products manufactured by casting technology have many flaw detection defects and low pass rate. Especially in cold areas, cast steel products are prone to low-temperature brittleness and cold cracking. With the continuous increase in the operating speed of electrified railways, as an important anchoring component on electrified railways, cast double-ear wedge-shaped wire clamps have become a hidden safety hazard for anchoring the load-bearing wire terminal of electrified railways. In addition, the casting of double-ear wedge-shaped wire clamps External defects such as appearance deformation will also affect product quality. The product's internal quality and external structure have certain defects, which makes it difficult for the double-ear wedge-shaped wire clamp to meet performance and use requirements. The double-ear wedge-shaped wire clamp parts casting process method is processed, and customized molds and supporting die-casting equipment are required, resulting in high manufacturing costs. For example, Chinese patent application publication number CN104385941A discloses a technical solution of "die-forged load-bearing cable double-ear wedge-shaped wire clamp", which is characterized by being made of symmetrically arranged two ears and a wedge cavity at the bottom, and double-ear reinforcement ribs are made on the outside of the two ears, the connection between the two ears and the wedge cavity is made into a circular arc transition, and connecting reinforcement ribs are made on the outside of the connection between the two ears and the wedge cavity, and wedge cavity reinforcement ribs are made at the bottom of the wedge cavity. However, its specific forging process preparation method lacks specific forging technical measures. It can be inferred that if the double-ear wedge-shaped wire clamp forging molding process method is applied to this solution, it will be limited. Therefore, limited by the existing double-ear wedge-shaped wire clamp manufacturing process method, there is still room for further improvement and research and development in the actual application of electrified railway contact network.

[0003] In view of this, in order to adapt to the development and technological progress of electrified railway contact network, it is necessary to further improve and develop a new forming mold and manufacturing method of double-ear wedge-shaped wire clamp. Summary of the invention

[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, solve the problem that the metallographic structure of the existing double-ear wedge-shaped wire clamp products for the contact network of electrified railways is loose, and the manufacturing method still has room for improvement and innovation. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a forging mold and manufacturing process method of a new type of contact network double-ear wedge-shaped wire clamp that can make the overall metallographic structure of the double-ear wedge-shaped wire clamp dense, and only the double-ear hole processing is performed after the product is manufactured and formed, and the processing time is short, which can not only improve the production and processing efficiency and the product qualification rate, but also enhance the product structural performance. The internal and external structures of the product are novel and practical, and the manufacturing process method is reasonable and feasible.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve the above problems is:

[0007] The double-wedge ear wire clamp forging die mentioned above comprises a primary forging die, a final forging die, and a final forging die, and each corner of the inner cavity of each component in the forging die is an arc chamfer.

[0008] The double wedge ear wire clamp forging die is characterized in that, based on the double wedge ear wire clamp forging die, the double wedge ear wire clamp forging manufacturing method is as follows:

[0009] 1) The first process is to forge the round bar material into round bar segments;

[0010] 2) The second process is to heat treat the round bar segments according to the set initial forging temperature and final forging temperature;

[0011] 3) The third process is to carry out the first primary forging, which is to segment the round bar into a tapered round tube-shaped initial product with a larger top and a smaller bottom;

[0012] 4) The fourth process is the second final forging, which flattens the conical cylindrical primary product material formed by the first primary forging into a flattened semi-finished product material of a set thickness;

[0013] 5) The fifth process is to transport the flattened semi-finished product to the shaping die for shaping and forging into a shaped product;

[0014] 6) The sixth process uses a CNC drilling machine to drill holes in both ears of the shaped product to make a double wedge ear wire clamp shaped product;

[0015] 7) The seventh process is to inspect the double wedge ear wire clamp formed product manufactured in the sixth process according to national product standards and enterprise product standards. Those that pass the inspection become the double wedge ear wire clamp products of this application.

[0016] The forging manufacturing method of the double wedge ear wire clamp further includes an eighth process, namely:

[0017] 8) The eighth process is to galvanize or spray the anti-corrosion agent layer on the manufactured double wedge ear wire clamp products according to actual needs and design requirements.

[0018] The above-mentioned method of forging a double-wedge ear wire clamp product using a forging forming die, the first primary forging setting temperature in the third process is 1150±50℃, and the second final forming forging setting temperature in the fourth process is 850±50℃.

[0019] The above-mentioned double wedge ear wire clamp forging manufacturing method, the process equipment and instruments used in the manufacturing method, which include a programmable industrial computer, a bar blanking table, an automatic feeder, a material heater, a mechanical gripper, a forging press, a CNC drilling machine, a conveyor track, a product assembly inspection table, and a product container 25, wherein the mechanical gripper includes a first mechanical gripper to a fifth mechanical gripper, a total of 5 units, and the forging press includes a first forging press to a third forging press, a total of 3 units, and the programmable industrial computer is respectively connected by electrical wires and controls the bar blanking table, the automatic feeder, the material heater, the first mechanical gripper to the third mechanical gripper. Five mechanical grippers, the first to third forging presses, a CNC drilling machine, and a conveying track.

The specific manufacturing process is as follows: the initial forging left die and the initial forging right die are fixed in a fixed lower base to prevent the initial forging left die and the initial forging right die from being separated when the upper push die is stressed. After forging and forming, the automatic push rod pushes the initial forging left die and the initial forging right die upward, the initial forging left die and the initial forging right die are separated, and the forged part is taken out. Specifically: according to the design requirements, the programmable industrial computer is controlled and set, and the initial forging temperature and final forging temperature of the material are set. After the raw materials are dropped from the bar blanking table, they are connected to the automatic feeder and then to the material heater to heat the materials to the initial forging temperature of 1150±50℃ for heat treatment. Then, they are transported to the first forging press by the first mechanical gripper for stretching and initial forging of the raw materials into a tapered circular tube-shaped initial product material with a larger upper part and a smaller lower part. Then, they are transported to the second forging press by the second mechanical gripper for the second final forging to flatten the tapered circular tube-shaped initial product material to a set thickness of the flattened semi-finished product. Then, they are transported to the shaping die of the third forging press by the third mechanical gripper for shaping and forging into a shaped product. The fourth mechanical gripper transports the shaped product to the CNC drilling machine precision machine to perform double-ear drilling to manufacture a double-wedge ear wire clamp product. The fifth mechanical gripper transports the shaped product to the conveying track and the product assembly inspection table. After the qualified products are inspected according to national standards and enterprise standards, they are transported to the qualified product container by the conveying track.

[0021] Since the design of the present invention adopts the above technical solution, it effectively solves the problem that the metallographic structure of the existing double-ear wedge-shaped wire clamp products of the electrified railway contact network is loose, and the manufacturing method still has room for improvement and innovation. The actual test results also show that it has a new and practical mold structure, a reasonable and feasible manufacturing method, and only double-ear hole processing is performed after the product is manufactured and formed, and the processing time is short.
