Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of steel wire rod production, and particularly relates to a cooling device for a high-speed drawing die of a steel wire rod. BACKGROUND

[0002] The cooling device for the high-speed drawing die of the steel wire rod is a core equipment in metal wire processing, and is mainly used for forcibly cooling the die in the high-speed drawing process of the steel wire. The device continuously leads out the heat generated by the friction between the die and the steel wire through circulating cooling medium, so that the temperature of the die is stably ensured in a reasonable range, thereby ensuring the continuity of the drawing process, the size precision and the surface quality of the steel wire; in the modern production line, the performance directly affects the mechanical properties of the steel wire and the service life of the die.

[0003] The current traditional cooling device faces two technical bottlenecks: insufficient cooling efficiency and poor sealing reliability. During high-speed drawing, the severe friction between the steel wire and the die can make the local temperature of the die instantaneously exceed 200 degrees Celsius, and the existing system mainly depends on a single cooling mode. If oil cooling is adopted, although leakage can be avoided, the low thermal conductivity coefficient leads to slow heat dissipation, and the long-term thermal fatigue of the die causes micro cracks, and the service life is sharply reduced from the normal 90 days to 30 days. If water cooling is adopted, although the heat exchange efficiency is high, the sealing defects are prone to leakage, and the cooling water seeping into the working area of the die can cause the oxidation and decarburization of the surface of the steel wire, resulting in the leakage of the subsequent galvanizing process and causing significant economic losses. More seriously, the difference in thermal expansion between the die and the cooling cavity material makes the radial deformation difference between the two in the working state exceed 0.05 mm, and the traditional flange sealing cannot dynamically compensate, and the cooling oil leaks and mixes with the cooling water to form an emulsion, which not only pollutes the system, but also leaves an oil film on the surface of the steel wire, resulting in lubrication failure. These problems are particularly prominent when the drawing speed exceeds 15 m / s, forcing enterprises to reduce the speed of the production line and sacrifice productivity. Although the industry has tried to increase auxiliary cooling or improve the sealing, the complex structure is difficult to maintain, or the response lag cannot match the transient thermal shock, and the technical difficulties of high temperature and leakage have not been overcome.

[0024] The technical solution of the present invention will now be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0027] The present invention will be further explained below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0028] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the cooling device for a high-speed wire rod drawing die provided in this embodiment includes a frame 1. Limiting components 2 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the table surface of the frame 1. The limiting components 2 are used for wire straightening and tension control. A cooling tank 3 is fixedly arranged in the middle of the frame 1. A cooling component 4 is horizontally arranged inside the cooling tank 3. The central axis of the cooling component 4 is parallel to the horizontal plane.

[0029] like Figures 1-12 As shown, in this embodiment, the cooling assembly 4 includes a coaxially fitted oil-cooled sealing cavity 402 and a drawing die 411. The inner wall of the oil-cooled sealing cavity 402 is provided with a first-direction spiral inner cooling blade 404, and the outer wall of the oil-cooled sealing cavity 402 is provided with a second-direction spiral outer cooling blade 405, the second direction of rotation being opposite to the first direction of rotation. The spiral lead angle of the inner cooling blade 404 is 30°±2°, and the spiral lead angle of the outer cooling blade 405 is 45°±2°. The inner cooling blade 404 extends along the entire length of the inner wall of the oil-cooled sealing cavity 402, and the outer cooling blade 405 covers more than 80% of the outer circumferential surface of the oil-cooled sealing cavity 402. This cooling device achieves efficient synergistic heat exchange between oil and water media through the coordinated arrangement of the first-direction spiral inner cooling blade 404 on the inner wall of the oil-cooled sealing cavity 402 and the opposite-direction spiral outer cooling blade 405 on the outer wall. The counter-rotating design of the inner and outer blades creates a strong shear flow field within the cavity, significantly enhancing the convective heat transfer coefficient between the cooling oil and the mold 411 wall, and between the cooling water and the outer wall of the sealed cavity. The cooling oil forms a high-speed turbulent flow under the forced guidance of the spiral inner cooling blades 404, directly scouring the high-temperature area of ​​the mold 411, while the cooling water flows in the opposite direction along the outer spiral channel. This dual-circulation system completely eliminates the heat accumulation phenomenon in the mold 411, ensuring that the working temperature of the mold 411 is stably controlled within a safe range, and greatly extending the service life of the mold 411.

[0030] like Figures 7-12As shown, in the embodiment, the oil-cooled sealing cavity 402 is provided with sealing flanges 403 at both ends, a tapered ring groove 408 is formed in the sealing flanges 403, a tapered sealing ring 409 is fitted and installed in the tapered ring groove 408, the tapered bottom surface of the tapered sealing ring 409 abuts against a disc spring 410, the disc spring 410 is sleeved on the outer wall of a drawing die 411 and located between the tapered sealing ring 409 and the stepped surface of the die 411; the inner tapered surface of the tapered sealing ring 409 and the outer wall of the drawing die 411 form a radial gap of 0.05-0.08mm in the normal temperature assembly state, the gap is filled with high-temperature sealing grease and sealed by the pre-tightening force of the disc spring 410, the pre-compression amount of the disc spring 410 is 15%-18% of the free height, and the pre-compression amount is set to ensure that the disc spring 410 can provide stable and sufficient compensation force in the working temperature range, so as to avoid sealing failure caused by stress relaxation. The bottom of the oil-cooled sealing cavity 402 is fixed to the bottom surface of the cooling tank 3 through a base 401, and a ceramic heat insulation gasket is arranged between the base 401 and the bottom surface of the cooling tank 3; the ceramic heat insulation gasket effectively blocks the heat transfer from the oil-cooled sealing cavity 402 to the cooling tank 3, and maintains the stable cooling water temperature of the oil-cooled sealing cavity 402. The sealing flanges 403 at both ends are respectively provided with an oil inlet 406 and an oil outlet 407, the oil inlet 406 of the first end sealing flange 403 is connected with an external oil supply pipe, the oil outlet 407 of the second end sealing flange 403 is connected with an external oil return pipe, and the oil flow direction is matched with the rotation direction of the inner cooling blade 404. The tapered sealing ring 409 is made of a flexible graphite matrix composite with 30-40vol% stainless steel wire mesh reinforcement, and the surface of the tapered sealing ring 409 is coated with a 0.03-0.05mm thick molybdenum disulfide coating. The flexible graphite matrix gives the sealing ring elastic deformation capability, and the stainless steel wire mesh reinforcement increases the compression strength, so that the tapered sealing ring 409 maintains structural integrity under thermal expansion. The cooling device creatively solves the sealing failure problem caused by thermal expansion difference through the dynamic compensation structure of the tapered sealing ring 409 and the disc spring 410. The normal temperature assembly gap ensures quick replacement of the die 411, the thermal expansion of the die 411 automatically eliminates the gap to form a metal seal during high-temperature work, the disc spring 410 continuously provides axial compression force, so that the sealing system maintains zero leakage under severe temperature change conditions, and prevents the oxidation defects on the surface of the steel wire caused by the pollution of the cooling oil to the cooling water.

[0031] As Figure 1 , Figure 8 , Figure 9As shown, in this embodiment, the cooling tank 3 has an inlet 31 and an outlet 32 ​​on its sidewall. Reversing assemblies 5 are respectively installed on both sides of the oil-cooled sealing cavity 402 within the cooling tank 3. The reversing assemblies 5 and the oil-cooled sealing cavity 402 are coaxially distributed. The reversing assemblies 5 are used to guide the steel wire into or out of the cooling tank 3. The reversing assembly 5 includes a fixing frame 51 vertically fixed to the bottom of the cooling tank 3. A rotatable reversing wheel 52 is installed on the top of the fixing frame 51. The reversing wheel 52 is immersed in the cooling water and is used to reverse the steel wire from a horizontal position above the cooling tank 3 to a horizontal position at the bottom of the cooling tank 3. The lowest point of the reversing wheel 52 is at least 50mm below the cooling water surface. A correction frame 53 is coaxially hinged to the fixing frame 51 and the reversing wheel 52. A correction wheel 54 is installed at the end of the correction frame 53. The distance between the rims of the correction wheel 54 and the reversing wheel 52 is less than the diameter of the steel wire, forming a V-shaped guide channel. The cooling device, through the combined design of a reversing wheel 52 with an immersion depth of up to 50 mm and a V-shaped correction channel, constructs a stable underwater passage path for the steel wire. The reversing wheel 52 changes the steel wire from horizontal entry into the water to horizontal exit, ensuring it is fully submerged in cooling water throughout the process. The correction wheel 54 automatically corrects the position of the steel wire, ensuring uniform cooling of the steel wire surface and eliminating fluctuations in mechanical properties caused by localized overheating.

[0032] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the limiting component 2 includes a lifting frame 21 fixed on the platform 1. A liftable mounting block 22 is mounted on the lifting frame 21. A screw is vertically connected to the top of the mounting block 22, and a handwheel 25 is mounted on the top of the screw. Two vertically arranged straightening rollers 23 are mounted on the side of the mounting block 22. The shaft ends of the straightening rollers 23 are fixedly connected to meshing gears 24, and pulleys 26 are coaxially mounted on the outer ends of the gears 24. The pulleys 26 of the two sets of limiting components 2 are connected to the same motor 28 via a transmission belt 27 for synchronous drive. The two straightening rollers 23 of the same limiting component 2 rotate in opposite directions. Using a single motor 28 to synchronously drive the two straightening rollers 23 via the transmission belt 27 ensures that the traction force on the steel wire is strictly symmetrical when entering and leaving the cooling system, avoiding uneven tension or wire slippage caused by speed differences on both sides. This cooling device, through the symmetrical layout of the bidirectional straightening rollers 23 in the limiting component 2 and the synchronous drive mechanism, precisely controls the straightness and tension of the steel wire before it enters the cooling system. The upper and lower straightening rollers 23 rotate in opposite directions to create a powerful straightening field. Combined with the synchronous transmission system of the pulleys 26, this effectively suppresses the lateral vibration of the steel wire during high-speed operation, providing a stable foundation for the cooling process. like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 7As shown, in this embodiment, the cooling tank 3 is fixed in the middle of the frame 1 and located between the two limiting components 2. The water inlet 31 is located on the bottom side wall of the cooling tank 3 and faces the starting end of the external cooling blades 405. The water outlet 32 ​​is located on the top side wall of the cooling tank 3 and faces the ending end of the external cooling blades 405. The cooling water flow direction matches the rotation direction of the spiral blades on the outer wall of the oil-cooled sealing cavity 402. The bottom water inlet and top water outlet layout conforms to the convection principle of hot water rising naturally, which helps to accelerate the cooling water circulation speed. This cooling device maximizes the heat exchange efficiency through the spatial matching design of the cooling water inlet and outlet with the rotation direction of the spiral blades. The water inlet 31 is precisely aligned with the starting end of the external cooling blades 405 to inject cold water, and the water outlet 32 ​​leads out hot water from the ending end of the blades. The water flow rotation direction is completely consistent with the guiding direction of the external cooling blades 405, forming a highly efficient convection heat exchange system and significantly reducing the cooling water consumption.

[0033] The present invention also provides the working principle of a cooling device for a high-speed wire rod drawing die: The wire rod first passes through the limiting assembly 2 on the frame 1. The operator can initially straighten and guide the wire rod by turning the handwheel 25 to change the position of the straightening roller 23 on the mounting block 22. Then the wire rod enters the cooling tank 3 filled with cooling water and passes through the drawing die 411 located in the tank. The die 411 is precisely installed in the oil-cooled sealing cavity 402. A reliable seal is achieved by the sealing flange 403 and the conical sealing ring 409 in conjunction with the preload provided by the disc spring 410. During room temperature assembly, a small gap is reserved between the conical sealing ring 409 and the outer wall of the die 411, and the disc spring 410 provides the initial preload. When the die 411 is drawn at high speed and heated, its radial expansion increases significantly. The outer wall of the die 411 strongly compresses the inner conical surface of the conical sealing ring 409, forcing the flexible composite material sealing ring to expand radially, so that its outer conical surface fits tightly with the conical ring groove 408 of the oil-cooled sealing cavity 402. Meanwhile, the axial preload of the disc spring 410 is converted into a continuously increasing radial sealing pressure through the conical structure. This design ensures that thermal expansion not only does not weaken the seal but also enhances the sealing contact pressure. During cooling contraction, the disc spring 410 can also push the sealing ring to reset and compensate for the gap. Ultimately, under severe temperature change conditions, dynamic zero-leakage sealing of the cooling oil chamber is achieved. Circulating cooling oil is pumped into the oil-cooled sealed cavity 402 through the oil inlet 406. Under the forced drive of the 30° spiral channel constructed by the inner cooling blades 404, it forms a high-speed turbulent flow, directly scouring the high-temperature surface of the mold 411 and efficiently absorbing its heat. At the same time, cooling water is injected from the bottom inlet 31 of the cooling tank 3 and flows in the opposite direction along the 45° reverse spiral channel designed by the outer cooling blades 405. This dual-circulation structure has two advantages: first, the countercurrent flow of the inner and outer media forms a strong countercurrent heat exchange, with the high-temperature oil outlet facing the cold water inlet area, maximizing the temperature gradient and improving heat exchange efficiency; second, the difference in blade rotation direction causes eddy interference, and the rotating oil flow generated by the inner cooling blades 404 and the rotating water flow guided by the outer cooling blades 405 generate shear disturbances on the cavity wall, significantly enhancing the thermal boundary layer disruption. Ultimately, triple heat transfer is achieved: the oil flow directly cools the core of the mold 411, the water flow quickly removes the heat from the outer wall of the oil-cooled sealing cavity 402, and the metal of the oil-cooled sealing cavity 402 itself becomes a highly efficient heat conduction medium, so that the heat in the working area of ​​the mold 411 is absorbed by the oil and water dual media in relay, completely eliminating the phenomenon of local heat accumulation; after the mold 411 is cooled, the wire rod finally passes through the reversing assembly 5, and the reversing wheel 52 supported by the fixed frame 51 changes its direction of travel, and the correction wheel 54 on the correction frame 53 can be used for fine angle adjustment to ensure smooth and straight material output.

[0034] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and not to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or substitutions 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 invention.
