Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of preparation equipment technology, and in particular to high-temperature corrosion-resistant nickel-based alloy rods and their preparation process. Background Technology
[0002] High-temperature corrosion-resistant nickel-based alloy bars are widely used in high-end equipment manufacturing fields such as aerospace, petrochemical, and nuclear industries due to their excellent high-temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, and mechanical strength.
[0003] As related industries continue to raise their requirements for equipment performance, higher standards are being set for the precision, performance stability, and production efficiency of nickel-based alloy rod preparation. However, existing nickel-based alloy rod preparation equipment still has shortcomings in practical applications: the transfer mechanism mostly adopts a continuous rotation design, resulting in insufficient cooling time for the alloy rod during transfer, making it prone to thermal deformation; the rotational precision is also poor, leading to deviations in the rod forming dimensions; the linkage between various processes is poor; the degree of automation is low; and frequent manual intervention and control are required, which not only increases labor costs but also makes it difficult to ensure the consistency of product quality. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing high-temperature corrosion-resistant nickel-based alloy rods and their preparation process.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a high-temperature corrosion-resistant nickel-based alloy bar and its preparation process, including a machine tool. A support column is installed on one side of the machine tool, and a melting furnace is mounted on the support column for melting the alloy. A ladder is installed on the support column for workers to inspect the melting furnace. A high-frequency heater is mounted on the melting furnace for heating the alloy. A furnace head for discharging material is provided at the bottom of the melting furnace, and a heating wire for preheating the furnace head is provided on the furnace head. A motor is mounted at the bottom of the machine tool for driving a drive assembly. The drive assembly is used to carry the alloy bar processed by the furnace head and to transfer the alloy bar. A mounting column is installed on the other side of the machine tool, and an oiling assembly for adding lubricating oil to the shaft of the drive assembly and a grinding assembly for grinding the transferred alloy bar are mounted on the mounting column. A lifting assembly is provided on the machine tool for detaching the transferred alloy bar from the drive assembly. A control panel for controlling the entire device is also provided on the support column.
[0006] Preferably, the drive assembly includes a rotating rod, the output shaft of the motor is fixedly connected to the rotating rod via a coupling, a limiting block is sleeved on the rotating rod, a disc is fixedly connected to the rotating rod, an eccentric shaft is mounted on the disc, a connecting plate is fixedly connected to the end of the eccentric shaft away from the disc, a rotating shaft is rotatably sleeved on the connecting plate, a rotating plate is sleeved on the rotating shaft, a slider is slidably connected to the rotating plate, connecting rods are fixedly connected to both sides of the connecting plate, one connecting rod slides through the limiting rod and is fixedly connected to the slider, and a positioning block is mounted on the other connecting rod, the limiting block has a sliding groove and is slidably connected to the positioning block.
[0007] Preferably, a turntable is fixedly connected to the end of the rotating shaft away from the connecting plate. A plurality of mold holes are formed on the outer surface of the turntable, and a plurality of limiting grooves are formed on the outer circumferential surface of the turntable. A bearing plate is slidably connected in the mold holes.
[0008] Preferably, the outer surface of the rotating rod is fixedly connected to an extrusion piece for driving the ejection assembly to eject the alloy rod from the die hole, and the outer surface of one end of the rotating shaft that passes through the turntable is fixedly connected to a protrusion for driving the lubrication assembly to add lubricating oil.
[0009] Preferably, the extrusion member includes a mounting plate and a protrusion, the mounting plate being mounted on the rotating rod, and the protrusion being mounted on the mounting plate.
[0010] The drive motor rotates, which in turn drives the rotating rod to rotate. The rotating rod then drives the eccentric shaft on the disc to rotate, which in turn drives the connecting disc to move eccentrically. This eccentric movement of the connecting disc causes two connecting rods to move. One connecting rod drives a slider to slide on the rotating plate, allowing the slider to insert into the groove of the turntable. Simultaneously, the slider's movement also causes the rotating plate to rotate on the outer surface of the rotating shaft. As the slider inserts into the groove, the rotation of the rotating plate on the outer surface of the rotating shaft causes the turntable to rotate. As the connecting disc continues its eccentric movement, one connecting rod drives the slider to disengage from the groove of the turntable. At this point, the other connecting rod drives a positioning block to slide into the groove of the limiting block. This causes the turntable to rotate a certain angle as the slider drives it, and then the positioning block limits the turntable's continued rotation. This ensures that the slider can only rotate a certain angle each time it drives the turntable, achieving the effect of intermittent rotation of the turntable. The mold hole rotates sequentially to the bottom of the furnace head as the turntable rotates intermittently, receiving the molten alloy bars. The intermittent rotation of the turntable also helps cool the alloy bars.
[0011] Preferably, the refueling assembly includes an oil tank mounted on a mounting column, a piston rod slidably connected to the inner wall of the oil tank, a spring sleeved at one end of the piston rod located outside the oil tank with its two ends respectively connected to the piston rod and the oil tank, an oil filling port for adding lubricating oil provided on the outer surface of the oil tank, a delivery pipe connected to the top of the oil tank, and a solenoid valve for controlling the addition and flow rate provided on the delivery pipe.
[0012] Preferably, a crossbar slides through the mounting column, and one end of the crossbar and the piston rod are connected to a vertical plate. A conical block, pressed by a protruding rod, is connected to the crossbar. When the conical block is pressed by the protruding rod driven by the rotating shaft, the crossbar slides on the mounting column due to the pressure of the protruding rod. The sliding of the crossbar causes the piston rod connected to the vertical plate to slide, at which point the spring is stretched. When the protruding rod disengages from the conical block, the spring's rebound force causes the piston rod to slide along the inner wall of the oil tank, squeezing the lubricating oil in the oil tank and delivering it to the vicinity of the rotating shaft through the delivery pipe for lubrication. This process is repeated so that the protruding rod presses against the conical block, allowing for intermittent addition of lubricating oil.
[0013] Preferably, the grinding assembly is mounted on the mounting post, and the grinding assembly includes a screw, the outer surface of which is fixedly connected to a connector by means of a nut.
[0014] Preferably, the connector includes an assembly plate and a sleeve. The assembly plate is mounted on the screw, and the sleeve is mounted on the assembly plate. A sliding rod is slidably connected to the inner wall of the sleeve. Limiting holes are provided on both the sleeve and the sliding rod. A limiting pin is provided in the limiting hole to control the sliding distance of the sliding rod in the sleeve. A grinding machine for grinding alloy rods is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the sliding rod. When the turntable rotates intermittently, it moves the alloy rod in the mold hole to the grinding machine for grinding, thus saving additional grinding time.
[0015] Preferably, the lifting assembly includes a mounting frame installed on the machine tool. One end of the mounting frame is connected to a bracket, and a top rod is rotatably connected to the bracket via a rotating rod. A guide rod slides through the inner wall of the mounting frame. A protrusion is fixedly connected to the lower end of the guide rod, and a connecting plate is fixedly connected to the upper end of the guide rod. The connecting plate is fixedly connected to the other end of the top rod. When the mounting plate rotates with the rotating rod to the vicinity of the protrusion, the protrusion on the mounting plate presses against the protrusion. The protrusion is pressed, causing the guide rod to slide on the inner wall of the mounting frame. The movement of the guide rod causes the connecting plate to move, and the connecting plate causes one end of the top rod to move. The top rod is limited by the rotating rod, so the top rod rotates around the outer surface of the rotating rod. The other end of the top rod lifts the bearing plate, causing the alloy rod on the bearing plate to slide within the mold hole. At this time, the alloy rod is driven by the bearing plate to detach from the mold hole, and the ejected alloy mold falls into the collection frame and is collected.
[0016] Preferably, the high-temperature corrosion-resistant nickel-based alloy rod is prepared using any one of the high-temperature corrosion-resistant nickel-based alloy rod preparation processes described above, specifically with Ni: 50-55%, Cr: 17-21%, Mo: 2.8-3.3%, Nb: 4.75-5.5%, Al: 0.2-0.8%, Ti: 0.65-1.15%, C: ≤0.08%, and Fe: balance.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of the present invention are as follows: 1. In this invention, by assembling a high-frequency heater around the outer wall of the smelting furnace, the principle of electromagnetic induction heating is used to achieve uniform heat transfer, ensuring that the nickel-based alloy raw materials are fully melted, effectively avoiding component segregation, and significantly improving the high-temperature corrosion resistance and component uniformity of the alloy bars. At the same time, the heating wires wrapped around the outer periphery of the furnace head can preheat the furnace head, preventing the molten alloy from cooling and solidifying at the discharge port, ensuring smooth discharge and ensuring production continuity.
[0018] 2. In this invention, the drive component adopts a collaborative design of eccentric shaft, slider and positioning block, which can drive the turntable to achieve precise interval rotation, so that the mold hole on the turntable can orderly receive the molten alloy flowing out of the furnace head, and provide sufficient natural cooling time for the alloy bar during the interval rotation, without the need for additional cooling equipment, which reduces the risk of thermal deformation of the bar, saves energy consumption, and ensures the dimensional accuracy of the bar forming.
[0019] 3. In this invention, the lubrication component achieves intermittent automatic addition of lubricating oil through the linkage between the convex rod on the rotating shaft and the conical block, without the need for manual intervention. Moreover, the timing of lubricating oil addition is precisely matched with the rotation rhythm of the transmission components, which not only ensures the lubrication effect of key transmission parts, reduces component wear, and extends the service life of equipment, but also avoids excessive waste of lubricating oil and reduces production and maintenance costs.
[0020] 4. In this invention, the grinding component is integrated on the mounting column and seamlessly connected with the transfer process. When the alloy bar is transferred to the ground machine by the turntable, it can be directly ground to remove impurities such as burrs and oxide scale. There is no need to transfer it to a special grinding equipment separately, which effectively shortens the production cycle and reduces the risk of scratches on the surface of the bar during the transfer process. At the same time, the height of the grinding machine and the grinding interval can be flexibly adjusted by adjusting the nut and the limit pin to adapt to the grinding needs of alloy bars of different specifications, which is highly versatile.
[0021] 5. In this invention, the lifting component and the driving component are linked by the protrusion on the mounting plate. When the polished alloy rod is transferred to the designated position, it can automatically complete the lifting, demolding and collection. No manual operation is required throughout the process, which reduces the error caused by manual intervention and further improves the degree of production automation. In addition, the arc-shaped contact head design at the end of the lifting rod can avoid damage to the bearing plate and the alloy rod, ensuring the integrity of the product appearance.

A turntable 911 is welded to the end of the rotating shaft 96 away from the connecting plate 95. The turntable 911 is made of heat-resistant alloy steel and can withstand the high temperature of the alloy rod. Several mold holes 913 are evenly distributed along the edge of the turntable 911. The inner wall of the mold holes 913 is finely polished to reduce the resistance when the alloy rod is demolded. A bearing plate 914 is slidably connected in each mold hole 913. The bearing plate 914 is made of high-temperature resistant graphite material, which has good heat resistance and anti-sticking properties to prevent adhesion to the molten alloy.

One end of the spring 75 is welded to the shoulder of the piston rod 73, and the other end is welded to the outer wall of the oil tank 71. A through hole is provided on the mounting column 6, and a linear bearing is installed in the through hole.

The other end of the push rod 105 extends to the bottom of the mold hole 913 of the turntable 911, corresponding to the position of the support plate 914. This end of the push rod 105 is provided with an arc-shaped contact head to increase the contact area with the support plate 914 and avoid damage to the support plate 914. A collection frame is placed on the machine tool 1 below the lifting assembly 10. The collection frame is made of stainless steel to facilitate the collection of alloy bars that have detached from the mold hole 913 and to facilitate subsequent cleaning.
[0029] All key transmission components of the device are equipped with protective covers made of steel plates, which are bolted to their respective positions to prevent foreign objects from entering the transmission mechanism and to avoid accidental contact and injury to personnel. The side of the smelting furnace 3 is equipped with an observation window made of high-temperature resistant quartz glass, allowing personnel to monitor the smelting status of the alloy inside the furnace in real time and adjust heating parameters accordingly.
[0030] Working Principle: First, the operator adds nickel-based alloy raw material through the feed inlet at the top of the melting furnace 3, then seals the furnace tightly. Next, the operator starts the device via the control panel 12, setting parameters such as the heating temperature of the high-frequency heater 4, the speed of the motor 8, the lubrication interval of the lubrication assembly 7, and the grinding time of the grinder 117. After the high-frequency heater 4 starts, it induces eddy currents in the nickel-based alloy raw material within the melting furnace 3 through electromagnetic induction. The raw material rapidly heats up and gradually melts. During the heating process, the operator can observe the melting status through the observation window of the melting furnace 3 and fine-tune the heating power via the control panel 12 to ensure the raw material is fully melted. Simultaneously, the heating wire 51 on the furnace head 5 is energized to preheat the furnace head 5, maintaining it at a certain temperature to prevent the molten alloy from cooling and solidifying at the furnace head 5 outlet.
[0031] After the motor 8 starts, its output shaft drives the rotating rod 91 to rotate at a constant speed through the coupling. During the rotation of the rotating rod 91, it synchronously drives the disc 93 and the eccentric shaft 94 on it to rotate. The eccentric shaft 94 moves in a circular motion under the drive of the disc 93, which in turn drives the connecting disc 95 to make an eccentric motion. When the connecting disc 95 makes an eccentric motion, the connecting rods 99 on both sides of it move synchronously. One of the connecting rods 99 drives the slider 971 to slide along the slide rail on the rotating plate 97. When the slider 971 slides to the limiting groove 912 of the rotating disc 911, the slider 971 inserts into the limiting groove 912. At the same time, the sliding of the slider 971 causes the rotating plate 97 to rotate around the outer surface of the rotating shaft 96. Since the slider 971 is engaged with the limiting groove 912 of the rotating disc 911 at this time, the rotation of the rotating plate 97 will drive the rotating disc 911 to rotate synchronously. As the connecting disc 95 continues its eccentric motion, the connecting rod 99 causes the slider 971 to gradually disengage from the limiting groove 912 of the turntable 911. Simultaneously, another connecting rod 99 causes the positioning block 98 to slide along the sliding groove on the limiting block 92. When the slider 971 completely disengages from the limiting groove 912, the positioning block 98 precisely inserts into the adjacent limiting groove 912, restricting the turntable 911 from continuing to rotate, thus achieving the intermittent rotation of the turntable 911. The angle of each rotation of the turntable 911 is consistent with the spacing of the mold holes 913, ensuring that the mold holes 913 on the turntable 911 can move precisely and sequentially below the furnace head 5 to receive the molten alloy flowing from the outlet of the furnace head 5. After the molten alloy flows into the mold hole 913, it moves away from the furnace head 5 as the turntable 911 rotates. During this process, the molten alloy comes into contact with the air and dissipates heat through the heat conduction of the mold hole 913 and the turntable 911, achieving natural cooling and gradually solidifying to form an alloy bar. The intermittent rotation of the turntable 911 ensures continuous support of the molten alloy and provides sufficient cooling time for the alloy bar, eliminating the need for additional cooling equipment and saving energy.
[0032] While the rotating shaft 96 drives the turntable 911 to rotate, the protruding rod 915 at its end simultaneously performs a circular motion. When the protruding rod 915 rotates to contact the conical block 76 of the oiling component 7, the protruding rod 915 exerts a squeezing force on the inclined surface of the conical block 76, pushing the conical block 76 to move away from the rotating shaft 96. The conical block 76 drives the horizontal rod 72 to slide along the linear bearing on the mounting column 6. The horizontal rod 72 drives the piston rod 73 to slide into the oil tank 71 through the vertical plate 74. At this time, the spring 75 on the piston rod 73 is compressed, storing elastic potential energy. At the same time, the control panel 12 controls the solenoid valve 78 to open. The lubricating oil in the oil tank 71 is transported along the delivery pipe 77 to the connection between the rotating shaft 96 and the connecting plate 95 under the squeezing action of the piston rod 73, lubricating the rotating parts and reducing component wear. As the cam 915 continues to rotate and disengages from the conical block 76, the spring 75 releases its elastic potential energy, generating a rebound force that pulls the piston rod 73 out of the oil tank 71, returning it to its initial position. Simultaneously, the control panel 12 closes the solenoid valve 78, stopping the oil supply. With the continuous rotation of the shaft 96, the cam 915 repeatedly presses against the conical block 76, achieving intermittent addition of lubricating oil, ensuring lubrication while avoiding waste.
[0033] When the mold hole 913 containing the cooled alloy bar rotates with the turntable 911 to below the grinding assembly 11, the control panel 12 starts the grinding machine 117 according to the preset program. The grinding wheel of the grinding machine 117 rotates at high speed to grind the outer surface of the alloy bar, removing burrs, oxide scale and other impurities, and improving the surface precision of the alloy bar. The operator can adjust the height of the assembly plate by adjusting the nut 112 according to the diameter and surface precision requirements of the alloy bar, thereby adjusting the overall height of the grinding machine 117. At the same time, after pulling out the limit pin 115 and sliding the slide rod 114 to the appropriate position, the limit pin 115 is inserted into the corresponding limit hole 116 to fix the extension length of the slide rod 114, thereby adjusting the distance between the grinding machine 117 and the alloy bar, controlling the grinding pressure, and ensuring that the grinding effect meets the requirements. After grinding is completed, the control panel 12 controls the grinding machine 117 to stop working.
[0034] As the polished alloy rod continues to rotate with the turntable 911 to above the lifting assembly 10, the mounting plate 916 on the rotating rod 91 synchronously drives the protrusion 917 to rotate below the protrusion 103. After the protrusion 917 contacts the protrusion 103, as the rotating rod 91 rotates, the protrusion 917 exerts an upward squeezing force on the protrusion 103. The protrusion 103 drives the guide rod 102 to slide upward along the copper sleeve on the mounting bracket 101. The connecting plate 104 at the top of the guide rod 102 moves upward accordingly and pulls one end of the top rod 105 to rotate upward. Since the middle part of the push rod 105 is connected to the bracket 106 via the rotating rod, under the limiting action of the rotating rod, the other end of the push rod 105 rotates downward around the rotating rod. The arc-shaped contact head at the end of the push rod 105 contacts the bearing plate 914 and pushes the bearing plate 914 upward. The bearing plate 914 slides upward in the mold hole 913, driving the alloy rod on it to move synchronously. When the bearing plate 914 slides to the top of the mold hole 913, the alloy rod completely detaches from the mold hole 913 and falls into the collection frame below under the action of gravity, completing the collection. As the rotating rod 91 continues to rotate, the protrusion 917 gradually detaches from the protrusion 103, and the push rod 105 returns to its initial position under its own gravity. The bearing plate 914 also falls back to the bottom of the mold hole 913 under the action of gravity, ready to receive the alloy liquid for the next melting.
[0035] The entire device achieves linkage control of each component through the control panel 12. The speed of the motor 8 and the power of the high-frequency heater 4 are coordinated to ensure the coordination of alloy melting and transfer rhythm. The actions of the oiling component 7, the grinding component 11, and the lifting component 10 are synchronized with the interval rotation of the turntable 911, realizing the continuous automated preparation of nickel-based alloy bars from raw material melting, forming and cooling, surface grinding to finished product collection, which greatly improves production efficiency and ensures the stability of product quality.
