Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application belongs to the field of automobile manufacturing technology, specifically relating to a non-quenched and tempered steel crankshaft for a high-horsepower engine and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] The crankshaft is the most critical component of an engine. It converts the reciprocating linear motion from the piston and connecting rod assembly into its own rotational motion, generating continuous rotational torque. This torque is then transmitted to the transmission system, including the gearbox, drive shaft, and drive axle, via the flywheel, thus providing power to the entire vehicle. The timing gear or pulley at the front of the crankshaft drives the valve train, oil pump, water pump, air conditioning compressor, and other accessories. Furthermore, to balance the inertial forces generated by the crankshaft's rotation and reciprocating motion, counterweights are installed on it to reduce engine vibration. Therefore, the crankshaft is like the "backbone" of the engine, the most crucial component ensuring its continuous and efficient operation.
[0003] Currently, environmentally friendly non-quenched and tempered steel has become the preferred choice for key automotive components such as crankshafts and connecting rods. Its performance is essentially the same as quenched and tempered steel, but its processing efficiency is significantly improved. It also effectively avoids the risks of quenching cracks associated with steel tempering, resulting in substantial economic and social benefits. In recent years, with the rapid development of the commercial vehicle industry, high-horsepower engines are rapidly evolving towards "high horsepower, high explosion pressure, low noise, and long lifespan." High reliability has become a critical bottleneck technology that urgently needs to be overcome in the production process of non-quenched and tempered steel crankshafts, and it has also become the biggest weakness restricting China's heavy-duty trucks from reaching world-class standards.
[0004] After extensive exploration and statistical analysis, the dimensional accuracy of the crankshaft has been identified as the most significant factor affecting its reliability. Achieving high precision in non-quenched and tempered steel crankshafts at low cost is a crucial technology that urgently needs to be addressed. However, for high-horsepower engine crankshafts, the number and size of the main journals and connecting rod journals are numerous, resulting in severe deformation during heat treatment, with runout being the most prominent issue. Reducing crankshaft runout and minimizing grinding of the main journals and connecting rod journals has been a major challenge for the automotive industry, and is also one of the most effective measures for reducing production costs and enhancing the competitiveness of domestically produced non-quenched and tempered steel crankshafts. Therefore, a method is urgently needed to reduce crankshaft runout and minimize grinding of the main journals and connecting rod journals in the manufacture of non-quenched and tempered steel crankshafts for high-horsepower engines.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the method for preparing a non-quenched and tempered steel crankshaft for a high-horsepower engine as described in this application, in step S3, the second quenching method specifically involves simultaneously performing medium-frequency induction quenching and cooling on the second crankshaft's main journal 2, connecting rod journal 2, main journal 4, connecting rod journal 5, and main journal 6, at a rotation speed of 40-50 rpm.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of the method for preparing a non-quenched and tempered steel crankshaft for a high-horsepower engine as described in this application, in step S3, the cooling in the first quenching and the second quenching is PAG quenching liquid with a concentration of 10-13% and a temperature of 23-29℃.
[0013] As a preferred embodiment of the method for preparing a non-quenched and tempered steel crankshaft for a high-horsepower engine as described in this application, in step S3, the runout of the main journal in the third crankshaft is ≤0.25mm, and the runout of the connecting rod journal in the third crankshaft is ≤0.20mm.
[0014] This application also provides a non-quenched and tempered steel crankshaft for a high-horsepower engine, which is prepared using the above-described method for preparing a non-quenched and tempered steel crankshaft for a high-horsepower engine.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this application are as follows: This application provides a non-quenched and tempered steel crankshaft for high-horsepower engines and its preparation method. Through innovative chemical composition design, this application uses common elements such as C, Si, Mn, and Cr, and strictly controls the Mn / S and Al / N ratios to control the morphology of sulfides and refine the metallographic structure of the non-quenched and tempered steel crankshaft blank. Simultaneously, it controls grain size, banded structure, and end hardenability, ensuring high consistency in the performance of the non-quenched and tempered steel crankshaft blank. Furthermore, the high forging temperature and short holding time result in high straightness of the non-quenched and tempered steel crankshaft blank. Then, during machining, an original deformation pre-reservation method was used to machine the cylindrical surfaces of the main journal and connecting rod journal in the second crankshaft into an ingot shape with high ends and low middle. The degree of concavity in the middle of different main journals and connecting rod journals was different. Then, a highly efficient two-step induction hardening method was used to successfully reduce the runout of the main journal in the third crankshaft to ≤0.25mm and the runout of the connecting rod journal in the third crankshaft to ≤0.20mm, which is only half of the industry average of 0.40-0.50mm. This greatly reduced the subsequent grinding amount of the main journal and connecting rod journal in the third crankshaft and reduced the incidence of grinding cracks to ≤0.20%, reaching the top level in the industry.
[0016] This application pre-machines the journals into a "high at both ends and low in the middle" ingot shape, reserving "deformation space" and "material allowance" for subsequent quenching deformation. During quenching, the sharp corners at both ends have a strong effect, and the rapid heating causes thermal stress and microstructure transformation, driving the material to expand and deform outward. The pre-designed recess provides "accommodation space" for this deformation, allowing stress to be released directionally within a controlled range, rather than randomly twisting the journal. This application's step-by-step quenching avoids the simultaneous and intense heating and cooling of all journals. The first step processes a portion of the journals, allowing them to complete the main deformation within the pre-designed ingot-shaped area. After they have stabilized relatively, the second step processes adjacent journals. This avoids the stress superposition and mutual pulling caused by the simultaneous deformation of multiple journals, allowing the pre-deformed recess to accurately "absorb" the deformation amount of each step, ultimately approaching the ideal cylindrical surface.
[0017] This application uses common elements such as C, Si, Mn, and Cr in the non-quenched and tempered steel crankshaft blanks, strictly controlling the Mn / S and Al / N ratios, while also controlling grain size, banded structure, and end-hardenability. This results in stable crankshaft raw material performance and low cost. This application employs a unique deformation pre-reservation method and a two-step induction hardening process, achieving a runout of ≤0.25mm for the main journal and ≤0.20mm for the connecting rod journal in the third crankshaft, only half the industry average of 0.40-0.50mm. This significantly reduces the grinding amount of the main journal and connecting rod journal in the third crankshaft, lowering the grinding crack incidence to ≤0.20%, reaching industry-leading levels. Therefore, processing efficiency is greatly improved, and production costs are significantly reduced. The process operation of this application is simple, requiring no additional equipment, and the quenching medium is a water-based solution, making it safe and environmentally friendly.
