Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a cooling device for a wire rod rough rolling stand roll, belonging to the technical field of roll manufacturing. Background Art
[0002] In recent years, with the development of high-speed and continuous rolling of wire rod rolling mills at home and abroad, and the continuous improvement of rolled material performance, especially the long length of rolled materials and the long heating time of rolls in recent years, steel mills have increasingly higher requirements for the applicability of rolls, requiring not only good wear resistance and high strength of rolls, but also better resistance to thermal cracking and toughness.
[0003] At present, the rough rolling mill for wire rods generally adopts pearlite ductile iron rolls, and the roll diameter is generally 300-1000mm. The heat treatment process of the rolls in the preparation process generally adopts normalizing + high temperature tempering treatment, and the cooling process usually adopts the following methods: Figure 3 The cooling device shown is used for cooling, including a tugboat 15 driven by a power mechanism to support and drive the roller to rotate. There are four tugboats 15 and they are distributed below the roller body. The roller 17 is placed on the tugboat 15. There are four tugboats 15, which are used to support the roller body and drive the roller 17 to rotate through the power mechanism. During cooling, a fan 16 is used for air cooling, and water is passed through a water pipe. Under the wind force of the fan 16, the water flowing out of the water pipe is sprayed in a mist form, and air cooling and atomized water cooling are performed, and finally the roller structure is pearlite. The rollers processed according to this heat treatment process have the following problems during use:
[0004] 1. The wear resistance of the roller is poor, the thermal cracks on the groove bottom are serious, and the single rolling volume is low. Due to the high rolling temperature and slow rolling speed of the rough rolling stand, the surface temperature of the roller body is high. The product of simple spray cooling is based on pearlite structure and has low strength. Under the continuous impact of the steel billet, thermal cracks are prone to occur on the bottom of the roller groove.
[0005] 2. Thermal cracks are prone to occur at the bottom of the groove during the rolling process of the roller, and the wear resistance is poor, and a good hole shape cannot be maintained, resulting in a failure to ensure a good material shape after rough rolling, affecting the subsequent rolling quality.
[0006] 3. The performance difference between the inner and outer working layers of the rollers is large. For the above heat-treated rollers, the hardness difference between the inner and outer working layers of 100mm can reach more than 5HSD, which leads to a significant decrease in the wear resistance of the rollers during the later use, a short rolling time on the mill, and affects the rolling efficiency.
