Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of large-scale ring rolling machine equipment parts, in particular to a large-scale ring rolling machine core shaft cooling device. Background Art
[0002] In the field of large ring forging manufacturing, large horizontal ring rolling machine is one of the key equipment, mainly used to produce large ring forgings. Large horizontal ring rolling machine is used to process metal ring materials into required ring-shaped workpieces, such as bearing rings, gear rings, etc. through continuous plastic deformation by rolling. The performance of large horizontal ring rolling machine directly affects the quality and production efficiency of forgings. Large forgings will release a lot of heat during the ring rolling process, and the ring rolling machine will also generate a lot of heat. Therefore, it needs to withstand high temperature and high pressure during the working process, so the design and maintenance of its cooling system is particularly important. The large ring rolling machine used in the prior art generally adopts an automatic water cooling device, but the equipment has the following problems in actual use: 1) Decreased cooling effect: With the long-term use of the equipment, the water cooling system may be blocked, corroded or have reduced efficiency, resulting in reduced cooling effect. This will cause the mandrel to work at high temperature, increasing the risk of damage caused by thermal stress; 2) Mandrel material and thermal impact: The mandrel is usually made of high-strength material to withstand high temperature and mechanical stress. However, even the best materials will lose strength under continuous high temperatures, leading to plastic deformation. 3) Plastic deformation: At high temperatures, the mandrel may undergo plastic deformation, which can lead to loss of precision, affect the quality of forgings, and ultimately cause the mandrel to be scrapped. In order to ensure the continuous and efficient operation of the ring rolling machine, the cooling system needs to be regularly inspected and maintained. In summary, improving cooling efficiency, extending the service life of the mandrel, and reducing the degradation of material properties due to increased temperature are technical challenges in the design and maintenance of large horizontal ring rolling machines.
