Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a cooling control device for a pipe body at the outlet side of a steel pipe heat treatment furnace, and belongs to the technical field of cooling control devices. Background Technology

[0002] At present, the heat treatment line in the heat treatment workshop is equipped with a steel pipe heating furnace, which can realize the normalizing heating treatment of seamless steel pipes of different materials and specifications. The heated pipes of different materials and different wall thicknesses have different cooling rates after leaving the furnace. The heated pipes are at high temperature for a long time, which may cause the ferrite grains of the pipes to grow, which has a great impact on the mechanical properties. Therefore, after heating, the pipe body is controlled to cool and the accelerated cooling process is combined to reduce the phase transformation temperature and further refine the ferrite and pearlite structures. When the cooling rate reaches a certain value, the phase transformation structure that may be obtained will change from ferrite and pearlite structures to finer ferrite and bainite structures. The amount of bainite will increase with the acceleration of the cooling rate, and the generated bainite structure will be extremely fine, thereby further enhancing the strength of the pipe body. Therefore, as long as the accelerated cooling process is reasonably selected, grain refinement can be achieved, the brittle transition temperature can be reduced, and the tensile and impact properties of the pipe body can be further improved.

[0003] The existing steel pipe cooling devices include four-sided or circumferential fixed water nozzle spray cooling, spray cooling implemented on the cooling bed, fan cooling, etc. The four-sided or circumferential fixed water nozzle spray cooling technology requires the customization of different numbers of nozzle spray rings for different pipe diameter ranges. The device is complicated, and the fixed water nozzle spray cooling is easy to cause uneven circumferential temperature drop of the pipe body and unstable performance. The spray cooling or fan cooling technology implemented on the cooling bed is also easy to cause uneven temperature drop between the two ends and the middle of the pipe body or uneven temperature drop on the positive and negative sides of the pipe body, resulting in unstable pipe performance and high defective product rate. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The design of water pump, pneumatic butterfly valve control and spraying device superposition can realize a variety of different cooling and temperature control treatments such as water cooling, water cooling + mist cooling, and mist cooling. After the pipe body is normalized at 810-940℃, the accelerated cooling of cooling and temperature control can effectively refine the grain size, improve the mechanical properties, and improve the product qualification rate and yield rate.

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is achieved through the following technical measures: a cooling device for the pipe body at the outlet side of a steel pipe heat treatment furnace, including a temperature control device, one side of the temperature control device is connected to a turbid circulating water pipeline through a pipeline, and a pipeline pump, a pneumatic butterfly valve, and a pressure gauge are arranged on the pipeline in sequence, and a water discharge device is arranged on the other side of the temperature control device.

[0009] Copper gaskets are respectively provided between the third water jacket inner liner and the first water jacket inner liner, and between the third water jacket inner liner and the second water jacket inner liner.

[0010] The third water jacket inner liner is respectively fixedly connected to the first water jacket inner liner and the second water jacket inner liner by screws.

[0011] The first water jacket inner liner, the second water jacket inner liner, and the third water jacket inner liner form a cavity, and a water inlet is provided at the center of the third water jacket inner liner.

[0012] One side below of the first water jacket inner liner close to the second water jacket inner liner has a first inclined portion, and one side below of the second water jacket inner liner close to the first water jacket inner liner has a second inclined portion. The first inclined portion and the second inclined portion are opposite to form a spray slot, and the spray slot is located below the water inlet.

[0013] The included angle between the center line of the water inlet and the centripetal line of the water jacket axis of the same cross-section is 7.2°, and the width of the spray slot is 0.2 mm.

[0014] A front end cover and a rear end cover are respectively connected to both sides of the water jacket housing.
