[0036] An embodiment of this application provides a quenching machine 100 and a quenching production line 1000 for quenching and straightening a product 50. In the embodiment of this application, the product 50 is taken as a steel plate for illustration. It can be understood that the product 50 can also be other products that need quenching.
[0037] To achieve the above object, in a first aspect, an embodiment of this application provides a quenching machine 100. Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , the quenching machine 100 includes a spraying mechanism 10 and a straightening mechanism 20 arranged in sequence along a first direction X; the spraying mechanism 10 includes an upper spraying unit 11 and a lower spraying unit 12 arranged oppositely. Both the upper spraying unit 11 and the lower spraying unit 12 extend along the first direction X. The upper spraying unit 11 is used to spray a fluid onto the product 50 to cool the product 50; the lower spraying unit 12 is used to spray a fluid onto the product 50 to support and cool the product 50; the spraying directions of the upper spraying unit 11 and / or the lower spraying unit 12 are inclined towards the side close to the straightening mechanism 20 to push the product 50 along the first direction X to the straightening mechanism 20.
[0038] It can be understood that the upper spraying unit 11 is used to spray a fluid onto the product 50 from above the product 50; the fluid can be a gas or a liquid; optionally, the product 50 is a wear-resistant steel plate of NM500, NM550 or NM600 grade with a thickness of 1.2 mm - 1.5 mm.
[0039] It can be understood that the lower spraying unit 12 is used to spray a fluid onto the product 50 from below the product 50. Optionally, the component of the fluid sprayed by the lower spraying unit 12 in the vertical direction on the product 50 is equal to the sum of the component of the fluid sprayed by the upper spraying unit 11 in the vertical direction and the gravity of the corresponding part of the product 50 of the spraying mechanism 10, so that the product 50 remains stable in the vertical direction.
[0040] It can be understood that the spraying direction of the upper spraying unit 11 is inclined towards the side close to the straightening mechanism 20; or, the spraying direction of the lower spraying unit 12 is inclined towards the side close to the straightening mechanism 20; or the spraying directions of both the upper spraying unit 11 and the lower spraying unit 12 are inclined towards the side close to the straightening mechanism 20.
[0041] The straightening mechanism 20 is used to support the product 50 and convey the product 50 along the first direction X, and is also used to straighten the product 50.
[0042] The beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: The spraying direction of the upper spraying unit 11 or the lower spraying unit 12 is inclined towards the side close to the straightening mechanism 20, and a component force along the first direction X can be applied to the product 50 by spraying the fluid, so that the product 50 moves towards the straightening mechanism 20 under the push of the fluid; there is no conveying roller blocking between the fluid and the product 50, and the fluid above and below the product 50 can directly cool the product 50, making the cooling of each position of the product 50 more uniform, and solving the technical problem that the conveying roller affects the cooling of the product 50 during quenching in the prior art. During the quenching process of the steel plate, the latent heat of phase change and phase change expansion generated by the phase change will cause the plate shape of the quenched steel plate to be very poor, and the subsequent processing of the steel plate mainly composed of the hard phase martensite is more difficult. The straightening mechanism 20 is provided in this embodiment to straighten the steel plate during the quenching process and reduce the processing difficulty.
[0043] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 , the included angle between the spraying direction of the upper spraying unit 11 and / or the lower spraying unit 12 and the first direction X is 36° - 45°.
[0044] It can be understood that the included angle A between the spraying direction of the upper spraying unit 11 and the first direction X is 36° - 45°; or, the included angle between the spraying direction of the lower spraying unit 12 and the first direction X is 36° - 45°; or, the included angles between the spraying directions of the upper spraying unit 11 and the lower spraying unit 12 and the first direction X are both 36° - 45°. Optionally, the included angle between the spraying direction of the upper spraying unit 11 or the lower spraying unit 12 and the first direction X can be set to 38°, 40° or 45°.
[0045] The beneficial effect of this embodiment is: Setting the above included angle range enables the fluid sprayed by the upper spraying unit 11 or the lower spraying unit 12 to generate a relatively large component force on the product 50 in the first direction X, and at the same time enables the spraying mechanism 10 to have a relatively small length in the first direction X, reducing the space occupation.
[0046] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 , the quenching machine 100 further includes a housing 40 extending along the first direction X, and the housing 40 includes a feed inlet 41 and a discharge outlet 42; the spraying mechanism 10 and the straightening mechanism 20 are both arranged inside the housing 40.
[0047] It can be understood that the feed inlet 41 and the discharge outlet 42 are sequentially arranged at both ends of the housing 40 along the first direction X, and the spraying mechanism 10 is arranged on the side of the straightening mechanism 20 close to the feed inlet 41. When the product 50 is quenched, it passes through the spraying mechanism 10 and the straightening mechanism 20 in sequence from the feed inlet 41.
[0048] The beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: By providing the housing 40, the influence of the external environment on the cooling of the product 50 can be reduced, making the cooling of the product 50 more uniform.
[0049] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the upper injection unit 11 and the lower injection unit 12 are respectively arranged on both sides of the product 50 along the second direction Z; both the upper injection unit 11 and the lower injection unit 12 include a plurality of first injection components 13 and a plurality of second injection components 14 distributed along the first direction X; the first injection components 13 are used to cool the middle part of the product 50 along the third direction Y; the first direction X, the second direction Z, and the third direction Y are perpendicular to each other; a plurality of second injection components 14 are respectively arranged on both sides of the first injection components 13 along the third direction Y to cool both ends of the product 50 along the third direction Y; the distance between adjacent second injection components 14 in the first direction X is greater than the distance between adjacent first injection components 13, so that the cooling speed of the middle part of the product 50 by the fluid is faster than that of both ends.
[0050] It can be understood that the first direction X only represents the direction from the injection mechanism 10 to the straightening mechanism 20; the second direction Z represents the direction from the first injection assembly to the second injection assembly and the opposite direction; the third direction Y represents the direction from the first injection assembly to the second injection assembly and the opposite direction.
[0051] Optionally, the first direction X is the length direction of the product 50, the second direction Z is the thickness direction of the product 50, and the third direction Y is the width direction of the product 50.
[0052] It can be understood that the first injection components 13 are more densely distributed in the first direction X than the second injection components 14 in the first direction X. Optionally, the first injection components 13 are equally spaced along the first direction X, and the second injection components 14 are equally spaced along the first direction X.
[0053] Optionally, the first injection components 13 and the second injection components 14 can be multiple sector nozzles distributed along the third direction Y, or can be an air curtain nozzle or a water curtain nozzle with a length along the third direction Y.
[0054] In the natural state, both ends of the product 50 in the third direction Y can dissipate heat from the upper surface, the lower surface, and the end surface respectively, while only the upper surface and the lower surface of the middle part of the product 50 can dissipate heat, making the heat dissipation speed of both ends of the product 50 faster and the overall cooling of the product 50 uneven.
[0055] The beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: The distance between adjacent second injection components 14 in the first direction X is greater than the distance between adjacent first injection components 13, so that the cooling rate of the product 50 by the fluid in the middle in the third direction Y is faster than that at both ends, which can compensate for the difference in cooling rate between the middle and both ends of the product 50, making the cooling rate between the middle and both ends of the product 50 more consistent and the overall cooling of the product 50 uniform.
[0056] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , both the first injection component 13 and the second injection component 14 include air curtain nozzles; the injection mechanism 10 further includes a plurality of supplementary nozzles 15 distributed along the first direction X, and the supplementary nozzles 15 are arranged between the first injection component 13 and the second injection component 14 to cool the area of the product 50 between the first injection component 13 and the second injection component 14; the injection direction of the supplementary nozzles 15 forms an angle of 36° - 45° with the first direction X.
[0057] The length direction of the air curtain nozzle is the third direction Y. Optionally, the supplementary nozzle 15 is a wide-angle nozzle or a straight nozzle. Optionally, the angle between the injection direction of the supplementary nozzle 15 and the first direction X can be set to 36°, 42° or 43°.
[0058] The beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: Setting the air curtain nozzle can eject a continuous air curtain to uniformly cool the product 50; during installation, there needs to be a certain gap between adjacent air curtain nozzles along the third direction Y, and the supplementary nozzle 15 can fill the gap between two air curtain nozzles to uniformly cool the product 50.
[0059] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 , the straightening mechanism 20 includes a squeezing roller group 21 and several first straightening roller groups 22 arranged in sequence along the first direction X; the squeezing roller group 21 includes a plurality of upper squeezing rollers 211 and a plurality of lower squeezing rollers 212, the diameters of the upper squeezing rollers 211 and the lower squeezing rollers 212 are equal, and the upper squeezing rollers 211 and the lower squeezing rollers 212 are alternately arranged along the first direction X; the first straightening roller group 22 includes a first upper roller 221 and a first lower roller 222 arranged oppositely.
[0060] It can be understood that the upper squeezing rollers 211, the lower squeezing rollers 212, the first upper roller 221 and the first lower roller 222 all extend along the third direction Y.
[0061] The distance between the upper squeezing roller 211 and the lower squeezing roller 212 in the second direction Z is greater than the thickness of the product 50 in the second direction Z.
[0062] It can be understood that the diameters of the first upper roller 221 and the first lower roller 222 are equal.
[0063] The beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: By applying a downward pressure to the product 50 through the upper pressing roller 211 and an upward pressure to the product 50 through the lower pressing roller 212, the product 50 is deformed, and the thermal stress and tissue stress of the product 50 are eliminated, making it easier for the first upper roller 221 and the first lower roller 222 to straighten the product 50.
[0064] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 , the straightening mechanism 20 further includes a plurality of second straightening roller groups 23 distributed along the first direction X. The second straightening roller groups 23 are arranged on the side of the first straightening roller group 22 away from the pressing roller group 21. The second straightening roller group 23 includes a second upper roller 231 and a second lower roller 232 arranged oppositely. The diameters of the second upper roller 231, the first upper roller 221, and the upper pressing roller 211 increase in sequence.
[0065] It can be understood that the diameters of the second upper roller 231 and the second lower roller 232 are equal and both extend along the third direction Y.
[0066] The beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: By providing the second straightening roller group 23 to further straighten the product 50, the product 50 becomes flatter. The roller diameters of the first straightening roller group 22 and the second straightening roller group 23 gradually decrease, and the force applied to the product 50 gradually becomes smaller, enabling the product 50 to be straightened step by step and gradually improving the flatness of the product 50.
[0067] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 , the straightening mechanism 20 further includes a plurality of pressure members 24, a plurality of upper pressing members 25, and a plurality of lower pressing members 26. The pressure members 24 are used to provide bending roll forces to make the upper pressing roller 211, the lower pressing roller 212, the first upper roller 221, and the first lower roller 222 bend positively. Each upper pressing member 25 presses against the tops of the upper pressing roller 211, the first upper roller 221, and the second upper roller 231 respectively. Each lower pressing member 26 presses against the bottoms of the lower pressing roller 212, the first lower roller 222, and the second lower roller 232 respectively.
[0068] It can be understood that each pressure member 24 is respectively arranged at the end portions of the upper squeezing roller 211, the lower squeezing roller 212, the first upper roller 221 and the first lower roller 222, and the second upper roller 231 and the second lower roller 232 along the length direction. Some of the pressure members 24 are arranged above the upper squeezing roller 211 and the first upper roller 221 and apply a downward pressure on the upper squeezing roller 211 and the first upper roller 221; some other pressure members 24 are arranged below the lower squeezing roller 212 and the first lower roller 222 and apply an upward pressure on the lower squeezing roller 212 and the first lower roller 222. Optionally, the pressure member 24 is a hydraulic cylinder and applies pressure to the roller through a bearing box. Positive bending utilizes the work roll deflection generated by the bending roll force to reduce the deflection of the rolling force acting on the work roll. The upper squeezing roller 211, the lower squeezing roller 212, the first upper roller 221 and the first lower roller 222 are all work rolls.
[0069] It can be understood that the upper pressing member 25 applies a downward pressure on the upper squeezing roller 211 and the first upper roller 221, and the lower pressing member 26 applies an upward pressure on the lower squeezing roller 212 and the first lower roller 222; the upper pressing member 25 and the lower pressing member 26 are arranged at the middle parts of the upper squeezing roller 211, the lower squeezing roller 212, the first upper roller 221 and the first lower roller 222 along the third direction Y. Optionally, the upper pressing member 25 and the lower pressing member 26 are pressing rollers extending along the third direction Y, and the length of the pressing roller is less than the lengths of the upper squeezing roller 211, the first upper roller 221 and the second upper roller 231.
[0070] The beneficial effect of this embodiment is that by arranging the pressure member 24, the upper pressing member 25 and the lower pressing member 26, the forces applied by the product 50 on the upper squeezing roller 211, the lower squeezing roller 212, the first upper roller 221 and the first lower roller 222 can be balanced, reducing the deformation of the upper squeezing roller 211, the lower squeezing roller 212, the first upper roller 221 and the first lower roller 222, and making the product 50 flatter.
[0071] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 Figure, the quenching machine 100 further includes a plurality of third spraying components 30. Each third spraying component 30 is respectively arranged between adjacent upper squeezing rollers 211, between adjacent lower squeezing rollers 212, between adjacent first straightening roller groups 22, and between adjacent second straightening roller groups 23; the third spraying component 30 is used for spraying fluid onto the product 50, the upper squeezing roller 211, the lower squeezing roller 212, the first straightening roller group 22 and the second straightening roller group 23.
[0072] It can be understood that third spraying components 30 are provided between adjacent first upper rollers 221, between adjacent first lower rollers 222, between adjacent second upper rollers 231, and between adjacent second lower rollers 232; optionally, the third spraying component 30 includes a cooling nozzle 31 and cleaning nozzles 32 disposed on both sides of the cooling nozzle 31. The cooling nozzle 31 and the cleaning nozzles 32 are distributed along the first direction X. The cooling nozzle 31 is configured to spray a fluid onto the product 50 from above and below along the second direction Z; the spraying directions of the cleaning nozzles 32 are arranged towards the directions close to the upper pressing roller 211, the lower pressing roller 212, the first upper roller 221, the first lower roller 222, the second upper roller 231, and the second lower roller 232. The cleaning nozzles 32 are configured to spray a fluid onto the product 50, the upper pressing roller 211, the lower pressing roller 212, the first upper roller 221, the first lower roller 222, the second upper roller 231, and the second lower roller 232. The cleaning nozzles 32 and the cooling nozzle 31 can be configured as air curtain nozzles with lengths along the third direction Y.
[0073] The beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: The provision of the third spraying component 30 can straighten the product 50 while cooling the product 50, so that the product 50 is not prone to plastic deformation after being straightened; the third spraying component 30 can also clean the pressing roller set 21, the first straightening roller set 22, and the second straightening roller set 23, reducing the influence of dirt on the straightening of the product 50.
[0074] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , the quenching machine 100 includes a housing 40, a spraying mechanism 10, a straightening mechanism 20, and a third spraying component 30; the housing 40 extends along the first direction X, and the housing 40 includes a feed port 41 and a discharge port 42 sequentially arranged at both ends along the first direction X; the spraying mechanism 10 and the straightening mechanism 20 are sequentially arranged in the housing 40 along the first direction X.
