Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of forging, and particularly relates to a local heating tooling applicable to long shaft forgings. Background Art

[0002] The long shaft forging with a flange is one of the key components of an aeroengine. Since the diameter difference between the flange part and the rod part of this type of forging is relatively large, the conventional forging method is to rough and stretch the rod part first, and then perform die forging to upset and thicken the large head part to form the flange part. In the die forging process, in order not to upset the rod part again, it is often necessary to locally heat the rough large head part. The traditional heating method is to place the rough large head part in the heating furnace, place the non-deformed rod part outside the heating furnace, and pad it with refractory bricks. The gap between the furnace door and the bar stock is filled with heat-insulating cotton. This heating method has the disadvantages of complex operation process, poor heat preservation effect, and great potential safety hazards, and is not suitable for mass production of products.

[0019] For a long shaft forging with a flange, the traditional heating method is that the rough-shaped deformation part is placed inside the heating furnace, the non-deformed part is placed outside the heating furnace and padded with refractory bricks, and the gap between the furnace door and the bar stock is filled with heat-insulating cotton. This method has the disadvantages of complex operation process, poor heat preservation effect and great potential safety hazards. The utility model designs a local heating tooling, which consists of two parts, namely a lower heating tooling 1 and an upper heating tooling 2; its external dimensions match the dimensions of the furnace door opening. A plurality of uniformly distributed U-shaped grooves are arranged on the heating tooling 2. During local heating, the rough-shaped rod part is placed on the U-shaped grooves, the large-head deformation part is placed inside the heating furnace, and then after laying heat-insulating cotton on the heating tooling 2 and lowering the furnace door, heating can be started. This tooling solves the disadvantages of the traditional furnace loading method, is simple to manufacture, and has the value of popularization.

[0020] The utility model designs a local heating tooling suitable for long shaft forgings, which solves the disadvantages of complex operation process, poor heat preservation effect and great potential safety hazards existing in the local heating of traditional long shaft forgings. The heating tooling includes: a lower heating tooling 1 and an upper heating tooling 2, as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 shown, the internal structure distribution of the upper heating tooling 2 is as Figure 3 shown.

[0021] The lower heating tooling 1 is placed at the furnace door opening of the heating furnace. Its length is 100 mm smaller than the width of the furnace door, its height is the same as the drop from the bottom of the furnace chamber to the bottom of the furnace door opening, and its width is smaller than the extended length of the furnace door opening. Considering factors such as the length of the exposed part of the rod during the heating of the long shaft forging and the strength of the tooling, its width is designed to be 400 mm. The lower heating tooling can be used to level the drop from the furnace door opening to the bottom of the furnace chamber, that is, after the lower heating tooling is placed at the furnace door opening, its upper plane is flush with the furnace chamber;

[0022] The upper heating tooling 2 is stacked on the lower heating tooling 1 to pad up the rough-shaped rod part of the long shaft forging. Its external length and width are the same as those of the lower heating tooling 1. A plurality of uniformly distributed U-shaped grooves are arranged on this tooling. The radius of the arc section is 5 mm larger than the rough-shaped rod part of the long shaft forging. Its straight section is a parallel line extended from the tangent of the bottom semi-circle, and the height of this straight section is equal to the radius of the arc section. The vertical distance from the bottom of the U-shaped groove to the bottom of the upper heating tooling is equal to the height of the furnace bottom plate plus the radius difference between the large head and the rod of the rough-shaped long shaft forging. The distance between each U-shaped groove is 50 - 100 mm larger than the diameter difference between the large head and the rod of the rough-shaped part.

[0023] The lower heating tooling 1 is composed of a first steel framework 11 and steel fiber refractory material blocks 12. The manufacturing process is as follows: First, a rectangular inner cavity is made of steel plates, with its length and width being the same as those of the lower heating tooling. At the upper and lower end faces of the rectangular inner cavity, the steel plates extend inwards by 30 - 50 mm. Then, the rectangular inner cavity is partitioned into several grids by steel plates to form the first steel framework 11 of the lower heating tooling. The steel plates are all connected by welding, and the length of the grids is the same as the width of the steel framework. Finally, the steel framework is filled with steel fiber heat-resistant material 12 to make the lower heating tooling 1.

[0024] The upper heating tooling 2 is composed of a second steel framework 21 and steel fiber refractory material parts 22. The steel fiber refractory material parts 22 are made into the required shape in a special mold and then reinforced with the second steel framework 21.

[0025] The thickness of the steel plate for making the steel framework is 10 - 15 mm.

[0026] On the inner and outer surfaces formed by the length and height of the upper heating tooling 2, heat-insulating cotton with a thickness of 10 - 15 mm is pasted with an adhesive.

[0027] Two rectangular through-grooves 24 are provided at the bottom of the upper heating tooling 2, and the width and height of the through-grooves 24 are matched with the forks of the forklift.

[0028] In this example, taking the long-axis forging of GH4169 as an example, the specific implementation process is as follows:

[0029] Step 1: Use a forklift to place the lower heating tooling 1 on the extended platform at the furnace door, and then stack the upper heating tooling 2 on the lower heating tooling 1 with the forklift.

[0030] Step 2: Place the rough shape of the long-axis forging so that its large head is placed within the qualified area of the heating furnace, and the rod part passes through the U-shaped groove 24 and extends outside the furnace door.

[0031] Step 3: Use heat-insulating cotton to fill the gap between the rough shape rod part and the U-shaped groove 24. After covering a layer of heat-insulating cotton on the upper end face of the upper heating tooling 2, lower the furnace door and press the upper heating tooling 2.

[0032] Step 4: Start heating. The specific heating regime is as follows: Enter the furnace at ≤750 °C, hold at 850 °C for 195 min, then raise the temperature to 1000 °C and hold for 150 min.

[0033] Step 5: Take the rough shape out of the furnace, place it in the die, and upset the large head of the rough shape to make the required long-axis forging with a flange.
