Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of precision part manufacturing, and particularly relates to a residual stress elimination device for precision metal materials. Background Technique

[0002] Residual stress often occurs during the manufacturing of precision metal components. Appropriate residual stress may become a factor for component strengthening, while inappropriate residual stress may lead to process defects such as deformation and cracking. After processing, residual stress will affect the static load strength, fatigue strength, stress corrosion resistance, and shape and size stability of components. Generally, there are three methods to eliminate residual stress: natural aging, thermal aging, and vibration aging. The commonly used method is heat treatment annealing. If the heat treatment annealing process is not properly handled, it is easy to cause changes in the material structure, thereby affecting the mechanical properties such as the strength of the components. The vibration aging process has the advantages of low energy consumption, low cost, high efficiency, and high environmental protection, and can replace the natural aging and thermal aging processes of workpieces. In the research of vibration aging, domestic research mainly focuses on low-frequency vibration aging at present. The developed low-frequency vibration aging equipment has been widely used in production and achieved good results.

[0003] Research shows that vibration aging is a micro-plastic deformation that occurs within the elastic range of the material. The micro-plastic deformation only occurs in some grains of the material, dislocation bands are formed inside the sub-grains, the sub-grain boundaries rotate to form "grains", the dislocations at the sub-grain boundaries open, forming microscopic yield zones one by one, and the lattice distortion decreases, thereby reducing the peak value of the residual stress in the workpiece and making it evenly distributed.

[0004] The patent number is CN 201910389855.0, which discloses a device and method for reducing and equalizing residual stress in complex components. The invention superimposes the alternating dynamic stress applied by the high-energy elastic waves in the component on the residual stress concentration area through a focused scanning method, and finally reduces and equalizes the residual stress inside the component.

[0005] However, with the development of product miniaturization and precision, the requirement for the size stability of small parts is getting higher and higher. Ultrasonic vibration has a low amplitude and high frequency, and the input energy per unit time is relatively large, so the time for eliminating residual stress is short. Using the above-mentioned scheme, the time is long and the process is relatively cumbersome, and it cannot be processed in batches.

[0006] Therefore, what this application wants to solve is how to implement a batch processing solution for eliminating residual stress for small precision parts, and at the same time make the device have a wider range of applications and be applicable to various models of precision parts.

[0035] In the following description, a large number of specific details are given to provide a more thorough understanding of the present utility model. However, it is obvious to those skilled in the art that the present utility model can be implemented without one or more of these details. In other examples, in order to avoid confusion with the present utility model, some well-known technical features in the art are not described. Embodiment

[0036] This application proposes a device for eliminating residual stress for metal precision materials, including: storage 1, rotating assembly, 4 ultrasonic units 2, ultrasonic system 3. Among them, a rotating assembly is installed in the storage 1, and the rotating assembly is used to batch-carry parts and rotate at a specified speed. A semi-solid ultrasonic coupling agent is also placed in the storage 1. The ultrasonic unit 2 can be detachably assembled with the memory. Among them, the output end of the ultrasonic unit 2 is located in the memory and does not contact the inner wall of the memory, being in a suspended state. The ultrasonic system 3 is electrically connected to the ultrasonic unit 2 to control the operation of the ultrasonic unit 2.

[0037] The storage 1 has a square structure and is made of corrosion-resistant polymer with a mirror stainless steel material lining, used for storing the semi-solid ultrasonic coupling agent.

[0038] In this solution, the storage 1 is a detachable structure and is reinforced by a snap structure, which means that the practicality of this application is wider. By opening the box body 11 and the sealing cover 12, parts can be stored and retrieved quantitatively, and the residual stress can be eliminated.

[0039] The output end of the ultrasonic unit 2 is a long cylindrical structure, which is an ultrasonic vibration rod and contains an ultrasonic transducer. It is connected to the ultrasonic control system through a wire. The output ends of the ultrasonic unit 2 are symmetrically distributed at the four corners of the square container and are in a semi-suspended state. When in use, the parts are all buried in the ultrasonic coupling agent, which can effectively reduce the ultrasonic energy loss and improve the ultrasonic vibration aging effect and efficiency.

[0040] In this solution, due to the semi-solid ultrasonic coupling agent and multiple ultrasonic units 2, and with the help of the rotating assembly at the same time, batch processing of eliminating the residual stress of precision parts can be realized, with high efficiency.

[0041] Based on the above solution, the storage 1 in this application includes a box body 11 and a sealing cover 12. Among them, a through hole is opened at the bottom of the box body 11 for installing the rotating assembly. The sealing cover 12 is detachably installed on the top of the box body 11 for sealing treatment. Installation holes are evenly distributed on the sealing cover 12 for assembling the output ends of the ultrasonic units 2, that is, the ultrasonic vibration heads.

[0042] The rotating assembly in this application includes a rotating shaft 4, a bearing seat 5 and a motor. Among them, the rotating shaft 4 is rotatably installed at the bottom of the storage 1. One end of the rotating shaft 4 is arranged inside the storage 1, and the bearing seat 5 is installed at the end. The motor drives the other end of the rotating shaft 4. The upper top surface of the bearing seat 5 is concave to form a limiting area for limiting the parts to prevent them from slipping.

[0043] The motor drive and other components in this application are installed inside the bottom layer of the box body 11 and are isolated from the inside of the box body. The design of this solution is that since the rotation speed is stable, the motor is installed at the bottom of the storage 1 to increase the mass of the box body 11, thereby reducing external vibration.
