Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of steel ball heat treatment, and particularly relates to a heat treatment tool for super-large steel balls. BACKGROUND

[0002] Steel balls are important basic components and are widely used in the fields of bearings, precision instruments, ball milling equipment and the like. As a key bearing component of rolling bearings, the steel ball acts as a rolling body in the bearing to bear and transmit load and rotates with the bearing. Since any point on the surface of the steel ball is a working surface bearing load, the contact area is small, the contact stress is large, and the steel ball is subjected to a relatively poor stress condition, and is prone to fatigue failure.

[0003] For example, super-large steel balls with a diameter greater than 150 mm need to be heat treated in a salt bath roller furnace. However, it is found in sample testing that the original tooling cannot meet the heat treatment requirements. Since the super-large steel balls are heavy, serious bruising occurs at the contact position between the steel ball and the tray during heating. Moreover, the steel ball rolls during transmission in the tray, which not only causes a large bruising area of the steel ball, but also affects the transmission stability of the tray, thereby affecting the product quality of the steel ball and the stable operation of the heat treatment equipment. If the amount of reserved material is increased to ensure the quality of the finished steel ball, the grinding efficiency will be greatly reduced, the material utilization rate will be greatly reduced, and the production cycle will be prolonged.
