Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model belongs to bearing clamping frock technical field, concretely relates to a kind of secondary quenching clamping frock of conical sleeve ring. BACKGROUND

[0002] In recent years, wind power bearing selection gradually begins to be inclined to conical bearing, and size is larger and larger, and effective wall thickness is thicker and thicker. The carburized steel first needs to be sent to the pit-type heating furnace for heating and heat preservation in the secondary quenching process, and then the sleeve ring and the shelf are taken out from the pit-type furnace by hoisting. Two operators need to pull apart the previous heavy fixture. Due to the heaviness of the fixture, the weight of a single fixture leg is 100 kg, and it is difficult for two operators to pull apart the fixture. Then the fixture clamps the carburized steel conical outer ring. The sleeve ring is placed on the quenching mold by the row of hoist. After the mold upper cover is pressed tightly, secondary quenching is carried out. The key point in the whole process is that the carburized steel conical outer ring is taken out from the heating furnace and then put into the quenching tank. The whole air cooling time is 5-7 minutes. Since the surface of the sleeve ring is exposed to air for too long, the surface temperature decreases, which cannot meet the process requirements, so that the surface hardness of the outer ring is lower than the process requirements. Due to the taper problem of the conical outer ring, the surface temperature loss of the thin part is 10-20℃ more than that of the thick part, so that the cooling effect of the two sides is different after quenching, and the expansion and contraction quality of the outer diameter of the two sides is inconsistent.
