Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tantalum metal processing technology, and in particular to a tantalum metal billet rolling equipment. Background Technology
[0002] Tantalum metal includes tantalum and tantalum alloys. The rolling of tantalum billets is a niche metal processing activity, lacking mature, dedicated large-scale rolling equipment; traditional two-roll mills are commonly used. Operators sequentially feed the billet into multiple passes on the rolls to complete multiple rolling runs. Sometimes, incorrectly feeding the billet into the passes can lead to excessive processing rates per pass, damaging the mill or the material. Two-roll mill rolling is inefficient, labor-intensive, and poses safety risks to equipment and materials. It is difficult to automate or digitize, and it generates significant environmental pollution such as noise and fumes. Traditional two-roll mills have multiple pass slots forming a pass system. The operation requires two people: one person feeds the metal billet from the mill feed end into the passes, and the other person returns the billet from the mill discharge end to the feed end, repeating this unidirectional rolling process multiple times. This method is inefficient, labor-intensive, and lacks safety. Utility Model Content

[0034] The tantalum metal billet rolling equipment of this embodiment includes a first frame 11, a mounting plate 111, a second frame 12, a first cylinder 21 and a second cylinder 22, a third cylinder 23 and a fourth cylinder 24, a first cylindrical roll 31 and a second cylindrical roll 32, and a rolling device. The mounting plate 111 is rotatably mounted relative to the first frame 11. The first cylinder 21 and the second cylinder 22 are arranged opposite each other and spaced apart in the vertical direction, and both the first cylinder 21 and the second cylinder 22 are hinged relative to the second frame 12. The third cylinder 23 and the fourth cylinder 24 are arranged opposite each other and spaced apart in the horizontal direction, and both the third cylinder 23 and the fourth cylinder 24 are hinged relative to the second frame 12. The first cylindrical roll 31 and the second cylindrical roll 32 are arranged opposite each other and spaced apart in the horizontal direction, and both the first cylindrical roll 31 and the second cylindrical roll 32 are hinged to the second frame 12.
[0035] The mounting plate 111, the second frame 12, the first cylinder 21, the first cylindrical roll 31, and the rolling device are arranged sequentially along the direction of movement of the tantalum metal billet. The mounting plate 111 is used to place the tantalum metal billet. After the tantalum metal billet 100 is placed on the mounting plate, during the rolling of the tantalum metal billet, if... Figure 1 As shown, a strip-shaped billet is drawn from the tantalum metal billet 100 on the mounting plate, then passes through the first cylinder 21 and the second cylinder 22, the first cylindrical roll 31 and the second cylindrical roll 32, and finally passes through the rolling mill for rolling. The direction of movement of the tantalum metal billet is also the direction in which the strip-shaped billet drawn from the mounting plate passes sequentially through the first cylinder 21 and the second cylinder 22, the first cylindrical roll 31 and the second cylindrical roll 32, and the rolling mill. Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the axis of the first cylinder 21 is coaxial with the axis of its hinge to the second frame 12; the axis of the second cylinder 22 is coaxial with the axis of its hinge to the second frame 12; the axis of the first cylinder 21 is parallel to the axis of the second cylinder 22; the axis of the third cylinder 23 is coaxial with the axis of its hinge to the second frame 12; the axis of the fourth cylinder 24 is coaxial with the axis of its hinge to the second frame 12; the axes of the third cylinder 23 and the fourth cylinder 24 are parallel but not parallel to the axis of the first cylinder 21. In the embodiment shown, the axis of the first cylinder is horizontal, and the axis of the third cylinder is vertical. The axis of the first cylindrical roller 31 and the axis of its hinge to the second frame 12 are coaxial and both are in the vertical direction. The axis of the second cylindrical roller 32 and the axis of its hinge to the second frame 12 are coaxial and both are in the vertical direction. The outer circumferential surfaces of the first cylindrical roller 31 and the second cylindrical roller 32 are respectively provided with a first annular groove 311 and a second annular groove for the passage of tantalum metal billet. The first annular groove 311 and the second annular groove overlap or intersect in the vertical direction. In the embodiment shown in the figure, the first annular groove 311 and the second annular groove are symmetrical in shape and overlap in the vertical direction. Thus, during rolling, the first cylinder 21, the second cylinder 22, and the third cylinder 23 and the fourth cylinder 24, which are not parallel to their axes, guide the strip-shaped tantalum metal billet from two different directions. The strip-shaped tantalum metal billet then passes through the first annular groove 311 and the second annular groove, which overlap or intersect in the vertical direction. The first annular groove and the second annular groove can provide further stabilizing guidance for the strip-shaped tantalum metal billet, thereby enabling the tantalum metal billet to enter the rolling mill stably and smoothly, ensuring the rolling effect. The rolling mill includes multiple roll groups arranged sequentially along the movement direction of the tantalum metal billet. The multiple roll groups include multiple horizontal roll groups 61 and vertical roll groups 62 arranged alternately. The horizontal roll group 61 includes a first roll 611 and a second roll 612 with the rotation axis in the horizontal direction, and the vertical roll group 62 includes a third roll and a fourth roll with the rotation axis in the vertical direction. The tantalum metal billet is continuously rolled by passing through the horizontal roll group 61 and the vertical roll group 62. The setting of the horizontal roll group and the vertical roll group can make the tantalum metal billet more uniformly stressed during rolling, thereby improving the rolling quality.
[0036] The tantalum metal billet rolling equipment of this embodiment, by setting a rotatable mounting plate 111 and a rolling device with alternating horizontal roll groups 61 and vertical roll groups 62, can continuously and effectively roll tantalum metal billets with high rolling efficiency. Simultaneously, by setting structures such as a first cylinder 21, a second cylinder 22, a third cylinder 23, a fourth cylinder 24, a first cylindrical roll 31, and a second cylindrical roll 32 in front of the rolling device, the tantalum metal billet can be stably and reliably introduced into the rolling device. Utilizing the alternating horizontal roll groups 61 and vertical roll groups 62 of the rolling device, high-quality rolling of the tantalum metal billet can be achieved.
[0037] In some embodiments, the grooves of multiple adjacent roll groups form a rhombic-square pass system. The grooves of two rolls in a roll group form a pass, and the shape of the pass determines the shape and size of the cross-section of the metal passing through the two rolls. The passes of multiple roll groups thus form a pass system. A rhombic-square pass system is a pass system in rolling processes, which is rhomboid or approximately rhomboid in shape and is distributed on specific rolling passes to form a pass system combination.
[0038] In some embodiments, the horizontal roll group 61 further includes a first servo motor and a second servo motor respectively driven and connected to the first roll 611 and the second roll 612, and the vertical roll group 62 further includes a third servo motor and a fourth servo motor respectively driven and connected to the third roll and the fourth roll. Each roll in each pass of the roll group is controlled by a servo motor. The rolling status of the equipment is displayed on the operation panel, and digital settings and adjustments can be made quickly and accurately to control the speed of each roll, thereby adjusting the linear velocity between rolling passes and ensuring that the speed of each roll during the rolling process is consistent with the plastic deformation flow velocity of the rolled billet.
[0039] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 9 As shown, to facilitate the smooth entry of the tantalum metal billet into the rolling groove of the next rolling mill after being rolled by the rolling mill group, the rolling apparatus also includes a first guide component 5 disposed between adjacent rolling mill groups. The first guide component 5 includes a first hole 51 and a second hole 52 that are interconnected for the passage of the tantalum metal billet. Along the moving direction of the tantalum metal billet, the first hole 51 is located upstream of the second hole 52, and the cross-sectional area of the first hole 51 gradually decreases along the moving direction of the tantalum metal billet. The second hole 52 is a straight hole. The structure of the first hole 51 allows for effective and gradual adjustment of the position of the tantalum metal billet, and the second hole 52 allows for precise fixation of the adjusted position of the tantalum metal billet, thereby ensuring accurate entry into the next rolling mill group for effective rolling.
[0040] In some embodiments, to ensure that the tantalum billet enters the groove of the next roll set more accurately, the rolling apparatus further includes a third stand 13 and a second guide device for the passage of the tantalum billet located between adjacent roll sets. The second guide device includes a third cylindrical roll and a fourth cylindrical roll 23, which are arranged horizontally at intervals and hinged to and opposite to the third stand 13. The axis of the third cylindrical roll and its hinged axis to the third stand 13 are coaxial and both are vertical. The axis of the fourth cylindrical roll 23 and its hinged axis to the third stand 13 are coaxial and both are vertical. Between two adjacent roll sets, along the direction of movement of the tantalum billet, the second guide device is located downstream of the first guide device. The arrangement of the third cylindrical roll and the fourth cylindrical roll 23 can better mitigate the fluctuations of the tantalum billet, making the position of the tantalum billet more stable and further improving the rolling quality.
[0041] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the tantalum metal billet rolling equipment also includes a take-up device 4 for taking up the tantalum metal billet after it has passed through the rolling device. The take-up device 4 includes a take-up drum, which includes a shrinkage section 42 and an inlet section 41 for entering the tantalum metal billet. The diameter of the outer circumference of the take-up drum gradually decreases along the axial direction from the inlet section 41 to the shrinkage section 42. The take-up drum also includes a fixing part 43 for fixing the free end of the tantalum metal billet. The fixing part 43 is close to the shrinkage section 42 relative to the inlet section 41. After rolling, the tantalum metal billet enters the take-up device from the inlet section 41. After being wound around the outer circumference of the inlet section 41, the free end of the tantalum metal billet is fixed to the fixing part 43. Then, as the take-up drum rotates, the length of the tantalum metal billet segment entering the take-up drum becomes longer and longer. Since the diameter of the outer circumference of the take-up drum in this embodiment gradually decreases along the axial direction from the inlet section 41 to the shrinkage section 42, the tantalum metal billet segments that enter the inlet section 41 later will squeeze the tantalum metal billet segments that enter the inlet section 41 earlier, causing the tantalum metal billet segments to gradually gather towards the shrinkage section 42, thereby realizing the automatic take-up and arrangement of the tantalum metal billet.
[0042] In some embodiments, the fixing part 43 includes a fixing hole provided on the end of the take-up device 4. By providing a fixing hole, the tantalum metal blank can be hooked into the fixing hole by simply bending the free end of the tantalum metal blank, thus quickly connecting the tantalum metal blank to the fixing part.
[0043] In some embodiments, a method for rolling a tantalum metal billet using any of the above-described tantalum metal billet rolling equipment is also disclosed, comprising: placing the tantalum metal billet on a mounting plate 111; passing the tantalum metal billet through the gap between the first cylinder 21 and the second cylinder 22 and through the gap between the third cylinder 23 and the fourth cylinder 24, and then through the gap between the first annular groove 311 of the first cylindrical roll 31 and the second annular groove of the second cylindrical roll 32; and then rolling the tantalum metal billet using the first roll 611 and the second roll 612 of the horizontal roll group 61 and the third roll and the fourth roll of the vertical roll group 62.
[0044] In some embodiments, the tantalum metal billet rolling equipment further includes a take-up device 4 for taking up the tantalum metal billet after it has passed through the rolling device. The take-up device 4 has a take-up drum, which includes a shrinkage section 42 and an inlet section 41 for entering the tantalum metal billet. The diameter of the outer peripheral surface of the take-up drum gradually decreases along the axial direction from the inlet section 41 to the shrinkage section 42. The take-up drum also includes a fixing part 43 for fixing the free end of the tantalum metal billet. The fixing part 43 is close to the shrinkage section 42 relative to the inlet section 41. The rolling method of the tantalum metal billet further includes: feeding the tantalum metal billet after it has passed through the rolling device into the inlet section 41 of the take-up drum, and after the inlet section 41 is wound around the outer peripheral surface of the inlet section 41 once, fixing the free end of the tantalum metal billet to the fixing part 43, and then rotating the take-up drum to take up the tantalum metal billet.
[0045] In some embodiments, the method further includes: selecting tantalum alloy bars and sintering or annealing them to eliminate processing stress, thereby forming a tantalum metal billet; rolling the tantalum metal billet using the first roll 611 and the second roll 612 of the horizontal roll group 61 and the third roll and the fourth roll of the vertical roll group 62 includes: the rolling apparatus includes four or more roll groups, the initial roll groups of the rolling apparatus have grooves forming a rhombic-square hole system, the tantalum metal billet passes through the grooves of the initial roll groups and the rolls of the roll groups are driven by servo motors to perform a multi-pass cold rolling process on the tantalum metal billet, and the last two roll groups of the rolling apparatus have grooves forming an elliptical-circular hole system, the tantalum metal billet finally passes through the grooves of the last two roll groups.
[0046] In some embodiments, the rolling mill performs 15-19 rolling passes on the metal billet, with a processing rate of 8%-15% per pass, resulting in a total processing rate of 80%-95% for the tantalum metal billet. Processing rate: This is an indicator that measures the degree of deformation of a material during processing. In metal processing and other fields, the processing rate is usually expressed as the ratio of the dimensional change of the material before and after processing to the original size. A higher processing rate means that the material has undergone a greater degree of deformation, but an excessively high processing rate may lead to changes in material properties, defects, and other problems.
[0047] In some embodiments, the rolling speed of the rolling device on the metal billet is 10 to 100 m / min, and the linear velocity of the rolls in the roll set is greater than the linear velocity of the tantalum metal billet.
[0048] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and not to limit it; although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the specific implementation of this utility model or equivalent substitutions can be made to some technical features without departing from the spirit of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications and substitutions should be covered within the scope of the technical solution claimed by this utility model.
