Description

The heat treating method of aluminium alloy element and equipment thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of heat treating method of aluminium alloy element, comprise the preageing heat treatment step, and relate to the equipment that is used for this method.
Background technology
Be used in by the aluminium alloy element of heat treatable aluminium alloy manufacturing and relate in relative high strength, high tenacity and the corrosion proof multiple application, in using as aircraft fuselage, automobile-used member and other.
In order to make aluminium alloy element, for example, sheet material or plate, aluminium alloy or direct chill casting are ingot casting, perhaps continuous casting is thick ribbon form, then with its hot rolling and/or cold rolling one-tenth desired thickness.Aluminium alloy element experiences solution heat treatment then.Solution heat treatment relates to the extremely suitable high temperature (as 450-580 ℃) of METAL HEATING PROCESS, thereby all soluble alloy compositions are dissolved in the sosoloid, and described alloy compositions is separated out from mother metal in hot rolling and/or cold-rolled process.For these components are remained in the soluble solids, metal is rapidly quenched to envrionment temperature, to produce supersaturated solid solution.Usually, pass through metal then in room temperature, perhaps remain on higher temperature and come acceleration effect, keep for some time to make ageing of metal sclerosis or precipitation hardening, thereby make the spontaneous formation of tiny precipitate by the diffusion of atom in supersaturated solid solution, they form small druse or " district " thus.
Also know, also can by make aluminium alloy element after quenching once more thermal treatment further improve the characteristic of aluminium alloy element.In this so-called " preageing " heat treatment process, some atoms in the supersaturated solid solution come out from crystalline network, and form small druse and form used crystal seed.This plays the effect that makes the microstructure stabilization.
US-3135633 has disclosed this preageing or " stabilization " thermal treatment, to improve the mechanical characteristics of Aludur.In this technology, forged alloy product is moved through first stove continuously, so that relevant alloying element enters sosoloid, move it by quenching chamber then, and enter second stove, handle with the preageing that stands stabilization.Wherein mention, the timed interval between quenching and the preageing should be less than 10 minutes.In order to allow rapidly alloy is heated up, after quenching, begin several minutes after, heat second stove by forced hot air circulation.
In EP-0805879-B1, also narrated preageing thermal treatment.In the method that discloses, metal is heated directly to 100 to 300 ℃ of peak temperatures in the scope, preferably in 130 to 270 ℃ scope, and keeps the very short residence time at this peak temperature, then directly with under its outlet temperature that is cooled to stipulate.Therefore this processing is called temperature " spike " in this area, this is because the temperature that is used for this technology is similar to trilateral, point or blunt a little spike substantially to the graphic representation of time.This processing it is said the ductility that can improve the AA6xxx series alloy at the T4 state, makes baking vanish effect maximum simultaneously.
In EP-0480402-A1, disclosed and related to the heat treated another kind of technology of preageing.This already known processes relates to after solution heat treatment aluminium alloy plate is quenched, allows still to be less than 60 minutes at the room temperature holding plate, and at 50-150 ℃ of holding plate 10-500 minute.
EP-0679199-A1 has also disclosed between quenching after the solution heat treatment and timeliness step preageing or the pre-tempering step at 70 to 150 ℃.
Summary of the invention
The objective of the invention is further to improve the heat treating method of aluminium alloy element, so that improve the characteristic of the finished product.
Another object of the present invention is to simplify the required equipment of thermal treatment of carrying out, and this thermal treatment particularly solution heat treatment preageing is afterwards handled.
The invention solves one or more above-mentioned purposes.In this specification sheets, narrate and describe in detail preferred embodiment.
As described below, in addition to another pointed out, all alloy nomenclatures and Status Name reference publish " the ABAL's title in aluminium standard, data and registration record " by ABAL.
According to one aspect of the present invention, a kind of heat treating method to aluminium alloy element with major surfaces is provided, it is as follows successively that the method comprising the steps of: a) aluminium alloy element is carried out solution heat treatment, b) preferably by jet quenching or be immersed in water or other quenchants in immerseable quench, aluminium alloy element is quenched, and c) in the preageing heat treatment step to the aluminium alloy element reheat after quenching, and be attached on the major surfaces of hot-plate by the major surfaces with aluminium alloy element thus, carry out preageing thermal treatment.
The present invention is based on following understanding, that is, if carry out preageing thermal treatment after the quenching step when the solution heat treatment of aluminium alloy element finishes, this preageing thermal treatment is effective especially, with the more stable microtexture of acquisition aluminium alloy element, and need not carry out the natural aging sclerosis of essence.More preferably, preageing thermal treatment is carried out in hour of quenching step, and time lag is reduced to about several minutes usually even may is several seconds.For this reason, carry out thermal treatment and will can not produce desired result in stove, this is because aluminium alloy element must be moved in the stove, and will need for some time to reach temperature required.Therefore the present invention proposes not use stove to come preageing to handle the method for aluminium alloy element, carries out in the outside of any stove because preageing is handled.Replace stove, aluminium alloy element is held near hot-plate or is attached to hot-plate, and is promptly heated thus, thereby realizes the preageing processing.Can reach the maximum prefetch aging temp in several minutes, this is because heat passes to aluminium alloy element from hot-plate.Hot-plate preferably had been heated to temperature required before the preageing step.
The aluminium alloy element of carrying out this method is rolled products preferably, normally thickness thin plate or the sheet of 15mm at the most, and preferred thickness 1.5 in the scope of 6mm.
This method can be used for handling heat treatable aluminium alloy, particularly the aluminium alloy of those AA6xxx, AA2xxx or AA7xxx series.Most preferred, aluminium alloy element is selected from the group of being made up of AA6013, AA6056, AA6011, AA6016, AA2024, AA2524, AA2219, AA7074, AA7075, AA7050 and AA7055.
Hot-plate is also preferably made by aluminium alloy, and its thermal capacity is big, and fusing point is higher than heat treated aluminium alloy element.Especially, can use the aluminium alloy of AA5xxx series as AA5026 and AA3xxx series.In this embodiment, the thickness of hot-plate is the thickness of aluminium alloy element at least.The thickness that those skilled in the art can optimize hot-plate according to the thickness of aluminium alloy element and required preageing treatment temp and time.
In another embodiment, hot-plate is formed from steel.

Preferably, in these three steps of solution heat treatment, quenching and preageing, the major surfaces that keeps hot-plate and aluminium alloy element mutually near.This just means, can be by only spraying or cooling comes quench member from a side.Yet the advantage of doing like this is, by from the heat flow of unhardened hot-plate to aluminium alloy element, this aluminium alloy element will be reheated after having finished immediately quenching, to realize the preageing processing.
Replacedly, aluminium sheet can quench in both sides, and it can place on the hot-plate, handles to realize required preageing.
Replacedly, hot-plate can place the used stove of solution heat treatment before the solution heat treatment aluminium alloy element.In case it is heated, in the solution heat treatment and quenching process of aluminium alloy element, hot-plate can remain near the quenching device.Because the top temperature that preageing is handled is usually less than the temperature of solution heat treatment, even advantageously make hot-plate before receiving aluminium alloy element, cool off.After quenching, on the preferred referred hot-plate of aluminium alloy element.
Another replaceable scheme relates to uses the electrically heated hot-plate, for example, and by means of the heater coil that places hot-plate inside.In this embodiment, preferably before carrying out preageing thermal treatment, hot-plate is heated to required preageing temperature.
Be used for ways customary that major surfaces with aluminium alloy element remains close to the major surfaces of hot-plate and be with one on another horizontal positioned.Yet aluminium alloy element and the hot-plate vertically layout of alignment are not got rid of from protection domain yet.
For the surface of protecting aluminium alloy element and guarantee little gap between hot-plate and aluminium alloy element, between each aluminium alloy element and each hot-plate, protective layer is set, so that they are attached to together.The preferred thick 5mm that reaches of this layer, the about 2mm of thickness usually, and make by the cloth or the net of lagging material, described lagging material for example is glass fabric, pottery, glass wool, mineral wool, perhaps for lesser temps, adopts polymer fabrics.The use of protective layer also causes the reheat of aluminium alloy element that short time lag is arranged, and this just causes in hardening step, allows that aluminium alloy element was cooled fast to below 100 ℃ be heated with the thermal treatment of realization preageing from hot-plate before.
Also can use more than a hot-plate.In a preferred embodiment, aluminium alloy element in the preageing step retaining clip between two hot-plates.This layout plays the effect of this aluminium alloy element of aligning, does not therefore just need further smoothing or stretched operation.
According to alternative embodiment, by two aluminium alloy elements being kept the two opposite sides near a hot-plate, these two aluminium alloy elements of thermal treatment simultaneously.
Can carry out according to preageing of the present invention and handle making by means of artificial aging before aluminium alloy element reaches final state.Common final state is from by the state of selecting the group that comprises T6, T79, T78, T77, T74, T73 and T8.By way of example, suitable T73 state will be the T7351 state, and suitable T74 state will be the T7451 state.
In one embodiment, after preageing is handled and finally before the ageing treatment, aluminium alloy element selectively stretches or compresses or other cold working, thereby eliminates stress or improve mechanical characteristics, for example, sheet or light sheet products is smoothed.Preferably, stretched operation comprises and is no more than 8% of length before the stretched operation, preferably in the scope of 1-5%.Especially, the aluminium alloy element of AA6xxx and AA2xxx series alloy also can be subjected to cold rolling manipulation, and cold rolling attenuate amount is in up to 20% scope, thus the mechanical characteristics that improvement can get in final as-heat-treated condition.
In yet another aspect, the present invention relates to a kind of according to product that method of the present invention obtained.These the finished product for example can be used for the shell of airframe.
The present invention provides a kind of equipment of heat-treatable aluminum alloy member in yet another aspect, it comprises: a) solution heat treatment furnace, b) quench station, c) hot-plate, it is used for being attached to by the major surfaces with aluminium alloy element the major surfaces of hot-plate, this aluminium alloy element of reheat in the preageing heat treatment step.The advantage of this equipment is that it does not need second used stove of preageing thermal treatment.
