Description

A kind of reinforcing process of spheroidal graphite cast iron and finished product thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of thermal treatment process of spheroidal graphite cast iron, relate in particular to a kind of reinforcing process and finished product thereof of spheroidal graphite cast iron, specifically be applied to make the part such as spheroidal graphite cast iron rocking arm, tappet of engine.
Background technology
The surface intensified technique of spheroidal graphite cast iron part generally includes only and forms the compound of local chill, hard surfacing, nitriding, carbonitriding, surface rolling reinforcement and these technologies, quench as chill, fillet rolling and reinforcing or the like behind the ductile iron crankshaft carbonitriding, do not comprise carbonitriding technology, because carbonitriding technology is applied to the spheroidal graphite cast iron part usually to be considered to draw a snake and add feet to it---traditional understanding is thought: the spheroidal graphite cast iron part is carburizing or carbonitriding not, enough hardenabilitys are also arranged, simple hard surfacing is enough to improve its wear resistance.But in some field, need simultaneously on the small-sized complex structural member of resistance to marring, wear resistance, contact fatigue strength as engine rocker, tappet, air valve yoke and injector plate etc., handle without carbonitriding technology, and the spheroidal graphite cast iron part that direct quenching is handled is because the no compound layer in surface, crystal grain is thick, and its resistance to marring, wear resistance can not satisfy service requirements; Though there is compound layer on the surface of nitriding or carbonitriding spheroidal graphite cast iron part, its subsurface hardness is low, and anti-contact fatigue strength can not meet the demands; The chill machinability of local cold shock spheroidal graphite cast iron part is relatively poor, causes difficulty often for the machining of small-sized responsible parts such as engine rocker, air valve yoke.Comparatively speaking, the carbonitriding of spheroidal graphite cast iron part low temperature then can take into account performance requriements and process for machining performance requriementss such as resistance to marring, wear resistance, contact fatigue strength simultaneously, has certain advantage.
In addition, because the carbon content and the silicone content of spheroidal graphite cast iron are higher than soft steel and low-carbon alloy converted steel far away, therefore the decarburizing tendency of spheroidal graphite cast iron under heating condition is very big, and Heating temperature is high more, easy more decarburization, in case and spheroidal graphite cast iron decarburization, just form the Decarburized layer of pure ferrite tissue easily on the surface of spheroidal graphite cast iron part, this moment is if will eliminate this pure ferrite tissue, just must heat carburizing in the temperature more than 880 ℃, and then carry out carbonitriding again at 800-840 ℃, this has not only increased technology difficulty and cost greatly, and make and infiltration layer and the alligatoring of matrix quenching structure have reduced the part performance.
The Chinese patent Granted publication number is CN100513646C, Granted publication day is that the patent of invention on July 15th, 2009 discloses a kind of heat treatment process for automobile gear shifting box synchronizer gear sheath, this technology comprises: carbonitriding, press quench, cleaning, tempering, detection, when device fails, in the carbonitriding step, carburizing temperature is 780-850 ℃, and carbon potential is 0.5-1.0%, and the nitrogen add-on is 5-12m 3/ h, the methyl alcohol add-on is 4-7L/h, the propane add-on is 0.5-0.9m 3/ h, the ammonia add-on is 0-30L/h, though carburizing temperature that this patent process using is lower and corresponding carbon potential and carbonitriding atmosphere medium are so that control carbonitriding speed, thereby when guaranteeing during equipment failure, to be incubated for a long time, oxidation, decarburization or the infiltration layer that still can prevent the tooth cover parts are dark excessively, but the tissue that this patent technology forms is followed successively by high carbon martensite and residual austenite, middle carbon martensite, low carbon martensite, and because this patent technology is when carburizing temperature is low, carbon potential is lower, be carburizing temperature when being 800 ℃, carbon potential is 0.55 ± 0.05%; When carburizing temperature was 785 ℃, carbon potential was 0.55 ± 0.05%, thereby can't form the carbide bright layer on the surface of spheroidal graphite cast iron part, i.e. compound layer can't improve resistance to marring, wear resistance and the contact fatigue strength of spheroidal graphite cast iron part.In addition, this patent technology is not considered the strong decarburizing tendency of spheroidal graphite cast iron part in heat-processed, do not take to take precautions against accordingly technological measure yet, this carrying out for the carbonitriding technology of spheroidal graphite cast iron part is very unfavorable, when especially the cementing furnace of taking when carbonitriding was periodic cementing furnace such as forvacuum gas carbruizing furance, common open well formula or box gas carbruizing furance, what the taking of anti-decarburization technological measure showed was even more important.

A kind of finished product of reinforcing process of above-mentioned spheroidal graphite cast iron, the metallographic structure of described spheroidal graphite cast iron part finished product comprises top layer, sublevel and matrix successively, described top layer is the compound layer of granular or continuous distribution, thickness is 0.0025-0.005mm, described sublevel is latent needle-like martensite containing nitrogen, residual austenite and graphite, thickness is 0.04-0.10mm, and described matrix is fine acicular martensite, residual austenite and graphite.
The present invention takes the reason of carbonitriding technology to be to spheroidal graphite cast iron:
In the process of carbonitriding because carbon, nitride are separated out at original austenite subgrain boundary, crystal boundary or intracrystalline, stoped thick martensitic formation, thereby refinement crystal grain, refinement spheroidal graphite cast iron quenching top layer martensitic stucture; Because the C of spheroidal graphite cast iron, Si content are higher, during carbonitriding, C, N are little in the concentration gradient on top layer, carbonitriding temperature in addition is 800 ℃-840 ℃, with respect to 840-880 ℃ of general carbonitriding, temperature is lower, causes the spread coefficient of atom less, therefore C, N atom be easily at the surface enrichment of spheroidal graphite cast iron, thereby form the compound layer of granular or continuous distribution easily on the surface.
With respect to the spheroidal graphite cast iron part that direct quenching is handled, problem such as spheroidal graphite cast iron goods of the present invention have overcome the former surface and do not had compound layer, and martensitic stucture is thick, thus have better resistance to marring, wear resistance and contact fatigue strength.
With respect to the spheroidal graphite cast iron part of nitriding or carbonitriding processing, spheroidal graphite cast iron goods of the present invention have overcome the former time top layer and the low problem of matrix hardness, thereby have had better contact fatigue strength.
Spheroidal graphite cast iron part with respect to local cold shock reinforcement, spheroidal graphite cast iron goods of the present invention are before the mechanical workout moulding, surface hardness is low, therefore the mechanical processing technique performance is better, be applicable to complex-shaped more, the part that the position is many, area is big that needs reinforcement is as parts such as engine rocker, air valve yoke, tappets.
Therefore, the present invention has not only improved resistance to marring, the surface abrasion resistance of spheroidal graphite cast iron part, and has improved the contact fatigue strength of spheroidal graphite cast iron part, thereby has improved the performance of spheroidal graphite cast iron part, has enlarged its range of application, has saved production cost.
In addition,, inferior top layer and matrix are quenched to " bainite+residual austenite+graphite ", can further improve its toughness, then will obtain better use properties as carrying out the isothermal quenching complex intensifying after the spheroidal graphite cast iron carbonitriding.
The present invention must be rapidly heated before spheroidal graphite cast iron is carried out carbonitriding technology and the deflated cause description is as follows fast:
At first, because the carbon content and the silicone content of spheroidal graphite cast iron are higher than soft steel and low-carbon alloy converted steel far away, decarburizing tendency when therefore spheroidal graphite cast iron heats is very big, and Heating temperature is high more, easy more decarburization, when the spheroidal graphite cast iron part heats in " ferritic-austenitic " two-phase matrix temperature range, the easier Decarburized layer that forms the pure ferrite tissue on the surface of spheroidal graphite cast iron part, this moment is if will eliminate this layer tissue, just must be in the heating of the temperature more than 880 ℃ carburizing, and then carrying out carbonitriding again at 800-840 ℃, this will cause microstructure coarsening, and this has increased technology difficulty and cost greatly.
Therefore the carbonitriding technology of spheroidal graphite cast iron is compared with the carbon nitrogen technology of soft steel part, one of its key distinction on working method for the former need prevent carbon potential recover before part decarburization, particularly decarburization entirely.
