Description

The cracking connecting-rod steel
Technical field
The present invention relates to be fit to be used to the steel of manufacturing as the employed connecting rod of parts such as motor car engine (being designated hereinafter simply as " connecting rod (con rod) ").
Background technology
In the oil engine of petrol motor and diesel engine etc., as to being connected between piston and the bent axle, the to-and-fro movement of piston passed to bent axle and convert the parts that rotatablely move to use connecting rod.Connecting rod is to have the parts that are used to be assembled to the rotund communicating pores on the bent axle, and in order to make its assembling and the dismounting when keeping in repair easy, the constituted mode of communicating pores part is for separating two nearly semicircles of (cutting apart) one-tenth.Directly be connected a side with piston among the isolating connecting rod and be called as con-rod only, all the other are called connecting rod cap.
Such connecting rod can be made in the following way: after for example respectively con-rod only and connecting rod cap being carried out forge hot, implement the processing on junction surface (mating face) again by cutting.Also have in the case,, also can implement steady brace (knock pin) processing as required for anti-sliding stop.But if implement this processing, then except output (yield quantity) reduction of material, also to go through a large amount of operations, therefore the such problem of cost rising is arranged.
Therefore practiced method is, one forge hot connecting rod, after implementing mechanical workout (communicating pores that is used to be assembled on the bent axle forms processing (perforate processing) and bolt hole processing etc.), carry out cold cracking and separate (cracking processing (fracture splittingprocess)) so that communicating pores partly becomes the mode of two nearly semicircles, clamp bent axle and chimeric surface of fracture (fracture surface) at last, assemble with bolted.According to this method, do not need surface of fracture is implemented the processing on the junction surface of being undertaken by cutting.
In addition, improving requirement for connecting rod with the machinability (machinability) of steel increases.But existing side by side of machinability and cracking performance is generally very difficult.Consider to reduce alloying constituent for machinability is improved, reduce the hardness of steel, but if reduce alloying constituent, then the ductility of steel improves, cracking performance reduces.Both are in the relation of these disappear those long (trade-off), are difficult to exist side by side.
For example, as the connecting rod steel of cracking performance excellence, known have a patent documentation 1~3.Patent documentation 1 proposes, the amount of control Si, V, P, N, Al, Ti, Nb, N, B etc. promotes brittle rupture (brittle fracture), and patent documentation 2 proposes, and the amount of control Si, V, P etc. promotes brittle rupture, patent documentation 3 proposes, and the amount of control Al, N etc. promotes brittle rupture.These patent documentations 1~3 are also pointed out in addition, then can promote brittle rupture if add Ti.But these connecting rods are poor with the steel machinability.For example with regard to patent documentation 1, in an embodiment, C measures than more than 0.5%, and alloying elements such as V and Cr are used superfluously.In addition, when the content of C etc. is suppressed, otherwise to use Ti to surpass 0.10%, guarantee cracking performance thus.In addition, patent documentation 2 and 3 uses Ti also to surpass 0.10% in an embodiment, and machinability is poor.

Summary of the invention
The present invention is conceived to above-mentioned situation and does, and its purpose is, a kind of cracking connecting-rod steel that cracking performance and machinability are existed side by side is provided.
In C amount is 0.25~0.5% steel, if do not add alloying element such as Ti, cracking performance extreme difference (with reference to the example of the Ti amount 0.002% of Fig. 1) then.Improve cracking performance for the fragility that improves steel, the interpolation of alloying element is (Ti with reference to Fig. 1 measures 0.125% example) effectively.But if heavy addition Ti, then machinability reduces.If consider from prior art, then cracking performance and machinability are in this those long relations that disappear, and the concrete countermeasure that is used to both are existed side by side does not propose as yet.
Present inventors' research with keen determination repeatedly in order to solve aforementioned problems, it found that, viewpoint from effective Ti (not forming the Ti of nitride), when arrangement Ti amount, effective Ti of denier just can make cracking performance be increased sharply, thereafter effect is saturated immediately, on the other hand, the reduction of machinability is mild, when effective Ti measured (f value) denier, machinability can reduce (with reference to Fig. 2) hardly, therefore measured the viewpoint of (f value) from effective Ti, if control Ti measures then cracking performance and machinability are existed side by side (with reference to Fig. 1), thereby finishes the present invention.

Connecting rod of the present invention is formed as mentioned above with the basal component of steel, and surplus comes down to iron.But the unavoidable impurities that allows certainly to sneak into because of the situation of raw material, goods and materials, producing apparatus etc. is included in the steel.Connecting rod steel of the present invention in addition also can contain following arbitrary element as required.
That selects the group who is constituted below Zr:0.15%, below the Ca:0.005%, below the Mg:0.005%, below the Te:0.1%, below the REM:0.3% is at least a
Zr, Ca, Mg, Te and REM make sulfide-based inclusion (MnS etc.) balling, are to improving the useful element of cracking performance, can making in the steel as required and contain.The particularly easy more reduction of the many more cracking performances of Mn therefore in order to do one's utmost to avoid its influence, recommends to add Zr, Ca, Mg, Te or REM etc.In order to give full play to this effect, the Zr amount is preferably more than 0.01%, more preferably more than 0.05%, the Ca amount is preferably more than 0.0001%, more preferably more than 0.001%, the Mg amount is preferably more than 0.0001%, more preferably more than 0.001%, the Te amount is preferably more than 0.0001%, more preferably is more than 0.001%, the REM amount is preferably more than 0.0001%, more preferably more than 0.001%.
But the content of these elements is too much, and its effect is full, and causes cost and rise.In addition, if the Zr amount is superfluous, then machinability reduces.On the other hand, if Ca measures, Mg measures, Te measures surplus, then oxide based inclusion increases, and the fatigue strength of steel reduces.When therefore containing these elements, stipulate its upper limit in the above-described manner.The Zr amount more preferably (is preferably below 0.12%) below 0.13% especially, the Ca amount more preferably (is preferably below 0.003%) below 0.004% especially, the Mg amount more preferably (is preferably below 0.003%) below 0.004% especially, the Te amount more preferably (is preferably below 0.03%) below 0.05% especially, and the REM amount more preferably (is preferably below 0.05%) below 0.1% especially.Also have, Zr, Ca, Mg, Te and REM can distinguish interpolation separately, also can make up interpolation.
At least one that Al:0.05% is following and Nb:0.05% is following
Al, Nb are being effective elements aspect deoxidation and the grain refining (grain refining), help intensity to improve.In order to bring into play this effect fully, the Al amount is preferably and surpasses 0.01%, and more preferably more than 0.02%, the Nb amount is preferably more than 0.01%, more preferably more than 0.02%.Its effect also is saturated but add too much, therefore stipulates its upper limit in the above described manner.The Al amount more preferably (is preferably below 0.035%) below 0.04% especially, and the Nb amount more preferably (is preferably below 0.040%) below 0.045% especially.Also have,, the situation of adding Ca in steel is arranged in the present invention as above-mentioned.If add Ca, then cast gate stops up easily, and when therefore adding Ca, the Al amount is preferably below 0.01%, more preferably below 0.007%.
That selects the group who is constituted below Cu:1.0%, below the Ni:1.0%, below the Mo:1.0% is at least a
Cu, Ni and Mo are the elements that helps the intensity raising of steel, can make in the steel as required and contain.In order to give full play to its effect, the Cu amount is preferably more than 0.01%, more preferably is more than 0.05%, and the Ni amount is preferably more than 0.01%, more preferably is more than 0.1%, and the Mo amount is preferably more than 0.01%, more preferably more than 0.1%.But if the Cu amount is superfluous, flaw (mark) takes place in the steel surface when then making.In addition, Ni amount too much its effect also is saturated, and superfluous interpolation can cause cost and rise.In addition, if the Mo amount is superfluous, then the machinability of steel reduces.When therefore containing these elements, stipulate its upper limit in the above described manner.More preferably below 0.5%, more preferably below 0.5%, Mo measures more preferably below 0.7% the Ni amount Cu amount.
Below the Bi:0.1%
Bi is the element that helps machinability to improve.In order to bring into play its effect fully, the Bi amount is preferably more than 0.001%, more preferably more than 0.01%.But the addition of Bi too much its effect also is full, therefore stipulates its upper limit in the above described manner.The Bi amount is more preferably below 0.08%.
And the invention is characterized in that steel is formed modulation (draw up) after described scope, and suitably control effective Ti amount (f value).So-called effectively Ti amount, the meaning are to deduct the remaining Ti amount of TiN during the Ti from steel measures, and the situation that claims the f value is also arranged in this manual.From the viewpoint arrangement cracking performance of effective Ti amount, then effective Ti of denier just can make cracking performance be increased sharply, and effect is saturated immediately thereafter.On the other hand, the reduction of machinability is mild, and when effective Ti measured (f value) denier, machinability can reduce hardly.Therefore, need in the scope, will guarantee as far as possible that the Ti that cracking performance is increased sharply needed effective Ti amount (f value) is used, and can improve cracking performance and machinability both sides MIN.
Effectively Ti amount (f value) is provided by following formula (1).In order positively to improve cracking performance, effectively Ti amount (f value) is more than 0.003, is preferably more than 0.005, more preferably more than 0.008.But if effectively Ti amount (f value) becomes big, then the addition of Ti increases, and machinability reduces easily.Therefore effectively Ti amount (f value) is preferably below 0.04, more preferably below 0.02, is preferably below 0.015 especially.
f=[Ti]-[N]×48/14?…?(1)
[in the formula, [Ti] and [N] represents Ti in the steel and the content (quality %) of N respectively.]
In most preferred mode, in the described lower value that positively satisfies effective Ti amount (f value), guarantee on the basis of cracking performance, be absorbed in the upper limit that effective Ti measures Ti content in the upper limit of (f value) and the steel as far as possible.So just, can both positively improve cracking performance, can make machinability reach the highest again.When effectively Ti content was minimum in Ti amount (f value) and the steel, effectively Ti amount (f value) was below 0.015, and Ti content is below 0.06% in the steel.
In addition, with in the steel, need reduce the long-width ratio of sulfide-based inclusion (for example MnS etc.) at connecting rod of the present invention.Sulfide-based inclusion through rolling and forge hot meeting to rolling direction with forge direction ductility.If the sulfide-based inclusion of this extension exists vertical (longitudinaldirection is extending on the vertical direction with respect to cracking face) when the cracking of steel, then along with the progress of crackle, peel off between sulfide-based inclusion and the metallic matrix, the mitigation of stress takes place.Consequently, brittle fracture is hindered, and toughness ductility value improves, the reduction that brings cracking performance.With respect to this, so suppress the extension of sulfide-based inclusion, dwindle long-width ratio and make it balling, then vertically during cracking, the stress of the crackle front end that takes place at the periphery of sulfide-based inclusion increases, and brittle fracture obtains promoting.Consequently can reduce amount of plastic deformation, the cracking performance of steel improves.In addition, to improve effect be that 1 μ m obtains performance when above at the width of sulfide-based inclusion to the cracking performance that brings of the balling of this sulfide-based inclusion.If the width of sulfide-based inclusion is too small, then sulfide-based inclusion self fracture can not promote the brittle fracture of steel.
If performance is used to bring into play size and the form that such cracking performance improves the sulfide of effect quantitatively, then be as follows, promptly in steel of the present invention, in the vertical section of the position of distance steel surface D/4 (D is the thickness or the diameter of steel), the every 1mm of sulfide-based inclusion that wide 1 μ m is above 2Exist more than 100, the arithmetical av (arithmetic average, mean aspect ratio) of the mean aspect ratio (length/width) of the sulfide-based inclusion that this wide 1 μ m is above is below 15.
Mean aspect ratio is preferably below 10, more preferably below 8, is preferably below 6 especially.Mean aspect ratio is preferred near 1 more more, and lower limit is not particularly limited, and can be (or more than 3) more than 2.
The every 1mm of number of the sulfide-based inclusion that wide 1 μ m is above 2Be preferably more than 300, more preferably more than 400.But many if the number of sulfide-based inclusion becomes, then be easy to generate the disadvantage of crackle etc. when rolling and during forge hot.Therefore recommend the above every 1mm of sulfide-based inclusion of wide 1 μ m 2Be below 4000.Preferred every 1mm 2Be below 3000, more preferably below 2500.
Also have, the what is called among the present invention " sulfide-based inclusion " mainly is meant MnS, but also comprises other sulfide and complex sulfide (complex sulfide).The value of the width of sulfide-based inclusion and mean aspect ratio (length/width) and number thereof in addition is in the vertical section of the position of distance steel surface D/4 (D is the thickness or the diameter of steel), with 1000 times observation multiplying powers to 1mm 2Field of view carry out observation by light microscope and the value of trying to achieve.
Also have, suitably set rolling condition according to the addition of Mn, S and inclusion balling element (Zr, Ca, Mg, Te and REM etc.), can be in specialized range with the size of sulfide-based inclusion and morphology Control.With regard to rolling condition, recommend to select rolling temperature since the scope more than 1000 ℃, select rolling end temp from the scope more than 850 ℃.Improve rolling beginning temperature and rolling end temp, the long-width ratio of sulfide-based inclusion is easy more to diminish, satisfy prescribed value easily more, in addition, because sulfide-based inclusion serves as that nuclear is separated out with the precipitate of the Ti of TiC and TiN etc. easily, so when steel contained Ti, the sulfide-based inclusion that long-width ratio is little was separated out in a large number.
