Description

For the production of the steel of the part of track, track crossing and switch and the method for producing described part
The present invention relates to for the production of the forged steel of the part of track crossing and switch and relate to the method for the production of described part.
Switch and crossing (S & C) are the parts of rail system, and in track circuit, in use they stand sizable load.
Several technology are just being used to produce these S & C.At present, significantly the S & C part of ratio is manufactured with cast austenitic manganese steel (AMS).Due to its high work hardening capacity impacting, excellent in toughness after solution treatment and water quenching and under work hardening condition extraordinary wear resistance, thereby conventionally use AMS.The C that the nominal chemical composition analysis of AMS is 1.2%, 13% Mn and 0.5% Si, the body hardness that its generation scope is 200-250HB.After a certain amount of transportation, the hardness of described S & C can reach the level of 500-550HB.
AMS also has many shortcomings, for example 0.2% low yielding stress.Rail switch (point) and crossing, in the common serious shock load condition of experience of viability, cause viscous deformation and work hardening, this by the strength of materials rise to further plastic flow more have resistivity level.Yet inevitably relative dimensions variation is unwanted under original unhardened condition.In road, the load of difference causes inhomogeneous sclerosis and local viscous deformation in-orbit, and the poor riding quality of gained finally need to be rebuild by weld deposit the profile of distortion.As a result, the AMS in heavy thrust load application needs grinding frequently to remove deformation (lipping) and to need repair by welding to repair Deformation Height loss.
AMS is the material that is difficult to be cast or machined into the needed complicated shape of S & C.And, any change of the track of track crossing is needed to new casting mould, make the production of uncommon crossing profile very expensive.The freezing range that AMS is narrow causes many holes type defect, and it can be the cracking starting point of in use seeing.Conventionally, the hole in AMS crossing occurs in approximately 10 degree of depth to 15mm from new surface, once and reach this degree of depth, due to the risk of the hole initiation crackle by any remnants, REPAIR WELDING just becomes unrealistic to rebuild described crossing.For AMS parts, within 10 years, be conventionally regarded as ordinary life, because surpass the repair by welding so serious to such an extent as to that continue to remedy that become of the degree of this time limit defect, be uneconomic, and must replace described parts.Further problem about AMS is the thermolability of austenitic microstructure, and this causes material to be difficult to welding.Difficulty in this welding is not only problems during parts described in repair by welding in position, and is also problem in the process of parts manufacture, because rail must be welded on described assembly before in being arranged on track circuit.
As the result of these problems, several surrogates for the conventional AMS intersection shape of the mouth as one speaks have been developed.Some S & C consist of the material of composition metal interlayer form, wherein contact the part of wheel of the train passing through difference forms by having, steel plate hard, wear-resisting of microstructure and character makes.The bottom of these article is manufactured by basic steel compositions.These solutions provide conventionally has the more cheap surrogate that good welding can toolability, but the character of crossing protuberance (nose) depends on the precision level of the steel compositions that forms described crossing protuberance.In many cases, such composition does not mate with wearing and tearing and the rolling contact fatigue resistivity particularly being provided by AMS crossing.And these solutions are difficult to due to the composite intermediate layer of different steel produce.
Another surrogate of AMS is to provide the high manganese part with work hardening layer before part is installed in the line.Pre-hardening technology in surface can comprise shot-peening, roll-in or explosion hardening.In these technology, explosion hardening is normally preferably selected, because it provides enough thick in to meet the hardened layer of the service requirements of described S & C.
Yet, by these surface hardening technology, be difficult to control the thickness of hardened layer.And surface hardening does not solve welding can toolability problem and the casting flaw relevant to the high manganese part of casting.
Therefore, the inventor sets about design for the solution of these problems.
The object of this invention is to provide conduct to AMS and the particularly Novel forging steel for S & C to the surrogate of casting AMS.
Another object is to provide as the Novel forging steel for S & C to the surrogate of AMS, and described forged steel is for can easily welding by the crown (top-of-head) REPAIR WELDING step in-situ repair.
Another object be to provide to protuberance impact (batter) by more have resistivity Novel forging steel.
Another object is to provide the Novel forging steel for S & C, and described forged steel is welding for conventional perlite rail.
Another object is to provide the Novel forging steel for S & C, and described forged steel can resistance flash butt welding for conventional perlite rail.

The present invention allows to produce the former material base of single type, described former material base can be machined to subsequently to any crossing design that need to meet local condition.Computer-controlled machining causes tolerance more accurate under reducing costs.The crossing that has many different angles due to track, to meet local demand, is therefore also reflected in the various casting mould cause of needs AMS castings production these and this in their relatively high costs.Therefore, the invention provides significant cost.
The effect of carbon in this steel is in order mainly to obtain the enough hardness of steel by solution strengthening.On the other hand, high-carbon content causes the increase of the amount of residual austenite, causes the reduction of hardness.Owing to all forming carbon network in manufacturing conditions and after welding, the increase of carbon content will enlarge markedly the risk of embrittlement of grain boundaries in these steel.Therefore, in order to keep the delicate balance between hardness and embrittlement risk, for these steel carbon contents need to for 0.01%-0.15%, (all compositions provide with weight percent, except as otherwise noted).More preferably carbon content is 0.01-0.12%.As the result of their lower carbon contents, most these alloys can easily weld.In order further to improve weldability, carbon content is preferably at the most 0.10, and more preferably at the most 0.08.
In order to realize required microstructure, carbon content is at least 0.01% and preferably at least 0.02%.From the suitable minimum carbon content of angle of steel-making, be 0.04%.
Manganese is that austenite promotes element.Its stable austenite, increases the temperature range that austenite exists.
Change is presented at according to the manganese content in steel of the present invention under at least 10% manganese content and obtains highest hardness.Under 15% very high manganese level for example, lower hardness is to insufficient level.It is deciding factor for life-span of most of track parts (comprising S & C) that hardness and wear resistance has strong dependency and wear resistance.Low wear rate means the repairing that does not need so continually part.Have lower than the steel of 10% manganese content from higher than 10% those between different owing to microstructure of the significant difference of wear resistance.Manganese level lower than 10% causes complete martensitic microstructure, yet shows residual austenite, ε-martensite (close-packed hexagonal or hcp martensite) and martensitic mixing microstructure higher than 10% level.Preferably, manganese level is at least 11%.The wear resistance of steel of having found to have complete martensitic microstructure is poorer than those of the mixing microstructure that contains martensite and retained austenite.Yet, increase manganese content and also cause the increase of residual austenite.Under the manganese content higher than 15%, the level of residual austenite becomes the increase hardness of enough height to such an extent as to martensitic phase more than the hardness of being offset by softer austenitic increase ratio, and overall hardness and the wear resistance of steel declines described in result.The resistivity of On Crack Propagation is high and relevant with degradation failure very slowly.For this reason, exist any fatigue cracking for development before complete failure occurs to be found and to remove or repair boosting chances of affected one or more parts from use.Based on above-mentioned demonstration, manganese content is preferably at least 11 and at the most 15%.Because manganese is also expensive alloy element, find that suitable maximum manganese content is 14% or even 13%.Find that suitable minimum manganese content is 11.5%.When being 12-13%Mn, described manganese content obtains the maximum value of hardness and wear resistance.Under these levels, one side residual austenite+ε-martensite and the on the other hand martensitic amount of hard are about 50:50, and the gratifying combination of impelling strength and hardness is provided thus.
Molybdenum is being effective aspect increase impelling strength.In addition,, due to the scavenging(action) of molybdenum for phosphorus, prevented temper embrittlement phenomenon.Under the level of Mo 0.6%, the increase aspect impelling strength merits attention, but obtains further and increase under the value higher than 0.6%.In the trend stable (off) under 1.5% value that is increased in aspect impelling strength.Therefore, it need to be 0.6%-3.95% that molybdenum in this steel adds, and preferably molybdenum content is at the most 2.95% and/or at least 1.25%.Find that 1.5% molybdenum content is the suitable minimum value for stable notched bar impact strength.From angle in conjunction with cost and technology, find that 1.90% molybdenum content is suitable maximum value, because cause only moderate further improvement higher than the interpolation of 1.90% value.
Find that silicon has minimum impact to the impelling strength of these steel and wear resistance, although it provides the increase in tensile strength and hardness via solution strengthening really.In steel manufacture process, it also serves as reductor.On this basis, the maximum value of the Si of recommendation 0.5%.Find that suitable minimum content is 0.10 or even 0.15%, and/or find that suitable maximum value is 0.40 or even 0.35%.
Nickel (Ni), cobalt (Co) and copper (Cu) promote the mode of element to have and the similar effect of manganese by them as austenite.Can add to a certain extent these elements and replace manganese, or except manganese, also add these elements.Can be with the maximum value of every kind of element 1.0%, add up at the most 3% to add Ni, Co and Cu.Preferably the maximum value of Ni, Co and/or Cu is 0.5%.
According to alloy of the present invention, having proved can be easily mach.One or more that if necessary, can carry out that sulphur, calcium, tellurium or selenium or any other known machinable strengthen element add to promote (further) these alloys.
Phosphorus content remains on conventionally lower than 0.08%, preferably lower than 0.05% and preferably lower than 0.02%, so that the trend of hot tearing minimizes.Phosphorus is the residual element in these steel.If do not add sulphur to strengthen machinable, sulphur content remains on the impurity level lower than 0.02% conventionally so.If interpolation sulphur, so suitable maximum is 0.08%, is preferably 0.05%.If add lower column element as alloy element, so preferred scope is as follows: the V of 0.02-0.20%, the Ti of the Nb of 0.02-0.10%, 0.02-0.20% are, the B of the Zr of 0.02-0.20%, 5-50ppm and the N of 10-250ppm.Suitable maximum level is 0.10% V, 0.075% Nb, 0.10% Zr and/or 0.10% Ti.B, V, Nb, Zr and Ti contribute to the grain refining of steel.
Steel according to the present invention is preferably silicon deoxidation.The degree of cleaning of supposing described steel keep meeting according to the standard aspect the maximum value being mingled with at aluminum oxide, described steel can also be aluminium deoxidation or the deoxidation of aluminium-silicon.When adding as alloy element, maximum total aluminium content is 0.2%.Preferably total aluminium content (when adding as alloy element) is 0.02-0.15%.Metallicity aluminium content (as oxide compound exist) will be lower, this depend on when interpolation aluminium described in the oxide content of steel melt.
Steel according to the present invention has lower than 5ppm, preferably lower than 3.5ppm and more preferably less than the hydrogen richness of 2.5ppm.
Although chromium preferably remains on the impurity level lower than 0.15%, chromium is not to have a mind to add, and for some application, can add the chromium of the level that is up to 0.3%.The highest suitable chromium content is 0.2%.
It should be noted that, can also be for the production of foundry goods according to steel compositions of the present invention, but because low carbon composition is more expensive than normal AMS Clarence Hadfield (Hadfiled) types of steel with high-carbon content, and under its casting condition, do not produce than AMS better properties, thereby use composition according to the present invention produce cast material be economically do not have attractive.
