In a further advantageous embodiment, following scheme can be used: the technical solution adopted in the present invention is: (1) suitably drops
C element content in low tradition carbon axle, improves toughness and the plasticity of steel;(2) in steel, add Ni, Cu element to improve
The quenching degree of steel and corrosion resistance, and add the Zr of trace, Nb, [N] element with crystal grain thinning, thus the toughness improving steel is special
It is low-temperature flexibility, and improves intensity and the toughness cooperation of steel, improve the anti-fatigue performance of steel;(3) appropriate Ca element is added,
Field trash in steel carries out degenerative treatments, and impurity element T [O], the content of P, S etc. in the strictest control steel, with further
Improve the anti-fatigue performance of steel.The present invention's it is critical that adjust optimizing components and control organically to be combined with metallurgical quality
Come, while obtaining high intensity, it is thus achieved that excellent resisting fatigue destructive characteristics and relatively low cost.
The specific chemical composition (weight %) of steel is as follows: C:0.24~0.30, Si:0.20~0.40, Mn:0.70~1.00,
Cr:0.90~1.20, Ni:0.70~1.30, Mo:0.20~0.30, Cu:0.10~0.60, Zr:0.01~0.04, Nb:
0.015~0.050, Ca:0.001~0.005, P≤0.010, S≤0.008, [N]: 0.0040~0.0060, T [O]≤0.0015,
Als:0.015~0.045, remaining for Fe with other inevitable impurity.
The effect of above-mentioned each element and proportioning are according to as follows:
C:C element is that axle steel obtains necessary to high intensity, hardness.C content in tradition axle steel is higher, as at present
Carbon content in lorry axle steel LZ50 is 0.50%.Although high C content is favourable to the intensity of steel, hardness etc., but
Plasticity and toughness to steel are totally unfavorable, and make yield tensile ratio reduction, Decarburization Sensitivity increase, and deteriorate the anti-fatigue performance of steel and add
Work performance.The most suitably reduce the C content in steel, controlled below 0.30%.But, after quenching and high tempering it is
High intensity needed for obtaining and necessary fatigue behaviour, C content must more than 0.24%, thus C content preferably control be 0.24~
0.30%.
Si:Si is deoxidant element main in steel, has the strongest solution strengthening effect, but Si too high levels will make moulding of steel
Property and toughness decline, the activity increase of C, promote steel decarburization in rolling and heat treatment process and graphitization tendency, and make
Smelt difficulty and be easily formed field trash, deteriorating the anti-fatigue performance of steel.Therefore controlling Si content is 0.20~0.40%.
Mn:Mn is the effective element of deoxidation and desulfurization, it is also possible to improve quenching degree and the intensity of steel, when content is less than 0.70%,
It is difficult to function as described above.But during hardened steel tempering, Mn and P has strong grain boundary cosegregation to be inclined to, and promotes temper brittleness, dislikes
Change the toughness of steel, thus control Mn content below 1.00%.
Cr:Cr can be effectively improved quenching degree and the resistance to tempering of steel, the high intensity needed for obtaining;Cr also can drop simultaneously
The activity of low C, it is possible to decrease heat, roll and steel surface decarburizing tendency in heat treatment process, have utilize obtain high anti-tired
Labor performance.But too high levels can deteriorate the toughness of steel, thus controlling Cr content is 0.90~1.20%.
Ni:Ni can improve the quenching degree of steel, corrosion resistance and guarantee steel toughness at low temperatures.In view of economy, control Ni
Content is 0.80~1.30%.
Mo:Mo effect in steel predominantly improves quenching degree, improves resistance to tempering and prevent temper brittleness.Additionally, Mo element
Quenching degree and resistance to tempering can be made to be improved significantly with the reasonable coordination of Cr element.Mo content the most above-mentioned too low limited use,
Mo too high levels, the most above-mentioned effect is saturated, and improves the cost of steel.Therefore, controlling Mo content is 0.20~0.30%.
Cu:Cu is similar to Ni in terms of solution strengthening, raising quenching degree.Meanwhile, steel adds copper and also can improve the anti-of steel
Corrosion Fatigue Properties, because tiny Cu precipitation has blocked the formation of the initial stage vein texture of fatigue, and copper precipitate
There is good plasticity, the extension of fatigue crack can be hindered;The steel corrosion resistance effect it addition, Cu also improves;Thus carry
The corrosion fatigue strength of Gao Gang.But Cu too high levels, steel easily causes hot-short in heating rolling or forging process.Consider,
Range-controllable system is 0.10~0.60%.
Zr: adding a small amount of zirconium has degassing, purification and Grain refinement, be conducive to improving the low temperature impact properties of steel and intensity,
Fatigue behaviour index.Considering, range-controllable system is 0.010~0.040%.
Nb:Nb mainly shows as crystal grain refinement, precipitation strength and phase transformation strengthening to the Strengthening and Toughening effect of axle steel.Nb in steel with
Displacement solute atoms exists, and Nb atomic ratio iron atom size is big, easily segregation on dislocation line, and dislocation climb is produced strong dragging
Drag effect, make Recrystallization nucleation be suppressed, recrystallization is had strong interception, improve the recrystallization temperature of austenite
Degree, thus reach the purpose of fining austenite grains, crystal grain refinement can not only improve the obdurability of steel, and improves steel
Cryogenic property.But it is expensive.Considering, the range-controllable system of Nb is 0.015%~0.050%.
Ca:Ca has deoxidization desulfuration and the effect to non-metallic inclusion degenerative treatments, thus improves toughness and the fatigue resistance of steel
Energy.Ca content does not has above-mentioned effect less than 0.001%, but content is more than 0.005%, then add extremely difficult, and field trash
Amount increases.Thus controlling Ca content is 0.001~0.005%.
P:P can form microsegregation when solidification of molten steel, and when austenitizing temperature heats, segregation, at crystal boundary, makes the crisp of steel subsequently
Property significantly increase, so control P content below 0.012%.
S: inevitable impurity in steel, forms MnS and is mingled with and can deteriorate toughness and the anti-fatigue performance of steel at Grain Boundary Segregation,
Thus control its content below 0.008%.
[N]: in the presence of having V, Al, Nb, Ti etc. in steel, nitrogen can form carbonitride with them, austenite can be stoped to tie again
Crystalline substance, crystal grain thinning, improves the toughness of steel, and can improve the intensity of steel.As nitrogen content is higher, can exist with solid solution condition, from
And deteriorate the toughness plasticity index of steel.Considering, range-controllable system is 0.0040~0.0060%.
T [O]: oxygen forms various oxide in steel and is mingled with.Under the effect of stress, easily produce at these oxide places of being mingled with
Stress is concentrated, and causes the germinating of micro-crack, thus deteriorates mechanical property particularly toughness and the anti-fatigue performance of steel.Therefore, exist
Metallurgical production must take measures reduce its content as far as possible.In view of economy, control its content below 0.0015%.
