Description

endless rolling intermediate billet connecting method and system
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of hot rolling equipment, and relates to a method and a system for connecting intermediate billets in the process of changing conventional hot rolling into endless rolling in the steel industry.
Background
The traditional hot continuous rolling finishing mill group for the plate strip rolls a single intermediate billet, and the plate strip enters the finishing mill group to generally undergo the processes of threading, accelerated rolling, decelerated rolling, steel throwing, tail flicking and the like. In the finish rolling process, particularly in the thin rolling process, the biting of the head part of the plate strip between the finish rolling mill frames is easily blocked, steel piling, slipping and tail-flick folding of the tail part are formed, and the tail-flick forms folding biting, so that the surface damage of a roller and the like are generated; during coiling, steel pile and the like are formed due to coiling difficulty caused by snaking, bending and the like of the front end of the plate strip; single billet rolling is carried out, load prediction and roll gap value setting are carried out on each rolled billet, and if the rolling force prediction is not accurate, the thickness and convexity change of the strip steel and the shape fluctuation between the frames can be caused by the rolling force prediction error; in the thin gauge rolling, because the heat dissipation of the strip steel is fast, in order to ensure the rolling temperature of the thin strip steel, the threading speed and the stable rolling speed need to be improved as much as possible, but after the threading speed is improved, various threading problems and the failure rate caused by head folding and the like are increased, so the traditional hot rolling production of the thin gauge is limited to a certain extent; in addition, the time interval between finishing mill coils also affects the performance of mill capacity.
The endless rolling of the hot-rolled strip steel means that the rolled blank is not divided into blocks in the finish rolling stage, the strip is threaded once, the continuous finish rolling is carried out, and the rolled strip steel is coiled according to the required weight by a high-speed flying shear. Endless rolling overcomes the limitations of intermittent rolling while solving the aforementioned intermittent rolling problems: the problem of threading is solved by rolling without heads and tails; the quality stability and the yield are improved through stable rolling; the production efficiency is improved by reducing the tape threading times and ensuring that the coiling clearance time is almost zero; it is possible to produce ultra-thin strip steel or wide sheet steel exceeding the past limit rolling size, and to roll new varieties by lubrication rolling and forced cooling. The endless rolling technology improves the yield, the dimensional and shape precision and the thin and ultrathin specification proportion of the plate strip, realizes that part of the plate strip is cooled by heat, reduces the consumption of the roller and obtains remarkable effect. The technology is a leap of steel production technology, and represents the leading-edge technology of hot-rolled strip steel in the world.
Among the endless rolling techniques, the technique for connecting intermediate billets after rough rolling is one of the key techniques for realizing endless rolling. Because the finishing mill group adopts tension rolling, the connection quality of the intermediate billet in a hot state influences whether endless rolling can be realized, if the connection time is too long, the production efficiency is influenced, obvious temperature drop is generated, the subsequent finish rolling is difficult to carry out, and if the connection strength is not high and the quality is not good, strip breakage is easy to occur at the joint, so that the continuous finish rolling cannot be carried out; and the connecting equipment is not suitable to be complicated, otherwise, the installation position of the equipment is limited, and the investment, production and maintenance cost is increased.
At present, the endless rolling intermediate billet connection method mainly includes a lap-rolling press-connection method, a butt-joint press-connection method, a welding method, a mechanical connection method, a reduction flame treatment connection method, a direct-current connection method, an induction heating connection method, a laser welding method, and the like. Among these joining methods, induction heating joining, laser heating joining, and shear friction joining are industrially used.
The induction heating connection method is a connection technology adopted by Kawasaki iron making, a tiny gap is kept between the tail end of a front plate blank and the front end of a rear plate blank, and an alternating magnetic field is applied to the thickness direction of the plate blanks in the state, so that induced current can be generated on the joint end surface of the two plate blanks. The end face of the plate blank generates heat and rises temperature due to joule heat caused by the induction current, and then the joint face is pressed and connected. In this connection method, since the current flowing through the corner portions of the strip ends is much smaller than the current flowing through the middle portion during induction heating, the unbonded portions remain at the end portions of the connection surface. Meanwhile, the temperature of the connecting area is higher than that of other parts of the strip blank, and the strength of the connecting area is lower than that of other areas, so that the connecting area becomes a weak link in the endless rolling process, and strip breakage is easily caused.
The laser heat welding method is a connecting technology adopted by the new iron, and compared with an induction heating connecting method, the laser heat welding method can eliminate the existence of the un-combined part of the connecting end surface, but still has the problems that the temperature of the combined part is higher than that of other parts, and the applicable steel grade is limited; and the power required by the laser is very large, thus obviously increasing the equipment investment and the production cost.
The shearing friction connection method is that a shearing machine with special design is adopted to cut off the lapping area of the intermediate billet along the inclined plane, two non-oxidation surfaces are formed by shearing, the newly formed two surfaces generate relative motion by the shearing force, friction is generated, a large amount of heat energy is generated, the diffusion of the surfaces is accelerated, and the shearing machine applies pressure to the inclined plane to form physical combination along the shearing plane while shearing. The connection method is mainly suitable for connection of the same material due to the fact that pressure is applied to the shearing surface to carry out physical connection, and when different materials are connected, the strength of a connection area is affected due to different chemical components and physical metallurgical characteristics.
In a word, the intermediate billet connection modes in the prior art all have one or more of the problems of large equipment investment, low intermediate billet connection strength, slow connection speed, unsuitability for connection of dissimilar steel materials, huge equipment and high maintenance cost.

Example 2
The difference between this example and example 1 is that the structure of the intermediate billet connecting device 500 is different, as shown in fig. 6 and fig. 7, this example adopts a mode of vibration friction, that is, the friction mechanism 1 is a friction blade, and further includes a friction blade vibration tool rest 91, a friction blade pressing tool rest 92, a friction blade vibration device 93, an inlet clamping device 5, an outlet clamping device 6 and an upsetting device 7. The inlet holding device 5, the outlet holding device 6 and the upsetting device 7 are the same as in embodiment 1.
The inlet clamping device 5 is used for clamping the rear block intermediate blank 81, the outlet clamping device 6 is used for clamping the front block intermediate blank 82, the friction blade is arranged on the friction blade vibration tool rest 91, and the friction blade vibration tool rest 91 is arranged in the friction blade pressing tool rest 92; the friction blade is positioned between the inlet holding device 5 and the outlet holding device 6, and the friction blade is vibrated by the friction blade vibrating device 93 to rub the connecting end surfaces of the front intermediate billet 82 and the rear intermediate billet 81, the upsetting device 7 is positioned in front of the inlet holding device 5, and the upsetting device 7 applies an upsetting force to the rear intermediate billet 81 by the inlet holding device 5.
As shown in fig. 8 and 9, in order to ensure that the friction blade is in sufficient contact with the connecting end surfaces of the front intermediate blank 82 and the rear intermediate blank 81, the length direction of the friction blade is consistent with the width direction of the intermediate blank 8, and the length of the friction blade is greater than the maximum width of the intermediate blank 8; the friction blade is pressed down by the friction blade pressing tool rest 92, the pressing depth range H is ensured, and the friction blade can penetrate into the lower surface of the intermediate blank 8. The raising and lowering movement of the friction blade depressing tool post 92 may be driven by pneumatic, hydraulic, or electric motors, etc. The friction blade vibration device 93 can adopt various forms, such as a motor driving form, hydraulic vibration or electromagnetic vibration and the like, and meets the requirements of controllable amplitude and frequency.
The friction blade is driven by the friction blade vibration device 93 to vibrate rapidly and reciprocally, the vibration direction is vertical or horizontal, and the vibration frequency range is as follows: 10Hz-300 Hz; the amplitude S is generally 10mm or less, preferably 3mm to 5 mm. The amplitude cannot be too large, and the amplitude is too large, so that the friction pair is easy to destabilize, and the weldment is difficult to center and fails to weld.
The upsetting device 7 is positioned in front of the inlet clamping device 5, and applies upsetting pressure to the rear block intermediate billet 81 through the inlet clamping device 5, wherein the pressure range is 10MPa-200MPa, the upsetting pressure is not too high, otherwise, a large amount of bonding media are extruded, and the welding effect is reduced.
Further, the friction blade may vibrate in a direction perpendicular to the intermediate slab 8 or in a width direction of the intermediate slab 8, the friction blade vibration device 93 is installed above or at a side of the intermediate slab, and when the friction blade vibration device 93 is installed above the intermediate slab, the friction blade vibrates up and down perpendicular to the surface of the intermediate slab 8; the friction blade vibrating device 93 is installed at the side surface of the intermediate blank, and the friction blade vibrates in the width direction of the intermediate blank 8, and specifically, the friction blade vibrating device 4 may be installed on the frame of the connecting apparatus itself, or a frame support may be additionally provided outside the connecting apparatus.
In summary, the present invention has a simple structure, and the oxide film on the end face is crushed and extruded during the upsetting, so that special treatments such as descaling are not required.
The connection speed is high: the self temperature of the intermediate blank reaches 950-1100 ℃, so that the viscoplasticity state suitable for welding can be achieved only by short-time friction.
Joint strength is high, is applicable to the slab connection of different materials: by adopting a friction welding method, the welded material is not melted, and the metal in a welding area is a forging structure without the defect of melting welding; under the action of the top forging pressure, a welding area generates some mechanical metallurgical effects, and the friction surface generates a self-cleaning effect without an oxide layer; the friction welding time is short, the heat affected zone is narrow, and the structure of the heat affected zone is not obviously coarsened.
