Specific implementation mode
The heat treatment method of steel rail weld joint, includes the following steps:The rail welding to be cooled that welding obtains is connect Head carries out first stage cooling under the first cooling velocity, so that the rail head skin temperature of steel rail weld joint is down to 650~720 DEG C, so that steel rail weld joint is carried out second stage cooling under the second cooling velocity, so that the rail head of steel rail weld joint Skin temperature is down to 220~280 DEG C, and steel rail weld joint is finally made to carry out phase III cooling under third cooling velocity, with The rail head skin temperature of steel rail weld joint is set to be down to 10~30 DEG C.
The critical cooling rate about 0.7-1.5 of martensite transfor mation during eutectoid pearlite steel rail steel continuous cooling transformation DEG C/s, and the about 1.8-3.0 DEG C/s of critical cooling rate of the martensite transfor mation during hypereutectoid steel rail steel continuous cooling transformation. About 250 DEG C of eutectoid pearlite steel rail Ms temperature (start temperature that martensitic structure is formed), and hypereutectoid rail Ms temperature about 190 ℃.To avoid steel rail weld joint from the abnormal structures such as martensite occur, when the welding to hypereutectoid steel rail and eutectoid steel rail When connector carries out post weld heat treatment, the final cooling temperature during need to being quickly cooled down post weld heat treatment is controlled in eutectoid pearlite steel It is more than rail Ms temperature.Meanwhile the cooling velocity in PWHT procedures must be with the relatively low eutectoid pearlite of Critical cooling speed Rail steel is limited, and otherwise steel rail weld joint will cause premature fatigue to be broken due to the martensitic structure largely hardened.Cause This, provides in rail welding standard such as Australia rail welding standard AS1085.20-2012:For certain high grades, Gao Han The rail of carbon amounts and high alloy content, under the observation multiplying power of metallographic microscope 100x, for martensite in steel rail weld joint The most serious region of appearance, the percentage composition of martensitic structure must not be higher than 5%, and otherwise connector will be due to the horse largely hardened Family name's body tissue and cause premature fatigue to be broken, seriously affect railway operation safety.Therefore, strictly in control rail welding tissue Martensite content is most important for the stable operation of rail track.In addition, in hypereutectoid rail base material, there is also a small amount of Secondary cementite, be in netted Intergranular precipitation during rail welding to avoid secondary cementite, therefore must be in austenite to pearl Butt joint implementation is quickly cooled down before body of light transformation starts.Based on above-mentioned discovery, inventor completes the present invention.
The present invention realizes the PWHT procedures of rail using the welding waste heat of rail.For the obtained residual temperature of welding compared with The rail joint of high (1000~1400 DEG C) implements postwelding and accelerates cooling, to reduce connector rail head from austenite to perlitic transformation Phase transition temperature, to improve the hardness in austenite recrystallization area.Based on Principles of Metallography, rail joint is quick in postwelding high temperature There are certain dynamic degree of supercooling under cooling condition, cause under nonequilibrium condition austenite under the phase transition temperature of perlitic transformation It moves, and with the increase of degree of supercooling, phase transition temperature continuously decreases.Thus, even if opening the relatively low second stage of cold temperature Cooling, connector rail head remains to occur the structural transformation from austenite to pearlite.
In the present invention, the first cold stage is but the natural cooling (can carry out at room temperature) carried out in air, cold But speed is 5.0~9.0 DEG C/s, can be realized to the first stage (as used central air-conditioner temperature control) by adjusting test ambient temperature The control of cooling velocity, and can be by adjusting the end that welding machine is arranged or manual operation cools down the steel rail weld joint first stage Cold temperature control is at 650~720 DEG C;The cold temperature of opening of the second stage cooling is 650~720 DEG C, it is notable that this In invention, the final cooling temperature of the second stage cooling turns higher than the martensite of hypereutectoid steel rail steel and eutectoid pearlite steel rail steel Become start temperature (Ms temperature), the present invention in the second cooling stage final cooling temperature be 220~280 DEG C, cooling velocity be 1.5~ 2.5℃/s;When carrying out phase III cooling to rail joint, for the martensitic structure for avoiding connector from occurring hardening, the present invention Selection is with real less than 0.05~0.50 DEG C/s of the cooling velocity butt joints of eutectoid pearlite steel rail steel martensite transfor mation Critical cooling speed It applies and cools down at a slow speed, and be cooled to room temperature (10~30 DEG C);The type of cooling that the present invention is cooled down by using three steps, limitation are different cold But the cooling velocity and cooling temperature in stage can reach and promote steel rail weld joint hardness, ensure in steel rail weld joint metallographic The purpose of abnormal structures≤1% such as martensite, bainite.
In the method for the present invention, the second stage cooling and phase III cooling imitate type cooling device using rail head of rail, The rail head tread of steel rail weld joint and rail head side are cooled down as cooling medium using compressed air or water mist gaseous mixture, Cooling device is 20~50mm apart from rail head of rail tread;The compressed air or water that the second stage cooling device is ejected The gas pressure of mist gaseous mixture is 0.40~0.80MPa, the compressed air or water that the phase III cooling device is ejected The gas pressure of mist gaseous mixture is 0.05~0.25MPa.
In the present invention, hypereutectoid rail and eutectoid rail for welding are specification of the same race, specially 60~75kg/m Specification, the steel rail weld joint is using same welding procedure by the dissimilar welding that is welded of rail movement flash welder Connector.
In the present invention, in the absence of explanation to the contrary, " steel rail weld joint " be it is welded obtain include Length including weld seam and/or heat affected area is the region of 70~100mm ranges, and the center in the region is the weld seam of rail.
In the present invention, the temperature signal of rail head of rail tread is acquired using infrared radiation thermometer, the rail head of rail tread is The contact portion of wheel and rail;The hardness number corresponding to softened zone width measurement line in the hardness curve of rail joint longitudinal direction is Rail base material average hardness subtracts the hardness after 25HV;Softening sector width in hardness curve is hardness curve and softening sector width Measure the intercept of line.
