Description

6-series aluminum alloy section for automobile bumper and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of wrought aluminum alloy smelting and extrusion molding, in particular to a 6-series aluminum alloy section for an automobile bumper and a preparation method thereof.
Background
Bumpers have been used as important components in automotive crash systems to provide a very important energy absorption function during frontal low-speed collisions. The bumper is generally formed by welding or screwing a beam, an energy absorption box, a connecting plate and a trailer hook. When the front and rear parts of the vehicle body are impacted, the bumper beam disperses force to the energy absorption boxes on the two sides through three-point bending and then transmits the force to the left longitudinal beam and the right longitudinal beam and then to other structures of the vehicle body, so that the loss of vehicle parts and the degree of pedestrian injury during low-speed collision are reduced. The beam and the energy absorption box absorb energy through three-point bending and crumpling deformation behaviors respectively. The energy absorption effect in the deformation process is mainly integrated with two aspects: compressive force and compressive displacement. The compressive force is mainly determined by the structure of the product and the strength of the material, so that a complex multi-cavity structure and a high-strength material are more favored to be designed. Of course, the tendency of the product surface to crack during compression needs to be considered, and if the tendency to crack is too large, the energy cannot be effectively absorbed finally, so that the reduction of the tendency to crack during the deformation of the material is also important.
The extrusion molding can fully exert the plasticity of the processed metal due to the three-dimensional compression stress, thereby manufacturing various complex hollow section members which are applied to bumper beams and energy absorption box parts. Although the existing 6005A aluminum alloy has the advantage of high strength, when the aluminum alloy is used for an automobile energy absorption box, the aluminum alloy has serious collapse, deformation and cracking, and the main reasons are that the mold structure is complex when a multi-cavity structure is extruded, the metal fluidity is poor, and the recrystallization driving force is large; meanwhile, the extrusion speed is limited to a certain extent, and the quenching transfer time is too long. The crystal grains are coarsened due to the growth of recrystallization after being crushed in the process of forming the metal in the die cavity of the extrusion die. Meanwhile, due to the alloy proportion of Si and high Mg, the 6005A aluminum alloy has larger performance attenuation in the long-term thermal stability experiment (the temperature is kept at 150 ℃ for 1000 hours), and the produced product has larger performance attenuation risk in the whole service life cycle.
Therefore, the applicant inherits the abundant experience of design development and actual manufacturing in the related industry for many years, researches and improves the prior traditional alloy and process, and provides a 6-series aluminum alloy section for a beam and an energy absorption box of an automobile bumper and a preparation method thereof, so as to achieve the purpose of higher practical value, namely, the purpose of adding Mn, Cr and Cu elements in a trace amount in the aluminum alloy and designing specific Mg: the Si proportion is combined with specific procedures of smelting, casting, homogenizing annealing, extruding, online quenching, straightening, artificial aging and the like, so that the cracking tendency of the material in the deformation process and the performance attenuation in the thermal stability experiment process are reduced.
