Description

Bearing heat treatment zero decarburization and zero recarburization control method
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of heat treatment, in particular to a bearing heat treatment zero decarburization and zero recarburization control method.
Background
Decarburization means a phenomenon in which the carbon content of steel is reduced, and the strength of the steel after decarburization is reduced and softened. The carburization is a phenomenon that carbon elements are precipitated on the surface of a steel piece at high temperature, and the brittleness of the steel material with the carburization phenomenon is increased. It is seen that it is desirable to avoid excessive decarburization or excessive carburization in the heat treatment of steel parts. Conventional steel parts allow for a depth of decarburized or carburized layer, but for bearing steels, the depth requirements for the decarburized and decarburized layers are more stringent and zero decarburizing and zero carburization cannot be achieved with current heat treatment methods.
At present, the heat treatment step of the bearing steel is generally carried out by adopting a mesh belt furnace, protective gas is filled into the mesh belt furnace all the time in the whole processing process, so that the bearing steel is always in the protective gas environment, the phenomenon of excessive decarburization of a steel piece is prevented, the introduction amount of the protective gas is controlled, and the phenomenon of excessive recarburization of the steel piece is prevented. However, because the mesh belt furnace is an open structure, in order to control the carbon potential, the general method is to control the introducing amount of the protective gas of the mesh belt furnace to be far greater than the consumption amount, part of the protective gas introduced into the mesh belt furnace is burnt and lost in the furnace, and part of the protective gas is discharged out of the mesh belt furnace, and the aim is to maintain the higher protective gas concentration in the mesh belt furnace all the time. Specifically, the process of introducing the protective gas into the mesh belt furnace actually is to introduce the protective gas into the mesh belt furnace, part of the protective gas is burnt and lost in the furnace, part of the protective gas can be discharged from an inlet of the mesh belt furnace, namely the protective gas in the mesh belt furnace is always in a dynamic change state, when the introduction amount of the protective gas is far more than the consumption amount (namely the burning loss amount and the discharge amount), the protective gas in the mesh belt furnace can be continuously accumulated after a period of time, and the carbon potential in the mesh belt furnace is increased. Theoretically, after the carbon potential in the mesh belt furnace meets the requirement, the stable carbon potential can be maintained as long as the introduction amount of the protective gas is reduced, and the protective gas in the mesh belt furnace is in a dynamic balance state.
Obviously, the existing method has obvious defects, because the introduction amount of the protective gas is far more than the consumption amount, after a period of time, the inside of the mesh belt furnace is filled with the protective gas, the redundant protective gas cannot be discharged from the inlet of the mesh belt furnace in time, and the carbon potential in the furnace is difficult to control; secondly, because the relation between the protective gas introduction amount and the consumption amount is difficult to determine, the carbon potential in the mesh belt furnace is difficult to stabilize, the change of the carbon potential needs to be paid attention to and adjusted in time, more manpower is consumed, and the phenomenon of decarburization or recarburization of a steel part is easily caused due to the frequent change of the carbon potential. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new heat treatment control method to solve the above problems.

Detailed Description
The present invention will be described in detail with reference to examples.
At present, the heat treatment step of bearing steel is generally carried out by adopting a mesh belt furnace, protective gas is always filled into the mesh belt furnace in the whole processing process, so that the bearing steel is always in the protective gas environment, in order to prevent the decarburization of a steel piece, gases such as methanol, propane and the like are generally adopted as the protective gas, and the methanol and the propane are continuously introduced in the whole processing process. However, when methanol and propane are excessive, the steel member is rather carburetted, and therefore the carbon potential in the mesh belt furnace needs to be kept within a stable range in general.
The process of letting in protective gas to the guipure stove is actually, let in protective gas to the guipure stove, and partial protective gas burns in the stove and consumes, and partial protective gas is discharged from guipure stove import department, also is that protective gas in the guipure stove is in dynamic change's state all the time, when protective gas's the volume of letting in far than the consumption (be burning loss volume + discharge amount) is many, the protective gas that is not burnt and consumes can not all in time discharge the guipure stove, after a period of time, protective gas can constantly accumulate in the guipure stove, leads to the interior carbon potential of guipure stove to increase. Theoretically, after the carbon potential in the mesh belt furnace meets the requirement, the stable carbon potential can be maintained as long as the introduction amount of the protective gas is reduced, and the protective gas in the mesh belt furnace is in a dynamic balance state.
The invention relates to the fact that the consumption of protective gas is related to refractory cotton at the inlet of a mesh belt furnace, and therefore provides a control method for zero decarburization and zero recarburization in bearing heat treatment, which comprises the following specific steps:
under a general state, nitrogen in the mesh belt furnace is in a normally open state, the introduction amount of the nitrogen is about 100-plus 200ml/min, the temperature in the mesh belt furnace is increased, the introduction amount of the nitrogen is increased (for example, when the temperature in the mesh belt furnace is increased to about 750 ℃, the introduction amount of the nitrogen is increased at one time), methanol and propane are introduced, the methanol and the propane are both used as protective gases, the carbon potential in the mesh belt furnace is increased to a process range, when the carbon potential has a strong rising trend, the protective atmosphere in the mesh belt furnace is saturated, the propane introduction is stopped, the methanol introduction is continued, and the feeding is started.
The prior conventional method is to simultaneously introduce methanol and propane all the time, and because two gases are simultaneously introduced, when the protective atmosphere in a mesh belt furnace is saturated, the two gases of methanol and propane are simultaneously adjusted to achieve the dynamic balance of the protective gas in the furnace. In the invention, methanol and propane are only introduced at the same time in the temperature rise stage of the mesh belt furnace, so that the rising rate of the carbon potential in the furnace is improved, when the carbon potential in the mesh belt furnace rises to the process range, the propane introduction is stopped, the carbon potential is prevented from being overhigh, but the methanol is continuously introduced, so that the carbon potential in the furnace is maintained in a stable range, and the adjustment of the methanol is relatively simple because only one gas of the methanol is introduced. In the present invention, the process range means that the carbon potential has a value in the range of 0.45 to 0.95, and preferably, the carbon potential has a value in the range of 0.8 to 0.95.
Specifically, the amount of methanol introduced was 80 to 90ml/min and the amount of propane introduced was 500-600ml/min before the normal feed.
The introduction amount of methanol is adjusted according to the sufficient degree of refractory cotton at the inlet of the mesh belt furnace in the feeding process, the more sufficient the refractory cotton is, the lower the introduction amount of the methanol is, and the introduction amount of the methanol is finely adjusted according to a carbon control instrument, so that the carbon potential in the mesh belt furnace is stably in the process range. Specifically, during the normal feeding, the amount of methanol fed was controlled to 15-90ml/min, and the amount of nitrogen fed was 500-600 ml/min.
The invention directly relates the introduction amount of the protective gas (namely methanol) to the sufficiency of the refractory cotton at the inlet of the mesh belt furnace. When the refractory wool is sufficient, the blocking effect on the furnace door is better, methanol gas in the mesh belt furnace is more difficult to discharge, the surface of a steel part is easily carburized, the introduction amount of the methanol needs to be reduced, on the contrary, when the refractory wool is insufficient, the methanol gas in the mesh belt furnace is easy to discharge, and in order to maintain the carbon potential in the mesh belt furnace, the introduction amount of the methanol needs to be increased.
It should be noted that, in the present invention, only methanol gas is introduced during the feeding process, and the difficulty of adjusting the introduction amount of the shielding gas is also considered, and if methanol and propane are always introduced simultaneously during the feeding process, it is difficult to accurately control the ratio of methanol and propane when adjusting the introduction amount of the shielding gas.
In addition, in the feeding process, the introduction amount of nitrogen is adjusted according to the sufficiency of the refractory cotton at the inlet of the mesh belt furnace; when the refractory cotton is sufficient, the introduction amount of the nitrogen is 500-550ml/min, such as 500 ml/min; when the refractory cotton is insufficient, the nitrogen gas is introduced in an amount of 550-600ml/min, such as 600 ml/min.
Specifically, when the refractory wool is sufficient, nitrogen is more difficult to discharge, and in order to ensure that the content of methanol in the mesh belt furnace is maintained at a normal level, the introduction amount of nitrogen needs to be reduced, the reduction of the consumption amount of methanol combusted in the furnace is prevented, and the recarburization of steel parts is prevented, because the nitrogen plays a role in maintaining a low-oxygen environment in the furnace, if the refractory wool is sufficient, the introduction amount of nitrogen is still maintained in a high state, the consumption amount of methanol combusted in the furnace is relatively reduced, the amount of methanol accumulated in the furnace is relatively increased, and the recarburization of steel parts is caused, so the introduction amount of nitrogen also needs to be reduced when the refractory wool is sufficient;
when the fire-resistant cotton is not enough, the volume of letting in of nitrogen gas also needs the increase, this is because when the fire-resistant cotton is not enough, if the volume of letting in of nitrogen gas still maintains lower state this moment, the air can get into the stove and react with methyl alcohol, the volume that methyl alcohol was consumed increases, the stove methyl alcohol is all consumed when serious, can not play the effect of protective gas, the phenomenon of decarbonization can appear in the steel spare, consequently, the volume of letting in of increase nitrogen gas prevents that methyl alcohol from burning the consumption completely in the stove, thereby prevent the steel spare decarbonization.
It should be noted that, when the amount of methanol or nitrogen introduced is adjusted according to the sufficiency of the refractory cotton, the adjustment degree of the amount of methanol or nitrogen introduced needs to be judged according to the real-time monitoring of the carbon control instrument, so that the carbon potential in the furnace is always within the process range.
In the feeding process, if the carbon potential is too low, stopping feeding, tightly closing a furnace door at the inlet of the mesh belt furnace, increasing the introduction amount of methanol, reducing the introduction amount of the methanol when the carbon potential is restored to be within the process range, and normally feeding again; if the carbon potential is too high, the introduction amount of the methanol is reduced, and after the carbon potential is restored to the process range, the introduction amount of the methanol is increased, and the normal feeding is carried out again.
And aiming at the condition of excessively low carbon potential, not only increasing the introduction amount of formaldehyde, but also introducing propane again, wherein the introduction amount of propane is less than or equal to 600ml/min, and stopping introducing propane when the carbon potential is recovered to be within the process range.
In addition, aiming at the condition of overhigh carbon potential, if the carbon potential is still in a higher state after the introduction amount of the methanol is adjusted or the original introduction amount of the methanol is lower, the opening degree of an inlet furnace door of the mesh belt furnace is increased, the opening degree of the furnace door is kept, the introduction amount of the methanol is finely adjusted according to a carbon control instrument, so that the carbon potential is stably in a process range, and then the materials are normally fed. It should be noted that the opening of the furnace door cannot be too large, and normal feeding cannot be affected.
In the invention, when the process needs to be converted, the feeding needs to be interrupted or the empty furnace needs to be insulated, the opening degree of the furnace door at the inlet of the mesh belt furnace is reduced, the introduction amount of the methanol is finely adjusted according to a carbon control instrument, and the carbon potential is kept stable in the process range.

during normal feeding, controlling the introduction amount of methanol to be 5-30ml/min x 3 (meaning that methanol is introduced into three pipelines simultaneously), and referring to whether refractory cotton is sufficient at the current stage, the more sufficient the refractory cotton is, the lower the introduction amount of methanol is, and fine adjustment is performed according to the display of a carbon control instrument, so that the carbon potential is always kept stable in a process range;
when the process needs to be converted or the feeding needs to be interrupted or the empty furnace needs to be insulated, the opening degree of a furnace door at the inlet of the mesh belt furnace is reduced, the introduction amount of the methanol is finely adjusted according to a carbon control instrument, and the carbon potential is kept stable in the process range;
