Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of petroleum drilling tools, and relates to a heat treatment method of a low-carbon low-alloy steel bit leg bearing casting and a bit leg bearing.
Background
The tricone bit is a very wide drilling tool for petroleum drilling, and the bit leg bearing is made of a low-carbon alloy forging material conventionally and manufactured by using a quenching and low-temperature tempering heat treatment process after carburization, so that the high hardness, high wear resistance and high matrix toughness of the surface of the bit leg bearing are ensured. For some special-structure bit leg bearings, a casting process can be used when the design structure cannot be realized by forging or the cost is too high. However, the casting material has no rolling and forging compression process compared with the forging material, and too coarse grains and structures lead to larger brittleness of the material.
At present, the material for the bearing of the bit leg is mainly low-carbon low-alloy steel, the representative mark is ZG20CrNiMo, and the main component is C:0.17-0.21%; cr:0.9-1.1%; ni:0.6-0.9%; mo:0.25-0.35%; mn:0.60-0.90%; si:0.17-0.37%. S is less than or equal to 0.025 percent; p less than or equal to 0.025%; less than or equal to 0.20 percent of Cu and the balance of Fe. When the material is used for a bit leg bearing, the conventional low-temperature tempering heat treatment process for carburizing and quenching the forging material is adopted, so that the toughness of the bit leg bearing matrix is too low to meet the performance requirement of SY/T5164 tricone bit on cast bit legs. In the prior art, a tempering heat treatment process is generally adopted to improve the plasticity and toughness of a casting material matrix, but the depth and hardness of a hardening layer on the surface of a bit leg bearing can not meet the performance requirements of products when the tempering process is adopted, namely, the requirements of cast bit leg products on the plastic toughness and the performance of the hardening layer on the surface of the core of the bit leg bearing can not be met at the same time according to the conventional heat treatment process.
Disclosure of Invention
In order to solve the problem that the surface performance and the core performance of the traditional low-carbon low-alloy steel bit leg bearing casting cannot be considered, the invention provides a composite heat treatment process capable of effectively improving the hardness of a hardening layer on the surface of the low-carbon low-alloy steel bit leg bearing casting, the depth of the hardening layer and the plasticity and toughness of a matrix.
The technical scheme provided by the invention is as follows:
in a first aspect, the invention provides a heat treatment method for a low-carbon low-alloy steel bit leg bearing casting, comprising the following steps:
and (3) integral quenching: after carburizing the cast-state bit leg bearing, placing the cast-state bit leg bearing in a quenching furnace, heating to 870-890 ℃ under a carburizing atmosphere with the carbon concentration of 0.4% -0.6%, preserving heat, discharging, immersing in quenching oil, and cooling for 20-30 minutes;
high temperature tempering: placing the bearing leg bearing subjected to integral quenching in a tempering furnace, heating to 570-590 ℃ under a protective atmosphere, preserving heat, discharging, and air-cooling to room temperature;
surface induction hardening: placing the high-temperature tempered bit leg bearing on high-frequency induction quenching equipment, and moving the bit leg bearing and an induction coil at a relative speed of 2-4mm/s under the power of 5-7KHz so as to ensure that the depth of an induction quenching hardening layer is higher than that of a carburized layer;
low temperature tempering: and (3) placing the bearing leg bearing with the surface induction quenching in a tempering furnace, heating to 180-200 ℃, preserving heat, discharging, and air-cooling to room temperature.
As a preferable mode of the above-mentioned technical scheme, the temperature of the whole quenching is 880 ℃.
Preferably, the temperature of the first tempering is 580 ℃.
As a preferable mode of the above technical scheme, the low-temperature tempering temperature is 190 ℃.
As a preferable aspect of the above-described aspect, the carburizing treatment includes:
a. carrying out strong permeation treatment on the bearing of the bit leg under the carburizing atmosphere with the carbon concentration of 1.20% -1.30% and the temperature of 920-940 ℃;
b. c, performing diffusion treatment on the bearing leg treated in the step a under the carburizing atmosphere with the carbon concentration of 0.90% -1.10% and the temperature of 890-910 ℃;
c. and d, cooling the bearing leg treated in the step b to below 300 ℃ under the protective atmosphere, discharging, and then cooling to room temperature in an air way.
As the preferable technical scheme, the carburizing agent adopted in the carburizing atmosphere is one or more of methanol, ethane, propane, ethanol, propanol and ethyl acetate.
As the optimization of the technical scheme, a cleaning step is further arranged between the integral quenching step and the high-temperature tempering step, the cleaning liquid adopted in the cleaning step is 100+/-10 ℃, and the cleaning time is 0.5-1.5 hours.
As the preferable material of the technical scheme, the low-carbon low-alloy steel bit leg bearing is ZG20CrNiMo alloy, and comprises the following components in percentage by weight: 0.17% -0.21% of C;0.9% -1.1% Cr;0.6% -0.9% Ni;0.25% -0.35% Mo;0.60% -0.90% Mn;0.17% -0.37% Si; s is less than or equal to 0.025 percent; p less than or equal to 0.025%; less than or equal to 0.20 percent of Cu and the balance of Fe.
As the preferable scheme, the coil sprays water with the temperature of 20-50 ℃ on the rear side of the induction coil, and continuously spray-quenching is synchronously carried out on the heated part until the surface induction quenching is completed.
Preferably, the protective atmosphere is nitrogen.
In a second aspect, the invention provides a low carbon low alloy steel leg bearing prepared by the heat treatment method.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the following advantages:
the invention solves the problem that the casting of the low-carbon low-alloy steel bit leg bearing cannot consider both the plasticity and the toughness of the matrix and the surface wear resistance, and ensures the plasticity and the toughness of the matrix of the casting of the low-carbon low-alloy bit leg bearing, so that the casting has better service performance when being acted by complex impact load. In addition, the hardness and depth of the hard layer on the surface of the bit leg bearing are obviously improved, and the wear resistance of the bit leg bearing is greatly improved. In addition, the high-frequency induction quenching of the surface of the bit leg bearing can lead the surface of the bit leg bearing to form larger residual compressive stress, thereby improving the fatigue resistance of the bit leg bearing. In one aspect, for a rolling bit leg bearing, surface residual compressive stress can increase rolling bit leg bearing surface contact fatigue strength. On the other hand, for a sliding bit leg bearing, the surface residual compressive stress can reduce the detrimental effects of the sliding adhesion notch on fatigue performance. The usability of the bit leg bearing is greatly improved.

surface induction hardening: and (3) placing the high-temperature tempered bit leg bearing on induction quenching equipment, and enabling the bit leg bearing and an induction coil to move at a relative speed of 2-4mm/s under the power of 5-7KHz, and synchronously spraying water to cool the coil until surface quenching is finished. The adoption of the power and the moving speed can ensure that the depth of the induction hardening layer is higher than that of the carburized layer.
Tempering at low temperature; and (3) placing the bearing leg bearing with the surface induction quenching in a tempering furnace, heating to 180-200 ℃, preserving heat, discharging, and air-cooling to room temperature.
According to the technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the invention, the carburization treatment process for the as-cast bit leg bearing with the material brand ZG20CrNiMo comprises the following steps:
a. placing the cast-state bit leg bearing in a carburizing furnace, and performing strong carburizing treatment under the carburizing atmosphere with the carbon concentration of 1.20-1.30% and the temperature of 920-940 ℃;

The carburizing agent adopted in the carburizing atmosphere is any one or more of methanol, ethane, propane, ethanol, propanol and ethyl acetate.
Step a is a strong infiltration process, wherein carbon atoms can be fully diffused to the surface of the bit leg bearing, so that a carburized layer with a certain depth is formed on the surface; step b, reducing the carbon concentration in the carburizing atmosphere, so that the carbon gradient of the carburized layer of the bit leg bearing is more gentle, the hardness gradient of the final carburized layer is improved, the residual austenite content of the carburized layer after quenching is reduced, and the risk of microcrack formation on the near surface of the bit leg bearing under high carbon and high hardness is reduced; and c, cooling under the protection of nitrogen, so that the surface decarburization of the carburized layer can be reduced.
According to the invention, after carburization, the bit leg bearing is subjected to integral quenching: and (3) placing the carburized bit leg bearing in a quenching furnace, heating to 870-890 ℃, keeping the temperature, discharging, immersing in quenching oil, and cooling for 20-30 minutes, wherein the stirring speed of the quenching oil is 800-900 revolutions per minute. The carbon concentration is maintained when the quenching and the heat preservation are ensured, and the decarburization in the quenching and the heat preservation process of the carburized surface can be reduced.
After the integral quenching, the bearing of the bit leg is subjected to high-temperature tempering treatment, and is put into a box tempering furnace to be tempered at high temperature under the protection of nitrogen. The high-temperature tempering heat preservation temperature is 570-590 ℃, and the high-temperature tempering heat preservation is finished, and the furnace outlet air cooling is finished. The integral quenching and high temperature tempering treatment improves the plasticity and toughness of the core part of the bit leg. At the moment, the core metallographic phase of the bit leg bearing mainly comprises tempered sorbite and ferrite tissues, the metallographic phase of the carburized layer mainly comprises tempered sorbite, and a certain amount of residual austenite exists.
After high-temperature tempering, the bit leg bearing is subjected to high-frequency induction quenching on the carburized layer surface layer. The induction coil is 3-5mm away from the outer circle surface of the bit leg bearing, the heating frequency is 5-7KHz, and the coil and the bit leg bearing relatively move at the speed of 2-4 mm/s. Meanwhile, tap water at 20-50 ℃ is sprayed from the coil at the rear side of the induction coil, and the heated part on the bit leg bearing is subjected to uninterrupted spray quenching synchronously until the surface induction quenching heating is completed. The depth of the surface induction quenching hardening layer is ensured to be higher than that of the carburized layer by controlling the power and the moving speed, so that the hardness of the hardening layer changes in a gradient way along with the gradient change of carbon.
And after the surface induction quenching is finished, carrying out low-temperature tempering on the bit leg bearing. The low-temperature tempering and heat preserving temperature is 180-190 ℃, and the heat preserving is finished and the furnace outlet air cooling is carried out.
In the carburizing treatment process, the carburizing heat-preserving time and the carbon concentration can be adjusted according to the requirement. The whole quenching, high temperature tempering and low temperature tempering heat preservation time can be determined according to the size of the bit leg bearing and the charging amount, and belongs to the conventional technical means of the person skilled in the art.

TABLE 1 plasticity and toughness of bit leg bearing substrates after heat treatment of examples and comparative examples of the present invention
The results of fig. 1 show that the hardness and depth of the hardened layer of an as-cast bit leg bearing is higher than the bit leg bearing surface of a conventional bit leg bearing carburization + bulk quench + low temperature tempering process (comparative example 1). Referring to table 1 in fig. 1, after the heat treatment of carburization, integral quenching and high temperature tempering, the base of the bit leg bearing in comparative example 2 has plasticity and toughness comparable to those of the example, but the hardness of the hardened layer of the bit leg bearing surface is too low, which greatly reduces the wear resistance of the bit leg bearing. In addition, fig. 1 also shows that, when the induction hardening layer cannot completely cover the carburized layer (comparative example 3) during the surface induction hardening process after carburization, integral quenching and high temperature tempering, a steep drop in hardness occurs at the induction hardening layer and non-induction hardening interface, and when the hardness is distributed on the bearing surface of the bit leg, early cracking and flaking occur on the bearing surface of the bit leg during use. Particularly when applied to rolling bit leg bearings, rolling fatigue failure of the bit leg bearing can be easily caused if the interface occurs at the maximum dynamic shear stress used by the rolling bearing. That is, by adopting the heat treatment process, the problem of insufficient toughness of the base body of the bit leg bearing casting is solved, and meanwhile, the depth and the hardness of a hardening layer on the surface of the bit leg bearing casting can be remarkably improved, and the wear resistance and the fatigue resistance of the bit leg bearing are further improved.
The foregoing description of the preferred embodiments of the invention is not intended to be limiting, but rather is intended to cover all modifications, equivalents, and alternatives falling within the spirit and principles of the invention.
