Description

Laser impact combined strengthening process for improving contact fatigue performance of bearing
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of laser shock reinforcement, in particular to a laser shock combined reinforcement process for improving contact fatigue performance of a bearing.
Background
High-end bearings such as aero-engines, gas turbines, steam turbines, high-speed rails and the like are continuously improved along with the continuous improvement of performance technical indexes of the whole equipment, and the performance requirements of the bearings are developing to high DN values, high-temperature environments, heavy loads, long service lives, high reliability and the like. The bearing is used as a supporting and transmitting part of the whole rotor system, so that the faults of abrasion scratch, contact fatigue fracture, clamping shaft, shaft locking and the like easily occur, and the operation safety of the rotating system equipment is seriously influenced. According to the statistical data result of the aviation industry failure analysis center in China, the failure rate of the aviation bearing in the domestic aviation bearing failure case, which is directly caused by abrasion, contact fatigue and the like, is about more than 20 percent in recent 10 years.
During the working process of the bearing, the roller rolls on the raceway at a high speed and with heavy load, and the contact fatigue failure of the raceway surface material cannot be avoided, and especially when the raceway surface is damaged by abrasion, scratch and the like, the crack initiation and fracture process of the contact fatigue can be further accelerated. Therefore, how to effectively modify the bearing raceway surface and improve the rolling contact fatigue performance thereof is important.
The laser shock peening technique (Laser Shock Peening, LSP) is a surface plastic peening technique by short pulse (nanosecond) high power (GW/cm) 2 The level) laser interacts with substances to generate high-pressure (GPa magnitude) plasma shock waves, and the mechanical effect of the shock waves is utilized to enable the surface layer of the metal material to generate plastic deformation, so that residual compressive stress is formed, microstructure is improved, and the fatigue performance of the material is remarkably improved.
However, as in the conventional mechanical shot peening, a large number of plastic deformation pits are formed in the surface treatment area of the material, which results in an increase in the surface roughness of the material and the uniformity of plastic deformation cannot be ensured. For the high-end bearing, the raceway surface finish is extremely high because the raceway works under high-speed and heavy-load conditions for a long time, and the contact fatigue failure of the bearing raceway can be accelerated due to large surface roughness or uneven material hardness.
Therefore, the application of laser shock peening to the raceway portion of the high-end bearing is urgent to provide an innovative process which is feasible in engineering and has multiple aspects, on one hand, the degree and depth of plastic deformation are required to be ensured, and on the other hand, the problems of surface roughness increase and plastic deformation uniformity are required to be eliminated, so that the rolling contact fatigue performance of the bearing is remarkably improved.
