Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Verfahren zum Richten eines länglichen Metallteiles nach den im Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1 beschriebenen Verfahrensschritten.The invention relates to a method for straightening an elongated metal part according to the method steps described in the preamble of claim 1.
Ein derartiges Verfahren ist aus der DE-A 36 05 201 (bzw. FR-A 25 78 457) zum Richten langgestreckter Metallprofile von nicht-rotationssymetrischen Querschnitten bekannt. Hierbei wird das Metallprofil zwischen den eingespannten Endbereichen während der elastischen Verformung dieses Zwischenbereiches in Längsrichtung auf Zug belastet und ferner zur Profilkorrektur tordiert. Während das Tordieren lediglich der Profilkorrektur dient, ermöglicht die zusätzliche Zugbelastung bzw. das Streckziehen ein bleibendes Ausrichten des Metallprofils ausschließlich im elastischen Verformungsbereich. Für Metallteile mit rotationssymetrischen Querschnitten ist es aus der DE-A 23 40 153 zur bleibenden Ausrichtung bekannt, das Metallteil während des elastischen Richtzustandes bis in den plastischen Bereich hinein zu tordieren.Such a method is known from DE-A 36 05 201 (or FR-A 25 78 457) for straightening elongated metal profiles of non-rotationally symmetrical cross sections. Here, the metal profile between the clamped end regions is loaded in tension in the longitudinal direction during the elastic deformation of this intermediate region and further twisted to correct the profile. While twisting is only used to correct the profile, the additional tensile load or stretching allows the metal profile to be permanently aligned only in the elastic deformation area. For metal parts with rotationally symmetrical cross sections, it is known from DE-A 23 40 153 for permanent alignment to twist the metal part into the plastic region during the elastic straightening state.
Schließlich ist es aus der DE-Z "Metall", 1980, H.4, Seite 320 - 323, bekannt, metallische Bauteile durch örtlich gezieltes Kugelstrahlen zu richten, wobei das Strahlen eine plastisch umgeformte Oberflächenschicht mit Druckeigenspannungen ergibt.Finally, it is known from DE-Z "Metall", 1980, H.4, pages 320-323 to direct metallic components by locally targeted shot peening, the blasting giving a plastically deformed surface layer with residual compressive stresses.
Für dynamisch hochbelastete, längliche Metallteile von nicht-rotationssymetrischem Querschnitt sind die bekannten Richt-Verfahren, insbesondere im Hinblick auf unterschiedliche Spannungsgradienten wenig zufriedenstellend. Als ein derartiges Bauteil kann das Pleuel einer Hubkolbenmaschine betrachtet werden. Vor allem für übliche Hubkolben-Brennkraftmaschinen sind die Pleuel geschmiedete Stahlteile. Die in einem Gesenk geschmiedeten Pleuel werden unmittelbar nach der Entnahme aus dem Gesenk in einem Stanzwerkzeug vom Gesenkgrat befreit und mit der vorhandenen Schmiedewärme einem Vergütungsprozeß zugeführt. Vor der spanabhebenden Bearbeitung der Pleuel werden diese gerichtet. Hierbei wird das Pleuel in die zu richtende Lage gedrückt bzw. geklopft, wobei um das Maß der elastischen Rückfederung überbogen werden muß. Dieses Überbiegen wirkt sich nachteilige auf die dynamische Festigkeit des Pleuels aus. Dieser nachteilige Einfluß auf die Sicherheit des Bauteiles ist durch eine entsprechende bauliche Bemessung zu berücksichtigen.The known straightening methods are unsatisfactory for dynamically highly stressed, elongated metal parts with a non-rotationally symmetrical cross section, in particular with regard to different stress gradients. The connecting rod of a reciprocating piston machine can be considered as such a component. The connecting rods are forged steel parts, particularly for conventional reciprocating piston internal combustion engines. The connecting rods forged in a die are freed from the die burr in a punching tool immediately after removal from the die and fed to a tempering process with the available forging heat. Before the connecting rods are machined, they are straightened. Here, the connecting rod is pressed or knocked into the position to be straightened, the amount of elastic springback having to be bent over. This overbending adversely affects the dynamic strength of the connecting rod. This disadvantageous influence on the safety of the component must be taken into account by means of an appropriate structural design.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, das gattungsgemäße Verfahren zum Richten eines länglichen Metallteiles derart abzuwandeln, daß ein längliches Metallteil von beliebigem Querschnitt, wie z.B. ein Pleuel einer Hubkolbenmaschine, einwandfrei in einfacher und kostengünstiger Weise gerichtet wird, wobei mit dem Richten eine Steigerung der dynamischen Festigkeit, insbesondere der Dauerfestigkeit, verbunden ist.The invention has for its object to modify the generic method for straightening an elongated metal part such that an elongated metal part of any cross-section, such as a connecting rod of a reciprocating piston machine, is properly straightened in a simple and inexpensive manner, with the straightening an increase in dynamic Strength, especially the fatigue strength, is connected.
Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe wird das Metallteil in einem Zwischenbereich während des Streckziehens in Längsrichtung - maximal bis zur Streckgrenze - an der Oberfläche kalt verformt.To solve this problem, the metal part is cold-formed on the surface in an intermediate region during the stretching in the longitudinal direction - at most up to the yield point.
Ein Vorteil der Erfindung liegt darin, daß beim Richten unter Vorspannung bei gleichzeitiger Kaltverformung der freien Oberfläche des Metallteiles dieses beim Richten nicht überbogen werden muß. Mit der Kaltverformung der Oberfläche wird der Werkstoff des Metallteiles in oberflächennahen Bereichen in überwiegend longitudinaler Richtung plastiziert. Bei Wegnahme der Zugbelastung vom Metallteil nach vollzogener Kaltverformung der Oberfläche federn nur die inneren Werkstoffbereiche elastisch zurück. In den plastizierten äußeren Werkstoffbereichen treten dadurch hohe Druckeigenspannungen in Längsrichtung auf. Mit der Kaltverformung der Oberfläche wird somit der durch elastische Verformung und durch überlagerte Zugbelastung erreichte Richtzustand des Metallteiles bzw. des Pleuels gewissermaßen eingefroren.An advantage of the invention is that when straightening under tension with simultaneous cold deformation of the free surface of the metal part, it does not have to be bent over during straightening. With the cold deformation of the surface, the material of the metal part in areas near the surface becomes predominantly longitudinal Plasticized direction. If the tensile load is removed from the metal part after the cold deformation of the surface has been carried out, only the inner material areas spring back elastically. As a result, high compressive residual stresses occur in the longitudinal direction in the plasticized outer material areas. With the cold deformation of the surface, the straightening state of the metal part or of the connecting rod achieved by elastic deformation and by superimposed tensile load is frozen to a certain extent.
Weiter weist das erfindungsgemäße Richten mit Kaltverformung der Oberfläche des Metallteiles bzw. des Pleuels den weiteren Vorteil auf, daß in oberflächennahen Bereichen des Pleuels gegebene Schmiedefehler sowie beim Stanzen des Gesenkgrates entstehende Überlappungen und ferner Oberflächenfehler von geringer Tiefe in ihren festigkeitsmindernden Auswirkungen durch das Kaltverformen der Oberfläche kompensiert werden und somit der Ausschuß wesentlich verringert wird. Im Bereich der als Kerben wirkenden Oberflächenrisse werden mit der Kaltverformung Druckeigenspannungszustände erzeugt, die die dynamische Festigkeit steigern. Diese Steigerung kann in weiterer vorteilhafter Weise für eine nicht unerhebliche Gewichtsreduzierung bei unveränderter Betriebssicherheit des jeweiligen Bauteiles genutzt werden.Furthermore, the straightening according to the invention with cold deformation of the surface of the metal part or of the connecting rod has the further advantage that there are forging errors in near-surface areas of the connecting rod and overlaps occurring when punching the die burr and furthermore surface defects of small depth in their strength-reducing effects due to the cold deformation of the surface can be compensated for and thus the committee is significantly reduced. In the area of the surface cracks, which act as notches, the cold forming creates residual compressive stress states that increase the dynamic strength. This increase can be used in a further advantageous manner for a not inconsiderable reduction in weight with unchanged operational reliability of the respective component.
Zur Erzielung des elastischen Richtzustandes kann die Zugkraft unter Beachtung der Formzahl (αK) für das jeweilige Metallteil (Pleuel) max. bis zu der im Bereich eines im Metallteil verursachten Kerbgrundes auftretenden Streckgrenze (σS) gesteigert werden. Hierbei kann für eine günstige Werkstoffausnützung die Zugkraft bzw. Zugbelastung dehnungsgesteuert werden. Ist das längliche Metallteil vorzugsweise ein als vergütetes Schmiederohteil vorgegebenes Pleuel, so kann die Zugkraft bzw. Zugbelastung im wesentlichen durch die aus der Qualität der Vergütung resultierenden Streckgrenze bestimmt werden. Mit einer solchermaßen dehnungsgesteuert bestimmten Zugbelastung ergibt sich in vorteilhafter Weise zugleich eine Qualitätskontrolle. Um für die Pleuel eine hohe Qualität sicherzustellen, können die zulässigen Abweichungen der dehnungsgesteuerten Zugbelastung gering gewählt werden. Andererseits läßt die Streuung der dehnungsgesteuerten Zugbelastungen einen unmittelbaren Rückschluß auf die Qualität des Vergütungsprozesses bzw. des Querschnittes zu. Schließlich wird die für das Richten des jeweiligen Bauteiles vorgeschlagene Kaltverformung der Oberfläche in einfacher und kostengünstiger Weise nach Anspruch 3 durch das bekannte Kugelstrahlen erzielt. Wie jedoch Anspruch 2 weiter ausweist, ist die Kaltverformung der Oberfläche des jeweiligen Bauteiles nicht auf das Kugelstrahlen allein beschränkt.To achieve the elastic straightening state, the tensile force can be taken into account for the respective metal part (connecting rod), taking into account the shape number (α K ). can be increased up to the yield point (σ S ) occurring in the area of a notch base caused in the metal part. In this case, the tensile force or tensile load can be strain-controlled for a favorable use of material. If the elongated metal part is preferably a connecting rod specified as a tempered forged blank, the tensile force or tensile load can essentially be determined by the quality the yield strength resulting from the remuneration. With such a tensile load determined in such a way, a quality control is advantageously achieved at the same time. In order to ensure high quality for the connecting rods, the permissible deviations of the strain-controlled tensile load can be selected to be low. On the other hand, the spread of the strain-controlled tensile loads allows a direct conclusion to be drawn about the quality of the compensation process or the cross-section. Finally, the cold deformation of the surface proposed for straightening the respective component is achieved in a simple and inexpensive manner according to claim 3 by the known shot peening. However, as further stated in claim 2, the cold deformation of the surface of the respective component is not limited to shot peening alone.
Nachfolgend wird das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren zum Richten eines länglichen Metallteiles am Beispiel des Richtens eines Pleuels für eine Hubkolbenmaschine beschrieben.The method according to the invention for straightening an elongated metal part is described below using the example of straightening a connecting rod for a reciprocating piston machine.
Ein Pleuel für hochdrehende Hubkolben-Brennkraftmaschine ist aus Stahl und in einem Gesenk geschmiedet. Unmittelbar nach Entnahme aus dem Gesenk wird der Gesenkgrat mittels eines Stanzwerkzeuges vom Pleuel entfernt. Das noch schmiedewarme Pleuel wird einem Vergütungsprozeß zugeführt. Insbesondere durch ungleichmäßige Abfuhr beim Auskühlen des vergüteten Pleuels unterliegt dieses einem Verzug. Vor der spanabhebenden Bearbeitung, insbesondere der Lagerbohrungen in beiden Pleuelaugen, muß das Pleuel gerichtet werden.A connecting rod for high-speed reciprocating internal combustion engines is made of steel and forged in a die. Immediately after removal from the die, the die ridge is removed from the connecting rod using a punching tool. The connecting rod, which is still hot, is fed into a remuneration process. In particular due to uneven removal when the tempered connecting rod cools, it is subject to delay. The connecting rod must be straightened before machining, especially the bearing bores in both connecting rod eyes.
Das im schmiederohen, jedoch vergüteten Zustand mit Gratnaht und Oberflächenfehlern vorliegende Stahl-Pleuel wird in einer Vorrichtung an beiden Pleuelaugen geklemmt angeordnet. Beide Klemmeinrichtungen der Vorrichtung sind so ausgebildet und angeordnet, daß beide Pleuelaugen zueinander ausgerichtet werden, wobei dieses Ausrichten unter elastischer Verformung des die Pleuelaugen verbindenden Pleuelschaftes erfolgt. Anschließend wird der elastisch verformte Pleuelschaft mittels der Klemmeinrichtungen auf Zug belastet, wobei die Zugbelastung dehnungsgesteuert bis zur Streckgrenze des vergüteten Pleuels gesteigert wird. Während der dem elastischen Richtzustand überlagerten Zugbelastung durch eine der Streckgrenze entsprechende statische Zugkraft wird die Oberfläche des Pleuelschaftes und seiner Übergänge zu den Pleuelaugen mittels Kugelstrahlen kalt verformt.The steel connecting rod, which is in the forge-high but tempered condition with a ridge seam and surface defects, is clamped in a device on both connecting rod eyes arranged. Both clamping devices of the device are designed and arranged in such a way that both connecting rod eyes are aligned with one another, this alignment taking place with elastic deformation of the connecting rod shaft connecting the connecting rod eyes. The elastically deformed connecting rod shaft is then subjected to tension by means of the clamping devices, the tensile load being increased in a strain-controlled manner up to the yield point of the hardened connecting rod. During the tensile load superimposed on the elastic straightening state by a static tensile force corresponding to the yield point, the surface of the connecting rod shaft and its transitions to the connecting rod eyes are cold-deformed by means of shot peening.
Mit der unter Zugspannung gestrahlten Bauteiloberfläche wird eine bleibende Ausrichtung des Pleuels nach Entnahme aus der Vorrichtung erzielt.With the component surface blasted under tension, a permanent alignment of the connecting rod is achieved after removal from the device.
Weiter wird mit der Kaltverformung der Oberfläche die Dauerfestigkeit, insbesondere die Dauerschwingfestigkeit, des Pleuels erhöht. Weiter wird mit der dehnungsgesteuerten Zugbelastung des vergüteten Pleuels zugleich eine Qualitätskontrolle erzielt.Furthermore, the fatigue strength, in particular the fatigue strength, of the connecting rod is increased with the cold deformation of the surface. A quality control is also achieved with the strain-controlled tensile load on the hardened connecting rod.
