Definitions
- the invention relates to the use of a steel for the production of construction tubes for mechanically heavy-duty construction elements, in particular for door reinforcements in automobile construction.
- reinforcing elements are often used in the vehicle doors for stiffening, which partially absorb the kinetic energy of the impacting vehicle and convert it into plastic deformation.
- the steel pipes used for this must meet comparatively high requirements with regard to strength, flexibility and work capacity. The same applies, for example, to construction tubes for the manufacture of stabilizers or other mechanically stressed components.
- Such a construction tubes are usually warmgewalzt ⁇ wherein the final rolling temperature between 900 o C to 1080 o C.
- the required strength properties can depend on the used steel grade can be adjusted by water hardening.
- a known steel which is produced by this process contains, for example, 0.18% C, 0.4% Si and 1.14% Mn (balance: iron and usual impurities).
- the main disadvantage of this process is the additional heat treatment of the steel tube to adjust the mechanical properties. On the one hand, additional heat treatment makes the manufacture of such pipes more expensive.
- the mechanical properties are altered by thermoforming carried out on the pipe in some areas during further processing, for example to form door reinforcement pipes or in the heat affected zone of weld seams, which may be required for assembly, so that the strength properties can inadvertently decrease significantly compared to those of the initial state.
- Another steel is known from DE-40 32 996 A1 for the production of steel profiles which are to be used as door reinforcements and which have an external corrosion protection by galvanizing.
- the steel has the following analysis: 0.18-0.25% C 0.30-0.50% Si 1.30 - 2.00% Mn 0.1 - 0.5% Cr 0.1-0.3% Mo 0.02-0.07% Ti 0.002 - 0.007% B Balance iron and usual impurities
- This steel is a water hardener, the mechanical properties of which therefore only have to be adjusted with a corresponding effort by means of a separate heat treatment after hot rolling. Despite the character of a water hardener, it is possible in the steel pipes made therefrom to protect them against corrosion by galvanizing, without the set strength properties being reduced to an unacceptable degree by the heating that occurs.
- the object of the invention is to propose an air-hardening steel for use in the production of mechanically heavy-duty structural pipes, in particular for automobile construction, which can be produced by a one-step melting process in LD converters and which can already be used in the hot-rolled state due to its good strength properties , ie does not necessarily have to be subjected to a heat treatment before its use in order to meet the mechanical minimum requirements required, for example, for door booster tubes in terms of tensile strength, yield strength and elongation at break.
- a secondary object of the invention is to propose such a steel which, moreover, also has significantly improved properties with regard to cold forming.
- the steel used according to the invention combines the illustrated positive properties of the already known steels for door reinforcement tubes. At the same time, due to the special chemical composition of the steel described here, metallurgical processes in steel production are simplified. In addition, this steel opens up the possibility of cold forming pipes made from it, so that precision steel pipes can also be produced by cold drawing.
- the steel described in accordance with the invention is also suitable for the production of stabilizers, for example, which have hitherto been produced from hardened and tempered and tempered precision steel tubes. They have the task of stiffening the axle bodies of motor vehicles when subjected to torsional loads. For this purpose, the stabilizers must withstand the highest possible number of load cycles in a torsion test with changing loads at a given angle of rotation. Stabilizers can be produced from the steel used according to the invention, which are characterized in that they can be cold drawn after hot rolling.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft die Verwendung eines Stahls zur Herstellung von Konstruktionsrohren für mechanisch stark beanspruchbare Konstruktionselemente, insbesondere für Türverstärkungen im Automobilbau.The invention relates to the use of a steel for the production of construction tubes for mechanically heavy-duty construction elements, in particular for door reinforcements in automobile construction.
Zum Schutz gegen seitliche Aufprallunfälle von Kraftfahrzeugen werden in die Fahrzeugtüren zur Versteifung vielfach Verstärkungselemente eingesetzt, die die kinetische Energie des aufprallenden Fahrzeugs teilweise absorbieren und in plastische Verformung unwandeln. Zur Übernahme dieser Aufgaben müssen die dafür verwendeten Stahlrohre vergleichsweise hohen Anforderungen hinsichtlich Festigkeit, Dehnfähigkeit und Arbeitsvermögen genügen. Ähnliches gilt beispielsweise auch für Konstruktionsrohre zur Herstellung von Stabilisatoren oder sonstigen mechanisch stark beanspruchten Bauteilen.To protect against side impact accidents of motor vehicles, reinforcing elements are often used in the vehicle doors for stiffening, which partially absorb the kinetic energy of the impacting vehicle and convert it into plastic deformation. To take on these tasks, the steel pipes used for this must meet comparatively high requirements with regard to strength, flexibility and work capacity. The same applies, for example, to construction tubes for the manufacture of stabilizers or other mechanically stressed components.
Derartige Konstruktionsrohre werden üblicherweise warmgewalzt` wobei die Endwalztemperatur zwischen 900oC und 1080oC liegt. Die erforderlichen Festigkeitseigenschaften können dabei in Abhängigkeit von der verwendeten Stahlsorte durch eine Wasserhärtung eingestellt werden. Ein bekannter Stahl, der nach diesem Verfahren hergestellt wird, enthält beispielsweise 0,18 % C, 0,4 % Si und 1,14 % Mn (Rest: Eisen und übliche Verunreinigungen). Der wesentliche Nachteil dieses Verfahrensweges liegt in der zusätzlichen Wärmebehandlung des Stahlrohres zur Einstellung der mechanischen Eigenschaften. Einerseits verteuert eine zusätzliche Wärmebehandlung die Herstellung derartiger Rohre. Zum anderen werden die mechanischen Eigenschaften durch am Rohr bereichsweise durchgeführte Warmformgebungen während der Weiterverarbeitung beispielsweise zu Türverstärkerrohren oder in der Wärmeeinflußzone von Schweißnähten, die zur Montage erforderlich sein können, verändert, so daß die Festigkeitseigenschaften gegenüber denen des Ausgangszustandes ungewollt erheblich absinken können.Such a construction tubes are usually warmgewalzt` wherein the final rolling temperature between 900 o C to 1080 o C. The required strength properties can depend on the used steel grade can be adjusted by water hardening. A known steel which is produced by this process contains, for example, 0.18% C, 0.4% Si and 1.14% Mn (balance: iron and usual impurities). The main disadvantage of this process is the additional heat treatment of the steel tube to adjust the mechanical properties. On the one hand, additional heat treatment makes the manufacture of such pipes more expensive. On the other hand, the mechanical properties are altered by thermoforming carried out on the pipe in some areas during further processing, for example to form door reinforcement pipes or in the heat affected zone of weld seams, which may be required for assembly, so that the strength properties can inadvertently decrease significantly compared to those of the initial state.
Aus der DE 37 28 476 Cl und der DE 39 35 965 Cl sind zwei andere Stahlwerkstoffe für Türverstärkerrohre bekannt, die aufgrund ihrer chemischen Zusammensetzung ihre Festigkeitseigenschaften allein durch eine Luftabkühlung aus der Walzhitze heraus erhalten, so daß keine gesonderte Wärmebehandlung mehr erforderlich ist. Die Verwendung dieser Stähle beinhaltet jedoch andere gravierende Nachteile. So können beide großtechnisch im LD-Verfahren nicht in einem einstufigen Erschmelzungsprozeß hergestellt werden. Aufgrund des hohen Anteils an Legierungselementen muß die Einstellung der chemischen Zusammensetzung nämlich in zwei Teilschritten erfolgen, was zwangsläufig entsprechende Kostensteigerungen bei der Vormaterialerzeugung verursacht.From DE 37 28 476 Cl and DE 39 35 965 Cl two other steel materials for door reinforcement tubes are known which, due to their chemical composition, obtain their strength properties solely through air cooling from the rolling heat, so that no separate heat treatment is required. However, the use of these steels has other serious disadvantages. For example, both cannot be produced on a large industrial scale using the LD process in a one-step melting process. Because of the high proportion of alloying elements, the chemical composition has to be adjusted in two steps, which inevitably causes corresponding cost increases in the production of primary materials.
Die chemische Zusammensetzung (in Gewichts-%) dieser beiden Stähle ist wie folgt:
Zur Einstellung der geforderten mechanischen Eigenschaften des Stahls gemäß DE-37 28 476 Cl ist es erforderlich, die Elemente Cr, Ni und Mo in größeren Mengen zuzulegieren. Ein Legierungskonzept auf der Basis dieser Elemente stellt aber allein schon wegen der Materialkosten der Legierungselemente eine vergleichsweise kostspielige Lösung dar.In order to set the required mechanical properties of the steel according to DE-37 28 476 Cl, it is necessary to alloy the elements Cr, Ni and Mo in larger quantities. An alloy concept based on these elements is a comparatively expensive solution if only because of the material costs of the alloy elements.
Ein Effekt, der die Gebrauchseigenschaften des in der DE 39 35 395 Cl beschriebenen Stahls günstig beeinflußt, ist dessen hohe Anlaßbeständigkeit. Diese Eigenschaft unterbindet eine signifikante Verminderung der Festigkeitseigenschaften bei nachfolgenden Warmformgebungen oder aber beim Feuerverzinken. Dagegen ist es als nachteilig anzusehen, daß die Kaltumformbarkeit dieses Stahls wie auch die des Stahles nach DE 37 28 476 Cl außerordentlich eingeschränkt ist, so daß bestimmte Rohrabmessungen, die durch übliche Warmumformung nicht unmittelbar erstellbar sind, aus diesem Stahl nicht produziert werden können.One effect which has a favorable influence on the performance properties of the steel described in DE 39 35 395 Cl is its high tempering resistance. This property prevents a significant reduction in the strength properties in subsequent hot forming or hot-dip galvanizing. On the other hand, it is disadvantageous that the cold formability of this steel as well as that of the steel according to DE 37 28 476 Cl is extremely limited, so that certain pipe dimensions that cannot be produced directly by conventional hot forming cannot be produced from this steel.
Aus der DE-40 32 996 Al ist ein weiterer Stahl bekannt für die Herstellung von Stahlprofilen, die als Türverstärkungen eingesetzt werden sollen und einen äußeren Korrosionsschutz durch Verzinkung aufweisen. Der Stahl weist folgende Analyse auf:
0,18 - 0,25 % C
0,30 - 0,50 % Si
1,30 - 2,00 % Mn
0,1 - 0,5 % Cr
0,1 - 0,3 % Mo
0,02 - 0,07 % Ti
0,002 - 0,007 % B
Rest Eisen und übliche Verunreinigungen
Bei diesem Stahl handelt es sich um einen Wasserhärter, dessen mechanische Eigenschaften also erst mit entsprechendem Aufwand durch eine gesonderte Wärmebehandlung nach dem Warmwalzen eingestellt werden müssen. Trotz des Charakters eines Wasserhärters ist es bei den daraus hergestellten Stahlrohren möglich, diese durch Verzinken gegen Korrosion zu schützen, ohne daß durch die dabei eintretende Erwärmung die eingestellten Festigkeitseigenschaften in unzulässigem Maß vermindert werden.Another steel is known from DE-40 32 996 A1 for the production of steel profiles which are to be used as door reinforcements and which have an external corrosion protection by galvanizing. The steel has the following analysis:
0.18-0.25% C
0.30-0.50% Si
1.30 - 2.00% Mn
0.1 - 0.5% Cr
0.1-0.3% Mo
0.02-0.07% Ti
0.002 - 0.007% B
Balance iron and usual impurities
This steel is a water hardener, the mechanical properties of which therefore only have to be adjusted with a corresponding effort by means of a separate heat treatment after hot rolling. Despite the character of a water hardener, it is possible in the steel pipes made therefrom to protect them against corrosion by galvanizing, without the set strength properties being reduced to an unacceptable degree by the heating that occurs.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, einen lufthärtenden Stahl für die Verwendung zur Herstellung von mechanisch stark beanspruchbaren Konstruktionsrohren, insbesondere für den Automobilbau, vorzuschlagen, der durch ein einstufiges Erschmelzungsverfahren in LD-Konvertern herstellbar ist und der bereits im warmgewalzten Zustand aufgrund seiner guten Festigkeitseigenschaften verwendbar ist, d.h. vor seinem Einsatz nicht unbedingt einer Wärmebehandlung unterzogen werden muß, um die z.B. für Türverstärkerrohre geforderten mechanischen Mindestanforderungen hinsichtlich Zugfestigkeit, Streckgrenze und Bruchdehnung zu erfüllen. Eine Nebenaufgabe der Erfindung liegt darin, einen solchen Stahl vorzuschlagen, der darüberhinaus auch wesentlich verbesserte Eigenschaften bezüglich einer Kaltumformung aufweist.The object of the invention is to propose an air-hardening steel for use in the production of mechanically heavy-duty structural pipes, in particular for automobile construction, which can be produced by a one-step melting process in LD converters and which can already be used in the hot-rolled state due to its good strength properties , ie does not necessarily have to be subjected to a heat treatment before its use in order to meet the mechanical minimum requirements required, for example, for door booster tubes in terms of tensile strength, yield strength and elongation at break. A secondary object of the invention is to propose such a steel which, moreover, also has significantly improved properties with regard to cold forming.
Gelöst wird diese Aufgabe durch einen Stahl mit der im Patentanspruch beschriebenen Zusammensetzung, wobei die Summe der Gehalte an Mn, Cr, Mo und Si mindestens 3,3 % beträgt und das Mengenverhältnis Ti : N auf einen Wert von mindestens 3,4 eingestellt wird.This object is achieved by a steel with the composition described in the patent claim, the sum of the contents of Mn, Cr, Mo and Si being at least 3.3% and the quantitative ratio Ti: N being set to a value of at least 3.4.
Überraschend war es, daß das Ziel der Erfindung mit einfachen Maßnahmen erreicht werden konnte. Gegenüber dem bekannten Stahl gemäß DE 39 35 965 Cl wurde der Mn-Gehalt erheblich abgesenkt und auf der anderen Seite Mindestgehalte an Cr und Mo vorgeschrieben, wodurch der Charakter eines Lufthärters erhalten blieb. Weiterhin wurde zur Gewährleistung einer Durchvergütung und zur Festigkeitssteigerung die Zugabe von B vorgesehen, wobei die Einhaltung der Obergrenze von 0,0035 % wichtig ist für die Kaltumformbarkeit der aus diesem Stahl hergestellten Konstruktionsrohre. Dem vorgeschriebenen Si-Gehalt kommt für die Erreichung der hohen Festigkeitswerte ebenfalls eine wesentliche Bedeutung zu. Schließlich ist noch auf die Einstellung des Mindestverhältnisses Ti : N von 3,4 hinzuweisen, wobei der N-Gehalt auf einen Wert zwischen 0,002 % und 0,015 % zu begrenzen ist.It was surprising that the aim of the invention could be achieved with simple measures. Compared to the known steel according to DE 39 35 965 Cl, the Mn content was considerably reduced and, on the other hand, minimum Cr and Mo contents were prescribed, whereby the character of an air hardener was retained. In addition, B was added to ensure through-hardening and to increase the strength, whereby compliance with the upper limit of 0.0035% is important for the cold formability of the construction pipes made from this steel. The prescribed Si content is also of major importance for achieving the high strength values. Finally, the setting of the minimum ratio Ti: N of 3.4 should be pointed out, the N content being limited to a value between 0.002% and 0.015%.
Der erfindungsgemäß verwendete Stahl vereint die dargestellten positiven Eigenschaften der bereits bekannten Stähle für Türverstärkerrohre. Gleichzeitig werden aufgrund der besonderen chemischen Zusammensetzung des hier beschriebenen Stahls metallurgische Verfahrensabläufe bei der Stahlherstellung vereinfacht. Darüberhinaus eröffnet dieser Stahl die Möglichkeit, daraus gefertigte Rohre kalt zu verformen, so daß auch Präzisionsstahlrohre mittels Kaltziehen hergestellt werden können.The steel used according to the invention combines the illustrated positive properties of the already known steels for door reinforcement tubes. At the same time, due to the special chemical composition of the steel described here, metallurgical processes in steel production are simplified. In addition, this steel opens up the possibility of cold forming pipes made from it, so that precision steel pipes can also be produced by cold drawing.

Außer für Türverstärkerrohre eignet sich der erfindungsgemäß beschriebene Stahl auch für die Herstellung von z.B. Stabilisatoren, die bisher aus vergüteten, also gehärteten und angelassenen Präzisionsstahlrohren gefertigt werden. Sie haben die Aufgabe, Achskörper von Kraftfahrzeugen bei Torsionsbeanspruchungen zu versteifen. Zu diesem Zweck müssen die Stabilisatoren im Torsionsversuch mit wechselnder Last bei vorgegebenem Verdrehwinkel eine möglichst hohe Lastwechselzahl aushalten. Aus dem erfindungsgemäß verwendeten Stahl können Stabilisatoren hergestellt werden, die sich dadurch auszeichnen, daß diese nach dem Warmwalzen kaltgezogen werden können.In addition to door reinforcement tubes, the steel described in accordance with the invention is also suitable for the production of stabilizers, for example, which have hitherto been produced from hardened and tempered and tempered precision steel tubes. They have the task of stiffening the axle bodies of motor vehicles when subjected to torsional loads. For this purpose, the stabilizers must withstand the highest possible number of load cycles in a torsion test with changing loads at a given angle of rotation. Stabilizers can be produced from the steel used according to the invention, which are characterized in that they can be cold drawn after hot rolling.
Eine weitere vorteilhafte Verwendung des beschriebenen Stahls ist im Hinblick auf die Herstellung von Rohren für Fahrradrahmen oder beispielsweise für Kleiderständer zu sehen, die aus Gewichtsgründen möglichst dünnwandig sein sollen.Another advantageous use of the steel described can be seen with regard to the production of tubes for bicycle frames or for clothes racks, for example, which should be as thin-walled as possible for reasons of weight.
In den nachfolgenden Ausführungsbeispielen wird die Erfindung näher beschrieben.The invention is described in more detail in the following exemplary embodiments.

Die Rundstranggußabschnitte wurden zu Rohren der Abmessung 25 x 5 mm warmgewalzt und nach dem letzten Verformungsschritt gezielt an Luft abgekühlt. Aufgrund der speziell abgestimmten Legierungszusammensetzung wiesen die Rohre bereits im warmgewalzten Zustand die für ihre Verwendung als Türverstärkerelemente erforderlichen Eigenschaften auf.

Wenn über die vorstehend geschilderten Anforderungen an die mechanischen Eigenschaften von Türverstärkerrohren hinaus noch höhere Werte eingestellt werden sollen, wenn also beispielsweise ein besonderes Biegeverhalten in einem spezifizierten quasi-statischen Biegeversuch gewährleistet werden soll, so kann dies durch eine anschließend durchgeführte geringe Kaltverformung der Rohre erreicht werden. Nach einer solchermaßen durchgeführten Behandlung werden die mechanischen Eigenschaften der Rohre, insbesondere die Streckgrenze, infolge der Kaltverfestigung noch verbessert, so daß auch schärfste Anforderungen an das Biegeverhalten erfüllt werden können. Die Werte der mechanischen Eigenschaften betrugen nach dem Kaltrichten an den erfindungsgemäß hergestellten Rohren:
