Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for producing a high-pressure storage steel from steel for fuel injection systems, according to the preamble of claim 1 and a high pressure storage tube according to claim 6.
  • High-pressure storage pipes for fuel injection systems of internal combustion engines are also referred to as common-rail system.
  • the pressure generation and the fuel injection are decoupled from each other in the common rail system.
  • a separate high-pressure pump continuously generates pressure which is stored in the central high-pressure accumulator independently of the injection sequence. From this reservoir, high-pressure lines lead to the individual injectors, which are assigned to the engine cylinders. The built-up pressure is permanently available in the fuel line.
  • These composite tubes consist of a relatively thin-walled inner and a relatively thick-walled outer tube part, which are connected to one another via a press fit.
  • the press fit is achieved, for example, by cold drawing ( DE 197 16 659 C2 ) generated.
  • the inner tube part is made of a high-alloy, corrosion-resistant and high-strength steel in direct contact with the high-pressure fuel mixture, while the outer tube part usually consists of a non-alloyed or low-alloyed steel.
  • High-pressure accumulator pipes which have no line function but essentially storage function, must, in addition to the required mechanical properties, have a high fatigue strength in order to withstand the high and pulsating pressures present during operation. This requires an excellent with a very low roughness provided inside pipe surface, which can not be achieved with the known production method for high-pressure storage pipes. For example, roughness values of R z ⁇ 1.0 ⁇ m and R a ⁇ 0.2 ⁇ m should be achieved.
  • High-pressure storage tubes are z. B. from the DE 10 2004 030 394 B3 and the DE 199 36 685 A1 known.
  • the two-time drawing process involves high costs, the tubes often lack sufficient surface quality and marginal zone properties, and costly autofrettage is also required.
  • the DE 103 03 853 A1 known high pressure storage tube it is a composite tube of two pipe parts that are connected by heating or shrinkage. Another disadvantage here is that the inner tube part is made deep drilled.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a method for producing a high pressure storage steel of high fatigue strength for fuel injection systems, which overcomes the disadvantages of the known manufacturing method.
  • a method is used in which the high-pressure accumulator tube is formed as a composite tube, wherein a first inner tube part is inserted into a second outer tube part with little play, and the inner tube part by mechanical deformation without splitting and frictionally connected to the outer tube part becomes.
  • the mechanical forming consists of a rolling process in which the inner tube part using an oversized rolling tool moved therein, a plastic and the outer tube part undergoes elastic stretching, and after the forming process on the elastic resilience of the outer tube part, the inner tube part one of the operational pressurization adapted compressive residual stress is applied.
  • Tubular rolling is a method based on the principle of roll rolling with rolling interference in mated tube parts. This leads to a local expansion of the inner tube part in a matched outer tube part.
  • the inner tube part is plastically expanded by the rolling tool, which moves axially through the inner tube part with rolling interference.
  • the outer tube part is elastically deformed by the plastic expansion of the inner tube part, so that adjusts a high surface pressure after the spring back of the outer tube part in the joint gap and thus results in a frictional connection.
  • the compressive stresses on the inner tube part introduced by the rolling process have a positive effect on the fatigue strength of the component. This can cause that the required in the known methods autofrettage treatment to increase the residual compressive stresses on the component or a complex additional smoothing of the inner surface with this method can be omitted depending on the requirements, so that the manufacturing cost can be further reduced. Even a time-consuming deep drilling process is no longer necessary.
  • Table 1 shows by way of example the chemical composition for such a steel: Table 1 Chemical Analysis (%) C Si Mn P S Not a word Cr N Ni ⁇ 0.07 ⁇ 1.00 ⁇ 2.00 ⁇ 0.045 ⁇ 0.015 ⁇ 2.50 16.5 to 19.5 ⁇ 0.11 8.0-13.0
  • the high-pressure accumulator tube designed as a composite tube consists of a first inner tube part 2, which is inserted into a second outer tube part 1 with little play.
  • the composite pipe is produced by tube rolling (not shown here) in such a way that after the rolling-in process via the elastic springback of the outer pipe part 1, the inner pipe part 2 is subjected to a compressive residual stress adapted to the operating pressure and the inner surface of the inner pipe part 1 has roughness values of R z in the range of ⁇ 1.0 ⁇ m and roughness R a in the range of ⁇ 0.2 ⁇ m.
  • the outer tube part 1 is formed relatively thick-walled and consists of a non-alloyed or low-alloy steel.
  • the inner tube part 1 is formed relatively thin-walled and consists of a plastic deformation in Rohrinwalzen adapted high-alloyed material.
  • the high-pressure storage tube is provided at one end with a sealing plug 5.
  • the composite tube is provided with a corresponding number of continuous radial bores 3, on which coaxial ports 4 are mounted for the pressure lines on the outer tube part.
