Abstract
Description
本発明は、コイルより繰出された先行鋼帯の後端に新たなコイルより繰出される後行鋼帯の前端を突き合せてフラッシュバット溶接することにより接続する鋼帯の接続方法及び装置に関する。 TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a steel strip connection method and apparatus for connecting by connecting the front end of a succeeding steel strip fed from a new coil to the rear end of a preceding steel strip fed from a coil and performing flash butt welding.
鋼帯の接続が行われる分野の一つに連続酸洗処理ラインがあり、個々の鋼帯を繋いで連続化するためにライン入側からライン内で鋼帯同士を突き合せて溶接、一般にはフラッシュバット溶接を行っている。この際、炭素Cを多く含む特殊鋼、或いはシリコンSi、マンガンMn、バナジウムV等の強化合金元素を多く含む特殊鋼では、C量の少ない軟鋼に比べ溶接が難しい。しかも特殊鋼の鋼帯と張り板を溶接する際には、特殊鋼中のSi、Mn、V等の強化重合元素が酸化し易く、生成した酸化物によって接続部分の強度の低下を招き、ラインでの通板時に破断し易い。接続部分の破断は、ラインの長時間にわたる停止を余儀なくされ、生産性の低下をもたらす。 One of the areas where steel strips are connected is a continuous pickling line, where the steel strips are butted together in the line from the line entry side in order to connect the individual steel strips in a continuous manner. Flash butt welding is performed. At this time, special steel containing a lot of carbon C or special steel containing a lot of strengthening alloy elements such as silicon Si, manganese Mn, vanadium V, etc. are difficult to weld compared to mild steel with a small amount of C. In addition, when welding special steel strips and tension plates, reinforcing polymer elements such as Si, Mn, and V in special steel are easily oxidized, and the generated oxide causes a decrease in the strength of the connection part. It is easy to break when passing through. The breakage of the connecting portion is forced to stop the line for a long time, resulting in a decrease in productivity.
溶接による接続部分の強度を向上させる方法に関しては、下記特許文献1に溶接をガスシールド下で行って鋼帯に含まれる強化重合元素の酸化物の生成を抑制する方法が開示され、また下記特許文献2には、強化重合元素を多く含む特殊鋼の鋼帯同士を接続する際、先行鋼帯の後端部と後行鋼帯の先端部に動粘度5〜100cstの低動粘度油脂を供給し、溶接時に油脂を燃焼させた状態で接続する方法が開示されている。
本発明は、特殊鋼を接続するもので、それには接続部の強度上の問題を解決する必要があるが、前記特許文献1に開示される方法では、ガスシールドのため設備費が嵩み、ランニングコストも高くなる。また前記特許文献2に開示される方法では、設備費は嵩まないが、油脂が低動粘度であるため、シールド効果が期待できない。
The present invention connects special steel, and it is necessary to solve the problem of the strength of the connection part. However, in the method disclosed in Patent Document 1, the equipment cost increases due to gas shielding, Running costs are also high. Further, in the method disclosed in
本発明者らは、先行鋼帯または後続鋼帯の少なくとも一方が、板厚4.5mm以上、Si含有量1.5%以上である鋼帯を接続する方法について種々検討を重ねた結果、Si含有量が少ない鋼やSi含有量は多くても板厚の薄い特殊鋼については、接続部に強度上の問題はないものの、Si含有量が1.5%以上で、かつ板厚が4.5mm以上の特殊鋼に関しては、接続部に満足すべき結果が得られないことを見出した。 The inventors have conducted various studies on a method of connecting steel strips in which at least one of the preceding steel strip or the subsequent steel strip has a thickness of 4.5 mm or more and an Si content of 1.5% or more. For steel with low content and special steel with thin plate thickness even though there is a large amount of Si, there is no problem in strength at the connection part, but the Si content is 1.5% or more and the plate thickness is 4. It has been found that for special steels of 5 mm or more, satisfactory results cannot be obtained at the connection.
本発明者らは、こうした板厚が4.5mm以上で、かつSi含有量が1.5%以上の特殊鋼について更に検討を重ねた結果、溶接後、鋼同士を突き合せて加圧する際のアップセット代(詳細は後述する)を板厚の1.5倍以上にすると、接続部の強度上の問題が解決されることを見出し、本発明を完成するに至った。 As a result of further investigations on special steels having a plate thickness of 4.5 mm or more and an Si content of 1.5% or more, the present inventors have tried to press the steels against each other after welding. It has been found that when the upset cost (details will be described later) is 1.5 times the plate thickness or more, the problem of the strength of the connecting portion is solved, and the present invention has been completed.
すなわち請求項1に係わる発明は、先行鋼帯または後続鋼帯の少なくとも一方が、板厚4.5mm以上、Si含有量1.5%以上である鋼帯を突き合せてフラッシュバット溶接し、溶接後、両鋼帯を突き合せ方向に加圧したときのアップセット代を両鋼帯の平均板厚の1.5〜2.2倍、好ましくは1.5〜2.0倍とし、溶接時に生成したSi、Mn、V等の強化合金元素の酸化物を溶接部分から押出して除去することを特徴とし、
請求項2に係わる発明は、請求項1に係わる発明を実施する装置に関するもので、接続される両鋼帯の端部をそれぞれ上下よりクランプする電極を備えたフラッシュバット溶接機と、各鋼帯を上下よりクランプするロールと、該ロールを正或いは逆方向に回転駆動するモータよりなる送り装置とを有することを特徴とする。
That is, in the invention according to claim 1, at least one of the preceding steel strip or the subsequent steel strip is flush-butt welded with a steel strip having a thickness of 4.5 mm or more and a Si content of 1.5% or more. Then, the upset allowance when both steel strips are pressed in the butting direction is 1.5 to 2.2 times the average plate thickness of both steel strips, preferably 1.5 to 2.0 times, It is characterized by extruding and removing the oxides of strengthened alloy elements such as Si, Mn, and V formed from the welded part,
The invention according to
図1は、本装置の概略図を示すもので、先行鋼帯1の後端近くを上下よりクランプする上電極2及び下電極3と、後行鋼帯4の前端近くを上下よりクランプする上電極2及び下電極3よりなるフラッシュバット溶接機と、鋼帯1及び4を上下よりクランプするロール5、5と、各ロール5、5を正或いは逆方向に回転駆動するモータ(図示しない)よりなる送り装置とからなっており、送り装置により両鋼帯1及び4を図2に示すように突き合せて接合したのち、フラッシュバット溶接機にて突き合せ溶接し、溶接後、送り装置で両鋼帯を突き合せ方向に強く加圧する(図3)。この加圧はアップセット代が両鋼帯の平均板厚の1.5〜2.2倍となるまで行われる。本発明のアップセット代は、図2に示す電極間の距離Dと加圧後の電極間の距離dの差D−dで表わすことができる。
FIG. 1 shows a schematic view of the present apparatus. The
請求項1に係わる発明によると、アップセット代を前後の平均板厚の1.5倍以上、2.2倍以下に設定してフラッシュバット溶接するだけで、軟鋼に比べ溶接が難しい特殊鋼のなかでも特に酸化され易いSi、Mn等を多く含む特殊鋼であっても破断限界値を超えた接合強度の接合鋼帯を容易に得ることができ、そのため接合部の破断によるラインの休止を未然に防ぐことができ、生産性を向上させることができる。 According to the first aspect of the invention, it is possible to use special steel that is difficult to weld compared to mild steel by simply setting the upset cost to 1.5 times or more and 2.2 times or less of the average thickness of the front and back and performing flash butt welding. In particular, it is possible to easily obtain a bonded steel strip having a bonding strength exceeding the fracture limit value even for special steels that contain a large amount of Si, Mn, etc., which are particularly susceptible to oxidation. Can be prevented and productivity can be improved.
請求項2に係わる発明においては、鋼帯の送り装置に既存の搬送装置を用いれば、フラッシュバット溶接機以外に鋼帯を接続するための特別な設備を必要とせず、設備費が嵩むこともない。
In the invention according to
以下の表1に示す2種類の板厚の高Si特殊鋼G及びHについで、同鋼種の鋼帯(板厚4.5mm)同士を図1および図2に示す方法でフラッシュバット溶接により突き合せて溶接し、溶接後アップセット代を1.5〜2.2の範囲内で変えて突き合せ方向に加圧した。その後、図3に示す鋼帯1、4の溶接接合部6を中心としてその前後の鋼帯の長さ方向に200mm幅の溶接近傍部を切取り、更に溶接近傍部6に沿って両エッジから50mm位置、幅方向1/4位置、幅方向中心位置で50mm×200mmに切取った試験片、計5枚を作成した。そして各試験片について、引張り試験を行い、溶接接合部が破断に至る引張り応力を測定した。表2の接合部引張り強度は5枚の試験片の平均値を示すものである。
Following the two types of high-thickness special steels G and H shown in Table 1 below, the steel strips (thickness 4.5 mm) of the same steel type are pressed by flash butt welding using the method shown in FIGS. Welded together and changed the upset cost after welding within the range of 1.5 to 2.2 and pressurized in the butt direction. Thereafter, a welding vicinity portion having a width of 200 mm is cut in the longitudinal direction of the steel strip before and after the welded joint portion 6 of the
比較例
表1に示す2種類の板厚の低Si特殊鋼A〜Dと、3種類の板厚の高Si特殊鋼E〜Hについて、実施例と同様にして突き合せ溶接し、溶接後、セットアップ代を1又は1.2にして突き合せ方向に加圧した。そして実施例と同じ方法で計5枚の試験片を作成し、それぞれ引張り試験を行って破断に至る引張り応力を測定した。5枚の試験片の平均値を表2に示す。
Comparative Example Two types of low Si special steels A to D shown in Table 1 and three types of high Si special steels E to H were butt welded in the same manner as in the examples, and after welding, The set-up allowance was set to 1 or 1.2 and pressure was applied in the butt direction. Then, a total of five test pieces were prepared by the same method as in the examples, and tensile tests were performed to measure the tensile stress leading to breakage. Table 2 shows the average value of the five test pieces.
これまでの調査や経験から通板中や圧延時に溶接接合部が破断しないようにするためには、接合部の引張り強さは300N/mm2以上必要であることが判明している。この観点から表2を見ると、試料No.9〜12の低Si量の供試材では、アップセット代が板厚と同一でも引張り強さは366〜381N/mm2で、破断限界値の300N/mm2を十分に満足し、また試料No.13の高Si鋼であっても板厚が2.3mmの薄板鋼では引張り強さが324N/mm2で破断限界値を満足しているが、試料No.14〜16の高Si鋼で、板厚が4.5〜6mmの厚板鋼では、引張り強さが242〜297N/mm2で破断限界値を満足せず、また試料No.17及び18の試料No.15及び16と同じ厚板鋼について、アップセット代を板厚の1.2倍に上げても引張り強さは280〜302N/mm2となったものの十分に満足すべき結果が得られなかった。以上のことから接合部の強度はSi量と板厚に大きく依存し、Si量が1.5%以下の特殊鋼、Si量が1.5%以上でも板厚が4.5mm未満の薄板では接合部強度に問題を生じないこと、板厚4.5mm以上、Si量1.5%以上の高Si鋼では、アップセット代を板厚の1.2倍に上げても満足できる接合強度が得られないことが判明した。 From past investigations and experiences, it has been found that the tensile strength of the joint is required to be 300 N / mm 2 or more so that the welded joint does not break during threading or rolling. Looking at Table 2 from this point of view, sample no. The low Si content of the test material of 9-12, upset allowance is also tensile strength identical to the plate thickness in 366~381N / mm 2, sufficient to satisfy the 300N / mm 2 of fracture limit value, also the sample No. Even though the high-Si steel of 13 is a thin steel plate having a thickness of 2.3 mm, the tensile strength is 324 N / mm 2 and the fracture limit value is satisfied. A high steel plate of 14 to 16 and a steel plate thickness of 4.5 to 6 mm does not satisfy the fracture limit with a tensile strength of 242 to 297 N / mm 2 . Sample Nos. 17 and 18 For the same thick steel plate as 15 and 16, even if the upset cost was increased to 1.2 times the plate thickness, the tensile strength was 280-302 N / mm 2 , but sufficient satisfactory results were not obtained. . From the above, the strength of the joint depends greatly on the Si amount and the plate thickness. For special steel with a Si amount of 1.5% or less, and for a thin plate with a thickness of less than 4.5mm even if the Si amount is 1.5% or more There is no problem in the joint strength, and with high Si steel with a plate thickness of 4.5mm or more and Si content of 1.5% or more, the joint strength can be satisfied even if the upset cost is increased to 1.2 times the plate thickness. It turned out not to be obtained.
試料No.1〜8の実施例に関しては、板厚4.5mm以上、Si量1.5%以上の高Si鋼であってもアップセット量を板厚の1.5〜2.2倍にすると、満足できる接合部強度が得られ、ことにアップセット代を板厚の1.5〜2.0倍にすると、十分に満足できる接合部強度が得られることが判明した。 Sample No. As for Examples 1 to 8, even when high Si steel having a plate thickness of 4.5 mm or more and a Si amount of 1.5% or more is satisfied when the upset amount is 1.5 to 2.2 times the plate thickness. It was found that a sufficiently strong joint strength was obtained, and in particular, when the upset allowance was 1.5 to 2.0 times the plate thickness, a sufficiently satisfactory joint strength could be obtained.
