Description

  The present invention relates to a wear-resistant steel plate used in the present invention, construction machinery, industrial machinery and the like, and a method for producing the same.

  In construction machinery and industrial machinery such as dump vessels, power shovels, bulldozers, buckets, hoppers, etc., members with wear problems due to contact with earth and sand have a wear resistance characteristic in order to extend their life. Excellent steel plate is used.

  It is generally known that the wear resistance of steel sheets is improved by increasing the hardness, and the quenching characteristics are improved by adding alloy elements such as Cr and Mo, and heat treatment such as quenching is performed. A hardened wear-resistant steel sheet is disclosed (for example, see Patent Documents 1 to 3).

  Furthermore, in order to further extend the life of construction machinery and industrial machinery, construction machinery and industrial machinery manufacturers weld multiple wear-resistant steel plates with different thicknesses into a single steel plate. In some cases, the thick part is applied to a member that easily wears, and the thin part is applied to a member that does not progress relatively.

  However, as described above, when welding a plurality of wear-resistant steel plates having different thicknesses in order to further extend the life of construction machinery and industrial machinery, the hardness in the vicinity of the welded portion is increased by welding heat. There is a problem that the wear resistance is lowered and the wear resistance is lowered, and the wear progresses locally, thereby hindering the long life.

  In addition, when a wear-resistant steel sheet having a different thickness is produced by welding, there is a problem that the production efficiency is lowered because the number of welding processes increases.

  The present invention has been made in view of the circumstances as described above, and as a wear-resistant steel plate used in construction machinery and industrial machinery, it is possible to stably further extend the life of construction machinery and industrial machinery. It is an object of the present invention to provide a wear-resistant steel plate that can be obtained in an economical manner and a method for producing the same.

The method for producing a wear-resistant steel sheet according to [4] or [5], wherein

  In the present invention, since it is a wear-resistant steel plate whose thickness has changed in the longitudinal direction as an integrated body, the welded portion is welded by welding heat as in the case of welding a plurality of wear-resistant steel plates having different thicknesses. In the vicinity, there is no problem that the hardness is reduced, the wear resistance is lowered, and the wear proceeds locally.

[Ingredient composition]
The component composition of the wear resistant steel 10 in one embodiment of the present invention will be described. In addition, all the following% displays are the mass%.

C: 0.10 to 0.35%
C is an element effective in increasing the hardness of the metal base material and improving the wear resistance in the metal structure. In order to obtain the effect, C is required to be contained in an amount of 0.10% or more. . On the other hand, if the content exceeds 0.35%, hard carbides coarsely precipitate, and cracks are generated starting from the carbides during bending. For this reason, C content was prescribed | regulated to the range of 0.10%-0.35%.

Si: 0.05-1.0%
Si is an effective element as a deoxidizing element, and in order to obtain such an effect, the content of 0.05% or more is required. Moreover, Si is an element that contributes to increasing the hardness by solid solution strengthening by dissolving in steel, but when contained in excess of 1.0%, the ductility and toughness are reduced, and the amount of inclusions is further reduced. This causes problems such as an increase. For this reason, Si content is limited to 0.05 to 1.0% of range.

Mn: 0.1 to 2.0%
Mn is an effective element that contributes to high hardness by solid solution strengthening, and in order to obtain such an effect, it needs to be contained in an amount of 0.1% or more. On the other hand, the content exceeding 2.0% reduces weldability. For this reason, Mn content is limited to 0.1 to 2.0% of range.

P: 0.030% or less P is an impurity element, and is easily segregated at grain boundaries, lowers the bonding strength with adjacent crystal grains, and degrades low-temperature toughness and hydrogen embrittlement resistance. For this reason, it is desirable that P be 0.030% or less.

S: 0.030% or less S is an impurity element and is easily segregated at the crystal grain boundary. Moreover, by producing MnS, which is a non-metallic inclusion, the bonding strength with adjacent crystal grains decreases, the amount of inclusion increases, and the low-temperature toughness and hydrogen embrittlement resistance deteriorate. Therefore, it is desirable that the S content be 0.030% or less.

Al: 0.1% or less Al acts as a deoxidizer. Such an effect is recognized at a content of 0.0020% or more, but a large content exceeding 0.1% reduces the cleanliness of the steel. For this reason, Al content is limited to 0.1% or less.

  In addition to the above, it further contains one or more of the following.

Cr: 0.1 to 2.0%
Cr has the effect of improving hardenability. In order to acquire such an effect, 0.1% or more of content is required, but the content exceeding 2.0% reduces weldability. For this reason, when adding Cr, it is preferable to limit to 0.1 to 2.0% of range.

Mo: 0.01 to 1.0%
Mo is an element that improves hardenability. In order to acquire such an effect, 0.01% or more of content is required. On the other hand, if it exceeds 1.0%, weldability is lowered. Therefore, the Mo content is preferably limited to a range of 0.01 to 1.0%.

Ti: 0.1 to 0.8%
Ti is an element that forms Ti-based carbides that contribute to improved wear resistance. In order to obtain such an effect, the content of 0.1% or more is required. On the other hand, if the Ti content exceeds 0.8%, the Ti-based carbides become coarse, and cracks occur starting from the coarse Ti-based carbides during bending. For this reason, it is preferable to limit Ti content to 0.1 to 0.8% of range.

Nb: 0.005 to 1.0%
When Nb is added in combination with Ti, Nb forms a composite carbide of Ti and Nb ((NbTi) C). The TiNb composite carbide is dispersed in the base material and contributes effectively to improving the wear resistance. In order to obtain such an effect of improving wear resistance, a content of 0.005% or more is required. On the other hand, if the content exceeds 1.0%, the hard TiNb composite carbide is coarsened, and cracks occur starting from the coarse TiNb composite carbide during bending. For this reason, when adding, it is preferable to limit Nb content to 0.005 to 1.0% of range.

B: 0.0003 to 0.0030%
B is an element that segregates at the grain boundary, strengthens the grain boundary, and contributes effectively to improvement of toughness. In order to obtain such an effect, the content of 0.0003% or more is necessary. On the other hand, the content exceeding 0.0030% lowers the weldability. For this reason, when adding B, it is preferable to limit to 0.0003 to 0.0030% of range.

[Material properties]
The wear-resistant steel 10 in one embodiment of the present invention has a Brinell hardness (HBW10 / 3000) of 361 or more on the surface of the steel plate.

  This is because, in construction machines and industrial machines such as dump vessels, power shovels, bulldozers, buckets, hoppers, etc., members that have problems with wear due to contact with earth and sand are the Brinell hardness (HBW10 / 3000) of the steel plate surface. This is because it is desired that) is 361 or more. In order to realize a long life, the Brinell hardness (HBW10 / 3000) on the steel sheet surface is preferably 400 or more.

By doing in this way, the steel plate whose Brinell hardness (HBW10 / 3000) of the steel plate surface becomes 361 or more is obtained. Although the upper limit of a cooling rate is not specifically limited, For example, it is preferable that it is less than 100 degrees C / s.

In addition, about said temperature, it is set as the surface temperature of a steel piece and this to-be-rolled material. And, for the Ac ₃ of the rolled material, it may be obtained by known calculation formula may be determined using known testing device.

  FIG. 2 shows a material 20 to be rolled (thick part 21, taper part 22, thin part) whose thickness has been changed in the longitudinal direction by hot rolling with a reversible hot rolling mill (upper roll 30a, lower roll 30b). 23) is obtained.

  In FIG. 2, with the progress of the material 20 to be rolled, by changing the roll gap between the upper rolling roll 30a and the lower rolling roll 30b during rolling, the thick portion 21 having a relatively thick plate thickness, A taper portion 22 whose thickness is tapered from the portion 21 toward the thin portion 23 and a relatively thin plate 23 are formed.

  Here, the thick part 21 of the material 20 to be rolled corresponds to the thick part 11 of the wear-resistant steel sheet 10, the taper part 22 of the material 20 to be rolled corresponds to the taper part 12 of the steel sheet 10 to be rolled, and the material to be rolled. The thin part 23 of 20 corresponds to the thin part 13 of the wear-resistant steel plate 10.

  Next, FIG. 3 cools the material 20 that has been hot-rolled as described above through a cooling device (upper cooling header 31, upper cooling nozzle 32, lower cooling header 33, lower cooling nozzle 34). It shows the state.

  In FIG. 3, the passing position of the material to be rolled 10 is tracked by a sensor (not shown) or the like, and the thickness change in the longitudinal direction of the material to be rolled 10 passing through the cooling device (thick part 21, taper part 22). The thin part 23) is detected, and the material to be rolled 10 is cooled while being restrained from above and below with the restraining rolls (upper restraining roll 35, lower restraining roll 36) whose height position changes corresponding to the change in the plate thickness. ing.

  Here, FIG. 3A is a state in which the thin portion 23 of the material to be rolled 10 is cooled, and FIG. 3B is a state in which the taper portion 22 of the material to be rolled 10 is cooled. FIG. 3C shows a state where the thick part 21 of the material to be rolled 10 is cooled.

  As a result, when the material to be rolled 10 (thickness portion 21, taper portion 22, thin portion 23) having a change in the plate thickness in the longitudinal direction is cooled and quenched, the occurrence of thermal strain in the material to be rolled 10 is accurately detected. Can be suppressed.

As shown in FIG. 3, the hot-rolled material 20 is cooled from a temperature of Ac ₃ or higher to a temperature of 18 ° C./s or higher to a Mf point or lower (upper cooling header 31, upper cooling nozzle). 32, the lower cooling header 33, and the lower cooling nozzle 34) are cooled by passing a cooling device online, and the hot-rolled material 20 is directly passed through the online cooling device. Just cool. Alternatively, a heating device and a cooling device may be installed offline, and the hot-rolled material 20 may be reheated by the offline heating device and then cooled by passing through the offline cooling device.

  Thus, in this embodiment, since it becomes the wear-resistant steel plate 10 in which the plate thickness is changed in the longitudinal direction as an integrated body by hot rolling, when wear-resistant steel plates having different plate thicknesses are welded As described above, there is no problem in that the hardness decreases in the vicinity of the weld due to the welding heat, the wear resistance is lowered, and the wear proceeds locally. As a result, as a wear-resistant steel plate used in construction machinery, industrial machinery, etc., it is possible to stably obtain a longer life of construction machinery, industrial machinery, etc. And since the weight reduction can be achieved by applying a portion where the plate thickness is thin to the member where the wear does not progress relatively, the fuel consumption can be improved by reducing the weight of the construction machine, the industrial machine and the like.

  Moreover, since there is no welding process, production efficiency is also improved.
