(Industrial Application Field) The present invention relates to a method for heating a metal wire, which is used to heat the metal wire in a straight state. (Prior Art) When a metal wire is subjected to heat treatment such as annealing, compacting treatment, quenching, and tempering, it is necessary to heat the metal wire. In this case, combustion furnace heating, electric furnace heating, current heating, high frequency induction heating, etc. have been used individually as means for heating the metal wire in a straight state. For example, when performing electrical heating, as shown in FIG.
The metal wire 11 is sandwiched between the wire rods 12b and heated by an electric heating device 12 which supplies a power source 12c while applying tension, and after being raised to a quenching temperature, it is cooled and hardened in a cooling device 13. It is sandwiched between energizing and pichi rolls 14a and 14b and is heated by energizing and heating device 14 which supplies power source 1.4c while applying tension, and after raising it to the tempering temperature, it is cooled in cooling device 15 and tempered. That's what I was doing. In addition, when performing high-frequency induction heating, as shown in FIG. 3, the metal wire 21 is held between pinch rolls 22a and 22b, heated to the quenching temperature by the high-frequency induction heating device 23 while applying tension, and then cooled. Hardening is performed by cooling in the device 24, and then the hardened metal wire 21 is sandwiched between pinch rolls 25a and 25b and heated to a tempering temperature by the high frequency induction heating device 26 while applying tension, and then the cooling device 27
Tempering was performed by cooling the material. (Problems to be Solved by the Invention) As described above, as conventional heating means for metal wires, combustion furnace heating, electric furnace heating, current heating, high-frequency induction heating, etc. have been used individually. When heating is attempted, a temperature gradient may occur between the surface layer and the center of the metal wire, and when heating without a temperature gradient is attempted, the length of the heating means must be increased. However, there are problems in that the feeding speed of the metal wire may need to be slowed down, and it has been an issue to solve these problems. The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned conventional problems, and it is possible to feed the metal wire at a higher speed and at a higher temperature without increasing the length of the heating means or slowing down the feeding speed of the metal wire. The object of the present invention is to provide a method for heating a metal wire that can be heated accurately and stably.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The metal wire heating method according to the present invention uses electric furnace heating in combination with one or both of electrical heating and high-frequency induction heating when heating the metal wire in a straight state. The invention is characterized by having a structure in which heating is performed by heating the metal wire, and the structure of the invention related to such a method for heating a metal wire is used as a means for solving the above-mentioned conventional problems. FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of the method for heating a metal wire according to the present invention, in which a metal wire 1 that has been unwound from a coil body of a metal wire (not shown) and passed through a straightening roller (also not shown) is energized and Pinch rolls 2a, 2b and power supply 2
The metal wire 1 passes through one of the current-carrying and pinch rolls 2a of the current-carrying heating device 2 which is equipped with C and performs current-carrying heating, and then enters the high-frequency induction heating device 3 which performs high-frequency induction heating, where the metal wire 1 is heated by high-frequency induction. is an electric furnace 4 that performs electric furnace heating.
After entering the electric furnace and being heated, the metal wire 1 passes through the other energizing/pinch roll 2b of the energizing heating device 2 and is heated to a predetermined quenching temperature. The metal wire 1 heated to a predetermined quenching temperature is passed through a cooling device 5
After being cooled and hardened, the metal wire 1 enters a high-frequency induction heating device 6 that performs high-frequency induction heating, and the metal wire 1 that has been high-frequency induction heated is heated in an electric furnace. It enters the electric furnace 7 and is heated to a predetermined baking temperature. The metal wire 1 heated to a predetermined tempering temperature is cooled by a cooling device 8 and tempered. In addition, in the heating method of the metal wire 1 shown in FIG.
When heating the metal wire 1 to the quenching temperature, both the current heating device 2 and the high frequency induction heating device 3 are used together with the electric furnace 4, but the current heating device 2 and the high frequency induction heating device 3 and the electric furnace 4 may be used together for heating. -4-' Also, in the method of heating the metal wire 1 shown in FIG.
In heating the metal wire 1 to the tempering temperature,
Although the high frequency induction heating device 6 and the electric furnace 7 are used together for heating, it is also possible to use the electric heating device and the electric furnace 7 together for heating. Both electrical heating and electric furnace heating may be used together. (Function of the Invention) In the method for heating a metal wire according to the present invention, when heating the metal wire in a straight state, although rapid heating is possible, the temperature cannot be maintained, and the surface layer and the inside of the metal wire are heated. The method uses a combination of electrical heating and high-frequency induction heating, which tend to cause temperature differences, and electric furnace heating, which easily maintains the temperature, so metal wires can be heated quickly. Heating can now be measured, and the heating temperature accuracy has been significantly improved. (Example) A tool steel wire made of 5KD61 was used as the metal wire, and the metal wire 1, which had been unwound from a coil body of the metal wire not shown in FIG. 2a. 2b and a power source 2c, and passes through one of the current-carrying and pinch rolls 2a of the current-carrying/pinch roll 2a, which is equipped with a power supply 2b and a power source 2c, and then passes through the high-frequency induction heating device 3, which performs high-frequency induction heating, and is heated by high-frequency induction. The metal wire 1 is then put into an electric furnace 4 that performs electric furnace heating, and the metal wire 1 heated in the electric furnace is passed through the other energizing/pinch roll 2b of the energizing heating device 2 to reach the quenching temperature. It was heated to 1120°C. Subsequently, the metal wire 1 heated to a quenching temperature of 1120° C. is cooled and hardened by the cooling device 5, and then the high frequency induction heating device 6 that performs high frequency induction heating is energized to produce the metal wire after being high frequency induction heated. 1 is passed through an electric furnace 7 that performs electric furnace heating to a tempering temperature of 600°C.
heated to. Subsequently, metal wire 1 heated to a tempering temperature of 600°C
was cooled by a cooling device 8 to perform tempering. In the metal wire 1 that has been heat-treated in this way, since the temperature is well maintained by the electric furnace 4 during quenching heating, the melt penetration of carbides is good, and also during tempering heating. Since the temperature is well maintained by the electric furnace 7, the variation in hardness is small, and the hardness of the metal wire 1 after heat treatment is HRC5.
The hardness was within 0±2, indicating high hardness and small variation in hardness. On the other hand, for comparison, when quenching and tempering was performed by heating with the current heating device 2 and the high frequency induction heating devices 3 and 6 without using the electric furnace 4.7, the hardness of the metal wire after heat treatment was H, C43 ± 4, and the hardness was low because the carbide was not sufficiently penetrated, and the hardness varied widely because the temperature was not maintained sufficiently during tempering. [Effects of the Invention] According to the method for heating a metal wire according to the present invention, when heating a metal wire in a straight state, one or both of electrical heating and high-frequency induction heating and electric furnace heating are used in combination. The metal wire can be heated stably at a faster feed rate and with high temperature accuracy by rapid heating using electrical heating and high-frequency induction heating, and temperature maintenance using electric furnace heating. This has the remarkable effect of making it possible to improve the quality of the metal wire and the heating efficiency.
