Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent intrusion of the water of an oil cooler into a quenching oil in a circulating piping, when a hole, etc., occur in a circulating piping in an oil cooler. CONSTITUTION:A circulating piping 2, in which a quenching oil passes through an oil cooler 7 supplied with a cooling water and is circulated by a cooler pump 6, is connected to a quenching oil bath 1. In the circulating piping 2, a flow-in valve 10 and flow-out valve 3 consisting of a solenoid valve are arranged at its flow-in part 2a and flow-out part 2b, respectively, and a pressurizing mechanism 20 as a hydraulic/pneumatic pressure type accumulator is connected thereto. When a hydraulic surface of the quenching oil bath is depressurized, operation of the cooler pump 6 is stopped, closing the flow-in valve 10 and flow-out valve 3, the pressurizing mechanism is activated. By this means, the quenching oil in the circulating piping 2 is pressurized to maintain pressure higher than that of a cooling water, for instance, when a hole, etc., is produced in the circulating piping in the oil cooler 7, thus it will not occur that the water intrudes into the circulating piping 2 to intrude in the quenching oil.

2. Description of the Related Art Steel parts are heated to an A 1 point (727 ° C.) or higher to be in an austenite state, and then rapidly cooled to be in a martensite state and the hardness thereof is remarkably increased. The process of quenching the austenitized steel material to make it into martensite and increasing the hardness of the steel material is called quenching treatment. In this quenching process,
The quench hardening behavior of a steel material is the hardenability (hardenability) of that steel material,
It is governed by the size (mass) of the steel material and the cooling rate (cooling capacity of the coolant). As the coolant,
Conventionally, water and oil having a higher boiling point and a lower cooling capacity than water have been used.

Here, when the austenitized steel material is immersed in an oil tank for rapid cooling, it is necessary to adjust the quenching oil in the oil tank to a predetermined temperature to adjust the cooling ability of the quenching oil. Therefore, an oil cooler to which cooling water is supplied, a quench oil circulation line connected to the quench oil tank and passing through the oil cooler, and a quench oil tank via this circulation line are provided in the quench oil tank. A cooling device having a pump for feeding quenching oil into the oil cooler and returning the cooled quenching oil into the quenching oil tank is generally provided. In this quenching oil cooling device, the pump is operated according to the oil temperature in the quenching oil tank, and the quenching oil in the quenching oil tank is passed through the oil cooler to which the cooling water is supplied to cool it. By returning the quenching oil into the quenching oil tank, the quenching oil in the quenching oil tank is adjusted to a predetermined temperature.

By the way, in recent years, the oil quenching treatment as described above is performed under reduced pressure. This is because by reducing the oil surface pressure,
The evaporation property of the quenching oil is changed to reduce quenching strain and improve quenching hardness. That is, the quenching oil cooling process is divided into three stages, that is, a vapor film stage, a boiling stage, and a convection stage. And if the oil surface pressure drops,
As the vapor pressure of the quenching oil increases, the amount of vapor film generated increases, and the vapor film stage in which the periphery of the treated material is covered with the vapor film and the cooling rate becomes slow becomes longer. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of thermal stress due to rapid cooling, and it is possible to suppress quenching strain due to thermal stress. Further, when the oil surface pressure is lowered, the boiling point of the quenching oil is lowered, so that the boiling stage in which the cooling rate is very fast is carried over to the low temperature side, and the hardening can be completed more completely. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of quenching strain and improve quench hardening by oil quenching under reduced pressure.

However, when quenching under reduced pressure,
In the quenching oil cooling device described above, in order to prevent cavitation, the cooler pump must be stopped when the hydraulic surface is under reduced pressure. Note that cavitation means that when the pressure of a flowing liquid locally decreases to reach saturated vapor pressure or air separation pressure, vapor is generated or dissolved air is separated, and bubbles are generated. When a bubble collapses, it produces a super high pressure locally and causes noise.

As described above, in the quenching oil cooling apparatus of this embodiment, the pressure of the quenching oil in the circulation line 2 passing through the oil cooler 7 is always maintained higher than the pressure of the cooling water,
Even if a defect such as a hole occurs in the circulation pipe line 2 in the oil cooler 7, water does not enter the circulation pipe line 2 and mix into the quenching oil. It is possible to suppress deterioration of the quenching performance. Therefore, it contributes to extending the life of the quenching oil in the quenching oil tank.

In the above embodiment, the outflow valve 3 provided in the outflow portion 2b of the circulation line 2 may be a check valve instead of the solenoid valve. Further, as the pressurizing mechanism of the present invention, a so-called hydraulic-pneumatic accumulator is adopted in the above-mentioned embodiment, but the present invention is not limited to this, and other pressurizing means such as thin-walled stainless steel or vinyl can be expanded and contracted. It is also possible to employ means for disposing the bellows pipe at an arbitrary position in the circulation conduit 2. With this, when depressurizing the hydraulic surface,
The bellows pipe is reduced, and the quenching oil in the circulation pipe can be pressurized by the reduced volume.
