  • the numeric values of the full width of upper surface t 1 and the full width maximum t 2 have no difference and always coincide with each other.
  • the full width of upper surface t 1 varies greatly, and for example, a thickness deficiency occurs in a range of the degree of about 50 mm from an end part in the final pass (the 16th pass in Table 1). This is attributed to the fact that the material amount of the portions B 2 corresponding to the arms decreases accompanying the rolling and shaping (forming) to cause the material amount deficiency as described above referring to FIGS. 9, 10 .
  • a variation range is large during the passes up to a start of the thickness reduction of the portions B 1 corresponding to the flanges (the first to fourth passes). This is because the first pass to the fourth pass are at the stage where the raw material B is not subjected to the thickness reduction but subjected to the bending deformation in addition to the shear deformation.
  • the present inventors earnestly carried out studies, and obtained findings that can eliminate the material amount deficiency of the portions B 2 corresponding to the arms by rolling and shaping the raw material B in a dog-bone shape after edging rolling and shaping in the second caliber K 2 (first forming caliber), after using a rectangular cross-sectional raw material (slab) having a width larger than a caliber width of the second caliber K 2 (first forming caliber) and performing rolling and shaping under predetermined conditions in the edging caliber (the first caliber K 1 in this embodiment) being at a preceding stage of the second caliber K 2 (first forming caliber).
  • the findings will be explained referring to the drawings and so on.
  • dog-bone shape in this description means a state where a thickness of both-side end parts in the width direction is deformed into a larger shape relative to a middle part in the width direction as compared with a rectangular cross-section, and means a rectangular cross-sectional raw material, what is called, deformed into a double bulging shape.
  • FIG. 12 are schematic views when the edging rolling is performed on the raw material B having a width larger than that of the second caliber K 2 (first forming caliber) to increase the thickness of end parts in the width direction (upper and lower both end parts in the drawing) in the edging caliber.
  • FIG. 12( a ) illustrates a cross section of a material to be rolled (raw material B) in the dog-bone shape, what is called, deformed into a double bulging shape
  • FIG. 12( b ) is the one obtained by enlarging a part of the cross section.
  • a slab thickness is indicated with T 1
  • a restraining caliber such that a width of a caliber bottom surface (caliber bottom width) T 3 is larger than the slab thickness T 1 (namely, T 1 ⁇ T 3 ) is used as the edging caliber with respect to the raw material B having a width larger than a width of the second caliber K 2 (first forming caliber).
  • T 1 ⁇ T 3 a restraining caliber
  • the maximum thickness T 2 of the raw material B after the edging rolling is set to be a value larger than those of both the slab thickness T 1 and the caliber bottom width T 3 (T 1 ⁇ T 3 ⁇ T 2 ).
  • the above-described range Wa is preferably set as a range corresponding to a part or the whole of a width Wb (illustrated in FIG. 13 ) of the portion B 2 corresponding to the arm of the raw material in the second caliber K 2 (first forming caliber).
  • the relation of Wa ⁇ Wb is preferably satisfied.
  • This is attributed to the fact that, when the rolling and shaping in the second caliber K 2 (first forming caliber) is considered to be divided into the three stages, it is found that the drawing effect occurs from the portions B 2 corresponding to the arms of the raw material toward the portions B 1 corresponding to the flanges and the portion B 3 corresponding to the web at the first stage, in particular, it is found that the material amount of the portions B 2 corresponding to the arms of the raw material decreases to cause the phenomenon such as a material amount deficiency in the sections B 2 at the first stage, as described above referring to FIGS. 9, 10 .
  • T 2 and T 1 preferably have a predetermined relationship. It is desired that the preferable relationship between T 2 and T 1 is preferably decided based on changes in the full width of upper surface t 1 and the full width maximum t 2 of the raw material B described later referring to FIG. 15 .
  • FIG. 13 are schematic explanatory views comparing a cross section in the rolling and shaping in the second caliber K 2 (first forming caliber) when the thickness of the end part in the width direction of the raw material in the edging rolling according to the present invention is increased, and, a cross section in the rolling and shaping in the second caliber K 2 (first forming caliber) when the raw material has a conventional rectangular cross-section as it is, (a) is the cross section in application of the present invention, and (b) is the cross section in application of the conventional rectangular cross-section. Note that FIG.
  • the reduction of the portion B 2 corresponding to the arm is not started at the stage of starting the reduction of the portion B 1 corresponding to the flange.
  • the reduction of the portion B 2 corresponding to the arm is started at almost the same timing as the stage of starting the reduction of the portion B 1 corresponding to the flange, and the full width of upper surface t 1 turns to an increase due to the thickness reduction of the arm in subsequent deformation.
  • FIG. 14 is a schematic view comparing cross-sectional shapes of the materials to be rolled at a time of completion of the rolling and shaping in the second caliber K 2 (first forming caliber), a hatching portion indicates the cross section in the application of the present invention, and a solid line indicated in a section surrounded by a dotted line indicates a portion deficient in the material amount in the conventional cross section, and in particular, the vicinity of the portions B 2 corresponding to the arms of the materials to be rolled is enlarged to be illustrated. As illustrated in FIG.
  • FIG. 15 is a chart obtained by converting changes of full widths of upper surfaces t 1 and full width maximums t 2 of raw materials B into numerals by FEM analysis when the rolling and shaping of the raw materials B in the second caliber K 2 (first forming caliber) is performed in a plurality of passes after performing the edging rolling on slabs each having a width larger than a width of the second caliber K 2 (first forming caliber) to increase the thickness of end parts in the width direction of the raw material. Note that FIG.
  • FIG. 15 describes the schedule in which the rolling and shaping is performed in the total 16 passes (refer to Table 1), and an ideal deformed state in the final pass (the 16th pass) is a deformation such that the full width of upper surface t 1 and the full width maximum t 2 coincide with each other (refer to the hatching portion in FIG. 14 ).
  • a dimension condition of an appropriate slab for realizing the ideal deformed state is a condition that a width of the slab is larger than the width of the second caliber K 2 (first forming caliber) by more than 50 mm and less than 100 mm.
  • the width of the second caliber K 2 (first forming caliber) to be calculated based on product dimensions (particularly a product width) of the final hat-shaped steel sheet pile product, for example, to be defined as a width length obtained by adding a thickness portion of a joint part and a bent portion of the joint part to the product width.
  • the range Wa in which the thickness is increased is preferably smaller than the width Wb of the portion B 2 corresponding to the arm of the raw material in the second caliber K 2 (first forming caliber). It is found that the material amount deficiency in the arm parts of the product can be sufficiently eliminated by satisfying the relation of Wa ⁇ Wb.
  • the configurations of the calibers engraved in the rolling mills there is cited a configuration in which the first caliber K 1 to the third caliber K 3 are engraved in the rough rolling mill 11 , the fourth caliber K 4 and the fifth caliber K 5 are engraved in the intermediate rolling mill 12 , and the sixth caliber K 6 is engraved in the finish rolling mill 14 , but the engraving of the calibers in the respective rolling mills in the present invention can be arbitrarily decided.
