Definitions
- Sawblades for metal are commonly made with teeth from high-speed steel, or sometimes wholly from high-speed steel, which refers to steel alloys containing tungsten and chromium.
- high-speed steel which refers to steel alloys containing tungsten and chromium.
- the saw blades must be hardened at a very high temperature, normally by heating to a temperature around 1200 degrees C during a few minutes, followed by rapid cooling with gas or liquid, and thereafter annealing during up to 60 minutes at around 550 degrees C.
- the hardening temperature of 1200 degrees C is so high, that any other steel alloy would be deformed even during such a short heating period, and traditionally sawblades for metal have been hardened while suspended vertically from a chain conveyor, and then being heated by radiation or salt bath, followed by cooling by cold gas or oil immersion.
- Important disadvantages of handling suspended saw blades is the time needed for mounting and dismounting, and the relatively great distance between the hanging blades which gives the hardening oven a low production capacity unless it is made very spacious.
- Hardening ovens are also known where the sawblades are tightly packed in fixtures as in the patent US 6,147,328, but that makes it difficult to get a sufficiently fast and even cooling.
- Figure 1 shows a hardening fixture with sawblades standing therein
- Figure 2 shows a part of an opened hardening fixture with sawblades.
- a hardening fixture according to the invention is made such that it can simultaneously confine and support a large number of sawblades 10, preferably up to 300 pieces depending on their thickness. They are standing vertically supported on their lower ends 12 and have upper ends 11 that are free but oriented by the hardening fixture. The flat lateral surfaces of the sawblades are close to each other without any compressive force.
- the number of saw blades in the hardening fixture may vary depending on the thickness of the sawblades. Since the saw- blades are standing vertically, the same fixture can be used for sawblades with different lengths within some limits, and for sawblades with different shapes of their ends, also without holes.
- the hardening fixture comprises a bottom plate 13 rigidly connected to two vertical pillars 14 an two separate side plates 15.
- Each vertical pillar can be made with a uniform U-shaped section, or assembled from flat components.
- Each side plate is provided with an upper guiding strip 16, a lower guiding strip 17 and at least two vertical strips 18, and has lateral openings between the strips.
- the vertical strips are provided with distance elements 19.
- the bottom plate can be provided with guiding elements 20.
- the second side plate is then placed on the first side plate, and both side plates with the sawblades between them are inserted between the vertical pillars 14 until the lower ends 12 of the sawblades touch the bottom plate 13.
- the side plates can at first be inserted between the vertical pillars, and bundles of sawblades can later be inserted between the distance elements, and if this method is used, the side plates can be connected to each other by the distance elements. If the side plates 15 have more than two vertical strips 18 there are spaces for more than one bundle of sawblades, but all spaces need not be filled.
- the hardening fixture and the sawblades are thereafter carried to a cooling zone where gas of a predetermined temperature is blown against the edges of the sawblades through a multitude of nozzles located very close to the lateral openings. Since the sawblades are not pressed together, and by gradual motion of the hardening fixture relative to the nozzles, the saw- blades will vibrate relative to each other and allow the gas to penetrate between them to cause an even cooling.
- the hardening fixture may be made to allow placing of the wider sawblades in another angle than perpendicular to the side plates 15, which may also be simplified if the sides of the distance elements 19 facing the sawblades each one is formed with that angle.
- the hardening fixture is made from graphite, preferably reinforced with carbon fibres. Direct contact of graphite or carbon fibres with steel at those high temperatures would cause carbon diffusion into the steel and a corresponding increase of brittleness, which is not allowed.
- the surfaces of the hardening fixture, especially the side plates 15, the distance elements 19 and the bottom plate 13, which might get in contact with the steel of the sawblades must therefore be covered with a thin layer of a wear resistant material 21 not containing carbon or other substances which might diffuse into the steel to deteriorate its properties, but still stable at high tempera- tures. Examples of such materials are ceramics as boron nitride, silicon nitride, silicon dioxide, zirconium oxide are aluminium oxide. Certain high temperature resistant metals such as molybdenum or chromium alloys may be used.
- the design of the hardening fixture may to some extent be varied and adapted to special shapes of the sawblades or the conveyor used for carrying the hardening fixture through the hardening plant.
- the number of vertical strips may be varied, and if desired the bottom plate may be made to accommodate several parallel pairs of side plates.
- the vertical pillars 14 might also be integrated with the side plates 15 or the distance elements 19.
