Definitions

  • the present invention generally relates to the field of steel parts and a method of making the same. More particularly, the present invention relates to a steei part with regions of different ductility and/or hardness as well as a method and an oven for making the same.
  • the present invention pertains to a method of heating at least two blanks for making a metal workpiece having regions of greater and lesser hardness, the invention having the features of the preamble of claim 1.
  • the invention also pertains to a furnace for heating at least two blanks or blank batches having the features of the preamble of claim 11.
  • shaped components should have a high strength over certain regions and other regions with a high ductility.
  • the column foot would advantageously be relatively ductile, while high strength properties would be advantageously established on the upper part of the column.
  • DE 197 43 802 C2 describes a process for producing a shaped article for motor vehicle components with regions of different ductility and with a starting billet, before or after pressing is only partially heated or starting from a prior homogeneous heating is subsequently heated in a targeted manner in the regions at which higher ductility is desired.
  • the subsequent heating for producing ductile regions has however the drawback that the shaped body can distort.
  • DE 197 23 655 Al describes a process for the partial hardening of a shaped body whereby a starting billet is homogeneously heated in a furnace and then hardened in a cooled pair of tools, whereby partial regions of the workpiece have hardening inhibited by slower cooling in that at these regions in the tool, recesses or thermally insulating inserts are disposed or in these regions in the tool the induction heating is applied.
  • the purpose of this process is to provide non- hardened regions in the shaped body at which, additional machining, for example, drilling can be carried out.
  • the method of DE 197 23 655 Al is problematical in the context of a hot-forming process since at the locations of the recesses in the tool, shaping cannot occur and with larger ductile regions, thermally insulating inserts are provided in the tool which limit the hardening and interfere with the shaping process so that breakage is possible.
  • the inductive hardening is possible only with finish-shaped parts and requires certain intrinsic operating steps. As a consequence the subsequent inductive hardening is expensive and has the danger of resulting in distortion.
  • European Patent EP 0 816 520 Bl describes a shaped article and a method for providing desired strength and hardening patterns over its length, whereby the shaped body, after its shaping, is inductively heated and then quenched to produce the hardened regions.
  • B-column which also has regions of different strengths.
  • the formation of the B-column is effected in a hot-forming process whereby starting from a blank or a preformed longitudinal profile, the workpiece is austenitized in a furnace and then shaped and hardened in a cooled tool.
  • the furnace large-area regions of the workpiece are insulated against the effect of the temperature whereby in these regions the austenitization temperature is not reached and as a consequence during the hardening no martensitic structure arises in the hardening and shaping tool.
  • DE 200 14 361 Ul proposes to initially completely austenitize a pre-formed blank or longitudinal section and, during the transport to the hardening tool, to limit the cooling rate in a targeted manner in a region so that it is not excessively rapid, for example by blowing to bring it to a temperature clearly below the austenitization temperature.
  • the hardening tool there may thus no purely martensitic structure formation but rather the formation of a mixed structure with clear ferrite/bainite components which has ductile properties.
  • a motion of a transport device for transporting the workpiece through the furnace is interrupted for a predetermined amount of time so that the portion of the workpiece that projects from the oven outlet is allowed to slowly cool by the contact to ambient air while the workpiece portion that remains within the furnace is kept at or further heated to the austenitization temperature of the hardenable workpiece material.
  • the transport mechanism's motion can be interrupted either by decoupling the workpiece from a roll mechanism of the transport device by means of push rods lifting the workpiece from the roll, or by providing a separate transport mechanism extending throughout the furnace for each workpiece, which transport mechanism can be controlled to stop separately and transports the workpiece from one end of the furnace to the other end.
  • the first and/or the at least second and/or third transport mechanisms may be a roller mechanism.
  • Roller mechanisms are an appropriate transport mechanism for transporting metal workpieces through a furnace in connection with the invention, as roller mechanisms are durable and reliable.
  • the furnace may be a continuous furnace through which the at least first and second blank or blank batches are moved. Continuous furnaces may be advantageous, for instance, when the inventive method is used and conducted in a line production.
  • the at least first and second blank or blank batches may be heated to austenitization temperature.
  • it may be advantageous to heat said workpieces to austenitization temperature, so that hardening effects in at least some portions of the workpiece may be achieved upon rapid cooling or quenching in subsequent process steps.
  • At least one of said at least first and second blank or blank batches may be centered in a centering position at said furnace outlet. This may allow controlling the blank position at the outlet and to thereby better control the position of the blank at the furnace outlet, which may influence the position of heated and cooled portions of the blank.
  • At least one of said first and second blank or blank batches may be moved at least partially out of a furnace portion to said furnace outlet and then partially back into a cooling position at said outlet in which cooling position a portion of a respective blank is allowed to cool.
  • Each respective blank may be moved further into the furnace outlet in the centering position than a cooling position. This may allow centering each blank to achieve a desired distribution between heated and cooled portions of the blank or to align its position before it is transferred to a process situation.
  • the at least second and/or third transport mechanisms may be operated while the first transport mechanism of the furnace may be stopped or slowed. This may allow flexible management of the logistics at the furnace outlet. For instance, it may allow handling said at least first and second blank or blank batches at the furnace outlet and may allow slowing or stopping a further supply of heated blanks to the furnace outlet until those blanks present at said furnace outlet are removed.
  • the first transport mechanism may be operated together with said at least second or third transport mechanism while the other of said third or second transport mechanism is stopped or accelerated. This may allow more flexible control of the output of the furnace and handling of heated workpieces within the furnace and at the furnace outlet. It would allow, for instance, holding one blank or blank batch at the second transport mechanism while the first transport mechanism and the third transport mechanism together transport another blank to the furnace outlet.
  • the present invention may also provide a method of making a metal workpiece having regions of greater and lesser hardness comprising the steps of moving a first blank through a continuous furnace on a first roller mechanism, moving a second blank offset from the first blank through the continuous furnace on the first roller mechanism, heating the first and second blanks to austenitization temperature in the continuous furnace, and moving the first and second blanks independently from each other to a furnace outlet on at least a second and third roller mechanism.
  • furnace for heating at least two blanks or blank batches according to claim 1 1.
  • Such a furnace is simplified and less complex than the furnaces known from the prior art because the furnace outlet now comprises at least a second and third transport mechanism for transporting the at least two blanks while there is one transport mechanism inside the furnace portion.
  • At least one of said transport mechanisms may be a roller mechanism. Roller mechanisms may be advantageous because they are durable and reliable.
  • the at least second and third transport mechanisms may operate independently from each other. This can simplify the handling of blanks at the furnace outlet and may allow operating the furnace outlet more flexibly. "Independently” shall mean that said transport mechanisms may be controlled separately so that blanks thereon may be moved differently from each other.
  • a centering device may be provided at said furnace outlet.
  • Using a centering device may allow increasing the precision as the blanks may be centered prior to moving them back into the furnace for partial cooling, and/or prior to transferring the heated blanks to subsequent process stations such as forming tools.
  • said at least second and third transport mechanisms may be operated at different speeds than the first transport mechanism. This can allow increasing the flexibility in handling the blank at the furnace outlet because handling time may be saved due to moving the blanks faster on the at least second and third transport mechanisms.
  • the at least second and third transport mechanisms may be operated in different directions at the same time. This may allow moving blanks on said second and third transport mechanisms back and forth at the furnace outlet and may even allow at least partially reinserting blanks into the furnace.
  • said first transport mechanisms may be operated independently from each of said further transport mechanisms.
  • independently shall mean that the first transport mechanism may be operated differently from each of said further transport mechanisms insofar as each further transport mechanism may be operated faster or slower than the first transport mechanism and may operate in different directions.
  • the operation of all transport mechanisms may mainly be dependent on the loading pattern, for instance, the offset and number of tracks of the furnace. Operating said first transport mechanism independently/differently from each of said further transport mechanisms may allow more flexibly handling blanks in said furnace.
  • a continuous furnace for heating at least two blanks comprising a blank feed, a continuous furnace portion for transporting the at least two blanks offset from one another on at least 2 oven tracks, said at least two blanks being transported on a first roller mechanism, and a furnace outlet for receiving the at least two blanks from the continuous furnace and for transporting the at least two blanks on at least a second and third roller mechanism.
