Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a process for manufacturing elastic function parts with high mechanical characteristics from untreated spring steel, comprising a succession of heat treatment and forming operations.
  • this known method still has a certain number of drawbacks.
  • it involves two temperature rise operations (austenitization heating before quenching, tempering after quenching).
  • tempering after quenching the fact that the parts undergo cold forming or at least preforming, before any heating, it is impossible to carry out this heating on continuous material, for example strip.
  • the subject of the present invention is a method of manufacturing parts with an elastic function in treated spring steel making it possible to produce parts of equivalent quality or even better than that obtained by the usual methods at a lower cost.
  • the austenitization heating can advantageously be carried out in a fluidized bed bath or by induction, on continuous products (strips, crowns) or on blanks or pieces. It is also possible, within the framework of the invention, to carry out a cold preforming, before heating of austenitization, to give the parts a shape different from their final shape, in which case the warm forming carried out after heating of austenitization and isothermal quenching is intended above all to give the parts a more precise geometry and higher mechanical characteristics (thermomechanical treatment with lukewarm such as blocking in the case of springs).
  • the conventional method of hot forming before quenching requires heating of the parts as a whole at a temperature markedly above the transformation point to take account of the cooling that the parts undergo during the hot forming operation and during transfers.
  • the quenching operation (which gives the steel a bainitic structure) immediately follows the austenitization heating operation, the heat losses are very low and the lower heating temperature, since it is only used for quenching.
  • the untreated part of the metal plays a complementary role for quenching and the rest of the operations, by heat diffusion.
  • the replacement of the two quenching and tempering operations of the usual processes with isothermal quenching allows other significant energy savings.
  • the energy to bring the part to the tempering temperature is removed.
  • the holding time at the isothermal quenching temperature represents less than half of the holding time at the tempering temperature according to the usual methods.
  • Most of the energy induced during austenitization is returned to the fluidized quench bath isothermal, which allows this energy to be reused, for example for heating buildings.
  • the parts with bainitic structure are at a temperature higher than the martensite point, that is to say at a temperature of the order of 280-350 ° C. depending on the steel grades, and the residual energy that they contain can be used as and when the following operations are carried out warm (forming, blocking, prestressing, shot blasting, protection).
  • the process according to the invention thus makes it possible to recover the major part of the energy provided during austenitization.
  • Warm forming gives parts better precision and increases the mechanical characteristics of the finished product, notably promoting the blocking of dislocations induced during forming, due in particular to the increase in mobility of carbon atoms linked to temperature. Rapid heating followed by isothermal quenching eliminates any risk of decarburization.
  • the successive operations of the process according to the invention are carried out in a precise order making it possible to make the most of the energy stored in the material.
  • the choice of temperature for each operation aims to optimize the beneficial effects, in particular on a metallurgical level for shot peening and pre-forming (or blocking), and on the electrochemical level for anti-corrosion protection.
  • the method according to the invention does not require the formation of a so-called bonding layer generally obtained by chemical combination (phosphating) with the metal to be protected, the formation of this bonding layer resulting in a decrease in the surface mechanical characteristics of the parts.
  • the method according to the invention reduces the number of operations, in particular temperature rise and the temperature maintenance times.
  • the installations necessary for the implementation of the method are therefore of reduced dimensions.
  • the investments and the surface area required for an installation using the method according to the invention are divided by a factor of approximately five.
  • the process according to the invention makes it possible to considerably reduce the work in progress.
  • the outstanding amount is only 40 springs for the process according to the invention, while it is 1,200 in the conventional process.
  • a few minutes are sufficient to empty the installation of its parts for implementing the process according to the invention.
  • the process according to the invention eliminates all harmful fumes and vapors and makes work much less arduous.
  • the process according to the invention eliminates all the releases (fumes, vapors, detergents, etc.) from the usual hot forming and oil quenching process.
