Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of production and application of a drive axle housing, and particularly relates to a pipe blank reducing method for a drive axle housing bulging forming process.
Background
The commercial vehicle drive axle is one of the core components of the whole vehicle, and the drive axle housing is an installation support body of a drive axle transmission system, plays an important role in bearing and force transmission in the vehicle running process, and is required to have higher mechanical strength, rigidity and fatigue resistance. The related documents show that if the whole vehicle mass of the automobile is reduced by 100kg, the oil consumption per hundred kilometers is reduced by 0.3L-0.6L, and the emission of carbon dioxide is reduced by 12 g. According to the related technical specification and the radial test value of the industry, the drive axle belongs to the mass below a steel plate spring, and the effect of reducing the unsprung mass by 1kg is equal to the effect of reducing the sprung mass by 15 kg. Taking a heavy truck driving axle housing as an example, the weight of the heavy truck driving axle housing is more than 100kg, the heavy truck driving axle housing is made of high-strength steel materials, and the technical window for expanding the optimized structure by adopting a new process technology is significant. The technical scheme of the existing axle housing product has four types: the method comprises the steps of integrally casting an axle housing, stamping and welding the axle housing, mechanically thermally expanding and forming the axle housing and internally high-pressure forming the axle housing.
The high-pressure integrally formed axle housing is mainly characterized in that water-based high-pressure liquid is filled into a pipe blank under the normal temperature condition, so that the pipe blank is stretched, deformed and attached to a die, and the integrally formed axle housing is obtained. According to the technical scheme, the original axle housing process is reduced by about 40% from 20 multi-pass procedures, and the advantages of more optimized product structure and higher production efficiency are embodied.
The current main process of the technical scheme is as follows: the method comprises the steps of multi-pass reducing of a pipe blank, heat treatment, internal high-pressure pre-bulging, local heat treatment and internal high-pressure forming. The main problems are that the yield strength and the elongation limit of the material are limited under the normal temperature condition, the deformation elongation of final internal high pressure forming needs to be controlled within 3-5%, the final bulging tube blank is required to have a larger diameter-changing rate, the large diameter-changing rate of the tube blank needs to be alternately combined with the pre-bulging process step through multi-pass diameter reduction, and meanwhile, in the deformation process of each process step, a larger acting force needs to be applied to the tube blank to overcome the yield strength of the material to deform the tube blank, so the tonnage of processing equipment of each process step is larger.

In order that the above objects, features and advantages of the present invention can be more clearly understood, the present invention will be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It should be noted that the embodiments and features of the embodiments of the present application may be combined with each other without conflict.
In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention, however, the present invention may be practiced in other ways than those specifically described herein, and thus the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments of the present disclosure.
In embodiment 1, this embodiment aims to provide a method for reducing a tube blank for a driving axle housing bulging forming process, so as to solve the problem that the diameter reduction of the driving axle housing bulging forming process can be realized only by reducing the diameter for multiple times in the existing diameter reduction process, and therefore, the method for reducing the tube blank for the driving axle housing bulging forming process provided in this embodiment is specifically implemented as follows:
firstly, selecting a proper original tube blank 7 according to an axle housing structure digital analog to be realized, wherein the axle housing mainly comprises an axle packet arranged in the middle and tube beams arranged on two sides of the axle packet, and a bridge shoulder structure is formed at a transition end between the axle packet and the tube beams, wherein the axle packet is similar to a bulge and is also the widest part of the whole axle housing, therefore, in the embodiment, three-dimensional data of the axle housing is obtained according to the drawing state of an axle housing product, as shown in fig. 1, the whole axle housing is divided into a left section and a right section by taking a central line as the center, and each section is divided into four parts, wherein an I area is a cylindrical section area, an III area is a square column section area with four rounded corners, an II area is a I, III area transition state, and an IV area is an area of the bridge shoulder and the bridge packet part. The axle housing cross-sectional perimeters were recorded as L1, L21-L2n, L3, L41-L4n, respectively, by equally dividing the unit along the cylindrical cross-sectional area toward the shoulder and the bridge pack area at 1% axial length. Wherein axle housing I-III district is the straight tube portion, directly confirms through the uniform cross section girth mode as:
the axle housing IV area is a variable diameter part, and the elongation of the circumference of the section is not higher than 5 percent, namely the circumference of the designed section of the original tube blank 7 is as follows:
95%L4x<L4max<L4x
the diameter of the original tube blank 7 in the area IV is obtained by calculating the diameter through the circumference:
and with D4xThe value of (D) is the diameter of the original tube blank 7, as shown in FIG. 3, and with respect to D1、D2xAnd D3The calculation is mainly used for controlling the reduction amount in the subsequent reduction process, and the reduced diameter blank is established by using the data as shown in fig. 2, according to the technical requirements of different models of commercial vehicles such as heavy trucks, light trucks and micro trucks, the ratio of the maximum diameter to the minimum diameter is usually within the range of 2-3, wherein the diameter of the L section of the tubular beam is smaller, and the length of the L section of the tubular beam is within the range of 400-900 mm.
Through the calculation, 90-97% of the maximum section length of the bridge package is taken as the diameter of the original tube blank 7, and the maximum section length is not taken as the diameter of the original tube blank 7 directly, so that the original tube blank 7 with a smaller diameter is used favorably, and the aim of reducing the production cost is fulfilled.
Because the diameter-thickness ratio of the axle housing pipe blank is generally more than 20 (the diameter of the pipe blank/the wall thickness of the pipe blank), the axle housing belongs to the category of thin-wall pipes, the conventional upsetting-extruding diameter-reducing method is adopted, the diameter-reducing ratio of each pass is generally not more than 15% of the original pipe diameter, so that the material is prevented from being unstably deformed to form wrinkles after being subjected to axial force, the diameter reduction of the axle housing needs to be reduced for multiple passes aiming at the requirement of large diameter-reducing ratio of the axle housing, and the heat treatment in the period is increased to eliminate the cold hardening phenomenon. Therefore, the diameter reducing process is improved, the radial die forging technical scheme is adopted, the large-diameter-reducing-rate diameter reduction can be efficiently realized, and the problem caused by the conventional cold heading diameter reduction is avoided.

In order to fix the original tube blank 7, the walking trolley 2 is provided with two clamps 25, one of the clamps 25 is similar to a structure of a triangular chuck machined in the prior art, and clamps the end part of the original tube blank 7 from inside and outside, as shown in fig. 5, the other clamp is used for clamping the outer side only when the diameter of one end of the original tube blank 7 needs to be locked after the diameter of the other end is reduced, and the clamping mechanism is similar to a clamping scheme of a multi-petal reducing mould 4 structure, so that the tube blank is clamped.
In order to drive the clamp 25 to rotate, a driving motor 21 is arranged at the top of the walking trolley 2, a speed reducer 22 is connected to a power end of the driving motor 21, a driving gear 23 is connected to a power end of the speed reducer 22, and a rotating gear 24 meshed with the driving gear 23 is arranged at the end of the clamp 25, so that the rotation of the clamp 25 can be realized by the rotation of the driving motor 21, and the rotation of the original blank is completed. In this embodiment, the mode of adopting the rotary feeding can effectively avoid the material to lose stability after receiving the axial force and form the fold.
In order to realize the feeding of the original tube blank 7, a walking motor 26 is arranged on the walking trolley 2, in the present embodiment, the walking motor 26 is vertically arranged on a flat plate at the bottom of the walking trolley 2, a power end of the walking motor 26 is arranged upward, a walking reducer 27 is connected to the power end of the walking reducer 27, and a walking gear 28 is connected to the power end of the walking reducer 27. In this way, the traveling carriage 2 is driven by the auxiliary gear, but if the power end of the traveling motor 26 is disposed downward, the traveling gear 28 may be directly fixed to the power end of the traveling reducer 27.

The shape of the cross section of the closed die is consistent with the diameter change taper after reducing the diameter, considering D4xReducing directly to D3The contact surface of the multi-petal diameter reducing die 4 and the original blank pipe has a large variation, and for this purpose, the contact surface includes horizontal surfaces 41 disposed at both ends and a transition inclined surface 42 disposed between the horizontal surfaces 41, wherein the transition inclined surface 42 is used for realizing the transition between two horizontal surfaces 41 with different diameters. Wherein the diameter of the horizontal plane 41 near the end of the original tubular blank 7 and D4xThe same, and the diameter of the horizontal surface 41 away from the surface is equal to D3Similarly, the transition inclined surface 42 is used to realize the transition between the two horizontal surfaces 41, so as to make the two horizontal surfaces gradually transit and reduce the diameter, thereby ensuring the diameter reduction effect, and in the embodiment,taking Q460C high-strength steel as an example, the multi-petal reducing die 4 is opened and closed in a reciprocating way at the frequency of 1-2Hz, the contraction force is applied to the workpiece, the contraction stroke is controlled to be 5-10mm each time, and the tube blank advances 15-20mm along the axis when the die is loosened. When the end part of the tube blank enters the taper root part of the die, the tube blank is extruded by the die and the die core in the wall thickness direction, so that the controlled stable and consistent wall thickness can be formed after the tube blank leaves the die.
In consideration of the problem of material deformation limit of cold heading diameter reduction, in the embodiment, the front end of the die holder 3 is further provided with the induction heating coil 6, and the induction heating coil 6 heats according to the yield strength change of the material at different temperatures, so that the original pipe blank 7 is deformed in a high-elongation and low-yield-strength state, and the diameter reduction can be realized by a small force.
In this embodiment, the fixing frame 5 is provided at an end of the die holder 3 away from the pipe blank rotating and axial feeding mechanism, and may be provided separately or on the die holder 3.
