In Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 4-37898,
Because it has a unique structure in which the winding machine is covered with a sealed cover, a dedicated equipment is required from winding to slow cooling equipment, and the existing wire production line can hardly be used. Furthermore, in Japanese Patent Publication No. Hei 7-98977, the gradual cooling process in the coil is a pot system, and it is difficult to control the temperature of each device individually, and there is a problem that productivity is low and it is not suitable for continuous operation. . In addition, these conventional slow cooling lines require relatively high temperatures (850 ° C.).
As described above, since the slow cooling was started, there was also a disadvantage that the line length was inevitably increased. In any case, even if any conventional technology related to wire rolling and heat treatment is examined, no example is considered at all that considers both controlled rolling and annealing treatment.

The conditioning cooling conveyor 5 for transporting the ring-shaped wire 10 is covered with a heat insulating cover 6 around the entire circumference, thereby preventing a temperature drop from rolling to convergence and maximizing the effect of controlled rolling. And at the same time, serves as a conveyer that causes the slow cooling start to be performed at a predetermined temperature that does not fall below the Ar 1 transformation point. Desirably, a heating device 13 such as a radiant tube or a heater is installed in the heat retaining cover 6, and the inside of the cover is heated as necessary to prevent a temperature drop. The adjusted cooling conveyor 5 may have a length corresponding to the holding time, or may be omitted when the holding is not necessary. The wire may be bundled into a coil immediately after winding.

Hereinafter, a preferred embodiment of the rolling apparatus according to the present invention, and a preferred length of the water-cooled / retrograde (particularly, water-cooled / retrograde at the entrance of the finishing block mill 2) and the in-line heat treatment furnace will be described. The finishing block mill 2 is formed from a block mill having a 4-roll stand or less, and the area reduction rate is 2
The range is 5 to 60%. FIG. 4 shows the relationship between the finish area reduction rate and the temperature rise in the finishing mill in a 4-roll stand block mill.
Assuming that C is an allowable value, it can be seen that the appropriate area reduction rate is in the range of 25 to 60%. According to the study of the present inventors, after cooling as much as possible in a water-cooled zone 3b described below in a range where a supercooled structure does not occur, the temperature rise in finish rolling is increased by 60 ° C.
It has been found that the effect of controlled rolling can be sufficiently obtained if the content is suppressed as follows.

That is, if the reduction in area in the finish rolling is less than 25%, the strain applied to the material is not sufficient, resulting in a non-uniform strain distribution in the cross section, and the crystal grains grow locally and the grain size increases. It becomes uneven and a phenomenon called "coarse grain" occurs,
Workability such as machinability is significantly deteriorated. On the other hand, if the area reduction rate exceeds 60%, the temperature rise due to the heat generated by processing becomes sharply large, and the targeted controlled rolling becomes impossible. Moreover, considering that the optimum average area reduction rate of each roll in the finishing block mill is about 15%, it is preferable that the number of roll stands of the block mill is 2 or more and 4 or less. The number of roll stands can be appropriately changed within a range of four roll stands or less depending on conditions such as the size of a wire to be rolled.

Next, since the steel material temperature at the exit side of the block mill 1 before finishing reaches about 900 ° C., the water cooling zone 3 b arranged on the entrance side of the finishing block mill 2 is fed to the next finishing block mill 2. It is essential that the temperature be maintained at about 700 ° C., which is the finish-side temperature for performing good controlled rolling. The zone between the mills including the water-cooled zone 3b is:
In addition to the water cooling function, it is also required to have a heat recovery function to equalize the temperature distribution in the cross section generated during water cooling, and to achieve this, the distance between both mills (shown by d in FIG. 2)
It is important to identify In this case, water cooling may be performed in a very short time, but at least about 0.1 second is required for recuperation. If this recuperation time is not sufficient, an excessive temperature difference in the cross section of the steel material will occur. , Which may cause uneven material generation in finish rolling.

For the above reasons, the block mill 1 before finishing
In order to perform water cooling and reheating between the and the finishing block mill 2, it is necessary to take a distance of at least 1/10 or more of a distance that travels at a maximum rolling speed (finishing block mill exit side speed). For example, if the maximum rolling speed is 100 m / sec, it is required to provide a water cooling / reheating zone of at least 10 m. At this time, the finishing block mill entry side speed is lower than the maximum rolling speed by an amount corresponding to the rate at which the steel material is reduced in the finishing block mill, and is slightly less than the 0.1 second required for the reheating. A long time can be secured, and water cooling can be completed in this time zone. In addition, although the zone length has the advantage that the longer the zone length, the more the recuperation can be sufficiently performed, it not only increases the length of the entire facility, but also causes a problem that the material permeability is deteriorated. Is not preferable, and it is desirable to suppress the rolling speed to 1/2 or less of the maximum rolling speed. However, the present invention does not particularly limit the upper limit of the zone length.

Further, it is desirable to specify the length of the in-line heat treatment furnace 8, in other words, the in-furnace time of the wire coil in order to effectively perform the slow cooling subsequent to the controlled rolling. That is, in order to obtain the target soft wire,
Since it is required to gradually cool the transformation temperature range over the entire coil, the target of the slow cooling rate is 0.1 ° C.
Under the restriction of not more than / sec, if the charging temperature of the wire coil into the heat treatment furnace is determined, the furnace time can be determined.

FIG. 5 shows the relationship between the furnace time and the temperature of the wire rod coil. As schematically shown in the upper right of the figure, the wire rod coil is divided into a coil outer surface layer (between the figures in the shaded area) and an inner coil (between the figures). When left to cool, it is a part that is cooled at a faster cooling rate than the target of the slow cooling rate, and needs to be gradually cooled in the heat treatment furnace to a temperature below the transformation temperature range. On the other hand, the inside of the coil is a portion that is cooled below the target of the slow cooling rate even if it is allowed to cool outside the furnace, and a sufficient slow cooling rate can be obtained even if the coil is discharged outside the furnace without completing the transformation. Therefore, when slow cooling is performed by setting the furnace temperature so that the maximum cooling speed portion (in FIG. 5) on the outer surface of the coil becomes the target cooling speed of 0.1 ° C./sec, the portion where the cooling speed on the outer surface of the coil is the lowest is obtained. (Of FIG. 5) was found to be 0.07 ° C./sec regardless of the coil shape and wire diameter.

At the above 0.07 ° C./sec, the slow cooling start temperature is set to Ar
It takes at least 0.25hr to gradually cool the section of approximately 60 ° C from just above one point until the transformation is completed and the temperature falls below the required temperature range, and the lower limit for determining the size of the heat treatment furnace is required. Is an index indicating At this time, considering the temperature variation in the coil as an operational variable,
Since the slow cooling start temperature needs to be set slightly higher than just above Ar 1 point, the stabilization of the quality can be achieved by securing the furnace time preferably 0.5 hours or more. However, even if the furnace time is increased to 1.0 hour or more, the effect of slow cooling is saturated and no improvement is observed, and the facility is simply redundant. As a result, it is necessary that the size of the heat treatment furnace is such that 1/4 to 1/1 of the number of coils rolled for 1 hour at the maximum rolling capacity can be used in the furnace.
