2. Description of the Related Art For railway trolley wires and the like, a copper-coated steel trolley wire has been proposed, which uses a steel wire as a core material and a copper-coated steel wire in which the core material is coated with copper. It is used for trains (Japanese Patent Publication No. 2-1460).
(See Japanese Patent Publication). This conventional copper-coated steel trolley wire is obtained by continuously immersing the steel wire in a molten copper, solidifying and adhering the copper around the steel wire, and then hot rolling in a certain temperature range. It is manufactured by making a copper-coated steel wire with, and then drawing it.

According to this conventional method for producing a copper-coated steel trolley wire, when the steel wire is dipped in a molten copper to adhere the copper to the surface of the steel wire, the surface of the steel wire improves the wettability with the copper. So it must be very smooth and active. Therefore, the pretreatment of the steel wire surface requires very strict control. Specifically, of course the cleaning of the steel wire surface,
The average surface roughness of the steel wire must be smoothed to 0.5 μm or less.

On the other hand, generally used pretreatment methods such as pickling, shot blasting, brush polishing, etc. can remove dirt such as oxide film on the surface of the steel wire, but the surface smoothness becomes poor, and as a result, steel Apply copper evenly to the wire surface,
It cannot be solidified, leaving voids and poorly joined portions at the interface between the copper and the steel core.

Therefore, at present, the surface of a steel wire is continuously peeled off by a tool die (hereinafter referred to as a peeling die) which has been subjected to a special process, and is introduced into a vacuum-evacuated housing to keep the state.

However, in this conventional manufacturing method, since the melting furnace, the holding furnace and the like are very large in terms of equipment, the maintenance cost and energy cost are high and the cost is high. Since the peeling die is used as described above, there is a problem that the peeling die has a short life. Further, the conventional manufacturing method has a serious drawback that only a low strength steel wire having a carbon content of 0.35% by weight or less can be used as a core material. It has a carbon content of 0.
When a so-called hard steel wire exceeding 35% by weight is used, the blade edge of the peeling die is very likely to be chipped during manufacturing,
This is because uniform peeling cannot be performed. If uniform peeling cannot be achieved, copper cannot be evenly adhered to the surface of the steel wire, which causes various problems such as poor bondability between the copper and the steel core and disconnection during wire drawing. Furthermore, the life of the peeling die becomes very short, and it becomes impossible to produce a product of the expected length.

Therefore, in the conventional manufacturing method, the carbon content of the steel wire as the core material must be limited to 0.35% by weight or less, and therefore the strength of the copper-coated steel trolley wire obtained is standard in Japan.

It has been found that a high-strength copper-coated steel trolley wire using a hard steel wire having a carbon content exceeding 0.35% can be stably obtained.

However, if the coating pressure, the withdrawal rate, etc. are too high, the stability becomes poor. In order to keep the bondability between the steel wire and copper high and to continuously and stably obtain the copper-coated steel wire, it is necessary to make the forming state such that A 1 is 70% or more of A 0. . According to the present invention, it is possible to obtain a copper-coated steel wire which is effective as a high-strength trolley using a hard steel wire.

The copper 2 to be extruded is continuously drawn into the introduction passage 13 of the molding machine 1 in a state where the oxide film on the surface and dirt such as oil are completely removed, and after changing the direction by the abutment 15. , Is supplied to the inside of the die chamber 14. At this time, the copper inside the die chamber 14 and inside the die chamber 14 becomes plastic flow due to the frictional heat and high pressure generated between the inlet passage 13 and the shoe block 12, but the temperature of the copper inside the die chamber 14 That is, the temperature of the extruded copper is preferably in the temperature range of 600 ° C to 800 ° C.

The steel wire 3 serving as the core material is cleaned by the pretreatment device 4 so that the surface is free of oxide film, oil, etc.
And it is smoothed to an appropriate surface roughness. Then, while the surface is heated to a high temperature by the induction heating device 5, it is guided into the chamber of the die chamber 14 of the molding machine 1 through the nipple 16 through the protective tube 9 kept in the non-oxidizing atmosphere. The steel wire 3 guided into the chamber of the die chamber 14 through the nipple 16 is wrapped in the plasticized copper 19 that has entered the chamber from another direction as described above, and is crimped to form a copper-coated steel wire. Then, it is pushed out through the die 17 and then continuously wound up by the winder 8 through the cooling tank 6 and the take-up machine 7.

In this embodiment, in order to enhance the bondability between the steel wire and the copper, it is necessary to cover and crimp the copper on the steel wire in the die chamber 14 at a pressure high enough to deform the steel core. is there. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 2, when the cross-sectional area of the steel wire 3 before extrusion coating is A 0 and the cross-sectional area of the steel core 21 of the copper-coated steel wire 20 after extrusion coating is A 1 , The molding state (coating pressure, withdrawal rate, etc.) is set so that A 1 is smaller than A 0 , that is, a significant difference is observed between both cross-sectional areas. Under extrusion conditions such that the cross-sectional area of the steel core 21 after coating is the same as that of the steel wire 3 before coating, the boundary between the steel core and copper is only physical contact, and metallic joining cannot be obtained. Especially when the unevenness of the surface of the steel wire 3 is large,
The recesses on the surface of the steel wire are not crimped by the pressure of copper and remain as voids at the interface between the copper and the steel wire. If there are many voids remaining at the interface like this, it will cause poor joint between the copper and steel core.If the joint interface is exposed due to cracks etc. in the environment such as outdoors, rainwater will invade from the voids. This causes problems such as corrosion progressing.

On the other hand, in order to continuously and stably obtain a copper-coated steel wire having a high bondability between the steel wire and copper, the copper-coated steel wire 20
It is necessary that the sectional area A 1 of the steel core 21 of No. 2 is 70% or more of the initial sectional area A 0 . When the sectional area A 1 of the steel core 21 is deformed to less than 70% of the initial sectional area A 0 ,
Although the joint between the steel core and copper becomes strong, the steel core diameter changes greatly due to fluctuations in the copper pressure, fluctuations in the winding tension during extrusion, etc., and the resulting mechanical properties of the copper-coated steel wire in the longitudinal direction. This is because there is a large variation and the stability cannot be guaranteed when continuously producing long products.

As described above, in the case of extrusion molding,
Pre-treatment of the steel wire is different from the conventional method using a peeling die, because it is possible to obtain sufficient bondability in use by pressing and crimping copper around the steel wire at a high pressure and extruding and covering it. It is sufficient to carry out the cleaning and appropriate smoothing by carrying out the acid washing, blasting, brush polishing, etc. by one unit or plural units or by using them in combination.
Therefore, it is not necessary to limit the steel wire 3 as the core material to a steel type having a low carbon content, and a hard steel wire material having a carbon content of more than 0.35% by weight is used to further improve the strength of the copper-coated steel. Wire and high strength copper coated trolley wire can be manufactured. When manufacturing a high-strength copper-coated steel trolley wire by a manufacturing method by extrusion, it is possible to extrude with a round wire as in the conventional method and then perform wire drawing to finish the trolley wire shape. By selecting, it is possible to extrude with a shape close to the trolley wire shape and simplify the subsequent wire drawing step.
