6 Claims. (CI. 266-6) This invention relates to a method of and apparatus for the automatic hardening 'of heat treated metal objects. It relates more particularly to the quenching and hardening of gears such as are used in automotive vehicles. and the like.
In U. 8. Patent No. 1,948,480, granted February 20, 1934, it was pointed out that distortions of gears subjected to oil quenching can be avoided it the gears are held rigidly between clamping dies, and the oil forced around and in contact with the gear while it is held under heavy pressure. Further experimentation has developed the fact that the uniformity of the hardening may be mall terially increased and the process expedited by practicing the invention about to be described.
Whereas; in the prior patent, it was proposed to clamp the object to be hardened before it was subjected to the action of cooling oil under pres- 2 sure, it is now found that a much improved and more uniform product may be obtained and the distortion minimized by subjecting the object to be hardened to pre-cooling before it is subjected to heavy pressure in the machine. After the pre- 5 cooling operation, the object is clamped under hydraulic pressure as before andsubjected to the further action of the quenching oil under pressure. While it is not strictly essential, it is advantageous to ,hold the object being treated an loosely in the form during the 'pre-cooling, in or der to avoid excessive smoking when the cool oil strikes the highly heated surface 01 the metal.
The invention will now be'described in connection with the accompanying drawing in 35 which: i f
Figure l is a view, mainly in section, of one form of apparatus embodying this-invention, the control valve being shown in a position where the clamping means is released;
Fig. 2 is a section of the control valve of Fig. 1, with the parts in position to clamp the work and supply cooling oil thereto; and
Fig. 3 is a view similar to Fig. 2 showing the slide valve in the extreme left hand position as 45 in carrying out the final step of the hardening process.
The hardening machine illustrated herein conforms essentially to that shown and described in prior Patent 1,948,480, It comprises a bed 5 0 formed as a receptacle for cooling oil and supporting a work table 4. Fixedly mounted on this work table is a bottom swage or die 2 adapted to support an object to be hardened. here shown as a bevel gear I. The die 2 has a grooved upper surface so as to cooperate with the lagttom face istorced against the centering piece l2 to clamp of the object to be hardened and form cooling oil channels therewith. Cooperating with the die 2 and the gear I is a centering piece l2 sultablyconstructed to permit passage of cooling oil in contact with all surfacesoi the gear or other 5 object to be hardened, and having a conical opening l adapted to receive the conical portion above the cylindrical portion 22 of hydraulic plunger 23.
The top 6 of the bed 5 is constructed as a'preasure cylinder I! having a piston 24 mounted therein. Extending from the piston 24 is a tubular stem formed interiorly to receive and guide the plunger 23, and terminating at its lower end in an upper die 3 to engage the top of the object to be treated, and to clamp it in position against the lower die 2 so as to prevent warping of the work during the quenching operation. Also carried by the upper die adjacent the lower end of stem'20 is an enclosing housing adapted to cooperate with the table 4 to enclose the object 20 a to be treated.
The piston 24 may be moved up and down by means of pressure oil supplied to the cylinder I! through one of the pipes 42 or 43. when oil is supplied through pipe 43 the piston is raised as shown in Fig. 1, and when pressure oil is supplied through pipe 42 the piston 24 is lowered so that housing 25 encloses the object being treated and, at the same time, the inner plunger 23 the object between the two dies. Either a single or a plural source of pressure oil may be utilized to quench the work and operate the piston 24 and plunger 23. As here illustrated, a single source comprising a pump 52 receiving oil from pipe 21 supplies oil under pressure through a pipe 40 to a control valve 4|. The apparatus shown isof the type illustrated in the aforesaid patent. The pipes 42 and 43 are connected to this valve and another pipe 44 is adapted to at times connect the source of pressure oil, to one or the other of the pipes 3| or 26, depending upon the position 01 cock 46. with this arrangement, two types of circulation are possible. When the cook 46 occupies a position to allow oil to enter through pipe 3|, the oil circulation about the object being treated is around the outside of the object and then inwardly through the center and to the oil chamber. With the cock in the other position, oil is forced through 50 pipe 28 and the circulation through the table is outwardly from the center. A pipe serves to return oil to the reservoir irom the valve 4|. Pipe 21 serves to return the used ofl from the reservoir to the pump 2 which supplies the inlet 40.
Mounted within the valve casing 4| is a slide valve 49 adapted to control the flow of oil into the pipe 44 and to the pipes 42 and 43. Actuation of the slide valve 49 is brought about by means of a manually operated four-way cock 49' having a handle 49. When the valve occupies the position shown in Fig. 1, pressure 011 from pipe 40 passes through opening 43' to pipe 43 holding the piston 24 in its upmost position. Oil above the piston 24 is returned to the oil reservoir through .pipe 42, and thence through pipe 45. With the parts in this position, the pipe 44 is blanked, and no oil can be supplied to the work table.
When a work piece, such as the gear I, is placed on the bottom die 2, the cock 49' is moved to its right hand position as shown in Fig. 2, thereby causing pressure oil from pipe 49 to actuate slide valve 49 and to force that valve toward the left. At the same time, since the pipes 42 and 43 are connected with the discharge, the,
piston 24 gravitates downwardly until the top die 9 engages the gear I, and housing 25 encloses the work. Oil forced out of the cylinder I9 below the piston 24'returns through'pipe 43 and pipe 45 to the oil reservoir, as shown in Fig. 2. When channel 44' is uncovered, oil also passes from that channel through pipe 44 and into the housing around the work through one or the other of the pipes 9| or 26. As the slide valve 49 moves to the left in Fig. 2, oil from chamber Si is forced through channels 59 and 50, and pipe 45 back to the reservoir. Small area piston 29 contains a choke opening 51 terminating at one end in a ch eckvalve 58. This check valve permits movement of oil from left to right in Fig. 1 but prevents movement from right to left. Consequently, as the slide valve moves to the left, oil passes from chamber SI and thence back to the reservoir through channels 53. 59 and-45. During movement of the slide valve from right to left whenever pressure in chamber 5! exceeds that in chamber 52, oil flows from chamber 5! to chamber 52 through check valve 59.
The chambers 5| and 52 are of unequal volume and are so arranged that during the pre-cooling operation the movement of slide valve 49 to the left is retarded. This provides means for varying the duration of the pre-coollng step before heavy pressure is applied to the work. As shown in Fig. l, the slide valve occupies its extreme right-hand position in which piston 29 blanks the discharge channel 54. During the initial movement of slide valve 49 (Fig. 2) from right to left, oil can leave chamber 52 through channel 56 and also through channel I5 and choke 41'. Consequently the slide valve movement is retarded until piston 29 uncovers the channel 54 to afford another oil discharge path to take the place of 59 which is blanked. Movement of the slide .valve 49 from left to right can be accomplished by restoring the hand lever 49 to the position of Fig. 1 so that all parts reassume the positions there shown.
It will be clear that during the first stages of the automatic feed motion, the slide valve 49 moves with less velocity than it does during the later stages. In moving from right to left, it
closes the supply conduit 43' for the lower cylinder chamber and opens the conduit 44' for the cooling stream. Consequently. the object to be hardened is flooded with liquid during the first working stage and the two cylinder chambers. as well as their conduits 42 and 49, are connected with the discharge so that, at this stage, piston The choke 41' 5 l0 Dropping of the top die against the work in this first stage of the work is not absolutely necessary to the new method because the eiiective pressure is first exercised during a later stage of the method. This preliminary move- 15 ment of .the die is provided, however, in order that the housing 25, moved downwardly with the top die, may enclose the work and prevent excess development of smoke while the cooling operation is taking place. This preliminary movement of the die also speeds up the quenching operation.
The method defined herein consists essentially of three steps, that is, (1) preliminary cooling of the work, either with or without clamping, 25
(2) clamping the work, and (3) final quenching. Practice of this method results in a. uniform satisfactory product free from strains and other flaws resulting from uneven shrinkage of the work during the quenching and cooling of the 30 same. By combining the pre-cooling and clamping steps, the method may be carried out more expeditiously and the formation of smoke lesened. .In any event, the pro-cooling step materially improves the process over prior practice, 35
and results in a superior product. The provision of means for varying the duration of the precooling step assures ideal conditions for the treatment of the particular work at hand.
It will be understood that while one particular 40 form of control valve is shown, it may, in practice, assume other equivalent forms capable of carrying out the steps of the process automatically to assure ideal treating conditions.
