Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of manganese steel compositions and more particularly to the application of these compositions in methods of joining railroad track installations.
- the junction of railway track elements and in particular the junction between, on the one hand, a high manganese alloy steel track core and, on the other hand, a rail involves the use of a part. intermediate made by a stainless steel insert.
- the respective compositions of the steels which constitute each of the two elements of the junction prevent the realization of a direct weld of good quality.
- the weld causes the formation of an alloy whose composition is different from that of the different base materials.
- the combination of the carbon steel of the rail with the alloy of the channel core results in the formation in the melting zone of a steel alloy whose nature is difficult to control and whose properties of resistance to shocks and vibrations are relatively low with a high risk of rupture in this zone as well as in the thermally affected zone.
- the present invention aims to overcome this drawback by proposing a railway junction allowing direct welding of a track core with a steel rail whose carbon content is not imperatively restricted, this rail junction having a improved strength at break as well as in some couples material a higher wear resistance.
- the subject of the invention is thus a railway junction by direct welding between, on the one hand, a track core and, on the other hand, a rail, characterized in that at least one of the two joined elements is formed by a steel, the composition of which
- the invention also relates to a direct welding process, characterized in that the method is implemented at a railway junction according to the invention.
- FIG. 1 relates to a summary table of the examples of chemical composition of steel according to the invention
- FIG. 2 relates to a table summarizing the mechanical properties of a steel according to one of the chemical compositions according to the invention
- FIG. 3 relates to a graphical representation of the hardness of a direct solder junction as a function of the distance from the center of this junction
- FIG. 4 relates to examples of flexural test according to the European standard three direct welds according to the invention operated by sparking.
- railway refers to both dormant railroad rail elements and dormant railway track elements.
- the present invention is based in particular on a railway junction by direct welding between, on the one hand, a track core and, on the other hand, a rail, characterized in that at least one of the two joined elements is formed by a steel whose composition presents:
- Such a composition of one of the elements makes it possible, by virtue of its very low carbon content, to facilitate the welding of the element with a second where the composition of the steel does not have a carbon content that is too low and addition elements that promote a better weld.
- the manganese content greater than 1 1% ensures a better wear resistance to deformation and hardening. This higher manganese content in the steel composition maintains its breaking strength while decreasing the carbon content.
- the role of carbon in this steel is to obtain sufficient hardness of the steel mainly by strengthening solid solution.
- a high carbon content leads to an increase in the amount of retained austenite, resulting in a reduction in hardness.
- An increase in the carbon content will significantly improve the risk of embrittlement of the grain boundaries in these steels, due to the formation of carbide in the form of networks, on the one hand, in the as-manufactured state, and secondly, as a result of welding. Therefore, to maintain the delicate balance between the hardness and the risk of embrittlement, the carbon content must be between 0.01 and 0.12% for these steels (all compositions are given as a percentage of weight, unless indicated opposite).
- the weldability is improved with a carbon content of less than 0.10, preferably less than 0.08.
- the carbon content is at least 0.01% and preferably at least 0.02%. From a steel manufacturing point of view, a suitable minimum carbon content is of the order of 0.04%.
- Manganese is an element promoting austenite. It stabilizes the austenite, for example by increasing the temperature range in which the austenite is formed.
- a variation in the manganese content in the steels according to the invention has revealed that a maximum of hardness is obtained with a manganese content of at least 11%. At very high levels of manganese, for example at 15%, the hardness decreases to an insufficient level. The hardness shows an intimate correlation with the wear resistance. Wear resistance is a determining factor in the service life of most railway parts, including switches. A low wear rate means that the repair of the part is needed less frequently. The significant difference in wear resistance between steels with a manganese content of less than 11% and those with a content greater than 1% is attributed to differences in the microstructure.
- the residual austenite levels become sufficiently high that the increase in the hardness of the martensitic phase is largely offset by the increasing proportion of the softer austenite, so that the Total hardness of steel decreases with wear resistance. Resistance to crack propagation is high and is associated with a very slow progression of breaks. With this, the possibility of detecting developing fatigue cracks is increased, and the affected part (s) can be removed or repaired before complete damage occurs.
- the manganese content is preferably between at least 11% and at most 15%. Since manganese is also a costly alloying element, a maximum content of suitable manganese has been found at 14% or even 13%. A suitable minimum content of manganese was 1 1.5%.
- the rail junction by direct welding is characterized in that at least one of the two elements of this junction is formed by a steel whose composition has:
- Molybdenum is effective in increasing the impact resistance of steel. Moreover, due to the effect of purification (scavenging effect) of molybdenum for phosphorus, the phenomena of embrittlement of anger are prevented. At a level of 0.6% molybdenum, the increase in impact resistance is already noticeable, but a further increase is obtained with values above 0.6%. Increased levels of impact resistance peak at a value of 1.5%. Also, the addition of molybdenum in this steel must be between 0.6% and 2.95%, with a molybdenum content which is preferably at least 1.25%. A molybdenum content of 1.5% was found to be a suitable minimum value for stable values of impact resistance. A molarbdenum content of 1.90% was judged to be a maximum value adapted from a combined cost and a technical perspective since additions to values above 1.90% resulted only in a modest improvement.
- silicon has little effect on the impact resistance and wear resistance of these steels, although it provides an increase in tensile strength and hardness by solution strengthening. solid. Silicon also serves as a deoxidizing agent (killing agent) during steel production. On this basis, a maximum value of Si of 0.5% is recommended. A suitable minimum content of 0.10 or even 0.15% and / or a suitable maximum level of 0.40 or even 0.35% have been determined.
- Nickel (Ni), cobalt (Co) and copper (Cu) show a similar effect to that of manganese (Mn) through their ability to promote the formation of austenite. To some extent these elements can be added, or even replace, manganese.
- the alloys according to the invention have been found to be easily machinable.
- One or more additions of sulfur, calcium, tellurium, or selenium, or any other known element to improve machinability can be made to achieve these alloys if necessary.
- the phosphorus content is generally kept below 0.02% to minimize the risk of hot cracking.
- the steel according to the invention is preferentially deoxidized by silicon (silicon killed). Provided that the cleanliness of the steel remains in accordance with the specifications in terms of the maximum value of the inclusions of aluminum oxide, the steel can also be deoxidized by aluminum (killed aluminum) or by an association aluminum-silicon (aluminum-silicon killed)
- the steel according to the invention has a hydrogen content of less than 5 ppm, preferably less than 3.5 ppm and ideally less than 2.5 ppm.
- chromium is preferentially kept below an impurity level of 0.15%, chromium is not added deliberately. For some applications, chromium can be added up to a level of 0.3%.
- the rail joint by direct welding is characterized in that the composition of the steel of at least one of the two elements of the junction comprises a silicon content of less than 0, 1%.
- the composition of the steel of at least one of the two elements of the junction comprises an austenite content corresponding to at least 15% of the volume in its hot rolled state or in the element of the junction at room temperature.
- the composition of the steel has a carbon content of less than 0.02%.
- the composition of the steel has a chromium content of between 0.02% and 0.03%.
- this railway junction by direct welding is characterized in that the track core is formed by a steel whose composition is defined according to the present document.
- the present invention also relates to a direct welding process characterized in that it is implemented at a railway junction according to the invention.
- the direct soldering method according to the invention involves a spark welding step.
- the direct soldering method according to the invention involves an electric welding step.
- the direct soldering method according to the invention involves a welding step by alumino thermie.
- an advantage of the railway junction according to the invention represented by the results of FIG. 3 is a reduced variation of the hardness compared to a conventional railway junction.
- the railway junction according to the invention allows a direct weld whose resistance to breakage and wear is greater and improved.
- the combination of this breaking strength with the wear resistance is also confirmed by the results presented in FIG. 4, which show deformation tests of the direct welded rail junction according to the European standard EN 14587.
