Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to the field of screw pump technologies, and in particular to a rotary mold extrusion molding processing of a screw pump rotor.


BACKGROUND

A screw pump is a rotary pump which conveys liquid or increases pressure by use of change or movement of an engaging space volume formed by a pump body and a screw rod, which has the advantages of smooth medium conveyance, low turbulence of discharged medium, weak pressure pulsation, small mechanical vibration, low noise, good self-suction performance, good suction performance, working capability of high rotation, insensitivity to medium viscosity, compact and simple structure, small overall size, light weight, high efficiency, reliable operation, long service life, convenient operation and repair and the like. Therefore, the screw pumps are widely used in the following four aspects: conveying liquid; realizing multi-phase mixed conveyance of liquid, gas and solid; conveying viscous medium with extremely high viscosity; and serving as hydraulic pump of a hydraulic system.


A screw pump is a liquid conveying device where a rotor is its major rotary component. Generally, the rotor is made of solid metal material and has a special spatial helical structure. In order to realize the special helical structure, a special processing device is usually adopted to perform cylindrical turning for a metal rod. However, when a metal material is subjected to plastic deformation below a recrystallization temperature, because dislocation density continuously increases, mutual intersection of dislocation movement will be aggravated, resulting in dislocation pileup group, dislocation jog, and tangle web and the like. In this case, the dislocation is hindered from further moving and deformation resistance is increased so that the strength and hardness of the metal are increased and the plasticity and toughness are decreased, resulting in loss of ability to continue deforming, which is called work hardening or cold work hardening. In an actual production, before a material is cold-worked, it is required to remove the work hardening phenomenon by softening annealing process.


However, strict requirements are imposed on normal softening annealing and cooling process. For example, when the work hardening is removed by spheroidizing annealing, spheroidizing cores will be reduced due to excessively high temperature or excessively long holding time, which will easily cause difficulty to cylindrical turning, low production efficiency, high production costs and poor performance of rotor. Therefore, it is very necessary to improve cylindrical turning performance of the metal material, reduce processing costs, and increase processing efficiency to produce rotors with better performance.


SUMMARY

In order to overcome the defects of the prior art, the present disclosure provides a rotary mold extrusion molding process of a screw pump rotor. The process features high utilization of material, low processing costs and high processing efficiency in a manufacturing process, and the screw pump rotor has the advantages of good wear resistance, good corrosion resistance, good fouling resistance, and long service life and the like.


In order to achieve the above object, the present disclosure adopts the following technical solution.


Provided is a rotary mold extrusion molding process of a screw pump rotor, including:


1) heat treatment: performing isothermal spheroidizing annealing for a metal embryo material after treating the metal embryo material ultrasonically for 8-30 s;


2) machining: performing cylindrical turning for the annealed metal embryo material and then performing sand-blasting, and soaking the metal embryo material in saponified oil for 10 min˜30 min for lubrication treatment, where the saponified oil contains a nano-silicon carbide of 0.5%˜8% which is a nano-silicon carbide mixture with particle size of 20 nm˜60 nm and 140 nm˜200 nm with a mixed weight ratio of 1:(2.8-4);


3) rotary mold extrusion molding: at room temperature, placing the lubricated metal embryo material into an extrusion cylinder for rotary mold extrusion molding to obtain a finished product.


In the present disclosure, the isothermal spheroidizing annealing is firstly performed for the metal embryo material, and then, cylindrical turning is performed for the metal embryo material, and then lubrication is performed with saponified oil, and finally, a screw pump rotor with good wear resistance, good corrosion resistance, good fouling resistance and long service life is manufactured by rotary mold extrusion molding. In the isothermal spheroidizing annealing assisted with ultrasonic treatment, the homogenization degree of the metal embryo material structure can be improved to eliminate stress, so that the internal structure of the metal reaches or approaches equilibrium state. In this case, an excellent cutting performance is obtained, which helps subsequent cutting processing and reduces generation of oxide on the surface of the metal, so that the heat-treated metal embryo material has a high toughness, helping to improve the corrosion resistance and wear resistance of the screw pump rotor. Compared with use of silicon carbide with a single particle size, the silicon carbide with different particle sizes added to the saponified oil will help lubricate the metal embryo material and uniformly form a layer of film on the surface, thereby reducing friction between the metal and the extrusion cylinder during a subsequent extrusion process, decreasing material loss, and significantly improving the wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and fouling resistance of the rotor. Thus, energy consumption will be reduced and the service life is extended. In addition, when the screw pump rotor is used to convey a liquid, rotor heat can be reduced and influence on the quality of the conveyed liquid will be diminished.


In some specific examples, the metal embryo material includes the components with the following contents: carbon steel 60%˜65%, chromium 20%˜28%, nickel 5%˜10%, titanium 0.1%˜5%, zirconium ≤0.15%, wherein the carbon steel has a carbon content of 0.28%˜0.32%.


In some specific examples, the mass percentage of chromium and nickel is 1:(0.28˜0.36).


In some examples, the mass percentage of zirconium in the metal embryo material is 0.08%˜0.15%.


The inventor of the present disclosure found through study that a metal embryo material can be made by adding chromium, nickel, titanium and zirconium with different weight contents to carbon steel and a screw pump rotor with good wear resistance, good corrosion resistance, good fouling resistance can be made with the metal embryo material through a rotary mold extrusion molding process, increasing the processing efficiency. Specifically, by controlling the addition mass percentage of chromium and nickel to 1:(0.28˜0.36), the brittleness of the metal embryo material is reduced, and the toughness and strength of the metal embryo material are increased, thereby increasing the cutting performance and providing favorable effect to the wear resistance and corrosion resistance of the screw pump rotor. By adding zirconium with a mass percentage of 0.08%˜0.15%, the cutting performance of the metal embryo material is improved, the surface roughness of the metal embryo material is reduced, and the wear resistance of the screw pump rotor is increased for the following reason: the addition of zirconium, chromium and nickel provides refining effect for the structure of the metal embryo material, helping improvement of structure of material and stress elimination in a heat treatment process, and thereby achieving the effect of reducing the surface roughness and improving the wear resistance.


In some specific examples, in the isothermal spheroidizing annealing process, a heating temperature is 950° C.˜1050° C., a heating time is 4.5 h˜5 h and a holding time is 1.5 h˜4 h.


In some specific examples, in the isothermal spheroidizing annealing process, an isothermal temperature is 830° C.˜850° C. and an isothermal holding time is 2 h˜6 h.


In some specific examples, in the isothermal spheroidizing annealing process, the temperature of the ultrasonic treatment is (T1−CZr×40000)° C., where T1 refers to the isothermal temperature, CZr refers to the addition percentage of zirconium (Zr). Study shows that by controlling the temperature of the ultrasonic treatment process, the purpose of significant crystal grain refining and structural homogenization improvement is achieved and oxide produced by the metal in a high temperature heating process is eliminated, helping to remove the internal stress of the metal embryo material, improve the processing performance, increase the strength and toughness of the material and also providing a favorable effect on fouling resistance and corrosion resistance of the material.


In some specific examples, in the isothermal spheroidizing annealing process, the annealing temperature is (T1−CZr×50000)° C. where T1 refers to the isothermal temperature, CZr refers to the addition percentage content of Zirconium (Zr), and the cooling rate is 0.5° C./min˜0.8° C./min. By controlling the annealing temperature and the cooling rate of the annealing process, carbide particles with an appropriate fineness are obtained and the hardness of the metal embryo material is reduced, helping subsequent molding processing, and improving the toughness and strength of the material.


In some specific examples, the rotary mold extrusion molding process can produce a finished product meeting the dimensional design requirements of the screw pump rotor according to the prior art.

In order to verify the technical effect of the present disclosure, the following test was performed for the heat-treated metal embryo material in the present disclosure.


Experimental example 1


Impact toughness, Vickers hardness, yield strength and tensile strength of the metal embryo material were tested:


Reference was made to GB/T4340.3-1999 for the test of Vickers hardness of the metal embryo material, to GB/T33144-2016 for the test of impact toughness, to GB/T228.1-2010 for the test of yield strength and tensile strength. The test results of the impact toughness and the Vickers hardness are illustrated in FIG. 1, and the test results of the yield strength and the tensile strength are illustrated in FIG. 2.


As shown in FIG. 1, in the process of manufacturing the screw pump rotor with the process of the present disclosure, the heat-treated metal embryo material has a Vickers hardness between 156 HV and 244 HV. Comparison of the examples 1 and 14-17 shows the annealing temperature and the cooling rate have great influence on the hardness of the metal embryo material; it can be seen from the test result of impact toughness that that the heat-treated metal embryo material has an increased toughness, and decreased brittleness, facilitating subsequent molding process. Also, it shows that the addition mass ratio of chromium to nickel in the metal embryo material, ultrasonic treatment, and annealing treatment have a significant effect on the toughness of the metal embryo material.


As shown in FIG. 2, in the process of manufacturing the screw pump rotor with the process of the present disclosure, the heat-treated metal embryo material has a high yield strength and tensile strength. Comparison of examples 1-6 shows that addition of chromium and nickel into the metal embryo material helps to improve the strength of the metal embryo material, and the addition weight ratio of chromium to nickel also has significant effect on the strength of the material. Comparison of example 1 and 16-17 shows that the temperature and the cooling rate of the annealing treatment have great effect on the strength of the metal embryo material.


Experimental example 2


In order to test the processing performance of the metal embryo material, turning test was performed for the metal embryo material. The processing performance was determined by detecting the structural integrity and the surface roughness of the turned metal material. In the turning test, the workpiece rotation was 1000 r/min, 2000 r/min and 3000 r/min, the blade feed rate was 0.05 mm/r, the cutting depth was 0.2 mm. The test result of the surface roughness (Ra/μm) is illustrated in FIG. 3.


It is found that the metal embryo material can maintain its structural integrity under the rotations of 1000 r/min, 2000 r/min and 3000 r/min during a turning test, resulting in no breaking phenomenon. It is found from data of FIG. 2 that by comparing the surface roughnesses under different rotations, the surface roughness of the metal material increases when the rotation is low and decreases when the rotation increases. Comparison of examples 1 and 7-10 shows that the addition of zirconium to the metal embryo material helps to improve the cutting processing performance, and the surface roughness of the turned material is low. However, the insufficient or excessive addition amount has influence on the processing performance of the material. Comparison of examples 1 and 11-13 shows that the ultrasonic treatment helps to improve the processing performance of the material.


Test was also performed for wear resistance, fouling resistance and corrosion resistance of the screw pump rotor in the present disclosure.


Experimental example 3


Reference was made to GB/T12444-2006 for the test of wear resistance of the screw pump rotor, with alloy wear resistance represented by friction coefficient and volume wear amount. The test result is shown in FIG. 4.


The data of FIG. 4 shows a friction coefficient of the screw pump rotor under a load of 100N. The data shows that the screw pump rotor prepared with the process of the present disclosure has an excellent wear resistance and a long service life. The addition of chromium and nickel to the metal embryo material helps to improve the wear resistance of the rotor, and zirconium with the addition mass percentage of 0.08-0.15% to the metal embryo material helps to significantly reduce the surface roughness of the metal embryo material, thereby increasing the wear resistance of the screw pump rotor. Further, the addition of silicon carbide to the saponified oil can further increase the wear resistance of the rotor.


Experimental example 4


The fouling resistance of the screw pump rotor was tested in the following method: the fouling resistance was evaluated according to a weight increase (fouling amount) after the screw pump rotor with a particular mass was soaked in hard water of 50±5° C. for 30 d, wherein in hard water, [Ca2+]=600±10 mg/L, [HCO3]=600±10 mg/L, and [SO42−]=300±10 mg/L. The test result is shown in FIG. 5.


As shown in FIG. 5, the screw pump rotor prepared by the process of the present disclosure has an excellent fouling resistance with its minimum fouling amount after being soaked in hard water of 50° C.±5° C. for 30 d being 0.12 g. It also shows that the addition of silicon carbide to the saponified oil has significant effect on the fouling resistance of the rotor. Further, the addition of zirconium to the metal embryo material also helps to improve the fouling resistance of the rotor.


Experimental example 5


The corrosion resistance of the screw pump rotor was tested in the following method: soaking the screw pump rotor in hard waters with pH=5.5 and 8 respectively to evaluate the corrosion resistance of the screw pump rotor by observing the time that the visible corrosion trace appears on the screw pump rotor, with its test result shown in FIG. 6.


As shown in FIG. 6, the screw pump rotor has a much better corrosion resistance under an alkali condition than under an acid condition. It also shows that the addition of chromium and nickel to the metal embryo material may greatly improve the corrosion resistance of the screw pump rotor, the addition weight ratio of chromium to nickel also helps to increase the corrosion resistance of the screw pump rotor, and the addition of nano-silicon carbide to the saponified oil during an ultrasonic treatment and lubrication treatment also helps to increase the corrosion resistance of the screw pump rotor.
