摘要: 通过对42CrMo钢转向节锻件宏观结构分析和裂纹区域微观组织分析,结合锻造、淬火工艺的数值模拟,研究了淬火裂纹产生的原因。结果表明,转向节形状复杂,截面变化剧烈,淬火时易在单枝与高耳结合部位产生应力集中,且该处的结构尺寸处于危险敏感尺寸范围内,导致更容易形成横向裂纹。同时金属流线方向与单枝长度方向平行并存在沿金属流线方向的夹杂,导致纵向力学性能低,易产生纵向裂纹。

Abstract: Cause of quenching cracks of the 42CrMo steering knuckle forging was studied by analyzing microstructure of the the forging shape and crack area, and combined with the numerical simulation of the quenching and forging stages. The results show that the shape of the steering knuckle is complex, and the cross-section changes drastically, so it is easy to produce stress concentration during quenching at the connection between the fork and the flange during quenching, and the fillet size at this place is within the dangerous size range, resulting in easier to form transverse cracks. In addition, the direction of the metal streamline is parallel to the length direction of the single branch, and there are inclusions along the direction of the metal streamline, resulting in low longitudinal mechanical properties and prone to longitudinal cracks.

Key words: 42CrMo steel, steering knuckle, quenching crack, metal streamline, numerical simulation
