Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of rail material, particularly a kind of being suitable at a high speed or rail and the manufacture method thereof used on the quasi high-speed highway.
Background technology
At present, world's railway mainly comprises three types on heavy haul railway, high-speed railway and passenger-cargo mixed fortune railway.For the heavy haul railway rail, (be generally 25t～40t) because the train axle is great, wheel Rail Contact Stresses is big, stressed harshness, usually select for use C content greater than 0.75%, tensile strength more than 1200MPa, carbon element rail or alloy steel rail with full pearlitic structure, have good wear resistance to guarantee rail.For high-speed railway, because it is mainly used in and bears passenger traffic, train axle heavy and light is so require the used for high-speed railway rail to have good anti-fatigue performance usually.For passenger-cargo mixed fortune railway, because it had both born passenger traffic, guarantee the singularity of transportation of cargo again, the rail that requires to select for use should guarantee certain abrasion resistance properties, requires certain fatigue resistance performance again, need find trim point between the two.Select for use at the rail that passenger-cargo mixed fortune railway uses, be generally carbon content 0.70%～0.80%, hot rolling between tensile strength 900MPa～1100MPa or heat-treated rail, the part sharp radius curve can be selected the 1200MPa rail for use, organize generally based on perlite, part comprises micro-ferrite.For high-speed railway and quasi high-speed highway, because the two all requires rail to have certain fatigue resistance performance, so at a high speed and quasi high-speed highway, current widespread use be the U71Mn hot rolled rail of tensile strength 900MPa, its carbon content is between 0.65%-0.76%.
Yet, practical application shows, gently (be generally 11t～14t) because the bullet train axle is heavy, almost not wearing and tearing between wheel track in the actual operation, causing resulting from rail head of rail surface or lateral crackle is difficult to grind off, through between wheel track contact force reciprocating has aggravated the proneness that crack propagation causes rail fracture, the traffic safety that seriously jeopardizes train on the contrary; On the other hand, if improving the wear rate of rail, the method for intensity by simple reduction rail and hardness not only can make the rail top layer produce plastic flow to cause the rail profile size deviation, train can't be advanced along rail, also will shorten its work-ing life owing to rail abrasion is too fast.Therefore, at a high speed and in the quasi high-speed highway, be difficult to seek trim point between the two in wearing and tearing and rolling contact fatigue based on the hot rolled rail of pearlitic structure.
In order to improve at a high speed and the rolling contact fatigue performance of quasi high-speed highway rail, mainly contain two kinds of methods at present.First method is to utilize the steel rail grinding train that rail upper end is regularly ground, but the problem that this method exists is, polishing train expense costliness simultaneously, at a high speed and quasi high-speed highway rate of traffic flow height, does not have sufficient milling time.Another kind method is to improve the wear rate on rail surface, before tired hurt occurs, removes fatigue layer by constantly wearing away between wheel track.The wearing character of rail is arranged by hardness, in order to promote that wearing away the hardness that reduces rail gets final product.Yet, reduce the upper surface that hardness can cause rail merely and behind the operation certain hour, viscous deformation occurs, and incident be full of cracks often takes place and hurt such as peel off, be unfavorable for improving the work-ing life and the Transport Safety of rail equally.
In recent years,, developed a kind ofly, comprised the rail of partial martensite and residual austenite simultaneously based on bainite structure for improving the anti-rolling contact fatigue performance of rail in high speed railway.The patent No. be CN1074058C patent disclosure the good bainite of a kind of weld part associativity series rail and manufacture method thereof.This bainite series rail contains 0.15%～0.40% C, 0.1%～0.2% Si, 0.15～1.10% Mn, the P smaller or equal to 0.035% and S, comprises elements such as Cr, Nb, Mo, V, Ni in addition.
Yet, analyze theoretically, have bainite structure particularly other pearlitic row rail of rail and equality strength level of lower bainite tissue compare, toughness plasticity improves by a relatively large margin, taking advantage aspect the security of operation, but it is not, theoretical unified with practical application at wearing and tearing and rolling contact fatigue aspect of performance.Because bainite structure and performance are by form, distribution and the mode of action decision to each other of ferrite and carbide, distribute in ferrite or along the ferrite crystal boundary as the carbide solid solution, the greatest differences that will cause hardness, and hardness directly determines polishing machine, this has just determined to obtaining the ideal tissue morphology, and the process control and the production technique of rail had extremely strict requirement.In addition, for disclosed bainite series rail among the patent CN1074058C, obtain the ideal bainite structure, except that strict CONTROL PROCESS, also need add a large amount of noble elements, the manufacturing cost that causes rail is far above existing perlite series rail, even excellent property also is difficult to promote the use of in enormous quantities.
Therefore, for bainite rail, if be applied at a high speed or quasi high-speed highway, then because its manufacture process requirement is strict and need to add a large amount of valuable alloys, it is above and make to promote the use of in batches and be restricted that manufacturing cost is equivalent to the twice of existing pearlite steel rail.In addition, whether the fatigue property of bainite rail is better than existing pearlite steel rail also needs further checking.
Therefore, need the perlite series rail that a kind of manufacturing cost is lower and have good wearability and antifatigue hurt performance simultaneously badly, to be suitable at a high speed or the quasi high-speed highway application.
Summary of the invention
The objective of the invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems in the prior art, a kind of rail that is suitable for high speed or quasi high-speed highway use with good rolling contact fatigue performance is provided.

Embodiment
The demand for development rail of high speed and quasi high-speed highway has the excellent comprehensive performance, with security and the longevityization that guarantees high-speed railway.Train is run at high speed along rail, except that the outward appearance that requires rail has high straightness, high geometric accuracy and do not have any defective, also requires rail to have good toughness plasticity and rolling contact fatigue performance.For present stage at a high speed and the rail that uses of quasi high-speed highway, guarantee that it has the long lifetime, need to reduce as far as possible because the wheel track contact friction causes the wearing and tearing on rail surface; Simultaneously, for guaranteeing that the tiny crack that has resulted from the rail surface inwardly can in time ground off before the expansion, also need guarantee certain wear rate, this has just formed and has improved rail work-ing life is the contradiction of cost to improve wear rate, can't fundamentally solve and reduce wearing and tearing and the problem of improving the rolling contact fatigue performance.
Therefore, in the present invention, by reducing the C constituent content in the rail, cooperate the mode of rolling the back controlled chilling, else improve the toughness plasticity and the yield strength of rail simultaneously at the intensity, the durometer level that keep existing rail in high speed railway, raising is formed at the tired microcrack initiation on rail top layer and expands required Energy value, thereby can improve the rolling contact fatigue performance of rail under the same conditions, finally improves the work-ing life and the Transport Safety of rail.
Specifically, the invention provides a kind of being used at a high speed and the rail of quasi high-speed highway, the chemical ingredients that this rail comprises is by weight: 0.40%～0.64% C, 0.10%～1.00% Si, 0.30%～1.50% Mn, be less than and equal 0.025% P, be less than and equal 0.025% S, be less than and equal 0.005% Al, greater than 0 and be less than and equal 0.05% Re, total amount is greater than 0 and at least a smaller or equal among 0.20% V, Cr and the Ti, and the Fe of surplus and unavoidable impurities.Preferably, the chemical ingredients that the rail that is used for high speed and quasi high-speed highway according to the present invention comprises is by weight: 0.45%～0.60%C, 0.15%～0.50%Si, 0.50%～1.20%Mn is less than and equals 0.025%P, is less than to equal 0.025%S, be less than and equal 0.005%Al, greater than 0 and be less than and equal 0.05% rare earth element, total amount is greater than 0 and at least a smaller or equal among 0.20% V, Cr and the Ti, and the Fe of surplus and unavoidable impurities.In the following description, except as otherwise noted, otherwise the content of the material of being mentioned all by weight percentage.
The rail that is used for high speed and quasi high-speed highway according to the present invention at room temperature is organized as the uniform mixing tissue of perlite and 15%～50% ferrite (being preferably perlite and 15%～30% ferrite), elongation after fracture 〉=15%, yield strength (R
El) 〉=550MPa, the fracture toughness property K in the time of-20 ℃
IC〉=40MPam
1/2
Below, illustrate that at first chemical ingredients according to rail of the present invention is limited to the reason in the above-mentioned scope.
C is that to make rail obtain a kind of most important of suitable intensity, hardness and wear resisting property also be the most cheap element.In rail according to the present invention, when C%＜0.40% (wt),, below the rail head of rail tread, be difficult to assemble because the carbide quantity in the tissue is few, reduce polishing machine, cause rail to reduce work-ing life because of rapid wear; Simultaneously, because the reduction of hardness makes rail tread form the plastic flow district, and be easy to produce defective such as overlap, the traffic safety that jeopardizes bullet train.In rail according to the present invention, when C%＞0.64% (wt),, will make rail strength, hardness too high by the subsequent heat treatment operation, expand owing to the crackle that has produced can't in time wear away on the one hand, thereby make the proneness enhancing of rail transverse breakage; On the other hand, the too high wheel wear speed that makes of rail hardness is accelerated the work-ing life of seriously reducing train.In addition, under the same conditions, the raising of rail strength will be followed the reduction of toughness plasticity, can't satisfy security requirement equally.Therefore, in the present invention, C content is limited between 0.40%～0.64%, can satisfy the required rigidity of rail better, simultaneously, makes the wheel track Hardness Match and improves the security that rail uses.Preferably, C content is limited between 0.45%～0.60%.
Si is present in the intensity that improves tissue in ferrite and the austenite with the solid solution form usually as the main adding elements of steel.In rail according to the present invention, when Si% in the rail＜0.10% (wt), solid solution capacity is on the low side will to cause strengthening effect not obvious; When Si%＞1.00% (wt), the toughness plasticity of steel and ductility will be reduced.In addition, the serious lateral performance that reduces steel was unfavorable for the security that rail uses when the Si content in the steel was higher.Therefore, in the present invention, Si content is limited between 0.10%～1.00%, and when 0.15wt%＜Si%＜0.50wt%, effect is remarkable especially.
Mn can form sosoloid with Fe, improves ferrite and austenitic intensity.Simultaneously, Mn is again a carbide forming element, can partly substitute the Fe atom after entering cementite, increases the hardness of carbide, finally increases the hardness of steel.In rail according to the present invention, when Mn% in the rail＜0.50% (wt), strengthening effect is undesirable, only by the solid solution effect performance of steel is improved slightly; When Mn%＞1.20% (wt), the hardness of carbide is too high in the steel, make rail can't obtain the ideal combination of strength and toughness, the more important thing is, because Mn has the effect that pulls solute atoms, the cold stage of control in making the rail process, because rate of cooling is very fast, C atom under the austenitic state can't fully spread owing to the effect of Mn, saturated or the hypersaturated state of final formation, be easy to produce abnormal structures such as bainite and martensite, then both forbid occurring in the perlite series rail.Therefore, in the present invention, Mn content is limited between 0.30%～1.50%, and particularly when 0.50wt%＜Mn%＜1.20wt%, effect is remarkable.
Al easily combines with oxygen in steel, forms Al
2O
3Or other complex oxide, as fail fully to float, will retain in the steel, this inclusion is as the heterogeneous continuity that will destroy matrix mutually when rail uses, under the effect of pulsating stress, form the fatigue cracking source, further expanding to increase the trend of the horizontal brittle failure of rail.Therefore, be to improve the purity of rail, guarantee safe in utilizationly, the content regulation of Al is no more than 0.005%.
The effect of RE (rare earth element) in steel is to promote form modification of nonmetallic inclusion, improves purity of steel simultaneously.In addition, RE reduces the harm of impurity such as S, As to steel performance in addition, improves the fatigue property of rail steel.Yet, when RE%＞0.05%, easily promote thick inclusion to generate the severe exacerbation steel performance.For high speed or quasi high-speed highway rail, improve purity of steel, it is very important to the destruction of steel substrate to reduce non-metallic inclusion.Therefore, in the present invention, the scope of adding RE is defined as and is less than or equal to 0.05%, and when 0.010wt%＜Re%＜0.020wt%, effect is remarkable especially.
In the present invention, the V+Cr+Ti total amount requires≤0.20%, reason is as follows: C is as the main strengthening element of steel, and its content height is the microstructure and property of decision rail directly, with the reduction of C content, ferritic ratio progressively enlarges in the tissue, the perlite ratio reduces, and ferrite is difficult to bear wheel and wears away repeatedly as the soft phase in the steel, even it is by thermal treatment, also very limited to the raising of ferrite matrix intensity.Therefore, need to add and come the reinforced ferrite matrix, thereby when improving polishing machine, improve the toughness plasticity of rail as alloying elements such as V, Cr and/or Ti.Below specify the adding purpose and the scope of above-mentioned three kinds of alloying elements.
V in the steel at room temperature solubleness is very low, usually with steel in C and N form V (C, N), crystal grain thinning improve toughness plasticity when strengthening matrix, be one of strengthening element of using always in the present carbon steel.In rail according to the present invention, when V%＜0.15%, this effect is comparatively obvious; When further raising V content, intensity will further improve and toughness particularly impact property significantly descend, promptly rail is resisted ballistic ability and is weakened, the required high security of this and used for high-speed railway rail is not inconsistent; If V%＜0.01%, because the V limited amount of separating out is difficult to bring into play strengthening effect, so separately during interpolation V, V content is limited to 0.01%～0.15%, particularly when 0.02%≤V%≤0.08%, effect is more remarkable.
Cr and Fe can form continuous solid solution and form multiple carbide with C, also are one of main strengthening elements in the steel.In addition, the evenly distribution of carbide in the steel of Cr improves the polishing machine of steel.Compare with V, the advantage of Cr maximum is an economy.Yet, will bring disadvantageous effect to welding property when Cr content is higher.In the present invention, because the reduction of C content, make that ratio of ferrite enlarges in the steel, need to add the solution strengthening element to improve ferritic intensity, guarantee the polishing machine in the rail use, simultaneously, because high speed or quasi high speed train axle heavy and light wear away limited, therefore, Cr content is limited to 0.02%～0.20%, and particularly when 0.10%≤Cr%≤0.15%, effect is more remarkable.
Austenitic crystal grain when the main effect of Ti in steel is refinement heating, rolling and cooling, final toughness plasticity and the rigidity that increases tissue.In rail according to the present invention, when Ti%＞0.05%, because Ti is strong carbonitride forming element, the TiC of the generation rail hardness that will make on the high side is too high on the one hand; On the other hand, TiC is on the high side will to be gathered enrichment partially and form thick carbide, not only reduce toughness plasticity, also make rail contact surface under impact loading be easy to cracking and cause fracture.In rail according to the present invention, when Ti%＜0.01%, the carbonitride thing limited amount of formation is difficult to play a role, so in the present invention, Ti content is limited to 0.01%～0.05%.
Because high speed or quasi high-speed highway rail strength are lower, solution strengthening, the precipitation strength effect of elements such as required V, Cr and Ti are limited; Simultaneously, because the reduction of carbon content among the present invention, toughness plasticity significantly improves, and only relies on above-mentioned alloying element to improve the polishing machine of rail.Therefore, limit 0＜V+Cr+Ti≤0.20% among the present invention.
Below, be used at a high speed and the manufacture method of the rail of quasi high-speed highway describing in detail according to of the present invention.
According to the present invention, the method for making the rail that is used for high speed and quasi high-speed highway may further comprise the steps:
(1) molten steel is smelted and casting
At first, adopt converter, electric furnace or open hearth that the molten steel that comprises following composition is smelted: 0.40%～0.64%C, 0.10%～1.00%Si, 0.30%～1.50%Mn is less than and equals 0.025% P, is less than to equal 0.025% S, be less than and equal 0.005% Al, greater than 0 and be less than and equal 0.05% Re, total amount is greater than 0 and at least a smaller or equal among 0.20% V, Cr and the Ti, and the Fe of surplus and unavoidable impurities.Then, carry out LF (Ladle Furnace) stove refining (being external refining), vacuum-treat, be square billet or slab postcooling with molten steel casting or directly delivering to the process furnace intensification.
(2) steel rail rolling
The continuously cast bloom that will be warming up to certain temperature (being preferably 1200 ℃～1300 ℃) and be incubated 0.5～2h is sent into milling train, with rolling be the rail of required section.
(3) roll the back controlled chilling
After the finish to gauge, rail remains on the temperature more than 800 ℃ usually, and can make rail obtain different performance by control rail head of rail rate of cooling this moment.For the rail that still has surplus heat after rolling, because the rolling characteristics of milling train, common rail is with a siding track bottom comer and rail head contacts side surfaces roller-way, and the actual rail that uses has only the rail head position.In the present invention, the process of controlled chilling is as follows: at first rail is stood on roller-way, rotate the drive rail by roller-way and enter the thermal treatment unit.Before this, the thermal treatment unit is used to cool off rail head of rail end face and two lateral nozzles to have begun winding-up and has had suitable pressure and flow, is generally the heat-eliminating medium of 2kPa～15KPa under the atmospheric environment.When passing through the nozzle of arranging continuously under the drive of rail at roller-way, rate of cooling with 1 ℃/s～4 ℃/s is evenly cooled off the rail head position of rail, when the infrared temperature means of detection that is positioned at thermal treatment unit top is found out rail head end face skin temperature and is reduced to 350 ℃～550 ℃, cooling stops, and finishes the controlled chilling of rail head of rail.
That in the present invention, quickens that heat-eliminating medium can be in pressurized air, gas-vapor mix and the gas-oil mixture is at least a.Under guidance of the present invention, those skilled in the art can determine the acceleration heat-eliminating medium that adopted according to actual needs.Specifically, adopt pressurized air and gas-vapor mix as the situation of quickening heat-eliminating medium under, can select to determine ratio between the two according to routine.
(4) air cooling is placed
After the rail head of rail temperature reaches termination among the present invention and quickens the cooling temperature scope, rail is placed the air naturally cooling, and carry out subsequent handling and handle.
In addition, in above-mentioned steps (3), employing be online thermal treatment process.Yet,, also can adopt the off-line thermal treatment process for the present invention.Off-line thermal treatment is that rail rolls the first air cooling in back to room temperature, is heated to austenite phase region temperature by induction heating device again, is generally 900 ℃～1100 ℃, again the refrigerative process is quickened at the rail head position.Specifically, after billet rolling being become rail by abovementioned steps, rail is naturally cooled to the temperature that is lower than the austenite phase region, and then rail is reheated technology to austenite phase region or the temperature more than 800 ℃ and take steps (3), can obtain the product among the present invention equally.In the present invention, when becoming rail to be cooled to billet rolling to be lower than the temperature of austenite phase region, rail is heated to 800 ℃～1000 ℃ temperature range with 1 ℃/s～20 ℃/speed of s, the technology of repeating step (3) then, promptly, stop cooling when evenly cooling off rail's end portion to 350 ℃～550 ℃, in air, naturally cool to room temperature thereafter with the rate of cooling of 1 ℃/s～4 ℃/s.Here, it should be noted that, when reheating the rail of naturally cooling to austenite phase region temperature, can adopt different heating rate according to concrete factors such as appointed condition, for example, can rail slowly be heated to the temperature of austenite phase region with 1 ℃/s, also can rail be heated to rapidly the temperature of austenite phase region with 20 ℃/s.
Except the step of rolling the back controlled chilling, basic identical according to the method for the manufacturing rail of the method for manufacturing rail of the present invention and prior art, therefore, identical content is not described in detail at this.In the present invention, after finish to gauge, evenly cool off with the rate of cooling of the 1 ℃/s～4 ℃/s head to rail, the temperature for the treatment of rail's end portion stops cooling when reducing to 350 ℃～550 ℃.Because the selection of process for cooling will determine the performance of the finished product, therefore, in the present invention, employing contains the rail of mentioned component, when 1 ℃/s of rate of cooling less than, can't reach and at a high speed existing or the equal intensity of quasi high-speed highway rail by ferrite in the thinning microstructure and pearlitic grain, the vertical load that the ferrite matrix undercapacity is difficult to bear train in may causing using, made the rail head end face because of plastic flow when producing quick-wearing, size generation deviation, not only reduce the work-ing life of rail, also jeopardize traffic safety simultaneously; On the other hand, when rate of cooling surpassed 4 ℃/s, the rate of diffusion of carbide in steel reduced, and increases the proneness that produces as bainite, martensitic stucture, and then two kinds of tissues are clearly to forbid in the pearlitic rail occurring.In addition, rate of cooling is too high will significantly to improve the intensity of rail, although improved the energy of crack initiation and expansion simultaneously, can't remove by wheel-rail wear for the crackle that has produced simultaneously, be unfavorable for traffic safety equally.
In the present invention, quickening the refrigerative final temperature is 350 ℃～550 ℃, and reason is: adopt the rail that comprises mentioned component to quicken cooling from the austenite phase region, in the time of about 550 ℃ rail surface and surface down at least in the 15mm scope transformation finished; At this moment, the heat that rail head inside has will outwards transmit, and as stopping quickening cooling, may make established thinning microstructure roughening because thermal conduction causes skin temperature to raise, be unfavorable for that the rail head interior tissue finishes transformation under bigger condensate depression, can't give full play to heat treated effect.Be lower than 350 ℃ if quicken cooling temperature, then entered the bainite transformation district, be unfavorable for obtaining stable perlite, ferritic structure, increase the proneness that abnormal structure produces.
Only rail's end portion is quickened cooling in the present invention and the web of the rail and flange of rail position are as follows to the reason of room temperature with natural air cooling: the rail web of the rail is as the linker of head and bottom, bear weight indirectly from train, need certain rigidity, also bear the normal force that train turns to generation simultaneously; The flange of rail directly acts on sleeper, determines the train operation track, and load finally is passed to railway roadbed.For at a high speed and quasi high-speed highway, the train axle is heavy, and (11t～14t) is lower than passenger-cargo mixed transport line road or heavy-haul line, and (25t～40t) and route curve radius are big, and (usually＞1000m), the web of the rail and the flange of rail are subjected to vertical power and normal force limited.In addition, quicken cooling and compare with air cooling, limited to the influence of toughness plasticity index, the security that rail is used does not make significant difference.
Adopt the method for manufacturing rail of the present invention, can obtain the rail head position is the rail of the thin ferrite mixed structure of nodular troostite+(15%～50%), this rail strength reach existing at a high speed or quasi high-speed highway else significantly improved the toughness plasticity and the yield strength of rail simultaneously with the equality strength level of rail, when improving rail top layer crack initiation and expansion energy, improved the ability of rail opposing shock load, finally improve the rolling contact fatigue performance of rail, guarantee railway safety.Simultaneously, need not in process of production the existing installation transformation, production technique is simple, and is easy and simple to handle, flexible.
