Technical Field
The aluminum alloy and the titanium alloy have the characteristics of small density, high strength, good mechanical property, strong corrosion resistance and the like, and are widely applied to aviation parts. There are tens of thousands of assembly holes in a wide-body passenger aircraft, and fasteners need to be installed in the assembly holes for assembly. Stress concentration is easily formed at the edge of the assembling hole, cracks are easily generated due to the stress concentration, the crack propagation rate is increased, the usability of the assembling hole workpiece is reduced due to the existence of the cracks, and the fatigue life of the assembling hole workpiece is shortened.
Along with the increasing use amount of the aluminum alloy, the titanium alloy and the aviation material with the laminated structure in the aviation parts, the improvement of the fatigue performance and the fatigue resistance of the assembly holes of the aluminum alloy, the titanium alloy and the material with the laminated structure and the prolonging of the service life of the extruded workpiece are very important. The cold extrusion strengthening technology for the assembly hole of the extruded workpiece changes the distribution condition of residual stress on the hole wall of the assembly hole by locally strengthening the assembly hole workpiece, thereby improving the fatigue performance of the assembly hole workpiece and prolonging the service life of the assembly hole workpiece. For example, chinese patent application publication No. CN104626726A provides a method for cold extrusion strengthening of a CFRP composite laminated board assembly hole, the method includes: a. providing a bushing capable of being installed in the assembling hole; b. providing a tapered metal core rod and inserting the core rod into the bushing; c. installing the bushing into the assembly hole; d. applying an axial force to the mandrel through an extrusion device so that the bushing is extruded by the maximum diameter part of the mandrel; e. the core rod is removed and the bushing is retained within the assembly bore. The patent application document aims at the assembly hole of the CFRP composite material laminated plate, and the assembly hole adopts a bushing and is matched with a cold extrusion strengthening process, so that the fatigue life of a part can be effectively prolonged, and the service time of an airplane is prolonged. Because the bushing is fastened in the assembling hole, the wear resistance of the connecting structure is increased, and the disassembly of the assembling fastener and the maintenance of the manufactured piece are facilitated. However, in this patent application, a solid extrusion core rod is used to cold-extrude and strengthen the assembly hole of the extruded workpiece.
At present, a slotted bushing and a solid extrusion core rod are widely applied to cold extrusion reinforcement of a workpiece with a hole. However, the slotted bush is used for cold extrusion strengthening of the workpiece with the hole, the extrusion core rod is not directly contacted with the wall of the assembling hole, so that the extrusion amount cannot be completely acted on the wall of the assembling hole, the extrusion amount is acted on the slotted bush, the plastic deformation of the bush is larger, the slotted bush with large deformation cannot be used for cold extrusion strengthening of the hole again, and the cost of the cold extrusion strengthening process of the hole is seriously increased; the solid extrusion core rod is used for directly carrying out cold extrusion strengthening on the assembly hole, hole extrusion strengthening with larger extrusion amount can not be carried out, and the extrusion strengthening range of the assembly hole is limited.
The invention provides a method for cold extrusion strengthening of an assembly hole by using a slotted core rod, and aims to realize repeated use of the slotted core rod, improve extrusion efficiency and increase hole extrusion amount.

Detailed Description
The present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples.
Example 1
Fig. 1 is a schematic view of a process for reinforcing a pilot hole by cold extrusion using a split core rod according to the present invention, and fig. 2 is a perspective view of fig. 1. Referring to fig. 1 and 2: (1) before the assembly hole of the extruded workpiece 2 is subjected to cold extrusion strengthening, the front surface of the slotted core rod 4 penetrates through the auxiliary plate 3 and the assembly hole of the extruded workpiece 2. The auxiliary plate 3 is placed in front of the extruded workpiece 2, and the hole diameter of the auxiliary plate is the same as and coaxial with the assembling hole of the extruded workpiece; the auxiliary plate 3 with the pressed workpiece 2 is placed at the position of the slotted-core-rod guide section 6. Due to the existence of the slit 9 on the slit core rod 4, the position of the slit core rod working ring 5 can be contracted, and the extrusion strengthening of the assembly hole of the extruded workpiece 2 is not carried out.
(2) The supporting rod 1 is inserted into the slotted core rod, the position of the slotted core rod working ring 5 cannot be contracted due to the existence of the supporting rod 1, the diameter of the supporting rod is larger than the diameter of the assembly hole of the extruded workpiece 2, the assembly hole of the extruded workpiece 2 is pulled out at a constant speed along with the slotted core rod 4, and the slotted core rod working ring 5 extrudes the wall of the assembly hole in the process that the slotted core rod 4 inserted into the supporting rod 1 is pulled out of the assembly hole of the extruded workpiece 2, so that the wall of the assembly hole of the extruded workpiece 2 is subjected to plastic deformation, and the strengthening effect is realized.
FIG. 3 is a plan view of a slotted core rod; fig. 4 is a perspective view of the slotted core rod. The adopted core rod is a slotted core rod 4, the end part of the slotted core rod 4 is symmetrically provided with 4 slits along the length direction, the slits are communicated in the radial direction of the slotted core rod, the non-free end of each slit extends towards the inside to be provided with a stop thread hole 8, and the situation that the service life of the core rod is influenced by taking the slotted core rod as a crack is prevented.
On the slotted core rod, the end part provided with the slit is provided with a slotted core rod guide section 6, the cross section of which is isosceles trapezoid, so that a support rod can be conveniently placed into the slotted core rod after being contracted for carrying out extrusion strengthening on the hole. The middle part of the periphery of the slit of the slotting core rod 4 is provided with a working ring 5. After the slit core rod 4 is provided with the slit, the outer diameter of the part of the working ring 5 is larger than the inner diameter of the assembling hole, so the diameter of the part of the working ring 5 needs to be reduced, the core rod can be placed in the hole, the wide slit in the guide section is extruded, the narrow slit of the working ring 5 is closed, and the core rod can be placed in the hole of the extruded workpiece 2.
FIG. 5 is a schematic view of a support rod; fig. 6 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a support rod. Referring to fig. 5 and 6, the tail part of the support rod is provided with a threaded hole 7, and after the slotted core rod is subjected to cold extrusion strengthening, a screw is inserted into the threaded hole 7, so that the support rod can be conveniently taken out.
Example 2
A TC titanium alloy plate with the diameter of a central hole of 12.12mm and the diameter of 60mm multiplied by 10mm is simulated by ABAQUS finite element simulation analysis software by a hole cold extrusion strengthening process with the extrusion amount of 5 percent by using a solid extrusion core rod and a 4 slotted extrusion core rod.
After the cold extrusion strengthening of the assembly hole of the extruded workpiece, residual stress in the radial direction, the tangential direction and the plate thickness direction is generated on the hole wall of the assembly hole, however, the extruded workpiece bears alternating load in the service process, and the tangential residual stress has the largest influence on the service life of the part due to the residual stress in the three directions of the hole wall of the assembly hole. Therefore, in example 2, only the variation of the distance from the wall of the assembled hole to the wall of the hole and the tangential residual stress at different positions after the hole is subjected to extrusion strengthening is analyzed.
Based on the cold extrusion strengthening simulation process of the solid extrusion core rod and the 4-slit extrusion core rod hole, the obtained change of the distance between the extrusion end of the assembly hole of the TC4 titanium alloy plate and the hole wall and the tangential residual stress is shown in FIG. 7; the variation of the distance between the middle layer of the assembly hole and the hole wall and the tangential residual stress is shown in FIG. 8; the variation of the distance of the extrusion end of the assembly hole from the hole wall and the tangential residual stress is shown in fig. 9.
The distance between the three different positions of the TC4 titanium alloy plate assembly hole extrusion end, the middle layer and the extrusion end and the hole wall and the change of the tangential residual stress can be known, along with the gradual increase of the distance from the hole wall, the assembly hole is subjected to cold extrusion strengthening by using a solid extrusion core rod and a 4-slotted extrusion core rod, the tangential residual stress at different positions of the hole wall of the assembly hole presents the same change rule, and the tangential residual stress of the extrusion end is smaller than that of the middle layer and the extrusion end; at the extrusion end of the hole wall of the assembly hole, the maximum residual compressive stress generated on the hole wall after the extrusion strengthening of the solid extrusion core rod is 290MPa, and the depth of a residual compressive stress layer is 4.2 mm. 4, the maximum residual compressive stress generated by the hole wall after extrusion strengthening of the slotted extrusion core rod is 310MPa, the depth of a residual compressive stress layer is 5mm, and the residual stress generated by the hole wall after extrusion strengthening of the slotted extrusion core rod 4 away from the same position of the hole wall is larger than that of a solid extrusion core rod; and at the middle layer and the extrusion end of the hole wall of the assembly hole, the depths of residual compressive stresses generated on the hole wall after the solid extrusion core rod and the 4-slit extrusion core rod are extruded and reinforced are the same, and the residual compressive stresses generated on the hole wall after the 4-slit extrusion core rod is extruded and reinforced are larger than that of the solid extrusion core rod at the same position from the hole wall.
The residual stress field generated by the hole wall after the hole is extruded and reinforced can effectively inhibit the generation of cracks at the hole edge and delay the crack propagation rate, thereby improving the fatigue performance and prolonging the service life of the extruded workpiece. Extruding the TC4 titanium alloy plate by using a solid extrusion core rod and a 4-slotted extrusion core rod, wherein residual compressive stress and residual compressive stress fields generated after cold extrusion strengthening of the 4-slotted extrusion core rod at the extrusion end of the hole wall of the assembly hole are both larger than those of the solid extrusion core rod; the depth of the residual compressive stress layer generated after the extrusion strengthening of the middle layer of the hole wall of the assembly hole, the solid extrusion core rod at the extrusion end and the 4-slit extrusion core rod hole is the same, but the residual compressive stress generated after the extrusion strengthening of the 4-slit extrusion core rod hole at the same position of the hole wall is larger than that of the solid extrusion core rod.
In conclusion, the slotted core rod is used for carrying out cold extrusion strengthening on the assembling hole of the extruded workpiece, so that the residual stress field of the hole wall of the assembling hole of the extruded workpiece can be increased, and the fatigue performance and the service life of the extruded workpiece can be improved.
