The fracture splitting (FS) method is a bran-new processing technique in the automobile engine connecting rod manufacturing industry, FS is one of three pivotal working procedures, and press speed is one of the key influence factors of FS process. In order to realize parameters of press speed and pull cylinder working pressure, dynamic simulation of hydraulic system has been carried out. Simulation results indicated that press speed of pull cylinder was about 130mm/s, which was between 120mm/s and 150mm/s that was not only good for controlling FS quality, but also not leading irrational design of hydraulic system. The working pressure of pull cylinder was between 10MPa and 14MPa, which was suitable for FS processing. The hydraulic system of FS machine can satisfy the basic requirements of connecting rods FS process. This paper has provided reliable theoretic basis for the design of FS machine for connecting rods.

New Processing

The new processing technique of vacuum evaporative pattern casting (V-EPC) process was explored to fabricate the cast-iron bonded cBN grinding wheels in this paper. The influences of pouring temperature, degree of vacuum, percentage and size of the cBN grits on the microstructures, distribution and thermal damage of cBN grits in the grinding layer, as well as the surface quality of the grinding layer were investigated. The experimental results revealed that thermal damage of the cBN grits and severe damage of nodulizer occurred when the pouring temperature was around 1480°C. The optimized pouring temperature for fabricate the austenite-bainite ductile cast-iron bonded cBN grinding wheels was about 1400°C. The appropriate degree of vacuum was 0.06Mpa. Too high or too low level of degree of vacuum would result in low surface quality of the grinding layer. The uniformity of the distribution of cBN grits in the metal matrix improved with the increase of the percentage and size of the cBN grits.

Interference Fit

Current design procedures for complicated three-dimensional structural components with component interactions may not necessarily result in optimum designs. The wrist pin end design of the connecting rod with an interference fit is governed by the stress singularity in the region where the wrist pin breaks contact with the connecting rod. Similar problems occur in a wide variety of structural components which involve interference fits. For a better understanding of the problems associated with obtaining optimum designs for this important class of structural interaction only the design problems associated with the wrist pin end of the rod are addressed in this study. This paper demonstrates a procedure for designing a functional and minimum weight wrist pin end of an automobile engine connecting rod with an interference fit wrist pin. Current procedures for Finite Element Method (FEM) model generation in complicated three-dimensional components are very time consuming especially in the presence of stress singularities. Furthermore the iterative nature of the design process makes the process of developing an optimum design very expensive. This design procedure uses a generic modeler to generate the FEM model based on the values of the design variables. It uses the NASTRAN finite element program for structural analysis. A stress concentration factor approach is used to obtain realistic stresses in the region of the stress singularity. For optimization, the approximate optimization strategy in the COPES/CONMIN program is used to generate an approximate design surface, determine the design sensitivities for constrained function minimization and obtain the optimum design. This proposed design strategy is fully automated and requires only an initial design to generate the optimum design. It does not require analysis code modifications to compute the design sensitivities and requires very few costly NASTRAN analyses. The connecting rod design problem was solved as an eight design variable problem with five constraints. A weight reduction of nearly 27 percent was achieved over an existing design and required only thirteen NASTRAN analyses. It is felt that this design strategy can be effectively used in an engineering environment to generate optimum designs of complicated three-dimensional components.

Rake-car’s driving system of ore reclaimer originally used crank and connecting rod mechanism as driving mechanism. The driving mechanism got some trouble that parts got severe wear and failure rate of mechanism was high. The hydraulic system is used to drive rake car in view of hydraulic driving system’s advantage. By analysis on existing problem of crank and connecting rod mechanism, the actual working load of equipment is tested and the working situation is analysed. The working situation of the hydraulic system is also analysed by computer simulation. By optimization of the hydraulic system design, the final design is determined. The whole system is actually used. It works well.

The Cross

At engineering practice, the theoretical basis for the cross-over method, used to obtain shear wave arrival time in the downhole method of the wave velocity test by surface forward and backward strike, is that the polarity of P-wave keeps the same, while the polarity of S-wave transforms when the direction of strike inverted. However, the characteristics of signals recorded in tests are often found to conflict with this theoretical basis for the cross-over method, namely, the polarity of the P-wave also transforms under the action of surface forward and backward strike. Therefore, 3D finite element numerical simulations were conducted to study the validity of the theoretical basis for the cross-over method. The results show that both shear and compression waves are observed to be in 180° phase difference between horizontal signal traces, consistent with the direction of excitation generated by reversed impulse. Furthermore, numerical simulation results prove to be reliable by the analytic solution; it shows that the theoretical basis for the cross-over method applied to the downhole wave velocity test is improper. In meanwhile, numerical simulations reveal the factors (inclining excitation, geophone deflection, inclination, and background noise) that may cause the polarity of the P-wave not to reverse under surface forward and backward strike. Then, as to reduce the influence factors, we propose a method for the downhole wave velocity test under surface strike, the time difference of arrival is based between source peak and response peak, and numerical simulation results show that the S-wave velocity by this method is close to the theoretical S-wave velocity of soil.
