  • Patent number: 12103092
    Abstract: A device for controlling deformation of a large-scale crankshaft comprising a crankshaft holder that is arranged for fixing the crankshaft so that the crankshaft is aligned with an axis; a regulatory bracket that is arranged on the crankshaft holder at a position corresponding to the crankshaft; and a high-energy acoustic beam transducer that is arranged on the bracket and is provided with an end part coupled with the crankshaft. The crankshaft is fixed through the crankshaft holder, high-energy ultrasonic waves are injected into the crankshaft by the transducer, mass points in the crankshaft are driven to vibrate along the acoustic beam direction, and machining residual stress of the crankshaft is removed through the high-energy acoustic beam to realize the regulation and control of the residual stress in the material in the specific direction, so that machining precision of the crankshaft is ensured and machining deformation of the crankshaft is reduced.

  • Patent number: 11814714
    Abstract: A device for reducing and homogenizing residual stress of a metal frame including a substrate, a frame fixing device and ultrasonic vibrators. A groove with an upward opening is provided in the middle of the substrate, and a shape enclosed by vertical side walls of the groove matches a shape of an outer frame of a metal frame to be processed. A plurality of through holes that are horizontally diverged are arranged around the side walls of the groove, and the through holes are vertically intersected with the groove. The ultrasonic vibrators are provided on the substrate and front ends of the ultrasonic vibrators extend into respective through holes to abut against the metal frame in the groove. The frame fixing device is also arranged in the groove where the metal frame is located, after the metal frame to be processed is placed in the groove.

  • Patent number: 11708619
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for reducing and homogenizing residual stress of a component, which comprises: detecting stress value(s) of regulation portion(s) of the component; placing the component in a container containing a fluid medium so as to immerse the component in the fluid medium; emitting, by an acoustic wave generator, an elastic wave to the fluid medium in a manner of emitting towards the regulation portion(s) of the component, and determining an emitting period of time and a frequency of the elastic wave based on the stress value(s); returning to the step S1 when the emitting period of time has elapsed, until the stress value(s) is stable. The method and the device solve the problems that it is difficult to reduce and homogenize the residual stress on high-precision machined components, complex structural components, thin-walled structural components, and low-stiffness components.
