Abstract

The present invention relates to the technical field of extruding, rolling and drawing metal wire or rod with assistance of a combined static magnetic field, characterized by providing, in a moving direction of a metal wire or rod, a gradient static magnetic field generated by a combination of a permanent magnet and a steady electromagnet; and after a raw material for rolling the metal wire or rod is processed by the gradient static magnetic field, performing rolling extrusion and pulling on the material. For multiple passes of rolling extrusion and pulling, the static magnetic field processing is performed before each pass of rolling.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A method of preparing metal wires or rods with assistance of a static magnetic field, comprising:
loading a blank in the form of a metal wire or rod into a conveying roller track to be processed by multiple stages of rolling, extruding or drawing along a travel direction of the blank;
subjecting the blank to an effect of a static magnetic field before being processed by each of the multiple stages of rolling, extruding or drawing;
wherein in the conveying roller track a longitudinal center line of the blank is kept in line with the travel direction of the blank;
wherein before a first stage of rolling, extruding or drawing, the blank is subject to magnetic treatment by a gradient static magnetic field formed by three groups of permanent magnets and a steady electromagnet that are disposed in parallel along the travel direction of the blank on the conveying roller track; and
wherein a magnetic induction intensity of the three groups of permanent magnets increases from group to group along the travel direction of the blank.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the magnetic induction intensity of a first group of the three groups of permanent magnets is 0.01-0.30 T, and a width of the first group the three groups of permanent magnets is 0.1-1.0 m in the travel direction of the blank; the magnetic induction intensity of a second group of the three groups of permanent magnets is 0.31-0.60 T, and a width of the second group of the three groups of permanent magnets is 0.1-1.0 m in the travel direction of the blank; the magnetic induction intensity of a third group of the three groups of permanent magnets is 0.61-0.99 T, and a width of the third group of the three groups of permanent magnets in the travel direction of the blank is 0.1-1.0 m; the steady electromagnet is an annular DC superconducting magnet, the magnetic induction intensity thereof is 1.01-3.00 T and a width thereof in the travel direction of the blank is 0.1-1.0 m.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein before a second stage of rolling, extruding or drawing, the blank is subject to magnetic treatment by a gradient static magnetic field formed by a fourth group of permanent magnets and an electromagnet; the magnetic induction intensity of the fourth group of permanent magnets is 0.51-0.99 T, and a width of the fourth group of permanent magnets in the travel direction of the blank is 0.5-1.0 m; the electromagnet configured to be used for the second stage is an annular DC superconducting magnet, the magnetic induction intensity thereof is 1.01-3.00 T and a width thereof in the travel direction of the blank is 0.1-1.0 m.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein after a second stage of rolling, extruding or drawing, the blank is subject to magnetic treatment by a gradient static magnetic field formed by a fifth group of permanent magnets; the magnetic induction intensity of the fifth group of permanent magnets is 0.31-0.75 T, and a width of the fin group of permanent magnets in the travel direction of the blank is 0.5-1.0 m.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein when the static magnetic field is generated by the three groups of permanent magnets, the permanent magnets are U-shaped magnets or circular magnets; for the U-shaped magnets, the longitudinal center line of the blank is aligned with a center line of a notch of each U-shaped magnet; and for the circular magnets the longitudinal center line of the blank is aligned with a center of each circular magnet.
