Den foreliggende opfindelse angår en undertryksstøbeovn, der er tæt indkapslet og varmeisoleret, og som er forsynet med elektriske varmeelementer samt med en påfyldningsåbning og et nedadrettet aftapningsrør, som hver er forsynet med 5 tætninger, hvilken undertryksstøbeovn er indrettet til smeltning af metal og til udstøbning af det smeltede metal under tryk under samtidig opretholdelse af et undertryk i støbeovnens rum oven over det smeltede metal.The present invention relates to a negative pressure casting furnace which is tightly encapsulated and heat-insulated and which is provided with electric heating elements as well as with a filling opening and a downwardly directed drain pipe, each of which is provided with 5 seals, which negative pressure casting furnace is arranged for melting metal and casting the molten metal under pressure while maintaining a negative pressure in the furnace space above the molten metal.
Ved støbeovne af den nævnte art, hvor fast metal føres ind 10 gennem påfyldningsåbningen og smeltes i støbeovnen ved hjælp af elektriske varmeelementer, og hvor det smeltede metal ud-støbes under tryk i en form tilknyttet aftapningsrøret, har man ikke tidligere kunnet indføre fast metal i støbeovnen samtidig med aftapningen af smeltet metal gennem aftapnings-15 røret på grund af det nævnte undertryk, som ønskes opretholdt i støbeovnen oven over det smeltede metal til fra metallet at fjerne uønskede gasser eller eventuelt luft, der er bragt ind i smelten via det indførte faste metal, som skal smeltes.In casting furnaces of the type mentioned, where solid metal is introduced through the filling opening and melted in the casting furnace by means of electric heating elements, and where the molten metal is cast under pressure in a mold connected to the tapping pipe, it has not previously been possible to introduce solid metal into the furnace simultaneously with the draining of molten metal through the drain pipe due to said negative pressure which is desired to be maintained in the furnace above the molten metal to remove from the metal undesirable gases or any air introduced into the melt via the introduced solid metal to be melted.
Almindeligvis er det nævnte undertryk hidtil frembragt ved 20 hjælp af store vakuumpumper, og undertrykket har måttet genopbygges for hver gang påfyldningsåbningen åbnes for indføring af en ny forsyning fast metal, scan skal smeltes. Brugen af den nævnte store vakuumpumpe samt stadig genoprettelse af nævnte undertryk i støbeovnen er økonomisk og urationel 25 i forbindelse med smeltning og udstøbning af en del metaller, som f.eks. metaller med lavt smeltepunkt, og i tilfælde, hvor det smeltede metal skal udstøbes under tryk i forme forbundet direkte med aftapningsrøret for fremstilling af f.eks. lejeforinger og andre genstande til brug i industrien eller 30 smykkegenstande. Metallet eller metallegeringen, som skal bruges til udstøbningen, vælges naturligvis i afhængighed af de genstande, som skal fremstilles.Generally, the said negative pressure has hitherto been generated by means of large vacuum pumps, and the negative pressure has had to be rebuilt each time the filling opening is opened for the introduction of a new supply of solid metal, the scan must be melted. The use of said large vacuum pump as well as still restoration of said negative pressure in the casting furnace is economical and irrational in connection with melting and casting of a number of metals, such as e.g. low melting point metals, and in cases where the molten metal is to be cast under pressure in molds connected directly to the drain pipe for the manufacture of e.g. bearing liners and other articles for industrial use or 30 jewelery. The metal or metal alloy to be used for the casting is, of course, selected depending on the objects to be manufactured.
Det er selvsagt muligt at bygge sluser i forbindelse med påfyldningsåbningen for at kunne opretholde undertrykket i 35 støbeovnen under indføring af fast metal i denne, men man vil 2 142156 få indført uønsket luft, som befinder sig i slusekammeret sammen med det faste metal, hvilken luft derefter må fjernes ved hjælp af den nævnte vakuumpumpe.Desuden er en sådan sluseanordning i påfyldningsåbningen til ovnen relativt 5 kompliceret og kostbar.It is of course possible to build locks in connection with the filling opening in order to be able to maintain the negative pressure in the casting furnace during the introduction of solid metal therein, but one will introduce unwanted air which is in the sluice chamber together with the solid metal, which air then must be removed by means of the said vacuum pump. In addition, such a sluice device in the filling opening to the furnace is relatively complicated and expensive.
Formålet med den foreliggende opfindelse er at afhjælpe ovennævnte ulemper og tilvejebringe en støbeovn hvori det herskende undertryk forbliver konstant under volumenvariationer, og hvorfra eventuelle uønskede gasser fjernes på 10 energibesparende måde under opretholdelse af en kontrolleret atmosfære over smeltebadet.The object of the present invention is to remedy the above-mentioned disadvantages and to provide a casting furnace in which the prevailing negative pressure remains constant during volume variations, and from which any undesired gases are removed in an energy-saving manner while maintaining a controlled atmosphere over the molten bath.
Dette opnås ifølge opfindelsen ved det i den kendetegnende del af krav 1 angivne. Ved væskens fordampning og fortætning opretholdes en konstant gastilstand over metalsmelten 15 til beskyttelse af denne mod uønskede gasforureninger.This is achieved according to the invention by what is stated in the characterizing part of claim 1. During the evaporation and densification of the liquid, a constant gas state is maintained above the metal melt 15 to protect it against unwanted gas contaminants.
Ved fortætning fjernes uønskede gasser på energibesparende måde. Den konstante gastilstand opretholder undertrykket over smelten ved volumenvariationer i denne under ovnens påfyldning og/eller aftapning, der derved også kan ske sam-20 tidigt.Densification removes unwanted gases in an energy-saving way. The constant gas state maintains the negative pressure over the melt by volume variations in it during the filling and / or draining of the furnace, which can thereby also take place simultaneously.
Ved det i krav 2 angivne opnås sikkerhed for, at væskelåsen ved indløbsrøret indeholder flydende metal under ovnens drift, således at nedsmeltning af fast metal samt udstrømning af det smeltede sker kontinuerligt fra væskelåsen uden 25 pludselige trykvariationer i ovnatmosfæren.As stated in claim 2, it is ensured that the liquid lock at the inlet pipe contains liquid metal during operation of the furnace, so that solid metal melting and outflow of the molten takes place continuously from the liquid lock without sudden pressure variations in the furnace atmosphere.
Opfindelsen forklares i det følgende nærmere med henvisning til en på tegningen skematisk vist udførelsesform for en støbeovn ifølge opfindelsen.The invention is explained in more detail below with reference to an embodiment of a casting furnace according to the invention schematically shown in the drawing.
Tegningen viser en indkapslet støbeovn 1, hvor indføringen 30 af materialet til ovnrummet sker gennem et indføringsrør 2 forsynet med et tætningsarrangement i form af samvirkende rør, som danner en væskelås 3, hvor væskesøjlen udgøres af U21B6 3 flydende metal 4. Ved støbeovnens bund er der anbragt et aftapningsrør 5 med en betjenbar afspærringsventil 6 ved aftapningsrørets nedre ombøjede og opadrettede ende. Aftapning af flydende metal kan ske ved tyngdens tryk, idet 5 det flydende metal presses ind i en lukket form 7 ved enden af aftapningsrøret 5. Støbeformen er forsynet med små lufthuller ved sin øvre kant 8 og en indføringsåbning for flydende metal under tryk er anbragt ved formens underkant 9.The drawing shows an encapsulated casting furnace 1, where the introduction 30 of the material into the kiln space takes place through an insertion pipe 2 provided with a sealing arrangement in the form of cooperating pipes, which form a liquid lock 3, where the liquid column is made of U21B6 3 liquid metal 4. arranged a drain pipe 5 with an operable shut-off valve 6 at the lower bent and upwardly directed end of the drain pipe. Draining of liquid metal can take place by the pressure of gravity, the liquid metal being pressed into a closed mold 7 at the end of the draining tube 5. The mold is provided with small air holes at its upper edge 8 and an inlet opening for liquid metal under pressure is arranged at lower edge of the mold 9.
Det frie rum 10 oven over smeltebadet 11' i ovnrummet 11 10 er via et rør fra kammerets øverste parti forbundet til en beholder 12 med væske 13, som ved et bestemt undertryk fordamper, således at gas eller damp 14, som fylder nævnte forbindelsesrør og rummet oven over smeltebadet 11, beskytter metallet i smeltebadet og holder undertrykket i rummet 15 10 konstant uafhængigt af volumenvariationer af smelteba det i ovnkammeret 11 under henholdsvis påfyldning og aftapning fra ovnen.The free space 10 above the molten bath 11 'in the furnace space 11 10 is connected via a pipe from the upper part of the chamber to a container 12 with liquid 13, which at a certain negative pressure evaporates, so that gas or steam 14, which fills said connecting pipe and the space above the molten bath 11, protects the metal in the molten bath and keeps the negative pressure in the space 15 constant constant independent of volume variations of the molten bath in the furnace chamber 11 during filling and draining from the furnace, respectively.
For at forhindre den omgivende luft i at trænge ind i ovnkammeret 11 gennem indføringsrøret 2, er højden på et væske-20 søjlerør 3' af væskelåsen 3 og dermed den flydende metalsøjle 4 afpasset således, at trykket af denne metalsøjle er mindst lig med eller større end undertrykket i rummet 10 oven over metalsmelten 11'.In order to prevent the ambient air from penetrating the furnace chamber 11 through the insertion pipe 2, the height of a liquid column column 3 'of the liquid lock 3 and thus the liquid metal column 4 is adjusted so that the pressure of this metal column is at least equal to or greater than the negative pressure in the space 10 above the metal melt 11 '.
Ved nævnte undertryk dvs. ved fortynding af gasatmosfæren 25 10, skal væsken 13 i beholderen 12, som er forbundet med den øvre del af ovnkammeret 11, begynde at danne damp, som fylder rummet 10 over smeltebadet 11'. Dette forekommer ved aftapning af flydende metal gennem aftapningsrøret 5 ind i formen 7.At said negative pressure, ie. upon dilution of the gas atmosphere 10 10, the liquid 13 in the container 12, which is connected to the upper part of the furnace chamber 11, must begin to form steam, which fills the space 10 above the molten bath 11 '. This occurs by draining liquid metal through the drain pipe 5 into the mold 7.
30 Ved trykstigning i dampatmosfæren i rummet 10 ved f.eks. tilførsel af faste metalmaterialer gennem påfyldningsrøret 2, hvori materialerne smelter på grund af et omkring påfyldningsrøret 2 anbragt elektrisk varmeelement 16, vilWhen the pressure rises in the steam atmosphere in the room 10 at e.g. supply of solid metal materials through the filling tube 2, in which the materials melt due to an electric heating element 16 arranged around the filling tube 2, will

4 dampen 14 strømme tilbage til beholderen 12 og kondensere til væske 13 i denne, fordi beholderen 12 er således anbragt, at den holdes på en lavere temperatur i støbeovnens kammer 11.4, the steam 14 flows back to the container 12 and condenses to liquid 13 therein, because the container 12 is arranged so as to be kept at a lower temperature in the chamber 11 of the furnace.
5 Højden på smelteovnens aftapningsrør 5 er afpasset således, at metalsøjlen i røret samt i smeltebadet 11' får en samlet højde, som foruden at kompensere undertrykket i rummet 10 oven over metalsmelten 11' giver det ønskede udstøbnings-tryk i støbeformen 7.The height of the melting pipe 5 of the melting furnace is adjusted so that the metal column in the pipe and in the melting bath 11 'has a total height which, in addition to compensating for the negative pressure in the space 10 above the metal melt 11', gives the desired casting pressure in the mold 7.
10 Den eventuelt indkapslede gasmængde, som påfyldningsmetallet, der udgøres af metalsøjlen 4, kan føre med sig ind i ovnen, og som ikke fortsættes, ledes til væsketanken 12 og kan pumpes ud af systemet ved hjælp af en lille vakuumpumpe 15, som er tilsluttet ovnanlægget.Any amount of gas encapsulated which the filler metal constituted by the metal column 4 can carry with it into the furnace and which is not continued is led to the liquid tank 12 and can be pumped out of the system by means of a small vacuum pump 15 which is connected to the furnace system. .
15 støbeovnen 1 og væskelåsen 3 er opvarmet ved hjælp af elektriske varmeelementer, der er anbragt omkring påfyldningsrøret 2, og aftapningsrøret 5 er opvarmet ved hjælp af elektriske varmeelementer 161 selve smelteovnen 1 samt aftapningsrøret 5 er forsynet med varmeisolation 17.15 the casting furnace 1 and the liquid lock 3 are heated by means of electric heating elements arranged around the filling pipe 2, and the tapping pipe 5 is heated by means of electric heating elements 161 the melting furnace 1 itself and the tapping pipe 5 are provided with thermal insulation 17.
20 En støbeovn af ovennævnte type kan bygges for forskellige metaller ved under konstruktionen at tage hensyn til det anvendte metals egenvægt, det ønskede undertryk i ovnkammeret, udstøbningstrykket og kogepunktet samt kemiske egenskaber for beholderens 12 væske 13, hvis damp er beregnet 25 til at beskytte smeltebadet 11'.A casting furnace of the above type can be built for different metals by taking into account during construction the specific gravity of the metal used, the desired negative pressure in the furnace chamber, the casting pressure and the boiling point as well as chemical properties of the container 12 liquid 13 whose steam is intended to protect the molten bath. 11 '.
Ved at udføre væskelåsens udløbsrør 3' teleskopisk forlængeligt, kan dette indstilles i forhold til de forskellige metallers egenvægt for at danne den ønskede søjlehøjde og dermed det ønskede undertryk i rummet 10. Ved en tilsvaren- 30 cle teleskopisk forlængelighed at endedelen af aftapningsrøret 5, kan også udstøbningstrykket reguleres.By making the liquid lock outlet pipe 3 'telescopically extendable, this can be adjusted in relation to the specific gravity of the various metals to form the desired column height and thus the desired negative pressure in the space 10. With a corresponding telescopic extendability that the end part of the drain pipe 5 can be also the casting pressure is regulated.
