Resistance brazing method for shield machine cutter
This application claims priority from CN application No. 202010030585.7 filed on 13 January 2020, the contents of which are to be taken as incorporated herein by this reference.
Technical Field The present invention relates to the technical field of welding, in particular to a resistance brazing method for a shield machine cutter.
Background Art In the field of underground engineering, tunnel construction with a shield tunnelling machine (shield machine) has the characteristics of a high level of automation, manpower saving, a fast construction speed, one-time tunnel formation, weatherproofing, controllable ground settlement during excavation, reduction of influence on ground buildings and no influence on ground traffic during underwater excavation, etc., and thus the application of shield construction is becoming increasingly wider. Under the condition of a long tunnel line and a deep buried depth, it is more economical and reasonable to use a shield machine for construction. A shield cutterhead and cutter are the parts that directly contact with cuttings and rocks, and are easily damaged. A shield cutter and a substrate are mainly connected by means of brazing, and the brazing quality directly affects the quality of a shield alloy cutter, as well as the cutting effect and tunnelling speed of the shield machine. This requires a high welding quality of the shield alloy cutter.
There are two main brazing processes for traditional alloy cutter a shield machine. In the first brazing process, a medium-frequency induction brazing process is used for direct brazing, wherein a cutter body and a cemented carbide are heated by medium-frequency induction, a sheet silver-based brazing filler metal is brought to the melting temperature by heat conduction and then the brazing is performed. Due to the skin effect of induction heating, the heating is uneven, and the temperature of the cemented carbide and the matrix in the middle area of a cemented carbide cutter for a shield tunnelling heading machine is low. In order to ensure the brazing quality, only long-time heating can be performed, causing part of the cemented carbide is overheated. However, the cemented carbide has a low linear expansion coefficient, a high hardness, a high brittleness and a small thermal conductivity, and thus a long-time and high-temperature heating can easily cause the breaking and cracking of the cemented carbide ball teeth and the shedding of the cemented carbide, causing the damage of the cutter and thus an impossibility of tunnelling. In the second brazing process, a composite process of medium frequency brazing and flame brazing is used, wherein the cutter body and cemented carbide are heated by medium frequency induction. However, due to the skin effect of induction heating, the heating is uneven, and the temperature of the cemented carbide and the matrix in the middle area of the cemented carbide cutter for the shield tunnelling heading machine is low, and the flame brazing is mainly used to heat the area with a low temperature. This brazing process is complex and difficult to realise automatic production.
The difficulty of a shield cutter brazing project lies in realizing a reliable and efficient brazing connection between a steel matrix and a cemented carbide cutter bit. At present, the induction heating brazing is widely used in the industry. Due to the skin effect of induction heating, the temperature difference between the inside and outside of a workpiece is large, which brings two fatal problems: 1) due to the inconsistent linear expansion in the heating process, the cutter has a larger internal stress; and 2) heating and heat transfer for a long time are necessary, which leads to external overheating and brazing filler metal turbulence. On the other hand, they lead to severe cutter oxidation.
In view of the above, the present invention has been proposed.
Summary The present invention relates to a resistance brazing method for a shield machine cutter, comprising the steps of: performing a resistance brazing on an assembly assembled from a cutter body, an alloy and a silver-based brazing filler metal, wherein an electrode material for the resistance brazing comprises a graphite felt.
The present invention departs from the traditional method for brazing of a carbide cutter of a shield machine wherein a medium-frequency brazing apparatus is used and the cutter body and cemented carbide are heated in the air as well as the sheet silver-based brazing filler metal is heated to a melting temperature for direct brazing. In addition, the present invention intends to solve the problems that some cemented carbide in the welding seam after brazing is overheated and while being heated at a high temperature for a long time, the cemented carbide ball teeth are prone to break, crack, and be oxidised to include slag, due to a low coefficient of linear expansion, high hardness, high brittleness and low thermal conductivity of the cemented carbide, causing the cemented carbide shedding. Furthermore, the present method can improve the strength and efficiency of brazing.
Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: according to the present invention, resistance brazing is applied to shield machine brazing, and a graphite felt is used as an electrode, such that the shield machine cutter can be better brazed, and the welding strength of the cutter of and the efficiency of the shield machine can be further improved.

Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of the assembly position relationship among the cutter body, silver-based brazing filler metal and alloy of the present invention.
Detailed Description of Embodiments The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to embodiments below; however, it would be understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments below are only used to illustrate the present invention, and should not be considered as limiting the scope of the present invention. If the specific conditions are not indicated in the embodiments, the conventional conditions or the conditions suggested by the manufacturer shall be followed. Any reagents or instruments used, unless the manufacture stated, are conventional products that can be obtained by market purchase.
The present invention relates to a resistance brazing method for a shield machine cutter, comprising the steps of: performing a resistance brazing to an assembly assembled from a cutter body, an alloy and a silver-based brazing filler metal, wherein an electrode material for the resistance brazing comprises a graphite felt.
The basic principle of resistance brazing relates to a high current, a low voltage and an electrode with a high resistance circuit, that is, a high current generates high resistance heat through a carbon electrode, which is directly conducted to a brazing joint, such that the brazing filler metal in the joint is melted after reaching the melting temperature. During performing the brazing, a certain pressure should be applied to the brazing site, and under the action of the pressure, a firm brazing joint is formed after solidification. This method has the advantages of rapid heating, a high productivity, a small heat influence on the surrounding due to concentrated heating, a simple process, good labour conditions and an easy automation of a welding process, etc.
The resistance brazing apparatus of the present invention is a traditional resistance brazing apparatus which is provided with a sealed shell, with one end being provided with an air inlet channel, and the other end being provided with an air outlet channel and an oxygen partial pressure test channel. The upper and lower electrodes of the resistance brazing apparatus are graphite felts.
The shield cutter has a curved face or a special-shaped surface, the graphite electrode is in a hard contact with the shield cutter during resistance brazing, and cracks will occur on the graphite electrode under the action of a pressure; the graphite felt used in the present invention is softer, and has the characteristics of a good conductivity and plasticity, a high temperature resistance (resistance to temperatures above 700°C), etc.
The assembly method of the assembly in the present invention is specifically as follows: arranging a silver-based brazing filler metal above a cutter body, and arranging an alloy above the silver-based brazing filler metal. The schematic diagram of their positional relationship is shown in Fig. 1.
Preferably, during the resistance brazing process, an oxygen content is 0.01-20 ppm, and a pressure is 5-40 kN.
According to the present invention, the air inlet channel is opened at the beginning of brazing, the oxygen content of an oxygen partial pressure meter is controlled to be 0.01-20 ppm, and then a power supply is turned on for pressurization with a pressure of 5-40 kN. If the oxygen partial pressure is too high, an oxide film that is not easy to move will be produced on the surface of the base metal, which will prevent the brazing filler metal from wetting the base metal. Therefore, by controlling the oxygen content of the oxygen partial pressure meter and the pressure, the resistance brazing can be better completed and the welding strength can be improved.
Preferably, the alloy is a cemented carbide and/or a PDC composite sheet (polycrystalline diamond compact, PDC for short).
The alloy of the invention can be a traditional cemented carbide or a PDC composite sheet. The PDC composite sheet is preferred. The PDC composite sheet is a new functional material, which is made by sintering a diamond micro-powder and a cemented carbide substrate under ultra-high pressure and high temperature conditions. The PDC composite sheet not only has the high hardness, high wear resistance and thermal conductivity of diamond, but also has the strength and impact toughness of the cemented carbide, and thus is an ideal material for manufacturing cutters, drilling bits and other wear-resistant tools.
Preferably, the silver-based brazing filler metal is a sheet silver-based brazing filler metal; and preferably, the sheet silver-based brazing filler metal comprises BAg50Cu2OZn28Ni2 and/orBAg49Cul6Zn23Ni4.5Mn7.5.

Preferably, the silver-based brazing filler metal is a composite brazing filler metal sheet; and preferably, the composite brazing filler metal sheet comprises 50%-60% of an intermediate layer and 20%-25% of each of alloy layers on either side thereof by mass percentage; wherein the intermediate layer of the composite brazing filler metal sheet is an ZnCuAgMn alloy, and the alloy layers on either side thereof are an AgCuLi alloy, respectively; preferably, the mass percentages of Zn, Cu, Ag and Mn in the ZnCuAgMn alloy are 50%-60%,l0%-15%,15%-25% and 0.01%-15%, respectively; more preferably, the ZnCuAgMn alloy is Zn57Cul4Agl5Mnl4; preferably, the mass percentages of Ag, Cu and Li in the AgCuLi alloy are 65.7%-75%,24.99%-34% and 0.01%-0.3%, respectively; preferably, the cutter body is sprayed with a layer of nickel or a nickel-cobalt alloy with a thickness of 0.001-0.1 mm at the location where the alloy is arranged. More preferably, the AgCuLi alloy is Ag72Cu27.8LiO.2.

In one embodiment, the alloy is a PDC composite sheet and the brazing filler metal is a composite brazing filler metal sheet. If the cemented carbide is directly replaced with the PDC composite sheet, the wear resistance will be greatly improved, but the diamond begins to suffer different degrees of damage at a temperature above 700°C, as shown by: surface graphitization, and appearance of cracks or fragmentations etc., in the particles, which leads to reductions in performances such as cuttings, impact and wear resistance. Due to the strength requirement, the commonly used brazing filler metals for the shield cutter are BAg50Cu2OZn28Ni2 (a melting temperature of 660°C-705°C) and BAg49Cul6Zn23Ni4.5Mn7.5 (a melting temperature of 680°C-705°C), and the brazing temperature is about 750°C, causing the graphitization of the diamond in the PDC composite sheet. In the present invention , the melting point of the inner layer of the composite brazing filler metal sheet used is slightly lower than that of the outer layer, such that the strength of the welded point can be further improved.
