Description
Niederfrequenzofen zum Schmelzen von Magnesium und Magnesiumlegierungen. Das Schmelzen von Magnesium in Nieder frequenzöfen bereitete bisher grosse Schwie rigkeiten, weil die meist gebogen ausgebildete Ofenrinne sich schnell zusetzte. Das Zusetzen der Rinne hat folgende Ursachen:
Magnesiumoxyd, Abdecksalze oder Mi schungen von beiden setzen sich an das kera mische Futter der Rinne an und haften dort derart fest, dass der Rinnenquerschnitt nur mit Hilfe von mechanischen Werkzeugen wie der auf die ursprüngliche Grösse gebracht werden kann. Man hat deshalb schon früher versucht, eiserne Schmelzrinnen zu verwen den. Bei diesen wurde aber die Wandstärke so gross gewählt, dass der weitaus grössere Teil der elektrischen Energie im Eisenquer- schnitt in Wärme umgesetzt wird.
Um diese Nachteile zu vermeiden, wird die Schmelzrinne des erfindungsgemässen Ofens mit einem Eisen- oder Stahlblechrohr ausgekleidet. Die Wandstärke dieses Blech rohres wird, im Gegensatz zu den bisher an gewendeten Ausführungen, so gering bemes sen, dass sie kleiner ist als die Eindringtiefe des Stromes, beispielsweise nur 1 bis 3 mm bei einer Frequenz von 50 Hz und einer rela tiven Permeabilität des Blechmaterials von etwa 400. Dadurch wird erreicht, dass ein Teil des Stromes im zu schmelzenden Ma terial fliesst.
Ein Ausführungsbeispiel des Erfindungs gegenstandes ist in der Figur dargestellt. Mit 1 ist der Ofentransformator und mit 2 die Schmelzrinne, die mit dem Blech 3 ausge kleidet ist, bezeichnet. Der Blechzylinder kann durch die verschliessbare Öffnung 4 ein geschoben werden und wird beispielsweise durch vorstehende Eisenlaschen gehalten, die nach oben gebogen sind und das Rohr gegen Herausrutschen aus der Rinne sichern.
Low frequency furnace for melting magnesium and magnesium alloys. Melting magnesium in low-frequency furnaces has previously caused great difficulties because the furnace channel, which is usually curved, quickly clogged. The clogging of the channel has the following causes:
Magnesium oxide, cover salts or mixtures of the two attach to the kera mix lining of the channel and adhere to it in such a way that the channel cross-section can only be brought to its original size with the help of mechanical tools such as the one. Attempts have therefore been made earlier to use iron melt channels. In these, however, the wall thickness was chosen so large that the far greater part of the electrical energy in the iron cross-section is converted into heat.
In order to avoid these disadvantages, the melt channel of the furnace according to the invention is lined with an iron or sheet steel pipe. The wall thickness of this sheet metal tube is, in contrast to the designs previously applied, so small that it is smaller than the penetration depth of the current, for example only 1 to 3 mm at a frequency of 50 Hz and a relative permeability of the sheet material of about 400. This ensures that part of the current flows in the material to be melted.
An embodiment of the subject invention is shown in the figure. With 1 of the furnace transformer and with 2 the melt channel, which is clad with the sheet 3 is referred to. The sheet metal cylinder can be pushed through the closable opening 4 and is held, for example, by protruding iron tabs that are bent upwards and secure the pipe against slipping out of the channel.
