Fig. 1 (a) and 1 (b) are the cutaway views that the process of the formation one in the method for example 1 of the contact structures of making vacuum valve is shown.The contact structures that the method for the contact structures of the vacuum valve by making example 1 is made are corresponding to the movable contact 5 of vacuum valve shown in Figure 4.
At first, in the method for the contact structures of the manufacturing vacuum valve of example 1, the cylinder 26 of preparation cup-like structure shown in Fig. 1 (a), this cup-like structure has bottom 25.It is that 16mm, internal diameter are that the 10mm and the degree of depth are the container of the cup-like structure of 25mm that cylinder 26 is made external diameter by austenitic stainless steel (the coding SUS304 of Japanese Industrial Standards) bar.
The basis material 27 of electrode bar is installed in this cylinder 26.The basis material 27 of electrode bar is that an external diameter is about the oxygen-free copper that 10mm, length are about 10mm.
Then molded 28 of sintered body is put on the opening of the basis material that is used for the installing electrodes rod 27 of cylinder 26 and is fixed on this opening.To after heating, form contact chip, and make for molded 28 by copper-chromium sintered body by infiltrating method.Form at the major part external diameter for molded 28 and be about 15mm, be about 10mm at the smaller portions external diameter, and thickness is about 10mm.
A kind of method of being made by the Cu-Cr sintered body of molded 28 that is used to make is hereinafter described.Grind by machinery that aluminium-deoxidized chromium piece prepares chromium powder in melting process, granular size is adjusted to and is not more than 74 μ m.Prepare the copper powder that particle diameter is not more than 44 μ m by electrolysis.Measure chromium powder and copper powder, making its mass ratio is 55Cu-Cr, and mixes with the V-type blender.
This mixture in oxygen-free environment at 1tonf/cm 2(98MPa) extrusion forming under the pressure, and in nonoxidizing atmosphere, under about 1,000 ℃ temperature, heat then, this temperature is lower than the fusing point of copper.This moulding process is called sintering process in powder metallurgy.
The former fecula of chromium is the chromium powder of above-mentioned deoxidation.Its reason is that the contact material that is used in the vacuum valve sends all gases molecule, mainly is oxygen when the electric arc that connection and disengagement owing to contact produce makes the contact fusing.The gas that discharges is easy to increase the pressure in the vacuum tank.Thereby, use the deoxidation chromium powder to be intended to making oxygen content minimum.
About copper powder,, also can use atomized copper powder although obtain by electrolysis with copper powder in this example no problemly.
Molded 28 is being put into after cylinder 26 is used on the opening of basis material 27 of installing electrodes rod, with infiltration material 29, the oxygen-free copper block of about 10mm of external diameter and the about 8mm of length is placed on the top surface of molded 28 (CuCr sintered body).Hole in the filling porous CuCr sintered body of infiltration material, thus contact chip formed.
As mentioned above, the basis material 27 of electrode bar and infiltration material 29 are by identical materials, and a deoxidized cooper constitutes.Cylinder 26 can be made by any material that fusing point is higher than the fusing point (being the fusing point of copper in the situation of example 1) of the fusing point of basis material 27 of electrode bar and infiltration material 29.In example 1, the basis material of cylinder 26 is austenitic stainless steels.
Selecting austenitic stainless steel for the basis material of cylinder 26 is because austenitic stainless steel has good corrosion resistance, and anticorrosive object is provided and need not any special surface treatment in afterwards the step.
Therefore, the assembly 30 that forms shown in Fig. 1 (a) comprises the basis material 27 of cylinder 26, electrode bar, molded 28 and infiltration material 29.
Then, in nitrogen atmosphere at 1,200 ℃ of following assembly 30 of the above-mentioned setting of heating, with the basis material 27 (copper billet) of consumable electrode rod be placed on the molded 28 infiltration material 29 on (CuCr sintered body).
Be placed on molded 28 infiltration material 29 (copper billet) fusing and filling porous molded 28 (CuCr sintered body) interior hole on (CuCr sintered body), this technology is called infiltration technology in powder metallurgy.The remainder of infiltration material 29 falls into cylinder 26 basis materials 27 (copper billet) interior and the electrode bar in being placed on cylinder 26 in cylinder 26 and solidifies.
Fig. 1 (b) be the heating that obtains as mentioned above and solidify after the cutaway view of structure of assembly 31.Shown in Fig. 1 (b), the infiltration material 29 shown in Fig. 1 (a) is from the position complete obiteration on molded 28.But the contact chip 32 in the fine finishining front construction forms a part that comprises the infiltration material 29 on molded 28 and the cylinder 26.In cylinder 26, electrode bar 33 is formed by the remainder in spaces in the complete filling cylinder 26 of the basis material 27 of electrode bar and infiltration material 29.
Observe the microstructure of the cross section of the assembly 31 after heating and solidifying.Observe, link contact 32 with the interface 34 of cylinder 26 and by fusion in cylinder 26 and the binding cylinder 26 that solidify to form and 35 places, interface of electrode bar 33 in fusing, copper infiltrates in cylinder 26 grain boundaries, and corresponding each several part links at the interface securely at these.
In the interior section 36 of contact chip 32, the hole in the piece of previous porous by infiltration material (copper) complete filling to reinforce whole contact chip.37 places, interface between contact chip 32 and electrode bar 33, the remainder of infiltration material 29 forms whole and mutually continuous with the infiltration material 29 in the contact chip 32 with electrode bar 33.Therefore, also can guarantee firm binding at the interface at this.
Fig. 2 is the cutaway view that the structure of the assembly 31 after fine finishining is heated afterwards and solidified is shown.As shown in Figure 2, contact chip 32 is located into fillet in the top surface neighboring with chamfering, and fillet for example forms the structure of the contact chip that is suitable for vacuum valve.Part at cylinder 26 is processed to form the pin thread that is used to be connected to the peripheral operation device to it, stays another part and is used to reinforce contact chip 32 and electrode bar 33.
In the first half, cutting cylinder body 26, stay the flange 38 that is used to reinforce contact chip 32 around contact chip 32, all the other barrel cuttings of cylinder 26 these the first half reach 2/3 of thickness, stay 1/3 thickness and form hollow cylinder part 39 to reinforce electrode bar 33.
In the latter half adjacent of cylinder 26, cut bottom 25 among Fig. 1 (a) and 1 (b) to expose the bottom of electrode bar 33 with hollow circle tube part 39.This latter half of cylinder 26 is formed for being connected to the pin thread 41 of peripheral operation device after cutting bottom 25.
Can before heating process, form pin thread 41.When after heating process, forming pin thread 41, can after forming pin thread 41, cut bottom 25, or can after cutting bottom 25, form pin thread 41.
Like this, just can make contact structures 42.These contact structures on its function corresponding to movable contact 5 shown in Figure 4.In addition, in these contact structures, contact chip 32 is attached firmly to electrode bar 33 and is used to reinforce the flange 38 of contact chip, and electrode bar 33 is attached firmly to hollow circle tube part 39 and pin thread 41, and latter two part is used to reinforce electrode bar 33.
In this example, in heating process, make whole contact structures form one, exempted soldering processes by infiltrating method.Therefore, the brazing layer material is in the footing that relatively poor wettable austenitic stainless steel can be used on contact chip 32 (flange 38), is used for the footing (hollow circle tube part 39) of electrode bar 33 and pin thread 41 (part of remaining cylinder 26 after the cutting processing) and any surface treatment that need be such as nickel plating, utilize the good corrosion resistance of austenitic stainless steel.
Although this case description uses the base metal material of CuCr alloy as contact chip 32, contact chip also can comprise one or both in copper and the silver, and is selected from the metal of chromium, tungsten, molybdenum, tantalum and the carbide of these metals.
Contact chip also can comprise the low melting point element such as tellurium, bismuth and lead.
In this example of the method for the contact structures of above-mentioned manufacturing vacuum valve, cylinder, electrode bar and contact chip are by forming one with heating when being used to form the infiltration of contact chip, and pin thread is formed on the cylinder.So, do not hinder the suitable relative size of after heating and curing, guaranteeing according to cylinder in the part of each assembling that does not have accurate relative size before the heating process.
Therefore, method of the present invention allows the coarse and release soldering processes of size of assembled part.Therefore, simplified manufacturing step.Realize between part at the interface firm binding by infiltrating method, and need not solid phase link in needed large-scale pressure apparatus.Therefore, can provide cheap contact.
