Please refer to Figure 1A, Figure 1B, Figure 1A is the schematic diagram according to the atmospheric plasma generating device of a kind of tool function of electric arc control of preferred embodiment of the present invention, and Figure 1B is the schematic diagram of Figure 1A atmospheric plasma generating device in the plasma outlet side.Shown in Figure 1A, atmospheric plasma generating device 100 comprises element such as an electrode 120 and an airflow control mechanism 140 in the shell 110,, below the configuration and the effect of each element is described one by one.
Shell 110 for example is a hollow housing, and it has a relative electrode end 112 and one plasma port of export 114 is set.The material of shell 110 can be metal or nonmetallic materials.
Interior electrode 120 is arranged in the shell 110, and the position electrode be provided with the end 112, wherein, interior electrode 120 is connected to a power supply unit 200.Interior electrode 120 for example is a metal electrode, uses copper mostly, or the class refractory metal or the alloy of stainless steel, tungsten.The gas of electrode 120 adjacent sides produced the effect dissociate in the voltage that power supply unit 200 provides can make, and formed the plasma gas that is made of the ion of free electron, positively charged and unionized atom etc.Also owing to there is the ion of electronegative free electron and positively charged, so plasma gas has very high conductivity, and produces the effect of electric arc 400.
The plasma port of export 114, it has plasma outlet 132.The shape of plasma outlet 132 does not limit, and its big I for example is that the exit velocity of plasma gas goes to set according to demand.
Airflow control mechanism 140 is arranged on electrode end 112 is set, produce vortex air-flow 300 in order to periphery at interior electrode 120, concentrate towards the middle positions in the shell 110 by this electric arc 400 that interior electrode 120 is produced, and pilot arc 400 is to the plasma port of export 114.Because when electric arc 400 was controlled in the cavity of shell 110, runner can strengthen to reduce plasma gas flow speed, therefore can tentatively reduce the electric arc 400 diffusing probability of overflowing.
Shown in Figure 1A, airflow control mechanism 140 for example comprises a gas guide element 142 and a gas supply device (not illustrating).Gas guide element 142 has 144 peripheries at interior electrode 120 of a plurality of oblique through holes, and is communicated in the shell 110.These oblique through holes 144 are to be parallel to each other, and in addition, the bearing of trend A1 of oblique through hole 144 preferably presents crooked relation with the bearing of trend A2 of interior electrode 120.
The gas that gas supply device (not illustrating) is supplied can and enter in the shell 110 by oblique through hole 142.And when gas when oblique through hole 144 pours in the shell 110, because the configuration mode of oblique through hole 144, the gas that pours into can rotate around interior electrode 120, thereby can produce eddy airstream 300 in the periphery of interior electrode 120, then, electric arc 400 guiding that just can be subjected to eddy airstream 300 is moved.Thus, just electric arc 400 can be controlled at middle position in the shell 110.
The injecting type atmosphere plasma is because concentration of energy, can be used for high speed processing material surface, improve the water-wet behavior on material surface, when still being applied in metal material or conductor material surface, the caused electric arc of plasma can overflow and loose to the metal surface, causes the damage of metal surface.At this, mainly be configuration and the design that utilizes the electric arc lead electrode, the position that electric arc 400 is produced directs into the cavity inboard of shell 110, makes the plasma outlet not have the electric arc that overflows and loose.
Preferably, in atmospheric plasma generating device 100, can install at least one electric arc lead electrode, and the electric arc lead electrode is preferably along radially being plugged in the plasma port of export 114 of the plasma port of export 114, and interior electrode 120 is positive pole and the negative pole (or earth terminal) that is connected to power supply unit 200 respectively with the electric arc lead electrode.
Present embodiment is to be that example is done explanation with four electric arc lead electrode 150, right the present invention is not limited thereto, and also can only install the electric arc lead electrode 150 of single electric arc lead electrode 150 or other number in the plasma port of export 114 of atmospheric plasma generating device 100.In addition, electric arc lead electrode 150 can be solid or hollow tube, does explanation with solid electric arc lead electrode 150 (seeing Figure 1A) earlier at this.
Electric arc lead electrode 150 is equally spaced to be plugged in the plasma port of export 114, shown in Figure 1B.Electric arc lead electrode 150 is connected to a power supply unit 200 or an earth terminal, and wherein, it is the inner surfaces that protrude the plasma port of export 114 that each electric arc lead electrode 150 has a tip 152.Because most advanced and sophisticated 152 design can make charge concentration, thereby can produce the effect of point discharge, can attract electric arc 400 by this, thereby be controlled the position of electric arc 400 in the plasma port of export 114, the problem of further avoiding electric arc to overflow and loose.
The tip 152 of Figure 1B is the pattern of cusp, and right the present invention is not limited thereto.As shown in Figure 2, the tip 152 ' of electric arc lead electrode 150 ' also can be the pattern of a sphere, and it has the characteristics that attract electric arc equally.
Because the material of shell 110 can be metal or nonmetal, when the material of shell 110 when being nonmetal, shown in Figure 1A, electric arc lead electrode 150 is can see through lead 160 be connected to power supply unit 200.
Then please refer to Fig. 3, it is that the electric arc lead electrode sees through the schematic diagram that shell is connected to power supply unit.As shown in Figure 3, when the material of shell 110 was metal, in fact electric arc lead electrode 150 can directly see through shell 110 and be connected to power supply unit 200.At this moment, electrically contact for avoiding shell 110 to produce with interior electrode 120, the preferable isolated component 170 that is provided with is between interior electrode 120 and shell 110, with electrode 120 and shell 110 in isolated.
