Description

The manufacturing approach that contains the copper alloy wire of active element
Technical field
The present invention relates to be made up of the copper alloy that contains Cr, Zr, Si etc., Electric slips the manufacturing approach of the middle high-intensity copper alloy wires that use such as lead.
The application is incorporated herein its content based on advocating priority 2010-14397 number in the special hope of the Japan of japanese publication on January 26th, 2010.
Background technology
In the past, slip the raw material of lead etc. as Electric, fine copper or contain the copper wires of the copper alloy etc. of Sn is widely used.These copper wires for example use patent documentation 1 and the continuous casting machine shown in the patent documentation 2 to make.In patent documentation 1 and the continuous casting machine shown in the patent documentation 2, foundry furnace directly is connected with casting mold, in casting mold, solidifies the ingot casting that obtains to pulling out above horizontal direction, the vertical direction or below the vertical direction.
In this continuous casting machine,, therefore be particularly suitable for making wire rod owing to can make ingot casting continuously than minor diameter.
In recent years, as the lead that slips of used for high-speed railway such as the Shinkansen, require by with specific strength is higher and copper alloy that electric conductivity is good constitutes mutually in the past wire rod.
Wherein, as intensity height and the good copper alloy of electric conductivity, can enumerate the copper alloy that for example contains Cr, Zr, Si etc.Contain in the copper alloy of these elements, through carrying out suitable heat treatment, the precipitate particle is dispersed in the parent phase of copper, can realize the raising of intensity and guaranteeing of electric conductivity.
The wire rod of the copper alloy of this Cr of containing, Zr, Si etc. was made in the past as follows: make the big ingot casting of sectional area that is called cake or billet, this ingot casting is carried out hot-working, cold working, thus the wire rod of manufactured copper alloy.
Yet, make the big ingot casting of sectional area, when then carrying out hot-working or cold working and make wire rod, the length of resulting wire rod receives the restriction of ingot casting size, therefore can not obtain long wire rod.In addition, the problem that has the production efficiency difference.
Therefore, the wire rod that in patent documentation 3, discloses the copper alloy that will contain Cr, Zr etc. in the horizontal direction, above the vertical direction or pull out below the vertical direction, thereby make the technological thought of the wire rod of minor diameter continuously.That is, proposed through the wire rod of the copper alloy that contains Cr, Zr etc. being cast like patent documentation 1, the continuous casting machine shown in 2.
In addition, the technology of making the wire rod of the copper alloy that contains Cr, Zr through the horizontal continuous casting machine that uses heated mold is disclosed in patent documentation 4.
Yet in the continuous casting machine of patent documentation 1 and patent documentation 2 expressions, casting mold is made up of the excellent graphite (graphite) of solid lubrication property usually, and the casting mold that is made up of this graphite directly contacts with the motlten metal in the foundry furnace.
Wherein, elements such as Cr, Zr, Si are the reactive high active element with graphite.Therefore, elements (active element) such as the Cr in casting mold and the molten copper, Zr, Si reactions generates carbide, and the bonding or casting mold of ingot casting that is cast and casting mold shifts to an earlier date loss, thereby can not cast long-term and stably.
In addition, in the horizontal continuous casting machine of patent documentation 1,2 records,, can receive the influence of gravity when therefore in casting mold, solidifying owing on general horizontal direction, pull out ingot casting.In addition, between casting mold and ingot casting, produce the gap that is called air-gap owing to solidification shrinkage, in horizontal continuous casting machine, different with lower side air-gap amount at the upper side of ingot casting.Therefore, different with the lower side cooling velocity at the upper side of ingot casting, the quality of the ingot casting that is made up of the copper alloy that contains Cr, Zr, Si etc. might be unstable.In addition, as stated, owing to produce the loss in advance of the bonding or casting mold of ingot casting and casting mold, the surface quality variation of ingot casting perhaps becomes difficult from pulling out of casting mold, thereby can not stably cast.
In patent documentation 3, the wire rod that discloses the copper alloy that will contain Cr, Zr etc. is in the horizontal direction, vertical direction top or vertical direction below pull out, thus the thought of making the wire rod of minor diameter continuously.Yet, as stated, in continuous casing in the past, can not make the wire rod of the copper alloy that contains Cr, Zr, Si etc. continuously.
In addition, in patent documentation 4, disclose, suppressed the reaction of graphite and Cr, Zr isoreactivity element, made the wire rod of the copper alloy that contains Cr, Zr etc. through horizontal continuous casting machine continuously through using heated mold.Yet because graphite casting mould itself contacts with the molten copper of high temperature, it is severe that oxidation loss becomes.In addition, when using heated mold,, therefore there is the problem that to enhance productivity owing to be difficult for increasing the speed of pulling out of ingot casting.Further, in this patent documentation 4,, therefore also there be influence, the instability quality problem that receives gravity owing to pull out ingot casting in general horizontal direction.
