Detailed Description
The present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the following specific examples and the accompanying drawings. The present invention is not limited to the embodiments described below, and various modifications, changes, combinations, and improvements based on the technical idea of the present invention adopted within the knowledge of those skilled in the art are included in the scope of the present invention.
Fig. 1 is a schematic structural view of a thermal plasma torch according to the present embodiment. As shown in fig. 1, a cathode assembly 1, a first anode assembly 2 and a second anode assembly 3, wherein the cathode assembly 1 is electrically connected to the cathodes of the first power source 4 and the second power source 5, the first anode assembly 2 is electrically connected to the anode of the first power source 4, and the second anode assembly 3 is electrically connected to the anode of the second power source 5, so that when the first power source 4 and/or the second power source 5 are turned on, discharge is generated between the cathode assembly 1 and the first anode assembly 2 and/or the second anode assembly 3, and ionized gas inside the thermal plasma torch is ionized, thereby generating a high-temperature plasma arc, which can heat and melt external substances.
In particular, the stability of the arc when a thermal plasma torch is in use often determines the reliability of the torch in use and the lifetime of the torch. There are many factors that affect the stability of the arc, such as the type of ionized gas, the voltage and current level of the power supply, the length of the arc (i.e., the distance between the cathode and the anode, etc.).
Wherein the ionized gas may be N2Gas or Ar gas, in particular, N2The gas has high ion flame enthalpy and fast heat transfer, is beneficial to heating and melting external materials, but cannot be used for materials which are easy to generate nitridation reaction. The Ar gas has lower ionization potential, stable and easy ignition of generated electric arc and shorter arc flame, and has good protection effect, but the Ar gas is compared with N2The heat content of the gas is low and the price is expensive.
The first power source 4 and the second power source 5 may be any power source device capable of providing suitable voltage and current, and as a preferred example, the first power source 4 and the second power source 5 are dc power sources, and the dc current is more favorable for improving the stability of the arc.
In addition, the length of electric arc needs to match with the voltage and the current size of the power, so set up first power 4 and second power 5 respectively to first anode subassembly 1 and second anode subassembly 2 to can set up suitable voltage and current according to the electric arc length (being the distance between negative pole and the positive pole) that produces between different anode subassemblies and the negative pole subassembly 1, be favorable to improving the stability of the electric arc that thermal plasma spray gun produced.
Through above mode, at first, first anode assembly 2 and second anode assembly 3 to two anode assemblies dispose independent first power 4 and second power 5 respectively, thereby when hot plasma spray gun used, the high temperature electric arc that produces can also can be inside second anode assembly 3 inside first anode assembly 2, has avoided single positive pole and the local high temperature electrode ablation that leads to, has improved hot plasma spray gun's life.
Secondly, set up two anodes in the thermal plasma spray gun, compare and can only produce an electric arc in single anode, the setting of double anode can make the electric arc that thermal plasma spray gun produced longer, set up the mutually independent power to double anode simultaneously and make and to dispose first power 4, the second power 5 of different voltages according to the electric arc length difference that produces between cathode assembly 1 and first anode assembly 2, cathode assembly 1 and the second anode assembly 3 for the electric arc that produces between cathode assembly 1 and the anode assembly, especially longer cathode assembly 1 of electric arc that produces and the second anode assembly 3 is more stable.
Finally, the arrangement of the double anodes enables the power of the thermal plasma torch to be no longer single, and further, the arrangement of the independent power supply can further expand the power adjustment range of the thermal plasma torch, specifically, in the embodiment, three kinds of power can be adjusted when the thermal plasma torch is used, an electric arc generated by the cathode assembly 1 and the first anode assembly 2 closer to the cathode assembly is the first power of the thermal plasma torch provided by the embodiment, and the electric arc generated by the thermal plasma torch is shorter at the power, and the temperature of the plasma jet is lower; the cathode assembly 1 and the second anode assembly 3 which is farther away generate longer electric arcs, which are the second power of the thermal plasma torch provided by the embodiment, and the electric arcs generated by the thermal plasma torch are longer under the second power, and the temperature of the plasma jet is medium; the cathode assembly 1 and the first anode assembly 2 and the cathode assembly 1 and the second anode assembly 3 simultaneously generate electric arcs, which provides the third power of the thermal plasma torch, the electric arcs generated by the thermal plasma torch are longer under the third power, and the temperature of the thermal plasma jet is the highest.
It should be noted that the specific structure of each component of the thermal plasma torch is not limited in the present invention, for example, the first anode assembly 2 may be a hollow circular ring structure in some embodiments, and in other embodiments, the first anode assembly 2 may also be a hollow sleeve structure with a necking section, and the structure of each component of the thermal plasma torch in the present invention may be simply replaced without departing from the spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is not exceeded.

In a preferred embodiment of the invention, seen in connection with fig. 2, the cathode assembly 1, the first anode assembly 2 and the second anode assembly 3 are sequentially spaced along an axis Y, when the thermal plasma spray gun works and the first power supply 4 and the second power supply 5 are both kept in an opening state, a first electric arc and a second electric arc are generated between the cathode component 1 and the first anode component 2 and between the cathode component and the second anode component 3, the first electric arc and the second electric arc are both superposed with the axis Y, at the moment, higher heat is generated in the middle of the coincident arcs, thereby generating plasma jet with higher temperature, stabilizing the arcs and simultaneously increasing the temperature of the thermal plasma jet, and in addition, when the thermal plasma spray gun works, the second power supply 5 is turned off for a period of time after being turned on, and when the first power supply 4 is turned on simultaneously, an electric arc is generated between the cathode assembly 1 and the second anode assembly 3, and then the falling point of the electric arc on the second anode assembly 3 is transferred to the first anode assembly 2 along the axis Y.
In addition, the interval sets up between negative pole subassembly 1, first positive pole subassembly 2 and the second positive pole subassembly 3 and can guarantee to keep insulating between each subassembly, can keep insulating between negative pole subassembly 1 and the first positive pole subassembly, avoid negative pole subassembly 1 and positive pole subassembly short circuit and cause the damage to the spray gun, also can keep insulating between first positive pole subassembly 2 and the second positive pole subassembly 3, avoid first positive pole subassembly 2 and the short circuit of second positive pole subassembly 3 and cause the condition that arc length changes. In particular, the gap may be filled by the insulating ring 7, and the insulating ring 7 has a simple structure and a connection function, so as to facilitate the integral installation of each component of the thermal plasma while ensuring the insulation, and of course, the gap may be filled by other insulating structures, for example, in some embodiments, an insulating ceramic is disposed at the connection of each component, or in other embodiments, an insulating gasket is added in the threaded connection between the components, which does not exceed the protection scope of the present invention.
Wherein, preferably, the cathode assembly 1 includes a cathode tap 11 capable of emitting electrons and a cathode sleeve 12 disposed around the cathode tap 11, in the thermal plasma spray gun, the cathode head 11 continuously emits electrons by means of thermionic emission effect during the use process, so that electrons can be continuously transmitted to the anode through electric arc conduction, preferably, thorium tungsten, cerium tungsten or lanthanum tungsten electrodes have the characteristics of high melting point (tungsten melting point 3410 +/-20 ℃), strong electron emission capability, low melting rate, corrosion resistance, good heat conduction and electric conductivity and the like, so adopt thorium tungsten, cerium tungsten or lanthanum tungsten material as negative pole head 11 material to the arcing performance of the negative pole subassembly 1 of thermal plasma spray gun is better, and the stability of electric arc is higher, and the electrode burnout rate is littleer, realizes the high efficiency start-up of thermal plasma spray gun, improves the stability of electric arc, extension cathode life.
The cathode sleeve 12 is wrapped around the cathode head 11, so as to block external impurities, and avoid the external impurities from being combined with electrons to affect the stability of the arc of the thermal plasma torch, further, after the cathode sleeve 12 wraps the cathode head 11, a gas passage needs to be arranged to provide ionized gas for the interior of the cavity of the thermal plasma torch, so that the cathode sleeve 12 is communicated with a first gas passage 121 for conveying ionized gas (helium, argon, hydrogen, etc.) to the interior of the thermal plasma torch, so that the ionization process is continuously performed, a stable arc is formed, further, the gas blowing direction of the first gas passage 121 is consistent with the direction of the cathode head 11 conveying electrons to the anode, the consistent direction does not mean two directions are overlapped strictly, only the ionized gas can be ionized in the arc on the axis Y after being blown close to the axis Y, so that the utilization rate of the ionized gas can be improved. In addition, when the thermal plasma spray gun works, the temperature of the cathode head 11 is very high, often can reach thousands of degrees or even tens of thousands of degrees, and the higher temperature is unfavorable for the cathode sleeve 12 and operators, so the cathode cooling water passage 122 is arranged on the cathode sleeve 12, the temperature of the arc radiation to the cathode sleeve 12 can be reduced through the cooling of the cooling water, the operation is convenient, and the service life of the thermal plasma spray gun is prolonged.

Wherein, preferably, the hollow parts of the first anode assembly 2 and the second anode assembly 3 are provided with necking sections along the axial direction. In this embodiment, taking the first anode assembly 2 as an example, fig. 3 is a cross-sectional view of the second anode assembly 3, when the ionized gas flows into the necking section from the a region, the tube diameter gradually decreases, the gas flow rate increases, and a higher gas flow rate enters the B region through the necking section, and a higher flow rate is still maintained within a distance, at this time, a low-pressure environment is generated around the gas with a higher flow rate, and the pressure difference between the a region and the B region is favorable for pushing the plasma to further rapidly flow out from the a region to the B region, so that the plasma torch is favorable for ejecting the thermal plasma jet outwards to perform the waste treatment operation.
Among them, fig. 4 is a sectional view preferably showing the structure of the intermediate member 6 of the thermal plasma torch provided in the present embodiment. Referring to fig. 2 and 4, the first anode assembly 2 and the second anode assembly 3 are connected by an intermediate member 6, and an additional gas passage 662 is provided on a sidewall of the intermediate member 6. In the embodiment, the first anode assembly 2 and the second anode assembly 3 are in insulation connection through the intermediate member 6, so that the insulation between the first anode assembly 2 and the second anode assembly 3 is further ensured, and the installation stability of the thermal plasma spray gun is facilitated; in addition, the ionized gas density inside the second anode assembly 3 is increased by providing an additional gas passage 662 on the intermediate member 6, and further by introducing the ionized gas into the ionized gas inflow end of the second anode assembly 3 of the thermal plasma torch through the additional gas passage 662, preferably, as shown in fig. 4, the additional gas passage 662 may be a gas passage passing through one end of the intermediate member 6 and the other end of the intermediate member 6 connected with the second anode assembly 3, and further, the additional gas passage 662 is preferably a flat gas passage, which is more advantageous for the introduction of the ionized gas, and when the cathode assembly 1 and the second anode assembly 3 are energized to generate an arc, the ionized gas is introduced between the first anode assembly 2 and the second anode assembly 3 (i.e., the arc end), so that the arc may be further stabilized.
Further, it is preferable that an additional cooling water passage 661 is further provided to the intermediate member 6. An additional cooling water passage 661 is provided between the first anode assembly 2 and the second anode assembly 3 to further cool the high temperature arc at the middle section of the thermal plasma torch.
Among them, fig. 5 is preferably an enlarged view of a portion a of the thermal plasma torch provided in the present embodiment. Referring to fig. 2 and 5, the insulating gas-distributing ring 13 is disposed between the cathode sleeve 12 and the cathode head 11, and a plurality of through holes 131 are formed on the insulating gas-distributing ring 13.
In the present embodiment, the ionized gas is introduced into the cavity of the thermal plasma torch through the first gas passage 121, and then rotates along the inclined wall surface of the insulating gas distribution ring 13; and the insulating gas-distributing ring 13 is also provided with a plurality of through holes 131 along the radial direction, so that ionized gas can only enter the cavity of the thermal plasma spray gun through the through holes 131. Because the ionized gas rotates along the inclined wall surface of the insulating gas distribution ring 13, and the gas entering the inner cavity of the plasma torch from the through hole 131 moves along different directions, so that collision occurs, the ionization effect of the gas is enhanced, in addition, the electric arc is compressed towards the center under the action of the rotated gas, so that the electric arc is elongated, the plasma gas is fully heated, and the waste treatment effect of the torch is improved.
In particular, as seen in fig. 2 and 4, an additional insulating gas distribution ring 663 is further provided in the additional gas passage 662, and when gas enters the second anode assembly 3 through the additional gas passage 662 provided in the intermediate member 6, rotation and collision can be generated, so that the second arc generated between the cathode assembly 1 and the second anode assembly 3 is also elongated, and the distance between the cathode assembly 1 and the second anode assembly 3 is further increased, so that the length of the second arc determines the longest length of the arc generated by the thermal plasma torch in the present invention to some extent, and therefore, the arc length of the thermal plasma torch can be further increased by providing the additional insulating gas distribution ring 663 in the additional gas passage 662.
