the liquid circulation device comprises a liquid curtain 5 formed by coating materials and arranged on one side of the opening.
In the embodiment, the device mainly heats the base rod 10 through a melting heat source 11, so that the end surface of the base rod 10 is melted into liquid to form a base liquid film; the matrix liquid film is evenly thrown out from two sides of the matrix liquid film under the rotating centrifugal action of the rotating driving element 8, then the matrix liquid film is crushed to form a liquid line 13, the liquid line 13 is continuously crushed to form matrix powder 14 under the action of surface tension, and the preparation of the powder is completed; the matrix powder 14 freely falls through the liquid curtain 5 in the liquid circulation device, so that the coating material wraps the matrix powder 14 from all directions to be soaked and contacted with the whole body, the surface modification of the powder is realized, and the coated powder 16 is obtained.
Wherein, the matrix powder 14 is matrix spherical powder. The base bar 10 is a metal-based material; it should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, a specific material of the base rod 10 is not limited, and for example, the base rod 10 may be titanium, zirconium, aluminum, or the like; the embodiment of the invention is particularly suitable for particle reinforced metal composite base materials, such as: iron-nickel-molybdenum alloy and aluminum-magnesium alloy. The base rod 10 may be a cylindrical solid material, and the end surface of the base rod is circular, so as to ensure that the diameters of the base powder 14 collected at the equal positions on two sides of the base rod 10 are consistent. The embodiment of the present invention does not limit the kind of the coating material.
In practical application, one end of the base rod 10 is fixedly connected with the rotary driving element 8, and the other end of the base rod 10 penetrates into the atomizing chamber 7 from the opening, so that the base rod 10 is positioned below the melting heat source 11, and the melting heat source 11 is convenient for heating the end face of the base rod 10. The liquid circulation device is arranged at one side of the opening, so that the liquid curtain 5 is parallel to the base rod 10. For the purpose of heating the base billet 10 while rotating it, a melting heat source 11 is disposed above the opening so as to be aligned with the base billet 10.

For example, in the case that the diameter of the base rod 10 may be between 5 and 200mm and the rotation speed of the rotary drive element 8 may be between 1000 and 100000r/min, the particle size of the base powder 14 to be thrown out is between 10 and 2000 um. Where r/min is expressed in revolutions per minute, indicating the number of revolutions per minute of the device.

wherein the coating material in the upper crucible 3 flows into the lower crucible 6 to form a liquid curtain 5.
Specifically, the power element 1 is connected to the upper crucible 6 and the lower crucible 3 through the pipe 2, respectively. In practical application, the liquid coating material is lifted from the lower crucible 3 under the pressure of the power element 1 and filled into the upper crucible 6, and the liquid coating material in the upper crucible 6 falls into the lower crucible 3 under the action of gravity to form the liquid curtain 5.
Wherein, the width of the liquid curtain 5 can be determined by the outlet width of the upper crucible 6, and the inlet width of the lower crucible 3 is larger than or equal to the outlet width of the upper crucible 6. It should be emphasized that the apparatus of the present embodiment is provided in a vertical position, with the curtain 5 of cladding material flowing under gravity from the upper crucible 6 to the lower crucible 3.
In an alternative embodiment provided herein, the fluid circulation device further comprises: and a secondary heating element 4 arranged on the upper part of the lower crucible 3. Therefore, the secondary heating element 4 can carry out secondary heating on the liquid coating material after the liquid coating material falls into the lower crucible 3, thereby ensuring the superheat degree of the liquid coating material, reducing the energy loss of the liquid coating material in the circulating flow process and ensuring the fluidity of the coating material.
Furthermore, two liquid flow circulating devices are symmetrically arranged at positions with equal distance on two sides of the opening, so that more matrix powder 14 can be coated by the coating material in the liquid curtain 5.
Further, the upper crucible 6 and the lower crucible 3 are annular structures, and the openings are taken as centers to form annular liquid curtains.
Further, the thickness of the coating layer of the coated powder 16 can be adjusted by adjusting the width of the liquid curtain 5 in the liquid flow circulation device. Illustratively, the width of the liquid curtain 5 in the embodiment of the present invention ranges from 10 mm to 200mm.

In an alternative embodiment provided herein, the centrifugal atomization device further comprises: and a feeding unit 12 disposed below the rotation driving member 8 and connected to the rotation driving member 8. In practical application, since the end surface of the base rod 10 close to the melting heat source 11 is thrown out due to the melting to form a base liquid film, the length of the base rod 10 is reduced, and in order to facilitate better heating of the end surface of the base rod 10 close to the melting heat source 11, the feeding unit 12 is arranged below the rotary driving element 8 to continuously push the base rod 10 close to the melting heat source 11 for loss compensation, so as to ensure that the end surface of the base rod 10 close to the melting heat source 11 can be better heated and melted.
Further, the apparatus further comprises a matrix powder cylinder 15 disposed between the liquid curtain 5 and the opening for collecting the matrix powder 14 that does not pass through the liquid curtain 5. In practical applications, some of the base powder 14 is thrown out at a low initial speed and cannot pass through the liquid curtain 5, so that it can be collected by the base powder cylinder 15.
In an optional embodiment provided herein, the apparatus further comprises: and a coating powder cartridge 17 disposed in the atomizing chamber 7. Specifically, the coating powder cylinder 17 is disposed between the liquid curtain 5 and the inner wall of the atomizing chamber 7 for collecting the coating powder 16.

In particular, the W-shaped collection port comprises two concave openings, arranged on the sides of the bottom opening of the atomising chamber 7, so that the liquid circulation means is between the two concave openings. Thus, the base powder cylinder 15 and the coating powder cylinder 17 are respectively provided at the recessed openings of the W-shape, and the coating powder 16 flows into the coating powder cylinder 17 by its own weight and the W-shape guide mechanism at the lower end of the atomizing chamber 7. The other part of the low-speed short-stroke base powder 14 flows into the base powder cylinder 15 under the action of self gravity and the W-shaped guide mechanism at the lower end of the atomizing chamber 7 because of the short flying distance.
Furthermore, the inclination range of the inclined plane at the W-shaped concave position is 15-90 degrees; in this way, good flowability of the powder can be ensured, and the base powder 14 and the coating powder 16 can be collected.
In an optional embodiment provided by the present application, the apparatus further comprises: a vacuum unit 18 and an inert atmosphere unit 19, respectively, connected to the atomizing chamber 7.
In practical application, the base material bar 10 has different metal materials and different technological requirements for the atomizing chamber 7, and air can be extracted from the atomizing chamber 7 through the vacuum unit 18 according to different metal materials, so that the vacuum degree of the atomizing chamber 7 meets the technological requirements.

In an alternative embodiment provided herein, the cladding material is a low saturation vapor pressure material. In practical application, the embodiment of the invention can realize powder coating by only heating the coating material without evaporating and gasifying the coating material, so that the low-saturated vapor pressure material can be used as the coating material, and the technical problems that in the prior art, the coating material needs to be evaporated and gasified, the operation is complex, the evaporation and gasification temperature of the low-saturated vapor pressure material (such as Nb, zr and the like for example) is high, and the powder modification is difficult to realize by the low-saturated vapor pressure material are solved.
