Description

Verfahren zum Herstellen von Kupferoxydul-Gleichrichterelementen Es ist ein Verfahren zum Herstellen von Kupferoxydul-Gleichrichterelementen bekannt, nach welchem man auf einem Kupferkörper durch Erhitzung unter Luftzutritt eine Oxydulschicht bildet und ihn dann zweistufig in der Weise abkühlt, daß man ihn zunächst in einem Kühlofen kurzzeitig von der Oxydationstemperatur (etwa iooo° C) auf eine mittlere Temperatur (etwa 6oo° C) herunterkühlt und schließlich in kaltem Wasser abschreckt. Es soll auf diese Weise nicht nur eine besonders gleichmäßige und dichte, sondern vor allem eine an dem Kupferkörper festhaftende Oxydulschicht erzielt werden.Method of making copper oxide rectifier elements Es a method for producing copper oxide rectifier elements is known, after which a layer of oxide is formed on a copper body by heating it with the admission of air forms and then cools it in two stages in such a way that it is first in one Cooling furnace briefly from the oxidation temperature (about 100 ° C) to a medium one Temperature (about 600 ° C) cools down and finally quenched in cold water. In this way it should not only be particularly even and dense, but above all an oxide layer adhering firmly to the copper body can be achieved.

Mit diesem bekannten Verfahren lassen sich Kupferoxydulgleichrichter mit einer Sperrspannung von etwa 5 Volt pro Element herstellen, die einen verhältnismäßig niedrigen Widerstand in der Stromdurchflußrichtung aufweisen und bei gutem Wirkungsgrad mit verhältnismäßig hoher Stromstärke belastbar sind.This known method can be used for copper oxide rectifiers with a reverse voltage of about 5 volts per element, which is a relatively have low resistance in the direction of current flow and with good efficiency can be loaded with a relatively high amperage.

Es ist auch bekannt, daß man I#',upferoxydul-Gleichrichterelemente für eine höhere als die normale Sperrspannung, und zwar für 15 Volt und mehr, erzielen kann, wenn man die unter Luftzutritt geglühten Kupferscheiben sich allmählich in Luft bis auf Raumtemperatur abkühlen läßt. Die auf dieseWeise hergestellten Gleichrichterelemente weisen einen höheren Widerstand in der Durchlaßrichtung als die Scheiben für normale Sperrspannung auf, sind strommäßig weniger hoch belastbar und ergeben bei gleicher Leistung wie die normalen Scheiben einen gleichen Wirkungsgrad.It is also known to use I # ', copper oxide rectifier elements for a higher than normal reverse voltage, namely for 15 volts and more can, if the copper disks, annealed with air, are gradually turned into Allow air to cool to room temperature. The rectifying elements made in this way have a higher resistance in the forward direction than the discs for normal Reverse voltage on, are less highly resilient in terms of current and result in the same Performance as the normal disks have the same efficiency.

Die Erfindung bezweckt, Kupferoxydul-Gleichrichterelemente zu schaffen, deren Sperrspannung weit über dem normalen Wert von etwa 5 Volt pro Element liegt und die trotzdem einen kleinen Durchlaßwiderstand aufweisen. Da diese Elemente strom- und spannungsmäßig hoch belastbar sind, können sie höher ausgenutzt werden und ergeben einen besseren Wirkungsgrad als die durch kurzzeitige Anwendung einer Zwischentemperatur in einem Kühlofen und nachfolgendes Abschrecken in kaltem Wasser erzielten Gleichrichterelemente für normale Sperrspannung. Dieser Zweck wird gemäß der Erfindung dadurch erreicht, daß man die unter Luftzutritt bei etwa iooo° C geglühten Kupferscheiben im unmittelbaren Anschluß an die Glühung einer 30 Minuten oder länger dauernden Zwischenbehandlung in einem an sich bekannten Kühlofen bei 300 bis 6oo° C unterwirft und sie darauf in einem warmen, flüssigen Mittel abschreckt. Als Abschreckmittel ist sowohl warmes Wasser als auch geschmolzenes Paraffin oder Wood-Metall geeignet.The aim of the invention is to create copper oxide rectifier elements whose reverse voltage is well above the normal value of about 5 volts per element and which nevertheless have a low forward resistance. Since these elements can withstand high currents and voltages, they can be used to a greater extent and result in better efficiency than the rectifier elements for normal reverse voltage achieved by briefly applying an intermediate temperature in a cooling furnace and subsequent quenching in cold water. This purpose is achieved according to the invention by subjecting the copper disks annealed with air at about 100 ° C. immediately after the annealing to an intermediate treatment lasting 30 minutes or longer in a cooling furnace known per se at 300 to 600 ° C. and then subjecting them quenching in a warm liquid medium. Both warm water and molten paraffin or Wood metal are suitable as quenching agents.

Die günstige Wirkung des vorstehend beschriebenen Verfahrens dürfte darauf zurückzuführen sein, daß infolge der verlängerten Zwischenhandlung (30 oder mehr Minuten, statt wie bisher nur 5- bis 8 Minuten) ein Sauerstoffausgleich herbeigeführt wird; der den Scheiben höchste Zeitfähigkeit ve und daß infolge des verzögerten Ab im warmen Mittel eine hohe SperrfÄ'81,a. erzielt wird.The beneficial effect of the method described above can be attributed to the fact that, as a result of the prolonged intermediate action (30 or more minutes, instead of only 5 to 8 minutes as before), an oxygen balance is brought about; the the disks have the highest time capacity and that as a result of the delayed Ab in the warm mean a high blocking factor 81, a. is achieved.
