- a stable liquid jet of molten material is formed by ejection of the liquid through an appropriate orifice or nozzle, and then the jet of molten material is solidified on a moving heat sink.

- Figure 2 of GB-A-903,530 in combination with page 1 line 87 to page 2 line 8, discloses a crucible, parts of which are water- cooled to form a deposit of semi-solidified melt, but the problem of the invention, that an interaction between the crucible and the melt is avoided, is not solved by GB-A-903,530 since there only parts of the crucible are covered with semi-solid, spongy metal of the melt-with the purpose to serve as a valve seat for the valve stem-whereas the liner of the crucible is not protected with such a deposit of solidified material of the melt so that the melt could interact with the liner.

Description
- The present invention relates to an apparatus for rapid solidification casting of high temperature and/or reactive metallic alloys.
- Melt-spinning is one well established rapid solidification technique which has frequently been used to cast amorphous metal ribbons. To melt-spin a stable liquid jet of molten material is formed by ejection of the liquid through an appropriate orifice or nozzle, and then the jet of molten material is solidified on a moving heat sink. This technique is further described on pages 13 through 17 of a technical report, AFMR-TR-78-70 entitled "Amorphous Glassy Metals and Microcrystalline Alloys for Aerospace Applications" by E. W. Collings, R. E. Maringer, and C. E. Mobley. This report points out that while melt-spinning is particularly suited for producing the wire ribbon fibers of many nonreactive low melting alloys, the requirement of a stable crucible/orifice and jet severely limit the process utilization. The report states that titanium filaments have not be melt- spun since a stable crucible material is unavailable, and that operating difficulties with the orifice and jet have been encountered in attempts to melt-spin such materials as boron, beryllium and other reactive alloys.
- The FR-A-2 410 368 discloses an apparatus for casting metal filaments directly from the melt comprising a crucible with means for supplying heat to melt the metal, with a nozzle with a chill wheel and with means for controlling the ejection of the molten metal. Because of the interaction between the melt and the crucible it cannot be used to cast high temperature and/or reactive metallic alloys.
- High temperature nickel-base, nickel, chromium, titanium, aluminum alloys have been melted in watercooled copper crucibles. For example, GB-A-1,517,283 discloses the use of a water-cooled crucible for melting and containing nickel-base alloys. The metal is removed from the crucible by spinning the crucible about its axis to generate atomized particles of liquid which move out radially from the edge of the crucible. This patent offers no teaching that the metal can be extracted from the crucible through an orifice of limited dimensions.
- GB-A-1,428,691 discloses melting materials in water-cooled molds. The melt is then solidified in situ. Again, this patent offers no teaching of a technique for the extraction of liquid metal from a water-cooled mold through a constricted orifice. Thus, while the above examples show a method for melting materials in water-cooled crucibles, they provide no teachings of the use of these crucibles for melt-spinning.
- Figure 2 of GB-A-903,530 in combination with page 1 line 87 to
page 2line 8, discloses a crucible, parts of which are water- cooled to form a deposit of semi-solidified melt, but the problem of the invention, that an interaction between the crucible and the melt is avoided, is not solved by GB-A-903,530 since there only parts of the crucible are covered with semi-solid, spongy metal of the melt-with the purpose to serve as a valve seat for the valve stem-whereas the liner of the crucible is not protected with such a deposit of solidified material of the melt so that the melt could interact with the liner. As a consequence GB-A-903,530 would not put a person skilled in the art in a position to find the subject matter of the invention. Cross reference is made to the EP-application 81 108 161.1 disclosing a layer-protected crucible. - The objective on which the invention is based, is to provide an apparatus suitable for casting metal filaments or powders directly from the melt, but preventing interaction between the melt and the crucible.
- The apparatus according to the invention comprises a crucible which is constructed of thermally conductive material for holding a metal charge, means for supplying heat to melt the metal charge contained in said crucible to form a melt of molten metal, a nozzle forming an integral part of said crucible for ejection of a stream of molten metal, means for rapidly quenching the stream of molten metal and means for controlling the ejection of the molten metal, and is characterized in that one or more cooling passages are arranged internal to said crucible for passing a cooling medium therethrough to provide a solidified layer of the melt for preventing interaction between the melt and said crucible.
- Fig. 1 is a schematic representation of one molten material supply of the present invention which employs a single electrode.
- Fig. 2 is a schematic representation of the molten material supply of Figure 1 used in combination with a chill casting wheel.
- Fig. 3 is a schematic representation of a molten material supply and a chill wheel which are enclosed in a chamber to provide a controlled atmosphere.
- Fig. 4 is a schematic representation of a second molten material supply which employs two electrodes where the stream of molten metal is chilled and atomized by a gas stream.
- Referring to Fig. 1 a
heat extracting crucible 2 is employed for containing molten metal 4. Anozzle 6 is attached to heat extractingcrucible 2 and forms an integral part thereof. - The
heat extracting crucible 2 and thenozzle 6,are preferably made of a high conductivity material such as copper, brass or graphite. In order to increase the heat extracting capacity of theheat extracting crucible 2, the crucible has achannel 8 for the passage of water therethrough. The water inlet 10 andoutlet 12 allow the water to flow through thechannel 8. - The molten metal 4 is ejected through the
nozzle 6. The flow of the molten metal 4 is controlled by ashutter 14. The shutter is guided by atrack 15. - Heat is supplied to melt a metal charge and/or to the molten metal 4 by an
arc 16 which is struck between anelectrode 18 and the charge of the molten metal 4. Theelectrode 18 is attached to anelectrode holder 20 which is water-cooled. A potential is supplied byvoltage supply 22 between theelectrode holder 20 and theheat extracting crucible 2. It should be appreciated that other heating means such as an e-beam or a laser beam could be employed to supply heat to the molten metal 4. - The
heat extracting crucible 2 has acrucible cover 24 attached thereto. The crucible 2 and thecrucible cover 24 form achamber 25 which provides control of the atmosphere over the molten metal 4. Thecrucible cover 24 hassidewalls 26 which are watercooled bycooling coils 28. - The
crucible cover 24 has aremovable top 30. The top 30 is connected to thesidewalls 26 via aflange 32.Electrode holder 20 passes through theremovable top 30 and is electrically insulated from the top byseal 34. Agas outlet 36 in theremovable top 30 is connected to a two-way valve 38. Thevalve 38 in one position allows gas to be evacuated from thechamber 25 by a vacuum pump not shown and in the second position allows an inert atmosphere such as argon to be supplied to thechamber 25. - Fig. 2 is a schematic representation of the molten metal supply of Fig. 1 used in combination with a rotating
chill wheel 40 having acircumferential edge 42. Thechill wheel 40 is rotated by amotor 44. Theheat extracting crucible 2 may be positioned relative to thechill wheel 40 by twoorthogonal slide mechanisms nozzle 6 is positioned near theperipheral edge 42 of thechill wheel 40, theshutter 14 is opened by theshutter release 50. - When it is advisable to control the atmosphere in which the ribbon is cast as well as the atmosphere under which the material is melted, a
second chamber 52 encloses thechill wheel 40 and theheat extracting crucible 2, as is illustrated in Figure 3. Theelectrode holder 20 passes through theremovable top 30 of themelt chamber 25. Theremovable top 30 also serves as the top of thesecond chamber 52. Theremovable top 30 has aninlet 56 for evacuating the melt chamber and avalve 58 to block theinlet 56. Likewise anoutlet 60 having avalve 62 is used to provide a controlled atmosphere by the inlet of a gas such as argon.Inlet 64 andoutlet 67 respectively allow evacuation and refilling of thesecond chamber 52 with a gas such as argon. Thevalves inlet 64 andoutlet 67. - When the molten metal 4 is fully molten, a
skull 69 will be between thecrucible 2 and the molten material 4. When theshutter 14 is removed from thenozzle 6, a stream will impinge on theperipheral edge 42 of thechill wheel 40. - Rather than employing a
shutter 14, it is possible to use other means to constrain the flow of molten material through thenozzle 6. One such other means would be to place a small plug of low melting material in thenozzle 6. As the melt reaches temperature, the low melting material would soften; and when the argon pressure is increased in themelt chamber 25, the plug would be dislodged from thenozzle 6, and a stream would flow through thenozzle 6. - Another means to control the ejection of a molten material is illustrated in Fig. 4. A water- cooled
stopper rod 70 is employed to block the passage of thenozzle 6. When thestopper 70 is raised, a stream will issue from the nozzle. The stream can be rapidly quenched by impinging the stream with a jet ofgas 78 from agas nozzle 80 thereby atomizing the stream and promoting its cooling to form a rapidly-cooled powder product. An insulatingnozzle sleeve 72 lines thenozzle 6. Thenozzle sleeve 72 may be heated by aninduction coil 74 in the event that the nozzle sleeve is coupleable to the magnetic field of the induction coil, or alternatively agraphite susceptor 76 may be contacted to the nozzle sleeve, spare and heat induced into thegraphite susceptor 76. - For the configuration in Fig. 4, two electrodes are employed. The
electrodes 18 are held inelectrode holders 20, and mounted through the removable top 30 by pivotable sealed joints 77. A voltage from a supply (not shown) is applied between the two electrode holders. An arc is struck between theelectrodes 18 and the molten material 4. - An arc furnace similar to the furnace shown in Fig. 3 was employed. Both the melt chamber and the second chamber enclosing the rotating wheel were evacuated to 10-4 Torr (1.33x 10-2 Pa) and subsequently back-filled with high purity argon. The pressures in both chambers were equalized at about 20 cm of mercury. A charge weighing between about 50 to 100 grams was melted employing a non- consumable tungsten electrode.
- The melt was ejected through the nozzle by sliding away the shutter while increasing the pressure in the furnace by about 10 cm of mercury. Typical orifice sizes for the nozzle were between about 0.06 inch (0.15cm) and 0.1 inch (0.25 cm). The lower limit assures that it is possible to maintain a stream which does not chokeoff, while the upper limit assures the flow will be sufficiently restrained to establish a filament of uniform cross-section.
- Several metallic glass-forming alloys containing reactive metal such as titanium, zirconium, niobium and chromium were ejected onto the rotating wheels to form continuous ductile ribbons of good quality. Examples of the alloys cast were Ti50cu5o, Zr70Ni3o, Zr70Ni,5CuW NbeoNi40' and Fe40Ni30Cr10B20.
