Description

La présente invention concerne une méthode de fabrication de corps creux sous pression tels que réservoirs, bouteilles ou autres, en alliages d'aluminium, type 7475 (selon la désignation de l'Aluminium Association) et présentent à la fois une haute résistance et une caracterisé élevésThe present invention relates to a method of manufacturing pressurized hollow bodies such as tanks, bottles or the like, from aluminum alloys, type 7475 (according to the designation of the Aluminum Association) and have both a high resistance and a characteristic. high

Jusqu'ici, les récipients sous pression très légers, en particulier ceux utilisés pour le transport et le stockage des gaz comprimés ou liquéfiés, ont été réalisés en alliage d'aluminium type 2001 (selon la désignation de l'Aluminium Association, édition du 1er Juin 1980). Or, si l'on veut obtenir avec cet alliage une excellente résistance à la corrosion sous tension (ce qui est fondamental pour des récipients sous pression), on est obligé d'utiliser un traitement thermique de revenu très poussé qui entraîne une diminution de la ténacité.So far, very light pressure vessels, in particular those used for the transport and storage of compressed or liquefied gases, have been made of aluminum alloy type 2001 (according to the designation of the Aluminum Association, edition of 1st June 1980). However, if one wants to obtain with this alloy an excellent resistance to corrosion under tension (which is fundamental for pressure vessels), one is obliged to use a very advanced heat treatment which results in a reduction in the tenacity.

En particulier, les allongements et la forme de la déchirure lors d'un essai d'éclatement sous pression hydraulique deviennent non conformes vis à vis des règlementations internationales en vigueur ou en préparation.In particular, the elongations and the shape of the tear during a burst test under hydraulic pressure become non-compliant with respect to the international regulations in force or in preparation.

Il était donc nécessaire de rechercher une méthode de fabrication de corps creux sous pression présentant les mêmes caractéristiques mécaniques (donc la même légèreté) et la même résistance à la corrosion sous tension (donc la même sécurité) que celles obtenues avec le 2001, et qui en plus, permettait de satisfaire les règlementations internationales au point de vue valeur des allongements et aspect de la déchirure lors d'un essai d'éclatement sous pression hydraulique.It was therefore necessary to search for a method of manufacturing hollow bodies under pressure having the same mechanical characteristics (therefore the same lightness) and the same resistance to corrosion under tension (therefore the same safety) as those obtained with the 2001, and which in addition, made it possible to satisfy international regulations from the point of view of the value of elongations and aspect of the tear during a burst test under hydraulic pressure.

La demanderesse a trouvé une méthode de fabrication permettant d'attein- dre les objectifs ci-dessus énoncés, et qui sont les suivants : . résistance mécanique
