  • the main object of the present invention is to provide a ceramic filter which also enables effective cleaning of such metal melts which have a high degree of resistance to temperatures above 1000 ° C., in particular of cast iron.
  • the task is to create a ceramic filter of the aforementioned type, which has a high temperature resistance in the range of 1350 - 1650 C and allows a high potting speed.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for the production of such a ceramic filter, which both guarantees compliance with the required specifications and also permits rational production for mass production.
  • the invention thus relates to a ceramic filter with an open-cell foam structure based on Al 2 O_ or other highly refractory substances for filtering metal melts, characterized by a flow rate of 200 to 5000 cm 3 of melt per cm 2 of filter area per minute.
  • the flow rate according to the invention can be achieved by a large number of combinations of the main parameters, number of pores per cm / porosity / thickness of the filter, and applies to a position of the pouring funnel above the filter of 15 to 30 cm.
  • the filters according to the invention in particular when casting cast iron, have a significantly improved cleaning effect compared to the previously known agents and, because of their temperature resistance, also have increased operational reliability.
  • the use of the filter according to the invention does not change the composition of the filtered melt.
  • a ceramic filter which is preferably 0.5 to 18 per centimeter in length 0.5 - 8, has pores.
  • the desired coarse toxicity results in a lower porosity compared to known filters, which extends from 0.95 down to 0.3.
  • the porosity P is determined using the following formula:
  • the open-cell foam structure should have a high degree of uniformity. It should be noted here that at most 5%, preferably at most 2%, blocked pores, if possible in a uniform distribution, are present in order to avoid channel formation and thus a reduction in the efficiency of the filter.
  • a large number of materials can be used to manufacture the filter according to the invention.
  • the main constituent is preferably Al 2 O 3 in an amount of 60-95% by weight, preferably 75-80% by weight.

  • the excess slurry is removed from the foam by passing the impregnated foam through a system of pairs of rollers. The foam is then dried to remove the water.
  • the organic substance and the residual water can be removed by heating, for example to above 225 ° C.
  • Particularly effective filters can be produced by subjecting them to a re-impregnation in order to secure the exposed cell webs lying on the surface of the filter against breaking and to give the filter an increased temperature resistance.
  • the dried and impregnated foam described above is subjected to a further impregnation with a ceramic slurry on the surface, dried again and heated to remove the organic substance and at temperatures between 1200 ° C and 1500 ° C, preferably between 1350 C and 1450 ° C calcined.

  • the melt poured into the sprue 3 thus flows through the ceramic filter from bottom to top, the filtered melt passing through part 2b of the barrel into the mold cavity.
  • FIG 3 shows the arrangement of a ceramic filter 1 designed as a round plate between the sprue 3 and the barrel 2 leading to the mold cavity, the filter 1 likewise being easily insertable into the mold base provided with the barrel 2 and from above is flowed through by the melt below.
  • FIG. 4 shows the arrangement of the ceramic filter 1 between the barrel 2 and a closed feeder 4 - also called ingot - arranged above it in the upper part of the mold, from which the melt directly into the cavity of the mold to be produced Casting 5 arrives.

Abstract

Un filtre en ceramique de structure poreuse a alveoles ouvertes, a base d'oxyde d'aluminium ou d'autres substances hautement refractaires, en particulier a teneur elevee en alumine, est utilise pour filtrer, respectivement pour purifier des metaux en fusion dont la temperature de coulee est superieure a 1000 C, notamment de la fonte en fusion, lors de la coulee dans des moules en sable ou dans des coquilles. La vitesse de passage a travers le filtre s'eleve a 200 - 5000 cm3 de matiere en fusion par cm2 de surface du filtre par minute. La fabrication du filtre en ceramique utilisable a la maniere d'un article a jeter est realisee a l'aide d'un liant au phosphate de monoaluminium.
