Definitions
- the invention relates to molded sintered bodies for vacuum switch contacts and to a method for their production, in which the sintered material is first produced from a metal powder which forms the matrix and has a high melting point by mixing, pressing and sintering and then impregnating the matrix with an impregnating material having a lower melting point.
- Such switch contacts are particularly suitable for vacuum switches in medium-voltage networks with high breaking capacities.
- a method for producing contacts for vacuum switches or vacuum spark gaps is already known, in which a skeleton body is produced by pressing and sintering a high-melting metal powder, on the surface of which a plate made of an impregnating material with a lower melting point is then placed, whereupon this unit is under vacuum held at a temperature below the melting temperature of the first melting metal until the traces of oxygen are removed from the surface of the metals. The temperature is then increased to the melting temperature of the metal with the lower melting temperature, the pores being filled with the impregnating material.
- the skeleton body consists of chrome, the impregnation material made of copper, silver or a copper alloy that contains ⁇ 0.3% zirconium, tantalum or titanium (DE-A1 2521 504).
- the invention is based on the object of specifying shaped sintered bodies for vacuum switch contacts and a method for their production, the above disadvantages not occurring and switch contact pieces of high conductivity being obtainable by a simpler procedure in which a dissolution of the high-melting matrix material in the lower-melting impregnating material is prevented.
- the molded bodies placed in pairs are placed in a vacuum oven and, after evacuation, sintered to a pressure of 10-2 Pa at 1050 ° C. for 2 h to form a liquid phase caused by the low-melting eutectic Cu-B with simultaneous degassing.
- a metallurgical reaction leads to the formation of chromium boride.
- the temperature is then raised to 1150 ° C. and kept at this value for 1 h.
- the pad melts and penetrates as the degassing continues into the sintered body.
- the vacuum oven is then cooled to 900 ° C. and kept at this temperature for 2 hours.
- the boron is separated from the eutectic alloy Cu-B in the form of a finely dispersed structural component.
- the proportion of dissolved chromium which is severely restricted by the chromium boride formed is likewise finely dispersed from the impregnating alloy, so that the highly conductive copper is available without restriction in the contact for the power line.
- the remaining amount of the impregnation material used which is at least equivalent to the determined pore volume, can be placed on the compact in the form of a compact plate.
- the sintering process is carried out at a temperature which is below the melting temperature of the impregnation material, but at least at a temperature at which the filler material and the impregnation material form a eutectic.
- a degassing of the sintered body takes place simultaneously under the action of vacuum at a pressure ⁇ 10 2 Pa.
- a sinter-promoting effect is also achieved by the formation of a liquid phase.
- the reduced surface tension of the impregnation material due to the filler material causes it to be sucked into fine pores and the subsequent impregnation to be influenced positively.
- the filler material undergoes a metallurgical reaction with the higher-melting matrix material, a coherent, coherent surface layer surrounding the matrix material, which in turn leads to solutions gears between the matrix material and the impregnating material flowing in during the subsequent impregnation process are inhibited.
- the temperature is increased to at least the melting temperature of the impregnation material and the specified time is kept at this temperature, as a result of which the pores are filled to a residual pore content of 1 l with simultaneous further degassing of the sintered body.
- the filler material made of the eutectic alloy and the possibly small proportion of dissolved matrix material are finely dispersed due to the decreasing solubility in the impregnating material as the temperature decreases. These excretions cause embrittlement of the phase boundary between matrix material and impregnation material and thus inhibit the tendency to weld.
