Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for carrying out a metallic deposit on the rubbing parts of a turbine rotor as well as to its use for carrying out a deposit of chromium.
  • Turbine rotors operating at high temperatures must be made of creep-resistant steel.
  • a metallic coating preferably chromium
  • the device for carrying out the metal deposition makes it possible to obtain very low coefficients of friction thanks to the regularity of the deposition carried out.
  • Document EP-A-37033 discloses a device making it possible to deposit a metal coating on the hub of a rotor disc, said device comprising a tank with vertical axis 00 ′ consisting of a cylindrical part terminated by a conical part, said tank being filled with electrolyte, first means for supplying the tank with electrolyte and disposed towards the top of said tank, second means for discharging the electrolyte situated at the bottom of the tank, third means for regenerating and circulating the 'electrolyte located between the second means and the first means, fourth means for supporting a curtain of metal anodes to be deposited and for driving the electrolyte in rotation about the axis 00', fifth means for bringing a current of polarity given to the anode curtain.
  • the electrolyte is driven centrifugally by the fourth means to come and settle on the hub.
  • the electrolyte must be driven in a centripetal manner to come to deposit on the friction parts of the rotor located on the axis 00 '.
  • the fourth means consist of two cylindrical half-shells of axis 00 'each comprising an armature in the form of a semicircle on which the anodes are fixed in parallel to the axis 00 ', said anodes being surrounded externally by hollow tubes parallel to 00' connected together by hollow pipes also in the shape of a semicircle and supplied with compressed gas, the pipes and the reinforcements being secured by insulators , the tubes and the conduits being provided with nozzles ejecting the compressed gas in a horizontal direction making an angle close to 45 ° with the horizontal direction joining the nozzle considered to the axis 00 '.
  • the current is pulsed, which improves the homogeneity of the deposited chromium as well as its adhesion.
  • the device according to the invention (see FIG. 1) comprises a tank 1 comprising a cylindrical part 2 with a vertical axis 00 'surmounting a conical part 3 with the same axis. At the bottom of the conical part 3 is disposed a quick-drain evacuation system 4.
  • the tank 1 is provided with a cover 9 comprising a gas outlet pipe 10 provided with a ventilation and gas treatment system 11.
  • the rotor 12 is suspended by its upper end and its lower end comprising the rubbing parts 13 to be coated is located in the tank 1.
  • the cover 9 is in two parts and has a central opening 14 so as to be able to grip the rotor 12.
  • the rotor 12 has its axis coincident with the axis 00 '.
  • the half-rings have at one end a hinge 19 and at the other a locking means 20 for locking them together (see Figure 5).
  • Each half-shell 16 also comprises parallel tubes 21 to the axis 00 'joined by conduits 22 forming half-rings at the lower and upper part of the half-shells.
  • the upper conduits 22 surround the armatures 18 and are connected to them by ceramic insulators 23.
  • the tubes 21 and the pipes 22 are hollow and communicate with each other.
  • One of the pipes 22 is provided with an inlet 24 for compressed gas.
  • the upper pipes 22 on the one hand and the lower pipes on the other hand are connected by a flexible sleeve 25 (see FIG. 3).
  • the tubes 21 are provided with nozzles 26 sending compressed gas in a horizontal direction making an angle substantially equal to 45 ° with the direction connecting the nozzle to the axis 00 '.
  • the pipes 22 are also provided with nozzles 27. These nozzles 27 send compressed gas in a horizontal direction making an angle substantially equal to 45 ° with the direction connecting the nozzle considered to the axis 00 '.
  • the sheath 15 is fixed to the tank 1 by spokes 28 (see Figure 4).
  • the entire sheath accepts the axis 00 'as the axis of symmetry.
  • the anodes 17 are supplied with current by a current supply 29 and are made of metal to be deposited.
  • a temperature probe 30 is placed inside the tank 1 and is connected to a generator 31 which sends a current into an electric heating resistor 32 located at the bottom of the tank 1 when the temperature of the electrolyte deviates from 1 ° C compared to the set temperature.
  • a regeneration circuit 33 of the electrolyte bath Between the electrolyte evacuation system 4 and the supply inlets 7 is arranged a regeneration circuit 33 of the electrolyte bath, a pump and valve system 34 for injecting either continuously or intermittently of the regenerated electrolyte.
  • the anodes are chosen from this metal and the electrolyte is a conventional solution of chromic acid.
  • Certain sodium or calcium hydroxides can be added to it to form tetrachromate salts.
  • Chromic acid can be replaced by trivalent chromium salts, which simplifies the ventilation system.
  • the electrolyte tank After installing the rotor, the electrolyte tank is filled.
  • the bath is driven in a rotary movement of axis 00 '.
  • an alternating current for example a pulse of one second every twenty seconds alternately positive and negative of amplitude lower than the intensity of the direct current, one obtains a homogeneous deposit of trivalent chromium, of compatible hardness with the objectives, while improving performance and grip.
  • the chromium deposit will be between 150 and 200 ⁇ m after rectification. Finally, a degassing oven treatment (180-210 ° C) completes the operating range.
  • the rubbing parts to be coated can be either bristles of bearings as in FIG. 1 or bristles of stops (FIG. 6). In the latter case as in the case of FIG. 1, the anodes are arranged opposite the surfaces to be coated.
