Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for the purification of metals after their processing at high temperatures, i. a device that eliminates the oxidation, staining or other phenomena that can cause high temperature processing such as welding and laser or plasma cutting of metals on the surface thereof.
  • the current state of the art knows a device which consists of a plug of glass fiber fabric, which is wrapped around the end of a beak-shaped electrode. This plug is soaked in an acidic solution based on phosphoric acid (81% by weight) and quinoline (0.01% by weight) and water, and then placed near the surface to be worked.
  • a current source with alternating current and low voltage is present, one conductor of which is connected to the mass of the workpiece and the other conductor to the metal body of the plug holder. This results in the solution of the conditions of an electrolytic cell, which removes the oxide or stains in a short time.
  • the acidic solution has a very high density, which is also required so that, when applied to vertical surfaces to be treated or to underside surfaces, it does not drip onto the operator or run down the wall.
  • the current state of the art also knows devices for the purification of metals with dilute acidic solutions - based on citric acid - which is continuously fed to the plug by means of an electric submersible pump installed in the acid tank.
  • This prior art can be improved in several ways in order to overcome the above drawbacks and to make the device safer and easier to use and to achieve a longer life of the graft.
  • the above technical problem is solved by the use of the following device: apparatus for cleaning metals with a plug of insulating material placed between the electrode and the metal to be cleaned, a low voltage alternating current source connected to the other electrode Metal, with an acidic solution impregnating the plug, the plug consisting of a tubular stocking or an insulating fabric band of thickness greater than 1 mm, characterized in that the material for insulating the electrode has been improved; the plug is made of polyetheretherketone fabric (tradename PEEK from Hoechst) and wrapped around the metal end of the beak-shaped electrode.
  • the above-mentioned polyetheretherketone fabric can also be used in the form of a felt.
  • the above-mentioned polyetheretherketone fabric can also be used in the form of a net, which is coated with a felt layer of any heat-resistant insulating material, which layer can be subsequently applied or provided directly in the production.
  • the above-mentioned fabric of polyetheretherketone may be coated with a felt layer, wherein this felt may consist of polyetheretherketone.
  • the said layer of felt is applied to the beak on the outside of the fabric layer of polyetheretherketone.
  • the above beak may consist of a metal body and a removable end of insulating material in the interior of which at least one metal body is located, which ends at the end surface of the beak and activates the electrolytic action.
  • the said interchangeable end of the beak metal material is coated on the side walls with insulating material, so that in the contact area with the beak body and the non-insulated end surface is given electrical continuity. This end face is provided with holes through which the acidic solution is passed.
  • the said insulating coating consists of a Teflon film with a thickness of 0.1 - 0.3 mm to protect against short circuits and from 0.6 to 1.2 mm for thermal insulation.
  • the material used for the beak ie both the body and the interchangeable metal end, can be selected from high-strength stainless steel.
  • the steel grade AISI 316 should preferably be used.
  • This invention offers the following advantages:
  • the supply of acid is done directly by the operator and as often as required; In this case, a very aggressive solution can be used, the loss of time for the impregnation of the prog is eliminated and no acid during transport from the container to the processing more can get lost.
  • the plug is better soaked with acid and thus heats up less or wears less due to thermomechanical stress.
  • the beak of the electrode can have a variety of shapes, which depend on the respective processing position; If the beak is cone-shaped, the sock can be changed more quickly.
  • the supply of the acidic solution inside the prion avoids that acid is spilled or gets to parts not to be cleaned.
  • Maximum life can be achieved by using a double layered plug having a fabric layer on the inside and a felt layer on the outside:
  • the inside fabric can be polyetheretherketone. With the polyetheretherketone fabric highest lifetime values can be achieved, as it has a very high resistance to heating and acids.
  • the outer felt layer of any suitable material maintains the solution at the cleaning site and allows for adaptation to the workpiece shape, thereby greatly increasing the life of the sock.
  • double polyetheretherketone layer ie both the fabric and the felt
  • maximum performance in terms of service life, work precision and quantity can be achieved.
  • the fact that the end of the beak is interchangeable makes it possible to make the beak of ordinary stainless steel, whereas the end can be made of special stainless steel, which is more expensive but less likely to wear. This results in an improvement of the efficiency of the cleaning process.

  • an acidic solution with relatively low proportions of phosphoric acid (52.5 weight percent) and quinoline (0.01 weight percent) in water is used: due to the dilution of this acidic solution as opposed to the high density of those previously used Solution, smaller volumes of solution are required, which are passed directly inside the stocking plug 12 or 54 or the prong 34 of the hollow beak 28, thereby avoiding the dripping of solution onto surrounding surfaces and resulting in relatively few and easily washable surfaces after brushing, which represents a cost advantage.
  • This solution is then conveyed continuously, so that the plug 12, 34 or 54 is constantly soaked.
  • the electrolytic action of the acid solution flowing through the stream is always constant, since the operator does not have to interrupt the work to moisten the plug, but only the push button 25, 38 or 47 to supply the solution on the handle 37, 45 must operate ,
  • the hydraulic circuit shown in Figure 3 works with a pump 16, which can be both designed as a manual pump and can be operated directly by the operator, this direct operation both by means of a
  • the tanks 17 or 27 should be made of insulating material which, from the instant at which the acidic solution is introduced, passes through the electrode into the interior of the tank Tension stands, as the acid column in the pipe conducts the tension up to the tank.
  • the pneumatic-hydraulic circuit shown in Figure 4 also works with a manual pump 22 which pressurizes the tank 23, and the further the solution gets to the beak by opening the valve 25, the more the pressure in the tank drops, whereby a new pressure generation by means of said pump 22 is required.
  • the maintenance of the pressure can be done automatically by a non-pictured pressure switch, which detects the pressure inside the above-mentioned tank.
  • the tubular sock 12, 54 of insulating fabric is assembled by placing the first end 20, 56 on the beak 11, 52 until it completely envelopes it.
  • the sock has twice the length so that it can be turned over, with the other end 21, 57 coming to lie exactly on the first end.
  • the clamp 13, 58 is placed so that it fixes both ends simultaneously on the body of the beak 11, 48.
  • This beak must be snapped with its frusto-conical end 29 on the frusto-conical portion 27 of the end 26 of the electrode.
  • the replacement is analogous, by the said beak completely removed and another beak is mounted.
  • the hollow beak with frusto-conical snap closure may be formed in various shapes, as in the beaks in the figures 12 and 13 can be seen or with a brush as shown in Figure 14.
  • the beaked latches close tightly between the pilot hole 60 and the arcuate electrode 46 to prevent leakage of acidic solution so that it is completely directed to the supply bore 59.
  • the beak can be provided with the flattened over the flattened tubular stocking that a much lower thickness is achieved than the normal beak 48.
  • the beaks may be formed instead of a latching connection with a screw connection.
  • the beak 63 formed with a brush 64 having bristles of insulating material 65 is employed by being moved in the longitudinal or transverse direction to the angle application weld, the bristles stiffened with a top layer of Teflon or other similar material occupying the bottom of the cavity between the wall and reach the weld and clean it completely.
  • the gun with the slots 36 for evacuating the gases and vapors allows the operator to work completely safely.
  • the extracted air containing the gases and vapors is passed through the wet filter 41, which is designed according to the products used for cleaning metal surfaces by treatment with acid.
  • the end 72 does not conduct electrical current, but does so through the heads of the screws 74, which are installed so that they are parallel to the end surface S of that end.
  • the electricity is from these Threaded heads on the soaked in acid solution stocking, whereby the electrolytic cleaning action arises.
  • the end 72 is non-conductive, it does not heat up due to the electrolytic action that the stocking applies to the surface to be cleaned, and consequently the stocking is not sustainably damaged by burns.
  • the operation of the electrode with body 78 with a brush of tubes 79 of insulating material is obtained by passing electrical current in the acidic solution from said metal body 78 to the surface of the cavity to be cleaned, also reaching the innermost portions of this cavity.
  • the plug 91 reinforced with double-layer fabric 92,93, whose outer layer of felt 93 is improved, is put on by wrapping the beak end and fixing the plug with a fixing ring 96.
  • the plug does not necessarily have to have a perfect overlap, but the middle part of this plug must cover the active face 102 of the metallic end 98, since it is preferably made as a Teflon film with a thickness of 0.6 - 1.2 mm Insulating coating 100 avoids electrolytic action on the flanks of the end, whereas completely uncoated side 102 is completely exposed to the action.
  • the end can, even if this is less recommended, even with a thin layer of insulating material, such as a Teflon film coated with 0.1 - 0.3 mm thickness, which also protects it from damage and short circuits on the flanks, as is the case for the body of the beak 97 with the coating 101.
  • insulating material such as a Teflon film coated with 0.1 - 0.3 mm thickness
  • maximum life is achieved for the double-layer plug 91 when polyetheretherketone is used in the inner fabric layer 92 and a polyetheretherketone-based felt is used in the outer layer 93.
  • the double-layered tape can be made by subsequently joining the two layers or by applying one layer to the other directly during manufacture.
  • the worn plug can be easily replaced by removing the fixing ring 96 and replacing the ribbon at the end of the beak.
  • the ring 96 of insulating material can be used several times. After the provided with a thick or less thick insulating layer 100 metallic end 98 is worn and the cleaning function can not provide as desired, it is replaced by removing the screws 99.
  • the highest lifetime values for the metallic beak end are achieved by AISI 316 stainless steel; Although the costs are lower for all other stainless steels, the wear is greater. In the prior art, the technical problem of wear of the electrode was not due to the low power. With these devices, however, only very low efficiencies could be achieved.
