Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen leichtgewichtigen Formkörper aus Metallschaum bestehend aus einer Metallmatrix, in welche Partikel eingelagert sind und welche eine Vielzahl von im wesentlichen sphärischen und/oder im wesentlichen ellipsoiden Hohlräumen umschließt.The invention relates to a lightweight molded body of metal foam consisting of a metal matrix, in which particles are embedded and which encloses a plurality of substantially spherical and / or substantially ellipsoidal cavities.
Formkörper aus Metallschaum besitzen naturgemäß eine geringe Dichte und weisen strukturbedingt besondere mechanische Materialeigenschaften auf. Beispielsweise können derartigen Körpern bei Aufbringung von zwei- oder dreidimensionalen Druckspannungen große Verformungen mit Stauchgraden bis 70 % und mehr erteilt werden. Diese Werkstoffe mit Sondereigenschaften sind in der technologischen Anwendung, beispielsweise als Energieabsorber in der Automobiltechnik und dergleichen, mit Vorteil einsetzbar.Molded metal foam naturally have a low density and, due to the structure, have special mechanical material properties. For example, such bodies can be given large deformations with upsetting degrees of up to 70% and more when applying two- or three-dimensional compressive stresses. These materials with special properties are in the technological application, for example as an energy absorber in automotive technology and the like, can be used with advantage.

Ein anderer leichtgewichtiger Metallkörper weist gemäß
Zur Herstellung verschiedener Formen von aus Metallschaum gebildeten Leichtkörpern sind bereits eine Anzahl von sequenziell (
Es ist Aufgabe der Erfindung, einen gattungsgemäßen Formkörper zu schaffen, dessen Aufbau ein weitgehend präzises Verformungsverhalten in Abhängigkeit von der angelegten, insbesondere mehrdimensionalen, Druckspannng aufweist.It is an object of the invention to provide a generic molding whose structure has a largely precise deformation behavior as a function of the applied, in particular multi-dimensional, Druckspannng.
Diese Aufgabe der Erfindung, insbesondere im Hinblick auf ein gewünschtes Werkstoffverhalten bei mechanischer Belastung, wird dadurch gelöst, daß der Metallschaum des Formkörpers bei räumlicher Betrachtung eine monomodale Verteilung der maximalen Längserstreckungen der Hohlräume im Bereich zwischen 1,0 und 30,0 mm aufweist.This object of the invention, in particular with regard to a desired material behavior under mechanical stress, is achieved in that the metal foam of the molding has a monomodal distribution of the maximum longitudinal extent of the cavities in the range between 1.0 and 30.0 mm when viewed spatially.
Die Vorteile eines so gestalteten leichtgewichtigen Formkörpers aus Metallschaum sind im wesentlichen dadurch begründet, daß, wie vorhin bereits ansatzweise dargelegt, im Hinblick auf die Knotenausbildung der Wandungen der Gasblasen durch eine Monomodalität günstige Verhältnisse erreicht werden. Bei einer bimodalen, poly- oder multimodalen Verteilung der Hohlräumgröße liegen in den Wandknoten zumeist Verdickungen mit gegebenenfalls kleinen und/oder sehr kleinen Poren sowie Lunkerungänzen vor, was einerseits das spezifische Gewicht des Schaumkörpers erhöht und den Metallaufwand zur Bildung desselben vergrößert, andererseits die Aufteilung der Kraftkomponenten stören kann, wodurch eine Wandflächenknickung bei Belastung nicht eindeutig bestimmbar ist.The advantages of a so-shaped lightweight molded body made of metal foam are essentially due to the fact that, as already stated in the beginning, favorable conditions are achieved with regard to the knot formation of the walls of the gas bubbles by a monomodality. In a bimodal, poly- or multimodal distribution of the cavities size are in the wall node mostly thickening with possibly small and / or very small pores and Lunkerungänzen ago, which on the one hand the specific gravity of the foam body increases and increases the cost of metal to form the same, on the other hand can interfere with the division of the force components, whereby a Wandflächenknickung is not clearly determined under load.
Die erfindungsgemäßen Vorteile der Auswirkung der Wirkungsmechanismen bei der Komponentenaufteilung der Druckkräfte können verstärkt werden, wenn zumindest teilweise die Hohlräume einschließenden Begrenzungswände ebenflächige Bereiche aufweisen.The advantages according to the invention of the effect of the action mechanisms in the component distribution of the compressive forces can be enhanced if at least partially enclosing the cavities enclosing walls planar areas.
Wenn, wie weiters in günstiger Weise vorgesehen sein kann, bei räumlicher Betrachtung des Metallschaumes das Verhältnis der maximalen Längserstreckungen zweier jeweils verschiedener Hohlräume im Mittel Ober zumindest 20 Paare kleiner als 45 ist, sind weitgehend enge Belastungsbereiche, in welchen ein Kollabieren der SchaumHohlräume beginnt, erreichbar.If, as may further be provided in a favorable manner, in spatial consideration of the metal foam, the ratio of the maximum longitudinal extents of two different cavities on average at least 20 pairs is less than 45, are largely narrow load ranges, in which a collapse of the foam cavities begins to reach ,
Dabei kann die Genauigkeit des Überganges von einer elastischen Formänderung in ein plastisches Verformen des Werkstoffes in Abhängigkeit von der Druckspannung weiter erhöht werden, wenn bei räumlicher Betrachtung des Metallschaumes das Verhältnis der maximalen Längserstreckungen zweier jeweils verschiedener Hohlräume im Mittel über zumindest 20 Paare kleiner als 30, vorzugsweise kleiner als 15 und insbesondere kleiner als 5, ist. Diese Werte beziehen sich auf erstellte Hohlräume bei Außerachtlassung von Erstarrungslunkern im Formkörper.In this case, the accuracy of the transition from an elastic deformation in a plastic deformation of the material as a function of the compressive stress can be further increased if, viewed spatially of the metal foam, the ratio of the maximum longitudinal extent of two different cavities on average over at least 20 pairs less than 30, preferably less than 15 and in particular less than 5, is. These values refer to created cavities, ignoring solidification voids in the molding.
Ebenso erheblich für eine Metallschaumherstellung und für das Verhalten des Formkörpers bei mechanischer Belastung ist die Zusammensetzung und der Aufbau des Flüssigmetalles und jenes bzw. jener der Begrenzungswände der Hohlräume.Equally important for a metal foam production and for the behavior of the molded article under mechanical stress is the composition and structure of the liquid metal and that or those of the boundary walls of the cavities.
Wenn die Partikel zur Armierung in der Metallmatrix gleichmäßig verteilt eingelagert sind, ist eine hohe und isotrope Verstärkung des Basismetalles im Hinblick auf die mechanische Belastung gegeben. Dabei ist es auch günstig, wenn aneinander angrenzende Hohlräume durch die Metallmatrix vollständig voneinander getrennt sind. Einzelne Risse, die durch mechanische Spannungen beim Abkühlen entstehen können, sind bei Stauchbelastungen nicht wirksam.If the particles are embedded uniformly distributed in the metal matrix for reinforcement, there is a high and isotropic reinforcement of the base metal with regard to the mechanical stress. It is also advantageous if adjoining cavities are completely separated from one another by the metal matrix. Individual cracks, which can be caused by mechanical stress during cooling, are not effective for compression loads.
Besonders leichte Formkörper sind per se erfindungsgemäß erstellbar, wenn die Metallmatrix aus einem Leichtmetall, vorzugsweise aus Aluminium oder einer Aluminiumlegierung, besteht.Particularly light shaped articles can be produced per se according to the invention if the metal matrix consists of a light metal, preferably of aluminum or an aluminum alloy.
Wenn weiters die in der Metallmatrix eingelagerten Partikel eine Größe von 1 bis 50 um, vorzugsweise 3 bis 20 µm, aufweisen, ist ein besonders vorteilhaftes Gewicht/Eigenschaft- Verhältnis erreichbar.Furthermore, if the particles incorporated in the metal matrix have a size of 1 to 50 μm, preferably 3 to 20 μm, a particularly advantageous weight / property ratio can be achieved.
Als Armierung bzw. Verstärkung des Grundmetalles für eine Schäumung und Verfestigung desselben bzw. für einen Aufbau von knickungsverstärkten Blasentrennwänden haben sich Einlagerungen von nichtmetallischen Partikeln, vorzugsweise SiC- Partikeln und/oder Al2O3- Partikeln und/oder solche aus intermetallischen Phasen als unerwartet günstig erwiesen.As reinforcement or reinforcement of the base metal for a foaming and solidification of the same or for a structure of kinkungsverstärkten bladder walls have inclusions of non-metallic particles, preferably SiC particles and / or Al 2 O 3 - particles and / or those of intermetallic phases as unexpected proved favorable.
Als besonders vorteilhaft hat es sich dabei herausgestellt, wenn der Volumsanteil der eingelagerten Partikel in der Metallmatrix zwischen 10 Vol.-% und 30 Vol.-%, vorzugsweise zwischen 15 Vol.-% und 30 Vol.-%, betragt.It has proven to be particularly advantageous if the volume fraction of the incorporated particles in the metal matrix is between 10% by volume and 30% by volume, preferably between 15% by volume and 30% by volume.
Das günstige Gewicht/Eigenschaft- Verhältnis eines leichtgewichtigen Formkörpers der erfindungsgemäßen Art kann gesteigert werden, wenn die Dichte des Metallschaumes weniger als 1,05 g/cm3, vorzugsweise weniger als 0,7 g/cm3, insbesondere weniger als 0,3 g/cm3, beträgt.The favorable weight / property ratio of a lightweight molded article of the type according to the invention can be increased if the density of the metal foam is less than 1.05 g / cm 3 , preferably less than 0.7 g / cm 3 , in particular less than 0.3 g / cm 3 , is.
Ein erfindungsgemäßer leichtgewichtiger Formkörper wird hergestellt mit einem Verfahren, bei welchem aus einer Partikel aufweisenden Metallschmelze durch Einbringen von Gas oder Gasgemischen in diese ein Metallschaum gebildet, dieser zumindest teilweise in eine Kokille eingebracht und dessen flüssige Phase in dieser erstarren gelassen wird und ein fließfähiger Metalischaum mit einer monomodalen Verteilung der Abmessung der Hohlräume und einer anteilsmäßig maximalen Längserstreckung derselben im Bereich zwischen 1,0 und 30,0 mm hergestellt, in eine Gießforrn oder Kokille eingebracht und in dieser im wesentlichen unter allseitigem Druck verdichtet wird, wobei den die Hohlräume einschließenden Partikel beinhaltenden Metallschmelzen-Begrenzungswänden zumindest teilweise ebenflächige Bereiche erteilt werden und die Erstarrungswarme der Schmelze abgeführt wird. Damit wird die innere Körperstruktur derart ausgebildet, daß der Werkstoff im wesentlichen genaue mechanische Kennwerte besitzt.A lightweight molded article according to the invention is produced by a method in which a molten metal having a particle formed by introducing gas or gas mixtures into this, at least partially introduced into a mold and its liquid phase is solidified in this and a flowable metal foam with a monomodal distribution of the dimension of the cavities and a proportionately maximum longitudinal extent of the same in the range between 1.0 and 30.0 mm made, placed in a Gießforrn or mold and compacted therein in substantially under all-round pressure, wherein the cavities enclosing particles containing Metal melt boundary walls at least partially planar areas are granted and the solidification heat of the melt is dissipated. Thus, the inner body structure is formed such that the material has substantially accurate mechanical characteristics.
Die monomodale Verteilung der Abmessung der Hohlräume im Metallschaum erbringt eine Voraussetzung für ein Werkstoffverhalten bei bestimmten Spannungszustanden. Dabei ist der anteilsmäßig maximale Durchmesser der Hohlräume wichtig für die Höhe der Elastizitätsgrenze des Werkstoffes und die ertragbare spezifische Oberflächenbelastung bei einer Druckspannungsbeaufschlagung des Teiles.The monomodal distribution of the dimensions of the cavities in the metal foam provides a prerequisite for a material behavior at certain stress states. The proportional maximum diameter of the cavities is important for the height the elastic limit of the material and the tolerable specific surface load at a Druckspannungsbeaufschlagung of the part.
Um in den Begrenzungswänden zumindest teilweise ebenflächige Bereiche zu erstellen, ist eine im wesentlichen allseitige, gegebenenfalls geringe Druckbelastung des fließfähigen Schaumes erforderlich, woraus sich mehrere Vorteile ergeben können. Von besonderer Wichtigkeit ist jedoch jener, daß derart die Begrenzungwände und deren Knotenbereiche im Schaummaterial für eine mechanische Stütz- oder Knickbelastung günstig eingestellt bzw. geformt werden. Dadurch ist erreichbar, daß bei einem Oberschreiten einer definierten Spannungsgrenze ein Einknicken der Schaumwandungen bzw. ein Kollabieren der Poren und ein Energieabsorbieren mit hohen Verformungs- bzw. Stauchgraden bei geringer Verfestigung des Leichtkörpers erfolgt.To create at least partially planar areas in the boundary walls, a substantially all-sided, optionally low pressure load of the flowable foam is required, resulting in several advantages. Of particular importance, however, is that such that the boundary walls and their node areas in the foam material for a mechanical support or buckling load are set or formed low. As a result, it can be achieved that in the case of an upper limit of a defined stress limit buckling of the foam walls or collapse of the pores and energy absorption take place with high degrees of deformation or upsetting while the lightweight body is solidified.
Sowohl für eine in engen Grenzen herstellbare monomodale Verteilung der Abmessung der Hohlräume als auch für eine genaue Einstellung des anteilsmäßig maximalen Durchmessers der Hohlräume im Schaummaterial hat es sich als besonders vorteilhaft herausgestellt, wenn zur Ausbildung der monomodalen Verteilung der Abmessung der Hohlräume das Gas durch mindestens ein in die Schmelze vorspringend einragendes Eintragsrohr mit geringer Stirnflache eingebracht wird.Both for a monomodal distribution of the dimensions of the cavities which can be produced within narrow limits and for an accurate adjustment of the proportionately maximum diameter of the cavities in the foam material, it has proved to be particularly advantageous if the gas is introduced through at least one to form the monomodal distribution of the dimensions of the cavities in the melt projecting einragendes entry pipe is introduced with a small frontal area.
Fertigungstechnisch, aber auch hinsichtlich der Erzeugnisgüte kann es günstig sein, wenn die Verdichtung des fließfähigen Metallschaumes in einer Kokille mit Innenmaßen, die den gewünschten Abmessungen des Formkörpers entsprechen, durchgeführt wird.Manufacturing technology, but also in terms of product quality, it may be beneficial if the compression of the flowable metal foam in a mold with internal dimensions that correspond to the desired dimensions of the molding is performed.
Anhand von bei einer Materialerprobung angefertigten Bildern und Diagrammen soll die Erfindung näher dargelegt werden.On the basis of images and diagrams made in a material testing the invention will be explained in more detail.
