Definitions

  • the invention relates to a composite body and a method for producing a mechanical connection according to the preambles of the independent claims.
  • those composite bodies or those production methods are addressed which are suitable for applications which are intended to be vacuum-tight, for example lamps, in particular flash lamps.
  • Fig. La shows the vacuum-tight passage of a wire 10 through a glass wall 15.
  • the wire is preloaded, indicated by the dashed contour 16. Then it is melted into a glass tube end (Fig. La) or in a glass plate (Fig. Lb).
  • Glass and metal are chosen so that their thermal expansion coefficient has a similar course from melting point to cooling ("full adaptation"). However, if this full adjustment is not possible, stress cracks in the glass or detachment of the wire from the glass can occur. If the mismatch between the two is too great for a direct melting of the metal into the glass, as shown in FIG.
  • the stress can be absorbed in stages by intermediate glasses 17 a to 17 c and / or by a dome geometry 17 d.
  • Fig. 1d shows the so-called “cutting glazing”
  • Fig. Le shows the "foil crushing”.
  • the metal partner 11, 13 is so thin that it can absorb any deformations that may occur, so that no dangerous stresses occur in the glass.
  • Fig. Lf shows the principle of "pressure glazing".
  • Wire 10 and metal plate 12 have a somewhat higher coefficient of expansion than the melting glass 15. However, no stress cracks occur in the glass part 15, because after melting the metal 12 shrinks onto the glass 15 and thereby generates a compressive stress.
  • Fig. Lg shows an embodiment in which a metallic cap 11 is glued to a glass tube 15 by means of an epoxy adhesive 18.
  • FIG. 1h shows the connection of two glass parts 15, 14 by means of indium 19.
  • the composite bodies shown in FIG. 1 have one or more of the following disadvantages:
  • DE-AS 2150092 discloses a method for connecting glass or ceramic to metals.
  • An aluminum-containing copper alloy with an aluminum oxide-containing surface layer is used as the metal.
  • Disadvantages of this approach are the low ductility and thus poor resistance to temperature changes as well as the insufficient bond between glass and metal due to the aluminum oxide.
  • DE-AS 2018752 discloses a method for the gas-tight connection of metal and glass surfaces.
  • the process works in temperature ranges below the melting point of the metal and presses the surfaces to be joined against each other under high pressure.
  • the disadvantage of the method is that it leads to inadequate connection results and can only be used with comparatively simple geometries. The resistance to temperature changes is low.
  • a seal between ceramic and metallic objects is known from DE 3827318A1.
  • a composite sealing element made of metal with aluminum as the main component is provided with a coating of another metal. The metal is then brought into contact with the other components and heated above the melting point.
  • Disadvantages are the cumbersome production, the lack of shape flexibility and the low ductility at the interface, which leads to a deterioration in the resistance to temperature changes.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a composite body which has a firm, durable, temperature change-resistant and vacuum-tight connection and which is inexpensive to manufacture, and to provide a method for producing a mechanical connection with which a composite body having the above properties can be produced. This object is achieved with the features of the independent claims. Dependent claims are directed on preferred embodiments of the invention.
  • a composite body in the sense of this invention has at least a first useful part and a connection.
  • the connection can also be designed as a plug in an opening or a pipe end.
  • the first product is made of glass, the connection is aluminum in a comparatively pure form. The connection has melted onto the glass.
  • the composite body according to the invention is a preferably one-piece, hollow glass body which is closed by the connection, preferably vacuum-tight.
  • Aluminum has proven to be a metal, the oxide of which dissolves in glasses, in particular silicate glasses, in certain temperature ranges and thus leads to an intimate mechanical connection. This solubility of the oxides in silicate glasses can also be found for other metals (Mg, Zn, Cd, In, Tl, Sn, Pb, Sb, Bi, Mn).
  • Aluminum has advantages over them in that it is inexpensive even in high purity, it conducts electricity and heat very well, it is very ductile, it adheres particularly well to silicate glasses (soft glasses, hard glasses such as borosilicate and aluminosilicate glasses, quartz glass), at the melting point has very low vapor pressure, is resistant to the atmosphere, adheres well to all technical metals, is non-toxic, has a favorable temperature processing range and can be wetted directly with soft solder.

  • a comparatively high coefficient of expansion 26 • 10 "6 / ° C for Alumini - um, 9 • 10 '6 / ° C for soft glasses, 4 • 10 "6 / ° C for hard glasses, 0.5 • 10 " 6 / ° C for quartz glass.

  • the aluminum content in the connecting material is preferably above 99% by weight, more preferably above 99
  • the manufacturing process for the composite body is therefore such that a possible aluminum oxide layer on the aluminum of the compound 20 is removed before it is connected to the glass 15 of the useful part, and then the aluminum of the compound heated to the melting point 20 is brought into contact with the glass with its surface cleaned of oxides.
  • the aluminum can react with the constituents of the glass, in particular by reducing Si0 2 of the glass and the oxygen released in this way combines with aluminum to form A1 2 0 3 .
  • the oxide formed in this way can then diffuse into the glass as mentioned above and contribute to the intimate bond.
  • process parameters can be set so that the described type of oxide formation and oxide diffusion are favored. If necessary, further measures described below can be taken. In particular, several or all of the above-mentioned process steps can be carried out in a protective gas atmosphere or in a vacuum.

  • connection is preferably established in such a way that the material of the connection is spatially brought into the area of the first useful part in which the connection is to be formed later. Then the connecting material is heated together with the one or more useful parts until at least the aluminum is liquefied. It then enters into the intimate connection with the glass described above.
