Definitions
- the invention relates to a mask for electroplating the outer surface of a, consisting of an electrically conductive material body, according to the preamble of claim 1 and a method for producing the mask according to the preamble of claim.
- a device for galvanic surface treatment of a rotationally symmetrical workpiece which has two clamping parts which are movable relative to each other and between which a central part is clamped, via which the electrolytic process liquid enters and leaves the process chamber is discharged again.
- the process chamber is formed by two intermediate rings, between which an electrode is clamped whose inner diameter is greater than the outer diameter of the surface to be coated, so that the process chamber results between the surface to be coated and the inner surface of the electrode, wherein the intermediate rings of the two clamping parts held together.
- both the intermediate rings and the electrode are made of metal, so that complex measures for sealing the process chamber are required to prevent the very aggressive electrolyte from leaking from the process chamber.
- the known from the prior art device for galvanic surface treatment is very complicated, resulting in a significant increase in the cost of the coating process.
- the mask for coating a body which forms the process chamber together with the outer surface of the body to be coated, consists of an elastically yielding polymer, it is ensured that the process chamber is well sealed, and that the risk of the electrolyte liquid escaping from the Process chamber exits, is minimal.
- the mask of the invention using a prefabricated pipe system can be prepared very easily using a plastic casting.
- Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a mask for coating a
- FIG. 2 shows a section through the mask along the plane II in FIG. 1
- FIG. 3 shows a first embodiment of a pipe system arranged in the mask for passing the electrolyte required for coating
- FIG. 4 shows a second embodiment of the pipe system with an oval cross-section
- Fig. 5 shows a third embodiment of the pipe system with slot-shaped in cross-section inlet and outlet openings.
- Fig. 1 shows the perspective view of a mask 1 for coating a body of an electrically conductive material, such as a piston for an internal combustion engine, wherein the present embodiment of the mask 1 of the coating of the piston skirt is used.
- the mask 1 has a cut-segment-shaped, front-side recess 2, via which the mask 1 is applied to the piston, not shown in the figure such that a correspondingly shaped process chamber 3 covers exactly the area of the piston skirt, which are coated should.
- a respective mask 1 is applied to the piston shafts to be coated.
- FIG. 1 Shown in Fig. 1 are still terminals 4 and 5, via which a arranged in the mask 1 and shown in Fig. 3 pipe system 8 is connected to a vacuum pump.
- the further connections 6 and 10 are shown in Fig. 1, which connect the pipe system 8 with an electrolyte container.
- FIG. 1 shows inlet openings 7 which open into the process chamber 3 and via which an electrolyte is introduced into the process chamber 3.
- FIG. 2 shows a section through the mask 1 along the sectional plane II in FIG. 1, which illustrates that the process chamber 3 is formed as a window introduced into the rear wall 9 of the front recess 2, whose lower ledge has the inlet openings 7.
- the process chamber 3 is closed by a planar, segmented anode 11, wherein a rear side of the process chamber 3 arranged between the rear wall 9 and anode 11, circumferential seal 12 seals the process chamber 3 against a rear recess 13 of the mask 1.
- a similar, circumferential seal 14 is arranged so that a closed process chamber 3 results when the mask 1 is applied to the piston.
- the anode 11 is inserted into the rear-side recess 13 by being pressed into its final position shown in FIG. 2 with the aid of a closure piece 15 made of a dimensionally stable plastic material and fixed therein.
- the anode 11 has a back-welded threaded bolt 16, against which the positive pole of a DC voltage source, not shown in the figure, wherein in the context of coating a voltage applied to the process chamber 3 piston shaft of the negative pole of the DC voltage source is applied to the piston.
- one of the pipe systems 8, 20 shown in Figures 3, 4 and 5 is arranged, wherein the pipe system 8 except via the terminals 4 and 5 still on the other terminal 17 with the not shown in the figure Vacuum pump is connected.
- the pipe system 8 is also connected via the terminals 6 and 10 also via the terminal 18 with the electrolyte container.
- drain openings 19 which open into the process chamber 3 and are not shown in FIGS. 1 and 2.
- a piston stem to be coated adjoins the process chamber 3 in order to be coated with iron
- the positive pole of the DC voltage source and the negative pole of the DC voltage source are first connected to the anode 11 via its electrode 16.
- a vacuum is generated by the vacuum pump via the terminals 4, 5 and 17 in the pipe system 8 and in the process chamber 3, which causes suctioned via the terminals 6, 10 and 18 from the electrolyte container, not shown in the figures, an iron-containing electrolyte and is introduced via the inflow openings 7 in the process chamber 3.
- the iron-containing electrolyte flows past the piston skirt to be coated, with the DC voltage applied to the anode 11 and to the piston causing the iron to be separated from the electrolyte and applied to the piston skirt.
- the electrolyte is then pumped out of the process chamber 3 and via the ports 4, 5 and 17 from the entire pipe system 8 via the drain openings 19.
- the pipe system 8 is produced from a sintering material which is resistant to the electrolyte used, for example from a polyamide fine powder having a melting temperature above 180 ° C. Subsequently, the pipe system 8 is inserted into a casting mold for the mask 1 and coated with a polymer, in particular surrounded with a rubbery elastically yielding and resistant to the electrolyte used polyamide or polyimide. In the present embodiment, a readily castable silicone rubber with high tear strength and high tear strength is used for this purpose.
- the embodiment of the pipe system 20 cast into the mask 1 shown in FIG. 4 has inlet openings 21 opening into the process chamber 3 and drain openings 22 having an oval cross-section, which improves the flow behavior of the electrolyte and thus a more uniform distribution of the electrolyte and thus the iron coating on the piston skirt is achieved.
- a further improvement of the flow behavior and the distribution of the electrolyte and the iron coating on the piston skirt results when, according to FIG. 5, the electrolyte is introduced into the process chamber 3 via a single slot-shaped inlet opening 23 and pumped out of the process chamber 3 via a likewise slot-shaped outlet opening 24 becomes.
- the length of the inlet opening 23 and the outlet opening 24 corresponds approximately to the width of the process chamber third
