Description

  • The invention relates to a method for lubricating a metal wire in a soap box prior to drawing the wire through a wire drawing device for reducing the diameter of said wire, wherein said soap box comprises a container with a wire inlet and a wire outlet at two opposite ends of container, a wire feed device arranged to transport the wire through said container, said method comprising supplying lubricant into said container such that it partially fills said container and simultaneously distributing said lubricant in the container and transporting said wire through said container wherein said lubricant is a lubricating liquid and said method further comprises providing a multitude of liquid carrying bodies in said container.
  • A method for lubricating a metal wire in a soap box prior to drawing the wire through a wire drawing device for reducing the diameter of said wire is described in GB-A-795462 . The wire typically is a steel wire used to produce a reinforcing bar for reinforced concrete, and needs to undergo a diameter reduction (for instance from 8½ mm to 8 mm) in order to get its strength. The wire to be drawn in the wire drawing device needs to be lubricated in order to facilitate the subsequent passage through the diameter reduction die. In the known method the wire is lubricated by putting dry soap powder in the soap box container and the container is then vibrated such that the soap powder is put in motion around the wire and thereby adheres to the wire.
  • The drawback of this known method is that the dry soap powder is difficult to contain in the soap box and will escape from the device, thereby polluting the environment of the device with fine soap dust. This is detrimental for the health of people and causes failure of the device itself or other devices around it.
  • EP-A1-0 013 013 , which forms the basis for the preamble of claims 1 and 6, discloses a method for coating and drying of liquid lubricants onto the surface of metallic materials being subjected to cold working, especially of lubricants consisting of an organic solvent and solid or semi-solid lubricating substance, where the material to be worked is carried via openings through a closed coating vessel, which is a part of a closed lubricant circuit, and subsequently through a drying channel, wherein the material to be worked, which is heated by preceding working processes or by means of an external source for the transfer of heat or energy, is directly lead through the coating vessel without internal transport rollers, where excess lubricant overflowing from the openings is collected without any contact with ambient air; and air with a turbulence and/or pressure gradient intentionally generated inside the channel is sucked or blown through the drying channel, and from which, in the case of its enrichment by organic solvent vapours, the solvent is recovered.
  • The invention aims at a more efficient, effective, healthy and/or safe method for lubricating a metal wire.
  • To that end said method further comprises simultaneously distributing said liquid carrying bodies with said lubricating liquid and transporting said wire through said container.
  • By using a liquid lubricant, the problem of soap powder dust escaping from the device is solved in an efficient manner. By adding the lubricating bodies an efficient transfer of the soap to the wire is achieved.
  • Preferably said lubricating liquid is an aqueous solution of between 10% and 40%, preferably between 15% and 25% by weight soap, preferably a lime based soap.
  • Preferably said liquid carrying bodies are granules, grains or spheres, having a preferred average diameter between 3 and 12 mm, more preferably between 4 and 9 mm, and preferably made of a ceramic or plastic material.
  • The invention also relates to a soap box for lubricating a metal wire prior to drawing the wire through a wire drawing device for reducing the diameter of said wire, wherein said soap box comprises a container with a wire inlet and a wire outlet at two opposite ends of container, a wire feed device arranged to transport the wire through said container, lubricant supply means arranged to supply lubricant into said container such that it partially fills said container, and lubricant distributing means arranged to distribute said lubricant in the container while said wire feed device transports said wire through said container, wherein said lubricant supply means are arranged to supply a lubricating liquid into said container. According to the invention said lubricant distributing means are arranged to distribute liquid carrying bodies with said lubricating liquid in said container. During use said container is partially filled with a multitude of said lubricating liquid and preferably said liquid carrying bodies.
  • Said lubricant supply means preferably comprise a lubricant vessel, a supply tube between said lubricant vessel and said container, and a pump arranged to pump said liquid lubricant into said container. Said lubricant supply means preferably further comprises a feed back tube between said container and said lubricant vessel and a filter arranged to clean said lubricant from impurities.
  • Said wire feed device is preferably arranged to transport said wire in a substantially horizontal or in a diagonal direction, and said lubricant distributing means are arranged to distribute said liquid carrying bodies substantially within a space formed by two narrowly spaced apart parallel vertical planes at both sides of said wire. In this manner the effectiveness of the process is improved.
  • In a first preferred embodiment said lubricant distributing means comprise an Archimedean screw arranged to lift said liquid carrying bodies and drop and/or push and/or throw them on said wire.
  • In a second preferred embodiment said lubricant distributing means comprise vibrating means arranged to vibrate said container, such that said liquid carrying bodies are put in motion around said wire inside said container. Said vibrating means preferably comprise a vibrating motor and springs attached to said container. The vibrating means are preferably arranged such that said container is vibrated in vertical direction and the bottom of said container is formed such that said liquid carrying bodies are thrown towards said wire thereby.
  • In a third preferred embodiment said lubricant distributing means comprise a rotatable bottom part having a conical shape and a vertical rotation axis and a motor arranged to rotate said conical shaped bottom part around said axis, such that the lubricant is forced upward against the conical wall into the container.
  • Said container may be a rotatable cylindrical drum having said wire inlet and said wire outlet at both central axial opposite ends, and said lubricant distributing means comprise a motor arranged to rotate said drum around said wire. Said drum is preferably provided with axial ribs on its inner cylindrical surface, said ribs being formed such that said liquid carrying bodies are dropped substantially within a space formed by two narrowly spaced apart parallel vertical planes onto said wire while said drum is being rotated.
