Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for removing production residues from passages in workpieces by means of a fluid, each passage being completely flooded with fluid and a pressure acting on the fluid in the passage creating a flow of the fluid in the passage.
  • the company DÜRR Aktiengesellschaft has developed the so-called dip-flooding of workpieces for residue removal in passes, in which the workpiece is placed in a flood chamber which is filled with about 300 liters of washing liquid.
  • a flood chamber which is filled with about 300 liters of washing liquid.
  • fluid jets are directed in a pulse-like manner with flow velocities of up to 45 m / s onto the passages of the workpiece with the aid of a nozzle system Remove residues from the passageways.
  • the pressure buildup causes a deformation and detachment of trapped chips.
  • the removal of the residues is often unsatisfactory, since the nozzle jet impinges only on partial surfaces of the passage. Concealed surfaces in the passages that are not directly accessible to the jet can not be effectively cleaned.
  • the efficiency of the residue removal is further reduced by the fact that the incident jet, especially at irregularly shaped passages, such as overflow or cooling channels in cylinder blocks, is reflected several times.
  • the invention is based on the object to provide a method of the type mentioned above, which enables improved removal of manufacturing residues from passages of workpieces, especially in passages with undercuts and / or bottlenecks at lower power requirements.
  • a device for carrying out the method is to be proposed.
  • This object is achieved in a method of the type mentioned in that initially flooded each passage and then a negative pressure on the fluid is brought into effect.
  • the further improvement of the removal of manufacturing residues is achieved by first flooding each passage and then bringing the negative pressure preferably abruptly on the fluid to the effect.
  • the resulting negative pressure impact with a negative pressure of up to -0.7 bar, preferably -0.5 bar leads to an effective replacement of the manufacturing residues and their removal from the passage.
  • the negative pressure is abruptly brought to effect, for example, that at least one switching element, in particular one or more valves each flooded passage is brought into conductive communication with a vacuum source, in particular a vacuum container.
  • a vacuum source in particular the vacuum tank already acts the full negative pressure, which is fully effective immediately by opening each switching element in the flooded passages.
  • the connection between the passages and the vacuum source via fluid lines and possibly adapter for connecting the pipes to the passages.
  • a negative pressure acts on the fluid, which generates a flow of the fluid in the passage from the constriction in the direction of the extension of the passage.
  • the production residues are thus effectively removed from the bottleneck in the direction of the expansion, so that blockages are avoided.
  • the power requirement for residue removal when using Underpressure less than using a positive pressure acting on the fluid in the passage.
  • each passage is completely flooded with fluid and, by pressure acting on the fluid in the passage, a flow of the fluid in each passage is created.
  • a fluid is particularly suitable water. A temperature increase of the water is not required. It can with ambient temperature of e.g. 22 ° C are used.
  • the residue removal is further improved by acting on the flowing fluid, a pulsating negative pressure.
  • the pulsation causes a setting of the manufacturing residues dissolved by the flowing fluid and thus a blockage of the passage at bottlenecks and / or undercuts is prevented.
  • An advantageous device for carrying out the method is characterized in that the device has a fluid container for receiving a workpiece in the fluid, the workpiece has at least one passage with two outlet openings and a fluid line is connected to one of the outlet openings of each passage, which are connected to means for generating a negative pressure in the fluid line.
  • the fluid container is dimensioned so that the workpiece is completely absorbed by this and its passages are completely flooded with fluid.
  • the fluid line connected to a vacuum generator generates the flow in the fully flooded passage.
  • the fluid line end of an adapter In order to bring the full power of the vacuum generator in the passages of the workpiece to act, the fluid line end of an adapter, the edge of which surrounds the outlet opening and sealingly rests on the surface of the workpiece. This ensures that the full suction power of the vacuum generator is coupled into the fluid flowing through the passage where it is converted into flow energy of the fluid.
  • the means for generating a negative pressure preferably comprise a vacuum container for receiving the fluid which passes from the fluid container through the passages via the fluid lines in the vacuum vessel, wherein the vacuum container above the maximum fluid level connected to a vacuum pump.
  • at least one switching valve is disposed in the fluid lines between the vacuum container and the adapters.
  • the device for carrying out the method according to the invention has a fluid container (1) for receiving a workpiece (2) in the fluid.
  • the workpiece (2) is, for example, a cylinder head of a four-cylinder in-line engine with four cylinder bores and surrounding coolant channels having undercuts.
  • a respective fluid line (3) is connected; the fluid lines are connected to means for generating a negative pressure in the fluid lines (3).
  • ends the fluid lines (3) each have an adapter (4) which is adapted to the workpiece (2).
  • the edge of the adapter (4) surrounds the various outlet openings of the passages and lies sealingly on the surface of the workpiece (2).
  • the fluid lines (3) converge in a collecting line (5), which is connected to a vacuum container (6) for receiving the fluid. Above the maximum fluid level of the vacuum container (6), this is connected to a vacuum pump designated overall by (7).
  • a switching valve (8a) In the manifold (5) is located between the fluid lines (3) and the vacuum tank (6), a switching valve (8a).
  • a return line (9) between the vacuum container (6) and a storage container (10) another switching valve (8b).
  • the storage container (10) opens the return line (9) in a coarse filter (11).
  • the cleaned fluid passes from the feed tank (10) via a supply pump (12), a fine filter (13) via the return line (14) back into the fluid container (1) for receiving the workpiece (2).
  • the device works as follows:
  • Each passage in the workpiece (2) is completely flooded with the fluid when placed in the fluid in the fluid container (1).
  • a negative pressure is built up by means of the vacuum pump (7).
  • opening the switching valve (8a) in the manifold (5) of the negative pressure prevailing in the vacuum container (6) in the fluid lines (3) is suddenly effective.
  • the production residues entrained thereby by the flow pass over the fluid line (s) (3) as well as the collecting line (5) when the switching valve (8a) is open and closed Change-over valve (8b) in the vacuum tank (6).
  • the vacuum pump (7) is deactivated, so that via the open switching valve (8b) loaded with the residues fluid from the vacuum tank (6) via the return line (9) and the coarse filter (11) in the storage container (10 ). From there, the fluid with the aid of the supply pump (12) via a fine filter (13) and the return line (14) after removal of the residues to the fluid container (1) again supplied.
