Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a batch carrier for the defined arrangement of processed objects, wherein the batch carrier has as components at least one supporting grid with a plurality of receiving elements for receiving the objects, wherein the receiving elements are connected via a plug-in connection form-fitting with the supporting grid.
  • Batch carriers of the type mentioned are used for example as facilities for the temporary arrangement of workpieces during a temperature treatment.
  • the batch carriers are used to hold objects which are annealed in vacuum or gas stoves.
  • the batch carrier is subject to a correspondingly high temperature stress, so that the known charge carriers are made of materials that are both low distortion and on the other hand have a high temperature resistance.
  • Materials which have thus become established for such batch carriers are in particular graphite, carbon fiber reinforced carbon (CFC) or even ceramic materials, such as Oxide ceramics or, in particular, also oxide-ceramic composite materials, such as, for example, so-called "OXOX” materials, which have oxide ceramic fibers embedded in an oxide-ceramic matrix.
  • a charge carrier of the aforementioned type which has a plurality of receiving grids arranged on receiving elements, wherein the receiving elements are designed as ceramic rods, which are arranged in transversely to the round rods, provided with grooves grooves of the supporting grid.
  • DE 203 19 600 U relates to a workpiece carrier composed of a base plate and at least two workpiece holders, consisting of a temperature-resistant fiber-reinforced ceramic for heat-treating workpieces arranged at intervals thereon.
  • the two parts of the workpiece holder are made of relatively inexpensive plate material and plugged into one another in a simple manner. By rotating the workpiece holder by about 90 ° about its longitudinal axis it is clamped against the base plate (bayonet lock).
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object to provide a batch carrier, which allows a defined arrangement of the objects and yet allows easy adaptation of the support grid to differently shaped objects.
  • the charge carrier according to the invention has the features of claim 1.
  • the receiving elements are designed as adapters for the isolated positioning of the objects, wherein the adapters for the positioned arrangement are accommodated in adapter receptacles of the supporting grid.
  • the inventively designed batch carrier therefore allows a two-fold positioning of the objects on the supporting grid, such that for a positioning of the objects takes place relative to the adapters, and on the other positioning of the adapter relative to the supporting grid by the arrangement of the adapter takes place in the adapter receptacles.
  • the charge carrier according to the invention has the particular advantage that by combining adapters with provided in a support grid adapter mounts an adaptation of the batch carrier for the defined arrangement of different objects can be easily done by replacing suitable adapter while maintaining one and the same supporting grid.
  • the support grid and the adapters are preferably formed of a material of the material group comprising the materials CFC, graphite or oxide-ceramic material.
  • oxide-ceramic material used here also includes the possibility of forming the oxide-ceramic material as an oxide-ceramic composite material, that is, for example, to provide a body of oxide ceramic with a base or matrix of a fiber structure.
  • the support grid has at least one row arrangement of a plurality of adapter receptacles, wherein the Adapter receptacles have a receiving edge for supporting a support edge of the adapter, wherein the receiving edge is formed by at least one web of a grid structure of the support grid and the support edge has a positioning means for positive connection with the at least one web.
  • the adapter receptacles are formed by the grid structure of the support grid, so that the adapter receptacles are integrally formed in the support grid.
  • the formation of the support edge of the adapter with a positioning device allows a positive connection with the grid structure without further special connection means.
  • the receiving edge is formed as a closed frame with a frame opening formed in the grid structure of the support grid, and the support edge is provided as a support frame with a frame opening, wherein the frame openings are arranged at least partially overlapping each other, the batch carrier is particularly suitable for receiving objects which penetrate the plane of the supporting grid and thus can be accommodated particularly securely positioned in the batch carrier.
  • Both the receiving edge of the adapter receptacles and the support edge of the adapter are of annular design, wherein the support edge has positioning grooves as positioning device for producing an engagement connection with the grid structure of the support grid.
  • the adapter receptacles and the adapter are particularly suitable for receiving rotationally symmetrical objects, such as gears with integrated shaft hub, which allows, for example, a direct connection of the gear to a shaft suitable.
  • the vertical distance of the objects relative to the support grid can be adjusted by a corresponding dimensioning of the contact extensions. It is also possible to provide the support edge of the adapter for supporting the male object with contact extensions in order to position the contact surfaces on the one hand exactly in their relative arrangement to the object, so that the contact surfaces can also be used for centering the object, and on the other hand by a corresponding embodiment of the contact extensions to minimize the contact surfaces between the adapter and the object.
  • a releasable securing device is provided for the positive locking of the adapter in the adapter receptacles, it is possible to secure the adapter during the handling of the batch carrier, if necessary, on the supporting grid, without restricting the advantageous interchangeability of the adapter.
  • the securing device is designed as a component which can be handled independently of the other components of the batch carrier, it is possible to optimize the adapter specifically for its function for receiving or defining the objects without the morphology of the adapter in FIG special way to fulfill the security function would have to be designed.
  • This is a morphologically simple design of the adapter and thus the simplest possible design of the adapter possible, which has a positive effect both on the production and on the durability of the adapter.
  • complex configured connecting elements both a plug connection of the adapter with the support grid or the assigned adapter recording and at the same time allow a backup of this connector are waived.
  • the securing device can be formed, for example, like the support grid made of CFC or an oxide-ceramic material.
  • the securing device connects an arrangement of a plurality of adapters with adapter receptacles of the support grid, the execution of securing the adapter in the adapter receptacles of the support grid can be carried out particularly economically.
  • the securing device has at least one locking strip, which engages in a plurality of respectively formed in an adapter and arranged in a common Riegelfrow locking grooves, so that the execution of the backup process can be done by a particularly simple handling of the locking bar.
  • the securing device is formed integrally on the support edge of the adapter, so that no separate components have to be provided for carrying out the securing.
  • the securing device is formed by locking grooves, which are preferably formed in a groove flank of the positioning grooves, so that the already existing positioning grooves are also used to form the locking grooves.
  • the batch carrier has a plurality of support grates arranged in a stack arrangement, which are connected in each case via spacers to adjacent support grates, it is possible to easily adapt the batch size to the capacity of the process space in which the thermal loading of the articles takes place.
  • the spacers are formed from a material comprising the materials CFC, graphite and oxide ceramic material group, so that a suitable vote a combination of materials between the support grid and the spacers can be done.
  • Fig. 1 shows a side view of a batch carrier 10, which has in stack arrangements 17 a plurality of support grids 11, which are each spaced apart by spacers 12, wherein the spacers 12, as in particular from Fig. 5 seen, are formed in two parts, such that the spacer 12 is arranged on a top 13 of the support grid 11 spacer upper part 14 and a on a Lower side 15 of the support grid 11 arranged spacer base 16 has.
