Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method of manufacturing a spiral spring intended to equip a balance wheel with a watch movement. It also relates to the spiral spring resulting from this process made in an Nb-Hf alloy.
  • the invention relates to a method of manufacturing a spiral spring intended to equip a balance wheel with a watch movement and made from an alloy comprising niobium and hafnium.
  • the NbHf alloy blank used in the present invention does not include other elements with the exception of possible and inevitable traces. This makes it possible to avoid the formation of fragile phases.
  • the final heat treatment after strapping is carried out at a temperature between 500 and 1250°C for a time between 30 minutes and 30 hours.
  • a single-phase structure of centered cubic type or two-phase with a centered cubic structure and a compact hexagonal structure can be obtained at the end of this heat treatment.

Claims (6)

  1. Verfahren zum Herstellen einer Spiralfeder, die dazu bestimmt ist, eine Unruh eines Uhrwerks auszustatten, umfassend:
    - einen Schritt zum Ausarbeiten eines Rohwerks aus einer Niob- und Hafnium-Legierung, bestehend aus:
    - Niob: Ausgleich zu 100 Gew.-%,
    - Hafnium: zwischen 5 und 60 Gew.-%, vorzugsweise zwischen 5 und 30 Gew.-% und bevorzugter zwischen 8 und 12 Gew.-%,
    - einem oder mehreren Elementen, die aus Ti, Zr, Ta und W ausgewählt sind, mit einem Prozentsatz für jedes Element zwischen 0 und 2 Gew.-%, vorzugsweise zwischen 0,2 und 1,5 Gew.-%,
    - Verunreinigungen mit einem Gesamtprozentsatz zwischen 0 und 0,5 Gew.-%.
    - einen Schritt zum Ausglühen und Abkühlen des Rohwerks,
    - mindestens einen Schritt zum Verformen des ausgeglühten Rohwerks, um einen Draht zu bilden,
    - einen Schritt zum Aufwinden, um die Spiralfeder zu bilden,
    - einen Schritt zur abschließenden Wärmebehandlung der Spiralfeder, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass es vor dem Schritt des Verformens einen Schritt des Abscheidens auf dem Rohwerk einer Schicht aus einem duktilen Werkstoff umfasst, der aus der Gruppe ausgewählt ist, die Kupfer, Nickel, Kupfernickel, Kupfermangan, Gold, Silber, Nickel-Phosphor Ni-P und Nickel-Bor Ni-B umfasst, um die Formgebung in Drahtform zu erleichtern, dadurch, dass die Dicke der abgeschiedenen Schicht aus duktilem Werkstoff gewählt ist, sodass das Verhältnis zwischen duktiler Werkstoffoberfläche/Legierungsoberfläche für einen gegebenen Drahtquerschnitt kleiner als 1, vorzugsweise kleiner als 0,5, und bevorzugter zwischen 0,01 und 0,4 liegt, und dadurch, dass es vor dem Schritt zum Aufwinden einen Schritt zum Entfernen der Schicht aus duktilem Werkstoff umfasst.
  2. Verfahren nach einem der vorstehenden Ansprüche, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Schritt zum Verformen durch Drahtziehen und/oder Walzen durchgeführt wird.
  3. Verfahren nach einem der vorstehenden Ansprüche, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass es einen oder mehrere Verformungsschritte mit, für jeden Schritt, einer Verformung beinhaltet, der mit einem Verformungsgrad durchgeführt wird, der zwischen 1 und 5 liegt, wobei die Gesamtkumulierung der Verformungen über alle Schritte hinweg zu einem Gesamtverformungsgrad führt, der zwischen 1 und 14 liegt.
  4. Verfahren nach dem vorstehenden Anspruch, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass es einen Schritt zum Ausglühen und Abkühlen zwischen den Verformungsschritten beinhaltet.
  5. Verfahren nach einem der vorstehenden Ansprüche, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass jeder Schritt zum Ausglühen und Abkühlen eine Behandlung zum Lösungsglühen mit einer Dauer, die zwischen 5 Minuten und 2 Stunden liegt, bei einer Temperatur, die zwischen 650 °C und 1750 °C liegt, unter Vakuum ist, gefolgt von einem Abschrecken unter Gas oder durch natürliches Abkühlen unter Vakuum, um das Hf in übersättigter fester Lösung im Nb zu erhalten.
  6. Verfahren nach einem der vorstehenden Ansprüche, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Schritt zur abschließenden Wärmebehandlung für eine Dauer, die zwischen 30 Minuten und 30 Stunden liegt, bei einer Temperatur durchgeführt wird, die zwischen 500 °C und 1250 °C liegt.
