Definitions

  • the invention relates to a component having a base body comprising a tubular inner shell and a tubular outer shell coaxially collocated around a common longitudinal axis.
  • the component may comprise a further segment that is formed onto the base body.
  • Such components are used in process technology as rotating bodies, for example as classifier wheels for separating or classifying solid particles.
  • Document DE 198 40 344 A1 discloses a classifier wheel for a centrifugal wind sifter with blades through which the air flows from the outside to the inside in the opposite direction to the direction of centrifugal flow, which are arranged between a circular disc carrying the classifier wheel hub and an annular cover disc.
  • the flow channels formed by the surfaces of the blades contain internals which specifically influence the flow path.
  • a classifying wheel for a device for separating powdery, fibrous or granular materials which consists of a monolithically formed cylindrical body having a concentric core for receiving a drive shaft.
  • a plurality of flow apertures is distributed over the cylinder circumference and is formed as slots extending in the longitudinal direction of the cylinder or as radially oriented bores.
  • the inner wall of the tubular inner shell facing the coaxial longitudinal axis forms a sleeve in the base body of the component, which is usually used to receive a drive device, such as a drive shaft of a motor, through which the component can be set in rotation.
  • a drive device such as a drive shaft of a motor
  • Such components are exposed to high stresses and loads during operation, both due to centrifugal forces at high rotational speeds and external forces such as the impact of particles on the component surface in the case of classifier wheels or aerodynamical forces, for example.
  • such components are therefore usually made of a robust material such as steel or other metals, whereby the base body of the component is designed as a solid body.
  • the advantage of the robustness compared to impacting forces is bought by a high dead weight of the component, whereby the roller bearings mounted on the driving shaft required for rotation are highly strained and, thus, wear quickly.
  • a first subject of the invention is a component having a base body of a first material comprising a tubular inner shell and a tubular outer shell coaxially collocated around a common longitudinal axis and forming an annular space between the outer wall of the inner shell and the inner wall of the outer shell.
  • the annular space comprises lattice structures which connect the inner shell and the outer shell in radial direction.
  • inner wall and outer wall refer to the radial direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the component.
  • One end face of the annular space is closed, and the opposite end face of the annular space is open.
  • the annular space is filled with a second material which encloses the lattice structures.
  • the component according to the invention has a significantly lower dead weight due to the annular space of the base body.
  • rigidity and structural stability are at least comparable to prior art components. Radial, axial or azimuthal forces acting on either of the shells are received and transferred to the opposite shell by means of the lattice structures.
  • the filling of the annular space with a second material seals the base body of the component and prevents imbalances of the rotating component due to ingression of particles into the base body. In addition, the filling protects the lattice structures against detrimental effects like abrasion, erosion or corrosion.
  • the outer wall of the outer shell is rotationally symmetrical with respect to the longitudinal axis.
  • the inner wall of the inner shell is rotationally symmetrical with respect to the longitudinal axis.
  • the outer wall of the outer shell and the inner wall of the inner shell are rotationally symmetrical with respect to the longitudinal axis. Rotational symmetry of the inner and/or outer surfaces prevents an imbalance when the component is rotated. This is of increasing importance with increasing rotational speeds at which the components are rotated.
  • Rotational symmetry as used herein with respect to the shell walls means the relationship of the inner and/or outer surface of the component or its parts to the free environment. If, for example, the inner wall of the inner shell forms a recess in the base body of the component for receiving a drive device such as a drive shaft of a motor, the symmetry of this inner wall is of no importance in view of any imbalances. However, the outer wall of the outer shell in this example is of importance if the component is to be designed in view of the reduction or prevention of imbalances.
  • the annular space comprises lattice structures that connect the inner shell and the outer shell in radial direction.
  • the lattice structures may be of any form as long as the function of connectivity between the shells in radial direction is given.
  • the lattice structures comprise 3-dimensional X-lattices, softbox lattices, honeycomb structures, organic lattice structures and/or simulation-based lattices.
  • the lattice structure may be simulated and optimized with respect to its topology by means of mathematical models.
  • the lattice structure is elongated in the direction of the longitudinal axis, in particular if the lattice structure is produced via additive manufacturing methods.
  • the lattice is an open-cell structure. More preferably, the cross-sectional gap width of the lattice is homogeneous in the sense that single gap widths do not differ from each other by more than 50%, more preferably not more than 25%, most preferably not more than 10%.
  • the term "cross-sectional” refers to a plane that is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the base body. A homogenous distribution of gap widths enhances the process of filling the cavities in the annular space with the second material.
  • the lattice structure provides open channels extending from the open end face of the base body towards the opposite closed end face of the base body. This geometric feature further enhances the process of filling the cavities in the annular space with the second material.
  • the ratio of the total volume of the lattice structure to the volume of the empty annular space without lattice structure is preferably in the range from 10% to 70%, more preferably in the range from 20% to 50%, most preferably in the range from 30% to 40%.
  • the lattice structure may be designed with a higher or lower percentage of volume in the annular space.
  • the lattice structures have an n-fold rotational symmetry where n is a natural number greater than 2. From a practical point of view in terms of producibility of the lattice structures the number n should be smaller than 50, preferably smaller than 20.
  • lattice structures with a higher n-fold rotational symmetry are also encompassed by the invention. According to the invention "rotational symmetry" is to be understood as a symmetry with respect to functional features of the lattice structure. A symmetry in a strictly mathematical or geometric sense is not a prerequisite.
  • the first material that constitutes the base body may be any material that is suited to withstand the stresses and forces the component is exposed in operation.
  • the first material is selected from the group of metallic materials, ceramic materials or combined metal-ceramic materials. More preferably, the metallic materials, ceramic materials or combined metal-ceramic materials are suited to be processed in an additive manufacturing process.
  • the first material is a metallic material selected from the group of aluminum alloys, magnesium alloys, nickel-base alloys, steel, stainless steel or tool steel. If a light weight construction is a requirement aluminum alloys or magnesium alloys are preferred. If mechanical strength and stability are requirements tool steel is preferred. If chemical resistance of the first material is of importance stainless steel or nickel-base alloys are preferred.
  • the second material that fills the annular space of the base body may be any material that can be filled into the cavities of the lattice structure in the annular space of the base body.
  • the density of the second material is lower than the density of the first material.
  • the density of the second material is in the range of from 0.01 to 5 g/cm 3 , more preferably in the range of from 0.5 to 1.5 g/cm 3 .
  • the second material is pourable or capable of flowing into the cavities in the annular space.
  • the second material shows a good adhesion to the surface of the first material, e.g. to the inner walls of the inner and outer shell of the base body.
  • the second material is selected from chemically resistant substances.
  • the coefficients of thermal expansion of the first material and of the second material are similar in the sense that the ratio of the coefficient of the second material to the coefficient of the first material is less than 7, more preferably less than 3.
  • the second material is a polymer, in particular selected from the group of thermosets or thermoplastics. In an even more preferred embodiment the second material is based on an epoxy resin.
  • the second material is selected from the group of thermosets and is provided for filling as a reactive mixture with an initial viscosity below 800 mPas.
  • the second material is selected from the group of thermoplastics and is provided for filling as a hot-melt with an initial viscosity below 800 mPas.
  • the second material has a glass transition temperature of at least 140°C.
  • a high glass transition temperature is particularly advantageous for components that heat up while in operation, e.g. due to external forces.
  • a high glass transition temperature of the second material ensures that the annular space conserves its rigidity and does not start to flow or creep unpredictably.
  • the second material is essentially free of gas bubbles. This can be achieved by a pre-treatment of the second material to remove any gas bubbles before the second material is introduced into the annular space. Thereby, a more uniform second material is achieved and the risk of cavity formation in the second material that could lead to imbalances of the rotating component is reduced.
  • the first material is treated mechanically, thermally or chemically before the second material is introduced.
  • the structural part of the base body is self-supporting in the sense that the structure of the base body which is formed by the first material is able to withstand external loads and forces when in operation.
  • the minimal wall thickness of the respective elements of the base body as well as the minimal diameter of the elements of the lattice structure are 1 mm.
  • the second material may contribute to the structural properties to a minor degree. The main tasks of the second material are to seal the base body against ingression of external particles and the protection of the lattice structures against detrimental effects like abrasion, erosion or corrosion.
  • the component according to the invention may be used in a variety of different applications in the process industry. Depending on the intended application, the component may comprise further elements or constituents in addition to the base body.
  • a further component segment is integrally formed onto the closed end face of the base body in the direction of the longitudinal axis directed away from the base body.
  • the further component segment may comprise any technically useful element like blades, edges, lamellas, stirrers, or mixing elements.
  • the component is a classifier wheel, an impeller wheel, e.g. a pump wheel, or a machining tool, e.g. a cutting tool.
  • the inner and/or outer surfaces of the further components are rotationally symmetrical with respect to the longitudinal axis.
  • a second subject of the invention is a method for the manufacture of a component having a base body of a first material comprising a tubular inner shell and a tubular outer shell coaxially collocated around a common longitudinal axis and forming an annular space between the outer wall of the inner shell and the inner wall of the outer shell, the annular space having lattice structures in it connecting the inner shell and the outer shell in radial direction, one end face of the annular space being closed and the opposite end face of the annular space being open.
  • the base body of the component is formed by an additive manufacturing process in a first step, and the annular space in the base body is filled with a second material which encloses the lattice structures in a second step.
  • Additive manufacturing processes also referred to as generative manufacturing processes or 3D printing, are known from the prior art.
  • an additive manufacturing process the material is added layer by layer to produce a component.
  • metal powder or ceramic powder as a material, for example, metal powder particles or ceramic powder particles are applied iteratively and melted by energy input, so that the component is built up layer by layer.
  • Common processes include selective laser melting (SLM), selective laser sintering (SLS), binder jetting, direct energy deposition processes such as laser metal deposition (LMD) and electron beam melting (EBM).
  • the component can be manufactured in different ways.
  • the component is completely manufactured in an additive manufacturing process.
  • the component is preferably manufactured coaxially to the longitudinal axis.
  • the layered construction thus begins with the open end face of the base body with the inner and outer shell and the respective first elements of the lattice structure to which the remainder of the component is fused layer by layer.
  • the component is built up layer by layer up to the open end face as the last piece to be fused.
  • the component comprises a base body and a further component segment integrally formed onto the closed end face of the base body.
  • the further component segment or parts thereof are prefabricated, e.g. by conventional fabrication methods or by additive manufacturing methods.
  • the base body is integrally formed onto the further component segment by additive manufacturing methods.
  • the layered construction thus begins with the closed end face of the base body with the inner and outer shell and the respective first elements of the lattice structure to which the remainder of the component is fused layer by layer up to the open end face as the last piece to be fused.
  • the closed end face may be a part of the further component segment or may be fused onto the further component segment by an additive manufacturing method.
  • the component is preferably manufactured coaxially to the longitudinal axis.
  • parts of the component are prefabricated whereas the base body and further parts of the component are manufactured in an additive manufacturing process.
  • the prefabricated parts and the additively manufactured parts are assembled after their respective fabrication.
  • the respective component can be manufactured using known manufacturing processes, for example by conventional methods like casting or cutting, or by additive manufacturing.
  • particles of the first material which are not firmly bonded to the base body are removed from the annular space after completion of the base body and before filling in the second material. This reduces the probability of imbalances of the rotating component due to particle agglomerations inside the annular space that might distort the rotational symmetry.
  • the first material is treated mechanically, thermally or chemically before the second material is introduced.
  • Mechanical treatment may include roughening of surfaces inside the annular space to improve the adhesion of the second material to the first material.
  • Mechanical treatment may further include grinding or polishing of surfaces inside the annular space to improve the flux of the second material into the lattice structure.
  • Mechanical treatment may also combine different methods.
  • the walls of the shells inside the annular space may be designed with a pre-defined roughness that is higher than the roughness of the lattice structures. After the production of the component and before the filling of the annular space of the base body with the second material the annular space can be subjected to a grinding or polishing process. As a result, the flux of the second material through the lattice structure is enhanced while the adhesion of the second material to the walls of the shells is improved as well.
  • Thermal treatment may include homogenization or stress relief annealing. Stress relief annealing relieves residual stresses in the finished component and minimizes subsequent distortion of the component during operation. Chemical treatment may include nitriding to increase the hardness of the component.
  • the annular space in the base body is filled with a second material which encloses the lattice structures.
  • the process of filling the annular space is suitably selected depending on the properties of the second material. Examples are pouring-in or pressing-in the second material into the open end face or introducing a reactive mixture as the second material into the annular space that cures or develops a foam over time.
  • the annular space in the base body is filled with the second material starting from the closed end face of the base body.
  • a small tube e.g. a cannula or a pipette, is introduced into the lattice structure down to the closed end face of the base body, filling of the second material through the tube is started, and the tube is withdrawn from the annular space in the course of filling the annular space with the second material.
  • the second material is selected from the group of thermosets, the second material is filled into the annular space as a reactive mixture, and the initial viscosity of the reactive mixture is below 800 mPas.
  • the second material is selected from the group of thermoplastics, the second material is filled into the annular space as a hot-melt, and the initial viscosity of the hot-melt is below 800 mPas.
  • the second material is pre-treated to remove any gas bubbles before the second material is introduced into the annular space.
  • a third subject of the invention is a method for the manufacture of a component having a base body of a first material comprising a tubular inner shell and a tubular outer shell coaxially collocated around a common longitudinal axis and forming an annular space between the outer wall of the inner shell and the inner wall of the outer shell, the annular space having lattice structures in it connecting the inner shell and the outer shell in radial direction, one end face of the annular space being closed and the opposite end face of the annular space being open.

  • the annular space in the base body formed in the third step can be filled with the second material. Subsequently, the third and fourth step can be repeated until the base body and/or the component are formed in their entirety.
  • the formation of the base body by the first material and the filling of the annular space with the second material are performed simultaneously, for example by a multi-material additive manufacturing process wherein the first material forms the structural part of the base body and the second material forms the filling of the annular space of the base body created by the first material.

  • the outer wall of the inner shell 2 and the inner wall of the outer shell 3 form an annular space 5 between them.
  • the annular space 5 has two opposite end faces.
  • One end face 8 is open and forms the lower end of the classifier wheel.
  • the opposite end face 7 (not visible in Fig. 6 ) is closed.
  • a further component segment is integrally formed onto the closed end face in the direction of the longitudinal axis 4 directed away from the base body 1.
  • This further component segment is a hollow cylinder with slots in the cylinder wall in longitudinal direction and constitutes the functional part of the classifier wheel.
  • outer wall of the outer shell 3 as well as the outer wall of the cylinder of the further component segment are rotationally symmetrical with respect to the longitudinal axis 4.
  • the inner shell 2 and the outer shell 3 are connected in the radial direction by lattice structures 6 in the annular space 5.
  • the layout of the lattice structures 6 is identical to the layout according to the first embodiment and is shown in more detail in Figs. 7 to 9 .
  • the rotational symmetry of the lattice structure is 4-fold. Turning the wheel around its longitudinal axis 4 by 90°, 180° and 270° leads to identical layouts in view of their structural properties.
  • the inner wall of the inner shell 2 has a longitudinal recess 9 for receiving a drive device such as a drive shaft of a motor.
  • a drive device such as a drive shaft of a motor.
  • the drive shaft of the motor and the inner wall of the inner shell 2 will be assembled in a form-fitted way. Thus, in operation there will be no imbalance due to the recess 9 in the inner shell 2.
