Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for removing adhesive residues from surfaces and a blasting device therefor.
  • Adhesive joints are materially bonded joints between joining partners that are used more and more frequently, and have to be separated again in the motor vehicle sector, for example during maintenance work or in the course of body repairs, but also when necessary. Existing connections and joints have to be opened or removed economically and efficiently. Above all, the removal of structural adhesive joints is a major challenge.
  • a common procedure today for separating adhesive bonds is local heating of the bonded areas using various methods (hot air blower, infrared heater, etc.) in order to loosen the adhesive layer.
  • the heating is often undefined and there is a risk of thermal damage to adjacent, remaining structures, components and surfaces. This can make re-gluing more difficult.
  • the adhesive can be softened and thus loosened more easily, but adjacent, for example painted body areas that remain on the vehicle can also be heated impermissibly and thereby their color or strength change or even be irreparably damaged by the formation of bubbles.
  • thermo-thermal methods for loosening the sticking of parts or for cleaning contaminated surfaces on the parts, for leg play using induction heating or a hot air blower. Work must be carried out in high temperature ranges of up to 400 ° C, so that the functionality of the connected parts or deeper layers can be impaired.
  • cleaning methods and blasting devices which work with the aid of carbon dioxide and optionally additionally used compressed air.
  • the carbon dioxide is supplied either in solid form as pellets or as liquid carbon dioxide. It then expands into the atmosphere in an expansion chamber of the blasting device or when it emerges from a nozzle of the blasting device, so that small carbon dioxide particles and gaseous carbon dioxide are formed.
  • a blasting device and a cleaning method are described in DE 102008 061 667 A1.
  • the object of the invention is to remove adhesive residues from a surface by means of an improved cleaning method or a further developed blasting device.
  • the invention has the features of claims 1 and 9.
  • the further subclaims and the following description show advantageous developments of the invention.
  • the invention has recognized that effective cleaning can be achieved by increasing the energy transfer and further cooling of the surface to be cleaned if a cold-resistant liquid is added to the cleaning jet.
  • the cold-resistant liquid is added before, during or after the conversion of the liquid carbon dioxide into gaseous carbon dioxide and carbon dioxide particles.
  • the coolant formed by admixing the cold-resistant liquid with the carbon dioxide has a significantly higher energy content and temperatures lower than -40.degree. C. and preferably about -70.degree. C. can be achieved.
  • the cleaning effect improves at such low temperatures.
  • adhesives used in the automotive industry in the body shop become brittle at these temperatures.
  • adhesive residues can be removed quickly and reliably.
  • adhesives become brittle at these temperatures.
  • the bonds can be dismantled and preferably separated mechanically. The contamination can then be removed quickly and reliably from the surfaces.
  • ethanol or isopropanol is added to the carbon dioxide mixture, or a mixture with ethanol or isopropanol is used as the main component.
  • the temperature of solid carbon dioxide is -78.5 ° C.
  • a cold-stable liquid By adding a cold-stable liquid and slightly warming it up in the area of the nozzle and in the atmosphere before it hits the surface of the bonded parts to be separated or the contaminated surface, the temperature of the emerging mixture is reduced.
  • temperatures as low as -70 ° C can be reached here. This temperature is particularly dependent on the amount of carbon dioxide supplied in relation to the amount of the cold-stable liquid supplied.
  • the housing is open to the surface of the part to be separated or cleaned, but also has an opening to which a line for discharging carbon dioxide and cold-stable liquid is connected.
  • the intrinsic pressure of the gas then either automatically leads to sufficient discharge or this discharge can be supported by gentle suction.
  • liquid carbon dioxide instead of liquid carbon dioxide, all liquid gases can be used which, when expanded to a gaseous state, reach a temperature below -40 ° C.
  • liquid nitrogen can be used. Ethanol, isopropanol or another cold-resistant liquid can then also be added to the nitrogen. Significantly lower temperatures can then be achieved here again.
  • the nitrogen is more complex to handle and has far higher requirements in terms of safety. It could be used in stationary applications, for example in the car factory, for example to repair a failed production or to remove excess glue.
  • the cold-resistant liquid is supplied in the jet device preferably during or after the expansion of the liquid gas, preferably carbon dioxide.
  • the cold-resistant liquid is therefore not added to the liquid carbon dioxide, but rather to the mixture of gaseous carbon dioxide and carbon dioxide particles that is formed or formed.
  • the dosing of the liquid carbon dioxide and the cold-resistant liquid takes place on the blasting device by separate dosing units. This makes it possible to flexibly adapt the mixing ratio and the volume flow to different cleaning tasks.
  • the shape and size of the expansion chamber and the setting of the metering unit for the liquid carbon dioxide are preferably selected so that the liquid carbon dioxide is about 40 to 60% converted into gas and about 60% accordingly up to 40% carbon dioxide particles are produced. Particularly effective cleaning and cooling has been demonstrated here and the cleaning process can advantageously be carried out quickly.
  • This process can also be used as an effective energy transfer system, for example for cooling systems using two different media.
  • the addition of the cold-stable liquid before, during or directly after the expansion of the liquid carbon dioxide leads to a higher energy density in the expansion space. This accelerates the transfer of energy. This leads to a stronger cooling of the environment. Due to the higher heat transfer coefficient of the cold-stable liquid, more energy is withdrawn from the adjacent surfaces faster and more quickly.
  • the invention is based on a device for the gentle separation of adhesive bonds, which brings a coolant into the area of adhesive bonds to be separated between bonded joint partners, whereby the adhesive of the adhesive bond assumes a temperature that enables the adhesive bond to be separated with low mechanical forces.
  • the device is further developed in accordance with the invention in that a cooling head covers at least a section of the adhesive connection to be separated, the coolant being able to be introduced between the cooling head and the section of the adhesive connection covered by the cooling head.
  • the cooling head can be adapted and dimensioned to the respective present shape of the sections of the adhesive connection covered by the cooling head and each covers at least the area of the adhesive connection that is to be separated from one another.
  • the coolant volume to be introduced is largely reduced to the volume of the cooling head and the cooling head can also largely seal off the coolant to be introduced against undesired leakage and thus loss of coolant.
  • the cooling head can seal off neighboring areas of the components that are not to be cooled down from undesired exposure to cold.
  • the cooling head can be positioned manually on the adhesive joint and consumes - unlike the known coolant baths for immersing the components - significantly less coolant. In addition, handling is much easier and safer.
  • the basic shape of the cooling head is adapted, preferably by means of additive manufacturing processes, to the respective shape and / or geometry of the bonded joint partners in the area of the respective adhesive connection to be separated.
  • This makes it easy and inexpensive to adapt the basic shape of the cooling head to a wide variety of shapes and, if necessary, partial geometries as well as the dimensions of the adhesive joints of the bonded joint partners to be separated, especially when using additive manufacturing processes, so that the advantages of the limited coolant volume required and the ease of use of the cooling head can be guaranteed even with complex geometrical relationships of the adhesive joint to be separated.
  • the cooling head has a hood-shaped, preferably bellows-like basic shape, since such a hood-shaped configuration of the cooling head offers good manageability of the cooling head with a defined volume for the coolant inside the cooling head.
  • the hood-shaped cooling head is then designed to match the respective shape of the bonded joint partners in the area of the adhesive connection to be separated and can be pressed against the area of the adhesive connection to be cooled so that the cooling head overlaps the area of the adhesive connection to be cooled and in relation to the environment largely concludes.
  • the introduced coolant is thereby largely enclosed and can develop its cooling effect locally without the coolant being able to escape impermissibly.
  • Hood-like encompassing should mean here any form of delimitation of a largely closed volume between the cooling head and bonded joint partners, which naturally depends on the shape of the bonded joint partners to be separated and the necessary coolant volume and, within the scope of this invention, largely depends on the respective conditions by the person skilled in the art can be customized.
  • the cooling head can have a material that can be elastically deformed at normal ambient temperature to the shape of the bonded joint contour in the area of the respective covered adhesive connection, the material of the cooling head maintaining its respective shape when the adhesive connection cools, preferably solidified inelastic.
  • the material of the cooling head can also be designed at least in sections so that the cooling head is wholly or partially elastically deformable and thus also adapts to the shape of the can adapt each area to be cooled of the adhesive bond. This elastic deformability is advantageous when building up the cooling effect, since it achieves an improved sealing of the coolant volume in the cooling head.
  • the handling of the cooling head is simplified if the elastically deformable parts of the cooling head lose at least part of their elasticity and largely because of the coldness of the coolant inside the cooling head, by which the elastically deformable parts are also acted upon solidify and thereby retain the shape achieved. In this way, for example, the contact pressure on the cooling head required for sealing can be reduced.
  • a further improvement in the loss of coolant can be achieved by the fact that the cooling head has sealing elements or the like, preferably sealing lips, on its joint area resting against the bonded joint partners.
  • This enables elasticity, which can optionally be adjusted independently of the existing elastic properties of the cooling head itself, at the contact areas between the cooling head and the respective covered areas of the adhesive connection, whereby the sealing effect can be additionally improved.
  • Any remaining joints between the contact areas of the cooling head and the bonded joint partners are also sealed by the action of the coolant that may escape there, in that areas that are frozen with the ambient air are formed there, which additionally close the joints.
  • liquid carbon dioxide which turns into a gaseous state in the area of the cooling head, dry ice forms on the adhesive bond to be separated by resublimation, which also seals the remaining joints.
  • the cooling head can partially cool the adhesive connection to be separated by successive displacement relative to the bonded joint partners and the adhesive connection can be partially separated one after the other. In this way, even larger adhesive connection areas can easily be processed one after the other without large ones Coolant quantities are required for this.
  • the cooling head is moved, for example by hand, successively or step-by-step over the adhesive surfaces to be separated and cooled in each case, after which the respective cooled area is mechanically separated.
  • the cooling head preferably insulated from other areas of the cooling head in terms of cooling technology
  • a worker can, for example, position the cooling head manually to match the adhesive connection to be separated and cool it locally and then separate it, after which the worker positions the cooling head at the next point of the adhesive connection to be separated and can thus successively process larger adhesive connections to be separated.
  • Such handling elements also facilitate the pressing and sealing of the cooling head, if necessary until the material of the cooling head solidifies. It is of course also conceivable to position the cooling head automatically or in a guided manner.
  • the cooling head has a separating device with which the bonded joining partners can be separated by applying a mechanical force, preferably a force introduced in the form of a pulse, in the area of the cooled adhesive surface.
  • a separating device arranged on the cooling head can, for example, bring about an at least local separation of the bonded joint partners through mechanical impacts and / or vibration on the bonded joint partners and thereby accelerate the separation of the bonded joint partners.
  • the device has means for introducing a gaseous coolant or coolant that changes into the gaseous state between the cooling head and the section of the adhesive connection covered by the cooling head.
  • corresponding valves and supply lines can be arranged on the cooling head, which for example connect the cooling head to a coolant supply, through which the coolant can enter the interior of the cooling head from the coolant supply.
  • these connections in such a way that the cooling head is connected to the coolant supply in a fluid-tight manner in such a way that the coolant can circulate between the cooling head and the coolant supply. This is also a recovery of the coolant is possible after the respective cooling cycle per area of the adhesive bond to be separated has ended.
  • a monitoring device for the temperatures reached in the cooling head and / or on the bonded joining partners is provided in the area of the cooling head.
  • the volume inside the cooling head can be monitored by a temperature sensor or the surface temperature of the bonded joint partners to be cooled within the cooling head can be measured.
  • the material of the cooling head can at least in sections comprise, for example, elastomeric plastic materials with a glass transition range between -50 ° C and -78 ° C, preferably silicone rubber and / or styrene-butadiene rubber and / or polybutadiene.
  • elastomeric plastic materials with a glass transition range between -50 ° C and -78 ° C, preferably silicone rubber and / or styrene-butadiene rubber and / or polybutadiene.
  • Such materials are, on the one hand, readily elastically deformable at room temperature and can easily be brought into the required shape of the cooling head; on the other hand, they have rather brittle properties below their respective glass transition temperature.
  • the glass transition temperature of such materials is advantageously in the range of the temperatures that the coolant generates within the cooling head, so that the coolant can cause not only the embrittlement of the adhesive connection but also the solidification of such materials of the cooling head.
  • the material of the cooling head has, at least in sections, metallic materials that are shaped in the form of bellows or similar to corrugated pipes or flexible hoses. Such metallic materials do not solidify as strongly as plastic materials at normal coolant temperatures, but are sufficiently flexible and mechanically wear less than plastic materials.
  • cooling head as part of the device according to the invention is optional and depends on the application.
  • the use of a cooling head in series lends itself to recurring removal or cleaning processes, whereas the use of a cooling head that is in any case individually adapted to the geometry of the components is less advantageous for small quantities.
