Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a surface modification method, a cleaning method, and apparatus therefor which are suitable for modifying the surface of a mechanical part (e.g. a gear, a spring, or a metal mold) or for cleaning a structure (e.g. a plant) or a bridge rack by utilizing the crash impact force of cavitation. SOLUTION: A nozzle comprising a low-pressure nozzle and a high-pressure nozzle concentrically arranged therein is located at a position apart from the surface of a work (e.g. a mechanical part). High-pressure water is jetted through the high-pressure water nozzle to form cavitation air bubbles, and the crash impact force of the cavitation air bubbles is increased by pressurizing with low-pressure water jetted through the low-pressure nozzle. The increased crash impact force is used for the surface treatment and cleaning of a mechanical part, etc.

However, the following problems have been found in the above-mentioned known examples.
That is, in the case of the above (a), although it is shown that the crushing impact force of cavitation is utilized, it is confused with a general water jet that is injected into the air, and the degree of surface modification It is said that (residual stress value, etc.) depends on the pressure of the pressurized water to be jetted, and sufficient processing capacity has not been obtained. Further, since the controlling factors of the cavitation crushing impact force in the surface modification are not understood, the discharge pressure of the pump is blindly increased to require an expensive pump, that is, high cost. (B)
In case of water jet cleaning, several tens of Mpa
Since an expensive plunger pump (usually several thousand atmospheric pressure, tens of million yen) of (several hundred atmospheric pressure) to several hundred Mpa (several thousands atmospheric pressure) is used, the equipment cost and running cost are high. Further, since the cleaning area is approximately the same as the nozzle diameter, it is necessary to precisely control the injection area (by the order of millimeter meter) when cleaning. In the case of (c), only those which can be put into the pressurized container can be processed. In addition to being complicated to handle in and out of the container, it cannot be used for plant exteriors and civil engineering work. In the case of (d), the nozzle according to the published patent entrains air, so the cavitation impact force is weak, or cavitation does not occur at all. (E)
In the case of (1), in the method of providing the jet cover, when the gap between the jet cover and the object to be processed changes, the gap increases → the pressure in the jet cover decreases → the cavitation jet becomes extremely long. The phenomenon that the clearance decreases → the pressure inside the jet cover increases → the cavitation jet becomes extremely short occurs. That is, when the nozzle distance L1 is reduced, the optimum standoff distance LS becomes further longer, and it becomes difficult to control the nozzle to be maintained at the optimum standoff distance (see FIG. 5).

As described above, some proposals have been made for the air cavitation jet, but in reality, there is no successful case where the cavitation jet can be generated in the air. The reason is that the nozzle diameter of the low-pressure water is too small, air is entrained because the tips of the low-pressure water nozzle and the high-pressure water nozzle are set at the same position, and the pressure of the low-pressure water is too weak. , Etc. may be the cause.

In order to generate a cavitation jet (high-speed underwater jet), a water tank is generally required to jet high-pressure water into water. For this reason, it is necessary to put the workpiece and the object to be cleaned in the water tank for surface modification and cleaning by the cavitation jet, but if high-pressure water (high-speed water jet) is surrounded by the low-speed water jet and jetted, the water tank There is a possibility that a cavitation jet can be jetted in the atmosphere without using the. From such a background, the present inventor provides a nozzle for injecting low-pressure water that becomes a low-speed water jet around the periphery that injects high-pressure water that becomes a cavitation jet, and injects the pressure due to collision of the low-pressure water. We have found a method of increasing the crushing impact force of cavitation bubbles by pressurizing the surface to be processed and the surface to be cleaned.

FIG. 2 shows the relationship between the discharge pressure of the low-pressure water and the jet machining capacity (aluminum mass loss). The mass loss when the pressure of the low-pressure jet is 0.1 MPa is larger than that when the cavitation jet having the same discharge pressure is injected into water both in the air and in water.
It is more than 15 times larger. That is, the low pressure jet increased the processing capacity by about 15 times. The same processing ability was obtained in water and air. The optimum pressurizing pressure of the low pressure water is 1/100 to 1/50 of the high pressure water for the cavitation jet. In that case, the processing capacity is further increased. As a surface modification effect, when measuring the compressive residual stress of the processed surface,
When low-pressure water is not jetted, the value of compression is small and the time required for processing is 10 times or more (see FIG. 3). Further, the depth at which the compressive residual stress is introduced is less than half (see FIG. 4).

As described above, according to the present invention, the low pressure water is jetted so that the collision surface of the cavitation jet is sufficiently surrounded by the low pressure water, and the surface to be machined or the surface to be cleaned is sprayed by the collision pressure of the low pressure water. Pressurize. At this time, since the crushing impact force of the cavitation bubbles is greatly increased, the surface modification can be efficiently performed as compared with the conventional method. Moreover, the nozzle diameter of the low-pressure water is 30d to 50 with respect to the diameter d of the high-pressure water nozzle.
By setting d, the collision surface of the cavitation jet can be sufficiently pressurized. In addition, the tip of the nozzle for low-pressure water is installed downstream of the tip of the nozzle for high-pressure water (about 10 to 50d on the side close to the collision surface) to pressurize the place to be crushed after the cavitation jet has developed.
