2. Description of the Related Art As a general method of manufacturing a product using ceramic powder as a material, a method of first forming a molded body by a method such as hydrostatic molding, extrusion molding, injection molding or slip casting, and then sintering it is known. I have. When producing a tubular body by these methods, for example, by hydrostatic molding, a rubber mold incorporating a rod-shaped core is used, and the inside of the rubber mold is filled with ceramic powder and pressed. Pressure is applied in the medium, after which the core is removed from the molded body, and then the molded body is fired.
In the case of extrusion molding or injection molding, use a mold having a core material such as a mandrel, and extrude or inject a ceramic material that has been given kneading and fluidity by kneading with synthetic resin etc. A hollow molded body is formed, and then subjected to necessary treatment such as degreasing, and then fired. Furthermore, in the case of slip casting, ceramic powder is injected together with a dispersion medium into a mold having a rod-shaped protrusion serving as a core material, and the dispersion medium is penetrated and absorbed into the mold, and the resulting hollow shape is obtained. Will be fired.

In particular, as a method of obtaining a ceramic pipe by using hydrostatic pressing, first, a cylindrical body is formed by hydrostatic pressing, which is temporarily sintered to impart a certain degree of rigidity, and the temporarily sintered body is drilled by machining. Then, a method of main sintering or a method of forming a rod-shaped core with a low melting point metal and melting and removing the core in a sintering step after isostatic pressing are known.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, when a hollow molded body is obtained by isostatic pressing, in addition to a state in which the core, which is the core material, and the molded body are firmly fitted, especially when the axial length is long, Because the compression ratio of the ceramic powder is not always uniform in all parts, there is a possibility that the molded body may crack or break when extracting the core, and the core is not extracted. There are problems that are difficult. In the case of extrusion molding or injection molding, there is an inconvenience that it is difficult to obtain a thin and long molded body due to restrictions on the rigidity of the molded body and restrictions from a molding die. Such a situation is the same when a molded body is obtained by slip casting.

In addition, in the method in which a pre-sintered cylindrical body is perforated to obtain a ceramic tubular body, it is necessary to intervene in steps such as pre-sintering and perforation processing. Not only does the drilling of the body take time, but the wear of the cutting tool also progresses rapidly, and the machining cost increases. In a method in which the core is formed of a low melting point metal and is melted during sintering, a small amount of the metal forming the core remains and adversely affects the ceramic product or reacts with the ceramic. Therefore, other substances may be purified.

FIG. 1 is a schematic view showing one embodiment of the method of the present invention, and reference numeral 1 indicates a torch for thermal spraying. As the torch 1, a DC arc plasma torch, a high-frequency plasma torch, an acetylene flame spraying torch, or the like can be used, and a ceramic powder, which is a raw material of a tubular body to be obtained, is attached to the tip of the torch 1 so as to open. The gas is sent out from the supply pipe 2 into the plasma jet 3 or acetylene flame. The ceramic powder used here is alumina (Al 2 O 3 ), yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ), calcia-stabilized zirconia (CSZ), perovskite-type composite oxide, silicon carbide (SiC), etc.
The ceramic powder is sent out from the supply pipe 2 into the plasma jet 3 to be heated and melted, and is blown onto the core 4 at a high speed. The core material 4 is formed by winding a flexible material such as a metal mesh or a metal sheet into a cylindrical shape, and has an outer diameter approximately equal to the inner diameter of the tubular body to be obtained and a length equal to or longer than the axial length of the tubular body to be obtained. Is set to

The above-described spraying of the ceramic powder onto the core 4 is performed while rotating the core 4 while holding the core 4 from the upper and lower ends or the inner circumference thereof, or while rotating the torch 1 about the core 4, and simultaneously performing the core 4 or The torch 1 is moved in the axial direction of the core 4 so that the molten ceramic is uniformly attached to the outer periphery of the core 4 and the ceramic layer 5 is continued until the ceramic layer 5 has a predetermined thickness. In this case, even if the tubular body to be obtained is thin and long, the tubular body is held through the core member 4 having a certain rigidity by forming a flexible sheet material into a tubular shape, so that breakage or breakage can occur. The risk of inconvenience such as loss is extremely low. When plasma spraying is performed, the ceramic material is sprayed on the core 4 at a high speed, so that the ceramic layer 5 has a density close to the theoretical density. FIG. 2 shows a state in which the ceramic layer 5 is formed on the outer periphery of the core 4 to a predetermined thickness.

After performing the thermal spraying as described above, the core material 4 is deformed and peeled off from the inner peripheral surface of the ceramic layer 5 to be removed. In this case, if a metal rod or a metal wire is previously attached to one end of the flexible material wound into a cylindrical shape, the core material 4 is deformed by, for example, pulling the metal rod or the metal wire, and the core material 4 is made of ceramic. It can be easily peeled off from the inner peripheral surface of the layer 5.

Effect of the Invention As is clear from the above description, in the method of the present invention,
Since the ceramic powder is formed into a tubular shape by thermal spraying, a tubular body can be obtained immediately without performing sintering work, and the core material is formed of a flexible material into a tubular shape. Because it can be easily separated from the inner peripheral surface of the ceramic layer by being deformed by the external force,
The core material is easily removed, and therefore, according to the method of the present invention, a ceramic tubular body can be manufactured easily and in a short time. Further, in the present invention, since the core material is removed without melting, it is possible to prevent the foreign material from remaining in the ceramic tubular body or reacting with the ceramic material. According to the present invention, since the molten ceramic powders collide at a high speed and fuse and integrate with each other, a high-density and high-strength ceramic tubular body can be obtained without performing firing in particular.
