The present invention relates to electrical contact materials. Silver-copper oxide has conventionally been used as one of the electrical contact materials manufactured by internal oxidation. Silver-copper oxide has high electrical conductivity and low contact resistance, but is inferior in welding resistance and wear resistance. Therefore, the inventor of the present invention has conducted extensive research to develop an electrical contact material that has contact properties superior to those of this electrical contact material in terms of welding resistance and abrasion resistance, and as a result, has found a satisfactory electrical contact material. One of the electrical contact materials of the present invention is bismuth 0.1
~5% by weight, 1~10% by weight of manganese, and 1~1% by weight of copper.
It is a material consisting of 10% by weight and the balance silver, and is internally oxidized. Another electrical contact material of the present invention is bismuth
0.1-5% by weight, 1-10% by weight of manganese, and 1% by weight of copper.
~10% by weight, 0.01~0.5% by weight of iron group elements, and the balance is silver, and is internally oxidized. In the electrical contact material of the present invention, bismuth 0.1
The reason for setting bismuth to 5% by weight, 1 to 10% by weight of manganese, and 1 to 10% by weight of copper is that less than 0.1% by weight of bismuth has little effect on improving welding resistance, while less than 1% by weight of manganese improves arc resistance. If it is less than 1% by weight of copper, good results cannot be obtained in terms of welding resistance or abrasion resistance, and if it exceeds 5% by weight of bismuth, the melting point of the alloy will be low. If the temperature drops too low, internal oxidation becomes difficult, and if the content exceeds 10% by weight of manganese, oxides will precipitate in layers and deteriorate the contact resistance, and if the content exceeds 10% by weight of copper, the spherical particles of copper oxide will become coarse and reduce the contact resistance. Bismuth 0.1 to 5% by weight, manganese 1 to 10% by weight,
When the copper content is within the range of 1 to 10% by weight, an electrical contact material with sufficiently satisfactory welding resistance, abrasion resistance, and contact resistance properties can be obtained. Furthermore, in another electrical contact material of the present invention, in addition to 0.1 to 5% by weight of bismuth, 1 to 10% by weight of manganese, and 1 to 10% by weight of copper, 0.01 to 0.5% of iron group elements
The reason for adding % by weight is that when it is dispersed in an electrical contact material, the resulting uniform and fine dispersion of bismuth oxide, manganese oxide, and copper oxide further reduces consumption due to discharge. If the amount is less than 0.01% by weight, bismuth oxide, manganese oxide, and copper oxide will not be uniformly and finely dispersed, and if it exceeds 0.5% by weight, their segregation will increase. Next, in order to clarify the effects of the electrical contact material according to the present invention, specific examples and conventional examples will be described. After melting the materials having the compositions of Examples 1 to 4 shown in the left column of the table below and making them into atomized powder, 600
℃, 9 atm for 2 days, the oxidized atomized powder was compressed and sintered, extruded and drawn, then cut and processed into headers, with a head diameter of 5 mm and a head height of 1.
A fixed contact with a leg diameter of 2.5 mm, a leg length of 2.5 mm, and a movable contact with a head diameter of 4 mm, a head height of 1.1 mm, a leg diameter of 2.8 mm, a leg length of 1.6 mm, and a spherical head shape of 5R were obtained. However, the rivet-type electrical contacts made using the electrical contact materials of Examples 1 to 4 and the rivet-type electrical contacts of the same size made using the materials having the compositions of the conventional examples shown in the left column of the table below in the same manner as in the examples. When electrical contacts were assembled into a hinge-type relay and a switching test was conducted under the test conditions below, the results shown in the right column of the table below were obtained. Test conditions Voltage: AC100V 50Hz Current: 40A, steady 10A Load: Resistance Switching frequency: 20 times/min Number of switching: Contact force until welding occurs: 40g

[Table] As is clear from the above table, the rivet-type electrical contacts made with the electrical contact materials of Examples 1 to 4 have better wear resistance and wear resistance than the rivet-type electrical contacts made with the conventional electrical contact materials. It can be seen that the welding resistance is far superior, and the contact resistance characteristics are approximately the same. As described in detail above, the electrical contact material of the present invention has contact properties that are superior in welding resistance and abrasion resistance than conventional electrical contact materials, so it is a revolutionary product that can replace conventional electrical contact materials. It can be said that it is something like that.
