Description
【発明の詳細な説明】
[発明の目的]
(発明の技術分野)
本発明は、超電導線の接続方法に係り、特に電流容量の
低下を招くことなく、接続部分の抵抗値を可及的に小さ
くできるようにした接続方法に関する。[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Object of the Invention] (Technical Field of the Invention) The present invention relates to a method of connecting superconducting wires, and in particular, to a method of connecting superconducting wires, in which the resistance value of the connecting portion is reduced as much as possible without causing a decrease in current capacity. This relates to a connection method that allows for smaller size.
(従来の技術)
超電導コイルで連続的に磁界を発生させる場合1時間的
に安定な磁界を得ようとするときには。(Prior art) When trying to obtain a magnetic field that is stable for one hour when continuously generating a magnetic field with a superconducting coil.
通常、超電導コイルを永久電流モードで運転する方式が
採用される。この場合、永久電流ループにおける電流の
減衰は、永久電流ループを構成するために存在する超電
導線同志の接続部の抵抗値と超電導コイルのインダクタ
ンス値とによって決まる。すなわち、電流の減衰を少な
くするには接続部の抵抗値を可能な限り小さくする必要
がある。Usually, a method is adopted in which the superconducting coil is operated in persistent current mode. In this case, the attenuation of the current in the persistent current loop is determined by the resistance value of the connection between the superconducting wires that are present to constitute the persistent current loop and the inductance value of the superconducting coil. That is, in order to reduce the attenuation of the current, it is necessary to make the resistance value of the connection part as small as possible.
ところで1通常の超電導線は、銅やアルミニウムなどの
安定化母材中に超電導フィラメント祠を複数本埋め込ん
だものとなっている。このようなことから、超電導線同
志を接続する手段としては。By the way, a typical superconducting wire has a plurality of superconducting filaments embedded in a stabilizing base material such as copper or aluminum. For this reason, it is recommended as a means of connecting superconducting wires.
従来、安定化母材同志を半田付は等によって接続する方
法が採用されていた。この接続方法であると、接続部を
長くすることによって接続部における抵抗値を小さくで
きる。しかし、安定化母材は常電導材であり9本質的に
超電導とはならないので、接続部における抵抗値を10
9Ω程度以下にすることはできなかった。Conventionally, a method has been adopted in which stabilizing base materials are connected to each other by soldering or the like. With this connection method, the resistance value at the connection part can be reduced by lengthening the connection part. However, since the stabilizing base material is a normal conducting material and is not essentially superconducting, the resistance value at the connection part is set to 10.
It was not possible to reduce the resistance to about 9Ω or less.

変化したりすることが原因していると考えられている。In addition, a connection method called diffusion bonding is being considered as a method of shortening the connection length and realizing a very small connection resistance value. This is a method of connecting superconducting filament materials by heating them in a vacuum and applying pressure. In this connection method, 10-
A connection of 12Ω or less can be achieved. However, when connected in this manner, the current capacity of the connected portion is usually reduced by more than 50% compared to the case of a bare wire. This is thought to be caused by the surface of the superconducting filament material being contaminated by oxidation, or the processing state of the superconducting filament material changing due to the heat applied during pressurization.
一方、拡散接合法より簡単な接続方法として。On the other hand, it is a simpler connection method than diffusion bonding.
冷間圧接法の試みられているが、現在、満足できる抵抗
値を得るに至っていないのが実状である。Attempts have been made to use cold welding, but the reality is that a satisfactory resistance value has not yet been achieved.

も電流容量を落とさずに10−12Ω程度以下の接続を
実現することが困難であった。(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) As described above, with the conventional connection method, it is difficult to realize a connection of about 10-12 Ω or less without reducing the current capacity with a simple process.
そこで本発明は、電流容量を落とさずに1042Ω程度
以下の接続を実現でき、しかも工程の簡単な超電導線の

材同志を加圧圧接して接続するようにしている。Therefore, the present invention aims to provide a method for connecting superconducting wires that can realize a connection of about 1042 Ω or less without reducing the current capacity and that has a simple process. After providing a coating layer made of a material harder than the filament material or the oxide layer existing on it on the surface of the superconducting filament material located in the part used for connection, the superconducting filament materials are connected to each other through this coating layer. They are connected by pressure welding.

面部を引きちぎっていく。(Function) The hard coating layer provided on the surface of the superconducting filament material collapses when subjected to pressure and is rolled in the direction of weak pressure. At this time, the surface of the superconducting filament material is torn off.

法の一実施形態を図面を参照しながら説明する。This action removes oxides, etc. on the surface of the superconducting filament material, revealing the surface of pure filament material, and these clean surfaces are pressure-welded to each other.See the drawings below for an embodiment of the connection method of the present invention. I will explain while doing so.

込んで構成されている。First, as shown in FIG. 1('a), superconducting wires 1a and lb to be connected are prepared. In the case of this embodiment, the superconducting wires 1a, lb are constructed by embedding a plurality of superconducting filament materials 3 made of NbTi in a stabilizing base material 2 made of copper.

ばタングステンの被覆層4を蒸着法によって形成する。The stabilizing base material 2 at the ends of these superconducting wires 1a and lb to be connected is removed to expose a predetermined length of each superconducting filament material 3. Next, as shown in FIG. 3B, a coating layer 4 made of a material harder than the superconducting filament material 3, such as tungsten, is formed on the surface of the exposed portion of each superconducting filament material 3 by vapor deposition.

The portion of the superconducting filament material 3 covered with the coating layer 4 is placed together in a copper sleeve 5, and a pressure of about 100,100 O' is applied to this sleeve 5 from the outside.
This is plastically deformed to complete the connection work.
このように加圧接続すると、超電導フィラメント材3の
表面を覆っている被覆層4は潰され、第2図に示すよう
に加圧力の弱い方向へ圧延される。When the superconducting filament material 3 is connected under pressure in this manner, the coating layer 4 covering the surface of the superconducting filament material 3 is crushed and rolled in the direction of the weaker pressing force as shown in FIG.

面同志が第2図に示すように圧接接続される。At this time, the fact that the coating layer 4 has a higher hardness than the filament material effectively acts to tear off the surface portion of the superconducting filament material 3. This tearing reveals surfaces of pure, uncontaminated filament material, which are then welded together as shown in FIG.

Since a contamination layer such as an oxide layer existing on the surface of the electrode can be reliably removed, the connection can be made with a resistance of about 10-12 Ω or less without reducing the current carrying capacity. In addition, with this connected blade method, there is essentially no need to perform pressure welding in a vacuum or to heat it, so
Connection work can be extremely simplified.

The stabilizing base material 2 of the part used for connection is removed to expose a predetermined length of the superconducting filament material 3, and these are connected in a switchback manner using a sleeve.
The superconducting filament materials may be brought together and bonded under pressure. Further, pressure welding work is sufficient in the atmosphere, but there is no problem even if it is performed in a vacuum or in a high temperature atmosphere.
