(産業上の利用分野)
本発明は、電気接点材料、特に内部酸化しにくいAg合
金の電気接点材料の製造方法に関する。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Industrial Application Field) The present invention relates to an electrical contact material, particularly a method for producing an electrical contact material made of an Ag alloy that is resistant to internal oxidation.
(従来技術とその問題点)
従来、電気接点材料の製造方法の一つに、Ag−Sn合
金の板材を内部酸化する方法がある。このAg−Sn合
金は、高温で酸化すると酸化物凝集層が形成され、これ
が内部酸化の進行を妨げる為、比較的低温(430℃)
で高圧下(9気圧)で酸化するので、酸化に時間がかか
り、7日間酸化を行っても酸化深さは0 、5 +n程
度で、それ以上は酸化が進行せず、仮に酸化できても溶
質金属(Sn)が表面に向かって拡散していく為中央部
に大きな酸化物希薄層が形成されるものである。このよ
うに中央部に大きな酸化物希薄層を有するAg5nO!
の電気接点材料を打抜き加工した接点材をベース材にろ
う付けして得た電気接点は、使用中摩耗により接点材中
央部の酸化物希薄層が露出すると急激に溶着、消耗が起
こり、早期に使用不能に陥るものである。(Prior Art and its Problems) Conventionally, one of the methods for manufacturing electrical contact materials is a method of internally oxidizing a plate material of an Ag-Sn alloy. When this Ag-Sn alloy is oxidized at high temperatures, an oxide agglomerated layer is formed, which prevents the progress of internal oxidation, so the temperature is relatively low (430°C).
Since oxidation is carried out under high pressure (9 atm), oxidation takes time, and even if oxidation is carried out for 7 days, the oxidation depth is about 0. As the solute metal (Sn) diffuses toward the surface, a large oxide diluted layer is formed in the center. In this way, Ag5nO has a large oxide diluted layer in the center!
Electrical contacts obtained by punching contact materials and brazing them to a base material will rapidly weld and wear out when the thin oxide layer in the center of the contact material is exposed due to wear during use, resulting in premature wear. It becomes unusable.
この為、Ag5nO,の電気接点材料を作る場合は、A
g−Sn合金粉末を作り、これを内部酸化した後、圧縮
、焼結し、圧延加工を行って板材を作っていた。しかし
この前酸化法は設備費が高く、しかも手間隙がかかって
コスト高となっていた。その上この前酸化法で得た接点
材料は、前述の後酸化法で得た接点材料のように接点表
面が緻密な酸化物層となることがないので、耐溶着性、
耐消耗性は充分とは云えず、後酸化法で得た接点材料よ
りは劣るものであった。For this reason, when making an electrical contact material of Ag5nO,
A g-Sn alloy powder was produced, internally oxidized, compressed, sintered, and rolled to produce a plate material. However, the previous oxidation method required high equipment costs and required time and effort, resulting in high costs. Furthermore, the contact material obtained by this pre-oxidation method does not have a dense oxide layer on the contact surface unlike the contact material obtained by the post-oxidation method described above, so it has excellent welding resistance and
The abrasion resistance was not sufficient and was inferior to contact materials obtained by the post-oxidation method.

また板厚方向の内部酸化組織のばらつきが小さくなる。Furthermore, the variation in the internal oxidation structure in the thickness direction is reduced.

Next, this thick plate block is rolled to a thickness of 0.
It was made of a thin board with a width of 1 mm and a width of 60 mm. Next, this thin plate material was degreased with trichloroethane, folded to a length of 40 m+s, placed in a heating furnace, and internally oxidized at 9 atm and 500° C. for 30 hours. Thereafter, this internally oxidized folded plate material was hot rolled at 800°C to obtain a width of 55 fl and a length of 10 mm.
A thin board with a thickness of 7 dragons and a thickness of 0.5 cranes was obtained.

1 to make a disk-shaped contact material, and braze this to the top surface of the rivet-shaped base material to make a rivet-shaped clad electrical contact to make a fixed contact.Meanwhile, the above-mentioned electrical contact material was punched and formed into a diameter of 4 cranes. to make oval contact material,
This was brazed to the top surface of the rivet type base material to create a rivet type clad contact and used as a movable contact, and a contact opening/closing test was conducted under the following test conditions to determine the number of times the contact opens and closes before welding occurs and wear up to 100,000 cycles. When the amount was measured, the results shown in the table below were obtained. In the lower column of the same table, disk-shaped contact materials and oval-shaped contact materials with the same dimensions as in the example were made from conventional electrical contact materials obtained by internally oxidizing AgAg-3 Tsuru 5% alloy plate material, and these were made into rivet-shaped contact materials. A fixed contact and a movable contact of a rivet-type clad contact are made by brazing to a base material, and the contact opening/closing test under the same test conditions shows the number of times the contact opens and closes when welding occurs and the amount of wear up to 100,000 times. .

:AClooV Load: Resistance load Opening/closing frequency: 20 times/min Contact force: 40g Disassociation force: 45g As is clear from the table above, welding occurred between the fixed contact and the movable contact using the electrical contact material of the example. The number of times the contact opens and closes is
It can be seen that the number of times the contacts are opened and closed due to welding between a fixed contact and a movable contact using conventional electrical contact materials is an order of magnitude higher, and the welding resistance is extremely excellent. Furthermore, in terms of wear resistance up to 10,000 cycles, the fixed contacts and movable contacts using the electrical contact material of the example have significantly superior wear resistance compared to the fixed contacts and movable contacts using the conventional electrical contact material. I understand that.
これはひとえに実施例の固定接点と可動接点における接
点材の内部に酸化物希薄層が無く、内部酸化組織にばら
つきが無いからに他ならない。This is simply because there is no dilute oxide layer inside the contact material of the fixed contact and the movable contact of the example, and there is no variation in the internal oxidation structure.

おのずと制限があることは言うまでもない。In the above embodiments, the material is Ag-3 Tsuru alloy, but it is not limited to this, and can be applied to any Ag alloy that is difficult to internally oxidize. However, it goes without saying that the amount of elements added to Ag is naturally limited in terms of contact performance and molding process.

効果がある。(Effects of the Invention) As can be seen from the above explanation, the method for manufacturing the electrical contact material of the present invention has a short oxidation time because internal oxidation is carried out by folding a Ag alloy into a thin plate. Furthermore, since a thin oxidized layer is not formed in the center, and the folded thin plate material is rolled after internal oxidation, the variation in the internal oxidation structure in the thickness direction is reduced. This has the effect that it is possible to obtain an Ag oxide-based electrical contact material that has improved welding resistance and wear resistance over time.
