Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cooling roll for manufacturing an amorphous alloy strip, and a manufacturing apparatus of the amorphous alloy strip.
  • the invention relates to a manufacturing apparatus of an amorphous alloy ribbon including a water-cooled cooling roll.
  • a thick amorphous alloy strip can be manufactured industrially and inexpensively, applications would not be limited to wound-core transformers/reactors, etc., and would be possible for stacked cores and motors.
  • increasing the thickness of the strip increases the space factor and improves the work efficiency of the core manufacturing process. Thereby, the volumes of the core and accordingly the coil including the winding are reduced. Due to the increased thickness, the hysteresis loss decreases; and in the commercial frequency range, a reduction effect of the core loss can be expected that is more than enough to cancel the increase of the eddy current loss.
  • the increased thickness of the strip not only can reduce the power loss but also can increase the strength and rigidity. For motors that have high-speed rotation, an unprecedented product that can endure the strong centrifugal forces acting on the rotor can be realized.
  • the most general method for manufacturing an amorphous alloy is a so-called single-roll melt quenching method in which a cooling roll made of a metal or an alloy having a high thermal conductivity is rotated while causing a melt of an alloy to contact the outer circumferential surface of the roll via a nozzle to cause the alloy melt to coagulate into a ribbon configuration by rapid cooling.
  • the single-roll melt quenching method is a method for manufacturing an amorphous alloy ribbon or sheet in which the melt is quenched by causing rapid movement of the heat of the melt to the cooling roll and by causing the melt to coagulate before crystallization.
  • an “amorphous alloy” is 50% amorphous or more by volume fraction and includes, as the remainder, a multi-phase alloy that has an amorphous parent phase and has nano-sized microcrystals dispersed and precipitated.
  • an equilibrium state is reached where the temperature of the cooling roll increases as the amorphous alloy ribbon is manufactured and the heat amount received by the cooling roll from the melt balances the heat amount dissipated to the cooling water from the cooling roll. If the surface temperature of the cooling roll in the equilibrium state is a temperature low enough that the melt can be coagulated in the supercooled state, the amorphous alloy ribbon can be continued to be manufactured continuously. However, in the case where the roll temperature overheats in the casting and the cooling rate to pass through the glass transition temperature does not reach the prescribed cooling rate, the amorphous ribbon can be manufactured only for a finite period of time.
  • Patent Literature 4 although the cooling flow channels that pierce the side surface of the roll are distributed, the flow channels that contribute to the cooling of the roll are only the flow channels on the concentric circle of the outermost circumference; and the heat dissipation capacity is insufficient.
  • the flow channels on the second concentric circle from the outer circumference are arranged for temperature adjustment; and a cooling apparatus therefore is not provided.

  • An object of the invention is to provide a manufacturing apparatus of an amorphous alloy strip that makes it possible to manufacture a thick amorphous alloy strip on an industrial scale (100 kg or more per charge) by using a single cooling roll.
  • the plate thickness of a current commercial thick amorphous alloy sheet has been limited to 30 ⁇ m or less.
  • An object of the invention is to break through the limit and propose technology that continuously manufactures an amorphous sheet thicker than 30 ⁇ m.
  • the invention designates the structure of the cooling water flow channels of the cooling roll. Specifically, to obtain the amorphous alloy of the desired thickness, a structure of the cooling roll is provided in which the surface area of the cooling water channels inside the roll can be ensured.
  • a manufacturing apparatus of an amorphous alloy strip can be realized in which a thick amorphous alloy strip can be manufactured on an industrial scale.
  • the production cost can be reduced; and smaller product applications are possible due to the space factor increase.
  • the core loss (the iron loss) is reduced, contributing to energy conservation.
  • annealing is performed for the magnetic core used after stacking by winding, uniformity of the core internal temperature can be realized. This is because the heat flows more from the edge into the interior than between layers. Because the uniformity of the temperature can be realized, optimization of the annealing conditions is realized. Because the temperature of the entire core is at the same level within a narrow range, the optimal conditions are achieved at each portion of the core; and the optimal characteristics can be achieved easily.

  • Cu is an essential element when making a so-called nanocrystalline material made of fine crystal grains in the range of several nanometers to 100 nanometers by crystallizing by annealing after making the amorphous foil.
  • the solitary addition of Cu in the (Fe, Co, Ni)—(B, Si, C, P) alloy in the range of 0.1 atomic % to 2.5 atomic % to realize the subdivision of the magnetic domains by partially promoting crystallization to improve the high frequency magnetic properties is within the scope of the invention.
  • Sn is effective when manufacturing an amorphous strip of an Fe-based alloy including a high content of Fe because Sn acts to suppress the crystallization by segregating in a thin layer of the surface of the foil.
  • surface crystallization by annealing occurs easily and the magnetic properties such as the iron loss, the permeability, etc., degrade drastically for an alloy containing 82 atomic % or more of Fe, if 0.1 mass % to 1 mass % of Sn is included, the crystallization does not occur even after the annealing; and the original excellent soft magnetic properties are maintained.

  • valves 27 in the covers 23 it is convenient to provide valves 27 in the covers 23 to release the air.

  • a flow rate adjustment valve 65 is provided in each of the flow channels 62 a , 62 b , and 62 c branched from the main flow channel.
  • the optimal flow rate distribution can be provided according to the width and thickness of the sheet to be cast. For example, in the case where the width and the thickness of a sheet are relatively small, it is sufficient to supply the cooling water with particular emphasis on the flow channel most proximal to the roll outer circumferential surface. As the thickness and the width of the sheet become larger, the water supply distribution for the flow channels on the second and third concentric circles also are increased. Thereby, even in the case where the thickness and the width of a sheet become larger, insufficient cooling capacity does not occur.
  • an amorphous alloy strip having a plate thickness of 30 ⁇ m it is sufficient for 90% or more of the cooling water to be supplied with particular emphasis on the flow channel most proximal to the roll outer circumference.
  • the manufacture of an amorphous strip having thicknesses of 50 ⁇ m, 75 ⁇ m, and 100 ⁇ m is possible by increasing the flow rate of the cooling water flowing in the second and third flow channels.
  • Substantially 100% of the heat that cannot be absorbed by the first flow channel is absorbed by the second and third flow channels.
  • the portion that surrounds the cooling flow channels of the roll has no thermal resistance portions because the portion is one body and is not multiple rings or sleeves connected mechanically by shrink-fitting, etc.; therefore, the flow of the heat can utilize the original high thermal conductivity of the Cu alloy.
  • FIG. 5 is a side view illustrating a cooling roll of the modification.
  • through-holes 67 (referring to FIG. 4A ) and the U-shaped pipes 64 (referring to FIG. 4A ) are not illustrated; and the through-holes 21 a to 21 c which are the flowing water paths are shown by broken lines.
  • the flowing water path of each level is divided into three.
  • the number of pipes (flow channels) coming together at the rotary joint increases (3 times in the illustrated example); the temperature increase of the cooling water can be suppressed; and it is possible to increase the heat dissipation capacity of the cooling roll more effectively. This is because the pressure loss of the cooling water channels decreases.
  • the heat dissipation effect is improved by providing an apparatus that cools the cooling water partway through the water supply path.
  • the diameter and width of the cooling roll used in the embodiment will now be described. These are dependent on the strength of the support mechanism such as the roll rotation axis, the bearings, etc., that support the weight of the roll. If the diameter is too large, the cooling power is improved; but the load of the support mechanism becomes large. Also, if the diameter is too small, the number of branches of the flow channel is insufficient; and the cooling power is insufficient.
  • the diameter should be determined according to the desired thickness of a strip. For example, a diameter of 40 to 60 cm is sufficient for a sheet thickness of 30 to 60 ⁇ m; and a diameter of 60 to 80 cm is appropriate for a thickness of 60 to 90 ⁇ m. Similarly 80 to 100 cm is favorable for 90 to 110 ⁇ m.
  • the cooling capacity increases as the width widens.
  • the effect of widening the width is small.
  • the wall thickness of the roll the distance between the cooling water channels and the roll surface
  • the heat flows two-dimensionally and is conducted to the cooling water in a wide area.
  • the effect of widening the width of the roll is limited because much of the heat amount flows one-dimensionally (the temperature gradient is large in the radial direction of the roll). To put it strongly, it is sufficient for the width of the roll to somewhat exceed the width of the sheet.
  • the size of the through-hole will now be described. Basically, it is sufficient for the total surface area of the through-holes to be such that all of the heat moved from the melt to the cooling roll is sufficiently absorbed by the cooling water. The details are described below. The ease of making the holes, the processing cost, etc., are important points for the size of the through-hole. Also, the pressure that causes the cooling water to flow through must be in an appropriate range. Considering these points, it is favorable for the diameter of the through-hole to be 20 to 50 mm.
  • the nozzle (the opening for dispensing the alloy melt onto the cooling roll) used in the embodiment basically is a multi-slit nozzle.
  • An example of a double nozzle is shown in FIG. 6 .
  • a single-slit nozzle has been used; but the thickness of the foil remains at a constant value and cannot exceed the constant value even if the width of the nozzle (the dimension of the rectangular opening measured in the roll movement direction) is set to be large.
  • the thickness of the foil is dependent on the heat transfer coefficients of the melt and the cooling roll. It is favorable for the widths of the double nozzle each to be in the range of 0.2 to 0.8 mm.
  • the width of the bridge can be large if the slit width on the upstream side is set to be large, this is advantageous from the perspective of the anti-wear properties and the strength of the bridge portion. Because the sheet thickness becomes thicker according to the multiplicity of the nozzle, it is sufficient to use a triple nozzle for a thickness of 60 to 80 ⁇ m, and a quadruple or quintuple nozzle for 80 to 110 ⁇ m. It is confirmed that an alloy sheet in the amorphous state can be manufactured up to at least quintuple.
  • the surface temperature of the cooling roll in the initial casting is low.
  • the Cu or Cu alloy roll that is used due to high thermal conductivity has poor affinity with Fe-based alloys. As shown by the equilibrium diagram of Cu—Fe alloys, the proportion that melts together is slight at low temperatures (including room temperature). Because of the mutual repulsion, the heat that is conducted by lattice vibrations also is not conducted easily. The heat transfer coefficient is low. If the heat transfer coefficient is low, coagulation does not occur no matter how much of the melt is supplied. In other words, the plate thickness does not become thick. The excessively-supplied melt merely becomes beads and scatters at the periphery. A stable puddle (the melt pool maintained between the nozzle and the roll) is not formed.
  • the dispensing pressure is set to be low in the initial casting; and an amount of the melt that is commensurate with the heat transfer coefficient is supplied. Then, the puddle is stabilized; all of the heat that is emitted in the coagulation or high viscosity supercooled-liquification is absorbed by the roll; and the temperature of the roll increases. Thereby, the heat transfer coefficient increases; and a higher heat amount is absorbed. That is, the thickness of the foil can be thick.
  • the method illustrated in FIGS. 4A to 4C is effective to quicken the temperature increase of the cooling roll in the initial casting as described above.
  • the water supply to the flow channel of the outermost circumference is not performed when starting the casting.
  • the flow rate adjustment valve 65 of this flow channel is closed in advance.
  • the outer circumference temperature of the roll increases quickly.
  • the dispensing pressure is increased accordingly. Because the state is a state of a high heat transfer coefficient, the coagulation rate increases; and the sheet thickness becomes large. Water supply is performed also to the flow channel of the outermost circumference at the timing when the desired sheet thickness is reached. Because the temperature of the roll outer circumferential surface at this timing is high, the incoming and outgoing heat are balanced. In other words, the heat amount that is absorbed by the roll and the heat removal capacity of the roll are equal.
  • the heat cannot be removed by only the flow channel of the outermost circumference.
  • the heat that cannot be absorbed is absorbed by the water flowing through the second water path from the outer circumference.
  • the water of the third flow channel is utilized when the sheet thickness is even thicker. Thus, it is sufficient to increase the flow channels according to the desired sheet thickness.
  • the three levels of flow channels shown in FIGS. 4A to 4C and FIG. 5 are not limited thereto and may be increased or reduced according to the sheet thickness.
  • the arrangement of the through-holes i.e., the distance from the roll outer circumferential surface, must be determined.
  • the wall thickness of the roll is important in the case where the cooling water channels are set only at the outermost circumference as conventionally, this cannot be designated in the embodiment.
  • the thermal conductivity being 70% or more of that of pure Cu
  • the heat amount that is conducted to the cooling water can be estimated using the sum total of the surface area of the flow channels of the cooling water and the forced convective heat transfer coefficient of the water (1.2 to 5.8) ⁇ 10 3 W/kg.
  • the heat transfer coefficient recited above refers to “Illustrated Study of Heat Transfer Engineering,” Ohmsha, Ltd., Kaneyasu Nishikawa (Editor) and Naokata Kitayama (published Jan. 1, 1985).
  • the number of flow channels when viewed from the roll side surface may be four or more.
  • the diameter of the roll must be large. If the roll becomes too large, problems occur with the strength of the support mechanism such as the rotation axis, the bearings, etc., supporting the roll. In such a case, two rolls are arranged and used as in FIG. 7 .
  • a specific example and an operation method of the apparatus already are discussed in the Patent Literature 1; and a description is therefore omitted. Modifications are shown in the Patent Literature 2 and the Patent Literature 3.
  • the productivity increases because the time until roll replacement lengthens.
  • the work efficiency also is improved.
  • a manufacturing apparatus of an amorphous alloy strip can be realized in which a thick amorphous alloy strip can be manufactured at an industrial scale using a single roll.
