Davis, Serial No. 863,246, filed December 31, 1959, for Control and Operating System for Electrolytic Hole Sinking, and may operate a potentiometer corresponding with R5 or R11 in FIG. 2 of that application.
  • Signal light 53 corresponds with signal light of the same FIG. 2 of the same application.
  • This voltage which normally falls between five volts and 18 volts, should be held for best results within about one to five percent of the nominal, preset voltage. To the extent, of course, that there'is any inadequacy of the regulation of the power supply, this may be ofiset by manual adjustment of the voltage control knob 117 (FIG. 1) by reference to volt meter VM2.
  • the pickup connections feeding the voltage balance and bias system of the above identified Keeleric and Mittelmann application should be made, for best. results, close to the electro lytic work gap between the electrode and the Work.
  • control leads may be connected respectively to the fixture holding the work (not shown) and the electrode block or even the electrode itself.
  • the control system will compensate for any losses in voltage occurring because of IR losses in the cables and connections between the power supply unit and the work gap.

  • I prevent or re Jerusalem passage of electric current through the bearings which support the ram head, which would be damaged if heavy current were to pass through them.
  • the entirety of the drivehead assembly is mounted on dovetail cross slides to permit horizontal motion of the entire drivehead assembly in the direction toward and away from the viewer looking at the drawing.
  • This arrangement is conventional, and the motion is imparted by manual operation of hand wheel 123.
  • a slide lock is also provided, and is controlled by handle 125. This locks the motion of the ram head so that once a desired setting has been obtained it will not be disturbed through accidental movement of hand wheel 123.
  • a stainless steel worktable 127 is provided and is mounted upon a vertical slide controlled by hand wheel 129.
  • the entirety of the vertical slide assembly is protected against electrolyte by a collapsible rubber boot (not shown) which is sealed both to the worktable and to the bottom of a stainless steel pan which is at a level just above the upper limb of hand wheel 129.
  • This pan has side walls which extend to a height just below the bottom surface of worktable 127, as shown.
  • the bottom of the pan has exit holes which drain back into electrolyte tank 139.
  • An enclosure 131 for the work area is provided and is arranged to be set down into the stainless steel pan just described.
  • a ventilator connection elbow 133 adapted to be connected to a suction blower to suck away any steam, fumes, or gases.
  • the inlet of this elbow is protected by baboards (not shown) to prevent the influx of solid liquid particles.
  • the electrolyte tank 130 which is made of stainless steel, is fitted with an immersion type heater 135 under the control of a thermostat 137 having an adjustment knob 139.
  • the tank 130 is mounted on wheels 132 as shown, and permanent internal rails and guides 134 we provided as part of the weldment 1.
  • Temporary guide rails 141 are stored behind access door 143, and these may be mounted with pins so as to constitute forwardly extending rails to permit bringing the tank forwardly on these temporary rails and out onto the fioor for cleaning or service attention.
  • the electrical connection for the heater is of the plug in type and the suction line from the tank to the electrolyte pump 145 is made by a standard, quick disconnect coupling 147 and a flexible hose 149.
  • a cooling coil 151 Within the electrolyte tank is a cooling coil 151, which is fed with cold water under control of valve 153. An exit line may be led to the sewer system.
  • the purpose of the cooling coil is to withdraw excessive heat from the electrolyte under those circumstances where heavy working and heavy currents would otherwise cause the temperamre to rise undesirably.
  • the electrolyte pump 145 is driven by a motor 155 and is ararnged to deliver electrolyte under pressure up to 250 or even 300 pounds per square inch. From the pump 145 the electrolyte passes through a filter 157, which is preferably arranged with quick disconnect fittings to permit easy removal for replacement of filter cartridges. It should be understood that both the tank 130 and the pump 145 and its associated motor and filter are within compartments formed in the weldment 1, and that these compartments are normally closedby hinged access doors, which for purposes of illustration have been cut away in this view.
  • the electrolyte passes through a hose line 159, through an electrolyte control panel to a bypass valve 161 seen near the right-hand (or upper) part of the drawing approximately above the midportion of the electrolyte tank.
  • This valve serves as a bypass to set the general pressure level and to accommodate variations in the size and working areas of the electrodes which are being used from time to time.
  • the back pressure created by having closed this bypass valve 161 is indicated on a pressure gauge 163.
  • a T-connection is taken from line 159 to electrode valve 165, which valves the electrolyte into a header block 167, which is mounted within the electrolyte pan and within the enclosure 131.
  • the filter 157 may be connected between the T connection and valve 165 and this arrangement is preferred.
  • This manifold block may have a number of connections for ease in connecting one or more electrolyte hoses to feed the electrode as, for example, the hose 27 shown in this illustration.
  • a second pressure gauge 169 is also connected to the manifold block to indicate the pressure actually being fed to the electrode.
  • electrode valve 165 is adjusted so that the pressure in the manifold 167 is somewhat lower than the pressure in the main supply line 159 (as indicated on gauge 163), then as the electrode approaches the work and induces additional restriction to the flow of electrolyte, the pressure shown at gauge 169 will rise, and by reference to the reduction in difierence between the pressures indicated on the two gauges, the proximity of the electrode to the work may be judged. This is more fully discussed in the copending application Serial No. 772,960, more fully identified above.
  • a normal working pressure will fall between and 200 pounds per square inch, but it is preferable, once the electrode has become fully imbedded in the work, that the pressure should not vary by more than 10 or 15 percent, and under those conditions where maximum rates of penetration are being used and where the electrolyte in the work gap is just at the verge of breaking into steam, then even a slight reduction of pressure would be troublesome. However, an increase of pressure of the order of 10 or 20 percent would not create difi'lculty.
  • the valving and gauging arrangement which is shown permits, in practice, an easy control of the pressure.
  • a discharge line 168 extends downwardly from valve 161 as a return to the electrolyte tank 130.
  • a loop of hose is connected at this point with an elbow at its end which ordinarily discharges electrolyte back into the tank.
  • the hose may be withdrawn through an access door (not shown) at the right-hand end of the machine, and the hose may be put into a barrel or other receptacle. Then, by operating the pump 145 and closing electrode valve 165, electrolyte may be withdrawn from the tank and easily discharged Without the need for removing the tank.
  • the entire system may, if desired, then be flushed with water, using a hose discharging into the pan beneath the worktable and, thus, flowing back through drain openings (not shown) into the tank. It is thus easy to flush the entire system with fresh water and thereby minimize the problem of cleaning.
  • the heater 135 and its associated thermostat 137 are arranged and adjusted to hold the temperature of the electrolyte sufiiciently above ambient temperature so that as energy and, therefore, heat are added to the electrolyte in other ways (for example, by pumping and by the passage of electric current in the work gap between the electrode and the workpiece) the amount of heating provided by heater 135 is automatically reduced by thermostat 137. Accordingly, the heater may be left on overnight to hold a temperature of the order of F. When actual work begins, the pump and the passage of electric current will add energy to the electrolyte and maintain the preset temperature with a reduced demand upon heater 135.
  • the heat introduced in this way may be sufficient to cause the temperature of the electrolyte to rise in the tank above the desired level of, say, 130 F.
  • tap water at a much lower temperature (usually in the range between 50 and 70 F.) is introduced by opening valve 153 and causing water to flow in cooling coil 151.
  • valve 153 By adjusting valve 153, the amount of cooling provided may be so adjusted as to permit the intermittent operation of eater under control of thermostat 137 to maintain the desired temperature.
  • a temperature gauge is provided. This is of the type which has a temperature responsive bulb 77 at the end of a shielded tube 179. The bulb is placed in the manifold 167 so that it senses the temperature of the electrolyte very close to the electrode.
  • manual valve 153 may be replaced by a thermostatic valve so that cooling coil 151 is controlled automatically.
  • the control of temperature of the electrolyte is important in maintaining accuracy, and it is preferred that it be held within about 10 or 15 degrees, usually in the range between a low of about 110 and a high of about 175 or As previously suggested, a normal opersirable to maintain substantially constant the following parameters (1) Voltage (2) Feed rate '(3) Temperature of electrolyte (4) Pressure of el ctrolyte It will be seen that in the apparatus here described, means for controlling all of these have been provided. When all of them are properly controlled it is possible to make holes having straight sides within accuracy of a total error of the order of .002" or less. If, however, the voltage rises and then falls, the hole will be enlarged during that portion of the passage during which the voltage was increased.
  • the hole would be enlarged, or if it were to be increased the hole would be reduced.
  • a rise in temperature causes an enlargement of the hole ordinarily, and a reduction of the temperature reduces the size of the hole.
  • pressure as heretofore discussed, it is possible to tolerate a wider range of variation unless one is operating near the critical edge, and one may regard pressure as being important primarily because it affects flow rate which in turn affects the actual temperature of electrolyte in the work gap itself, although there are also some primary effects associated with the generation of bubbles.
  • pressure By holding the pressure at an elevated level, bubbles of gases of electrolysis, principally hydrogen and oxygen, and bubbles of steam are kept small in size, thereby maintaining a high effective density of the electrolyte. If the pressure is reduced, then the bubble size increases, and the effective density is reduced, thereby increasing the effective resistance of the electrolyte and, consequently,

  • the usual knob for adjusting the rotary position of the dial of the indicator is shown at 232. r
  • the dial indicator 23 is mounted as by screws 301 and an appropriate bracket to a frame member 303, which in turn is fastened by screws or bolts to the upper housing of the drivehead assembly.
  • Frame 303 is bored to receive the push rod 19 in a sliding relationship, and it will be recalled that push rod 19 is directly connected to the ram head 11 so that when the ram is moved push rod 19 moves with it.

  • Hand knob 49 rotates a shaft 317 suitably journaled in brackets mounted to frame 303 so as to rotate a sprocket 319, which drives a ball-link chain 321.
  • a spring 325 is used to take any slack out of the chain.
  • the ends of the chain are fastened by small lugs 327 to carriage 313, so that rotation of the knob 49 causes carriage 313 to move linearly.

  • a pointer 335 To the tubular member 331 is aflixed a pointer 335 with its up showing on the scale type indicia 230 of the dial indicator. When knob 49 is turned, therefore, and carriage 313 moves, the pointer 335 also moves sothat one can see its position.
  • the limit switch is wired in such a way as to break the circuits of the holding relays and to deenergize the electric clutches 6 5 and 67 shown in FIG. '2, and to cause electric brake 43 to be set so as to stop rotation of lead screw 31 very quickly.
  • the point at which this occurs in the travel of the ram is' determined by the position of the carriage 3-13, for the farther it is moved to the left as seen in FIGS. 3 and 4, the less distance the limit switch 309 must move before its actuating button engages the frontal surface of carriage 313.
  • the adjusting knob 49 provides a convenient method of moving the carriage 3'13, and the entire linkage and slide assembly proves in fact to be suflicient to prevent movement of carriage 313 after it has once been set.
