  • a modified form of isostatic compaction involves the loading of a bag, or deformable mold, with a powder material while the bag is positioned within a chamber of a pressure vessel. After loading, the pressure vessel is'closed, and a fluid pressure force is applied to certain of the external surfaces of the bag so as to compact the powder material contained therein.
  • This technique is referred to as dry bag compacting and is usually described as a form of isostatic compacting even though a part of the external surface area of the deformable mold is not subjected to direct pressure from the fluid system operating in the pressure vessel.
  • substantially theoretical isostatic compacting is achieved because indirect forces are applied to all unexposed surfaces of the mold so as to provide for a substantially simultaneous and equal pressure from every direction.
  • the just described dry bag technique offers an advantage of increased production capability by the fact that the deformable mold is filled with a powder material and later unloaded without any required movement of the mold itself from the confines of the pressure vessel.
  • a further form of modified isostatic compaction involves a simulation of a fluid system through the use of relatively soft or flowable substances, such as certain elastomeric materials, which are placed around the quantity of material to be compacted (or around a deformable mold in which the material is contained), and the relatively soft substances impart substantially uniform pressure to all sides of the material being compacted when mechanical forces are applied to the soft substances.
  • this technique is described as a dry bag technique when a deformable mold is filled in place in a pressure vessel.
  • the present invention is mainly concerned with improvements in tooling for the various types of isostatic compaction discussed above, although the principles of the invention are primarily applicable to dry bag techniques for isostatic compaction. More specifically, the invention is concerned with improved tooling for producing certain forms of self-supporting compacts having bores extending therethrough.
  • references to tooling are intended to include the various structures used for supporting and positioning a quantity of compactible material within a chamber defined within a pressure vessel so that relatively high forces can be applied to the compactible material to cause the material to become more dense.
  • substantially improved compacts are produced by isostatic equipment through the use of improved isostatic tooling which carefully controls the formation of a powder metal compact in a high pressure environment.
  • the tooling is of a type which provides for a compact having a bore through its center axis. Positioning of the bore is carefully controlled so as to assure a precise distribution of material about the bore position. This establishes desired metallurgical and dimensional characteristics for a final gear shape having a bore therethrough, as produced by heating and forming (increasing of den sity to nearly per cent theoretical density by known techniques such as forging) steps subsequently applied to the intermediate compact form.
  • the isostatic tooling of the present invention is designed to receive and support a quantity of compactible material which is to be pressed into a self-supporting compact having a bore extending therethrough, and this is accomplished by a combination including a base member which can be fitted into a chamber defined within a pressure vessel for reacting to a fluid pressure force introduced into the chamber, a core rod rigidly fixed to the base member for defining the position and shape of a precisely located bore through the compact to be formed, a deformable mold means mounted on the base member so as to define a compacting zone which includes the core rod element along a center axis thereof, with the deformable mold means having an open end through which powder material is introduced and a formed compact is removed, a manifold means surrounding the deformable mold means to support the mold means in an initial shape and size in which it is filled withpowder material with the manifold means having fluid passages extending therethrough to supply pressurized fluid to outside surfaces of the deformable mold means, and deformable plug means for closing the open
  • the invention constitutes an improvement in forming apparatus comprising a deformable mold defining an open-ended cavity for holding a quantity of powder material while the powder material is being formed into a self-supporting compact with the cavity being larger in volume than the final volume of the compact to be formed and with the deformable mold having a closed end which is generally concave on its interior surface to define the shape of a convex surface of the formed compact, together with core rod means extending from the closed end of the deformable mold along the center axis of the mold, a deformable plug means for closing the open end of the cavity during a molding operation, and supporting means for installing the deformable mold and the core rod in a pressure vessel so that the core rod reacts to axially directed forces within the pressure vessel without interference with forces being applied to the compactible material.
  • compactible materials
  • this is meant to include any material which can be pressed to a new shape or to an increased density by an application of force thereto.
  • This includes loose material, usually in the form of a powder, and the powder can include various known metal, synthetic plastic, ceramic, and cermet materials, and the like.
  • this term includes material which has been previously compacted and which can be further compacted to an increased density and new size or shape.
  • deformable mold means and this is meant to include elastomeric bag or diaphragm structures designed to contain a material during compaction.
  • Such structures can be made from various forms of polyurethane and other elastomeric materials which offer characteristics of resilience, deformability, and recoverability of shape and size after being deformed.

  • FIG. 10 is a view similar to FIG. 1 with portions of the FIG. 1 details omitted so as to emphasize the general condition of the isostatic tooling during a compacting operation.
  • the isostatic tooling of the present invention is of a general type which can be used in known isostatic compacting equipment in which a relatively high force, on the order of 40,000 to 50,000 psig or even higher, can be applied to a compactible material to increase the density of the material and to change its shape so as to form a self-supporting compact which can be subjected to further treatments to produce a desired product.
  • Compacting operations of this type typically involve the placement of the compactible material in a deformable mold which is suspended within a pressure vessel for receiving an isostatic force when the pressure vessel is closed and pressurized.
  • the isostatic force may be developed by injection of a fluid into a chamber in the pressure vessel in which the deformable mold is suspended, or it may be developed by application of force to a fluid, or a simulated fluid, already contained within the chamber of the pressure vessel.
  • the isostatic tooling which will be discussed below has particular use as a dry bag type of equipment for use in a pressure vessel having a self-contained isostatic pressurizing system, but the tooling of this invention may be used with other forms of equipment and with other methods'for pressurizing a pressure vessel.
  • the basic components making up the isostatic tooling of this invention are illustrated with reference to an assembly which can be suspended within a cylindrical chamber formed in a typicalpressure vessel structure.
  • the isostatic tooling is designed to provide for a product having a shape and form in which a bore is defined through a center axis thereof.
  • it is very important and critical to a successful formation of certain intermediate compact forms to provide for a very precise location of the bore in the compact and the isostatic tooling of this invention is directed to improvements which assure correct placement of a bore in a compact in a high production compacting system.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates the isostatic tooling of this invention as installed .
  • compacting apparatus which includes a pressure vessel 10 having a bore 12 formed therethrough to define a main compacting chamberwithin the pressure vessel and having closing means 14 and 16 at opposite ends of the bore for sealing the compacting chamber during a compacting operation.
  • the illustrated embodiment includes an annular mounting sleeve 18 for defining a smaller diameter chamber to receive isostatic tooling within the main chamber defined within the pressure vessel, but the annular mounting sleeve 18 can be omitted or dimensionally changed from what is illustrated in FIG. 1 if a different diameter of isostatic tooling is to be suspended within the pressure vessel.
  • the illustrated arrangement includes a slip sleeve 20 for centering the annular mounting sleeve 18 within the bore 12 of the pressure vessel, and this provides for a centered cylindrical chamber 22 for receiving the illustrated isostatic tooling.
  • the slip sleeve 20 functions to lock and precompress an O-ring seal 21 in place, and this also prevents dislodgment of the O-ring seal when the pressure vessel is depressurized.
  • Pressurization can be accomplished by applying a compressing force to a liquid contained within the main chamber of the pressure vessel, or a high pressure liquid may be injected into the vessel chamber from an external source.
  • the pressurized liquid moves into the smaller diameter chamber 22 within which the isostatic tooling is carried, and is uniformly distributed around the quantity of material 24 to be compacted so as to impart a substantially uniform force to the compactible material from all directions.
  • FIGS. 2-9 illustrates the various components which are assembled together to form the isostatic tooling installation illustrated in FIG. 1.
  • the quantity of compactible material is illustrated as a finished compact 26 having a convex surface configuration 28 at one end thereof and a bore 30 formed through its center axis so as to pass completely through the compact and through the one end on which the convex surface configuration is formed.
  • the finished compact 26 is a self-supporting product which can be subjected to further handling and treating to produce a final product.
  • the final product may be of the identical form and size as the illustrated compact 26 or it may constitute a new shape and size resulting from a subsequent forming operation applied to the intermediate compact form which is illustrated.
  • the illustrated compact is symmetrical about its center axis, and the bore 30 is precisely positioned on the center axis. I
  • the base member 32 (FIGS. 8 and 9) which functions to support and position a core rod means 34 for defining the bore to be formed in a compact.
  • the base member 32 constitutes a rigid nondeformable structure which can be closely fitted (for example, within 0.002 inch or 0.0508 mm) within the diameter of the chamber 22 within which the isostatic tooling is to be placed.
  • the outer cylindrical periphery of the base member 32 closely matches the cylindrical shape of the chamber 22 so as to provide for a centering of the base member 32 and the core rod means 34 within the chamber 22.
  • the core rod means 34 may constitue an integral structure with the base member 32, formed from the same rigid material (such'as steel), or may constitute a separate component which is secured to the base member 32.
  • the core rod means 34 is preferably slightly tapered towards its free end tofacilitate removal of a compacted part. 1
  • the base member 32 supports a deformable mold means which is illustrated as including an inner elastomeric sleeve member 36 (FIG. 4) and an outer elastomeric sleeve member 38 (FIG. 6) to define an openended cavity for holding a quantity of powder material while the powder material is being formed into the il lustrated self-supporting compact 26.
  • the inner and outer elastomeric sleeve members are assembled together so as to be in substantial face-to-face contact with one another, and each of the elastomeric sleeve members includes an opening through its bottom wall portion for receiving the core rod means 34 therethrough. The assembled relationship is illustrated in FIG.
  • the core rod means 34 completely closes the bottom of the deformable mold so that no powder material will escape from the deformable mold during a compacting operation.
  • the core rod means includes a reduced diameter portion or groove 39 at a section at which the deformable mold means engages the core rod element so as to provide for a tight sealing engagement between the deformable mold means and the base member 32 during a compacting operation.
  • the deformable mold means may be formed from a single layer of elastomeric material, the compound arrangement which is illustrated is preferred so as to provide for relatively easy replacement of the inner elastomeric sleeve member 36 as is necessary from continued flexing and contact of the inner elastomeric sleeve member with the material being compacted. Also, the compound arrangement allows a use of a softer outer sleeve member 38 (having better flow characteristics during pressurization of the chamber in which it is installed) than would be possible if the same sleeve member were in contact with the material being compacted. The inner and outer elastomeric sleeve members are held together by frictional contact between the two members.
  • the base member 32 also supports a manifold means 40 (FIG. 7), in the form of a rigid sleeve, for distributing fluid to all external surfaces of the deformable mold means.
  • the manifold means 40 is of a significantly smaller external diameter than the diameter of the chamber 22 so as to provide sufficient clearance for a free flow of a pressurizing medium all around the manifold means.
  • the inside diameter and shape of the manifold means is designed to define .the unpressurized con- .dition of the deformable mold means.
  • the isostatic tooling assembly further includes a locating ring means 42 (FIG. 5) for positioning and suspending the isostatic tooling within the chamber of the pressure vessel.
  • the locating ring means 42 comprises a relatively rigid structure, formed from metal or other non-deformable material, for carrying the full weight of the isostatic tooling and its contents when the isostatic tooling is connected thereto and lowered into the chamber of the pressure vessel.
  • a final component of the isostatic tooling comprises an elastomeric plug means 44 (FIG. 2) of special design for insertion into the compacting zone defined by the cavity within the deformable mold means.
  • the deformable plug means 44 includes a recess 46 in one end thereof for receiving a terminal end portion of the core rod element 34 when the deformable plug means is inserted into the deformable mold for closing the deformable mold during a compacting operation.
  • the recess 46 may be formed with a slightly smaller diameter than the outside diameter of the core rod 34 so as to provide a wiping action that cleans the core rod as the plug means is inserted in the deformable mold means.
  • a tapered surface 47 of the plug means functions to block the upper end of the inner elastomeric sleeve 36 to prevent extrusion of the sleeve.
  • FIGS. 1 and 10 When the components of the isostatic tooling of this invention are assembled together and installed in a pressure vessel, certain relationships are established as illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 10. As already discussed, the base member 32 and the core rod element 34 carried thereby establish a precisely centered position for the core rod element within the chamber 22 of the pressure vessel. Further, the bottom (in the orientation of FIGS. 1 and 10) face of the base member 32 functions as a reaction surface for reacting to a force applied thereto by whatever isostatic system is incorporated in the pressure veseel 10. For example, a system which applies a force to a quantity of liquid contained within the chamber 12 of the pressure vessel will result in an application of that force to the bottom face of the base member .32 installed within the smaller diameter chamber 22.
  • the same fluid force is distributed past the base member 32 through grooves 50, formed in its outer surface, so as to apply a force around the entire circumference. and for the full length, of the manifold means.
  • This force is applied to the deformable mold means by a direct contact of the pressurized fluid with outside surfaces of the outer elastomeric sleeve 38 as a result of a flow of pressurized fluid through openings 51 formed through the manifold means 40.
  • the inner and outer elastomeric sleeve members 36 and 38 of the deformable mold assume the general positions and conditions shown in FIG. 10.
  • the deformable mold means is pushed upwardly by the isostatic force applied to the bottom of the base member 32, and, at the same time, the deformable mold means is compressed radially inwardly toward the center axis of the compacting zone. thereby resulting in a thickening of the bottom portions of the deformable mold due to compression of the elastomeric material from which it is made.
  • This action results in a tight sealing engagement between a sealing lip 41 of the outer elastomeric sleeve member 38 and the core rod element 34. Also, this action prevents any tendency for the compacted material to extrude axially as a result of the application of force radially inwardly around the compacting zone defined within the deformable mold means.
  • the locating ring means 42 includes a relatively broad annular face 52 which functions as a sealing face receiving the force of the upper end of the outer elastomeric sleeve 38 as the deformable mold means is pressed upwardly by the base member 32 and the manifold sleeve. In this sense, the locating ring means 42 functions to back up and support a mounting flange 54 provided at the upper end of the outer elastomeric sleeve structure 38.
  • the inner elastomeric sleeve member 36 is provided with a terminal end portion extending beyond the mounting flange of the outer elastomeric sleeve member and is provided with its own mounting flange 56 for being received in sealing engagement with a mounting lip structure 58 of the locating ring means 42.
  • the inner elastomeric sleeve member 36 is provided with an increased diameter band or section 60 which functions to reinforce the inner elastomeric sleeve member at the level where the upper terminal end 54 of the outer elastomeric sleeve member would tend to move inwardly and upwardly along the bore of the mounting lip 58 of the locating ring means 42.
  • Another characteristic of the tooling assembly of this invention is that it provides for an automatic compensation for different volumes of fill of powder in the deformable mold means. It is known that even a precisely measured weight of metal powder will vary slightly in volume from one weighed quantity to another, and yet, it is important that weight be used as a measure for controlling uniformity of the final product. In practice, a
  • the plug means must be of a sufficient dimension to extend downwardly into the mold means far enough to contact the upper surface of the powder contained therein at whatever lowest level (volume of fill) can be expected for the powder. It is essential to prevent any voids between the plug means and the powder because voids or air pockets can result in improperly formed, and even cracked, parts.
  • the plug means is designed to extend downwardly into the mold means for the maximum distance required to contact a low volume level of powder, the same plug means will contact a higher level (greater volume) of powder before full insertion into the mold means. If this happens, the tooling assembly of this invention stretches slightly (downwardly to dotted line position in the FIG. 1 view) during insertion of the plug means into the mold means so as to allow full insertion of the plug means into the open top of the mold means.
