Abstract

The invention concerns a vacuum pump, in particular a high-vacuum pump, with a rotor which forms, together with a stator and, optionally, a second rotor, a lubricant-free pump chamber through which the gases being pumped pass. In order to be able to operate the rotor(s) at high speeds, the invention proposes that the rotor(s) (7, 8) are made at least partly of an aluminium-lithium alloy.

Description

Vakuumpumpe mit RotorVacuum pump with rotor
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Vakuumpumpe, insbeson¬ dere Hochvakuumpumpe, mit einem Rotor, der gemeinsam mit einem Stator und gegebenenfalls mit einem weiteren Rotor einen schmiermittelfreien, von den zu fördernden Gasen durchströmten Förderraum bildet.The invention relates to a vacuum pump, in particular a high vacuum pump, with a rotor which, together with a stator and optionally with a further rotor, forms a lubricant-free delivery space through which the gases to be conveyed flow.
Zu Vakuumpumpen der erwähnten Art gehören zum einen Reibungs- Vakuumpumpen, wie Turbovakuumpumpen (axial, radial), Mole¬ kularvakuumpumpen, Turbomolekularvakuumpumpen und Kombina¬ tionen dieser Pumpen, die häufig mit Hybrid- oder Compound- pumpen bezeichnet werden. Zum anderen werden auch Wälzkol¬ ben- und Klauenvakuumpumpen mit schmiermittelfreien Schöpf¬ räumen (Förderräumen) betrieben und gehören somit zu den gattungsgemäßen Vakuumpumpen. Bei diesen ein- oder mehrstu¬ fig ausgebildeten Vakuumpumpen befindet sich im Schöpfraum jeweils ein Rotorpaar, das gemeinsam mit dem Gehäuse (Sta¬ tor) den Förderraum bildet.Vacuum pumps of the type mentioned include friction vacuum pumps such as turbo vacuum pumps (axial, radial), molecular vacuum pumps, turbomolecular vacuum pumps and combinations of these pumps, which are often referred to as hybrid or compound pumps. On the other hand, Roots and Claw vacuum pumps are also operated with lubricant-free scoops (delivery rooms) and thus belong to the generic vacuum pumps. In these single-stage or multi-stage vacuum pumps, there is a pair of rotors in the scoop chamber, which together with the housing (stator) forms the delivery chamber.
Das Saugvermögen der hier betroffenen Vakuumpumpen hängt maßgeblich von der Drehzahl des bzw. der Rotoren ab. Sie werden deshalb mit möglichst hohen Drehzahlen betrieben.. Der Erhöhung der Drehzahl sind jedoch Grenzen gesetzt, die maßgeblich von der Festigkeit des Rotormaterials abhängen. Zu berücksichtigen ist dabei, daß Vakuumpumpen der erwähnten Art häufig zur wiederholten Evakuierung von Vakuumkammern eingesetzt werden, in denen Ätzprozesse, Beschichtungspro- zesse und chemische Prozesse der verschiedensten Art durch¬ geführt werden. Insbesondere bei Ätzprozessen haben die von der Vakuumpumpe zu fördernden Gase eine erhöhte Temperatur (beispielsweise 120° C). Da die Festigkeit eines Werkstoffes mit steigender Temperatur abnimmt, muß die Höchstdrehzahl- grenze umso niedriger gewählt werden, je höher die Betriebs¬ temperatur ist.The pumping speed of the vacuum pumps affected here largely depends on the speed of the rotor or rotors. They are therefore operated at the highest possible speeds. However, there are limits to increasing the speed, which depend largely on the strength of the rotor material. It should be taken into account here that vacuum pumps of the type mentioned are frequently used for repeated evacuation of vacuum chambers in which etching processes, coating processes and chemical processes of the most varied types are carried out. In the case of etching processes in particular, the gases to be conveyed by the vacuum pump have an elevated temperature (for example 120 ° C.). Because the strength of a material decreases with increasing temperature, the lower the maximum speed limit, the higher the operating temperature.
Bei modernen Turbomolekularvakuumpumpen werden warmaushärt- bare Legierungen vom Typ AlMgSi oder auch AlCuSiMn als Rotorwerkstoff eingesetzt. Die Drehzahlen liegen beispiels¬ weise bei einem Rotor mit einem Durchmesser von 130 (mm) bei rd. 50.000 U/min.In modern turbomolecular vacuum pumps, heat-hardenable alloys of the type AlMgSi or AlCuSiMn are used as the rotor material. The speeds, for example in the case of a rotor with a diameter of 130 (mm), are approx. 50,000 rpm.
Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Vakuumpumpe der eingangs erwähnten Art zu schaffen, deren Rotor bzw. deren Rotoren mit erhöhten Drehzahlen betrieben werden können.The present invention has for its object to provide a vacuum pump of the type mentioned, the rotor or the rotors can be operated at increased speeds.
Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, daß der Rotor zumindest teilweise aus einer Aluminium-Lithium-Legie¬ rung besteht. Vorzugsweise liegt der Lithium-Legierungsan¬ teil zwischen 0,5 % und 10 %. Die besten Erfahrungen werden bisher mit Legierungen mit einem Li-Legierungsanteil zwi¬ schen 1,5 % und 3 % gemacht. Werkstoffe dieser Art sind im Aufsatz von A.K. Vasudevan und R.D. Doherty "Aluminium Alloys - Contemporary Research and Applications", ACADEMIC PRESS, INC., 1989 beschrieben.According to the invention, this object is achieved in that the rotor consists at least partially of an aluminum-lithium alloy. The lithium alloy proportion is preferably between 0.5% and 10%. The best experience so far has been made with alloys with a Li alloy content between 1.5% and 3%. Materials of this type are described in A.K. Vasudevan and R.D. Doherty "Aluminum Alloys - Contemporary Research and Applications", ACADEMIC PRESS, INC., 1989.
Werkstoffe dieser Art sind leichter als die bisher verwen¬ deten. Neben der sehr hohen Festigkeit' im Bereich der höchstfesten Legierungen vom Typ AlZnMgCu besitzen die AlLi-Legierungen die höchste Steifigkeit (E-Modul) aller genormten Al-Knet- und Gußlegierungen. Vakuumpumpen, deren Rotoren zumindest in den Bereichen hoher Fliehkraftbelastung aus AlLi-Werkstoffen bestehen, können so mit erhöhten Drehzahlen betrieben werden. Bei Turbomolekularpumpen können die Rotor-Drehzahlen, je nach bisher verwendeter Al-Legie- rung, um bis zu rd. 10 % erhöht werden. Überraschenderweise ist die Erfindung noch mit einem weite¬ ren wesentlichen Vorteil verbunden. Bei den erwähnten Einsätzen - Evakuierung von Vakuumkammern, in denen chemi¬ sche Prozesse, Ätzprozesse, Beschichtungsprozesse usw. ablaufen - fallen vielfach aggressive Gase, insbesondere Halogene und deren Verbindungen, an. Diese verursachen bevorzugt an den Rotoren der verwendeten Vakuumpumpen Korrosionen, die das Saugvermögen der Vakuumpumpe sehr schnell beeinträchtigen können. Zur Vermeidung dieser Korrosionen ist es bekannt, die aus den üblichen Alumini¬ um-Werkstoffen bestehenden Rotoren zu beschichten. Diese Verfahren sind aufwendig. Überraschenderweise hat sich der erfindungsgemäße Aluminium-Lithium-Werkstoff als nahezu korrosionsfest erwiesen. Aufwendige Maßnahmen zum Schutz der Oberfläche des Rotors vor den anfallenden aggressiven Gasen sind nicht mehr erforderlich.Materials of this type are lighter than those previously used. Besides the very high strength 'in the field of ultra high-strength alloys of the type AlZnMgCu the AlLi alloys have the highest stiffness (modulus) of all standardized Al wrought and cast alloys. Vacuum pumps, the rotors of which are made of AlLi materials at least in the areas of high centrifugal force, can be operated at higher speeds. With turbomolecular pumps, the rotor speeds can be up to approx. 10% can be increased. Surprisingly, the invention is associated with a further substantial advantage. In the operations mentioned - evacuation of vacuum chambers in which chemical processes, etching processes, coating processes etc. take place - aggressive gases, in particular halogens and their compounds, occur in many cases. These preferably cause corrosion on the rotors of the vacuum pumps used, which can quickly impair the pumping speed of the vacuum pump. In order to avoid this corrosion, it is known to coat the rotors, which consist of the usual aluminum materials. These procedures are complex. Surprisingly, the aluminum-lithium material according to the invention has proven to be almost corrosion-resistant. Elaborate measures to protect the surface of the rotor from the aggressive gases are no longer necessary.
Vorzugsweise besteht nur der Rotor bzw. bestehen nur die Rotoren der Vakuumpumpe - zumindest teilweise - aus der vorgeschlagenen Aluminium-Lithium-Legierung, da allein durch diese Maßnahme die erhöhte Rotor-Festigkeit, erreicht wird. Für den Fall, daß der Korrosionsschutz im Vordergrund steht, ist es zweckmäßig, daß auch der Stator - oder zumindest die dem Rotor zugewandte Oberfläche des Stators - aus der Aluminium-Lithium-Legierung besteht. Selbst beim Anfall von 100 % Chlor können durch diese Maßnahme hohe Standzeiten der Vakuumpumpen erreicht werden.Preferably, only the rotor or only the rotors of the vacuum pump consist - at least partially - of the proposed aluminum-lithium alloy, since this measure alone achieves the increased rotor strength. In the event that corrosion protection is in the foreground, it is expedient that the stator - or at least the surface of the stator facing the rotor - consists of the aluminum-lithium alloy. Even when 100% chlorine is produced, this measure can achieve long service lives for the vacuum pumps.
Das Figurenblatt zeigt schematisch vier Beispiele für Vakuumpumpen der hier betroffenen Art. Im einzelnen handelt es sich um eine Turbomolekularvakuumpumpe 1 (Figur 1), Wälzkolbenvakuumpumpe 2 (Figur 2), Klauenpumpe 3 (Schnitt durch eine Stufe, Figur 3) sowie Turbovakuumpumpe 4 (Figur 4). Alle Pumpen bzw. Pumpenstufen haben einen Einlaß 5 und einen Auslaß 6. Zwischen Einlaß 5 und Auslaß 6 befinden sich die Rotoren 7 bzw. Rotorpaare 8, 9. Diese bilden gemeinsam mit einem Stator 11 bzw. mit dem Gehäuse 12 einen Förderraum 13, der von den gepumpten Gasen durchströmt wird.The figure sheet schematically shows four examples of vacuum pumps of the type concerned here. In particular, it is a turbomolecular vacuum pump 1 (FIG. 1), Roots vacuum pump 2 (FIG. 2), claw pump 3 (section through a stage, FIG. 3) and turbo vacuum pump 4 (FIG 4). All pumps or pump stages have an inlet 5 and an outlet 6. Between the inlet 5 and outlet 6 there are the rotors 7 or pairs of rotors 8, 9. These form together with a stator 11 or with the housing 12, a delivery chamber 13 through which the pumped gases flow.
Die Rotoren 7, 8, 9 bestehen aus einer Aluminium-Lithium- Legierung, zweckmäßig aus dem Werkstoff 8090 oder 8090A (vgl. Tabelle I im o.a. Aufsatz). Aufgrund der erhöhten Festigkeit und Steifigkeit der Rotoren können diese mit erhöhten Drehzahlen betrieben werden. Zusätzlich sind sie korrosionsfest. Um eine Korrosionsfestigkeit auch bei den Statoren 11, 12 zu erreichen, können diese ebenfalls aus einem der angegebenen Werkstoffe bestehen oder zumindest förderraumseitig damit beschichtet sein. The rotors 7, 8, 9 consist of an aluminum-lithium alloy, expediently made of the material 8090 or 8090A (see Table I in the above article). Due to the increased strength and rigidity of the rotors, they can be operated at higher speeds. They are also corrosion-resistant. In order to achieve a corrosion resistance also with the stators 11, 12, these can likewise consist of one of the specified materials or at least be coated with them on the delivery chamber side.
