Definitions
- the present invention is related to malleable metallic gaskets for sealing joints between portions of a fluid pathway.
- interface structures and associated gaskets are well known in the design of fluid delivery systems. These structures include flanges, glands, component connections, and other elements that enable mechanical assembly of various system elements forming an arrangement of interconnected fluid pathways.
- Representative fluid delivery systems are found among industrial equipment producing fine chemicals, petroleum products, or semiconductors, for example, and may be subjected to vacuum or pressure or purity requirements and/or combinations thereof. Fluid pathways among elements intended for manipulating process materials within semiconductor manufacturing equipment usually require attention to maintaining high purity of the delivered reactants, and also typically have a much smaller cross-section than fluid pathways used in petrochemical plants, for example. In many cases, practitioners have found that metallic gaskets provide superior performance, particularly regarding diffusion of process fluid or contaminants through the gasket and consequent resistance to undesirable leakage, in preference over polymer materials.
- One known type of fluid pathway joint uses a ring-shaped flat metallic gasket compressed between nominally identical shaped annular projections that surround circular conduit openings of opposing apparatus elements.
- the annular projections are urged axially toward one another, causing permanent plastic deformation of the ductile metallic gasket to create a seal that will resist leakage of even difficult-to-contain fluids such as helium.
- Representative examples of such joints may be seen, for example, in U.S. Patent No. 3,208,758 issued to Carlson and Wheeler (familiarly known as the Varian ® Conflat ® flange), in U.S. Patent No. 3,521,910 issued to Callahan and Wennerstrom (familiarly known as the Swagelok ® VCR ® fitting), and in U.S. Patent No. 4,303,251, issued to Harra and Nystrom.
- Another known type of fluid pathway joint uses a ring-shaped metallic gasket of complex shape compressed between nominally identical shaped annular projections that surround circular conduit openings of opposing apparatus elements.
- Representative examples of such joints are disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 4,854,597 to Leigh, in U.S. Patent No. 5,505,464 to McGarvey, and in U.S. Patent No. 6,135,155 to Ohmi et al. (an early version of the W-seal joint type well known now in the industry).
- the ⁇ 55 patent additionally provides a separate retainer for holding and centering the gasket during assembly of the joint. Such separate retainer structures may also be seen in U.S. Patent No.
- Yet another known type of fluid pathway joint uses a ring-shaped metallic gasket of complex shape which is compressed between opposing apparatus elements, wherein the face of at least one element has a circular counterbore depression to receive the gasket.
- Representative examples of such joints are disclosed in, for example, U.S. Patent No. 5,354,072 to Nicholson, U.S. Patent No. 6,042,121, to Ma et al, U.S. Patent No. 6,357,760 and U.S. Patent No. 6,688,608, both issued to Doyle, and U.S. Patent No. 6,409,180 issued to Spence and Felber.
- the ⁇ 80 patent to Spence and Felber additionally discloses a separate retainer for holding and centering the gasket during joint assembly.
- Such separate retainer structures may also be seen in U.S. Patent No. 5,730,448 to Swensen et al, U.S. Patent No. 5,984,318 to Kojima and Aoyama, U.S. Patent No. 6,845,984 to Doyle, and U.S. Patent No. 6,945,539 to Whitlow et al.
- Still another known type of fluid pathway joint known in the industry as the Z-Seal type, uses a ring-shaped flat metallic gasket compressed between opposing apparatus elements wherein mating features surrounding circular conduit openings create corners that shear into the gasket.
- This type of corner- shear joint is illustrated in U.S. Patent No. 5,803,507 and U.S. Patent No.
- the present invention addresses the issues noted above, by providing an easily made single-piece malleable metallic gasket, incorporating protection of the sealing regions, that is also self-centering.
- the inventive gasket is a ring-shaped part which may be described as a torus generated by rotating a cross-sectional profile having specific characteristics about the central axis of the ring.
- the gasket form may be conveniently machined from solid stock or tubing using a lathe or screw machine, but other manufacturing processes, such as stamping or coining in conjunction with appropriate annealing, are also contemplated. It will be apparent to practitioners that the benefits of sealing region protection and self-centering may also be obtained with gaskets made by molding or machining polymer materials such as PFA, but the resistance to diffusion of process fluid or contaminants will be reduced.
- the gasket torus typically has an inner diameter corresponding to roughly the inner diameter of the fluid pathway conduits, and an outer diameter proscribed by constraints of the mating apparatus elements.
- the gasket torus has a first axial end surface sealing region that is orthogonal to the axis of the gasket central fluid pathway hole, and is generally flat.
- the gasket torus also has a second axial end surface sealing region, opposite the first axial end surface sealing region, that is orthogonal to the axis of the gasket central fluid pathway hole and is also generally flat.
- the first axial end surface sealing region surrounds an inner raised lip of sufficient axial extent to protect the first end surface sealing region, and has a diameter smaller than the first sealing region.
- the second axial end surface sealing region is surrounded by an outer raised lip of sufficient axial extent to protect the second end surface sealing region, and has a diameter greater than the second sealing region.
- the inner raised lip and outer raised lip may each extend axially a convenient distance (such as 0.010 inch) beyond the corresponding adjacent sealing region.
- the inner raised lip and outer raised lip may have most any convex profile, but a smoothly curved outermost portion with tapering sides is easily machined, and minimizes the chances for snagging or scraping the gasket during fluid delivery assembly in clean room conditions typically used for semiconductor equipment.
- the gasket form may be conveniently machined from solid stock, such as round bar stock, or tubing using a lathe or screw machine, but other manufacturing processes, such as stamping or coining in conjunction with appropriate annealing, are also contemplated. It will be apparent to practitioners that the benefits of sealing region protection and self- centering may also be obtained with gaskets made by molding or machining polymer materials such as PFA, but the resistance to diffusion of process fluid or contaminants will be reduced.
- the round bar stock when used, may be stainless steel or other suitable material, such as Hastelloy C276 or C22.
- Gaskets intended for use with corner-shear joint types will usually have the inner diameter of the flat first axial end surface sealing region be nominally the same as the outer diameter of the flat second axial end surface sealing region.
- Another embodiment of the gasket may have the inner diameter of the flat first axial end surface sealing region be nominally the same as the outer diameter of the flat second axial end surface sealing region.
- Another embodiment of the gasket may have the inner diameter of the first sealing surface be less than the outer diameter of the second sealing surface to ease use with VCR ® joint types.
- a useful variation of the inventive gasket lacks any hole piercing the material of the gasket and thus may function as a blank-off closure that prevents flow through a fluid conduit as is known in the art.
- a further variation of the inventive gasket has one or more small holes piercing the material of the gasket, rather than a large central hole, and thus may function to reduce or limit flow through a fluid conduit as is also known in the art (see U.S. Patent No. 7,874,208 for an example application of this function using a corner-shear joint type).
- a malleable gasket suitable for high purity fluid delivery systems.
- the gasket comprises a first side, an opposed second side, and an outer circumference, and further comprises a raised inner lip on the first side and a raised outer lip on the second side, wherein the raised inner lip and the raised outer lip are
- the gasket is round. It may be metallic, or alternatively made from a polymer. A metallic version of the gasket may be machined from a round bar stock, such as stainless steel or hastelloy.
- the first side of the gasket comprises a flat first sealing region disposed outwardly of the raised inner lip, while the second side of the gasket comprises a flat second sealing region disposed inwardly of the raised outer lip.
- the first side of the gasket is a mirror image of the second side of the gasket.
- the first side of the gasket further comprises a circular sector forming a part of the raised inner lip, an outward tapering portion extending from the circular sector, and a smooth curve extending outwardly from the tapering portion and joining the flat first sealing region.
- the second side of the gasket further comprises a circular sector forming a part of the raised outer lip, an inwardly tapering portion extending from the circular sector, and a smooth curve extending inwardly from the tapering portion and joining the flat second sealing region.
- The comprises a torus having an inner circumference defining a central axial bore, and each of the flat first sealing region and the flat second sealing region are substantially orthogonal to the axis of the central axial bore.
- the gasket is disposed in a sealing arrangement within a fluid passageway formed by assembled members having a joint comprising each of a joint counterbore portion and a joint groove portion, a counterbore corner extending from the joint counterbore portion and a groove portion corner extending from the joint groove portion, and further wherein the inner raised lip aligns the gasket with the joint counterbore portion and the outer raised lip aligns the gasket with the joint groove portion, such that when the joint is completely assembled, the counterbore corner shears into the gasket first sealing region and the groove portion corner shears into the gasket second sealing region.

- FIG. 1 one embodiment of a gasket 10 constructed in accordance with the principles of the present invention.
- the gasket 10 has an inner raised lip 20 and a smooth straight central axial bore 40, wherein the inner raised lip 20 begins as a nominally 30 degree outward taper 21 therefrom. Upon reaching an axial extent of
- the outward taper 21 turns into a smooth curve directed outwardly with a radius of approximately 0.006" to form a circular sector 22 of approximately 90 degrees extent, and then begins a further outward taper 23 of nominally 45 degrees in the reverse axial direction.
- the further outward taper 23 Upon nearly reaching the same axial location as the start of the outward taper 21 , the further outward taper 23 turns into a smooth curve 24, which is directed further outward with a radius of approximately 0.004", and joints a flat first axial end surface region 30 that is orthogonal to the axis of the gasket central axial bore 40 which defines the fluid pathway hole.
- the flat first sealing region 30 extends radially approximately 0.005" outward, then turns into a smooth curve directed outwardly with a radius of approximately 0.020", forming a circular sector 26 of approximately 90 degrees extent, whereupon the straight wall of a gasket outside diameter 50 is formed parallel to the central axis.
- the profile of an outer raised lip 60 and flat second sealing region 70 transition from the gasket outside diameter 50 are mirror images of the corresponding inner raised lip 20 and flat first sealing region 30.
- the gasket 10 has a smooth straight outside diameter 50 and an outer raised lip 60, beginning as a nominally 30 degree inward taper 61 therefrom.
- the inward taper 61 Upon reaching an axial extent of approximately 0.007", the inward taper 61 turns into a smooth curve, directed inwardly with a radius of approximately 0.006", forming a circular sector 62 of approximately 90 degrees extent, and then begins a further inward taper 63 of nominally 45 degrees in the reverse axial direction.
- the further inward taper 63 Upon nearly reaching the same axial location as the start of the 30 degree taper 61, the further inward taper 63 turns into a smooth curve 64 directed further inwardly with a radius of approximately 0.004" and joins the flat axial second end surface sealing region 70 that is orthogonal to the axis of the gasket central axial bore 40 which defines the fluid pathway hole.
- the flat second sealing region 70 extends radially approximately 0.005" inwardly, then turns into a smooth curve directed inwardly with a radius of approximately 0.020" forming a circular sector 66 of approximately 90 degrees extend, whereupon the straight wall of the gasket smooth central axial bore 40 is formed parallel to the central axis.
- the axial spacing between the first sealing region 30 and the second sealing region 70 may be chosen for convenience according to particular dimensions of the corresponding apparatus elements wherein the gasket will be used.
- an axial spacing of approximately 0.058" allows the gasket to be used with planar corner-shear joint types intended to provide a nominal gasket compression of 0.012" when completely assembled.
- the corner-shear joint mating features may be located at various recessed axial depths within the corresponding apparatus elements, and the same one embodiment may be used with these different combinations.
- the gasket 10 may be conveniently machined from solid stock, such as round bar stock, or tubing using a lathe or screw machine, but other
- the upper and lower device conduit ports 364, 324 usually have the corner features 362, 322 sharpened by lapping the flat surface of the joined elements, which necessarily places the corner features 362, 322 at opposing interface surfaces 365, 325.
- the joint is best assembled by interposing a thick shim 310 between the opposing interface surfaces 365, 325 to ensure the desired compression (typically 0.012") of the gasket 10 is achieved and also to provide a hard stop when the full fastener force is applied.
- the inventive gasket 10 may be used with corner-shear joint mating features, wherein some element features have been recessed.
- the inner raised lip 20 aligns the gasket 10 with a joint counterbore portion 420 and the outer raised lip 60 aligns the gasket 10 with a joint groove portion 460.
- a counterbore corner 422 will shear into the gasket first sealing region 30 and a groove portion corner 462 will shear into the gasket second sealing region 70.
- the gasket central axial bore 40 has approximately the same diameter as an upper element conduit port 464, which usually also has the same diameter as a lower element conduit port 424.
- the lower device conduit port 424 has a joint counterbore portion 420 and its corner feature 422 placed within a slightly larger counterbore 423 and recessed below a lower element surface 425.
- the joint groove portion 460 corner feature 462 may optionally be sharpened by lapping the flat surface of the upper element.
- the joint is assembled without any shim between the opposing interface surfaces 465, 425, since the desired compression (typically 0.012") of the gasket 10 is achieved by selecting the depth of the larger counterbore 423, and a hard stop still occurs when the full fastener force is applied.
- a similar combination of planar lower element design and recessed upper element design can also be implemented, but is not illustrated in the interest of brevity.
- the inventive gasket 10 may be used with corner- shear joint mating features wherein element features have been symmetrically recessed.
- the inner raised lip 20 aligns the gasket 10 with a joint counterbore portion 520 and the outer raised lip 60 aligns the gasket 10 with a joint groove portion 560.
- a counterbore corner 522 will shear into the gasket first sealing region 30 and a groove portion corner 562 will shear into the gasket second sealing region 70.
- the gasket central axial bore 40 has approximately the same diameter as an upper element conduit port 564, which usually also has the same diameter as a lower element conduit port 524.
- the lower device conduit port 524 has the joint counterbore portion 520 and its corner feature 522 placed within a slightly larger additional counterbore 523 and recessed below an element surface 525.
- the upper device conduit port 564 has the joint groove portion 560 and its corner feature 562 placed within a deeper additional counterbore 563 and recessed above an element surface 565.
- the joint is assembled without any shim between the opposing interface surfaces 525, 565 since the desired compression (typically 0.012") of the gasket 10 is achieved by selecting the depth of the matching additional counterbores 523, 563 and a hard stop still occurs when the full fastener force is applied.
- the inner raised lip 20 and the outer raised lip 60 are radially displaced with respect to one another (as may be seen in Fig. 2) in all embodiments of the inventive gasket 10, because they originate from opposing edges of the sealing regions 30, 70.
