The invention provides an automatic continuous production device for rapid hot-pressing sintering, which comprises a sintering cavity and a glove box, wherein,
the sintering cavity is internally provided with a graphite die, an upper pressure head and a lower pressure head which are respectively connected with different electrodes, and the upper pressure head and the lower pressure head relatively move and clamp the graphite die between the upper pressure head and the lower pressure head;
the glove box is internally filled with protective atmosphere and is internally provided with a manipulator capable of clamping the graphite mold; the glove box is connected with the sintering cavity through an openable connecting device.
The protective atmosphere is nitrogen; the manipulator is a six-degree-of-freedom manipulator, and the bottom of the manipulator is arranged on a moving track, so that the manipulator can move along the moving track. The movable area of the six-degree-of-freedom manipulator can be greatly increased through the movable track, so that the manipulator can take out the graphite mold in the sintering cavity conveniently and can be placed in the glove box neatly.
And a heat exchanger is arranged in the glove box and is connected with an external water cooling device. And heat exchange is carried out on the protective atmosphere in the glove box through the heat exchanger, so that the graphite mold in the glove box is rapidly cooled.
One of the upper pressure head and the lower pressure head is driven by a driving mechanism to enable the upper pressure head and the lower pressure head to move towards each other. According to the technical scheme, the driving mechanism which is vertically driven is arranged on the upper pressing head, and the upper pressing head can be driven to move downwards.
The electrode is internally provided with a cooling cavity, and water is introduced into the cooling cavity through the water cooling device to cool the cooling cavity. The cooling chamber of the electrode can enable the electrode to be rapidly cooled, so that rapid and continuous production of the sintering chamber is ensured.
The electrode includes, electrode holder, electrode cover and condenser tube, wherein:
the electrode seat is correspondingly connected with the electrode cover to form a closed cooling cavity;
the electrode cover is of a barrel-shaped structure, the front end of the electrode cover is provided with a hot-pressing plane, the outer layer of the electrode cover is a stainless steel layer, the inner layer of the electrode cover is a copper layer, and the outer layer is connected with the inner layer;
the cooling water pipe is arranged on the surface of the electrode seat in the cooling cavity, the water outlet of the cooling water pipe is close to or abutted against the inner surface of the hot pressing plane, and a water drainage channel and a water inlet channel communicated with the cooling water pipe are correspondingly arranged on the electrode seat. According to the technical scheme, the hot-pressing plane is directly cooled through the cooling water pipe, so that the cooling effect is better; through the structure of interior copper outer steel, not only guaranteed hot pressing intensity, also ensured low resistivity and high heat conduction efficiency's technical requirement simultaneously, adopted the copper product as the inner wall of cooling chamber simultaneously, can reduce the corruption, guarantee the durability of product.
A boss which is matched with the inner diameter of the electrode cover in size is arranged at the front end of the electrode seat, so that the boss can be assembled in the electrode cover, a sealing groove and a sealing ring which is embedded in the sealing groove are arranged around the boss, and the sealing ring is in sealing connection with the inner layer of the electrode cover; the outer layer of the electrode cover is fixedly connected to the electrode seat through screws. Through the connected mode of boss, sealing washer and electrode cover, can effectively guarantee that whole cooling chamber that is used for the cooling has good leakproofness, can not lead to the leakage of coolant liquid, guarantee the safe operation of equipment.
The electrode cover is in a barrel shape. The cylindrical electrode cover is smaller in processing difficulty and better in structural stability, and meanwhile, based on the following technical scheme, the cyclone flow is more favorable to be formed, and the cyclone flow is fully contacted with the electrode cover in the flowing process so as to achieve the effect of cooling the inner wall of the electrode cover.
The thickness of the outer layer is smaller than that of the inner layer, so that the influences of low heat conductivity, high resistance and low current transmission efficiency of the stainless steel of the outer layer are further reduced, and the structural performance is optimized.
The water inlet channels are provided with more than two water inlets which are uniformly distributed on the electrode base and extend radially to the edge of the electrode base along the boss.
The cooling water pipes are arranged in two and symmetrically distributed in the cooling cavity.
The cooling water pipe is abutted to the inner surface of the hot pressing plane of the electrode cover, and a notch is arranged at the edge of the water outlet of the cooling water pipe. The abutting part of the cooling water pipe has a blocking effect on the cooling water, and the cooling water is forced to flow out from a channel formed between the notch and the inner surface of the hot pressing plane, so that the flow speed of water flow can be locally increased, and the cooling effect of the water flow is improved.
And grooves are formed in the inner surface of the hot pressing plane, corresponding to the positions of the cooling water pipes, and the size of the grooves is larger than that of the pipe orifices of the cooling water pipes. The water flow sprayed by the cooling water pipe firstly impacts the groove, then overflows to the periphery after passing through the groove, the groove and the surrounding electrodes can be rapidly cooled, and meanwhile, the groove is closer to the outer layer, so that the outer layer adjacent to the groove can be rapidly cooled.
Optionally, the indentations are arranged in a plurality of circumferential arrangements around the cooling water pipe. Water flows are sprayed to different directions through a plurality of notches, so that cooling water can cool the hot pressing plane, and the water flows in the mode can directly flow to the inlet of the drain channel of the electrode seat in an approximately straight line mode after being sprayed.
Alternatively, the notch is arranged on one side of the connecting line between the center of the cooling water pipe and the center of the electrode cover, and the two cooling water pipes are arranged in a central symmetry mode relative to the center of the electrode cover. The cooling water pipes at the non-notch positions are abutted with the electrode covers, so that cooling water is blocked, the cooling water can flow only in the notch direction, and the cooling water flowing out of the notches of the two cooling water pipes can form rotational flow around the center through the two cooling water pipes which are symmetrically arranged in the center, so that the cooling water can be in more full contact with the cooling surface. Compared with the gap structure which is randomly arranged in the axial direction, the cooling blind area (area with slow water flow speed) can be greatly reduced by adopting a mode of combining single-side arrangement and central symmetry arrangement, water flows are enabled to rotate around the inner surface of the hot-pressing sheet surface under the action of two cooling water pipes to be fully contacted and cooled, then the water flows and advances along the barrel-shaped inner wall of the electrode cover in the direction of the electrode seat in a spiral shape under the centrifugal action, finally, the water flows are discharged through the inlet of the water drainage channel on the electrode seat, the action path of the water flows is prolonged, the side wall of the electrode cover is cooled more effectively, the action complements the cooling action of the hot-pressing plane, and the whole electrode cover is cooled effectively. Compared with the common cooling structure for directly impacting the inner surface of the hot pressing plane, the cooling structure can prolong the running path of cooling water by more than 3 times, the higher the water flow speed is, the longer the running path of the cooling water is, and the optimal running path calculated by theory can be expected to reach nearly 10 times.
Further alternatively, the notch is a whole, a half-arc structure is formed along the half circumference of the pipe orifice of the cooling water pipe, and the height of the notch is far smaller than the pipe diameter of the cooling water pipe. Through a flat gap distributed in the half circumference, a fan-shaped area close to a 180-degree angle is ejected, and a whole area rotational flow with a whole 360-degree angle is formed under the combined action of two cooling water pipes, so that the cooling is faster and more uniform.
Or, further optionally, the notch includes a first notch and a second notch, where the first notch is oriented in a direction forming an angle of 30-45 degrees with a line connecting the center of the self-cooling water pipe and the center of the electrode cover, and the second notch is oriented in a direction forming an angle of 90-120 degrees with a line connecting the center of the self-cooling water pipe and the center of the electrode cover. The orientation refers to the orientation of the notch center. The water flows from the two first notches can form a rotational flow with smaller radius, cool a round area of the hot pressing plane close to the center, the water flows from the two second notches can form a rotational flow with larger radius, cool an area of the edge of the hot pressing plane, and then four water flows flow spirally along the barrel-shaped inner wall of the electrode cover to the direction of the electrode holder under the action of centrifugal force, and finally are discharged along the inlet of the drainage channel.
Optionally, the water outlet of the cooling water pipe is close to the inner surface of the hot pressing plane, and the pipe orifice of the cooling water pipe is inclined and flat, so that an acute angle of not more than 30 degrees is formed between the water flow outgoing direction of the cooling water pipe and the inner surface of the hot pressing plane. Through the design of the flat pipe orifice structure, water flow can be emitted to a larger area, and the water flow is fully contacted with the inner surface of the hot pressing plane for heat dissipation; through the structural design of inclination, avoided direct and hot pressing planar internal surface contact to make the fluid can form the whirl to hot pressing planar whole internal surface cooling, can not lead to partial region to hinder the fluid to form the slower blind area of velocity of flow because of the contact.
The implementation of the invention has the following beneficial effects:
according to the automatic continuous production device provided by the invention, the manipulator capable of moving along the moving track is arranged in the glove box filled with the protective atmosphere, so that the graphite mold in the sintering cavity is quickly replaced in the glove box, and the high-temperature graphite mold is quickly cooled in the protective atmosphere, thereby being beneficial to realizing automatic continuous production and greatly improving the production efficiency; in addition, the potential safety hazard caused by manually taking out the die at the high temperature stage can be avoided.

The water flow sprayed from the cooling water pipe 13 firstly impacts the groove 1221, then overflows to the periphery after passing through the groove 1221, so that the groove 1221 and the surrounding electrodes can be rapidly cooled, and meanwhile, the groove 1221 is closer to the outer layer, so that the outer layer adjacent to the groove 1221 can be rapidly cooled.
Alternatively, the indentations are provided in a plurality of circumferential arrangements around the cooling water pipe 13 (as shown in fig. 4-5). The water flows are sprayed in different directions through the plurality of notches 131, so that the cooling water can cool the hot pressing plane, and the water flows in the mode directly flow to the inlet of the water drainage channel 113 of the electrode holder 11 in an approximately straight line mode after being sprayed.
Alternatively, the notch is provided in a single-sided arrangement with respect to the line connecting the center of the cooling water pipe 13 and the center of the electrode housing 12, and the two cooling water pipes 13 are arranged in a central symmetry with respect to the center of the electrode housing 12 (as shown in fig. 6 to 12). The cooling water pipes 13 at the non-notch positions are abutted with the electrode covers 12, so that cooling water is blocked, the cooling water can only flow in the notch direction, and the cooling water flowing out of the notches of the two cooling water pipes 13 can form rotational flow around the center through the two cooling water pipes 13 which are symmetrically arranged at the center, so that the cooling water can be in more full contact with the cooling surface. Compared with the gap structure which is randomly arranged in the axial direction, the cooling blind area (area with slow water flow speed) can be greatly reduced by adopting a mode of combining single-side arrangement and central symmetry arrangement, the water flows are enabled to rotate around the inner surface of the hot-pressed sheet surface under the action of the two cooling water pipes 13 to be fully contacted and cooled, then flow forwards along the barrel-shaped inner wall of the electrode cover 12 in a spiral shape along the direction of the electrode seat 11 under the centrifugal action, and finally are discharged through the inlet of the water discharge channel 113 on the electrode seat 11, so that the action path of the water flows is prolonged, the side wall of the electrode cover 12 is cooled further and more effectively, the action complements the cooling action of the hot-pressed plane, and the whole electrode cover 12 is cooled effectively. Compared with the common cooling structure for directly impacting the inner surface of the hot pressing plane, the cooling structure can prolong the running path of cooling water by more than 3 times, the higher the water flow speed is, the longer the running path of the cooling water is, and the optimal running path calculated by theory can be expected to reach nearly 10 times.
Further alternatively, the notch is formed as a single piece, a half arc structure is formed along the half circumference of the nozzle of the cooling water pipe 13, and the height of the notch is much smaller than the pipe diameter of the cooling water pipe 13 (as shown in fig. 8-10). Through a flat gap distributed in the half circumference, a fan-shaped area close to a 180-degree angle is ejected, and a whole area rotational flow with a whole 360-degree angle is formed under the combined action of the two cooling water pipes 13, so that the cooling is faster and more uniform.
In particular, in order to further reduce the blind area where the water flow speed is slow, as shown in fig. 9, on the other side of the pipe orifice of the cooling water pipe where the notch is not provided, a water blocking inclined plate 132 extending obliquely to the bottom edge of the notch and crossing the diameter is provided, and the water blocking inclined plate 132 can guide and block the water flow at the outlet of the cooling water pipe, reduce the slow water flow area at the outlet of the cooling water pipe due to the blocking of the electrode cover 12, and further guide the rotational flow by the inclined surface of the water blocking inclined plate 132 in the process of forming the rotational flow in the cooling chamber after the cooling water flows out of the cooling water pipe 13, thereby avoiding the blind area caused by slow water flow speed due to vertical contact.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 6-7, the notch 131 includes a first notch 1311 and a second notch 1312, where the first notch is oriented at an angle a of 30-45 degrees with respect to the line connecting the center of the self-cooling water pipe 13 and the center of the electrode cover 12, and the second notch is oriented at an angle B of 90-120 degrees with respect to the line connecting the center of the self-cooling water pipe 13 and the center of the electrode cover 12. The orientation refers to the orientation of the notch center. The water flows from the two first notches can form a rotational flow with smaller radius to cool a round area of the hot pressing plane close to the center, the water flows from the two second notches can form a rotational flow with larger radius to cool an area of the edge of the hot pressing plane, and then four water flows flow spirally along the barrel-shaped inner wall of the electrode cover 12 towards the electrode seat 11 under the action of centrifugal force, and finally are discharged along the inlet of the drainage channel 113.
Alternatively, the water outlet of the cooling water pipe 13 is close to the inner surface of the hot pressing plane, and the nozzle 133 of the cooling water pipe 13 is formed in an inclined flat shape (as shown in fig. 11-12), so that the water flow outgoing direction of the cooling water pipe 13 forms an acute angle of not more than 30 degrees with the inner surface of the hot pressing plane. Through the design of the flat pipe orifice structure, water flow can be emitted to a larger area, and the water flow is fully contacted with the inner surface of the hot pressing plane for heat dissipation; through the structural design of inclination, avoided direct and hot pressing planar internal surface contact to make the fluid can form the whirl to hot pressing planar whole internal surface cooling, can not lead to partial region to hinder the fluid to form the slower blind area of velocity of flow because of the contact.
According to the electrode provided by the invention, copper is used as a main heat transfer part of the electrode, the stainless steel is coated on the outer layer, the overall electric conduction and thermal conduction of the electrode are good, and meanwhile, when the electrode is heated integrally, the deformation, notch and fracture of the electrode can not occur in the working process due to the high hardness, tensile strength, bending resistance and oxidation resistance of the outer layer stainless steel electrode, so that the normal working of the rapid hot-pressing sintering furnace can be ensured. The electrode is internally designed with a water-cooling structure, and when the sample sintering is finished, the water-cooling structure can rapidly cool the electrode through a circulating water system, so that the electrode can be ensured to be normally sintered by rapid hot pressing in continuous operation.
