Description

Die Neuerung betrifft ein Regelwendelmaterial für eine in Reihe zu einem Heizdraht geschaltete Regelwendel, das einen hohen Temperaturkoeffizienten des elektrischen Widerstandes besitzt, so daß beim Aufheizen der Heizstrom abgeregelt wird, insbesondere für Flammglühkerzen in Verbrennungsmotoren, wobei das Regelwendelmaterial aus einer Eisen und/oder Nickel enthaltenden Legierung besteht. Solche Legierung sind bspw. nach der EP-A-0 351 883 bekannt.The innovation concerns a rule spiral material for an in Control coil connected in series to a heating wire, one high temperature coefficient of electrical resistance has, so that the heating current is regulated when heating is used, especially for flame glow plugs in internal combustion engines, the control coil material being made of an iron and / or nickel-containing alloy. Such alloy are known, for example, from EP-A-0 351 883.

Eine Flammglühkerze, bei der zur Entflammung des Kraftstoffes eine stromdurchflossene Heizwendel in Reihe zu einer Regelwendel geschaltet ist, die einen relativ hohen Temperaturkoeffizienten des elektrischen Widerstandes aufweist, ist aus GB-A-254 482 bekannt. Hier wird als Regelwendelmaterial mit relativ hohem Temperaturkoeffizienten Eisen, Nickel und Platin vorgeschlagen und erwähnt, daß auch passende Legierungen Verwendung finden können.A flame glow plug, used to ignite the fuel a current-carrying heating coil in series a control coil is switched, which has a relatively high Has temperature coefficients of electrical resistance, is known from GB-A-254 482. Here is used as a rule spiral material with a relatively high temperature coefficient Iron, nickel and platinum suggested and mentioned that suitable alloys can also be used.

Aufgabe der Regelwendel ist es dabei, zunächst bei geringem elektrischem Widerstand einen hohen Strom durch die Heizwendel zuzulassen, während bei Aufheizung von Heiz- und Regelwendel dieser Strom - bedingt durch die relativ starke Widerstandserhöhung der Regelwendel - abgeregelt wird, so daß eine kurze Aufheizzeit der Flammglühkerze erreicht wird, ohne daß ein zu hoher Strom die Heiz- und Regelwendel zerstört und ohne daß es erforderlich ist, eine separate Regelung oder Abschaltung des Stromes vorzunehmen. It is the task of the control coil, initially at low electrical resistance a high current through the heating coil allow while heating up heating and Regulating coil of this current - due to the relatively strong Resistance increase of the control coil - is curtailed, so that a short heating-up time of the flame glow plug is achieved will, without excessive current, the heating and control coil destroyed and without the need for a separate Control or switch off the current.

Der Nachteil der vorgeschlagenen Materialien für eine derartige Regelwendel besteht darin, daß die aggressiven, die Wendel umspülenden Gase relativ schnell zu einer Zerstörung des Regelwendelmaterials durch Oxidation führen.The disadvantage of the proposed materials for one Such a rule consists of the aggressive, the gases flowing around the coil relatively quickly lead to destruction of the control coil material through oxidation.

Aus DE-C-28 02 625 ist es dazu bekanntgeworden, eine Zerstörung der Wendel durch Verbrennungsgase dadurch zu vermeiden, daß man bei einer Glühkerze um Heiz- und Widerstandswendel einen Stab anordnet, der den direkten Kontakt der Wendel mit den Verbrennungsgasen verhindert.From DE-C-28 02 625 it has become known, a Destruction of the coil by combustion gases avoid having a glow plug around heating and Resistance coil arranges a rod that the direct Prevents contact of the filament with the combustion gases.

Insbesondere für Flammglühkerzen benötigt man jedoch eine relativ kleine Oberfläche mit genügend hoher Temperatur, um eine Entzündung des Kraftstoffes zu erreichen, so daß für diesen Anwendungszweck ein die Regel- und Heizwendel umgebender Stab nicht besonders gut geeignet erscheint.However, one is needed especially for flame glow plugs relatively small surface with a sufficiently high temperature to to achieve ignition of the fuel, so that for this application is a control and heating coil surrounding rod does not seem particularly well suited.

Aufgabe der Neuerung ist es nun, ein Regelwendelmaterial anzugeben, bei dem eine Flammglühkerze oder aber auch eine Glühkerze mit in Reihe geschalteter Heiz- und Regelwendel vorgesehen werden kann, bei dem das Material der Regelwendel nach wie vor einen hohen positiven Temperaturkoeffizienten des Widerstandes aufweist, bei dem dieses Material aber zusätzlich eine besondere Korrosionsfestigkeit besitzt, so daß auch der Einsatz in aggressiven Atmosphären, wie z. B. in Räumen mit Verbrennungsgasen ohne zusätzliche Umhüllung möglich ist.The task of the innovation is now a rule spiral material specify where a flame glow plug or one Glow plug with heating and control coil connected in series can be provided in which the material of the control coil still a high positive temperature coefficient of the resistance at which this But the material also has special corrosion resistance has, so that the use in aggressive Atmospheres such as B. in rooms with combustion gases without additional wrapping is possible.

Die Lösung der Aufgabe besteht darin, daß zur Erzielung einer besonderen Korrosionsfestigkeit als Regelwendelmaterial eine Legierung der Formel (Co,Ni) a Feb Bec Cd (Mn,Si)e (Cr,Al,Ti,Nb,Mo,W,V,Cu)f mit in Gew.-% a = 71-99, b = 0-25, c = 1.0-2.0, d = 0-0.02, e = 0-1.0, f = 0-0.9 einschließlich üblicher Verunreinigungen, verwendet wird. The solution to the problem consists in that an alloy of the formula is used to achieve special corrosion resistance as a control spiral material (Co, Ni) a Fe b Be c C d (Mn, Si) e (Cr, Al, Ti, Nb, Mo, W, V, Cu) f with in% by weight a = 71-99, b = 0-25, c = 1.0-2.0, d = 0-0.02, e = 0-1.0, f = 0-0.9 including common impurities.

Es hat sich gezeigt, daß bei einem Zusatz von 1 bis 2 Gew.-% Beryllium im Gegensatz zum Zusatz anderer Elemente, welche die Korrosionsbeständigkeit verbessern, eine besonders gute Korrosionsbeständigkeit erreicht und verhindert wird, daß der Widerstand bei kaltem Material ansteigt. Hierdurch ist es möglich, ein Widerstandsverhältnis von bis zu 7 bei 1000 °C, bezogen auf 20 °C zu verwirklichen. Besondere Vorteile ergeben sich, wenn man beim Erschmelzen der Legierung Zusätze von Elementen der Seltenen Erden vorsieht. Hier sind insbesondere die Elemente Cer, Yttrium, Lanthan, Hafnium und/oder Mischmetall von Vorteil.It has been shown that with an addition of 1 to 2 % By weight of beryllium in contrast to the addition of other elements, which improve corrosion resistance, achieved particularly good corrosion resistance and the resistance to cold material is prevented increases. This makes it possible to have a resistance ratio up to 7 at 1000 ° C, based on 20 ° C too realize. There are special advantages if you when melting the alloy additions of elements of Provides rare earths. Here are the elements in particular Cerium, yttrium, lanthanum, hafnium and / or mixed metal advantageous.
