Description

Stand der TechnikState of the art

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Herstellung von Verbundkörpern und insbesondere von zylindrischen keramischen Verbundkörpern von Glühstiftkerzen, bei dem die zu verbindenden Einzelteile jeweils aus verschiedenem Material durch Kaltpressen vorgeformt, in einem Fügeschritt zusammengefügt, in einem Warmpressvorgang verbunden und anschließend in einem Konfektioniervorgang in ihre endgültige Form gebracht werden, sowie eine Pressvorrichtung, die als Mehrfachnutzen eingerichtet ist und zur Herstellung der Verbundkörper dient.The invention relates to a method for producing Composite bodies and in particular cylindrical ceramic Composite bodies of glow plugs, in which the individual parts to be connected each from different Material preformed by cold pressing, in one joining step assembled, connected in a hot pressing process and then in a manufacturing process in their final form, as well as a Press device, which is set up as a multiple use and serves to manufacture the composite body.

Bei einem solchen, von der Robert Bosch GmbH ausgeführten, bekannten Verfahren zur Herstellung von zylindrischen Keramikkörpern von Glühstiftkerzen wird zunächst mit einem Kaltpressverfahren eine Keramikisolierschicht und separat davon werden die zu beiden Seiten der Isolierschicht liegenden Leitschichten hergestellt. Dann wird die Isolierschicht zwischen die Leitschichten eingelegt und zunächst mit einem Kaltpressschritt verbunden. Dann erfolgt in einem Warmpressverfahren die Vernetzung des Harzes und die Ausbildung des Verbundes. Schließlich werden die Verbundplatten in Vierkantstäbe gesägt und zu ihrer Konfektionierung profilgeschliffen. Aufgrund der beiden zur Herstellung eines Verbundkörpers notwendigen Pressschritte, nämlich dem Kaltpressen und dem Warmpressen, werden verschiedenartige Pressformen und auch der Wechsel von einer Pressform zur anderen nötig. Ferner ist die Zerteilung der ausgehärteten Verbundplatten in Vierkantstäbe und das anschließende Rundschleifen derselben aufwendig und teuer. Auf die DE-A-3 519 437 wird auch verwiesen.In such a case, carried out by Robert Bosch GmbH, known method for the production of cylindrical Ceramic bodies of glow plugs will initially a ceramic insulation layer using a cold pressing process and separately from that on either side of the Insulating layer lying conductive layers. Then becomes the insulating layer between the guiding layers inserted and first with a cold pressing step connected. Then in a hot pressing process Crosslinking of the resin and formation of the network. Finally, the composite panels are made into square bars sawn and profile ground for assembly. Because of the two to produce a composite body necessary pressing steps, namely the cold pressing and hot pressing, various types of press molds and the change from one mold to another is also necessary. Furthermore, the hardened composite panels are divided into square bars and the subsequent cylindrical grinding the same complex and expensive. To DE-A-3 519 437 is also referred.

Aufgabe und Vorteile der ErfindungObject and advantages of the invention

Es ist demnach Aufgabe der Erfindung, ein kostengünstiges Herstellungsverfahren für zylindrische Verbundkörper aus vorher kaltgepressten Einzelteilen, welche sich zur Herstellung keramischer Glühstiftkerzen eignen, sowie eine als Mehrfachnutzen eingerichtete Pressvorrichtung anzugeben, die bei diesem Verfahren verwendbar ist und die Herstellungskosten stark absenken kann. Dabei ist einigen besonderen Eigenschaften des zur Bindung der Keramikpulver eingesetzten Harzes Rechnung zu tragen, so z. B. dass ein Entformen der heiß verpressten Verbunde nur aus der abgekühlten Pressform erfolgen sollte, da die heißen zylindrischen Verbundkörper unter dem Einfluss von Entformungskräften deformiert oder gar beschädigt werden.It is therefore an object of the invention to be inexpensive Manufacturing process for cylindrical composite bodies previously cold-pressed individual parts, which are for production ceramic glow plugs are suitable, as well as a specify press device set up as multiple-use, which can be used in this process and which Manufacturing costs can greatly reduce. There is some special properties of the for binding the ceramic powder used resin to take into account, for. B. that the hot-pressed composites are only removed from the mold the cooled mold should be done because the hot cylindrical composite body under the influence of Demolding forces are deformed or even damaged.

Die Aufgabe wird anspruchsgemäß gelöst.The task is solved according to the requirements.

Dadurch, dass erfindungsgemäß

  • A: Der Fügeschritt einen Schritt aufweist, bei dem die Einzelteile in eine Formhülse eingelegt werden und die Formhülse stirnseitig beiderseits mit je einem axial beweglichen Stempel verschlossen wird,
  • B: Wenigstens eine so vorbereitete Formhülse dann in eine entsprechende Bohrung einer Isolierplatte gelegt und von dort in eine mit dieser fluchtenden Bohrung einer heißen Trägerplatte aus Stahl gedrückt wird, die zu diesem Zweck kurzzeitig parallel an der Isolierplatte anliegt;
  • C: Die beheizte Trägerplatte mit der Formhülse zwischen zwei Pressplatten einer Pressvorrichtung eingespannt und dann die in der Formhülse befindlichen Einzelteile beiderseits an den mit einem in die stirnseitigen Stempeln der Formhülse axial eingreifenden gefederten Druckstiften verpresst werden, die durch die beiden ebenfalls beheizten Pressplatten gehen;
  • D: Die verpressten Einzelteile unter Druck in der Formhülse und diese in der heißen Trägerplatte zwischen den heißen Pressplatten während einer notwendigen Druckhaltezeit verbleiben;
  • E: Dann die Druckstifte zurückgefahren, die Pressvorrichtung geöffnet, die Trägerplatte aus den Pressplatten ausgefahren und die in der Formhülse verpresste Masse drucklos in der heißen Trägerplatte weiter aushärtet;
  • F: Die Formhülse aus der heißen Trägerplatte ausgestoßen und abgekühlt wird und anschließend der abgekühlte zylindrische Formkörper aus der Formhülse entformt wird. Dadurch wird das aufwendige Rundschleifen von Vierkantstäben vermieden. Da sich die verwendete Pressvorrichtung z.B. als 100-fach Nutzen einrichten lässt, wird die Herstellung solcher zylindrischer Keramikverbundkörper für keramische Glühstiftkerzen wesentlich vereinfacht und durch die damit erreichte Erhöhung des Durchsatzes wesentlich verbilligt.
  • Because according to the invention
  • A: The joining step has a step in which the individual parts are placed in a molded sleeve and the molded sleeve is closed on both sides with an axially movable stamp,
  • B: At least one shaped sleeve prepared in this way is then placed in a corresponding hole in an insulating plate and from there is pressed into a hole in alignment with a hot steel support plate, which for this purpose lies briefly in parallel on the insulating plate;
  • C: The heated carrier plate with the molded sleeve is clamped between two press plates of a pressing device and then the individual parts located in the molded sleeve are pressed on both sides using the spring-loaded pressure pins that axially engage in the end stamps of the molded sleeve and pass through the two heated press plates;
  • D: The pressed individual parts under pressure in the mold sleeve and these remain in the hot carrier plate between the hot press plates during a necessary pressure holding time;
  • E: Then retract the pressure pins, open the pressing device, extend the carrier plate from the pressing plates and pressurize the mass pressed in the molded sleeve without pressure in the hot carrier plate;
  • F: The molded sleeve is ejected from the hot carrier plate and cooled and then the cooled cylindrical molded body is removed from the molded sleeve. This avoids the complex round grinding of square bars. Since the pressing device used can be set up, for example, as a 100-fold benefit, the manufacture of such cylindrical ceramic composite bodies for ceramic glow plugs is considerably simplified and is substantially cheaper due to the increase in throughput achieved thereby.
  • Eine solche für das erfindungsgemäße Herstellungsverfahren geeignete als Mehrfachnutzen ausgebildete Pressvorrichtung ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass eine Trägerplatte, deren Dicke bevorzugt der Länge der Formhülsen entspricht, mit parallelen und regelmäßig beabstandeten Bohrungen senkrecht durch die Trägerplatte mit einem zur Aufnahme der Formhülsen angepassten Durchmesser ausgeführt wird und in der Mittenebene der Trägerplatte liegende zweite Bohrungen zum Durchströmen mit einem Heizmedium oder zur Aufnahme von Heizpatronen angebracht sind, dass diese Trägerplatte durch Verwendung von Zentrierelementen derart zwischen zwei Pressplatten eingespannt wird, dass in entsprechenden Bohrungen der Pressplatte verschiebbar angeordnete einzeln gefederte Pressstifte mit den Bohrungen in der Trägerplatte zur Aufnahme der Presshülsen fluchten und dass die Führungshülsen der einzeln gefederten Pressstifte mit je einer beweglichen Druckplatte auf der der Trägerplatte abgewandten Seite der Pressplatten verbunden sind.One for the manufacturing process according to the invention suitable trained as multiple benefits Press device is characterized in that a Carrier plate, the thickness of which preferably corresponds to the length of the Corresponds to shaped sleeves, with parallel and regular spaced holes vertically through the support plate with one adapted to accommodate the molded sleeves Running diameter and in the center plane of the Carrier plate lying second holes to flow through with a heating medium or to hold heating cartridges are attached to this carrier plate by use of centering elements between two press plates it is clamped that the corresponding holes Press plate slidably arranged, individually sprung Press pins with the holes in the carrier plate Alignment of the compression sleeves and that the Guide sleeves of the individually sprung press pins with each a movable pressure plate on the carrier plate opposite side of the press plates are connected.

    Die obigen und weitere vorteilhafte Merkmale der Erfindung werden in der nachfolgenden, eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform der Erfindung erläuternden, Beschreibung noch deutlicher, wenn diese Beschreibung bezogen auf die beiliegenden Figuren gelesen wird. The above and other advantageous features of the invention are in the following, a preferred embodiment of the invention explanatory description even clearer if this description related to the enclosed figures is read.

    Figuren:Characters:

  • Figur 1 zeigt schematisch einen Längsschnitt durch eine erfindungsgemäß verwendete Formhülse, die die zur Verpressung vorgesehenen kalt vorgeformten Einzelteile aus Bindemittel und Keramikpulver zwischen zwei eingepassten Druckstempeln aufnimmt.Figure 1 shows schematically a longitudinal section through a Shaped sleeve used according to the invention, which for compression provided cold preformed items Binder and ceramic powder fit between two Stamps.

  • Ausführungsbeispielembodiment

    Figur zeigt im Längsschnitt eine zylindrische Formhülse 10 und die Einzelteile eines in diese Formhülse 10 eingelegten Vorpresslings, letztere auf der linken Seite auch im Querschnitt. Der aus einem Isolationsvorpressling 1 und zwei den Isolationsvorpressling 1 zu beiden Seiten einschließenden Leitvorpresslingen 2 bestehende Vorpressling ist von einer Kappe 3 aus vorgepresstem Leitmaterial abgedeckt. Zur Herstellung von Glühstiftkerzen bestehen diese Einzelteile 1 bis 3 aus in einem Festharz gebundenen Keramikpulvern. An ihren Stirnseiten ist die Formhülse 10 jeweils von einem beweglichen Stempel 11 und 12 abgeschlossen. Die Formhülse 10 bildet für die bevorzugte Verwendung zur Herstellung von Glühstiftkerzen eine Zylinderhülse, von der mehrere gleichzeitig in die entsprechenden Bohrungen der Trägerplatte eingedrückt werden. The figure shows in longitudinal section a cylindrical shaped sleeve 10 and the individual parts of one inserted into this molded sleeve 10 Prepress, the latter on the left also in cross section. The one from an insulation preform 1 and two the insulation preform 1 on both sides including master preforms 2 existing Prepress is pre-pressed by a cap 3 Lead material covered. For the production of glow plugs these parts 1 to 3 consist of one Resin-bonded ceramic powders. On their faces is the shaped sleeve 10 each of a movable Stamp 11 and 12 completed. The shaped sleeve 10 forms for preferred use in the manufacture of glow plugs a cylinder sleeve, of which several at the same time in the corresponding holes in the carrier plate be pushed in.

    Figur 2 zeigt schematisch einen Querschnitt durch die Trägerplatte 27, die beidseitig an die Trägerplatte aus Stahl angelegten Pressplatten 17, die miteinander verschraubten, über die Stange 33 beweglichen Druckplatten 31a und 31b und die in den Pressplatten 17 beweglichen, über Tellerfedern 19 und Spannbolzen 22 vergespannten Druckstifte 13. Es ist ersichtlich, dass Figur 2 nicht die gesamte Pressvorrichtung mit Mehrfachnutzen, sondern nur einen Abschnitt derselben mit der Mittenebene S-S der Trägerplatte 27 als Spiegelebene zeigt.Figure 2 shows schematically a cross section through the Carrier plate 27, made on both sides of the carrier plate Steel press plates 17, which are screwed together, over the rod 33 movable pressure plates 31a and 31b and those movable in the press plates 17, clamped via disc springs 19 and clamping bolts 22 Push pins 13. It can be seen that Figure 2 is not the entire pressing device with multiple benefits, but only a section of the same with the center plane S-S Carrier plate 27 shows as a mirror plane.

    Bei der 3efüllung der in Figur 2 abschnittsweise gezeigten Pressvorrichtung werden zunächst die gemäß Figur 1 vorbereiteten Formhülsen 10 in Bohrungen einer hier nicht gezeigten Isolierplatte, welche dasselbe Bohrungsbild wie die Trägerplatte 27 aufweist, wie in ein Flaschenregal eingelegt. Dann wird die Isolierplatte von einer Seite aus derart gegen die beheizte Stahlträgerplatte 27 gedrückt, dass die entsprechenden Bohrungen von Isolierplatte und Trägerplatte fluchten, die Formhülsen 10 gleichzeitig mittels einer nicht gezeigten Vorrichtung von den Bohrungen der Isolierplatte in die entsprechenden Bohrungen 20 der beheizten Trägerplatte 27 überführt, die Trägerplatte 27 in die Pressvorrichtung zwischen die beiden Pressplatten 17 eingefahren und die Pressvorrichtung mechanisch oder hydraulisch verriegelt, wobei konische Zentrierstifte 21 gewährleisten, dass die in die Pressplatten 17 eingefahrenen Druckstifte 13 und die Hülsen 10 in der Trägerplatte axial fluchten. Zu erkennen ist, dass Figur 2 nur zwei Bohrungen 20 in der Trägerplatte und in diese eingedrückt zwei Formhülsen 10 mit Druckstempeln 11 zeigt und dass die Linie S-S sowohl die Mittelebene der Trägerplatte als auch die Spiegelebene der gesamten Pressvorrichtung darstellt.When filling the sections in Figure 2 shown press device are first the according Figure 1 prepared form sleeves 10 in holes insulating plate, not shown here, which is the same Bore pattern as the carrier plate 27, as in a Bottle rack inserted. Then the insulating plate from one side of such against the heated steel support plate 27 pressed that the corresponding holes from Insulating plate and carrier plate are aligned, the molded sleeves 10 simultaneously by means of a device, not shown from the holes in the insulating plate into the corresponding ones Bores 20 of the heated support plate 27 transferred, the Carrier plate 27 in the press device between the two press plates 17 retracted and the press device locked mechanically or hydraulically, whereby conical centering pins 21 ensure that the in the Press plates 17 retracted pressure pins 13 and Align sleeves 10 axially in the carrier plate. To recognize is that Figure 2 only two holes 20 in the Carrier plate and two molded sleeves 10 pressed into it with stamp 11 shows that the line S-S both the center plane of the carrier plate and the mirror plane represents the entire pressing device.

    Die Beheizung der Trägerplatte 27 und der Pressplatten 17 erfolgt über die Bohrungen 16 entweder durch eine strömende Wärmeträgerflüssigkeit oder über eingeschobene Heizpatronen.The heating of the carrier plate 27 and the press plates 17 takes place via the holes 16 either through a flowing heat transfer fluid or inserted Heating cartridges.

    Neben der halben Trägerplatte 27 ist in Figur 2 von der Pressvorrichtung nur die eine Seite mit der Pressplatte 17, zwei gefederten Druckstiften 13, der Federmechanismus, bestehend aus den Tellerfedern 19, den Spannbolzen 22 für die Tellerfedern 19 und den Führungshülsen 23, welche mit der zweiteiligen Druckplatte 31a und 31b fest verbunden sind, dargestellt, sowie die mit der zweiteiligen Druckplatte 31a und 31b verbundene Druckstange 33, die untere Anschlagplatte 30 bzw. obere Anschlagplatte 32 und die Isolierplatte 15, welche die Pressplatte 17 vom übrigen Bereich der Pressvorrichtung thermisch isoliert.In addition to half the support plate 27 in FIG Press device only one side with the press plate 17, two spring-loaded pressure pins 13, the spring mechanism, consisting of the plate springs 19, the clamping bolts 22 for the plate springs 19 and the guide sleeves 23, which with the two-part pressure plate 31a and 31b are firmly connected, shown, as well as with the two-part pressure plate 31a and 31b connected push rod 33, the lower stop plate 30 or upper Stop plate 32 and the insulating plate 15, which the Press plate 17 from the rest of the press device thermally insulated.

    Beim Anlegen der Pressplatten 17 an die Trägerplatte 27 sind die zweiteiligen Druckplatten 31a und 31b auf beiden Seiten bis auf die jeweilige untere Anschlagplatte 30 zurückgefahren. In dieser Position der Druckplatten schließen die Druckstifte 13 mit der Oberfläche der Pressplatten 17 bündig ab. Beim Pressvorgang bewegt man die zweiteilige Druckplatte 31a, 31b von beiden Seiten gegen die zwischen den Pressplatten 17 eingespannte Trägerplatte 27. Dadurch drücken die Druckstifte 13 gegen die Druckstempel 11 bzw. 12 in den Formhülsen 10, und der Vorformling wird über beide Stirnflächen mit derselben Druckkraft beaufschlagt. Die über die vorgespannten Tellerfedern 19 einzeln gefederten Druckstifte 13 üben über die Druckstempel 11 und 12 auch auf etwas unterschiedlich lange Formkörper in den Formhülsen 10 annähernd gleiche Druckkräfte aus. Man erhält dadurch Formkörper, die während der Härtung dasselbe Temperatur-Druck-Profil durchlaufen haben und nimmt dafür geringfügig unterschiedliche Längen in Kauf. Die Federhülsen 23 können in Richtung der Trägerplatte 27 maximal bis zum Anschlag der Druckplatten 31b an die oberen Anschlagplatten 32 bewegt werden.When pressing plates 17 are placed on carrier plate 27 are the two-part pressure plates 31a and 31b on both Sides except for the respective lower stop plate 30 scaled back. In this position the printing plates close the pressure pins 13 with the surface of the Press plates 17 flush. You move during the pressing process the two-part pressure plate 31a, 31b from both sides against the clamped between the press plates 17 Carrier plate 27. This pushes the pressure pins 13 against the pressure stamps 11 and 12 in the form sleeves 10, and Preform is the same on both faces Pressure force applied. The one about the biased Practice disc springs 19 individually sprung pressure pins 13 about the stamp 11 and 12 also slightly different long shaped bodies in the shaped sleeves 10 approximately equal pressure forces. You get through it Moldings that have the same temperature-pressure profile during curing have gone through and takes slightly for it different lengths in purchase. The spring sleeves 23 can in the direction of the support plate 27 up to Stop the pressure plates 31b against the upper stop plates 32 are moved.

    Nach dem Ende der Presszeit werden die Druckplatten 31a, 31b über die Druckstangen 33 auf beiden Seiten bis auf die unteren Anschlagplatten 30 zurückgefahren. Dadurch legen sich die Köpfe der Druckstifte 13 an die Absätze in den Führungshülsen 23 an. Die Druckstifte werden so aus den Formhülsen 10 herausgezogen und stehen dann wieder bündig mit den Oberflächen der Pressplatten 17.After the end of the pressing time, the printing plates 31a, 31b over the push rods 33 on both sides up to the lower stop plates 30 retracted. Thereby put the heads of the pressure pins 13 on the paragraphs the guide sleeves 23. The pressure pins are made like this pulled out the molded sleeves 10 and then stand again flush with the surfaces of the press plates 17.

    Nach dem Öffnen der Pressvorrichtung läßt sich die Trägerplatte 27 zwischen den beiden Pressplatten 17 ausfahren. Dei verpresste Masse härtet dann drucklos in den Formhülsen 10, welche sich noch in den Bohrungen der beheizten Trägerplatte befinden, weiter. Nach dem Ende der Härtezeit werden die Formhülsen 10 aus der heißen Trägerplatte 27 ausgestoßen, an Luft abgekühlt und die gepressten Glühstifte zusammen mit den beweglichen Stempeln 11 und 12 aus den Formhülsen 10 herausgedrückt. Die Fcrmhülsen und Druckstempel werden gereinigt und die Formhülsen erneut mit Vorformlingen gefüllt und mit den Druckstempeln verschlossen. Die abgekühlten Glühstiftkerzen-Rohlinge werden auf einer Schleifmaschine in ihre entgültige Form geschliffen.After opening the press device, the Carrier plate 27 between the two press plates 17th exit. The pressed mass then hardens without pressure the shaped sleeves 10, which are still in the holes of the heated support plate, continue. After the end the hardening time, the shaped sleeves 10 from the hot Carrier plate 27 ejected, cooled in air and the pressed glow plugs together with the movable ones Stamp 11 and 12 pressed out of the molded sleeves 10. The film sleeves and pressure stamps are cleaned and the Molded sleeves again filled with preforms and with the Stamp closed. The cooled glow plug blanks are on a grinder in their final shape ground.

    Die schematisch in der Figur 2 dargestellte Pressvorrichtung mit Mehrfachnutzen, der z.B. ein 100-fach Nutzen sein kann, ersetzt die beim bekannten Verfahren zum Wechseln nötigen mehreren Pressformen und verringert den zum Schleifen notwendigen Aufwand, da die Trägerplatte 27, während des gesamten Aushärtevorgangs mit und ohne Pressdruck auf konstanter Härtetemperatur gehalten wird. Die an das Heißpressen sich anschließende drucklose Aushärtezeit legt die Verwendung mehrerer der preisgünstigen Trägerplatten für jede Pressvorrichtung nahe, um die im Vergleich zu den Trägerplatten wesentlich teureren Pressvorrichtungen ohne Stillstandszeiten zu betreiben. Außerdem wird eine Verkürzung der Presszeiten dadurch erreicht, dass die Trägerplatte nicht abgekühlt und aufgeheizt werden muss, im Gegensatz zum bisherigen Plattenpressprozess. Damit wird eine deutliche Verringerung der Herstellungskosten von keramischen Glühstiftkerzen erreicht.The pressing device shown schematically in Figure 2 with multiple benefits, e.g. a 100 times Can be useful, replaces the known method necessary to change several molds and reduced the effort required for grinding, since the carrier plate 27, during the entire curing process with and kept at constant hardening temperature without pressing pressure becomes. The unpressurized following the hot pressing Curing time implies the use of several of the inexpensive ones Support plates for each pressing device close, to the essential compared to the carrier plates expensive press devices without downtimes operate. There will also be a reduction in press times achieved in that the carrier plate does not cool and must be heated, in contrast to the previous one Plate pressing process. This is a significant reduction the manufacturing cost of ceramic glow plugs reached.
