Description
La présente invention concerne un dispositif d'assemblage par brasage d'un capot d'extrémité sur un corps cylindrique, ledit capot d'extrémité présentant un bord périphérique circulaire par lequel ledit capot est brasé sur une partie de l'une des surfaces d'extrémité du corps cylindrique, ainsi qu'une ampoule à vide assemblée au moyen d'un tel dispositif d'assemblage.The present invention relates to an assembly device by brazing an end cap on a cylindrical body, said end cap having a circular peripheral edge through which said cap is brazed on a part of one of the surfaces of end of the cylindrical body, and a vacuum bulb assembled by means of such an assembly device.
L'une des problématiques liées à l'assemblage par brasage au four de pièces de nature différente, telles une pièce en céramique avec une pièce métallique par exemple, est liée à l'apparition de contraintes résiduelles dans cet assemblage principalement dues à la différence des coefficients de dilatation des matériaux à assembler. Ces contraintes résiduelles peuvent conduire, à court ou long terme, à une fissuration de l'assemblage.One of the problems related to the assembly by brazing of parts of different types, such as a ceramic part with a metal part for example, is related to the appearance of residual stresses in this assembly mainly due to the difference of coefficients of expansion of the materials to be assembled. These residual stresses can lead, in the short or long term, to cracking of the assembly.

Le capot doit être centré sur la céramique et se situer à une distance suffisante des bords du corps en céramique, de façon que les congés de brasure 11a,11b, qui correspondent aux extrémités des joints brasés, soient situés dans des zones où l'assemblage est soumis à des contraintes résiduelles réduites.The hood shall be centered on the ceramic and be located at a sufficient distance from the edges of the ceramic body, so that
Avantageusement, tel qu'illustré sur la
Selon une première réalisation, lors de l'assemblage, la brasure est placée en retrait par rapport à la zone où devra venir se situer le congé de brasure, la longueur de ce retrait étant dépendante de la vitesse de diffusion de la brasure à la température de brasage.According to a first embodiment, during assembly, the solder is set back from the area where the brazing fillet will be located, the length of this withdrawal being dependent on the diffusion rate of the solder at the temperature. brazing.
Dans le cas d'un brasage à 850°C± 30°C, la vitesse de diffusion de la brasure est de l'ordre du micron/seconde. Ainsi, pour un brasage d'une dizaine de minutes, la brasure sera décalée d'environ 1mm par rapport à chaque extrémité de la surface de brasage.In the case of brazing at 850 ° C. ± 30 ° C., the diffusion rate of the solder is of the order of one micron / second. Thus, for a soldering of about ten minutes, the solder will be offset by about 1 mm with respect to each end of the brazing surface.
D'autres solutions peuvent être utilisées telles que l'utilisation d'une solution anti-mouillante déposée sur la zone A de la surface d'extrémité 10 du corps cylindrique 1 ou bien la réalisation d'une oxydation localisée, sur une zone B (
Le fait de prévoir un dégagement d'une hauteur H2 comprise entre 0,5 et 2 mm, et un angle ß compris entre 55° et 125° pour la réalisation décrite sur la
Ainsi, selon l'invention, le capot a été conçu de manière que la surface de brasage soit située dans une zone soumise à des contraintes principalement en compression afin que les fissures, si elles s'amorcent, ne puissent pas se propager dans le matériau fragile c'est-à-dire la céramique. En effet, si une fissure s'amorce dans une zone de l'assemblage soumise à des efforts de traction, elle peut se propager, alors que si elle s'amorce dans une zone soumise à des efforts de compression, elle ne se propage pas.Thus, according to the invention, the cover has been designed so that the brazing surface is located in an area subjected to constraints mainly in compression so that the cracks, if they start, can not propagate in the material. fragile that is to say the ceramic. Indeed, if a crack starts in an area of the assembly subjected to tensile forces, it can spread, whereas if it starts in an area subjected to compression forces, it does not spread .
D'autre part, les congés de brasure 11a,11b (extrémités des joints brasés) sont des points de l'assemblage à partir desquels les fissures peuvent s'amorcer. Il est donc important de concevoir l'assemblage pour que ces congés de brasure soient situés dans des zones soumises à des contraintes le plus faible possibles et, de préférence, en compression afin que les fissures, si elles s'amorcent, ne puissent pas se propager dans le matériau fragile, c'est-à-dire la céramique. En effet, si une fissure s'amorce dans une zone de l'assemblage « en traction », elle peut se propager et conduire à une rupture, alors que si elle s'amorce dans une zone en compression, elle ne se propage pas. Ce problème a été résolu selon l'invention, soit en décalant la brasure, par rapport à l'endroit où elle doit se situer, en fonction de la vitesse de diffusion de la brasure et du temps de brasage, soit en prévoyant un anti-mouillant sur le corps cylindrique, soit une oxydation localisée sur une zone du capot, soit une combinaison de ces trois solutions.On the other hand, the
La présente invention propose donc une conception d'assemblage qui minimise les contraintes et les localise dans des zones où les fissures, si elles s'initient, ne peuvent pas se propager.The present invention therefore proposes an assembly design that minimizes the stresses and locates them in areas where the cracks, if they are initiated, can not propagate.
La présente invention permet donc d'améliorer la tenue mécanique d'un assemblage par brasage tel l'assemblage d'un métal avec une céramique oxyde, de manière à diminuer les taux de rebut et à apporter une amélioration dans les cas où les contraintes d'utilisation sont plus sévères (notamment en cas de surmoulage,...). Ce qui permet d'utiliser un brasage du type réactif qui, de manière connue, procure une tenue mécanique inférieure au brasage classique.The present invention therefore makes it possible to improve the mechanical strength of a brazing assembly such as the assembly of a metal with an oxide ceramic, so as to reduce the scrap rates and to provide an improvement in cases where the stresses of use are more severe (especially in case of over-molding, ...). This makes it possible to use a brazing of the reactive type which, in known manner, provides a lower mechanical strength than the conventional brazing.
L'invention s'applique à l'assemblage des ampoules à vide et, de manière générale à tous les assemblages qui requièrent une bonne étanchéité tout au long de leur durée de service. Bien entendu, l'invention n'est pas limitée aux modes de réalisations décrits et illustrés qui n'ont été donnés qu'à titre d'exemple.The invention applies to the assembly of vacuum bulbs and, in general to all assemblies that require a good seal throughout their service life. Of course, the invention is not limited to the embodiments described and illustrated which have been given by way of example.
Au contraire, l'invention comprend tous les équivalents techniques des moyens décrits ainsi que leurs combinaisons si celles-ci sont réalisées suivant son esprit.On the contrary, the invention comprises all the technical equivalents of the means described and their combinations if they are carried out according to its spirit.
