These solder-plated metal wires are usually manufactured by an electric solder plating method or a molten solder plating method. From the viewpoint of equipment cost and productivity, it is said that the molten solder plating method is good, and the solder wettability is slightly better than that of the solder plating layer formed by the electric solder plating method. Since the plating thickness becomes non-uniform, the electric solder plating method is often adopted from the viewpoint of product reliability even if the product cost is high.

As a method of solving the above drawbacks of the hot-dip solder plating method and positively utilizing the inherent advantages of the hot-dip solder plating method, a metal wire is passed through a hot-dip solder plating bath and the metal wire to be solder-plated is melted by the hot-dip solder. In the circumferential direction of the metal wire, the metal wire was pulled up almost vertically from the plating bath, naturally cooled for 0.3 to 2.5 seconds, and then passed through the spray droplets sprayed under predetermined conditions to cool the metal wire. A method of making the solder plating thickness uniform has been proposed. (Tokuhei 1-163

With the above-mentioned hot-dip solder plating method, it is possible to obtain a solder-plated metal wire having a relatively uniform solder-plating thickness.
That is, it is necessary to accurately control the speed at which the spray droplets reach the metal wire, the droplet density, the droplet diameter, etc. within a predetermined range, and it is not always a method that can be easily implemented in mass production on an industrial scale. It is difficult to say, and it is not possible to prevent the inclusion of sludge (solder oxide) existing on the surface of the molten solder plating bath, etc., by this method alone, and thus unevenness is formed on the solder plating surface or wettability is reduced. Has the problem. Further, no method has been proposed for smoothing the unevenness of the plating surface once formed on the surface of the metal wire, and the uniformity of the plating thickness is determined by the conditions of the first immersion in the plating bath. ..

No. 17621), there is a method of transferring and fusing the solder paste placed on the transfer roll on the outer peripheral surface of the metal wire at a constant interval. However, when this is performed by the molten solder plating method, the non-plated portion is masked. The metal wire is immersed in a plating bath, but when it is pulled up vertically, surface tension causes the solder to accumulate under the plated part and form irregularities on the surface. It is difficult.

In the following, the solder plating will be mainly described in detailing the present invention. In addition, in the case of tin plating, the same operation and effect as in the case of solder plating described later can be obtained. This invention relates to a molten solder plating method of passing a conventionally known metal material through a molten solder plating bath, pulling it upward from the plating bath, and then plating solder around the metal material by cooling, on an industrial scale. It is possible to mass-produce various metal materials easily, and the result of various studies aimed at the method of smoothing the unevenness of the plating surface of the obtained metal material and making the thickness uniform is the result. After completing the above, apply oil that evaporates below the temperature of the molten solder plating bath such as kerosene to the entire outer circumference of the solder plated metal material, and
It has been completed by finding that the uniformity of the solder plating thickness is improved by passing it through the molten solder plating bath.

More specifically, the solder plated on the entire surface of the metal material is remelted while passing through the molten solder plating bath while being protected by oil that is vaporized and becomes gaseous.
Furthermore, it is considered that the re-melted solder does not re-weld the surrounding solder in the bath due to the oil and only the excess solder returns to the molten metal through the oil film gasified by the surface tension or gravity when the metal material is pulled up. Therefore, the surface of the solder plating film can be smoothed and the uneven thickness ratio can be reduced.

Further, in order to prevent the inclusion of sludge existing on the surface of the molten solder plating bath or sludge which is generated when the solder deposited on the metal material is newly exposed to the atmosphere and reacts with oxygen, the molten solder plating bath is included. From the above, it was found that by spraying a heated inert gas onto the metal material that is pulled up from above, the above sludge is washed away into the bath water, and it is possible to prevent the inclusion of sludge in the solder that has been welded to the metal material.
Solder plating having a uniform solder plating thickness, less entrainment of sludge, less unevenness on the plating surface, and extremely good wettability can be obtained.

In addition, stripes are formed on required parts of the material surface,
In the case of the island-shaped solder-plated metal material, the discontinuous solder plating in the pulling direction of the material is remelted in the bath as described above. Further, since the oil applied to the entire surface of the metal material becomes gaseous in the solder plating bath to protect the surface of the material, the solder around the bath is not welded to the non-adhered portion of the solder plating. Furthermore, if there is a small amount of excess solder in the remelted solder, it is difficult to move the excess solder in the adhered part into the molten metal due to surface tension or gravity when the metal material is pulled up, so it is difficult By spraying a heated inert gas on the material or further vibrating the material, the surface of the solder plating film can be smoothed and the uneven thickness ratio can be reduced. In the case of a striped pattern continuous in the pulling direction of the material, it is the same as the above-mentioned whole surface plating except that the solder is not welded to the non-adhered portion of the solder plating.

The oil applied to the surface of the solder-plated metal material is preferably oil such as kerosene which has a small viscosity and does not leave a residue even when evaporated. When the solder-plated metal material is simply passed through the molten solder plating bath without applying oil, the temperature of the core wire is lower than the temperature of the plating bath, so the molten solder is welded and the metal material surface is solder-plated into two layers. It Therefore, the immersion time in the plating bath again needs to be set so that the solder plated for the first time is remelted while the oil evaporation is completed. The method of applying oil to the surface of the metal material may be any means as long as the required amount of oil is evenly applied to the surface, and the oil may be passed through a felt containing oil or after being immersed in an oil bath, the inside of the felt may be washed. A method of passing and homogenizing can be adopted.

The solder plating method before applying the plating surface smoothing method according to the present invention may be any known method, but in the case of the molten solder plating method on the entire surface of the material, the entire outer circumference of the metal wire is covered. After applying the flux, when the metal wire is passed through the solder hot dip plating bath and pulled upward from the plating bath, it is pulled up while spraying a heated inert gas onto the plated metal wire, and then cooled to perform the solder hot dip plating. The method of application is preferred. That is, by applying the flux to the entire outer circumference of the material before immersing the metal material in the plating bath, the surface of the material is extremely activated by the flux, and the molten solder existing around the material becomes extremely efficient. Because of the welding, solder plating with good wettability can be easily obtained.

The above-mentioned flux applied to the entire outer circumference of the metal material is preferably selected from known fluxes according to various conditions such as solder composition and plating bath temperature, and zinc chloride and ammonium chloride are particularly preferable. Water soluble flux is preferred. As a method of applying the flux to the metal material, any means can be adopted as long as it can be applied to the entire outer periphery of the metal material before the metal material is immersed in the plating bath. The structure in which the metallic material passes and the method of applying the flux to the entire surface of the non-cored wire can apply the flux efficiently by a simple means and is most suitable for industrial mass production.

The metallic material passing through the molten solder plating bath must have its surface temperature raised to a temperature equal to the molten solder temperature. If the surface temperature is lower than the molten solder temperature, the surface of the metallic material will be Not activated by flux,
Effective wettability cannot be obtained. Therefore, in order to obtain the required surface temperature of the metal material, consider the immersion time of the metal material, which is related to the temperature of the plating bath and the pulling rate of the metal material described later, etc., and raise the temperature to some extent before applying the flux. It is desirable to appropriately select a means such as leaving it or immersing it sufficiently in a plating bath. To heat the metal material in advance, use a ring furnace, light heating, gas heating, electric heating,
Various heating methods such as electromagnetic induction heating can be selected appropriately,
In the case of stainless steel wire, it is especially desirable to raise the temperature before applying the flux.

Further, as a partial solder plating method before applying the plating surface smoothing method according to the present invention, in addition to a known plating method, the inventor has previously proposed (JP-A-2-17621) an outer periphery of a metal wire. It is possible to adopt a method of transferring and fusing the solder paste placed on a transfer roll on the surface at a constant interval, or a printing method using a mask material. For example, when partial solder plating is provided in an island shape by a printing method using a mask material, even if unevenness remains on the surface in the initial plating, oil plating, plating bath immersion By repeatedly performing the pulling process, 1 to 15 μm can be easily performed.

In the present invention, the composition of the molten solder plating bath may be any known solder composition.
Also, the plating bath temperature is naturally higher than the melting point of the solder,
It is desirable to select the optimum temperature according to the composition ratio of Sn and Pb. Further, as the molten solder plating bath, any known plating bath can be adopted, but in order to form a particularly good solder film, the jet type in which the metal material can always pass through the fresh molten solder at a constant temperature. It is preferable to use a solder plating bath.

In the present invention, the method of pulling up the metal material from the plating bath pulls up the metal material above the surface of the plating bath. However, there is no uneven deposition of solder and a plating film having a uniform thickness can be obtained. It is necessary to pull up at an angle within 30 ° from the vertical, and preferably 10 ° from the vertical in order to obtain a sufficient effect by spraying a heated inert gas.
It is necessary to pull up within the tilt range within, and most preferably vertical pulling. The pulling rate of the metal material is preferably 1 m / min to 50 m / min. When the pulling rate is less than 1 m / min, the production efficiency is very poor, and when the pulling rate is more than 50 m / min, the plating temperature does not rise to about the molten solder temperature in a bath having a general size. It is not possible to obtain a solder plating film that has been pulled up and has a smooth surface.
