Continuous metal fiber brushes

A conductive fiber brush including a brush stock composed of plural conductive fibers or strands of fibers at least some of which may have plural bends along the leg of the fibers or strands. The fibers may have a diameter less than 0.2 mm and are arranged in contacting engagement with each other with the touching points among the fibers or strands maintaining elastic tension between the fibers or strands and thereby maintaining voids between the fibers or strands to produce a packing fraction between 1 and 50% and in extreme cases up to 70% but generally between 10-20% depending on the various factors, including the materials used, the current densities to be conducted, and the sliding speeds under operation. The plural bends are implemented by producing fibers or strands having a regular or irregular spiral, wavy, saw-tooth, triangular, and/or rectangular pattern, or other undulating pattern. Optionally, the voids in brush stock may be partially filled with a strengthening, lubricating, abrasive, and/or polishing material, and may be wrapped in an outer sheath, slid into a casing, or provided with an other covering of all or part of the area of the brush stock, be infiltrated or sprayed at the surface with some material, have an increased packing fraction at the surface and/or have some or all of the touching points between the fibers or strands soldered, welded or otherwise thermally joined. Optionally also, the friction among the fibers may be reduced through light lubrication applied by rinsing the brush or brush stock in a lubricant. In one embodiment, the fiber brush is employed in a brush loading device having a hydrostatically controlled brush holder wherein the force exerted on the brush is controlled by a metallic or other conductive hydrostatic fluid which at the same time conducts the current to the brush.

Process for producing low-noise and high-performance electric brushes by using copper-coated graphite powder

The invention discloses a process for producing low-noise and high-performance electric brushes by using substitutional copper-coated graphite powder, and the process comprises the following steps: 1) kneading graphite powder and a bonding agent together so as to obtain colloidal graphite powder; 2) mixing the colloidal graphite powder, additives and a release agent so as to obtain mixed powder; 3) adding methanol or a gasoline low-carbon-residue binder dilute-solution in the mixed powder, mixing and then adding copper coated graphite powder into the obtained mixture; and 4) airing the material powder mixed in the step 3), pressing the material powder, and finally, sintering the material powder, thereby obtaining a low-noise and high-performance electric brush. According to the process disclosed by the invention, through adopting chemical substitutional copper coated graphite powder which can be industrialized as raw materials, and overcoming the defects that a chemical substitutional copper coated graphite powder coating is loose, porous and poor in binding force, and in the process of application, a copper plating layer is easy to fall off, a low-noise and high-performance electric brush is prepared. According to the process, a product can be obtained just through one-step molding and low-temperature heat treatment, therefore, the process is simple in working procedure, low in energy consumption, high in efficiency and short in production cycle, and the cost of the process is lower than that of a process implemented by using electrographite.
