Abstract

The invention discloses a high-strength and high-conductivity rare-earth chromium-zirconium-copper spring contact finger and a manufacturing method thereof. The spring contact finger is manufactured from, by weight, 99.95% of metallic copper, 99.9% of metallic zirconium, 99.9% of metallic chromium and industrial rare-earth materials (cerium-rich rare earth and silicon magnesium), and alloys include, by weight, 8-15% ofzirconium, 0.2-1.5% of chromium, 3-8% of rare earth and the balance of the copper. The manufacturing method mainly includes the steps of vacuum melting, homogenizing annealing, extrusion breakdown of cast ingot (an extruded rod is phi18-phi30mm in size), multi-pass continuous drawing and intermediate stress relief annealing, wire winding spring, sizing pressure spring, butt welding of the contact finger and the like. The spring contact finger has the advantages of high ultimate tensile strength, high electric conductivity, good rebound resilience, no pollution and the like, the mechanical property of the spring contact finger is comparable to that of beryllium copper while the physical performance and environmental index of the same are obviously superior to the beryllium copper, and the spring contact finger can take the place of the beryllium copper in majority of occasions where the spring contact finger is used.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of spring contact finger manufacturing, and relates to a high-strength, high-conductivity rare-earth chromium-zirconium-copper spring contact finger and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] The spring contacts used for static connections have basically been domestically produced, while the spring contacts used in high-precision, high-performance, high-reliability electrical equipment for dynamic connections are all imported and expensive (generally 3 times the price of domestic parts). times more). [0003] At present, spring contacts are divided into three types according to their materials: beryllium copper, beryllium cobalt copper, and chromium zirconium copper. The first two have been localized and have stable performance. However, beryllium is toxic and causes serious environmental pollution. Although chrome-zirconium copper has good electrical conductivity, it has low strengt...
