Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of silver-containing copper-based carbon brushes, and specifically relates to a silver-containing copper-based carbon brush for transportation vehicles and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] A carbon brush is a friction-conductive conductor and a mechanical and electrical component with the function of transmitting current. As a key current-conducting component of the grounding device of the bogie of rail transit vehicles (high-speed trains, bullet trains, subways), through close contact and frictional commutation with the slip ring or friction disc (pressed on the bogie axle), the eddy current inside the axle is conducted to the grounding cable connected to the grounding device, realizing a dynamic current closed loop.
[0003] In the grounding device, the carbon brush is installed in the brush groove of the carbon brush holder and can slide up and down. It is in close contact with the slip ring or friction disc through the pressure of the compression spring. The brush braid of the carbon brush is connected to the carbon brush holder. The carbon brush holder is connected to the external grounding cable. During the high-speed operation (300 km / h to 400 km / h) of the vehicle, the slip ring or friction disc also rotates at high speed (2400 revolutions per minute, bidirectional) following the axle. As a current transmission component, the carbon brush must maintain sliding contact with the slip ring or friction disc and generate losses due to high-speed friction. Therefore, the carbon brush is a consumable part and must be replaced after reaching a certain service time or a certain degree of wear. However, the existing carbon brushes have poor electrical conductivity, and it is difficult to balance and coordinate the improvement of the electrical conductivity, wear resistance, and mechanical strength of the products. In addition, the salt corrosion resistance and the stability of resistance to thermal cycling of the products are poor, which further limits the use performance of the products.

[0029] The present invention also provides a silver-containing copper-based carbon brush prepared by the preparation method of a silver-containing copper-based carbon brush for a transportation vehicle.
[0030] For the silver-containing copper-based carbon brush of the present invention, the chemical composition and advanced functions of its main material are briefly described as follows:
[0031] Copper, with good electrical conductivity, plasticity, and toughness. As the main matrix material, copper is added to the carbon brush body in the form of tin bronze alloy powder and cooperates with other materials to achieve the characteristics of high physical strength, high toughness, high stability, and high current conduction ability, ensuring that various index parameters such as the bending strength, shear strength, and current strength of the carbon brush meet the standards.
[0032] Tin is added in the form of tin bronze alloy powder with copper and tin as the main alloying elements, which is mainly used to make elastic components and wear-resistant parts. This alloy has high mechanical properties, antifriction properties and corrosion resistance, is easy to machine, has a small shrinkage coefficient and is non-magnetic. It improves the overall physical performance indicators of the carbon brush, and has the characteristics of small deformation, easy machining and shaping, and non-magnetism. During the operation of the carbon brush, part of the tin component is oxidized, but tin oxide is a strong conductive material, which helps to improve the conductivity and service life of the carbon brush.
[0033] Carbon. After the mixed metal powder is formed, most of the carbon powder is converted into graphite, which plays a lubricating role, and a small part remains in the form of free carbon powder. This form has poor adhesion to metals and is easy to peel off and fall off to form a network gap. Therefore, there is a key process after melting and casting the brush body, which is soaking, allowing a fine molecular fatty solution to infiltrate these gaps and adhere to the brush body, playing the roles of conducting electricity, heat transfer, lubrication, reducing the friction coefficient, and enhancing the contact and fitting ability of the carbon brush during the application of the carbon brush.
[0034] Molybdenum disulfide is a solid lubricant, and its main function is to reduce the friction coefficient and improve the wear resistance. However, due to the certain corrosiveness of molybdenum disulfide to copper, adding too high a proportion will affect the structural stability of the main body of the carbon brush body. Therefore, an appropriate proportion of molybdenum disulfide is generally added to the brush body. Soaking the brush body with a fatty solution after melting and casting and processing and shaping also has the effect of stabilizing the state of molybdenum disulfide.
[0035] Silver is added in the form of a copper-tin-silver alloy and a silver-containing tin bronze powder.
[0036] The silver-containing copper-based carbon brush of the present invention has the following advanced technical features:
[0037] 1. The metal silver component contained in the silver-containing copper-based carbon brush body of the present invention is added in the form of ultrafine powder of a silver-containing tin bronze alloy body with a silver content. Examples show that it greatly improves the mechanical strength, conductivity and service life of the carbon brush body;
[0038] Silver has stable chemical properties, good electrical and thermal conductivity. Silver-copper alloy is a eutectic alloy with a mutual solid solubility limit. The characteristics of copper-silver alloy are fine crystallization, no brittleness, good wear resistance, and good electrical conductivity (reducing contact resistance), fluidity (easy to machine) and wettability (strong adhesion). The carbon brush added with silver powder improves the conductivity of the carbon brush (reducing resistivity and voltage drop), reduces electric erosion (the contact resistance between the carbon brush and the slip ring or friction disc decreases, the contact property enhances, and the contact arc discharge phenomenon during strong current conduction is greatly reduced, and the sintering loss caused by arc discharge is also greatly reduced). Due to its good adhesion performance, the effect of the fatty infiltration solution can be maximally exerted;
[0039] 2. After the carbon brush body of the present invention is sintered and formed, soaking (impregnating) with a fatty solution is also a very crucial process step. It forms a semiconductor conductive bridge in the small space near the friction surface, actively intervenes in the physical conditions for forming an arc between the carbon brush and the slip ring, and strongly resists the generation of the arc. This not only greatly increases the service life of the carbon brush but also significantly promotes the driving safety. The carbon brush is a consumable. During the working process, the brush body is in close contact with and rubs against the collector ring or the friction disc. There are mainly two ways of wear of the carbon brush:
[0040] Through the protection of the conductive oil film of the infiltrating solution in this technical solution, the generation rate of the new oxide film is reduced, and the thickness of the oxide film on the carbon brush contact surface is always maintained at about 0.01 mm. After testing, when the vehicle runs 500,000 kilometers, the decay of various technical indicators of the carbon brush does not exceed 5%; when the vehicle runs 800,000 kilometers, the decay of the comprehensive technical indicators of the carbon brush does not exceed 10%.
[0041] To sum up, the technical solution of the present invention can increase the average service life of the carbon brush by 1 to 1.5 times, enable the service life of the collector ring and the friction disc to reach or even exceed the design expectation, and greatly reduce the operation and maintenance costs of the rail vehicle.
[0042] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0043] According to the newly formulated material formula of the carbon brush body of the present invention, the content of silver element is increased to 2 parts. According to the good electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity of the silver element, the specific resistivity is reduced, the voltage drop is reduced, and the working temperature is reduced; a fatty infiltrating solution is used to enhance the electrical conductivity, reduce the friction coefficient, reduce the contact spark, and stabilize the operating parameters, so that the technical indicators of the carbon brush remain relatively stable throughout the service life, and to a certain extent, the wear on the collector ring or the friction disc is also reduced;
[0044] Copper, tin, molybdenum disulfide powder with a mesh size of 500, silver, and carbon powder with a mesh size of 1000 are used as matrix materials. By adding a balance agent doped with calcined alumina and a property stability regulator, the two are coordinated and synergistic. The obtained silver-containing copper-based carbon brush has improved balance and coordination in electrical conductivity, wear resistance, and mechanical strength, and the product has significant effects in salt corrosion resistance and thermal cycle stability. The balance agent doped with calcined alumina is proton-irradiated through aluminum borate whiskers to optimize its activity efficiency. Then, stearic acid and silane coupling agent KH560 are added to the sodium lignosulfonate solution and combined with silicon carbide agent. Through the coordination of raw materials, a leveling modifier is obtained. The silicon carbide agent is prepared by combining silicon carbide with lanthanum chloride solution. In the system, the raw materials can be better coordinated, so that the aluminum borate whisker leveling solution can better coordinate and synergize with calcined alumina. The calcined alumina is first heated from room temperature to 210-220°C at a rate of 1-3°C / min and held for 5-10 minutes, then heated to 350°C at a rate of 2-5°C / min and held for 2-5 minutes. Through step-by-step thermal improvement, the activity efficiency of alumina is optimized. Then, through the co-milling treatment of nanobentonite, dopamine hydrochloride solution, and yttrium nitrate solution, through the coordination of raw materials, they are jointly coordinated. By using the co-allocation and synergistic effect of raw materials, nanobentonite is combined with alumina to enhance the performance coordination and performance stability of the product in the system. The property stability regulator is improved by activating zirconium silicate fiber with potassium permanganate, and then stirred with sodium silicate solution. At the same time, through the co-milling treatment of sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate solution, carboxymethyl cellulose, chitosan solution with a mass fraction of 4%, and boron nitride, through the coordination and synergistic effect of raw materials, the reinforcing effect of the property stability regulator and the balance agent doped with calcined alumina is enhanced, and the performance of the product is further improved.

[0174] If one of the equilibrium agent doped with calcined alumina and the sex stability regulator is not added to the product, the performance of the product deteriorates significantly. By using the two in coordination and synergistic effect, the performance effect of the product is the most obvious;
[0175] In the preparation of the equilibrium agent doped with calcined alumina, the treatment with the aluminum borate whisker leveling solution was not adopted, and the treatment with calcined alumina was not adopted, and the performance of the product showed an obvious deterioration trend.

Using other methods to replace them is not as obvious as the effect of the present invention.
[0178] Based on the fact that calcined alumina has a greater influence on the product performance trend, the present invention further explores it:

[0191]
[0192] It can be seen from Experimental Examples 1-5 that in the preparation of calcined alumina, when alumina air-cooled to room temperature was not added, the performance of the product showed a significant deterioration trend. At the same time, when nano-bentonite was not added in the preparation of calcined alumina, the deterioration of the product performance was also obvious. In addition, when hydrochloric acid dopamine solution was not added, yttrium nitrate solution was not added, and the temperature was not raised to 215 °C at a rate of 2 °C / min and held for 7.5 min, and then raised to 350 °C at a rate of 3.5 °C / min for treatment in the preparation of calcined alumina, the performance of the product all showed a deterioration trend.
