Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a composite material manufacturing technology, in particular to a blank mixing molding device for metal-based composite materials. Background Art
[0002] Metal matrix composites are usually prepared by in-situ synthesis. The basic principle is to generate one or more ceramic phase particles in the metal matrix through chemical reactions of compounds under certain conditions, so as to improve the performance of a single metal. The in-situ synthesis process can be divided into solid-liquid reaction composite and solid-solid reaction composite. Among them, solid-solid reaction composite is further divided into self-propagating high temperature synthesis method, XDIM method, contact reaction method, mixed salt reaction method and mechanical alloying method.
[0003] The XDIM method (Exothermical Dispersion Technique), also known as the exothermic dispersion method, is to uniformly mix the component powders of the composite material with the metal matrix, and then quickly heat the pressed green sheet to a temperature above the melting point of the metal matrix after compaction and degassing to generate dispersed particles smaller than 1nm and evenly distributed. The reaction elements diffuse and contact with each other, continuously react and precipitate a stable reinforcement phase, which is then cast and extruded to be made into composite workpieces of different forms.
[0004] Copper-based composite materials are composite materials made of copper as the metal matrix and other metal or non-metal materials. Copper-based composite materials have the advantages of good thermal conductivity, good mechanical properties, good corrosion resistance and good wear resistance. Copper-based composite materials can have different properties depending on the mixed materials.
[0005] Graphene is an allotrope of carbon with excellent optical, electrical and mechanical properties and broad application prospects. Graphene is combined with copper-based materials to form copper-based composite materials, which can significantly improve the performance of copper-based materials and have better hardness, wear resistance and conductivity.
[0006] When preparing metal-based composite materials by exothermic dispersion method, the particle size of metal-based powder and mixed materials is related to the contact area between materials. Appropriate particle size and particle gradation are conducive to close contact between powders and filling of gaps, which is conducive to the subsequent heating reaction and mass transfer process. Therefore, it is necessary to finely grind the raw materials. However, the existing mixing and compacting processes are usually carried out at room temperature, and the compact density is low.
[0007] Secondly, the existing mixing and pressing processes require independent equipment to operate, that is, the mixed material after mixing needs to pass through a conveying mechanism, and the mixed material produced by the mixing equipment is transmitted to the pressing molding mechanism through the conveying mechanism, and the linkage between the processes is poor. If the material mixing mechanism is combined with the extrusion molding mechanism, the discharge port of the mixing mechanism is connected to the extrusion molding chamber. Although the transmission process can be saved and there is no need to transmit the mixed raw materials to the extrusion mechanism through the transmission mechanism, the mixing mechanism and the extrusion molding mechanism need to be equipped with an opening and closing device for the mixture transmission channel, which not only increases the number of equipment components, but also needs to be equipped with a corresponding control system to meet the needs of practical applications, which will increase the equipment manufacturing cost. And after the pressing molding, additional equipment is required to push the blank out for subsequent transmission, which has low mobility and flexibility, and also increases the equipment manufacturing cost.

[0041] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0042] See also Figures 1 to 10 The present invention provides the following two embodiments: a device for mixing and molding a blank of a metal-based composite material, comprising a mixing bin 100, a molding mechanism 200 and a negative pressure mechanism 300.
[0043] Embodiment 1:
[0044] See also Figure 1 A rotating mechanism 110 is provided inside the mixing chamber 100 , and one end of the rotating mechanism 110 that passes through the mixing chamber 100 is connected to a driving mechanism 120 . A diversion mechanism 130 is provided on the surface of the mixing chamber 100 , and the rotating mechanism 110 is rotatably installed inside the diversion mechanism 130 .
[0045] See also Figures 1 to 4 The interior of the rotating mechanism 110 is hollow, and the driving mechanism 120 adopts an electric motor. A nozzle 113 is arranged at one end of the rotating mechanism 110 away from the driving mechanism 120, and a plurality of stirring rods 112 are arranged on the surface of the rotating mechanism 110, and the cross section of the stirring rod 112 is V-shaped. The cross section of the stirring rod 112 adopts a V-shaped design, the purpose of which is to increase the contact area between the stirring rod 112 and the material. When the powder raw material is input into the mixing bin 100, the rotating stirring rod 112 collides with the powder, and the surface of the V-shaped stirring rod 112 has a larger contact area, so that the powder raw material is more fully and evenly dispersed through the collision between the stirring rod 112 and the material. A plurality of scrapers 111 are arranged on the surface of one end of the rotating mechanism 110 away from the driving mechanism 120.
[0046] The driving mechanism 120 drives the rotating mechanism 110 to rotate, accelerating the raw materials injected into the mixing bin 100 to collide with the rotating stirring rod 112, and the raw materials can be evenly dispersed in the mixing bin 100, so that the raw materials are evenly dispersed, and the effect of evenly mixing two or more raw materials is achieved. When the raw materials are deposited at the bottom of the mixing bin 100, the hot air transported inside the rotating mechanism 110 can be sprayed out through the nozzle 113, and the hot air flow drives the raw material powder to turn over at the bottom of the mixing bin 100, and cooperates with the rotation of the scraper 111 to achieve full and even mixing of the raw materials.
[0047] See also Figures 1 to 3 The surface of the diverter mechanism 130 is connected with a heat source pipe 132, which is connected to the heating furnace. The high-temperature gas generated by the heating furnace is introduced into the heat source pipe 132 through a blower. A plurality of feed pipes 140 are arranged on the surface of the mixing chamber 100. A plurality of evenly distributed connecting grooves 114 are opened on the surface of the rotating mechanism 110 located inside the diverter mechanism 130. A plurality of diverter pipes 131 are arranged on the surface of the diverter mechanism 130, and the diverter pipes 131 are connected to the feed pipes 140. The copper-based powder and the graphene powder can be input into the mixing chamber 100 through the feed pipes 140, and the hot air output from the heating furnace is injected into the diverter mechanism 130 through the heat source pipe 132. The hot air inside the diverter mechanism 130 is injected into the feed pipe 140 through the diverter pipe 131, and the hot air passes through the connecting grooves 114. After being injected into the rotating mechanism 110 and the hot air is injected into the feed pipe 140, it can not only preheat the raw materials, but also increase the speed of the raw materials being injected into the mixing bin 100 through the feed pipe 140. The hot air increases the temperature in the mixing bin 100 and raises the space temperature in the mixing bin 100 to between 400-600°C. The copper powder absorbs the heat of the mixing bin 100, so that the temperature of the copper powder also increases. When the temperature of the copper powder rises to 400°C, the hardness and strength of the copper will be significantly reduced, that is, the copper begins to soften, and the copper can be deformed by external force. During the subsequent extrusion molding, the softened copper powder is squeezed by external force, and the contact between the copper powder and the graphene powder will be closer, thereby reducing the gap between the copper powder and the graphene powder, which is conducive to obtaining a denser billet.
[0048] See also Figure 4 A discharge port 150 is provided on the surface of the mixing bin 100 near one end of the molding mechanism 200 , and the raw materials after mixing can enter the molding bin 202 through the discharge port 150 .
[0049] See also Figure 5 The surface of the mixing bin 100 is provided with a forming mechanism 200. The bottom of the forming mechanism 200 is provided with a transmission mechanism 210.
[0050] See also Figures 5 to 7The forming mechanism 200 includes a partition 201, a first gate 220, a second gate 230, an extrusion mechanism 240, a propulsion mechanism 250 and a buckle 270. The partition 201 and the first gate 220, the second gate 230 and the inner wall of the forming mechanism 200 form a forming chamber 202, and the forming chamber 202 is located below the discharge port 150.
[0051] The inner wall of the forming mechanism 200 is provided with a slide groove 203 adapted to the first gate plate 220 and the second gate plate 230, and the surface of one end of the first gate plate 220 and the second gate plate 230 are provided with a second rebound mechanism 260, and the second rebound mechanism 260 is composed of a limit rod and a spring, and one end of the second rebound mechanism 260 is connected to the inner wall of the forming mechanism 200.
[0052] The cross section of the first gate plate 220 is L-shaped, and the surface of the first gate plate 220 is in contact with the surface of the discharge port 150. The end of the extrusion mechanism 240 that is away from the propulsion mechanism 250 is located inside the molding bin 202. A first rebound mechanism 241 is provided between the propulsion mechanism 250 and the partition plate 201, and the first rebound mechanism 241 is composed of a spring.
[0053] When the mixing is completed, the propulsion mechanism 250 moves to the side away from the molding bin 202, and the moving end of the propulsion mechanism 250 contacts the end face of the lower surface of the first gate plate 220, and drives the first gate plate 220 to move along the slide groove 203, so that the first gate plate 220 moves in the direction away from the molding bin 202, thereby connecting the discharge port 150 with the molding bin 202, and the mixed raw materials can fall into the molding bin 202.
[0054] The extrusion mechanism 240 is slidably installed inside the partition 201, and one end of the propulsion mechanism 250 is in contact with the surface of one end of the extrusion mechanism 240. When the raw material falls into the molding bin 202, the extrusion mechanism 240 is acted upon by the elastic force of the first rebound mechanism 241, and one end of the extrusion mechanism 240 located in the molding bin 202 is always in contact with the surface of the partition 201, thereby preventing the extrusion mechanism 240 from affecting the filling of the raw material in the molding bin 202.
[0055] See also Figure 8 The inner wall of the forming mechanism 200 is provided with a guide groove 204 , the surface of the second gate plate 230 is provided with a plurality of slots 231 , and the inside of the slots 231 is provided with a plurality of teeth 232 .
[0056] See also Fig. 9 A plurality of buckles 270 are disposed on the surface of one end of the pushing mechanism 250 close to the squeezing mechanism 240 , and a guide rod 271 is disposed on the surface of each of the plurality of buckles 270 .
[0057] The buckle 270 further includes a spring piece 272 . The spring piece 272 is located inside the buckle 270 , and the cross section of the spring piece 272 is V-shaped.
[0058] After the raw materials fill the molding bin 202, the pushing mechanism 250 pushes out toward the molding bin 202, and the first gate plate 220 is reset under the elastic action of the second rebound mechanism 260 to block the discharge port 150. When the ejection end of the pushing mechanism 250 contacts the extrusion mechanism 240, the pushing mechanism 250 moves together with the extrusion mechanism 240 toward the molding bin 202, and the extrusion mechanism 240 extrude the mixed powder in the molding bin 202 to form a mixed powder blank. When the ejection end of the pushing mechanism 250 contacts the extrusion mechanism 240, the buckle 270 on the surface of the pushing mechanism 250 moves along the slot 231 on the surface of the second gate plate 230. As the pushing mechanism 250 continues to be ejected, the buckle 270 moves between the teeth 232. The spring piece 272 maintains the engagement between the buckle 270 and the teeth 232 through elastic force. When the extrusion is completed, the pushing mechanism 250 retracts, and the buckle 270 moves following the reset stroke of the pushing mechanism 250. Through the engagement between the buckle 270 and the teeth 232, the second gate plate 230 is driven to move along the slide groove 203, thereby opening the space below the forming bin 202, and the extruded blank falls to the surface of the transmission mechanism 210, and the blank is output.
[0059] When the second gate plate 230 completes opening the space below the molding bin 202, and before the ejection end of the propulsion mechanism 250 contacts the lower end surface of the first gate plate 220, the guide rod 271 on the surface of the buckle 270 will follow the movement of the propulsion mechanism 250 and enter the guide groove 204. The end of the guide groove 204 is inclined, and the guide rod 271 can be lifted, thereby lifting the buckle 270 through the guide rod 271, so that the buckle 270 is disengaged from the tooth 232. The second gate plate 230 moves toward the molding bin 202 under the elastic reaction force of the second rebound mechanism 260, so as to close the opening below the molding bin 202, and achieve the effect of controlling the movement of the first gate plate 220 and the second gate plate 230 without the need for additional propulsion equipment, thereby reducing the configuration of additional power mechanisms, which not only improves maneuverability and flexibility, but also reduces the manufacturing cost of the equipment.
[0060] See also Fig.10 A negative pressure mechanism 300 is provided on the surface of the forming mechanism 200. The negative pressure mechanism 300 includes a gas chamber 310, a mesh plate 320, a filter screen 330 and an air pipe 340. The negative pressure mechanism 300 is connected to the inside of the forming mechanism 200, and the air pipe 340 is connected to an exhaust device. During the extrusion molding process, since the powder raw material is cooled, the gaps between the powder particles are reduced by external pressure to form a more compact billet. When the negative pressure mechanism 300 extrudes the billet, the air in the forming chamber 202 is extracted through the exhaust device to reduce the air pressure inside the forming chamber 202, thereby helping the gas inside the billet to be quickly discharged and forming a more compact billet.
[0061] The filter screen 330 is flush with the inner wall of the molding chamber 202, and the mesh plate 320 is located between the gas chamber 310 and the filter screen 330. The mesh plate 320 has evenly distributed holes on its surface. The mesh plate 320 is used to support the filter screen 330 and maintain airflow. The filter screen 330 is used to isolate the raw material powder to prevent leakage of the raw material powder. In practical applications, the mesh diameter of the filter screen 330 is selected between 10-20 nm.
[0062] Embodiment 2:
[0063] When the output temperature of the heating furnace is 800-1100°C, the output hot air raises the temperature in the mixing chamber 100 to between 800-1000°C, and the copper powder absorbs the heat of the mixing chamber 100, causing the temperature of the copper powder to also rise. When the temperature of the copper powder rises to 800-1050°C, the softening degree of the copper powder is further improved. When the temperature of the copper powder rises to 1020°C, the softening degree reaches the optimal state, with better ductility and plasticity. The contact between the copper powder and the graphene powder will be closer, thereby reducing the gap between the copper powder and the graphene powder, forming a denser billet.
[0064] The copper powder and the graphene powder are fully mixed by rotating the stirring rod 112 and the scraper 111 in the mixing chamber 100. After the mixing is completed, the mixture is discharged, and the mixture in the molding chamber 202 is extruded and molded by the molding mechanism 200. When the negative pressure mechanism 300 extrude the billet, the air in the molding chamber 202 is extracted by the exhaust device to reduce the air pressure inside the molding chamber 202, help the gas inside the billet to be discharged quickly, and form a more compact billet. The molded billet is output through the transmission mechanism 210.
[0065] Secondly, after the billet is extruded, it still has a certain temperature, which can save preheating time and speed up the melting speed in the subsequent heating and melting process of the billet.
[0066] Working principle: In the actual production process, copper-based powder and graphene powder can be fed into the mixing chamber 100 through the feed pipe 140, and the hot air output by the heating furnace is injected into the diversion mechanism 130 through the heat source pipe 132, and the hot air inside the diversion mechanism 130 is injected into the feed pipe 140 through the diversion pipe 131, and the hot air is injected into the rotating mechanism 110 through the connecting groove 114. After the hot air is injected into the feed pipe 140, it can not only preheat the raw materials, but also increase the speed of the raw materials injected into the mixing chamber 100 through the feed pipe 140. The hot air will mix The temperature in the bin 100 increases, and the temperature of the space in the mixing bin 100 is raised to between 400-1100°C. The copper powder absorbs the heat of the mixing bin 100, so that the temperature of the copper powder also increases. When the temperature of the copper powder rises to 400°C, the hardness and strength of the copper will be significantly reduced, that is, the copper begins to soften, and the copper can be deformed by external force. During the subsequent extrusion molding, the softened copper powder is squeezed by the external force, and the contact between the copper powder and the graphene powder will be closer, thereby reducing the gap between the copper powder and the graphene powder, which is conducive to obtaining a denser billet.
[0067] The driving mechanism 120 drives the rotating mechanism 110 to rotate, accelerating the raw materials injected into the mixing bin 100 to collide with the rotating stirring rod 112, and the raw materials can be evenly dispersed in the mixing bin 100, so that the raw materials are evenly dispersed, and the effect of evenly mixing two or more raw materials is achieved. When the raw materials are deposited at the bottom of the mixing bin 100, the hot air transported inside the rotating mechanism 110 can be sprayed out through the nozzle 113, and the hot air flow drives the raw material powder to turn over at the bottom of the mixing bin 100, and cooperates with the rotation of the scraper 111 to achieve full and even mixing of the raw materials.
[0068] When the mixing is completed, the pushing mechanism 250 moves to the side away from the molding bin 202, and the moving end of the pushing mechanism 250 contacts the end face of the lower surface of the first gate plate 220, and drives the first gate plate 220 to move along the slide groove 203, so that the first gate plate 220 moves in the direction away from the molding bin 202, thereby connecting the discharge port 150 with the molding bin 202, and the mixed raw materials can fall into the molding bin 202. During this process, the extrusion mechanism 240 is acted on by the elastic force of the first rebound mechanism 241, and the end of the extrusion mechanism 240 located in the molding bin 202 is always in contact with the surface of the partition 201.
[0069] After the raw materials fill the molding bin 202, the pushing mechanism 250 pushes out toward the molding bin 202, and the first gate plate 220 is reset under the elastic action of the second rebound mechanism 260 to block the discharge port 150. When the ejection end of the pushing mechanism 250 contacts the extrusion mechanism 240, the pushing mechanism 250 moves together with the extrusion mechanism 240 toward the molding bin 202, and the extrusion mechanism 240 extrude the mixed powder in the molding bin 202 to form a mixed powder blank. When the ejection end of the pushing mechanism 250 contacts the extrusion mechanism 240, the buckle 270 on the surface of the pushing mechanism 250 moves along the slot 231 on the surface of the second gate plate 230. As the pushing mechanism 250 continues to be ejected, the buckle 270 moves between the teeth 232. The spring piece 272 maintains the engagement between the buckle 270 and the teeth 232 through elastic force. When the extrusion is completed, the pushing mechanism 250 retracts, and the buckle 270 moves following the reset stroke of the pushing mechanism 250. Through the engagement between the buckle 270 and the teeth 232, the second gate plate 230 is driven to move along the slide groove 203, thereby opening the space below the forming bin 202, and the extruded blank falls to the surface of the transmission mechanism 210, and the blank is output.
[0070] When the second gate plate 230 completes opening the space below the molding bin 202, and before the ejection end of the propulsion mechanism 250 contacts the lower end surface of the first gate plate 220, the guide rod 271 on the surface of the buckle 270 will follow the movement of the propulsion mechanism 250 and enter the guide groove 204. The end of the guide groove 204 is inclined, and the guide rod 271 can be lifted, thereby lifting the buckle 270 through the guide rod 271, so that the buckle 270 is disengaged from the tooth 232. The second gate plate 230 moves toward the molding bin 202 under the elastic reaction force of the second rebound mechanism 260, so as to close the opening below the molding bin 202, and achieve the effect of controlling the movement of the first gate plate 220 and the second gate plate 230 without the need for additional propulsion equipment, thereby reducing the configuration of additional power mechanisms, which not only improves maneuverability and flexibility, but also reduces the manufacturing cost of the equipment.
[0071] During the extrusion molding process, since the powder raw material is heated, the hardness and strength of the copper will be significantly reduced. The copper can be deformed by external force, and the softened copper powder is squeezed by the external force. The contact between the copper powder and the graphene powder will be closer, thereby reducing the gap between the copper powder and the graphene powder to form a denser billet. When the negative pressure mechanism 300 extrude the billet, the air in the molding chamber 202 is extracted through the vacuum equipment, thereby reducing the air pressure inside the molding chamber 202, helping the gas inside the billet to be quickly discharged, and forming a denser billet.
[0072] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description, and it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims be included in the invention. Any reference numeral in a claim should not be considered as limiting the claim to which it relates.
