[0002] It is crucial to study the radioactive lead-bismuth alloy for the research and development of lead-bismuth fast reactors. In the related research of radionuclides, the measurement of alpha rays involves sampling and dissolving of samples, but once the samples are dissolved, the experiment cannot be performed. At present, the most effective method for quantifying the initial sample activity is to homogenize the initial sample and take a sample in proportion, and then to obtain the total activity of the initial sample according to the experimental results of the sampling sample. Since the quantification of the initial sample activity affects the data processing and analysis of the entire experiment, it is very important to homogenize and divide the activated initial sample, and a tool capable of safely and uniformly cutting the activated initial sample needs to be developed.

[0035] Figures 1 to 6 A metal cutting jig in some embodiments of the application is shown.
[0036] As Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, the present application provides a metal cutting jig, which comprises a container 100, a cover 200, a movable top cover 300 and a lifting mechanism. The container 100 is provided with an upper opening containing groove 110 for placing the sample to be cut. Generally, the containing groove 110 is provided in a regular shape, such as a rectangular groove, to facilitate uniform cutting. The cover 200 is arranged above the containing groove 110 and is used to fix the sample in the container 100. The cover 200 is provided with a plurality of cutting holes 210 which penetrate the cover 200 in the vertical direction. The movable top cover 300 is arranged on the container 100 and above the cover 200. The movable top cover 300 is provided with a plurality of cutting blades 310 at the lower part. The cutting blades 310 are arranged at equal intervals and correspond to the cutting holes 210 one by one. The lifting mechanism is arranged between the container 100 and the movable top cover 300. The lifting mechanism drives the movable top cover 300 to move up and down. When the lifting mechanism drives the movable top cover 300 to move down, the cutting blades 310 pass through the cutting holes 210 and enter the containing groove 110 to uniformly cut the sample placed in the containing groove 110. The cutting holes 210 have the functions of calibrating the direction of the cutting blades 310 and preventing the cutting blades 310 from being damaged by bending.
[0037] In this embodiment, the lifting mechanism comprises a horizontally slidable lifting slider 400 which is arranged between the container 100 and the movable top cover 300. Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the lifting slider 400 in this embodiment is wedge-shaped. The lower part of the lifting slider 400 contacts the container 100 and is a second horizontal section 430. The upper part of the lifting slider 400 contacts the movable top cover 300 and is divided into two sections, specifically, a first horizontal section 410 and an inclined section 420. The distance between the first horizontal section 410 and the second horizontal section 430 is the height of the lifting slider 400. Figure 3 and Figure 4 Before cutting, the first horizontal section 410 of the lifting slider 400 is attached to the movable top cover 300. The first horizontal section 410 and the second horizontal section 430 of the lifting slider 400 support the movable top cover 300 and the container 100 respectively, which has strong stability and can prevent the movable top cover 300 from driving the cutting blades 310 to fall. When cutting, the lifting slider 400 is moved to the position where the first horizontal section 410 is separated from the movable top cover 300. At the same time, the inclined section 420 of the lifting slider 400 contacts the movable top cover 300. Due to the unstable support of the inclined section 420 and the action of gravity, the movable top cover 300 drives the cutting blades 310 to fall. After the cutting blades 310 fall, they pass through the cutting holes 210 and enter the containing groove 110 to uniformly cut the sample placed in the containing groove 110.Figure 5 and Figure 6 Fig. 9 shows the position of the container 100, the movable top cover 300 and the lifting slider 400 after the cutting of the metal cutting jig. When the movable top cover 300 is reset, the lifting slider 400 is moved in the opposite direction, so that the movable top cover 300 rises along the inclined wave section 420 until the lower part of the movable top cover 300 is in contact with the first horizontal section 410 of the lifting slider 400. Further, in order to guide and limit the movement of the lifting slider 400, a guide groove 421 is provided on the lifting slider 400, and a guide shaft 320 corresponding to the guide groove 421 is provided on the movable top cover 300. The guide shaft 320 extends into the guide groove 421, and under the limitation of the guide groove 421 and the guide shaft 320, the lifting slider 400 can only move in the forward and backward directions. The lifting mechanism in the embodiment adopts the lifting slider 400, which can simplify the structure and reduce the manufacturing cost of the metal cutting jig.
[0038] It is easily conceivable that in other embodiments, the inclined wave section 420 can also be provided on the contact surface between the lifting slider 400 and the container 100, or on both the contact surface between the lifting slider 400 and the container 100 and the contact surface between the lifting slider 400 and the movable top cover 300. Further, in other embodiments, other forms of lifting mechanisms can also be used, such as a screw rod mechanism.
[0039] Further, the height of the cutting blade 310 is equal to the sum of the thickness of the cover 200 and the height of the accommodation groove 110, so that after the cutting blade 310 falls, the sample can be completely cut, and at the same time, the cutting blade 310 is prevented from colliding with the bottom of the accommodation groove 110, thereby improving the service life of the cutting blade 310.
[0040] The metal cutting jig of the present application is mainly used for cutting lead-bismuth alloy. Since the melting point of lead-bismuth alloy is between more than 100 degrees Celsius and more than 200 degrees Celsius (the composition and proportion of the alloy will affect the melting point), the metal cutting jig of the present application is preferably made of a material with a melting point higher than 300℃, which can avoid damage to the metal cutting jig during the process of heating and melting the lead-bismuth alloy. The container 100 is preferably made of stainless steel or ceramic, and the cutting blade 310 is preferably made of stainless steel or ceramic.
[0041] One of the use processes of the metal cutting jig of the present application is as follows: the lead-bismuth alloy sample to be cut is placed in the accommodation groove 110, the cover 200 is covered, and then the movable top cover 300 and the lifting mechanism are installed. When assembling, the cutting blade 310 corresponds to the cutting hole 210 one by one, and the initial state of the movable top cover 300 is the high position state away from the container 100; the lead-bismuth alloy sample in the metal cutting jig is heated to warm up until the lead-bismuth alloy sample enters the molten state, wherein the heating operation can choose to put the metal cutting jig into the heating furnace to heat the metal cutting jig as a whole, and the sample in the molten state is easier to cut and can better ensure the uniformity of cutting; after the lead-bismuth alloy sample enters the molten state, the metal cutting jig is taken out and the liquid lead-bismuth alloy is shaken evenly, the lifting mechanism is operated to act, the movable top cover 300 drives the cutting blade 310 to fall, the cutting blade 310 falls through the cutting hole 210 into the accommodation groove 110, and the liquid lead-bismuth alloy in the accommodation groove 110 is divided into equal parts; the metal cutting jig is placed in cold water for quenching to realize rapid cooling of the lead-bismuth alloy; the metal cutting jig is disassembled, and the uniformly divided sample is taken out. After use, the residual metal in the jig can be cleaned with nitric acid immersion to realize repeated use of the jig.
[0042] Further, the container 100 can also be provided with a heating element, which is used to heat the sample in the accommodation groove 110 to make the sample enter the molten state without putting the metal cutting jig into the heating furnace as a whole. In order to improve the utilization rate of the heat emitted by the heating element and avoid burns caused by overheating of the container 100, the outer surface of the container 100 can also be provided with a thermal insulation layer.
[0043] The metal cutting jig of the present application can cut the metal in the molten state, can homogenize the cutting of metal samples of different shapes and sizes, avoids the problems of sample loss, generation of debris, large difference in uniformity when cutting after forming, etc. caused by cutting after metal forming, in addition, the metal cutting jig of the present application has simple structure, is easy to disassemble, clean and reuse.
[0044] The above embodiments only express the specific implementation of the present application, which is described in detail and specifically, but it cannot be understood as a limitation on the scope of the patent of the present application; it should be pointed out that for ordinary skilled persons in the art, the above technical features can be freely combined without departing from the concept of the present application, and some deformations and improvements can be made, which all belong to the protection scope of the present application; therefore, any equivalent transformation and modification within the scope of the claims of the present application shall belong to the scope of the claims of the present application.
