Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of film coating technology, and in particular relates to a film coating device and method for the inner wall of a slender tube with a deep inner hole of a small or medium diameter. Background Art

[0002] Small and medium-sized caliber, deep-bore, and slender pipes have been widely used in key fields such as petrochemicals, gas transportation, and weapons and equipment due to their unique advantages. However, in practical applications, the inner wall of the pipe is often faced with the challenges of harsh environments such as corrosion, oxidation, wear, erosion, and ablation. Therefore, depositing or plating a protective film on the inner wall of the pipe has become a widely recognized and efficient surface treatment method, which effectively improves the surface properties of the inner wall of the pipe. This protective film can provide the inner wall of the pipe with multiple protective properties such as anti-oxidation, corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and ablation resistance, which is of great significance for extending the service life of key components such as high-pressure petrochemical small and medium-caliber pipelines, highly corrosive toxic and harmful gas transportation pipelines, and artillery barrels.

[0003] In the prior art, when the magnetron sputtering technology is used to coat the inner wall of the pipe, the permanent magnet is placed inside the target material, which makes the target material occupy a larger space inside the pipe. For small and medium-caliber pipes, this layout reduces the target-substrate distance between the target material and the inner wall of the pipe, shortens the acceleration path of the particles, resulting in insufficient deposition energy, which in turn affects the quality of the coating layer and makes it difficult to meet the performance requirements of the inner wall of the pipe under harsh working conditions. In addition, this design increases the difficulty of loading and unloading small and medium-caliber pipes and targets, and due to the limitation of the space inside the pipe, the cooling pipeline system of the target material is difficult to arrange effectively, resulting in difficulty in heat dissipation of the internal permanent magnet, thereby causing high temperature and demagnetization of the magnet, further affecting the long-term stability and reliability of the coating equipment.

[0004] In the current technology, when magnetron sputtering technology is used for coating, a target material of the same length as the tube is usually used. However, for small and medium-caliber, deep-bore, and slender tubes, the design of the target material is relatively complex and the processing is extremely difficult, which not only makes it difficult to ensure the accuracy and purity of the target material, but also significantly increases the cost. In addition, the difficulties faced by the ultra-long target material during transportation and installation further increase the cost and complexity of the entire process. Summary of the invention

Through this innovative device and coating method, the problems existing in the prior art, such as too small target-substrate distance, short particle acceleration distance, insufficient deposition energy, etc., can be effectively solved. At the same time, it can also deal with the loading and unloading problems of slender tubes with deep inner holes and the heat dissipation problem of permanent magnets inside the target material.

Example

[0029] Figure 1 Schematic diagram of a coating device for the inner wall of a slender tube with a deep inner hole of a small or medium diameter provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the coating device includes a control unit and a coating unit.

[0030] The control unit includes a vacuum chamber 1 for installing and placing small and medium-sized diameter deep inner bore slender tubes 100 and an air intake module (not shown). The vacuum chamber 1 is used to install and place small and medium-sized diameter deep inner bore slender tubes and provide the required vacuum environment, and the air intake module is used to inject the required working gas into the vacuum chamber.

[0031] The coating assembly includes a target material 2, a magnetic coil 3 and a driving module. The target material 2 is used to be installed in the tube 100 and is located on the central axis of the tube 100. The magnetic coil 3 can be slidably mounted on the wall of the vacuum chamber 1 (to provide a uniform magnetic field environment for the coating device) and is coaxially arranged with the target material 2. The output end of the driving module is respectively connected to the target material 2 and the magnetic coil 3 to drive the target material 2 and the magnetic coil 3 to move synchronously along the axial direction of the tube 100.

[0032] For a coating device for the inner wall of a small or medium-sized caliber, deep inner hole and slender tube provided in an embodiment of the present invention, when coating the inner wall of a small or medium-sized caliber, deep inner hole and slender tube 100, the vacuum chamber 1 provides a vacuum environment, and the air intake module can inject the required working gas into the vacuum chamber 1, so that the working gas is subsequently ionized under the action of the magnetic coil 3 and bombards the target material 2.

[0033] Furthermore, since the target material 2 is used to be installed in the tube 100 and is located on the central axis of the tube 100, the magnetic coil 3 can be slidably sleeved on the wall of the vacuum chamber 1 and is coaxially arranged with the target material 2, and the output end of the driving module is respectively connected to the target material 2 and the magnetic coil 3 (the magnetic coil 3 provides a magnetic field). On the one hand, the target material 2 can be set in the tube 100, and the magnetic coil 3 can be set on the wall of the vacuum chamber 1, without the need to place a permanent magnet inside the target material 2, so that the two can be set separately, which not only facilitates the installation of the target material 2 and the magnetic coil 3 separately, but also reduces the volume of the target material 2, thereby facilitating the installation of the target material 2 in the small and medium-caliber tube 100; at the same time, the target-substrate distance between the target material 2 and the tube 100 is increased, the acceleration distance of the particles is increased, and the coating quality is improved. On the other hand, driven by the driving module, the target material 2 and the magnetic coil 3 move synchronously. While ensuring that they are relatively still and uniformly coated along the axial direction of the tube 100, there is no need to set an overly long target material 2 and the magnetic coil 3, which greatly reduces the axial length of the target material 2 and the magnetic coil 3, reduces the manufacturing difficulty of the target material 2 and the magnetic coil 3, and thus reduces the cost.

[0034] That is to say, the coating device for the inner wall of a small and medium-caliber deep-bore slender tube provided by an embodiment of the present invention can not only effectively reduce the manufacturing difficulty of the target material 2 and the magnetic coil 3 and reduce the cost, but also facilitate the installation of the target material 2 in the small and medium-caliber tube 100, increase the acceleration distance of the particles, and improve the coating quality.

[0035] In addition, the coating device is suitable for small and medium diameter and deep inner hole slender tubes 100, specifically, the length of the tube 100 is less than 7000mm, the inner diameter of the tube 100 is less than 100mm, and it is particularly suitable for 40mm and below diameter deep inner hole slender tubes. The formed film layer can be a metal, ceramic coating or multi-phase composite coating, and the film layer can also be a composite multi-layer or gradient structure, which is not limited by the present invention.

[0036] For example, the target material 2 may have a diameter of less than 30 mm and a length of less than 2000 mm. The inner diameter of the vacuum chamber 1 is 50-500 mm and the length is less than 10000 mm, which is not only convenient for installing and placing the tube 100, but also can provide a vacuum environment. The diameter of the magnetic coil 3 may be 50-550 mm and the length may be less than 2000 mm.

[0037] For example, the working gas injected by the air intake module may be argon, nitrogen, methane, etc. The vacuum chamber 1 has a plurality of air intake ports 11 arranged at intervals, and each air intake port 11 is connected to the air intake module.

[0038] It is easy to understand that in other embodiments of the present invention, the coating device may also include two coating units, which are arranged at both ends of the tube 100 respectively, that is, coating is performed synchronously from both ends of the tube 100 to the middle of the tube 100, thereby improving the coating efficiency.

[0039] In one implementation of the present invention, the driving module includes a driving member 4 and a support frame 5, the output end of the driving member 4 is transmission-connected to the support frame 5, the support frame 5 has a first support rod 51 and multiple second support rods 52, the first support rod 51 is located between the multiple second support rods 52, the first support rod 51 is fixedly connected to the target material 2, and the multiple second support rods 52 are fixedly connected to the magnetic coil 3.

[0040] In the above embodiment, the driving member 4 can drive the support frame 5 to move in the horizontal direction, and the support frame 5 can synchronously drive the first support rod 51 and the plurality of second support rods 52 to move in the horizontal direction, thereby respectively driving the target material 2 and the plurality of magnetic coils 3 to move synchronously in the horizontal direction. The plurality of second support rods 52 play a role in supporting and connecting the magnetic coils 3.

[0041] Exemplarily, a sealing ring is installed in the vacuum chamber 1, and the first support rod 51 is installed in the sealing ring and penetrates the vacuum chamber 1. The driving member 4 and the support frame 5 are located outside the vacuum chamber 1.

[0042] In addition, the driving member 4 may be a linear motion module or a cylinder, which is not limited in the present invention.

[0043] In order to ensure the reliability of the target 2 when it moves, a guide rod 12 is slidably inserted on the vacuum chamber 1 , the target 2 is coaxially connected to the guide rod 12 , and the target 2 is located between the guide rod 12 and the driving member 4 .

[0044] In another implementation of the present invention, the driving module may also include two driving units, that is, the output end of one driving unit is transmission connected to the magnetic coil 3, and the output end of the other driving unit is transmission connected to the target material 2, and the two driving units are synchronously controlled by an electronic control program, thereby realizing synchronous drive movement of the magnetic coil 3 and the target material 2.

[0045] Continue to see Figure 1 A cooling channel 21 is provided in the target material 2, one end of the cooling channel 21 is used to communicate with the water inlet pipe, and the other end of the cooling channel 21 is used to communicate with the water outlet pipe. The cooling channel 21 can realize water inlet and outlet. During the coating process, the excess heat of the target material 2 during the coating process is taken away by the flow and heat absorption of water, so as to cool and dissipate heat for the coating device.

[0046] Furthermore, both ends of the cooling channel 21 are arranged toward the driving module, and the cooling channel 21 may be a U-shaped structure. The U-shaped structure of the cooling channel 21 may increase the heat dissipation efficiency.

[0047] In this embodiment, a plurality of slide rails extending along the axial direction of the tube 100 are arranged on the wall of the vacuum chamber 1, and the magnetic coil 3 is slidably matched with the plurality of slide rails. The slide rails guide the sliding of the magnetic coil 3.

[0048] Exemplarily, the magnetic coil 3 is fixed on a slider, and the slider is slidably matched with the slide rail.

[0049] In one implementation of the present invention, the coating unit also includes a first motor and a second motor (not shown in the figure), the output end of the driving module is respectively connected to the first motor and the second motor, the output shaft of the first motor is connected to the target material 2, the output shaft of the second motor is connected to the magnetic coil 3, and the output shaft of the first motor and the output shaft of the second motor are both arranged along the axial direction of the tube, and rotate in opposite directions.

[0050] It is easy to understand that while the driving module drives the first motor, the second motor, the target material 2 and the magnetic coil 3 to move horizontally for coating, the first motor simultaneously drives the target material 2 to rotate clockwise, while the second motor drives the magnetic coil 3 to rotate counterclockwise, so that the target material 2 rotates in different directions, thereby improving the density and uniformity of the coating.

[0051] In this embodiment, the coating device also includes a heating coil 6, which is coaxially sleeved on the outer wall of the tube 100, and the output end of the driving module is transmission-connected to the heating coil 6 to drive the target material 2 and the heating coil 6 to move synchronously along the axial direction of the tube 100. The heating coil 6 can make the tube 100 reach the temperature required for coating.

[0052] Figure 2 Flow chart of a coating method for the inner wall of a slender tube with a deep inner hole of a small or medium diameter provided by an embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 2 As shown, the coating method is based on the above-mentioned coating device, and the coating method includes: S1. Place the tube 100 in the vacuum chamber 1.

[0053] S2. Inject gas into the vacuum chamber through the air intake module and provide power, connect the negative pole of the bias power supply to the tube 100, connect the negative pole of the sputtering power supply to the target material 2, and the vacuum chamber is the positive pole and connected to the ground.

[0054] S3, the target material 2 and the magnetic coil 3 are driven by the driving module to move back and forth synchronously along the axial direction of the tube 100, and the ionized working gas bombards the target material 2 to coat the inner wall of the tube 100.

[0055] It will be easily understood by those skilled in the art that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
