Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of mechanical processing technology, in particular to a CO2 gas temperature control and dry ice particle processing coupling system, application and method. Background Art

[0002] The statements in this section merely provide background information related to the present invention and do not necessarily constitute prior art.

[0003] With the rapid development of high-end equipment in various fields, efficient, precise and low-damage processing of difficult-to-process titanium alloy materials has become a key technology in the advanced manufacturing main technology group. However, due to its low thermal conductivity, low elastic modulus, high chemical activity and other characteristics, the force and heat in the cutting zone of titanium alloys rise sharply during cutting (especially grinding), which can easily lead to problems such as rapid tool wear and low material removal rate, and serious loss of processing surface quality and processing accuracy. It can be seen that as a typical difficult-to-process material, titanium alloys have extremely high requirements for the cutting environment.

[0004] In industry, the use of water-based coolants for cooling and lubrication is the most common method. When using traditional coolants to process Ti-6Al-4V, the cutting speed range is only 30-60m / min. In addition, traditional pouring cutting fluids contain harmful substances such as nitrites, which not only threaten the environment and the health of operators, but also greatly increase the cost of cutting fluid post-processing, which can no longer meet the current green and efficient requirements.

[0005] To achieve a cleaner production process, some green manufacturing technologies such as minimum quantity lubrication (MQL), cryogenic minimum quantity lubrication (CMQL) and nanofluid minimum quantity lubrication (NMQL) have been developed to effectively improve machining performance and reduce hazards.

[0006] As an environmentally friendly process, MQL can improve the overall machining quality to a certain extent. Under different cutting conditions, MQL has improved tool life and surface quality compared with dry cutting. Although the effectiveness of MQL has been proven by a large number of studies, some scholars have found that due to insufficient airflow cooling capacity, the machinability of MQL is limited when machining difficult-to-machine materials at high speeds, which may lead to large cutting forces, excessive cutting temperatures, and failure of lubrication function.

[0007] Therefore, as an improvement on the traditional MQL technology, scholars have combined cryogenic technology with minimum quantity lubrication technology to form cryogenic minimum quantity lubrication technology (CMQL). CMQL technology is an important green cutting technology. CMQL enhances the cooling and lubrication capabilities by introducing compressed sub-zero airflow or other cryogenic media (such as nitrogen, liquid nitrogen (LN2)), supercritical CO2 (sc(CO2)) together with MQL mist flow. This method combines the advantages of MQL and cryogenic machining, and eliminates the limitations of MQL by significantly improving the heat transfer efficiency in the cutting area. The use of CMQL technology can reduce cutting force and tool wear, effectively inhibit the generation of cutting temperature, and increase tool life. The lubrication effect of CMQL is equivalent to that of traditional cutting fluid, but the amount of lubricant used is only 1% of that of traditional cutting fluid.

[0008] CO2 is one of the most commonly used media in low-temperature machining. Its temperature directly affects the heat exchange efficiency and the surface quality of the workpiece being machined. Therefore, in the low-temperature machining process using CO2 as the heat exchange medium, liquid CO2 is converted into gas under the condition of sudden pressure change and is doped with solid particles. The temperature of liquid CO2 drops during the conversion to gas. Directly inputting the converted gas into the nozzle for low-temperature lubrication cannot achieve reasonable control of the CO2 gas temperature. In addition, the dry ice particles contained in the gas are not only likely to affect the surface machining quality of the workpiece, but also easy to clog the nozzle. It is particularly important to reasonably control the temperature range of CO2 gas and reduce the influence of dry ice particles on the surface quality of the workpiece.

[0009] A multi-loop circulating gas temperature control method in the prior art (patent number: 202010376436.6) discloses a multi-loop circulating gas temperature control method, which sets two independent heating circuits and cooling circuits, and sets the heating circuit and the cooling circuit into multi-section circuits, and the heating circuit and the cooling circuit are provided with outlets and solenoid valves at the detour sections near the outlets; the gases with different needs are heated or cooled respectively through the heating circuit and the cooling circuit, and the gas temperature in each detour section is monitored according to the temperature sensors set in each detour section, and the gas temperature is controlled by a heat absorption device or a heating device, and finally discharged at the set temperature detour section. This invention sets the heating circuit and the cooling circuit into multi-section circuits, so that the gas can be heated or cooled in a smaller space, and different temperatures of different detour sections can be controlled. In addition, the heat absorbed by the cooling circuit can provide a certain heat source for the heating circuit, reducing energy consumption.

[0010] In addition, a dry ice particle processor and a method for processing dry ice particles (patent number: 201510560465.7) discloses a dry ice particle processor and a method for processing dry ice particles, which utilizes the method of vertically arranging pipes, reducing pipe diameters, and setting screens to break dry ice particles multiple times. This invention solves the problem that dry ice particles have large particle diameters and great destructive power, and cannot be used to clean instruments or equipment with high precision requirements, and improves the current situation in which particle cleaning in the dry ice cleaning industry is completely blank.

[0011] However, the above solutions are not for the CO2 gas temperature control system during the low-temperature processing. They cannot reasonably control the CO2 gas temperature before entering the nozzle, nor can they effectively process the dry ice particles, and cannot be fully adapted to the CMQL low-temperature processing system. Summary of the invention

[0012] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a CO2 gas temperature control and dry ice particle processing coupling system to achieve the coupling of gas temperature control and dry ice particle processing, which can control the CO2 gas temperature while effectively processing the dry ice particles.

In addition, it should be understood that when the terms "include" and / or "include" are used in this specification, it indicates the presence of features, steps, operations, devices, components and / or combinations thereof;

[0052] As introduced in the background technology, the prior art has the problem that the temperature of CO2 gas is inconvenient to control during low-temperature processing. In order to solve the above technical problem, the present invention proposes a CO2 gas temperature control and dry ice particle processing coupling system.

[0053] Embodiment 1

[0054] In a typical embodiment of the present invention, reference is made to Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, a CO2 gas temperature control and dry ice particle processing coupling system comprises:

[0055] Gas temperature control unit: The gas temperature control unit includes a working chamber 1, which includes a plurality of air chambers. Two adjacent air chambers can be connected or disconnected. One side of the working chamber 1 is connected to a first storage tank 9, which provides heat exchange medium to the working chamber 1. Each air chamber is respectively connected to a second storage tank 10 to temporarily store the heat exchange medium after heat exchange. The first storage tank 9 is connected to the second storage tank 10;

[0056] The dry ice particle processing unit includes a gas pipeline 2 arranged in each gas chamber. Each gas pipeline 2 is bent in the corresponding gas chamber. The gas pipelines 2 of two adjacent gas chambers are connected. The gas pipeline is used for the passage of low-temperature CO2. A dry ice crushing component is arranged in the gas pipeline 2.

[0057] refer to Figure 2 As shown, the gas temperature control unit includes a working chamber 1, a first storage tank 9, a second storage tank 10 and a third storage tank 12. The working chamber 1 is connected to the first storage tank 9 and the second storage tank 10 respectively. The third storage tank 12 is arranged between the first storage tank 9 and the second storage tank 10. The second storage tank 10 is communicated with each air chamber in the working chamber 1 respectively. The outer surface of the working chamber 1 is wrapped with a heat insulation layer, and the material of the heat insulation layer is any one of aerogel and mineral wool.

[0058] It is easy to understand that the first storage tank 9 stores a heat exchange medium, the heat exchange medium is oxygen or nitrogen, and the first storage tank is connected to the working chamber 1 through the air inlet pipe;

[0059] refer to Figure 3 As shown, the interior of the working chamber 1 is divided into several groups of air chambers, and the gas pipeline 2 is placed in each air chamber. Each gas pipeline 2 is connected after passing through the side wall of the air chamber. The gas pipeline 2 passes through one side wall of the working chamber 1 to form a CO2 gas inlet 3. The gas pipeline 2 in the last air chamber passes through one side wall of the working chamber 1 to form a CO2 gas outlet 4, and the gas pipeline 2 located inside each group of air chambers is inverted U-shape.

[0060] The connection between the gas pipeline 2 and the inner wall of each gas chamber is sealed with a sealing ring, the diameter of the gas pipeline is set between 30-50 mm, and the interval between each circuitous section of the gas pipeline 2 is set at 5-10 cm. The gas pipeline 2 and the connecting pipe are made of stainless steel, which has the advantages of impact resistance, no deformation, good sealing, long life, etc., and can meet the thermal conductivity requirements. The inner wall of the gas pipeline 2 is coated with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) to prevent the gas pipeline from being blocked by the adhesion of dry ice particles.

[0061] refer to Figure 4 As shown, a first solenoid valve 5 is provided between two adjacent groups of air chambers, a second solenoid valve 6 is installed at the inner top of the air chamber, several groups of second solenoid valves 6 are connected to the first connecting pipe 7, the other end of the first connecting pipe 7 is connected to the second connecting pipe 8, the other end of the second connecting pipe 8 is connected to the second storage tank 10, the end of the second storage tank 10 away from the second connecting pipe 8 is connected to the third storage tank 12 through the third connecting pipe 11, and the other end of the third storage tank 12 is connected to the first storage tank 9 through the fourth connecting pipe 13.

[0062] refer to Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, a rotating grille 15 is installed at the longer side of each gas pipeline 2, and the rotating grille 15 is fixed inside the gas pipeline 2 through a connecting rod 16. Both ends of the connecting rod 16 are connected to the gas pipeline 2 through a threaded structure, and are sealed with a cone sealing screw during installation. The sealing screw is a fine-threaded cone screw, and sealant is applied to the thread during sealing;

[0063] Specifically, the rotating grid 15 includes a rotating shaft, one end of which is connected to a rotating power source such as a micro motor, the micro motor is located in a collar 34, the collar 34 is connected to the connecting rod 16, and the other end of the rotating shaft is connected to the plurality of blades 33 respectively; the speed of the rotating shaft can be adjusted according to the size and quantity of the dry ice particles to achieve effective crushing of the dry ice particles, and the micro motor is connected to the control unit;

[0064] refer to Figure 7 As shown, each blade 33 is provided with a plurality of through holes 35, the cross section of the through holes 35 is circular, and the through holes 35 are arranged along the thickness direction of the blade 33. The arrangement of the through holes 35 effectively reduces the influence on the gas pressure in the gas pipeline 2. Since the gas pipeline 2 is arranged in an inverted U-shape, the dry ice particles impact the end surface of the inner wall of the gas pipeline and the blades of the rotating grid 14 during the process of passing through the gas pipeline 2, thereby achieving multiple crushing of the dry ice particles.

[0065] refer to Figure 4As shown, a pressure control component 31 is provided in the first storage tank 9, and the pressure control component 31 includes a pressure sensor. The pressure sensor and the fourth solenoid valve 29 are separately connected to the pressure controller. The pressure controller is an existing pressure controller, and the pressure controller is used to control the pressure of the heat exchange medium in the first storage tank 9, and the pressure is maintained at 0.3-0.5MPa.

[0066] The first storage tank 9 stores heat exchange medium, which is oxygen or nitrogen. The first storage tank 9 is connected to the working chamber 1 through an air intake pipe. The air intake pipe is provided with a regulating valve 32. The regulating valve 32 is used to transport the heat exchange medium to the working chamber 1 to heat or cool the CO2 gas. The regulating range of the regulating valve 32 is 0-0.2MPa.

[0067] It is understandable that a third solenoid valve 28 is provided in the second storage tank 10 to control the on and off of the low-temperature medium.

[0068] In addition, a temperature control component 30 and a fourth solenoid valve 29 are provided in the third storage tank 12. The temperature control component includes a second temperature sensor, a temperature controller and a heat exchanger. The temperature controller is an existing temperature controller. The temperature adjustment range of the temperature controller is 0°C to -60°C. The second temperature sensor obtains the temperature information in the third storage tank 12 and sends it to the temperature controller. The temperature controller controls the opening or closing of the heat exchanger and the fourth solenoid valve 29 according to the temperature of the heat exchange medium in the third storage tank 12. The heat exchanger is an existing commonly used heat exchanger. The heat exchanger is arranged on the outside of the third storage tank 12. When the temperature of the heat exchange medium in the third storage tank 12 is too high, the heat exchanger is opened for heat exchange to reduce the temperature of the heat exchange medium. When the temperature in the third storage tank 12 is reduced to the set temperature, the temperature controller controls the opening of the fourth solenoid valve 29. In this way, the temperature of the heat exchange medium is adjusted according to the actual situation and the heat exchange medium is controlled to flow to the first storage tank 9.

[0069] In addition, a first temperature sensor 14 is installed in each gas chamber, and the first temperature sensor 14 is connected to the controller. The first temperature sensor 14 is specifically installed on the gas pipeline 2, and is used to obtain the gas temperature information in each gas chamber and send it to the corresponding controller. The controller is respectively connected to the first solenoid valve 5 and the second solenoid valve 6 at each gas chamber, and the controller is a PLC controller or other types of controllers.

[0070] It should be noted that the regulating valve 32 and the third solenoid valve 28 are respectively connected to the control unit, and the control unit is respectively connected to the pressure control component, the controller and the temperature control component to control the operation and opening of the pressure control component, the controller and the temperature control component. The control unit is a PLC controller or other types of controllers to control the regulating valve 32 and the third solenoid valve 28.

[0071] It is easy to understand that the first solenoid valve, the second solenoid valve and the inner wall of the working chamber, and the third solenoid valve, the fourth solenoid valve and the inner wall of the corresponding storage tank are all connected by threads, and are sealed with a conical sealing screw during installation. The sealing screw is a fine-threaded conical screw. When sealing, sealant is applied to the thread, and a sealing gasket is installed;

[0072] refer to Figure 8 As shown, the structural principles of each solenoid valve are the same. Each solenoid valve includes a valve seat 27 and a valve core 26. The valve seat supports a coil 24. A moving iron core 25 is arranged in the coil 24. The moving iron core 25 is connected to the fixed iron core 22 through a spring 23. The moving iron core 25 is connected to the valve core 26. When the solenoid valve is energized, the valve core 26 moves relative to the valve seat 27, so that the flow channel of the heat exchange medium is opened, and the heat exchange medium can flow at this time.

[0073] The system provided in this embodiment has a dry ice particle processing unit including a gas pipeline 2, and the gas pipeline 2 is arranged in an air chamber. A heat exchange medium can be introduced into each air chamber, so that after the heat exchange medium enters the air chamber of the working cavity, it can exchange heat with the dry ice in the gas pipeline. After the temperature of the heat exchange medium increases, it can enter the second storage tank for temporary storage, thereby realizing the regulation of the temperature of the carbon dioxide gas in the working cavity. The gas pipeline is provided with a bend, and a dry ice crushing piece is provided in the gas pipeline, thereby realizing the control of the CO2 gas temperature and effectively crushing the dry ice to ensure the processing quality of the workpiece surface, which is fully suitable for the CMQL low-temperature processing system.

[0074] Embodiment 2

[0075] This embodiment provides an application of a CO2 gas temperature control and dry ice particle processing coupling system for cutting processing, referring to Figure 1 As shown, the CO2 gas outlet in the working chamber is connected to the nozzle 18, the nozzle 18 sprays dry ice particles and lubricating oil toward the surface of the workpiece 21, the CO2 gas inlet is connected to the CO2 bottle 17, the workpiece surface is processed by the tool 19, and the nozzle 18 is also connected to the micro-lubrication device 20 to supply lubricating oil to the nozzle, so that according to the temperature requirement of the CO2 gas provided to the nozzle, the control unit controls the opening or closing of the regulating valve and the third solenoid valve, and each controller controls the on-off of the first solenoid valve and the second solenoid valve, the pressure control component controls the fourth solenoid valve, and the temperature control component controls the fourth solenoid valve.

[0076] Embodiment 3

[0077] This embodiment provides a working method of a CO2 gas temperature control and dry ice particle processing coupling system. Fig. 9 As shown, including the following:

[0078] When dry ice enters the gas pipeline, the gas pipe and the dry ice crushing parts crush the dry ice particles multiple times because the gas pipeline is bent.

[0079] When the target gas needs to be temperature-regulated, the control unit can control the heat exchange medium to enter the working chamber 1 by opening and closing the regulating valve 32, and can also regulate the flow rate of the heat exchange medium. When the heat exchange medium enters the leftmost air chamber in the working chamber 1, the first temperature sensor 14 monitors the gas temperature in each air chamber, and the controller can control the number of air chambers opened by controlling the opening or closing of the first solenoid valve 5.

[0080] After the heat exchange medium completes heat exchange through the working chamber 1, it enters the second storage tank 10 through the first connecting pipe 7 and the second connecting pipe 8. The second storage tank 10 temporarily stores the heat exchange medium after heat exchange, and then enters the third storage tank 12 through the third connecting pipe 11.

[0081] The third storage tank 12 is provided with a temperature control component 30, which controls the opening or closing of the fourth solenoid valve according to the temperature in the third storage tank 12.
