Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of mechanical processing, in particular to a CO2 gas temperature control and dry ice particle processing coupled system and method. BACKGROUND

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

[0003] With the rapid development of high-end equipment in various fields, high-efficiency and precision low-damage machining of titanium alloy difficult-to-machine materials has become a key technology in the main technology group of advanced manufacturing. However, due to the low thermal conductivity, low elastic modulus, high chemical activity and other characteristics of titanium alloy, the cutting force and heat in the cutting zone rise sharply during cutting (especially grinding), which easily leads to fast tool wear, low material removal rate and other problems, and seriously affects the machining surface quality and machining precision. Therefore, as a typical difficult-to-machine material, titanium alloy has very high requirements for cutting environment.

[0004] In industry, the use of water-based coolants for cooling and lubrication is the most common method. When machining Ti-6Al-4V using traditional coolants, the cutting speed range is only 30-60 m / min. In addition, traditional pouring type cutting fluids contain harmful substances such as nitrite, which not only poses a threat to the environment and the health of operators, but also greatly increases the cost of cutting fluid post-processing, and has already been unable to meet the current green and efficient requirements.

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

[0006] MQL, as an environmentally friendly process, can improve overall machining quality to some extent. Compared with dry cutting, MQL improves tool life and surface quality under different cutting conditions. Although the effectiveness of MQL has been proven by a large number of studies, some scholars have found that due to the insufficient cooling capacity of air flow, the machinability of MQL is limited when machining difficult-to-machine materials at high speed, which may lead to large cutting force, high cutting temperature and failure of lubrication function.

[0007] Therefore, as an improvement of traditional MQL technology, scholars combine low-temperature technology with minimum quantity lubrication technology to form cryogenic minimum quantity lubrication (CMQL). CMQL is an important green cutting technology. CMQL introduces compressed subzero gas or other low-temperature medium (such as nitrogen, liquid nitrogen (LN2)), and supercritical CO2 (sc(CO2)) together with MQL mist to enhance cooling and lubrication. This method combines the advantages of MQL and low-temperature machining, significantly improves the heat transfer efficiency in the cutting area, and eliminates the limitations of MQL. The use of CMQL technology can reduce cutting force and tool wear, effectively suppress the generation of cutting temperature, and improve tool life. The lubrication effect of CMQL is equivalent to that of traditional cutting fluid, but the amount of lubricating fluid is only 1% of that of traditional cutting fluid.

[0008] CO2 is one of the most commonly used media in low-temperature processing, and its temperature directly affects the heat transfer efficiency in the processing and the surface quality of the processed workpiece. Therefore, in the low-temperature processing process using CO2 as the heat transfer medium, liquid CO2 is converted into gas with solid particles when the pressure changes suddenly. During the conversion of liquid CO2 into gas, the temperature drops, and the converted gas is directly input into the nozzle for low-temperature lubrication, which cannot achieve reasonable control of the temperature of CO2 gas. Moreover, the dry ice particles contained in the gas not only easily affect the surface processing quality of the workpiece, but also easily block the nozzle. Therefore, 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 (patent number: 202010376436.6) in the prior art discloses a multi-loop circulating gas temperature control method. The invention sets up two independent heating circuits and cooling circuits, and sets up the heating circuit and the cooling circuit as multi-segment detour circuits, and sets up an outlet and an electromagnetic valve at the detour segment near the gas outlet of the heating circuit and the cooling circuit. Different required gases are heated or cooled through the heating circuit and the cooling circuit, respectively, and the temperature of the gas in each detour segment is monitored by the temperature sensor arranged in each detour segment, and the heat absorption device or the heating device is used to control the temperature of the gas, and finally discharged at the set temperature detour segment. The invention sets up the heating circuit and the cooling circuit as multi-segment detour circuits, which can heat or cool the gas in a small floor space, and can control different temperatures in different detour segments. 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 dry ice particle processing method (patent number: 201510560465.7) discloses a dry ice particle processor and a dry ice particle processing method, which utilizes the method of vertically arranging pipes, reducing pipe diameter and setting screen to crush dry ice particles for multiple times. The invention solves the problem that the particle diameter of dry ice particles is large, the destructive power is large, and the cleaning of instruments or equipment with high precision requirements cannot be realized, and improves the particle cleaning status of the dry ice cleaning industry.

[0011] But the above-mentioned scheme is not for CO2 gas temperature control system in low temperature processing process, can't control the CO2 gas temperature before entering the nozzle reasonably, also can't effectively process dry ice particles, can't completely adapt to CMQL low temperature processing system.

[0068] In addition, the third storage tank 12 is provided with a temperature control assembly 30 and a fourth electromagnetic valve 29, the temperature control assembly includes a second temperature sensor, a temperature controller and a heat exchanger, the temperature controller is an existing temperature controller, and the temperature adjustment range of the temperature controller is 0℃ to-60℃, 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 electromagnetic 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, which is arranged outside 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 to exchange heat and reduce the temperature of the heat exchange medium, when the temperature in the third storage tank 12 is reduced to the set temperature, the fourth electromagnetic valve 29 is opened by the temperature controller, so that the temperature of the heat exchange medium is adjusted according to the actual situation and the flow direction of the heat exchange medium is controlled into the first storage tank 9.

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