Description
Technical Field

[0002] NdFeB permanent magnet material is the third generation of rare earth permanent magnet material after 1:5 type and 2:17 type Sm-Co permanent magnet material. NdFeB permanent magnet material has the highest permanent magnetic properties, so it is called "magnet king". It has currently occupied a dominant position among various permanent magnet materials, especially after 2000, and has grown very rapidly, with an average annual growth rate of about 26.2%.
[0003] In 2016, the global production of NdFeB reached 146,000 tons, of which 89% was produced in China, and among the NdFeB produced, sintered NdFeB accounted for more than 94%.

[0023] Embodiment 2
[0024] Corresponding to the pulverizing device for the smelted product provided in the above-mentioned embodiment, see Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 The present invention is a schematic flow chart of a method for pulverizing a smelting product according to an embodiment of the present invention, comprising the following steps:
[0025] S1. Separate the first high-pressure chamber from the second high-pressure chamber by a first sealing device.
[0026] Specifically, the first sealing device may be a piston. The material of the first high-pressure chamber and the second high-pressure chamber may be 304 stainless steel, and other alloys that can withstand higher pressures may also be used as the material of the first high-pressure chamber and the second high-pressure chamber. It is understood that the size of the high-pressure chamber may be determined according to the processing volume of a single material, and the material includes smelting products and other materials.
[0027] In some embodiments, the first sealing device is a piston; before separating the first high-pressure chamber from the second high-pressure chamber by the first sealing device, the method further includes: connecting the front end of the first high-pressure chamber and the rear end of the second high-pressure chamber. Specifically, the front end of the first high-pressure chamber and the rear end of the second high-pressure chamber can be connected by threaded connection. The separation of the first high-pressure chamber and the second high-pressure chamber by the first sealing device includes: installing a piston to the connection between the first high-pressure chamber and the second high-pressure chamber to separate the interior of the first high-pressure chamber from the interior of the second high-pressure chamber; the sealing of the first high-pressure chamber by the second sealing device includes: installing the second sealing device to the rear end of the first high-pressure chamber to seal the first high-pressure chamber. In order to separate the smelting product and other materials in the preset material, the first preset amount of the smelting product is put into the interior of the first high-pressure chamber, including: putting the preset material mixed with the first preset amount of the smelting product into the interior of the first high-pressure chamber, wherein the preset material includes the smelting product and other materials.
[0028] It can be understood that the first sealing device is installed at the connection between the first high-pressure chamber and the second high-pressure chamber, that is, installed at the front end of the first high-pressure chamber and the rear end of the second high-pressure chamber to separate the first high-pressure chamber from the second high-pressure chamber. The front end of the second high-pressure chamber can be in a sealed state, and when the sealing device is used to separate the first high-pressure chamber and the second high-pressure chamber, the front end of the first high-pressure chamber and the rear end of the second high-pressure chamber are also sealed.
[0029] S2. Adding a first preset amount of smelting product into the first high-pressure chamber, and sealing the first high-pressure chamber by a second sealing device; wherein the second sealing device includes a flameproof disc and a sealing head.
[0030] Specifically, the smelting product can be a smelting product in the process of preparing NdFeB permanent magnet materials by sintering method, and the material of the explosion-proof plate can be 304 stainless steel, or other materials with certain shear strength can be used as the material of the explosion-proof plate. When the first high-pressure chamber is sealed by the second sealing device, the second sealing device is installed to the rear end of the first high-pressure chamber to seal the first high-pressure chamber. It can be understood that the explosion-proof plate can be installed first and then the sealing head can be tightened. The explosion-proof plate is first installed on the end face of the rear end of the first high-pressure chamber, and then the sealing head is tightened. The explosion-proof plate is tightly connected with the inner surface of the sealing head along the circumferential direction. The explosion-proof plate is blocked at the rear end of the first high-pressure chamber by the cooperation of the explosion-proof plate and the sealing head.
[0031] S3. Filling a second preset amount of high-pressure gas into the first high-pressure chamber so that the explosion-proof disc is subjected to a preset pressure; wherein the preset pressure is less than the maximum pressure that the explosion-proof disc can withstand.
[0032] It is understandable that high-pressure gas can be filled into the interior of the first high-pressure chamber through the first needle valve, and a second preset amount of high-pressure gas can be filled into the interior of the first high-pressure chamber, so that the inside and outside of the internal smelting product of the first high-pressure chamber can be filled with high-pressure gas.
[0033] In some embodiments, the method further includes: determining the maximum pressure that the explosion-proof disc can withstand based on the thickness and shear strength of the explosion-proof disc.
[0034] It can be understood that the pressure p that the explosion-proof disc withstands when the second preset amount of high-pressure gas is filled needs to be less than the maximum pressure that the explosion-proof disc can withstand, that is, Where r is the inner diameter of the first high-pressure chamber, d is the thickness of the explosion-proof disk, The shear strength of the explosion-proof disc material is determined by the material. Specifically, when the first high-pressure chamber is charged with high-pressure gas for the first time, the pressure applied to the explosion-proof disc is generally half of the shear strength that the explosion-proof disc can withstand.
[0035] In some embodiments, the high pressure gas includes at least one of the following: air, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide.
[0036] S4. Filling a third preset amount of high-pressure gas into the interior of the second high-pressure chamber; wherein the third preset amount is equal to the volume of the second high-pressure chamber.
[0037] Specifically, the second high-pressure chamber may be filled with high-pressure gas through the second needle valve, and the second high-pressure chamber may be filled with high-pressure gas equal to that of the second high-pressure chamber.
[0038] S5. Continue to charge the first high-pressure chamber with high-pressure gas until the explosion-proof plate breaks, so that the high-pressure gas in the second high-pressure chamber pushes the gas and smelting products in the first high-pressure chamber to be ejected quickly, and the smelting products are pulverized during the ejection process.
[0039] It is understandable that, in the process of preparing permanent magnets by sintering, the sintered product can be broken and powdered based on high-speed gas unloading, and the sintered product is the smelting product. The first high-pressure chamber is continuously charged with high-pressure gas, so that the explosion-proof disc of the first high-pressure chamber is shear-damaged. When the explosion-proof disc is broken, the high-pressure gas in the second high-pressure chamber can push the high-pressure gas and the smelting product in the first high-pressure chamber to be ejected quickly, and the smelting product is powdered during the ejection process.
[0040] The pulverization method of the smelting product provided in the embodiment of the present invention can separate the first high-pressure chamber and the second high-pressure chamber by a first sealing device; put a first preset amount of smelting product into the interior of the first high-pressure chamber, and seal the first high-pressure chamber by a second sealing device; wherein the second sealing device includes a flameproof disc and a sealing head; fill a second preset amount of high-pressure gas into the interior of the first high-pressure chamber so that the flameproof disc can withstand a preset pressure; wherein the preset pressure is less than the maximum pressure that the flameproof disc can withstand; fill a third preset amount of high-pressure gas into the interior of the second high-pressure chamber; wherein the third preset amount is equal to the volume of the second high-pressure chamber; continue to fill the first high-pressure chamber with high-pressure gas until the flameproof disc breaks, so that the high-pressure gas in the second high-pressure chamber pushes the gas and smelting product of the first high-pressure chamber to be ejected quickly, and the smelting product is pulverized during the ejection process. In this way, it is convenient to reduce the particles of the smelting product produced in the process of preparing NdFeB by sintering in a safe way.
[0041] In some embodiments, the high-pressure gas in the second high-pressure chamber pushes the gas and the smelted product in the first high-pressure chamber to be ejected quickly, and the smelted product is powdered during the ejection process, including:
[0042] The high-pressure gas in the second high-pressure chamber pushes the gas in the first high-pressure chamber and the preset material to be ejected quickly, and the smelted product is pulverized during the ejection process, so that the smelted product and the other materials are separated, and the separated smelted product is recovered; the gas pressure setting of the gas in the first high-pressure chamber should be sufficient to pulverize only the smelted product when pushing the preset material to be ejected, and the other materials will not be pulverized.
