Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ceramic core manufacturing and production, in particular to a particle size control device for a ceramic core mineralizer. Background Art
[0002] As the performance of aircraft engines continues to improve, the turbine blades located in key positions are mostly hollow structures in order to withstand higher temperatures and more harsh operating environments; and ceramic cores are an indispensable link in forming complex cavities of hollow blades. The addition of an appropriate amount of mineralizer can reduce the sintering temperature and sintering time of the core, while maintaining or improving the comprehensive performance of the ceramic core. The added mineralizer interacts with the matrix material to activate the lattice and generate a solid solution; or the mineralizer is transformed into a liquid phase to bond the matrix material at the sintering temperature; or the matrix material is prevented from undergoing polycrystalline transformation, which is beneficial to sintering. Zircon powder is one of the commonly used mineralizers. Its advantage is that the melting point of zircon powder is as high as 2500°C, which inhibits the viscous flow of quartz glass under high temperature conditions. In addition, Zr 4 + It does not affect the devitrification process of quartz glass. In the early stage of sintering, a large number of cristobalite crystals can be formed on the core to resist the creep phase of quartz glass, which further improves the high temperature deformation resistance of the ceramic core.
[0003] After the existing mineralizer material is calcined at high temperature, some impurity elements in the mineralizer are removed, thereby affecting the sintering process of the ceramic core, so that it can fully react with the matrix material to form a stable solid solution; however, the calcined mineralizer is easy to agglomerate, and the particle size of the mineralizer processed by the traditional crushing and grinding method is uncontrollable, and it cannot be well matched with the matrix material, which also affects the mutual bonding with the matrix material at the sintering temperature of the ceramic core; ultimately resulting in defects such as cracks, low strength, and poor resistance to high-temperature deformation after the ceramic core is sintered. To this end, the present application proposes a particle size control device for a ceramic core mineralizer to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

Multiple layers of sieve plates 82 are arranged in the outer shell 81 from top to bottom. Specifically, the sieve plates 82 are arranged in two layers, and the mesh size of the sieve plates 82 gradually increases from top to bottom. The sieve plates 82 are detachably connected to the outer shell 81, which is convenient for taking materials. A drain port 83 is arranged at the bottom of the outer shell 81. The outer diameter of the outer shell 81 is consistent with that of the mixing drum 3 and the outer shell 81 is detachably connected to the mixing drum 3.
