Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of metal soft magnetic powder cores, in particular to a powder grinding device used for grinding soft magnetic powder clusters. Background Art

[0002] Metal soft magnetic powder core is a composite material obtained by pressing metal soft magnetic powder and insulating material into shape using a press. It has excellent properties such as high saturation flux density, low coercive force, low magnetostriction coefficient and low loss. It is widely used in photovoltaic inverters, charging piles, automotive electronics and other fields, and can meet the needs of the development trend of high frequency, high power and miniaturization of electronic devices.

[0003] The metal soft magnetic powder core is obtained by pressing soft magnetic powder into shape. In order to reduce the unreasonable loss of the soft magnetic powder core during the molding process, the soft magnetic powder is often pre-insulated before pressing. That is, the surface of the powder is modified to form a surface insulation layer to avoid direct contact between magnetic powder particles, so that the insulation layer on the surface of the soft magnetic powder can effectively isolate the eddy current path between particles during the operation of the electrical device, greatly reducing the energy consumption of the electrical device and improving the energy efficiency of the electrical device.

[0004] In the process of insulating and coating the soft magnetic powder, it is inevitable that some powder clusters are formed due to stickiness and agglomeration. Powder clusters cannot be pressed and formed normally in the press. Therefore, after the soft magnetic powder is insulatingly coated, it is necessary to screen out the powder clusters that are too large. Especially in the production of low magnetic permeability metal soft magnetic powder cores, in order to ensure the lower magnetic permeability of the metal soft magnetic powder cores, the proportion of insulating material needs to be further increased during the soft magnetic powder coating, which makes it easier to form powder clusters, making this problem particularly prominent in the production of low magnetic permeability metal soft magnetic powder cores. In the prior art, the screened-out powder clusters are discarded as waste, which is not conducive to improving the utilization rate of materials in the production of metal soft magnetic powder cores and controlling production costs.

[0037] The grinding wheels 12 of each pair of the grinding structures 1 are symmetrically arranged at the same height in the grinding chamber 4. At least two pairs of the grinding wheels 12 of the grinding structures 1 are arranged from top to bottom in the grinding chamber 4, and the spacing between each pair of grinding wheels 12 decreases from top to bottom.

[0038] Each grinding wheel 12 is rotatably mounted on a grinding bracket 13 connected to the grinding chamber 4. A rotation driving machine is also fixedly mounted on the grinding bracket 13. The output end of the rotation driving machine is fixedly connected to the corresponding grinding wheel 12 to drive the grinding wheel 12 to rotate around its own axis.

[0039] Preferably, the grinding structure 1 is further provided with a grinding baffle 14 arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the grinding wheel 12;

[0040] A pair of grinding baffles 14 are arranged under the corresponding pair of grinding wheels 12 in an inclined state with a decreasing spacing from top to bottom, and a gap is left between the two.

[0041] The top of the powder grinding baffle 14 is rotatably mounted on the powder grinding bracket 13 through an elastic connector.

[0050] The setting of the elastic plate 57 firstly realizes the sealed connection between the material box 51 and the grinding cavity 4, avoiding the dust problem at the joint between the two. At the same time, it can also play a buffering and protective role in the process of the material box 51 vibrating up and down, preventing the material box 51 and the upper end surface of the grinding cavity 4 from frequent direct friction. Caused by structural damage;

[0051] In actual setting, the elastic plate 57 can be made of a rubber corrugated plate, and its edge is glued and fixed to the outer wall of the material box 51 and the edge of the feed port 41 by glue to form a closed structure; the glue can be Yihe YH-395 rubber special instant glue or Heyi HY-308 metal rubber glue.

[0052] Preferably, a controller is also provided;

[0053] The controller is in data communication with each linear drive machine 11 , the rotary drive machine and the vibration machine 55 .

[0054] In actual settings, the controller can be Mitsubishi MELSEC FX3u-64M PLC.

[0055] Preferably, the feed structure 5 is further provided with a pair of discharge baffles 53;

[0057] In actual settings, the swing of the discharge baffle 53 can be driven by the provided discharge baffle motor, and the self-locking function of the discharge baffle motor when it stops can replace the locking function of the locking structure; the aforementioned discharge baffle motor can be connected to the controller data at the same time and accept the control and coordination of the controller.

[0060] Preferably, it also includes a compressed air port 6 provided with a valve; the compressed air port is connected to the air compressor.

[0061] In actual production, after the grinding process is completed, the valve can be opened to allow the air compressor to spray compressed air into the grinding cavity 4 through the compressed air port 6 to remove the dust remaining and attached on the grinding structure 1 and in the grinding cavity 4.

[0062] Preferably, the bottom of the grinding chamber 4 is a truncated cone-shaped cylindrical structure with a decreasing diameter from top to bottom.

[0063] Preferably, the grinding chamber 4 is mounted and fixed to the base 2 via a fixing bracket 3 , and an openable and closable discharge cover is provided at the discharge port 42 .

[0064] When used specifically, the following processes are included:

Subsequently, the corresponding rotary drive machine is controlled to adjust the rotational speed of the pair of grinding wheels 12 to be consistent with the allowable rotational speed of the grinding wheels 12 at that level.

[0067] The third step is to start the vibrator 55 and control the vibrator 55 to output vibration with preset vibration parameters, and then swing and adjust a pair of discharge baffles 53 according to a preset allowable blanking speed, so that the pair of discharge baffles 53 swing together or spread apart until the opening of the material box outlet meets the requirement of the allowable blanking speed.

[0068] In the fourth step, the soft magnetic powder clusters in the material box 51 begin to fall from the material box outlet under the action of gravity and the vibration output of the vibrator 55, and pass through the various levels of grinding structures with decreasing pressure outlet sizes from top to bottom, and are correspondingly ground into powder particles with decreasing particle sizes step by step, and finally form soft magnetic powder that meets the pressing requirements of the press, and are discharged from the discharge port 42.
