Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of tin powder forming cylinders with multiple forming channels. Background Art
[0002] The centrifugal atomization method for producing conventional tin powder is widely used in the industry. Its main mechanism is to fill an airtight large container with inert gas, generally controlling the oxygen content within 200 ppm; fix a high-speed rotating disk at the top of a high-speed motor, and the rotation speed of the disk is adjustable; flow (drop) the qualified molten liquid alloy through a pipeline onto the rotating disk. The centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the disk throws out the molten solder. Driven by the surface tension of the metal droplets, they are spheroidized into small droplets and cooled in an inert gas environment to form spherical metal particles, which gather at the bottom of the airtight container, and finally tin powder particles are obtained.
[0003] The matching problem between the rotation speed of the disk and the flow rate of the molten liquid alloy is a key process parameter. When the molten liquid alloy flows (drops) onto the rotating disk, the faster the disk rotates, the greater the centrifugal force, and the faster the molten liquid alloy is thrown out. However, too high a speed will cause the uncured liquid metal mass to hit the container wall and form tin cakes, which limits the production capacity of tin powder. Summary of the Invention

[0021] Reference Figure 1-2 , an embodiment of the present application is proposed, and the tin powder forming cylinder with multiple forming channels described in this embodiment includes:
[0022] A cylinder 10, wherein a feed port is disposed at the upper end of the cylinder 10, and an annular material distributor 20 is disposed at the feed port. The material distributor 20 is provided with a plurality of material supply channels 30 sequentially distributed along the circumference thereof, and the upper ends of the plurality of material supply channels 30 are used to communicate with the melting furnace;
[0023] A centrifugal turntable 40 is disposed in the cylinder 10 and coaxially distributed with the distributor 20. The centrifugal turntable 40 is provided with a plurality of forming channels 41, and the plurality of forming channels 41 are sequentially distributed along the circumference of the centrifugal turntable 40. One end of each of the forming channels 41 is respectively located below a feed channel 30, and the other end thereof extends along the other end of the centrifugal turntable 40 to the edge of the centrifugal turntable 40.
[0024] The driving device 50 is installed on the cylinder 10 and is in driving connection with the centrifugal turntable 40 . The driving device 50 is used to drive the centrifugal turntable 40 to rotate so that the multiple forming channels 41 pass through the multiple feeding channels 30 in sequence.
[0025] Refer to the attached Figure 1As shown, nozzles are respectively provided at the lower ends of the multiple feeding channels, and the molten metal in the furnace falls to the forming channel 41 of the centrifugal turntable 40 through the multiple feeding channels 30 and the nozzles. Since the driving device 50 drives the centrifugal turntable 40 to rotate, when the rotation speed of the centrifugal turntable 40 reaches a critical speed, the molten metal on the multiple forming channels 41 is thrown out under the action of centrifugation to form tin powder;
[0026] When the centrifugal turntable 40 of the present application rotates, the furnace can continuously drip molten liquid to the multiple molding channels 41 through the multiple feeding channels 30. Since the molten liquid in the furnace is molded after passing through the multiple feeding channels 30 and the molding channels 41, the tin powder molding cylinder with multiple molding channels can produce multiple tin powders at the same time, which is beneficial to improve production capacity.
[0027] The tin powder forming cylinder is also provided with an air inlet, which is connected to an inert gas supply device to prevent the tin powder from being oxidized in the cylinder 10. Those skilled in the art should know that after increasing the speed of the molten droplets being thrown out, the temperature in the cylinder 10 should be guaranteed so that the molten liquid can be quickly cooled to form tin powder, and the cooling speed is too slow to affect the roundness of the product.
[0028] The molding channel 41 described in the present application is an arc-shaped track, which is consistent with the trajectory of the molten droplets being thrown out of the centrifugal turntable 40 under the action of centrifugal force.
[0029] Preferably, the driving device 50 is disposed at the lower end of the cylinder 10 , and a power output end of the driving device 50 extends into the cylinder 10 and is drivingly connected to the lower end of the centrifugal turntable 40 .
[0030] As shown in the drawings, in this embodiment, the driving device 50 is a motor.
[0031] Furthermore, it also includes an air guide pipe 60 and an inert gas supply pipe 70, the air guide pipe 60 is arranged below the centrifugal turntable 40 and coaxially distributed therewith, the two ends of the air guide pipe 60 are respectively connected to the centrifugal turntable 40 and the inner wall of the cylinder 10, and a spiral blade is provided on the outer wall of the air guide pipe 60. One end of the inert gas supply pipe 70 is opposite to the spiral blade, and the other end thereof passes through the cylinder 10 and is used to be connected to the gas source of the inert gas.
[0032] The inert gas flow enters from the inert gas supply pipe 70. The gas flow rises along the spiral blades to the bottom of the centrifugal turntable 40, and then diffuses from the bottom of the centrifugal turntable 40 to the periphery of the cylinder body 10, so that the molten droplets thrown out by the centrifugal turntable 40 descend along with the nitrogen gas flow. The spiral blades 80 and the bottom of the centrifugal turntable 40 play a role in guiding the flow, thereby maintaining the stability of the gas flow in the cylinder body 10, avoiding the disturbance of the inert gas filled into the cylinder body 10 to the tin powder, and being beneficial to improving the roundness of the tin powder after the molten liquid thrown out is cooled; and the molten droplets thrown out by the centrifugal turntable 40 descend stably along with the nitrogen gas flow, avoiding the mutual collision between the molten droplets.
[0033] In the present application, the bottom surface of the centrifugal turntable 40 is a conical surface.
[0034] The gas flow diffuses from the conical surface to the periphery of the cylinder body 10 to generate an upward gas flow around the centrifugal turntable 40. The gas flow acts on the molten droplets, slowing down the falling speed of the molten droplets and also reducing the deformation of the molten droplets under the action of their own weight, which is beneficial to improving the roundness of the tin powder after the molten liquid thrown out is cooled.
[0035] Certainly, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make equivalent deformations or substitutions without departing from the spirit of the present utility model, and these equivalent deformations and substitutions are all included in the scope defined by the claims of this application.
