Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of riveting technology for ceramic matrix composite materials, and in particular to a riveting structure for ceramic matrix composite materials and metal materials. Background Technology
[0002] To improve the high-temperature resistance of military aircraft engines, existing technologies use ceramic matrix composites to prepare all-composite engine hot-end components. However, ceramic matrix composites inevitably need to be connected and overlapped with metal materials in engine systems. Since the coefficient of thermal expansion of metal materials is larger than that of ceramic matrix composites, the deformation of metal materials and ceramic matrix composites at high temperatures is not synchronized. Therefore, the connection structure between the two is prone to loosening under high temperatures, leading to damage to engine components. In addition, in periodic vibration environments, ceramic matrix composites made of multilayer carbon felt are also prone to delamination at bending points.
[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, Chinese invention patent CN105948825A discloses a ceramic composite layer for brazing and its manufacturing method. In this patent, a metallization layer is formed on the surface of a ceramic substrate, and a solder layer, prepared by a printing process and sintered, is formed on the metallization layer, allowing for a tight bond between the solder layer and the ceramic. While this connection method can achieve the connection between the metal material and the ceramic composite material, it still cannot reduce the difference in deformation between the metal material and the ceramic matrix composite material under high-temperature conditions. Furthermore, due to the vibration environment of the components, the weld layer and the carbon felt-laid ceramic matrix composite material may detach.
[0004] Chinese invention patent CN110293491A discloses a statically determinate bonding fixture and method for a ceramic-based composite cover and a metal insert ring. While the statically determinate bonding method in this patent can minimize process stress, deformation and cracking under severe vibration are still unavoidable. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a riveting structure for ceramic matrix composite materials and metal materials, which solves the problem of low connection strength between the two materials due to the large difference in deformation between ceramic matrix composite materials and metal materials under high temperature environments.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0007] A riveting structure for ceramic matrix composite material and metal material includes a ceramic matrix composite cylindrical component and a metal ring connecting component; the metal ring connecting component is sleeved on the ceramic matrix composite cylindrical component; a first reserved hole is opened on the ceramic matrix composite cylindrical component, a second reserved hole is opened on the metal ring connecting component, and the ceramic matrix composite cylindrical component and the metal ring connecting component are connected by rivets passing through the first reserved hole and the second reserved hole.
[0008] In this design, the metal ring connecting component is connected to the ceramic matrix composite cylindrical component by a sleeve, and the sleeve is reinforced by rivets to enhance the connection strength, ensuring a stable connection even in high-temperature or vibration environments. At the same time, the rivets also reinforce the ceramic matrix composite cylindrical component, preventing the ceramic matrix composite layer from separating in vibration environments.
[0009] Furthermore, several second reserved holes are provided, and these several second reserved holes are evenly distributed along the circumference of the metal ring connecting component.
[0010] Furthermore, a rectangular notch is provided between two adjacent second reserved holes on the metal ring connecting component;
[0011] The rectangular notch is open at the end near the metal ring connecting component's sleeve interface, and closed at the end away from the metal ring connecting component's sleeve interface.
[0012] In this design, several rectangular notches are made on the metal ring connecting component. When the metal ring connecting component deforms under high temperature, the rectangular notches can shrink their width to adapt to the deformation of the metal ring connecting component, thereby reducing the deformation of the metal ring connecting component relative to the ceramic matrix composite cylindrical component, and thus overcoming the defect of loose connection caused by the large difference in deformation between the two under high temperature.
[0013] Furthermore, a circular notch is machined at one end of the rectangular notch that is closed;
[0014] The radius of the circular notch is greater than the width of the rectangular notch.
[0015] In this design, when the radius of the circular notch is greater than the width of the rectangular notch, the deformation of the metal ring connecting component caused by high temperature is minimized, thus minimizing the impact on the connection strength between the ceramic matrix composite cylindrical component and the metal ring connecting component.
[0016] Furthermore, a high-temperature adhesive is applied between the contact surfaces of the ceramic matrix composite cylindrical component and the metal ring connecting component.
[0017] In this solution, a high-temperature adhesive is applied between the ceramic matrix composite cylindrical component and the metal ring connecting component. After the high-temperature adhesive solidifies, the stability of the connection structure is further improved.
[0018] Furthermore, the rivets are coated with high-temperature adhesive.
[0019] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0020] In the riveting structure of ceramic matrix composite material and metal material provided by this utility model, rivets are used to rivet the sleeved ceramic matrix composite cylindrical component and the metal ring connecting component, increasing their connection strength and preventing the separation of the ceramic matrix composite layer itself in a vibration environment. Several rectangular notches are machined on the metal ring connecting component, and circular notches are machined at the ends of the rectangular notches. The rectangular and circular notches can reduce the thermal deformation of the metal ring connecting component in a high-temperature environment through their own shrinkage deformation, ensuring that the connection between the ceramic matrix composite cylindrical component and the metal ring connecting component remains secure and preventing damage to the components.

[0028] like Figures 1-3As shown, this embodiment provides a riveting structure for a ceramic matrix composite material and a metal material. This riveting structure has high connection strength and can prevent loosening at the connection point caused by the large difference in deformation between the ceramic matrix composite material and the metal material under high temperature conditions. Simultaneously, the structure between the layers of the ceramic matrix composite material itself is reinforced to prevent detachment between the layers in a vibration environment. Specifically, it includes:
[0029] Ceramic matrix composite cylindrical component 1 and metal ring connecting component 2;
[0030] The metal ring connecting component 2 is sleeved on the ceramic matrix composite cylindrical component 1; the ceramic matrix composite cylindrical component 1 has a first reserved hole 101, and the metal ring connecting component 2 has a second reserved hole 203.

[0032] A rectangular notch 202 is provided between two adjacent second reserved holes 203 on the metal ring connecting component 2; the rectangular notch 202 is open at one end near the sleeve interface of the metal ring connecting component 2, and closed at the other end away from the sleeve interface of the metal ring connecting component 2; when the metal ring connecting component 2 deforms in a high-temperature environment, the rectangular notch 202 can adapt to the deformation of the metal ring connecting component 2 by shrinking its width, so as to reduce the deformation of the metal ring connecting component 2 relative to the ceramic matrix composite cylindrical component 1, thereby overcoming the defect of loose connection caused by the large difference in deformation between the two in a high-temperature environment.
[0033] A circular notch 201 is machined at one closed end of the rectangular notch 202; the radius of the circular notch 201 is greater than the width of the rectangular notch 202. When the radius of the circular notch 201 is greater than the width of the rectangular notch 202, the deformation caused by high temperature to the metal ring connecting component 2 is minimized, and thus the impact on the connection strength between the ceramic matrix composite cylindrical component 1 and the metal ring connecting component 2 is minimized.

[0038] High-temperature adhesive is applied to the contact surfaces of the ceramic matrix composite cylindrical component 1 and the metal ring connecting component 2 respectively. After the coating is completed, the metal ring connecting component 2 is fitted onto the ceramic matrix composite cylindrical component 1.
[0039] Then, apply a layer of high-temperature adhesive to the rivet 301. After the coating is completed, pass the rivet 301 through the first reserved hole 101 and the second reserved hole 203 to connect the ceramic matrix composite cylindrical component 1 and the metal ring connecting component 2.
