Description

  

  Verfahren zum Her stellen von     Gussstücken,        insbesondere    aus Leichtmetall  und     Leichtmetallegier        ungen.       Die Entgasung von Metallschmelzen  durch Einleiten von Schallschwingungen,  z. B. Ultraschallschwingungen, in die Schmelze  ist verschiedentlich vorgeschlagen worden.  Der Grund dafür, dass dieses     Verfahren    trotz  der bei     Laboratoriumsversuchen    erzielten  günstigen Ergebnisse bis heute noch wenig  Eingang in die     Giessereipragis    gefunden hat,  ist vor allem darin zu sehen, dass es erheb  liche Schwierigkeiten bereitet, die zur Her  stellung möglichst gasfreier     Gussstücke,    z. B.

    Blöcke und Platten von betriebsmässiger  Grösse notwendige Schallenergie in die  Schmelze einzuführen.  



  Diese     Schwierigkeiten    werden durch die  vorliegende Erfindung weitgehend beseitigt.  Zahlreiche Versuche haben nämlich     gezeigt,     dass eine     weitgehende        Entgasung    der Schmelze  schon bei verhältnismässig kurzem Einwirken  der Schwingungen eintritt, wenn es nur ge-         lingt,    eine genügend grosse Energie in die  Schmelze     einzuleiten.    Die Menge der     einleit-          baren    Energie ist aber wiederum abhängig  von dem     Querschnitt    der zu entgasenden  Schmelze.

   Sowohl beim Block- und Strang  guss wie auch beim     Formguss    hat nun die  Schmelze den kleinsten Querschnitt und da  mit die beste Möglichkeit für die Aufnahme  hoher Schwingungsenergie beim Durchlaufen  der Giessrinne, mittels derer die Schmelze  vom Giessgefäss in die Kokille eingefüllt  wird.  



  Demgemäss besteht die Erfindung darin,  dass die Schmelze während des Füllens der       Kokille    beim Durchlaufen der Giessrinne  durch die     Schallschwingungen    erregt wird.  Dabei kann die     Giessrinne    offen oder ge  schlossen, das heisst als Rohr, ausgebildet  sein. Der Grad der Entgasung kann durch  verschiedene Einstellung der Durchlaufge-           schwindigkeit    verändert und beispielsweise  so eingeregelt werden, dass praktisch eine  völlige Gasfreiheit erreicht wird.  



  Soll durch die Beschallung ausser der  Entgasung noch eine weitere Beeinflussung  der Schmelze, z. B. bei der     Erstarrung    die  Bildung feinkörniger Kristalle oder die Ver  meidung von     Seigerungen    erreicht werden,  ist es vorteilhaft, in die Schmelze auch inner  halb der Kokille noch solche Schwingungen  einzuleiten.  



  Das Verfahren gemäss Erfindung hat  sich besonders bei der Herstellung von     Guss-          stücken    aus Leichtmetall und     Leichtmetall-          legierungen    bewährt, jedoch ist es ohne w     ei-          teres    auch auf Schmelzen aus andern Werk-         stoffen    anwendbar, die im     geschmolzenen     Zustand zur Aufnahme von Gasen neigen  und deren Gasfreiheit erwünscht ist.



  A method for making castings, in particular made of light metal and light metal alloys. The degassing of molten metal by introducing sound vibrations, eg. B. ultrasonic vibrations, in the melt has been proposed variously. The reason that this method has found little entry into the foundry prizes, despite the favorable results achieved in laboratory tests, is mainly to be seen in the fact that it creates considerable difficulties, the position for the production of gas-free castings such. B.

    To introduce the necessary sound energy into the melt in blocks and plates of normal size.



  These difficulties are largely eliminated by the present invention. Numerous tests have shown that extensive degassing of the melt occurs even after a relatively short exposure to the vibrations, provided that sufficient energy is introduced into the melt. The amount of energy that can be introduced is in turn dependent on the cross section of the melt to be degassed.

   In ingot and continuous casting as well as in die casting, the melt now has the smallest cross-section and therefore the best possibility for absorbing high vibration energy when passing through the pouring channel, by means of which the melt is poured from the pouring vessel into the mold.



  Accordingly, the invention consists in that the melt is excited by the sound vibrations while the mold is being filled as it passes through the pouring channel. The pouring channel can be open or closed, ie designed as a pipe. The degree of degassing can be changed through various settings of the throughput speed and, for example, adjusted so that practically complete freedom from gas is achieved.



  If, in addition to degassing, the sonication should have a further influence on the melt, e.g. B. the formation of fine-grained crystals or the avoidance of segregation can be achieved during solidification, it is advantageous to initiate such vibrations into the melt even within the mold.



  The method according to the invention has proven itself particularly in the production of castings from light metal and light metal alloys, but it can also be used without further ado for melts made of other materials which tend to absorb gases in the molten state and whose absence of gas is desired.
