Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for producing a cold-melting crucible for melting small amounts of metal in suspension, which consists of an upper crucible forming the crucible trough by appropriately shaped wall segments and a base part with the distribution lines for the cooling system cooling channels run through slots which are separated from one another and into which the supply lines for the coolant are introduced from below.
  • the invention further relates to a cold-melting crucible according to the preamble of claim 2.
  • Cold melting crucibles are used to produce very pure metal samples and are used in particular as melting furnaces for growing single crystals.
  • the low contamination of metals melted in cold-melting crucibles is due to the fact that due to strong cooling of the crucible wall and by generating a magnetic field by means of high-frequency induction coils, the metal body, which was initially solid and then melted, is kept freely suspended in a stable position in the melting chamber (compare DE-PS 5 18 499; laboratory Methods, 1963, pages 301 ff., Metals Research-Advance Information, HCC 50 Cold Crucible).
  • the aim is to divide the crucible wall into as many segments as possible.
  • a cold-melting crucible of this type is known from DE-OS 21 00 378.
  • the manufacturing process for this crucible is very complex because the crucible is made from a solid material by drilling and cutting the slots, usually by means of spark erosion.
  • a cold-melting crucible of the type mentioned is also known from DE-PS 27 17 459.
  • the production method for this crucible is that it is composed of annular metal disks with radial slots, the metal disks being soldered to one another and to a base plate for the cold-melting crucible. This method of production is also relatively complex.
  • the object of the invention is also a repair-friendly and user-friendly cold melting crucible.
  • the individual wall segments are produced from a solid material by means of quick and simple working processes, such as milling.
  • a larger starting workpiece for example a cylindrical solid material with a larger diameter, is assumed.
  • other manufacturing processes such as casting processes, can also be used.
  • the individual wall segments are connected by soldering to the discharge pipes for the coolant that protrude from the base part. Any necessary adjustment is easily possible by bending the cooling lines.
  • connection between the individual wall segment and the cooling line is expediently made by soft soldering. As a result, a single wall segment for repairing the crucible can be easily removed.
  • the crucible is easy and inexpensive to repair, since individual wall segments can be easily removed and replaced with new ones if necessary.
  • the compact design of the upper part enclosing the crucible trough enables a more effective coupling to the HF magnetic field than is the case with crucibles the known design initially mentioned is the case.
  • the magnetic field can be concentrated on the upper part, which leads to an energy gain of up to 30%.
  • the cold-melting crucible has an upper part, which consists of a multiplicity of wall segments 1, and a base part 2, which flows downwards with a flange 3 and the supply and discharge lines for the coolant contains.
  • the base part also has a further flange 4 for receiving the pressure vessel - which is not shown in the drawing.
  • the wall segments which are separated by a maximum gap of 0.5 mm, are shaped in such a way that the melting chamber optimally matches the melting conditions is adjusted.
  • Cooling channels 7 run in the segments, which are guided along the inner surface of the melting chamber in such a way that sufficient cooling of the crucible-shaped crucible wall on the bottom is achieved.
  • the coolant lines 9 and 9a form the mechanical connection between the upper part consisting of the wall segments 1 and the base part 2. These are hard-soldered to the base part, but soft-soldered to the respective wall segment, so that the connection can be easily released in the event of a repair.
  • the coolant lines 9 are connected to the derivative 9 '.
