Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for the production of grid mesh structures, in particular for the production of metallic grid mesh structures, and a device suitable therefor.
  • Reticular structures made of metal and other materials have a wide range of applications.
  • these structures can be used as low weight components, battery plates, electrochemical anodes and cathodes, filters for fluids, separators for fluid media, heat shields and for numerous other applications.
  • U.S. Patent 3,616,841 which is considered the closest prior art, discloses a method of making an insoluble foam material having a predetermined reticulated structure. This process involves the production of a self-supporting reticulated polyurethane foam; the production of a refractory mass by filling the cavities of the polyurethane foam with an aqueous gypsum suspension and this Sus pension binds; heating the refractory mass to a temperature of about 120 ° C (250 ° F) over a period of two hours; creating voids in the refractory molding material by raising the temperature of the refractory molding material to 535 to 815 ° C (1000 to 1500 ° F) to volatilize all of the foam; introducing a molten substance consisting of metals, metal alloys, ceramics or cerment into the refractory molding compound, the amount of the substance being sufficient to fill the cavities previously occupied by the reticulated structure; and solidifying the molten substance by lowering
  • the melting of the substance, which is introduced into the refractory molding compound, requires a great deal of equipment, particularly in the case of refractory metals, or cannot be achieved technologically.
  • the structure of the foam is determined by the connection of the foams to the wax plates.
  • the foam structure determines the technical parameters of the end product, so that the statistical fluctuation range must be as small as possible to ensure that the technical parameters of the end product are reached.
  • US 3,616,841 proposes various cooling methods, such as spraying with water or air.
  • the cooling effect is weakened considerably, however, since the molding compound hinders the heat flow changed.
  • the production of massive metal areas together with the grid structure is associated with the problem of very slow cooling.
  • the specified process steps hardly or not permit controlled solidification of the metal in order to obtain a void-free and fine-grained structure.
  • the slow solidification of the metal leads to long process times, which also stand in the way of automated production.
  • step (1) can be followed by modification of the surface of the foam pre-structure. This is preferably done by roughening or structuring the surface of the foam pre-structure.
  • the metal melt can be filled into the heat-resistant container (step (7)) by means of pressure support or vacuum support.
  • step (8) the grid structure obtained can be cleaned and, if necessary, modified by coating the grid structure, for example.
  • the method according to the invention offers several advantages. It is no longer necessary to glue the foam pre-structure to the pouring system and the pouring funnel. This significantly reduces the material and time used in the manufacture of the mold. Furthermore, the source of error associated with the uncontrollable gluing process is eliminated, since large areas of the foam pre-structure have no connection to the pouring system. Only the amount of refractory material needed to make the grid structure is required. The foam pre-structure protrudes from the fireproof molding compound after removal from the molding container. This makes it easy to check whether, after the foam pre-body has evaporated, all the webs and cells have a sufficiently good connection to the outside to ensure a complete cast.
  • the accessibility of the foam pre-structure from all sides has the advantage that the refractory mold can be heated without delay and that free access to the webs and cells of the foam pre-structure enables accelerated volatilization of the foam pre-structure. After volatilization, it is also very easy to check whether sufficient webs maintain the molten metal's access to the internal structure, the "negative form". Since the refractory material is preheated before it is placed in the refractory container, the molten metal solidifies from the outside This means that the temperature of the container and the refractory material can be controlled by cooling the molten metal without voids.
  • the refractory container has at least one opening for pouring the molten metal into the refractory material.
  • the interior of the container is preferably larger than the refractory, preheated material.
  • a freely selectable space is created between the container wall and the body made of refractory material, so that an arbitrarily shaped, massive wall can be cast onto the grid structure.
  • This wall is in direct contact with the container wall, so that the heat of solidification from the cast metal can be dissipated directly into the container wall and a fine-grained casting structure is created.
  • the webs of the grid structure are optimally connected to the solid wall.
  • the foundry mesh structures obtained by the process according to the invention using the refractory container can be integrated into castings which can be produced using various casting processes such as die casting, permanent mold casting, centrifugal casting, low pressure casting or counter pressure casting.
  • the Gittemetz structures themselves can also be cast using these methods.
  • the process enables the production of grid mesh structures of various fineness in terms of web thickness and cell size. Combinations of different cell sizes and web thicknesses in one body are also possible.
  • the method can be carried out continuously, since the wax plates required for bonding the foam pre-structure in the prior art methods are dispensed with.
  • Any material that has a sufficient number of pores can be used as the foam pre-structure.
  • This material is preferably polyurethane foam.
  • Gypsum is preferably used as the refractory material.
  • the molten metal consists of metals, metal alloys, ceramics or metal ceramics. However, any castable material can be used.
  • the metallic grid mesh structures obtained by the invention can be used, for example, as catalysts, for EMC shielding and in batteries.
  • a Zn / Cu alloy is used as the metal melt for the production of a catalyst for stabilizing the combustion of diesel fuel, with which the refractory material is filled.
  • Gittemetz structures obtained from the invention which consist of aluminum and which are coated with lead after step (8), can be used in batteries, for example.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé permettant de produire des structures quadrillées, notamment en métal, ainsi qu'un dispositif approprié à cet effet. L'invention vise à simplifier la production de structures quadrillées, de manière à permettre une fabrication automatique. A cet effet, l'invention vise à mettre au point un procédé qui permette de produire des structures quadrillées de grandes dimensions en grosse production. A cette fin, il est prévu les étapes suivantes : (a) introduire une structure préliminaire en mousse réticulée dans un récipient relevable ; (2) infiltrer cette structure avec une matière réfractaire ; (3) solidifier la matière ; (4) sortir la matière réfractaire solidifiée du récipient relevable ; (5) enlever la structure préliminaire en mousse ; (6) introduire le corps préchauffé obtenu dans un récipient résistant aux températures élevées ; (7) infiltrer le corps avec une matière métallique en fusion et (8) sortir le corps obtenu après solidification et enlever la matière réfractaire. Le dispositif comprend un récipient réfractaire, dont l'espace intérieur est plus grand que le corps réfractaire préchauffé.
