Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for the production of vacuum interrupters or assemblies of vacuum interrupters with a Lötreasch.
  • a disadvantage of the method of the aforementioned type is that the soldering process chamber passes through the entire temperature and pressure range of the process from ambient conditions, ie room temperature and normal pressure, to high vacuum and soldering temperature. As a result of the loading of the soldering process chamber during atomizing with atmospheric pressure, the pumping down to a high vacuum takes a long time Period of time. Cooling the process chamber to ambient temperature with each batch change results in long reheat times until the process chamber is reheated to the soldering temperature.
  • Object of the present invention is to develop a method of the type mentioned, which allows for shorter process times a more flexible process management while improving the quality of the vacuum interrupters.
  • this object is achieved in a method of the type mentioned in the fact that in the method for producing vacuum interrupters with a Lötrearithmer
  • Assemblies of vacuum interrupters means in the sense of the invention, each compilation of components of a vacuum interrupter to which the inventive method is feasible, so a collection of components of a vacuum interrupter, which can be soldered under vacuum conditions, such as contacts and to be solubilized contact discs of a contact system of the vacuum interrupter.
  • the at least one preassembled vacuum interrupter or assembly is first introduced into a loading process chamber of the pre-treatment chamber and at low vacuum to a lying above the ambient temperature Temperature is heated, and then transported under high vacuum conditions in a heating process chamber of the pre-treatment chamber and heated under high vacuum to a temperature below the brazing temperature.
  • Such a method is advantageous because by heating to a temperature above the ambient temperature Ti under low vacuum already in a first step, a large part of the gases and precipitates contained in the preassembled vacuum stop tubes can be pumped or removed, so that the Total process time further reduced.
  • Such a method for the production of vacuum interrupters is advantageous because in each case at least one vacuum interrupter or assembly can be located in the process chamber assigned to the respective process step so that a clocked partial process management with several charges in different process chambers is simultaneously possible. Overall, this leads to a clearer reduction of the required process times. Furthermore, the energy costs are reduced by the different temperature and pressure differences for the respective process chambers because only a comparatively lower pressure or temperature difference has to be passed through for each chamber.
  • respective time intervals of a method step in the pretreatment chamber, the soldering process chamber, the cooling process chamber and the aeration chamber are the same length. As a result, the process time is further reduced because several batches of vacuum interrupters can be produced simultaneously in the device, because each time a change from one to the next process chamber another batch can be introduced into the device.
  • the invention further relates to a device for carrying out the method according to the invention described above
  • pretreatment chamber (2, 3) upstream of a soldering process chamber (4) for preheating and pre-evacuating at least one preassembled vacuum interrupter (7);
  • a cooling process chamber downstream of the soldering process chamber for cooling the vacuum interrupter to ambient temperature, and at least one transfer unit for transferring and transporting the vacuum interrupter under vacuum conditions.
  • the pretreatment chamber has a low-vacuum loading process chamber and a high-vacuum heating process chamber.
  • a design of the pretreatment chamber is advantageous because it achieves a further reduction of the process time by making it possible to carry out different steps in different process chambers.
  • the cooling process chamber is arranged downstream of a ventilation process chamber.
  • the loading process chamber and the aeration process chambers are formed by one and the same chamber, wherein the transfer unit is designed like a carousel.
  • Such a device is particularly advantageous because in a carousel-like design of the transfer unit, for example, four batches of vacuum interrupters can be present in parallel in the device, one in each process chamber, so that a continuous process management with the same process times for the individual process steps to reduce the total required process time leads.
  • the invention further relates to a vacuum interrupter or assembly made by a method of the invention as described above.
  • Such vacuum interrupters are advantageous because they are flexible and therefore inexpensive to produce with high quality due to low process times.
  • Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of the process flow of the method according to the invention.
  • Figure 2 is a schematic representation of an apparatus for performing the method according to the invention.
  • Figure 1 shows a schematic flow diagram in an XY representation, wherein the X-axis corresponds to the process time t and the Y-axis in the upper region of the prevailing in the respective process chamber temperature and the Y-axis in the lower part of the diagram of a logarithmic representation corresponds to the pressure prevailing in the respective process chamber pressure.
  • a loading process chamber 2 in a first time interval t.sub.i a loading process chamber 2 is pumped off to a pressure below the ambient pressure in the low-vacuum range and at the same time heated to a temperature T.sub.1 above the room temperature.
  • a receiving unit with at least one pre-assembled vacuum interrupter or assembly is transferred by means of a transfer unit in a Erdicarmungsrea- chamber under vacuum conditions in which within a time interval t 2 high vacuum conditions, ie pressures in the range ⁇ 10 ⁇ 5 mbar are generated and simultaneously a temperature T 2, which is below a brazing temperature T Lot in which liquefies the material used as the solder is heated.

  • the heating from room temperature to Tl in the loading process chamber is optional and can also be performed in the heating process chamber within the time interval t2.
  • the receiving unit with the at least one vacuum interrupter is in turn transferred to the soldering process chamber while maintaining the vacuum conditions, so that is heated during a time interval t3 in the soldering process chamber under high vacuum conditions to a soldering temperature T solder , which is selected in that a solder introduced in the preassembled vacuum interrupters or assemblies for the purpose of vacuum-tight soldering of the components liquefies with one another and thus forms the vacuum-tight soldering of the components with one another.
  • a cooling to a temperature below the soldering temperature T solder is effected within the soldering process chamber.
