【産業上の利用分野】[Industrial application]

本考案は超電導線の製造装置に係り、特に金属シース法によるBi系の酸化物 超電導線を製造する装置の改良に関する。 The present invention relates to an apparatus for manufacturing a superconducting wire, and more particularly to improvement of an apparatus for manufacturing a Bi-based oxide superconducting wire by a metal sheath method.

【従来の技術】[Prior Art]

Bi系(Bi−Sr−Ca−Cu−O系)の超電導体は、その臨界温度(Tc )が80〜110Kと液体窒素温度以上の値を有し、安定性および加工性に優れ ることから酸化物超電導体の実用材料として期待されており、また、板状組織を 有するため、機械的な圧縮加工により結晶の配向性が向上し、高い臨界電流密度 (Jc)が得られるという特徴がある。 Since a Bi-based (Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O) superconductor has a critical temperature (Tc) of 80 to 110 K and a liquid nitrogen temperature or higher, it is excellent in stability and workability. It is expected as a practical material for oxide superconductors, and it has a plate-like structure, so it has the characteristics that the crystal orientation is improved by mechanical compression processing and a high critical current density (Jc) can be obtained. ..

【0003】 線材を製造するために、現在種々の方法が検討されているが、その代表的な方 法の一つとして金属シース法が知られている。この方法は原料粉末を金属管中に 充填し、これに線引加工や圧延加工等の減面加工を施した後、焼結することによ り内部の原料粉末を超電導体に成長させて超電導線を製造するものである。 この方法は、金属管で被覆されているために非常に加工が容易で、長尺の線材 の製造に適しており、特にBi系の超電導体に対しては、上記の減面加工により 結晶面が同方向に揃い、高いJcを有する線材が得られるため適した方法である と言える。Various methods are currently being studied for manufacturing wire rods, and the metal sheath method is known as one of the typical methods. In this method, the raw material powder is filled in a metal tube, subjected to surface-reduction processing such as wire drawing and rolling, and then sintered to grow the raw material powder inside to a superconductor, thereby superconducting. It is for producing wires. Since this method is very easy to work because it is covered with a metal tube, it is suitable for the production of long wire rods. Especially for Bi-based superconductors, the crystal surface reduction by the above-mentioned surface reduction processing Can be said to be a suitable method because wires having a high Jc can be obtained.

【考案が解決しようとする課題】[Problems to be solved by the device]

上記のように、Bi系の超電導体のJcを向上させるためには、機械的な圧縮 加工を加える必要があるが、従来はこの加工を熱処理時に一軸プレスで行ってい るため、長さが数cmのものしか加工できず、長尺の線材を製造するには適さな いという問題があった。 As described above, in order to improve the Jc of the Bi-based superconductor, it is necessary to add mechanical compression processing, but conventionally, this processing is performed by uniaxial pressing during heat treatment, so the length is several There is a problem that it is not suitable for manufacturing long wire rods because it can process only those with a diameter of cm.

【0005】 本考案は上記の問題を解決するためになされたもので、冷間圧延加工により連 続的に圧縮応力を加えて、高いJc値を有する長尺のBi系の酸化物超電導線を 製造することのできる装置を提供することをその目的とする。The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and continuously applies compressive stress by cold rolling to form a long Bi-based oxide superconducting wire having a high Jc value. The object is to provide a device that can be manufactured.

【課題を解決するための手段】[Means for Solving the Problems]

上記目的を達成するために、本考案の酸化物超電導線の製造装置は、金属管中 にBi系超電導体の原料粉末を充填して所定の形状に成形したテープ1を巻回し た送り出し装置2および巻き取り装置3と、前記金属管を形成する材料より大き い硬度を有する金属テープ4,5を巻回した送り出し装置6,7および巻き取り 装置8,9と、前記テープ1の両面に前記金属テープ4,5を重ね合わせて走行 させるためのガイドローラ10,11と、このガイドローラ間に配置された冷間 圧延機12とを備えたものである。 In order to achieve the above object, an apparatus for producing an oxide superconducting wire of the present invention is a delivery apparatus 2 in which a metal tube is filled with a raw material powder of a Bi-based superconductor and a tape 1 formed into a predetermined shape is wound. And a winding device 3, feeding devices 6 and 7 and winding devices 8 and 9 in which metal tapes 4 and 5 having a hardness higher than that of the material forming the metal tube are wound, and both sides of the tape 1 are It is provided with guide rollers 10 and 11 for overlapping and running the metal tapes 4 and 5 and a cold rolling mill 12 arranged between the guide rollers.

【0007】 本考案におけるテープ1は、金属管中に原料粉末を充填して所定の形状に成形 したものであるが、これは例えば、超電導体を構成する元素を一以上含む酸化物 、炭酸塩、硝酸塩等の粉末を(Bi+Pb):Sr:Ca:Ca=2:2:2: 3の概略モル比からなる組成に配合した混合粉末や、この組成に配合した仮焼粉 末を、高温で内部の超電導化合物と反応せず、加工性の良好なAg等の金属管中 に充填してテープ状に成形したものが用いられる。The tape 1 in the present invention is obtained by filling a metal tube with raw material powder and molding it into a predetermined shape. For example, this is an oxide or carbonate containing one or more elements constituting a superconductor. , Nitrates and other powders were mixed in a composition having an approximate molar ratio of (Bi + Pb): Sr: Ca: Ca = 2: 2: 2: 3, and a calcined powder mixed in this composition at high temperature. A metal tube that does not react with the superconducting compound inside and has good workability and is filled into a metal tube such as Ag and formed into a tape shape is used.

【0008】 このテープ1は、予め熱処理を施して送り出し装置2に巻回し、冷間圧延機1 2を介して巻き取り装置3で巻き取った後、再度熱処理を施すことにより、より 超電導特性を向上させることができる。この時の熱処理は、820〜850℃で 50〜200時間の条件で行うことが好ましい、この条件では(2223)相が 優先的に成長し、850℃を越えると(2212)相が生成する。The tape 1 is heat-treated in advance and wound on the feeding device 2, wound on the winding device 3 via the cold rolling mill 12, and then heat-treated again to obtain a more superconducting property. Can be improved. The heat treatment at this time is preferably performed under the condition of 820 to 850 ° C. for 50 to 200 hours. Under this condition, the (2223) phase preferentially grows, and when the temperature exceeds 850 ° C., the (2212) phase is formed.

【0009】 上記のガイドローラ10,11間でテープ1の両面に金属テープ4,5が重ね 合わせられて、冷間圧延機12で圧延加工が施されるが、金属テープ4,5とし ては、金属管を形成する材料より大きい硬度を有するステンレススチールやハス テロイ等の冷間圧延加工時に塑性変形せずに、かつテープ1と圧着しない材料が 用いられる。この金属テープ4,5の厚さは、テープ1の厚さの1〜5倍とする ことが好ましい。これにより、冷間圧延加工時の圧縮応力以外の剪断応力等を金 属テープ4,5に吸収することができ、テープ1に必要な圧力を加えることがで きる。金属テープ4,5の厚さがテープ1の厚さの1倍未満であると、圧縮応力 以外の剪断応力等がテープ1に加わり特性が低下し、一方、5倍を越えると十分 な圧縮効果が得られない。The metal tapes 4, 5 are superposed on both sides of the tape 1 between the guide rollers 10, 11 and rolled by the cold rolling mill 12. A material such as stainless steel or Hastelloy having a hardness higher than that of the material forming the metal tube, which does not plastically deform during cold rolling and is not pressure-bonded to the tape 1, is used. The thickness of the metal tapes 4 and 5 is preferably 1 to 5 times the thickness of the tape 1. As a result, the shear stress other than the compressive stress during cold rolling can be absorbed by the metal tapes 4 and 5, and the tape 1 can be applied with a necessary pressure. If the thickness of the metal tapes 4 and 5 is less than 1 time the thickness of the tape 1, shear stress other than compressive stress is applied to the tape 1 and the characteristics deteriorate, while if it exceeds 5 times, a sufficient compression effect is obtained. Can't get

【0010】 また、冷間圧延機12での圧下率が大きくなると、テープ1の伸びが大きくな って十分な圧縮効果が得られないため、圧下率を20%以下で冷間圧延加工する ことが好ましい。 この冷間圧延加工時の線速は、0.1〜5m/minの範囲が好ましく、線速 が0.1m/min未満では圧縮力が十分にテープ状線材に伝わらず、また線速 が5m/minを越えると、テープ1と金属テープ4,5が同時に圧延ロールに 咬み込まれるため蛇行して均一な加工ができず、その結果不均質な部分を生じ易 くなる。Further, if the reduction ratio in the cold rolling mill 12 becomes large, the elongation of the tape 1 becomes large and a sufficient compression effect cannot be obtained. Therefore, cold rolling should be performed at a reduction ratio of 20% or less. Is preferred. The linear velocity during this cold rolling is preferably in the range of 0.1 to 5 m / min. If the linear velocity is less than 0.1 m / min, the compressive force is not sufficiently transmitted to the tape-shaped wire rod and the linear velocity is 5 m. If it exceeds / min, the tape 1 and the metal tapes 4 and 5 are simultaneously bitten by the rolling rolls, and meandering cannot be performed uniformly, and as a result, an inhomogeneous portion is likely to occur.

【0011】 上記のテープ1と金属テープ4,5とは圧延時にスリップを生じない用に制御 することが望ましい。スリップが起こると、集中荷重を生じテープ1に欠陥が導 入され特性が低下する。It is desirable to control the tape 1 and the metal tapes 4 and 5 so that slips do not occur during rolling. When the slip occurs, a concentrated load is generated and a defect is introduced into the tape 1 to deteriorate the characteristics.

【作用】[Action]

本考案の装置においては、原料粉末を充填して所定の形状に成形したテープ1 を金属テープ4,5を介して冷間圧延機12で連続的に、かつ実質的に一軸方向 の圧縮力を加えることができるため、結晶配向性の優れたBi系の超電導線を製 造することができる。 In the apparatus of the present invention, the tape 1 formed by filling the raw material powder into a predetermined shape is continuously and substantially uniaxially compressed by the cold rolling mill 12 via the metal tapes 4 and 5. Since it can be added, a Bi-based superconducting wire with excellent crystal orientation can be manufactured.

The running speeds of the tape 1 ′ and the metal tapes 4 ′ and 5 ′ that have passed through the cold rolling mill 12 are detected by the detectors 13, 14 and 15, and the detection signals are input to the controller 16.

【0016】 制御器16は、この検出信号に基き、巻き取り装置3,8,9の駆動部17, 18,19へ制御信号を出力してテープ1´および金属テープ4´,5´を同一 の走行速度に制御する。 具体例 Bi23 、PbO、SrCO3 、CaCO3 およびCuOの各粉末をBi: Pb:Sr:Ca:Cu=1.85:0.25:2.10:2.00:3.00 の比率に秤量して十分に混合した後、固相反応法により製造した仮焼粉を外径φ 7mmの銀パイプ中に充填した後、冷間で線引加工および圧延加工を施して厚さ 0.15mmのテープに成形して、840℃で50時間の熱処理を施した。Based on this detection signal, the controller 16 outputs a control signal to the drive units 17, 18, 19 of the winding devices 3, 8, 9 to make the tape 1'and the metal tapes 4 ', 5'identical. Control to the traveling speed of. Specific examples Bi 2 O 3 , PbO, SrCO 3 , CaCO 3 and CuO powders were prepared by using Bi: Pb: Sr: Ca: Cu = 1.85: 0.25: 2.10: 2.00: 3.00. After being weighed to a ratio and thoroughly mixed, the calcined powder produced by the solid-phase reaction method was filled into a silver pipe having an outer diameter of φ7 mm, and then cold drawn and rolled to give a thickness of 0. The tape was molded into a 0.15 mm tape and heat-treated at 840 ° C. for 50 hours.

【0017】 次いでこのテープを送り出し装置2に巻回するとともに、送り出し装置6,7 に厚さ0.5mmのSUS430テープを巻回して、これらをガイドローラ10 ,11間に重ね合せて走行させ、冷間圧延機12により圧下率10%、圧延速度 0.5m/minで圧延した。 このようにして得られた長さ20mのテープに、さらに840℃で50時間の 熱処理を施して超電導テープを製造した。この超電導テープのJc(77K)を 測定した結果、1.8×104 A/cm2 の値を示した。Next, the tape is wound around the feeding device 2, and a SUS430 tape having a thickness of 0.5 mm is wound around the feeding devices 6 and 7, and the SUS430 tape is overlapped between the guide rollers 10 and 11 to run.
