Definitions
- Our present invention relates to the manufacture of conductive sheet material and, more particularly, to a process and an apparatus for producing sheet-metal bodies such as plates, bands and strips which have low power losses and which may therefore be used economically for electric transducers (e.g. transformers), electromechanical machines (e.g. motors and generators) and the like.
- electric transducers e.g. transformers
- electromechanical machines e.g. motors and generators
- Conductive plates, bands and strips adapted to be used in the above-mentioned electric devices and in others wherein low power losses due to eddy-current effects are required, have been manufactured hitherto by processes in which the raw high-loss sheets and strips are finished by annealing and subsequent cold working to improve their electrical performance.
- the cold working generally involved the passing of the sheet material between the rollers of a conventional cold-rolling mill, usually under tension and in a repeated operation to realize the desired effect.
- These cold-rolling processes necessitated considerable deformation, often reducing the bulk of the sheets by about upon each pass between the rollers, in order to reduce the loss factor of the material to any satisfactory extent.
- the rollers utilized in these processes experienced substantial Wear and required frequent adjustment and/or replacement while the finished sheet was always of diminished thickness.
- Other known sheettreating processes for reducing power losses were equally unsatisfactory.
- Still another object of the present invention is to provide means for reducing the power losses of such sheets without permanently deforming them.
- metallic plates and strips having relatively high power losses may be treated to reduce these losses by a process in which each part of a sheet-metal body having the desired final thickness is alternately bent in opposite directions and thereafter straightened substantially without compression.
- the sheet may thus be passed through a corrugating device having a plurality of spaced-apart rollers alternatingly engaging the sheet on opposite sides thereof and extending transversely to the direction of travel of the sheet. ing configuration and thereafter drawn from the device as a flattened body.
- the finished material will then be found to have substantially reduced power losses and a thickness generally equal to that of the starting material.
- the sheet is, moreover, heat-treated or annealed during corrugation or subsequently thereto to complete and perpetuate the rearrangement of its molecular structure.
- the corrugating device is, according to a more specific feature of the invention, disposed adjacent an annealing furnace through which the sheet passes during or after its mechanical deformation.
- the rollers of the device are then advantageously provided with cooling means adapted to regulate the temperature of the sheet.
- the process according to the invention does not require frequent adjustment and replacement of the deforming rollers. a sheet pass through the same sequence of deformations. Sheets treated by our process, therefore, have reproducible power factors and other electrical and magnetic characteristics which are substantially uniform over their entire length and width. The effects of the rollers are cumulative up to a point, hence an increase in the number of rollers will oftenaiford greater improvement,
- a conventionally manufactured metal sheet or strip 1 with the usual high power losses emerges hot from a heating chamber 3a, advancing in the direction of arrowA between two sets of opposing rollers 2, 2 of a corrugating device 26 and thence passing through an annealing furnace 3b.
- anytwo rollers 2 and 2' which may be individually or jointly adjustable as indicated by the arrows C and C, is always greater 7 than the thickness of the sheet-metal body 1 so that the latter will not undergo any compression on its passage through the device 20.
- the rollers 2, 2' temporarily deform the sheet 1 into an undulating pattern which remains stationary as the sheet advances through the heating Zone 3a, 3b.
- the exact sheet temperature during deformation may be further controlled by passing a cooling (or heating) fluid through the rollers as is well known per se.
- the apparatus shown in the drawing may constitute one of the stages of a plant for the continuous manufacture of sheet-metal plates, strips and
- the heating chamber 3a may be constituted by the final hot-rolling stage from which the sheets emerge with substantially their design thickness.
- a process for reducing the electric power losses of a sheet-metal body comprising the steps of heating said body to ailelevated temperature close to the recrystalli zation temperature of the metal, bending the heated body in an undulating pattern Without substantial alteration of the dimensions thereof, straightening 'said body and annealing said body.
- f v a 3 A process for reducing the electric power losses of a sheetemetal body, comprising the steps of progressively advancing said body through a heating zone, successively transverse axes on opposite sides thereof without substan-:
