The vacuum induction furnace according to the invention contains a hermetically sealable chamber (1), surrounded by an inductor (7), with a crucible (2) accommodated therein. The side surface of the crucible (2) is formed by cooled metal sections (10) which are separated in relation to one another by insulating intermediate layers (11). In the lower part of the crucible (2), a cooled bottom-pouring plate (3) is arranged, which is connected to a mechanism (6) for its perpendicular movement to and fro in relation to the crucible (2). The inner surface of the crucible (2) is made in stages with a diameter which decreases in the direction of the bottom-pouring plate (3). Such a design of the crucible (2) makes it possible to produce bars of different diameter in the same crucible (2).

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Vakuuminduktionsofen der im Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1 angegebenen Gattung.The invention relates to a vacuum induction furnace of the type specified in the preamble of claim 1.

Zum Erzeugen von metallischen Werkstoffen mit verbesserten Eigenschaften bietet die thermische Behandlung in Vakuum­induktionsöfen mit einem gekühlten Metallgespann verschie­dene Vorteile, weil z. B. keine Verunreinigungen aus der Futtermasse in die Schmelze gelangen und Schmelztemperatu­ren bis zu 3000 °K erreicht werden können. Die Schmelze kann durch elektromagnetische Felder eines Induktors in­tensiv durchmischt und damit in ihrer Zusammensetzung ver­gleichmäßigt werden. Ferner lassen sich Mehrstofflegierungen mit hohen Komponentenanteilen von bis zu 50 Masse-% erzeu­gen, deren Ausgangskomponenten sich in der Schmelztempera­ tur, Dichte und dem Dampfdruck stark unterscheiden. Bei der Vervollkommnung dieser Technologie werden in der Regel Tiegel verschiedener Durchmesser verlangt, was auf die Notwendigkeit, Barren mit einem nach der Verarbeitung ver­ringerten Durchmesser wiederzuverwenden, Edel- und Selten­komponenten der Legierungen einzusparen und auf Bedingungen für eine weitere Schmelzbehandlung der erzeugten Barren zurückzuführen ist.For the production of metallic materials with improved properties, the thermal treatment in vacuum induction furnaces with a cooled metal combination offers various advantages, because e.g. B. no contaminants from the feed mass get into the melt and melting temperatures up to 3000 ° K can be reached. The melt can be mixed intensively by electromagnetic fields of an inductor and thus its composition can be evened out. It is also possible to produce multi-component alloys with high component proportions of up to 50% by mass, the starting components of which can be found in the melting temperature structure, density and vapor pressure. In order to perfect this technology, crucibles of various diameters are usually required, which is due to the need to reuse ingots with a reduced diameter after processing, to save precious and rare components of the alloys and to conditions for further melt treatment of the ingots produced.

Es ist ein Vakuuminduktionsofen (L. L. Tir, A. P. Gubchenko "Induktsionnye plavilnye pechi dla protsessov povyshennoi tochnosti i chistoty" ("Induktionsschmelzöfen für Vorgänge erhöhter Präzision und Reinheit"), 1988, Verlag "Energoatomizdat" (Moskau), S. 76 bis 77, Fig. 45) bekannt, in dessen hermetisch abgeschlossener Kammer ein gekühlter Tiegel untergebracht ist. Die Seitenflächen bestehen aus vertikal angeordneten gekühlten Metallsektionen, die durch Isolierstoffzwischenlagen voneinander getrennt sind. Ferner ist ein gekühltes Gespann und ein die Kammer umschließender Induktor vorgesehen.It is a vacuum induction furnace (LL Tir, AP Gubchenko "Induktsionnye plavilnye pechi dla protsessov povyshennoi tochnosti i chistoty" ("Induction melting furnaces for processes of increased precision and purity"), 1988, Verlag "Energoatomizdat" (Moscow), pp. 76 to 77, Fig. 76 45) is known, in the hermetically sealed chamber of which a cooled crucible is accommodated. The side surfaces consist of vertically arranged, cooled metal sections, which are separated from one another by insulating layers. Furthermore, a cooled team and an inductor enclosing the chamber are provided.

In diesem Vakuuminduktionsofen kann aber nur ein nach dem Durchmesser beschränktes Barrensortiment erschmolzen werden, so daß für Barren anderer Abmessungen entweder die Kammer mit dem gekühlten Tiegel gegen eine andere Größe ausge­tauscht oder eine Zusatzmenge vom Umschmelzmetall einge­setzt werden muß, was beim Umschmelzen von Selten- oder Edelmetallen besonders unerwünscht ist.In this vacuum induction furnace, however, only a range of bars limited in diameter can be melted, so that for bars of other dimensions either the chamber with the cooled crucible can be exchanged for a different size or an additional amount of the remelting metal must be used, which occurs when remelting rare or precious metals is particularly undesirable.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Vakuum­induktionsofen zu schaffen, in dem Barren verschiedener Abmessungen im gleichen Tiegel ohne zusätzliche Maßnahmen erzeugt werden können, was den Anwendungsbereich des Ofens erweitert.The invention has for its object to provide a vacuum induction furnace in which bars of different dimensions in the same crucible without additional measures can be generated, which extends the scope of the furnace.

Diese Aufgabe wird bei einem Vakuuminduktionsofen, der eine hermetisch abgeschlossene Kammer mit einem darin unter­gebrachten gekühlten Tiegel, dessen Seitenfläche durch vertikal angeordnete gekühlte Metallsektionen gebildet ist, die voneinander durch Isolierstoffzwischenlagen ge­trennt sind, ein gekühltes Gespann, das mit einem Mechanis­mus für dessen hin- und hergehende Senkrechtbewegung bezüg­lich des Tiegels verbunden ist, und einen die hermetisch abgeschlossene Kammer umschließenden Induktor enthält, gemäß der Erfindung dadurch gelöst, daß der Innenraum des Tiegels stufenweise mit einem in Richtung des Gespanns abnehmenden Durchmesser ausgeführt ist.This object is achieved in a vacuum induction furnace, which has a hermetically sealed chamber with a cooled crucible accommodated therein, the side surface of which is formed by vertically arranged cooled metal sections, which are separated from one another by insulating intermediate layers, and which is cooled with a mechanism for its reciprocating Vertical movement is connected with respect to the crucible, and contains an inductor enclosing the hermetically sealed chamber, solved according to the invention in that the interior of the crucible is designed in stages with a decreasing diameter in the direction of the team.

Durch die Erfindung wird die Umstellung des Ofens auf Barren verschiedener Abmessungen und Durchmesser vereinfacht, weil das jeweils abgenutzte Gespann gegen ein Gespann mit den erforderlichen Abmessungen auf einfache Weise ausge­tauscht werden kann.The invention simplifies the conversion of the furnace to bars of different dimensions and diameters, because the pair of wears that are worn out can be exchanged in a simple manner for a team with the required dimensions.

Die Erfindung wird nachstehend an einem bevorzugten Aus­führungsbeispiel anhand der Zeichnung näher erläutert. Es zeigen:

  • Fig. 1 eine Gesamtansicht eines Vakuuminduktions­ofens im Längsschnitt;
  • Fig. 2 eine Draufsicht des Vakuuminduktionsofens, teilweise aufgebrochen.

Der Vakuuminduktionsofen enthält eine hermetisch abge­schlossene Kammer 1, in deren Innerem ein gekühlter Tiegel 2 untergebracht ist. Ein gekühltes Gespann 3 ist auf einem unteren Deckel 4 angeordnet und mit einer Stange 5 eines Mechanismus 6 zur Durchführung von senkrechten Hin- und Herbewegungen verbunden. Außen ist die Kammer 1 von einem Induktor 7 umgeben und oben durch einen Deckel 8 abgedeckt. In den Deckeln 4, 8 sind zur hermetischen Abdichtung der Kammer 1 Vakuumdichtungen 9 angeordnet. Die Innenfläche des Tiegels 2 ist stufenweise mit einem in Richtung des Gespanns 3 abnehmenden Durchmesser ausgeführt.The vacuum induction furnace contains a hermetically sealed chamber 1, in the interior of which a cooled crucible 2 is accommodated. A cooled team 3 is arranged on a lower cover 4 and connected to a rod 5 of a mechanism 6 for performing vertical reciprocating movements. The outside of the chamber 1 is surrounded by an inductor 7 and covered at the top by a cover 8. Vacuum seals 9 are arranged in the covers 4, 8 for hermetically sealing the chamber 1. The inner surface of the crucible 2 is designed in stages with a decreasing diameter in the direction of the team 3.

Die Seitenfläche des Tiegels 2 (Fig. 2) ist durch vertikal angeordnete gekühlte Metallsektionen 10 gebildet, die durch Isolierstoffzwischenlagen 11 voneinander getrennt sind. Am oberen Deckel 8 sind Fertigungseinrichtungen zur Durch­führung und Überwachung des Schmelzvorgangs, z. B. ein Dosiergerät 12 und ein Beobachtungsgerät 13 u. a., bei­spielsweise ein Plasmatron, Thermopaare (nicht gezeigt), angeordnet.The side surface of the crucible 2 (FIG. 2) is formed by vertically arranged cooled metal sections 10, which are separated from one another by insulating intermediate layers 11. On the upper cover 8 are manufacturing facilities for performing and monitoring the melting process, for. B. a metering device 12 and an observation device 13 u. a., for example a plasmatron, thermocouples (not shown), arranged.

Der erfindungsgemäße Vakuuminduktionsofen arbeitet wie folgt. Beim Erschmelzen eines Barrens erforderlichen Durch­messers wird an der Stange 5 des Mechanismus 6 ein Gespann 3 befestigt, dessen Durchmesser dem Durchmesser des Tiegels 2 entspricht, der zum Erschmelzen dieses Barrens notwendig ist. Dann wird auf das Gespann 3 ein Beschickungsgut auf­gelegt, das Gespann 3 wird mit Hilfe der Stange 5 in eine zugeordnete Stufe des Tiegels 2 eingeführt. Danach wird die Kammer 1 mit dem Deckel 8 hermetisch verschlossen, der auf den Vakuumdichtungen 9 angeordnet wird. Anschließend wird die hermetisch abgeschlossene Kammer 1 evakuiert und eine der Stufe des Tiegels 2 zugeordnete Teilspule des Induktors 7 auf Erhitzung und Schmelzung vom Beschickungs­gut geschaltet. Die Zugabe vom Beschickungsgut auf den Legierungszusätzen erfolgt über das Dosiergerät 12 (Fig. 2). Es werden sämtliche erforderlichen Arbeitsgänge für die Durchführung und Überwachung des Schmelzvorgangs ausge­führt, wozu von den am Deckel 8 angeordneten vorhandenen Fertigungseinrichtungen Gebrauch gemacht wird.The vacuum induction furnace according to the invention works as follows. When melting a billet required diameter, a team 3 is attached to the rod 5 of the mechanism 6, the diameter of which corresponds to the diameter of the crucible 2, which is necessary for melting this billet. Then a load is placed on the team 3, the team 3 is introduced with the help of the rod 5 in an assigned step of the crucible 2. The chamber 1 is then hermetically sealed with the cover 8, which is arranged on the vacuum seals 9. The hermetically sealed chamber 1 is then evacuated and a coil of the inductor 7 assigned to the stage of the crucible 2 is switched to heating and melting of the load. The feed material is added to the alloy additives via the metering device 12 (FIG. 2). All the necessary operations for carrying out and monitoring the melting process are carried out, for which use is made of the existing production facilities arranged on the cover 8.

Nach Abschluß des Schmelzvorgangs wird die Spule des In­duktors 7 abgeschaltet, und man läßt den erzeugten Barren auskristallisieren. Nach Erreichen einer bestimmten Tempe­ratur des Barrens wird der Ofen belüftet. Der Deckel 8 wird geöffnet, der erzeugte Barren wird auf dem Gespann 3 mit Hilfe des Mechanismus 5 in die obere Endstellung angehoben und herausgenommen. Danach wird wieder das vor­herige Gespann 3 oder ein Gespann 3 von anderem Durchmesser bereitgestellt, und der Schmelzvorgang eines weiteren Bar­rens wiederholt.After completion of the melting process, the coil of the inductor 7 is switched off, and the bars produced are allowed to crystallize out. After the bar has reached a certain temperature, the furnace is ventilated. The lid 8 is opened, the ingot produced is raised on the team 3 with the help of the mechanism 5 into the upper end position and removed. Then the previous team 3 or a team 3 of another diameter is again provided, and the melting process of another ingot is repeated.

Die stufenweise Ausführung der Innenfläche des Tiegels 2 gestattet es, die technologischen Funktionsfähigkeiten des Ofens zu erweitern, den Metall- und Materialaufwand geringer zu halten, sowie den Anwendungsbereich des Ofens auszudehnen.The gradual execution of the inner surface of the crucible 2 makes it possible to expand the technological functional capabilities of the furnace, to keep the metal and material expenditure lower, and to extend the field of application of the furnace.
