Description
BACKGROUND
Technical Field

The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of processing and molding of alumina ceramics, and specifically relates to an alumina ceramic integrated hot press molding machine.


Related Art

In ceramic processing, alumina is the most common material. The alumina ceramic is a ceramic material based on alumina (Al2O3) and is used in thick film integrated circuits. The alumina ceramic has better conductivity, mechanical strength and high temperature resistance. It should be noted that ultrasonic cleaning is required. The alumina ceramic is a kind of ceramics with a wide range of applications. Due to the superior performance, the alumina ceramic has become more and more widely used in the modern society to meet the needs of daily use and special performance.


The alumina ceramic is divided into high-purity type alumina ceramic and common alumina ceramic. The high-purity alumina ceramic is a ceramic material with the Al2O3 content of 99.9% or more. Because the sintering temperature of the high-purity alumina ceramic is as high as 1,650 to 1,990° C. and the transmission wavelength is 1 to 6 μm, the high-purity alumina ceramic is generally made into molten glass to replace a platinum crucible. Due to the light transmission and resistance to alkali metal corrosion, the high-purity alumina ceramic can be used for a sodium lamp. In the electronic industry, the high-purity alumina ceramic can be used for an integrated circuit substrate and a high-frequency insulating material. The common alumina ceramic can be divided into varieties such as 99 ceramic, 95 ceramic, 90 ceramic, and 85 ceramic according to different Al2O3 contents. Sometimes, the alumina ceramic with the Al2O3 content of 80% or 75% also belongs to the common alumina ceramic series. The 99 alumina ceramic material is used to make high-temperature crucibles, refractory furnace pipes and special wear-resistant materials, such as ceramic bearings, ceramic seals and water valves. The 95 alumina ceramic is mainly used for corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant components. The 85 alumina ceramic is often doped with some talc to improve the electrical performance and mechanical strength, and can be sealed with metals such as molybdenum, niobium and tantalum, and some are used for electrical vacuum devices.


The molding methods of alumina ceramic products include dry pressing, grouting, extrusion, cold isostatic pressing, injection, casting, hot pressing, hot isostatic pressing, and the like. In recent years, domestic and foreign molding technology methods such as pressure filtration molding, direct solidification injection molding, gel injection molding, centrifugal grouting molding and solid free molding have been developed. Products with different product shapes, sizes, complex models and precision require different molding methods.


1. Dry-pressing molding: The alumina ceramic dry-pressing molding technology is limited to an object with a simple shape, an inner wall thickness of more than 1 mm, and a length to diameter ratio of not more than 4:1. The molding method adopts uniaxial molding or bidirectional molding. Presses include a hydraulic press and a mechanical press, and can adopt a semi-automatic or fully-automatic molding manner. The maximum pressure of a press is 200 Mpa. The output can reach 15 to 50 pieces per minute. Since the stroke pressure of the hydraulic press is uniform, the height of the pressed part is different when the powder filling is different. The pressure applied by the mechanical press changes with the amount of powder filling, which will easily cause difference in size shrinkage after sintering and affect the product quality. Therefore, uniform distribution of powder particles during dry pressing is very important for mold filling. The accuracy of the filling amount has a great influence on the dimensional accuracy control of the manufactured alumina ceramic parts. The powder particles greater than 60 μm and between 60 meshes and 200 meshes can obtain the maximum free flow effect and the best pressure molding effect.


2. Grouting molding method: Grouting molding is the earliest molding method used for the alumina ceramic. Due to the use of plaster molds, the cost is low, and components with large sizes and complex shapes are easy to mold. The key to grouting molding is the preparation of alumina slurry. Usually, water is used as a flux medium, then a debonding agent and a binder are added, the air is exhausted after full grinding, and then, the product is poured into a plaster mold. Due to the absorption of moisture by the capillary of the plaster mold, the slurry solidifies in the mold. During hollow grouting, when the mold wall absorbs the slurry to the required thickness, the excess slurry needs to be poured out. In order to reduce the blank shrinkage, high-concentration slurry should be used as much as possible.


3. Hot casting molding: Hot casting molding is a relatively extensive production process for producing special ceramics. The basic principle is as follows: by means of the characteristics of paraffin molten by heating and solidified by cooling, non-plastic infertile ceramic powder and hot paraffin liquid are evenly mixed to form flowable slurry, and the slurry is injected into a metal mold under a certain pressure and molded and cooled; after the paraffin slurry is solidified, a molded blank is removed from the mold; the blank is properly trimmed, buried in an adsorbent and heated for paraffin removal; and then, the blank after paraffin removal is sintered to form a final product.


The inventors found that the most widely used traditional hot press molding equipment cannot meet special molding requirements. Due to the unreasonable design of an oil bath box heating device, the internal oil is heated unevenly, and the insulation effect on the slurry is not ideal. In addition, when a machine starts, it often requires a lot of preparation time in advance. The alumina powder in the slurry is unevenly distributed in the liquid paraffin, which often causes defects in the blank after paraffin removal. Because the temperature of the slurry is not easy to control, defects will be caused in the mold and the slurry outlet due to the temperature change.


The application (application number: CN201620655548.4) discloses a ceramic hot casting molding machine, including a hot casting machine body, a workbench, a casting mold and fixed support frames, wherein the workbench is mounted on the hot casting machine body, the casting mold is disposed on the workbench, a casting is disposed in the casting mold, the fixed support frames are disposed on the workbench and on both sides of the casting mold, a pressing device is mounted on the fixed support frames, two ends of the pressing device are connected with first air compression pipes, a storage container is disposed in the hot casting machine body, a feeding pipe is disposed in the storage container, an oil bath thermostat is disposed between the hot casting machine body and the storage container, a U-shaped heating pipe is disposed in the oil bath thermostat, and a second air compression pipe is disposed on one side of the hot casting machine body. In the present utility model, the U-shaped heating pipe is used, so that the slurry in the storage container can be heated evenly; and the pressing device is disposed, so that the pores generated during ceramic molding are reduced, the aesthetics of the ceramic is enhanced, the stability of the ceramic structure is improved, the materials are saved, and the utilization ratio of resources is improved.


This device has the defects that a temperature control device is not provided, so that the molding temperature cannot be controlled accurately, the concentration of the slurry will change, the casting is prone to defects, the temperature field distribution of a heating device is uneven, the temperature rise is slow, the preparation time is long, and the energy consumption is too high, which does not conform to the concept of green processing.


The application (application number: CN201610056298.7) discloses hot casting molding process integrated equipment, including a stirring preparation system, a pressure casting system and a casing. The stirring preparation system includes a stirring tank, a stirring machine and a lifter. A tank body of the stirring tank is divided into an internal layer and an external layer, a cavity is formed between the two layers of the tank body, the cavity is filled with thermally conductive silicone oil, a heater and a temperature sensor are disposed in the cavity, and a discharge hole is also formed at the bottom of the stirring tank. The pressure casting system includes a material liquid pipeline, a discharge port, a bracket and a pressing device. The material liquid pipeline is disposed between the discharge hole and the discharge port, the discharge port is disposed on an upper surface of the casing, the discharge port is also disposed on a central axis of the bracket, the bracket is disposed on the upper surface of the casing, and the pressing device is disposed at the center of a cross beam of the bracket and corresponds to the discharge port. By adopting the equipment of the present invention, the uniform temperature of the material liquid is ensured by means of the oil bath heating of the stirring tank and a heating belt on the material liquid pipeline, and the degree of automation of the equipment is relatively high.


Although this device can accurately control the temperature of the slurry, this device cannot accurately adjust and control the temperature of the slurry according to various forming molds. The stirring device cannot effectively stir the slurry deposited on the bottom, which affects the casting molding quality.


The application (application number: CN201711076088.5) discloses a hot press molding machine, including a handle, a motor case, an upper mold, a lower mold, a bracket, a hydraulic cylinder, a base, a pipeline and a switch box. The switch box is mounted on the left side of the motor case, the lower mold is mounted on the motor case, the bracket is mounted on the motor case, the upper mold is mounted on the bracket, the hydraulic cylinder is mounted on the bracket, the pipeline is connected with the motor case and the hydraulic cylinder, and the base is mounted below the motor case. The invention has the beneficial effects of reasonable design and simple structure. An insulating rubber layer is disposed on the handle, so that the probability of electric shock is greatly reduced, and the safety is improved.


Although this device solves the safety problem, this device has no improvements to the key factor (temperature) that affects hot press molding, and cannot adapt to various forming molds. The temperature field distribution of the heating device is unreasonable, which does not conform to the concept of green processing.


Based on the above factors and in combination with the current concept of green and low-carbon development and the full understanding of the hot casting molding process, the development of related devices is not perfect in structure, the temperature field distribution is generally unreasonable, and the molding temperature cannot be accurately controlled. Furthermore, uneven distribution of alumina powder in liquid paraffin easily causes the defect of poor casting molding quality.

Embodiment 1

The alumina ceramic integrated hot press molding machine disclosed by the present embodiment is further described below with reference to FIG. 1 to FIG. 35(b).


As shown in FIG. 1, an alumina ceramic integrated hot press molding machine is composed of five parts: a pressing device I, a hot pressing mold II, a hot pressing device III, a stirring device IV and a rack V. The pressing device I is located on a threaded support rod base V-03 on the rack V through chucks I-0101 on threaded connecting rods I-01. The pressing device I is fixedly connected to the rack V by rotating clamping nuts I-09. A piston pressing rod I-08 in a piston pressing rod stroke cavity I-0204 of a lifting frame I-02 directly faces the center of a slurry outlet III-0504. The mold II is located in a mold nest III-06 on the hot pressing device III. A slurry inlet II-0503 on a slurry inlet plate II-05 on the mold II is connected with a mold nest grouting port III-0601 in the mold nest III-06. A workbench positioning through hole III-0104 on a workbench III-01 of the hot pressing device III directly faces a bolt through hole V-04 on the rack V. The hot pressing device III is fixedly connected to the rack V by means of bolted connection. A motor IV-11 in the stirring device IV is fixedly connected to a motor support V-01 on the rack V by means of bolted connection. An impeller IV-01 and a transmission shaft IV-09 are fixedly connected to the internal base of a slurry bucket III-17 through a gland IV-08. The motor drives the impeller to rotate through belt transmission.


As shown in FIG. 2, FIG. 2(a), FIG. 2(b) and FIG. 3, the pressing device I is composed of threaded connecting rods I-01, a lifting frame I-02, a flange surface end cover sealing ring I-03, a flange surface end cover I-04, flange surface end cover positioning bolts I-05, flange surface end cover tightening nuts I-06, a common flat washer I-07, a piston pressing rod I-08, clamping nuts I-09, positioning nuts I-10, and a return spring I-11. The piston pressing rod I-08 is located in the piston pressing rod stroke cavity I-0204 inside the lifting frame I-02. The return spring I-11 is disposed below the piston pressing rod I-08. The upper end of an opening of the piston pressing rod stroke cavity I-0204 is provided with the flange surface end cover sealing ring I-03 and the flange surface end cover I-04. The flange surface end cover I-04 is fixedly connected to the lifting frame I-02 through the flange surface end cover tightening nuts I-06, the flange surface end cover positioning bolts I-05 and the common flat washer I-07.

A raw blank obtained by hot casting molding needs to be calcined to obtain a product. There is shrinkage during dry burning, and there is still a certain finish allowance for processing, so the size of a mold needs to be larger than the size required by the product. Assuming that the measured size of the raw blank in a certain direction is a, the size of the calcined product is b, the finish allowance is Δ (when no processing is required, Δ=0), and the shrinkage rate is represented by ε,

The specific working processes of this solution are as follows:


First, an assembled mold is placed in the mold nest III-06, the positioning nuts I-10 on the threaded connecting rods I-01 are manually adjusted, the lifting frame I-02 is adjusted to a suitable height to ensure that the indenter of the piston pressing rod I-08 in the piston pressing rod stroke cavity I-0204 is about 3 cm away from the mold, and then, the clamping nuts I-09 are rotated to fix the lifting frame I-02. Subsequently, the motor IV-12 starts to drive the impeller IV-01 inside the slurry bucket III-17 to rotate, so as to achieve a stirring effect on the slurry; simultaneously, the electric heating device III-16 is started through the temperature control box. According to the temperature fed back on the temperature control box by the oil bath box temperature thermocouple III-09 and the temperature requirement of hot casting molding of the slurry inside the slurry bucket III-17, the heating power of the electric heating device III-16 is adjusted and controlled in real time. Then, the pedal on the rack V is stepped on, the air valve is turned on, and high-pressure air is divided into two paths, wherein one path of high-pressure air enters the piston pressing rod stroke cavity I-0204 through the high-pressure air pipe threaded joint I-0402 on the flange surface end cover I-04, so as to push the piston pressing rod I-08 to move downward to tightly press the mold II, and the other path of high-pressure air enters the slurry bucket III-17 through the hand hole end cover air tap joint III-1201 on the hand hole end cover III-12. The slurry flows into the mold cavity through the grouting pipe III-18. According to the blank molding quality and the temperature fed back on the temperature control box by the thermocouple III-1803 on the grouting pipe III-18, the working power of the slurry outlet electric heating device is adjusted and controlled in time. By observing the molding condition of the mold, the pedal is loosened, the air valve is turned off, the piston pressing rod I-08 moves upward under the action of the return spring I-11, the pressure of the slurry bucket III-17 is released, the mold is taken out and disassembled, a pouring gate is cut, and a blank is taken out; after the mold is cleaned, cooled and dried, the mold assembly is completed; and then, the above processes are repeated.
