Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for treating workpieces with a liquid, in particular for cleaning metallic workpieces for a heat treatment following cleaning, and a device for carrying out the method.
  • washing in particular for cleaning and / or rinsing metallic workpieces
  • This includes, for example, vacuum heat treatment, push-through, roller hearth, vertical retort or multi-purpose chamber furnace systems in which bright heat treatments,
  • Various annealing processes and hardening processes as well as diffusion processes such as nitriding, nitro carburizing, carbonitriding and carburizing can be carried out.
  • chlorinated hydrocarbons e.g. tetrachlorethylene (Per) or trichlorethylene (Tri) were used in the past to clean metallic workpieces. These were ideal cleaning agents, especially for removing greases and pigment dirt, the environmental impact of which but were only known and taken into account at a later date.
  • CHC chlorinated hydrocarbons
  • tetrachlorethylene and trichlorethylene especially tetrachlorethylene and trichlorethylene
  • Trichloroethene (tri) is now suspected of causing cancer, so that this cleaning agent has practically been withdrawn from circulation in Europe.
  • the types of contamination that occur on metallic workpieces are varied.
  • these contaminants can consist of cooling lubricants, greases, lapping pastes and pigments, or of hardening oils, dusts and metal chips.
  • substances such as nitrogen and / or carbon penetrate from the outside of the workpiece into the outer layers of the metallic workpiece via diffusion processes.
  • a clean surface is also essential for vacuum heat treatments, bright annealing processes, coatings or the like.
  • Such water-soluble cleaning agents for example highly wash-active, mostly surfactant-containing substances, have a reduced solubility for fats compared to chlorinated hydrocarbons (CHC), so that the cleaning process is supported by a relative movement and very highly concentrated solutions of these agents must be used and the cleaning process by a Relative movement between the workpiece to be cleaned and the cleaning liquid must be supported.
  • CHC chlorinated hydrocarbons
  • the relative movement between the workpiece and the cleaning liquid is achieved in that the workpieces are sprayed by means of swiveling arms, with a high exit velocity of the treatment liquid.
  • the workpieces are sprayed with the treatment liquid and the cleaning effect is a combination of a mechanical detachment of the dirt particles and a chemical action.
  • the emulsification of the fats and oils, caused by high discharge speeds, has a disadvantageous effect on the bath condition.
  • the metallic workpieces were removed from the bath or the spraying device and then dried by means of heated circulating air by evaporation with the aid of the inherent heat of the parts or by blowing off or by means of circulating air heating.
  • the cleaning agents used can only be used in a certain temperature range. If, for example, a cleaning bath has an excessively high temperature (close to 100 ° C), the cleaning agents are chemically changed and their cleaning effect deteriorates considerably. On the other hand, if the cleaning bath is not warm enough (below the cloud point or just above it), the cleaning effect also diminishes because the washing activities are no longer adequately thermally supported. The higher viscosity of the greasing complicates the chemical washing process.
  • this known device with the known method used has the disadvantage that in the important first phase of the cleaning process, namely when the tank is flooded, there is no sufficient cleaning effect, in particular with regard to coarse dirt, that contact of the wet workpieces occurs during the subsequent process steps with the outside atmosphere still lasts for a certain time and that finally the workpieces in certain areas (blind holes, cavities, scooping surfaces) are not sufficiently washed around by agitated bath.
  • a method for cleaning office machines and similar mechanical devices is known from DD-PS 91 177. Then the office machines mentioned should be cleaned in a bathroom, rise in the bubble columns, which are formed by a pulsating gas flow.
  • a cleaning device for hospital equipment is known in which cleaning fluid is moved by spraying and the like by means of compressed air.
  • a cleaning device for small machine parts in which the machine parts are introduced into a basket-like vessel, the bottom of which is formed by a grid. Below the grille is a tube ring, the top of which is provided with outlet openings for air bubbles.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of developing a method and a device of the type mentioned in such a way that the above disadvantages are avoided and that the cleaning effect of metallic workpieces is improved overall.
  • the pressure-free gush pouring onto the workpieces with a very high flow rate also penetrates into inaccessible areas of the workpieces, forms vortices there and also takes dirt particles from there. This cannot be achieved with conventional devices in which thin liquid jets are directed onto the workpiece under high pressure, because there, on the one hand, only punctiform areas of the workpiece surface can be applied and, on the other hand, as already mentioned, inside areas are inaccessible.
  • the procedure according to the invention has the advantage that the workpieces are rinsed for a long time before the cleaning bath is let in, during a time in which injecting air would have no effect at all. because no immersion bath has been let in yet.
  • the subsequent process sequence has the advantage that the workpieces are kept constantly under liquid, even when the treatment bath is drained, with the result that no undesirable chemical reactions can form on the workpiece surface.
  • Another important advantage of the method according to the invention is that the treatment bath is continuously cleaned in parallel, during all the steps in which the treatment liquid is used, so that a completely self-sufficient system is created to which no further treatment liquids have to be added.
  • the method according to the invention is not restricted to certain sequences of washing or rinsing steps.
  • the method according to the invention can be used, for example, for washing with subsequent rinsing or for pre-washing, intermediate washing and post-washing with or without intermediate or subsequent rinsing steps.
  • the method according to the invention can also be used in conjunction with heat treatment processes, which is preferred, but it can equally well be used advantageously in other manufacturing processes.
  • a completely demineralized water is used as the rinsing liquid and this is mixed with a detergent after step i) and used as a cleaning liquid for a further subsequent process implementation.
  • This measure has the advantage that even a "used" rinsing bath can subsequently be used as a cleaning bath, with demineralized water being particularly suitable as a starting substance for a cleaning liquid.
  • a fine-pearled gas stream in particular with pearl sizes in the millimeter range, is used.
  • This measure has the advantage that a large number of gas pearls hit it per surface unit of a workpiece, so that on the one hand an intensive liquid movement is caused with a high dissolving effect and on the other hand a high mechanical cleaning effect is achieved both by the flowing liquid and by the impacting gas pearls.
  • the gas is introduced into the liquid in a pulsating manner with intermittently increased pressure.
  • This measure has the advantage that an increased mechanical cleaning effect is achieved by the intermittent injection of the gas.
  • the intermittent pressing also ensures, for example, that gas bubbles adhering to the surface of the metallic workpiece are neither torn off mechanically or by pressure fluctuations, so that cleaning liquid can occur in their place or other highly accelerated gas beads can hit the metal surface.
  • the gas is air.
  • This measure has the advantage that an economical gas that is available at all times can be used.
  • the gas is a protective gas which does not undergo any chemical reactions with the surface of the workpieces and / or does not support such chemical reactions.
  • This measure has the advantage that if metals or metal alloys are used which are sensitive to oxygen, for example, or in which oxygen in connection with water can cause microscopic corrosion, such as, for example, with some low-quality iron alloys, these materials can be cleaned without the cleaning process changes take place on the surface.
  • the liquid is water.
  • This measure has the advantage that an economical and environmentally friendly liquid is used as a solvent for the cleaning agent, which is completely harmless for the handling personnel.
  • a different rinsing liquid with or without additives or water with washing-active substances.
  • the cleaning agent is water, to which a gentle, fat-dissolving cleaning agent is added, which does not undergo chemical reactions with the surface of the workpieces and / or does not support such chemical reactions.
  • This measure has the advantage that no residues of the cleaning agent remain on the surface after washing processes.
  • the cleaning agent is neutral to slightly alkaline.
  • This measure has the advantage on the one hand that metals or metal alloys in these pH ranges of aqueous media are not attacked and that such media are environmentally neutral and harmless to the people who handle them.
  • the gas introduced has the temperature of the liquid.
  • This measure has the advantage that there is less solubility of the gas in the liquid in connection with the increased temperature control compared to normal temperature, so that even gases which tend to dissolve in a liquid under pressure do not do so under these circumstances but through the liquid as gas bubbles.
  • the workpieces are poured into a drum through which liquid can flow, the drum being immersed in the liquid and the gas beads flowing through the drum.
  • This measure has the advantage that a particularly intensive mixing and swirling of workpieces, liquid and gas flow is achieved by the additional movement of the bulk material in the drum. This makes it possible, for example, to clean even very small parts such as screws or the like with incised threads.
  • a particular advantage of the device according to the invention, as well as of the method according to the invention, is its flexibility by stringing together partially known and partially new plant components or process steps. This results in a particular degree of expandability and adaptability of the device or the method.
  • the gas injection device has a wall facing the liquid and provided with openings, through which the gas can be pressed into the liquid.
  • This measure which is known per se, has the advantage that the gas stream for agitating the bath is generated over a large surface and thus covers the entire interior of the wash tank.
  • the wall also extends laterally in the wash tank and the gas can be injected through the lateral openings under such a pressure that the gas flow reaches at least the center of the cross-sectional area of the wash tank in the lateral direction.
  • This measure has the advantage that, for example, if a round cylindrical container is used, the gas beads flow into the liquid not only from below but also from the side, in such a way that, viewed in the horizontal direction, they extend at least to the central longitudinal axis.
  • the lift then results in an increasing cam track. This means that even upper, possibly recessed surfaces can be cleaned excellently.
  • the gas injection device is designed as a double-walled body which can be accommodated in the container and whose side facing the liquid is provided with the openings.
  • This measure has the advantage that a simple and robust device is created, which can optionally also be retrofitted into existing wash tanks, so that, for example, containers that are still working with mechanical transport or agitators can currently be retrofitted.
  • the body is subdivided into segments and the segment sections can be supplied with the gas independently of one another.
  • This measure has the advantage that, depending on the type and length of the workpieces to be cleaned, differently designed gas streams can be generated.
  • the gas injection device is designed as a porous ceramic.
  • This measure has the advantage that no complicated hollow body has to be produced and that the gas bubbles distribute themselves by themselves.

  • the vacuum pump 70 Since the bath 83 is filled up to the overflow 38 in this process state, the vacuum pump 70 generates a strong negative pressure in the remaining small air space 91 in the area of the surge shower 52.
  • the negative pressure is now set so that the bath 83 begins to boil despite the temperature of 100 ° C. being below the boiling point of water at atmospheric pressure.
  • the vacuum must be set so that it corresponds to the saturation vapor pressure of water at the respective lower temperature and the hydrostatic pressure in the wash tank 12 is also taken into account, i.e. the height of the liquid column inside the tank.
  • the bath 83 begins to boil, even though its temperature is below 100 ° C.
  • the boiling of the bath 83 has the result that steam bubbles form at every point in the bath 83, that is to say not only on the surfaces of the workpieces 30, but rather also in cavities, bores, blind bores, scoops and the like.
  • the vapor bubbles thus also arise at those locations on the workpieces that cannot be reached by air bubbles that were generated by the device 22 for injecting gas.
  • the rising steam bubbles take along dirt particles via adhesive forces, with the result that blind bores, scooping surfaces and the like can also be cleaned by taking dirt particles with them.
  • the intensity of the boiling can be varied by adjusting the negative pressure accordingly via the vacuum pump 70.
  • the dirt carried up by the steam bubbles during the vacuum cooking collects on the surface of the bath and can be removed from the wash tank 12 in the manner already described via the overflow 38 after the cooking phase has ended.
  • the cooking of the bath 83 can be provided both during cleaning and during rinsing, because the chemical cleaning process is supported during cleaning, while the difficult to access spaces can be rinsed out in the manner mentioned during rinsing. It is understood that it is also possible to circulate and / or agitate the bath 83 when cooking under reduced pressure.
  • the suction side of the pump 43 is connected to the pipe socket 65 via a line 95, a valve 95a being arranged in the line 95.
  • the corresponding treatment liquid can now be sucked off the pipe socket 65 despite the negative pressure prevailing in the wash tank 12 and added again via the surge shower 52. It is understood that in this case as well, suitable measures can be used to continuously clean the respective treatment liquid (not shown).
  • a condenser 92 is arranged in the line 71 'because the vacuum pump 70 sucks off the vapor of the respective treatment liquid in the manner described and this vapor should not get into the vacuum pump 70. For this reason, an appropriate supply of air will ensure that the vacuum pump 70 always draws in a mixture of air and steam, the steam in the condenser 92 then precipitating out and being supplied to the respective tanks for the treatment liquids. This has the advantage that the treatment liquids do not thicken, i.e. Salt up by keeping the water loss as low as possible.
  • the amount of steam for the vacuum pump 70 is reduced by the amount of condensed steam, so that the vacuum pump 70 can be economically small.
  • the vacuum pump 70 can only pump out saturated air
  • the air required by the vacuum pump 70 is preferably supplied via the hollow body 63. You can measure the air required by the vacuum pump 70 so that it just corresponds to the amount of flotation air.
  • Vacuum cooking can now be integrated in a variety of ways into the process steps explained above with reference to FIGS. 2-6:
  • vacuum cooking can be used permanently in the immersion process, with the result that cooking is carried out under vacuum during the entire cleaning or rinsing time.
  • vacuum cooking in the immersion process can also be used for floating, i.e. each for part of the cleaning or rinsing time.
  • the vacuum cooking method can also be used in a pulsating manner by appropriate setting by means of the control device 75, be it during the entire cleaning or rinsing time or during individual time segments.
  • a pulsating vacuum boiling can be achieved in this case by strongly evacuating the wash tank 12 until the boiling effect sets in or almost sets in, in order to then bring to a boil by the sudden addition of fresh air, i.e. to cause a pressure release.
  • the fresh air can be supplied via the hollow body 63 or also via the surge shower 52.
  • the step of vacuum cooking can last from 1 min to 20 min.
  • FIG. 8 shows a variant of a device 100, only one wash tank 104 being shown here, which largely corresponds to the wash tank 12 of the device 10 according to FIGS. 1-7. Therefore, essentially only the deviating elements will be described below and in Fig. 8 the same reference numerals have been used for corresponding components.
  • the wash tank 104 is also designed as a container which is approximately circular in cross section and is provided on its bottom with a pipe socket 105, which is intended here to represent the pipe socket 46 and 65 of the wash tank 12 according to FIGS. 1-7.
  • the wash tank 100 also has a drum 106 which can be rotated about a horizontal axis 108 via a drive 107. Hexagonal workpieces 110, 110 ' « are contained in the drum 106.
  • the wash tank 104 is provided with an overflow 111, which is connected both to the second tank 16, which contains the cleaning liquid 42, and to the first tank 14, which contains the rinsing liquid 47.
  • the wash tank 104 is connected to the vacuum station 18 via a side connection.
  • a connection piece 114 can also be present in the cover 112.
  • the surge shower 113 is arranged on the inside of the cover 112 and, in the manner already explained several times, serves to flush the workpieces 110 accommodated in the interior of the wash tank 104 with a surge without pressure.
  • the wash tank 104 is filled with the cleaning liquid 42 up to the overflow 111.
  • the wash tank 104 there is a holder 118 which carries various other workpieces 120.
  • a device 122 for injecting gas (in the exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 8, the gas is nitrogen) consists of a hollow body 126 which has a bottom part 130 and a side part 131.
  • the side part 131 extends on one side of the holder 118 and surrounds it at least over a large part of its circumference.
  • the hollow body 126 is again provided on the side facing the holder 118, as previously described, with numerous openings, which are designed as nozzles 128 in the embodiment shown in FIG. 8.
  • the nitrogen coming from the pressure vessel 60 emerges from the nozzles 128 in the form of fine beads or bubbles 127.
  • the bubbles 127 flow completely around the workpieces 120, as is indicated, for example, by an arrow 136.
  • Providing the side part 131 also produces a laterally directed bubble flow, as is indicated, for example, by the arrow 139. This creates an upwardly curved line because the bubbles emerging from the side nozzles 128 soon tend to rise due to the buoyancy.
  • the pressure that emerges from the side nozzles 128 gas bubbles 127 is adjusted during a cleaning process so that they reach at least approximately the longitudinal central axis of the wash tank 104, ie seen in the section of FIG. 8, as indicated by the arrow 138, at least via the half width in the lateral direction.
  • the side part 131 which at least partially surrounds the holder 118, ensures that rapid cleaning is possible even with workpieces 120 of complex shape.
  • the hollow body 126 can be subdivided into a top section 134, a middle section 135 and a bottom section via separating slides 132 and 133, so that, depending on the type of goods received in the wash tank 104, gas 141 only in the area of the bottom or also one or more one above the other arranged side areas is pressed.
  • the rising gas beads 127 also generate a secondary flow, as indicated by an arrow 137.
  • the liquid received in the wash tank 104 then flows in a circulating circuit.
  • FIGS. 9 and 10 show yet another exemplary embodiment of devices according to the invention, as can be used to carry out the method according to the invention.
  • a device for cleaning, in particular, metallic workpieces which comprises a wash tank 151.
  • a holder 152 for workpieces is in turn provided in the wash tank 151.
  • the arrangement is such that the holder 152 can be removed from the wash tank 151 in the horizontal direction via a loading door 153.
  • the loading door 153 is preferably displaceable in the vertical direction, as indicated by an arrow.
  • the liquids and gases can be supplied and discharged via lines 154, 155 and 156 in the manner already explained in detail, with no differences arising in the course of the method.
  • surge shower 157 which also delivers a pressure-free water surge in the device 150, even if the area of action is greater in the horizontal construction shown in FIGS. 9 and 10 than in the vertical arrangement in FIGS. 1-8.
  • the wash tank 151 is arranged on a frame 160 which at the same time holds the tanks 161, 162 for the treatment liquids.
  • the tanks 161, 162 are again provided for the cleaning liquid and the rinsing liquid.
  • an additional heater can be provided in the wash tank 12 in order to be able to work with cooler parts or to be able to dry even with large amounts of water remaining by the additional heater applying the required additional heat of vaporization.
  • Ultrasonic generators can also be provided in the wash tank 12 in a manner known per se, in order to cause cavitation in the treatment liquid by extreme physical forces.
