Abstract:
A solenoidal induction coil with dynamically variable coil geometry is provided for inductively welding or heating continuous or discontinuous workpieces passing through the solenoidal induction coil in a process line. The coil geometry can change, for example, as the outer dimension of the workpiece passing through the solenoidal induction coil changes or as non-continuous workpieces pass through the solenoidal induction coil in an induction heating or welding process line.
Abstract:
High frequency electrical heating system is provided for heating electrically conductive parts as they are advanced, either for annealing or welding processes, and in which the electrical heating current is supplied by a solid state DC to AC inverter through a load matching and frequency control circuit that maintains the desired load current and frequency with changes in the load impedance caused by the electrically conductive parts as they are advanced. Load matching is achieved with high frequency variable reactors having a geometrically-shaped moveable insert core section and a stationary split-bus section with a complementary geometrically-shaped split bus section and a split electric terminal bus section where the insert core section can be moved relative to the stationary split-bus section to vary the inductance of the reactor pair.
Abstract:
A high frequency power supply system provides highly regulated power and frequency to a workpiece load where the highly regulated power and frequency can be independent of the workpiece load characteristics by inverter switching control and an inverter output impedance adjusting and frequency control network that can include precision variable reactors with a geometrically-shaped moveable insert core section and a stationary split-bus section with a complementary geometrically-shaped split bus section and split electric terminal bus section where the insert core section can be moved relative to the stationary split-bus section to vary the inductance of the variable reactors.
Abstract:
A spray quench system is provided with one or more spray quench rings that eject a controlled volume of quenchant spray onto a workpiece passing through the quench rings. Supply of the quenchant to the quench rings is coordinated with control of the quench rings to selectively change the pressure, quenchant spray exit velocity from the quench rings, flow rate or pattern of the quenchant spray onto the workpiece depending upon mass cooling requirements as the workpiece passes through the quench rings.
Abstract:
Two adjacent re-entrant surfaces of metal parts to be welded together, at least one of the parts having metal extending in a direction away from an edge of its surface, and the metal immediately adjacent to such surfaces are heated to forge welding temperature by an induction coil supplied with an electric current having a magnitude and frequency for a time which will cause such heating without significant melting of the metal or over-heating and consequent damage to the remainder of the parts and after the forge welding temperature is reached, pressure sufficient to forge weld the parts together at such surfaces is applied to the parts.
