Description
본 발명은 고탄력 메탈오링씰에 관한 것으로, 보다 상세하게는 고무오링씰을 대신하여 초고압, 초고진공, 초저온 등의 열악한 운전조건에 부합되도록 메탈 재질로 이루어져 내부를 기밀시키는 고탄력 메탈오링씰에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a high-elastic metal O-ring seal, and more particularly to a high-elastic metal O-ring seal made of a metal material to meet the poor operating conditions such as ultra-high pressure, ultra-high vacuum, ultra-low temperature in place of the rubber o-ring seal .
일반적으로 고무오링씰은 낮은 체결력으로도 쉽게 기밀을 유지할 뿐만 아니라 높은 복원력으로 인해 재사용이 가능하여 압력이나 진공분야 등에서 가장 널리 이용되고 있다. 그러나, 고무는 열에 취약하여 고온에서의 사용이 제한되며, 가스투과성 및 고무의 방출가스로 인해 초고진공 환경에서 이용하기가 적합하지 않다. 따라서 고무재질를 사용할 수 없는 열약한 환경에 적합한 금속재질이 주로 이용되고 있다.In general, rubber o-ring seals are most widely used in pressure and vacuum applications because they can be easily reusable due to high resilience as well as maintain airtightness even with low clamping force. However, rubber is susceptible to heat, which limits its use at high temperatures and is not suitable for use in ultra-high vacuum environments due to its gas permeability and release of rubber. Therefore, a metal material suitable for a poor environment where a rubber material cannot be used is mainly used.
그러나, 금속재질로 이루어진 메탈오링씰의 경우에는 고무오링씰과 비교하여 매우 높은 체결력을 요구하고, 탄성복원력이 현격하게 낮음으로 인한 소성변형으로 일회성으로 이용되거나 잦은 교체 빈도로 인해 운전장치의 정비 및 유지비용이 증대되는 문제점이 있었다.However, metal O-ring seals, which are made of metal, require very high clamping force compared to rubber o-ring seals, and are used only once due to plastic deformation due to the remarkably low elastic restoring force or maintenance of the operating device due to frequent replacement frequency. There was a problem that the maintenance cost is increased.
여기서, 도 1은 일반적인 메탈오링씰이 일정 하중에 의해 압축되는 상태를 나타낸 개략도이며, 도 2는 일반적인 메탈오링씰에 일정 하중이 가해져 압축되었을 때와 상기 일정 하중이 제거되어 복원되었을 때의 상태를 측정하여 압축/복원 특성 곡선으로 나타낸 그래프이다. 상기 도 2에서 'Y0'는 메탈오링씰의 압축시 기밀이 유지되는 시작하는 하중, 'Y2'는 적정압축에 대응되는 하중, 'Y1'은 상기 압축이 해제되었을 때 누설이 시작되는 하중을 의미하며, 'e2'는 최대 압축량을 나타낸다. Here, FIG. 1 is a schematic view showing a state in which a general metal o-ring seal is compressed by a constant load, and FIG. 2 shows a state when the metal o-ring seal is compressed by applying a predetermined load to the general metal o-ring seal and when the predetermined load is removed and restored. This is a graph of the compression / restore characteristic curve measured. In FIG. 2, 'Y 0 ' is a load at which airtightness is maintained during compression of the metal O-ring seal, 'Y 2 ' is a load corresponding to proper compression, and 'Y 1 ' is leakage when the compression is released. It means the load, 'e 2 ' represents the maximum compression amount.
도 1 및 도 2를 참고하면, 일반적인 메탈오링씰은 볼트나 클램프 등의 체결수단에 의해 압축시 탄성복원력이 작용하고, 상기 탄성복원력은 틈새를 좁히면서 기밀을 유지시킨다. 탄성복원력은 메탈오링씰에 저장된 탄성에너지량에 따라 결정되며 기밀성능 및 수명에 영향을 미친다. 1 and 2, a general metal O-ring seal is an elastic restoring force acts upon compression by a fastening means such as bolts or clamps, the elastic restoring force to maintain the airtight while narrowing the gap. The elastic restoring force is determined by the amount of elastic energy stored in the metal O-ring seal and affects the airtight performance and lifespan.
즉, 메탈오링씰의 압축, 탄성복원 특성은 메탈오링씰의 기밀성능과 수명시간에 영향을 미치는 매우 중요한 인자이며, 고무와 같이 유연하고 탄성복원력이 우수한 재료가 씰링 메커니즘에 가장 적합하나, 고무오링씰을 적용할 수 없는 환경에서 사용되는 메탈오링씰은 고무재질에 비하여 탄성복원력이 매우 떨어지므로 탄성복원력을 개선하기 위해서는 보다 유연한 구조로 변경하는 것이 필요한 실정이다.In other words, the compression and elasticity recovery characteristics of the metal O-ring seal are very important factors affecting the airtight performance and life time of the metal o-ring seals. Although flexible and elastically resilient materials such as rubber are most suitable for the sealing mechanism, rubber O-rings Metal O-ring seals used in an environment in which seals cannot be applied have a very low elastic restoring force as compared to rubber materials, so it is necessary to change the structure to a more flexible structure to improve elastic restoring force.
