AGGREGATE FOR MAKING POWDER WIRE Russian patent published in 2001 - IPC

FIELD: hardware industry branch, namely manufacture of powder wire. SUBSTANCE: aggregate includes uncoiling unit, unit for cleaning band having controlled direct current source, two cathode sections and one anode section arranged between cathode sections, apparatus for drying, shaping apparatus and drawing bench. Novelty is anode section of unit for cleaning band. Said section is in the form of plasmatron whose two electrodes are connected with positive pole of controlled direct current source. Said two electrodes are arranged in parallel relative to cleaned surfaces of band and they are made in the form of rectangular current-conductive plates mutually joined by means of current conductive rods. Surfaces of plates and rods are covered by electrically insulation material except plate surfaces turned towards cleaned band. In electrically insulation material there are grooves between plates. Negative pole of direct current source in cathode sections is connected with band through rotary electric-current supply rollers arranged in electrolyte medium. EFFECT: enhanced efficiency of cleaning band for making wire due to intensified electric current discharges. 4 dwg
