Description
Patented June 18, 1957 BLASTING MATERIAL OF METAL FOR TREATING SURFACES Richard Haber], Lochham, near Munich, Germany, as-
signor to Firma Bayrische Berg-, I-Iuttenand Salzwerke Akt.-Ges., Munich, Germany No Drawing. Application August 4, 1954, Serial No. 447,920
Claims priority, application Germany November 23, 1953 15 Claims. (Cl. 51-309) The present invention relates to blasting materials and more particularly to blasting materials for cleaning and otherwise treating surface.
Prior to the present invention blasting materials used for the cleaning of castings, rolling stock and other materials and also for the descaling of surfaces were mainly produced by spattering a suitable iron or steel alloy in liquid form into water whereby substantially round smooth surfaced grains are formed. These grains are subsequently broken in order to create rough surfaces which will give these broken grains in operation a cutting, shearing, and nicking effect.
Two main disadvantages are connected with the use of such broken grains: First, in usage the jagged edges and projections which form most of their rough surface are soon worn down or rounded and consequently the useful life span of these grains is rather short.
Second, the moving parts of the centrifugal blasting machine that come in contact with these rough surfaced grains, especially the blades of the machine show considerable wear after short periods of operation. The wear of these machine parts and also of the rough surfaced metal grains increases with increased centrifugal speeds of the blasting machine. The wear is therefore technologically significant and in its economic consequences more marked at high centrifugal speeds. The recent tendency to increase the centrifugal speed of these blasting machines in order to improve the blasting effect and to shorten the blasting time, makes these discussed disadvantages of rough surfaced metal grains even more manifest.
It is therefore an object of the present invention to overcome these disadvantages.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide a blasting mixture which has both a hammering and a cutting effect.
It is still a further object of the present invention to provide a blasting material with improved properties which also increases the wearing ability of the moving parts of blasting machines.
Other objects and advantages of the present invention will be apparent from a further reading of the specification and of the appended claims.
With the above objects in view the present invention mainly comprises blasting material for cleaning and otherwise treating surfaces, the blasting material essentially consisting of a mixture of smooth surfaced metal grains and rough surfaced metal grains.
In a preferred embodiment of the present invention the rough surfaced and smooth surfaced metal grains are both formed from the same metal composition and are of substantially the same size.
The amount of the smooth surfaced metal grains is preferably between 20 and 50% by weight of the mixture of smooth surfaced and rough surfaced metal grains.
In a further embodiment of the present invention the rough surfaced grains are hardened to greater wear resistance than the smooth surfaced grains by a change in composition and/ or heat treatment.
Preferably the grains are made of a metal such as iron or steel.
.In another embodiment of the present invention the smooth surfaced grains are shaped substantially spherical or spheroidal and the rough surfaced grains have a jagged surface portion.
The use of only smooth surfaced grains, such as spherical grains achieves only a hammering effect which is insufiicient for proper cleaning and descaling of surfaces as is normally required in blasting operations. Furthermore, such smooth surfaced grains could not properly penetrate into any recesses in the surface of the object to be treated.
It is one of the advantages of a mixture of rough surfaced and smooth surfaced metal grains to greatly prolong the useful life span of the rough surfaced metal grains, since the smooth surfaced grains in the blasting mixture, by exerting a hammering effect on the surface to be cleaned, reduce the amount of wear to which the rough surfaced grains are exposed during operation.
It is a further advantage of this invention to protect the blasting equipment from the wear experienced by using only rough surfaced metal grains, since the smooth surfaced grains execute essentially a rolling movement only, which in itself does not exert any substantial wear on the parts of the blasting machine, and also because these smooth surfaced grains prevent to a considerable extent direct contact between the surfaces of the blasting machinery and the wear exerting rough surfaced metal grains. Consequently, and especially important under present-day high centrifugal speed methods of operation, wearing out and replacement of exposed parts of the blasting machinery is considerably delayed. This results in substantial technological and economical advantages.
In another embodiment the size of the smooth surfaced grains is kept somewhat smaller than the size of the rough surfaced grains. It has been found that this size relationship gives best results in a great number of applications. However, certain variations in the size relationship are sometimes indicated depending on the specific operating conditions and the type and condition of the surface to be treated. Based on the present disclosure it is not difiicult for one skilled in the art to experimentally determine the best sizes, and size relationship between smooth surfaced and rough surfaced grains as well as the best weight relationship between these two types of grains, applicable to the specific surface to be treated.
The most suitable Weight relationship is determined experimentally in each case by ascertaining in which relationship the optimum blasting effect can be achieved by keeping at the same time the wear of the machine parts within tolerable limits. For instance in a given case an experiment with a mixture of smooth surfaced grains and broken grains showed a working life of the blasting material 2 /2 times as long as the working life of a blasting material consisting exclusively of rough surfaced grains of the same composition. Moreover, by using this mixture, the wear of the centrifugal blades of the blasting machine was only half of what it was when using exclusively rough surfaced grains.
To assure technologically and economically optimum blasting performance it should be endeavored to keep the mixing proportion constant, once it has been found to be the most suitable proportion. This is not automatically the case because of the faster wear of the rough surfaced grains. It can be achieved by imparting to the rough surfaced grains a higher wear resistance. If the rough surfaced grains are of the same composition as Example 1 A blasting material is composed of a mixture of smooth surfaced metal grains and of rough surfaced metal grains the metal having a composition of:
Si 1.6%, Mn 0.5%, P 0.8%, S 0.11%, C 3.30%, re-
mainder iron,
in which the maximum diameter of the smooth surfaced metal grains is between 0.22 mm. and 0.30 mm., in which the maximum diameter of the rough surfaced grains is between 0.35 and 0.45 mm. The material is composed of 20% by weight of smooth surfaced metal grains and 80% by weight of rough surfaced metal grains.
Example 2 A blasting material is composed of a mixture of smooth surfaced metal grains and of rough surfaced metal grains the metal having a composition of:
the smooth surfaced metal grains: Si 0.8%, Mn 06%,
P 0.8%, S 0.08%, C 2.10%, remainder iron,

The material is composed of 60% by Weight of smooth surfaced metal grains and 40% by weight of rough surfaced metal grains.
Example 3 A blasting material is composed of a mixture of smooth surfaced metal grains and of rough surfaced metal grains the metal having a composition of:
Si 1.5%, Mn 0.5%, Ni 0.4%, Cr 0.3%, P 0.3%, S 0.10%,
C 2.00%, remainder iron,
in which the maximum diameter of the smooth surfaced metal grains is between 1.00 mm. and 1.40 mm., and in which the maximum diameter of the rough. surfaced grains is between 0.8 mm. and 1.2 mm. The material is composed of 45% by weight of smooth surfaced metal grains and 55% by weight of rough surfaced metal grains.
Example 4 A blasting material is composed of a mixture of smooth surfaced metal grains and of rough surfaced metal grains the metal having a composition of:
the smooth surfaced metal grains: Si 1.8%, Mn 0.7%,
P 0.95%, S 0.08%, C 3.20%, remainder iron,
the rough surfaced metal grains: Si 1.7%, Mn 0.6%, Ni 1.0%, Cr 0.70%, P 0.40%, S 0.12%, C 3.35%, remainder iron,
in which the maximum diameter of the smooth surfaced metal grains is between 0.7 mm. and 1.0 mm., and in which the maximum diameter of the rough surfaced grains is between 0.7 mm. and 1.0 mm. The material is composed of 45% by weight of smooth surfaced metal grains and 55% by weight of rough surfaced metal grains.
Without further analysis, the foregoing will so fully reveal the gist of the present invention that others can by applying current knowledge readily adapt it for various applications without omitting features that, from the standpoint of prior art, fairly constitute essential characteristics of the generic or specific aspects of this invention and, therefore, such adaptations should and are intended to be comprehended within the meaning and range of equivalence of the following claims.
