摘要:
Metallic ribbon having cutout patterns therein is provided in continuous helical form. The cutout patterns may be situated to intersect either or both of the ribbon edges or may be situated entirely within the ribbon. The helical ribbon with the cutout patterns may additionally have a nesting, or self-stacking, feature.
摘要:
Metallic ribbon is provided in continuous helical form. The ribbon may be nested and/or manufactured with a continuous pattern of predetermined geometry in the inner and/or the outer edge as well as in the interior of the ribbon.
摘要:
Metallic ribbon is fabricated in continuous helical form by directing a melt stream or jet onto a rapidly moving substrate surface. The axis of the crucible along which the melt stream or jet is cast is defined by an inverted cone with apex at the point of crucible axis intersection with the substrate surface.

A critical gas boundary layer Reynolds number has been defined to indicate processing conditions under which wide glassy alloy ribbons result when processing under various gaseous atmospheres and pressures and casting onto a moving substrate at an impingement angle .alpha..

An apparatus and method for casting metal strip includes a moving chill body that has a quench surface. A nozzle mechanism deposits a stream of molten metal on a quenching region of the quench surface to form the strip. The nozzle mechanism has an exit portion with a nozzle orifice. A depletion mechanism includes a plurality of independently controllable gas nozzles to supply a reducing gas to multiple zones of a depletion region located adjacent to and upstream from the quenching region. The gas flow profile can be controlled in each zone independently of controlling the gas flow in other zones. The reducing gas reacts exothermically to lower the density to provide a low density reducing atmosphere within the depletion and substantially prevent formation of gas pockets in the strip.

A rapidly solidified amorphous metallic alloy is composed of iron, boron, silicon and carbon. The alloy exhibits in combination high saturation induction, high Curie temperature, high crystallization temperature, low core loss and low exciting power at line frequencies and is particularly suited for use in cores of transformers for an electrical power distribution network.
摘要:
A quench substrate for rapid solidification of molten alloy into strip has a microcrystalline or amorphous structure. The substrate is composed of a thermally conducting alloy and the structure is substantially homogeneous. The substrate is a thermal conducting material such as copper or a copper alloy, and has a constituent grain size uniformity greater than 1 .mu.m and less than 1,000 .mu.m in size.

The invention provides an apparatus and method for continuously casting a filament, such as a glassy metal filament, at high speed within a zone of preselected vacuum. A continuous extrusion mechanism and a rapidly moving quench surface are located within a casting module. A vacuum mechanism provides the preselected vacuum in the module as the filament is cast, and a transport mechanism continuously moves the resultant rapidly advancing filament across the boundary between the vacuum in the casting airlock mechanism substantially preserves the module vacuum as the cast filament is transported across the boundary and a passivator mechanism passivates the quench surface to prevent the filament from adhering thereto.

Filaments of glassy metallic alloys prepared by chill block melt-spinning are consolidated under heat and pressure by uniaxial pressing to form discrete self-supporting glassy metallic alloy bodies of substantially uniform composition.
摘要:
Filaments of glassy metallic alloys prepared by chill block melt-spinning are consolidated under heat and pressure by an extrusion process. Products obtainable by the process include discrete bodies of glassy metallic alloys of substantially uniform composition and articles having one or more layers of glassy metallic alloy clad onto one or more non-glassy metallic alloy substrates.
