Laminated block with segment sheets connected by high-temperature soldering
This invention relates to a laminated block, in particular a hydraulic control valve block, having a plurality of segmental plates (S 1 -S 26 ) that are stacked one on top of another and are connected to one another. To easily and economically increase the strength of the laminated block, in particular with respect to pressure loads that are exerted as pulses and to expand the range of its potential applications, the segmental plates (S 1 -S 26 ) are adhesively connected to one another by high-temperature soldering by nickel solder. Prior to the soldering, the nickel solder is located on the surface of the segmental plates (S 1 -S 25 ).
1 . A laminated block, comprising:
a plurality of segmental plates stacked one on top of another and connected with one another,
wherein the segmental plates are adhesively connected to one another by high-temperature soldering, and
wherein nickel solder is located flat on the segmental plates prior to the soldering.
2 . The laminated block as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the laminated block is a hydraulic control valve block.
3 . The laminated block as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the nickel solder is applied to at least one side of the segmental plates in the form of a paste using a screen printing process.
4 . The laminated block as claimed in claim 1 , having a solder joint thickness in the range of 10 to 30 microns between adjacent segmental plates that are adhesively connected to one another.
5 . The laminated block as claimed in claim 3 , having a solder joint thickness in the range of 10 to 30 microns between adjacent segmental plates that are adhesively connected to one another.
6 . The laminated block as claimed in claim 1 , including a segmental plate provided as a bottom cover plate and connected with at least two vertical fixing pins which are in sliding engagement with fixing borings that are aligned with one another in subsequent segmental plates.
7 . The laminated block as claimed in claim 3 , including a segmental plate provided as a bottom cover plate and connected with at least two vertical fixing pins which are in sliding engagement with fixing borings that are aligned with one another in subsequent segmental plates.
8 . The laminated block as claimed in claim 4 , including a segmental plate provided as a bottom cover plate and connected with at least two vertical fixing pins which are in sliding engagement with fixing borings that are aligned with one another in subsequent segmental plates.
9 . The laminated block as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the fixing pins are caulked with the bottom cover plate.
10 . The laminated block as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the segmental plates are made of tempered steel.
11 . The laminated block as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the segmental plates are made of tempered steel.
12 . The laminated block as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the segmental plates are made of tempered steel.
13 . The laminated block as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the segmental plates are made of tempered steel.
14 . The laminated block as claimed in claim 1 , wherein at least one side wall of the laminated block has a stop which is configured to come into contact against a chucking device that acts in a vertical direction, which at least one stop is located between an upper side and the underside of the laminated block.
15 . The laminated block as claimed in claim 3 , wherein at least one side wall of the laminated block has a stop which is configured to come into contact against a chucking device that acts in a vertical direction, which at least one stop is located between an upper side and the underside of the laminated block.
16 . The laminated block as claimed in claim 4 , wherein at least one side wall of the laminated block has a stop which is configured to come into contact against a chucking device that acts in a vertical direction, which at least one stop is located between an upper side and the underside of the laminated block.
17 . A method of making a laminated hydraulic control valve block, comprising:
providing a plurality of segmental plates;
applying nickel solder to a surface of the segmental plates;
stacking the segmental plates; and
adhesively connecting the segmental plates by high-temperature soldering.
18 . The method as claimed in claim 17 , including applying the nickel solder in the form of a paste by a screen printing process.
19 . The method as claimed in claim 17 , including applying the nickel solder to form a solder joint thickness in the range of 10 microns to 30 microns between adjacent segmental plates.
20 . The method as claimed in claim 19 , including applying the nickel solder to form a solder joint thickness of 20 microns.
