Description
Busbar manufacturing equipment for fuses The technical field of the present invention relates to a busbar manufacturing device for fuses, and in particular to a busbar manufacturing device for fuses implemented to form (or process) a central part as a short-circuit section when manufacturing a CCA (copper clad aluminum) type busbar. Busbars can take various shapes depending on the requirements, but generally they are flat and elongated in the longitudinal direction. As the surface area increases, the heat dissipation effect is superior, and by lowering the impedance of high-frequency currents flowing on the surface, large currents can be transmitted, and more electrical energy can be transferred through a conductor of the same volume. Accordingly, busbars constitute transmission circuits such as large-scale transmission and distribution lines with high current capacity, conductors for electrical equipment, and communication cables in power plants, large buildings, large factories, large department stores, subways, and new airports, and are also used as a substitute for cables in large-capacity distribution systems. These busbars are made and used almost exclusively of pure copper due to their high electrical conductivity (100% IACS) and melting point (1083℃). However, pure copper is not only expensive but also has a relatively high specific gravity (8.92 g/ cm³ ), making it difficult to store and install busbars and requiring a long installation time, which is a factor that increases the overall production and installation costs of the equipment. Accordingly, a busbar manufactured by coating the exterior of aluminum with copper was developed to reduce costs, decrease weight, and improve performance. The inner core of these busbars is aluminum, and the top, bottom, and both sides are coated with copper. Korean Registered Patent No. 10-2034011 (registered on October 14, 2019) discloses a method for manufacturing a busbar, comprising: a placement step of placing a second conductor, which is a rod-shaped copper, at each end of a first conductor, which is a rod-shaped aluminum; a friction welding step of friction welding between the first conductor and the second conductor; and a compression step of forming a busbar by compressing the first conductor and the second conductor friction-welded in the friction welding step. In the friction welding step, the first conductor and the second conductor are mounted on a friction welding machine, and the first conductor and the second conductor are rotated in mutually opposite directions at a rotational speed of 1,600 to 2,200 rpm by rotational force, and while the first conductor and the second conductor are in close contact and rotating in mutually opposite directions, a pressing force in the direction of the contact surface is applied in a range of 7 to 20 tons to join them. The compression step comprises a preheating process of preheating a press device to a preset temperature. The method comprises: a first compression process in which a first conductor and a second conductor, which are friction-welded, are fed into a preheated press device and then compressed to form a busbar; a tempering process in which the compressed busbar is tempered at a preset temperature; and a second compression process in which the tempered busbar is fed into a press device and compressed to form a second busbar, and further comprises, after the compression step, a coating step in which both ends of the busbar are punched to form holes for terminal connection and the surface of the busbar is coated using a coating agent. According to the disclosed technology, by manufacturing a busbar by friction welding copper to both ends of aluminum, costs can be reduced, weight can be decreased, and performance can be improved. In other words, as the busbar becomes significantly lighter, it can be used in various means of transportation, including automobiles, that require lightweight and rigidity. Furthermore, storage and transportation are easy, workability is improved, and the bonding between aluminum and copper is robust and possesses high strength, while busbars of desired sizes and shapes can be manufactured. Korean Registered Patent No. 10-2290087 (registered on August 10, 2021) discloses a copper-aluminum clad busbar and a method for manufacturing the same, which possesses excellent bonding characteristics and can significantly improve galvanic corrosion through a simple process in which an aluminum material formed by compressing aluminum powder into a through hole in the center of a column-shaped copper material is inserted and extruded, and then copper material fastening parts at both ends are joined by friction stir welding. According to the disclosed technology, a busbar for transmitting electrical energy comprises: a conductive part having a column-shaped aluminum material formed by compressing aluminum powder and a copper material surrounding the outer perimeter of the aluminum material; an
