Abstract

The present invention relates to the technical field of clock machining, in particular to a method for manufacturing clock hardware by means of blocky metallic glass. According to the present invention, the rapid cooling technique is adopted, complicated hardware can also be formed at a time, errors are extremely small, the precision is high, smooth surfaces can also be formed on the edges of the gear teeth of a manufactured gear, and the clock movement assembly accuracy is improved; the manufacturing technique is simple, the production time is short, the production efficiency is high, the required effect can be achieved without polishing the surface of the manufactured hardware, the product quality is improved, labor is greatly saved, time is saved, and environmental friendliness is achieved.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method for manufacturing clock hardware by means of blocky metallic glass, characterized by comprising the following steps of:
 A. heating raw metal constituting the blocky metallic glass to the temperature of 1400-1500° C. so that the raw metal can be liquefied to form molten metal;   B. vacuumizing a mold cavity of a mold;   C. injecting the molten metal into the mold cavity;   D. pressurizing the mold cavity so that the mold cavity can be filled with the molten metal and rapidly cooling the molten metal in the mold cavity at the same time so that the molten metal can be solidified to form a blocky metallic glass structure.   
     
     
         2 . The method for manufacturing the clock hardware by means of the blocky metallic glass according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the blocky metallic glass is Zr-based blocky metallic glass. 
     
     
         3 . The method for manufacturing the clock hardware by means of the blocky metallic glass according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the raw metal of the blocky metallic glass is at least prepared from Zr, Fe, Ni, Cu, Ti, Mn, Si, Pd and Co through mixing. 
     
     
         4 .
