Problems solved by technology

However, the disadvantages of this welding method are: 1. It is only suitable for pure aluminum or rust-proof aluminum with good plasticity; 2. It can only be used for welding thin aluminum plates to the surface of steel plates, but not for other welding joint forms
This mechanical aluminum-steel member connection method also has the following disadvantages: 1. The structure of the connection part is complicated, so the cost of the parts is high and the production efficiency is low; 2. The gap at the joint of the aluminum-steel connector not only affects the use effect of the member, And the fretting fatigue caused by the assembly gap will reduce the mechanical properties of the connecting parts, especially the poor fatigue strength, so the safety factor of the components is low

Abstract

The linear friction welding process between aluminum part and steel part includes the following steps: fixing the steel part in a vibrating fixture; vibrating the steel part vertically by means of a vibrating source and a link rod and at 24-30 Hz frequency and 2.0-2.8 mm amplitude; fixing the aluminum part in a movable fixture; contacting the steel part and the aluminum part mutually with a pushing oil cylinder in the friction pressure of 3.5-5.5 Kg / sq mm for 1.5-2.0 sec; stopping vibration and applying forging pressure of 6.5-12.0 Kg / sq mm for 0.5-1 sec; and cooling naturally to form firm joint between the aluminum part and the steel part. The present invention controls the temperature in friction area at 0.8 time the smelting point of aluminum and applying forging pressure to produce plastic deformation so as to weld by means of re-crystallization and the atomic combination between aluminum and steel.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a welding method of aluminum parts and steel parts, in particular to a linear friction welding method of aluminum parts and steel parts. Background technique [0002] Aluminum itself is a metal material with poor weldability, especially duralumin and super duralumin have a strong tendency of thermal cracking, and its weldability is even worse. However, the thermophysical properties of aluminum and steel are very different, and it is extremely difficult to realize the welding of these two materials, which has always been a technical problem in the field of continuous exploration and research in the field of welding. [0003] There are two known methods for welding aluminum parts and steel parts together and for actual production: one is explosive welding; the other is rotary friction welding. [0004] Explosive welding is a method that can weld pure aluminum or rust-proof aluminum with better plasticity to large-area steel plat...
