Abstract

The invention discloses a combination device capable of achieving underwater laser welding and laser shot blasting. A laser welding-shot blasting component, an ultrasound detecting device, a water-argon inlet and a welding strip filling device are mounted on the same sealing cover which is placed underwater. Two functions of laser welding and laser shot blasting are achieved, and laser ultrasound detecting can be directly carried out on a workpiece after processing. By setting different laser wavelengths and sealing cover cavity inner environments, different functions can be used. During laser welding, a sealing cover cavity is filled with argon through the water-argon inlet. During laser shot blasting, the sealing cover cavity is filled with water through the water-argon inlet. The combination device is ingenious in structure, easy to operate, strong in adaptability, high in machining efficiency, capable of being used for alternating or continuous working of underwater welding and laser shot blasting and especially suitable for working under a special environment and defect repairing under the situation that the face where a defect exists is small in area.

Description

[0001] technical field [0002] The invention relates to the field of laser processing, in particular to a combined device integrating underwater laser welding and laser shot peening, which is especially suitable for working in special environments and repairing defects with a small surface area. Background technique [0003] In nuclear power plants, reactor pressure vessel internals are one of the most important components. According to reports, cracks caused by stress corrosion cracking (SCC) have been found in reactor internals installed in reactor (pressure) vessels in recent years. Most of the cracks occur in narrow parts, and at the same time, the radiation damage during work in nuclear power plants also makes it difficult to approach the construction target parts. In 2005, M. Tamura of Toshiba Corporation of Japan and others invented an underwater laser welding technology, by sending shielding gas (Ar) to the welding part to form a local cavity, and then using a laser...
