Friction stir welding method for lock bottom circular seam of carrier rocket storage tank

Abstract

The invention belongs to welding methods, and particularly relates to a friction stir welding method for a lock bottom circular seam of a carrier rocket storage tank. The method comprises the following steps that firstly, welded parts are transformed, welding leakage grooves are formed in a tank bottom fork-shaped ring, and the welding leakage grooves are formed in the bottommost portion of a tank bottom fork-shaped circular welding seam; secondly, the welded parts are in lap joint, and the welded tank bottom fork-shaped ring is in lap joint with a short shell to form the welding joint; thirdly, welding is carried out, and welding is carried out along the welding joint through the friction stir welding manner. The method has the obvious advantages that nearly defect-free welding can be achieved, the consistency and stability of the mechanical property of the joint are obviously improved, and compared with a fusion welding lock bottom joint, the performance of the lock bottom circular seam is improved by about 20 percent to 30 percent.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to a welding method, and in particular relates to a friction stir welding method for locking the bottom ring seam of a storage tank of a carrier rocket. Background technique [0002] The bottom lock ring seam of the launch vehicle tank is a ring seam connecting the front (rear) short shell of the tank and the fork ring at the bottom of the front (rear) tank. Compared with the type I butt ring seam of the storage tank, the structural form of the lock bottom ring seam joint is more special (such as figure 1 , 2 As shown), there is a plug joint between the short shell and the fork ring at the bottom of the box, and the front side of the weld is beveled. The bottom lock ring seam of the active series of launch vehicles in my country mainly adopts the fusion welding process to penetrate once. Although the existing bottom lock structure and fusion welding process can meet the product requirements, there are many problems in the botto...

Problems solved by technology

However, there will be some problems when the friction stir welding technology is directly applied to the existing storage tank bottom lock joint structure, which is mainly reflected in the following aspects: (1) From a structural point of view, the lock bottom joint includes a 1/2 lap joint, However, the stirring ability at the end of the friction stir welding tool used in engineering is weak at present, resulting in poor fluidity of the plastic metal at the root of the weld, so it is eas
