Example Embodiment

[0043] Example 1:

[0044] An electrode system for improving the performance of steel-aluminum dissimilar metal spot welding joints, wherein the positive electrode is a ring electrode, and the negative electrode is a flat electrode. Their overall appearance is a cylindrical structure, and the diameter of the end face The electrode end face of the flat electrode is a flat end face, and the end face of the ring electrode has an outer annular groove and an inner circular groove. The diameter of the spot welding electrode is 20mm, and the diameter of the spherical surface is 50mm. The distance from the axis to the flat end face is and Each position has an annular groove with a depth of 200um and a width of 0.8mm. Diameter of the central cone 6

[0045] During spot welding, the positive electrode contacts the surface of the aluminum plate, and the negative electrode contacts the surface of the high-strength steel, resulting in small indentations. At this time, the spot wel...

Abstract

The invention relates to an electrode system for improving performances of a steel-aluminum dissimilar metal resistance spot welding head. The system comprises a pair of positive electrode and negative electrode, which are arranged oppositely and have different end face structures; the end face of the positive electrode is a ball end face and is in contact with the surface of an aluminum part to be machined; two annular grooves, which are concentrically arranged and have different radiuses, are formed in the ball end face; and the end face of the negative electrode is a fat end face and is in contact with the surface of a steel part to be machined. Compared with the prior art, heat distribution of a steel-aluminum interface can be effectively improved, the growth of an IMC (Intermetallic Compound) on a connector interface is weakened, a stable button breaking mode is obtained, and the reliability of a connector in connection is improved.
