Problems solved by technology

However, for the combination of copper terminals and aluminum wires, the traditional crimping method cannot solve the electrochemical reaction between the aluminum wires and copper terminals over time, and cannot solve the resulting mechanical properties of the copper terminals and aluminum wire joints and electrical performance degradation
Therefore, it cannot be applied in industrial production
[0005] The existing resistance welding technology is basically based on the welding of the same metal, mostly the welding of steel sheet metal parts, while the resistance welding technology of dissimilar metals is mostly used in the resistance welding of copper and aluminum pipes in air conditioners. For example, the utility model patent CN203147094U describes the copper-aluminum tube resistance welding joint, which is to insert the copper tube shrink into the aluminum tube, and then weld the copper and aluminum together by means of resistance welding. This method is only applicable to the welding of tu

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of wiring harnesses, and in particular relates to a joint for connecting copper terminals and aluminum wires in the wiring harness and a resistance welding method thereof. Background technique [0002] In the field of wire harnesses, 90% of wire harnesses currently use copper wires, because copper wires have good electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance and mechanical strength. However, as the price of copper increased, people began to look for copper substitutes to reduce costs. The price of aluminum is relatively low, and it also has excellent electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and plastic workability, and, in the case of conducting the same current, the weight of aluminum wire is about one-third of that of copper wire. Therefore, in traditional cars Under the premise of weight reduction and emission reduction, and new energy vehicles require to reduce vehicle weight, replacing...
