Embodiment 1

[0041] The thickness of the plate is 2.5mm, the distance between the shoulders of the stirring head is 10mm, the diameter of the stirring needle is 8mm, the ratio of the diameter of the stirring needle to the diameter of the shoulder is 0.8, the length of the stirring needle is 2.3mm, and the shoulder of the stirring head is selected. There are 3 counterclockwise vortex patterns, and 2 spiral grooves are arranged on the stirring needle.

[0042] The specific steps are as follows:

[0043] Step 1: Clean the 2.5mm thick aluminum alloy with alcohol on the surface of the metal plate and the oil stains and oxides on the interface interface that hinder the welding process, place the cleaned plate on the workbench, and pass the pressure plate and other tooling. Fix the plate on the workbench, and select a stirring head with a stirring needle length of 2.3mm according to the thickness of the plate to be welded.

Embodiment 2

[0048] The thickness of the selected plate and the size of the stirring needle are the same as those in Example 1.

[0049] The specific implementation steps are as follows:

[0050] Step 1: Clean the 2.5mm thick aluminum alloy with alcohol on the surface of the metal plate and the oil stains and oxides on the interface interface that hinder the welding process, place the cleaned plate on the workbench, and pass the pressure plate and other tooling. Fix the plate on the workbench, and select a stirring head with a stirring needle length of 2.3mm according to the thickness of the plate to be welded.

[0051] Step 2: Move the stirring head to the starting position of the welding seam, adjust the position of the stirring head so that the center of the stirring needle coincides with the center line of the welding seam, and stop when the stirring head moves downward until the end face of the stirring needle contacts the surface of the workpiece.

[0052] Step 3: Set the welding pa...

Abstract

The invention relates to the field of thin sheet aluminum alloy welding of a new energy automobile battery box, in particular to a stirring head for friction stir welding of a large gap thin sheet aluminum alloy and a welding technology of the stirring head. The stirring head gathers extruded metal from a shaft shoulder to the shaft shoulder center through shaft shoulder scroll patterns, the gathered metal is conveyed into a gap through spiral grooves in a stirring needle and in cooperation with corresponding technological parameters, and meanwhile, the total metal flow in a weld joint is increased and reduced through the arrangement of large diameter stirring needle to reduce the proportion of the gap in the weld joint, and welding of the large gap thin sheet aluminum alloy is realized finally.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of aluminum alloy welding of thin plates of battery boxes of new energy vehicles, in particular to a stirring head for friction stir welding of aluminum alloys of thin plates with large gaps and a welding process thereof. Background technique [0002] According to the principle of automobile engineering, the influence of the weight of the car body on the power consumption is considered. At present, the battery boxes of new energy vehicles are mainly made of aluminum alloys. After comprehensively considering various factors such as box structure, welding process, and post-weld deformation, friction stir welding was determined as the main welding method for the bottom plate of the box. Due to the influence of the machining accuracy of the bottom plate and the bending process of the frame, in the assembly process of the bottom plate and the frame, the matching gap between the bottom plate and the frame is often inconsis...
