Problems solved by technology

However, in the friction stir welding technology, the problems of poor weld formation quality, many internal defects in the joint, and low mechanical properties caused by the welding of metals and thermoplastic polymer materials have not been effectively solved.
[0004]In particular, in the process of Friction Stir Lap Welding (FSLW), which relies on material migration at the lap interface to form an effective connection, the cone The flow-promoting stirring head represented by the shape needle drives the surrounding materials to make axial and radial three-dimensional flow, resulting in overflow of thermoplastic polymer material and poor forming quality of weld surface
However, the window of process parameters in the connection of metal and thermoplastic polymer materials is narrow, and the speed of the stirring head has a direct impact on heat input and material flow, and has a greater impact on joint formation
Excessively high speed can easily cause excessive heat input, resulting in the following problems: due to the poor compatibility of the two materials and the large difference in melting point, the viscoelastic polymer material overflows the

Abstract

The invention provides a stirring head for welding metal and a thermoplastic polymer and a welding method, and belongs to the field of new material connection. The stirring head is characterized by a concave shaft shoulder and an inverted-tower-shaped stirring needle with a multi-stage flow blocking circular truncated cone structure of the stirring head. The welding method is characterized in that friction stir lap welding is completed by heating the two sides of the upper surface of a welding seam through a resistance type auxiliary heating strip, and an auxiliary heat source can provide the effects of preheating before welding and slow cooling after welding for a welded plate. According to the stirring head for welding the metal and the thermoplastic polymer and the welding method, the flow choking appearance design of the stirring head can inhibit the overflow of a thermoplastic polymer material and improve the surface quality of the welding seam; and the welding auxiliary heating process for the metal and the thermoplastic polymer material is based on the thoughts of isothermal peak rotation speed reduction and stress reduction anti-pulling-off, the rotation speed of the stirring head is reduced under the condition that the same welding temperature is guaranteed, and therefore joint surface forming is improved, internal defects are eliminated, the interface structure is optimized, and the quality of a heterogeneous joint is comprehensively improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of friction stir welding, and relates to a stirring head for welding metal and thermoplastic polymer and a welding method. Background technique [0002] Thermoplastic polymer materials have high specific strength, high specific modulus and excellent corrosion resistance, so they have broad application prospects in aerospace, wind power, transportation and other fields. In some industrial manufacturing fields, the wide application of thermoplastic polymer materials inevitably leads to connection problems with traditional metal materials such as steel, aluminum, and magnesium alloys. At present, most of the connections between thermoplastic polymer materials and metals are adhesive bonding and mechanical connections (riveting and bolting), but problems such as joint aging or stress concentration are unavoidable. [0003] Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is a new type of solid-phase joining technology, which uses a...
