DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The following combination Figure 1-Figure 6 The present invention is described in further detail.

[0025] The embodiment of the present invention discloses a friction stir welding tool. Figure 1 The friction stir welding tooling includes a placement table 1 and a tooling unit 2. The placement table 1 is used to be installed on the body of the welding machine. The tooling unit 2 is arranged on the placement table 1. The tooling unit 2 is used to clamp and fix two heat sink components that need to be welded. Specifically, the number of tooling units 2 can be set as needed. In an embodiment of the present invention, two groups of tooling units 2 are arranged on the placement table 1.

[0026] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 Each set of tooling units 2 includes a horizontal clamping assembly 21, a pressure seat 22 and a pneumatic connecting rod assembly 23. The horizontal clamping assembly 21 is arranged on the placement table 1, and is used to clamp and fix the heat sink component located below; the pressure seat 22 is movably arranged on the placement table 1, and is used to press the heat sink component located above onto the heat sink component located below; the pneumatic connecting rod assembly 23 is arranged on the placement table 1, and is used to adjust the pressure seat 22 to press or loosen the heat sink component located above.

[0027] When in use, first place the two heat sink components that have been embedded in each other up and down on the required position of the placement table 1, then clamp and fix the heat sink component located at the bottom through the horizontal clamping assembly 21, and then adjust the pressure seat 22 through the pneumatic connecting rod assembly 23 to press the heat sink component located at the top onto the heat sink component located at the bottom, and then spot weld the embedded parts of the two heat sink components embedded in each other up and down through the welding head of the stir friction welding, and then adjust the pressure seat 22 through the pneumatic connecting rod assembly 23 to loosen the heat sink component located at the top to make way for the welding head of the friction welding, and then the two heat sink components embedded in each other up and down can be welded circumferentially through the welding head of the stir friction welding. Compared with the threaded fixing method, the state of the pressure seat 22 is adjusted by the pneumatic connecting rod assembly 23 in a pneumatic manner, which is simple and quick, saves operation time, and helps to improve the welding efficiency of the heat sink components.

[0028] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3In order to facilitate the clamping and fixing of the heat sink component located below, the horizontal clamping assembly 21 includes a fixed limit seat 211, a clamping limit seat 212 and a pneumatic adjustment member 213. The fixed limit seat 211 is fixed to the placement table 1 by bolts. The placement table 1 is provided with a sliding groove 20. The clamping limit seat 212 is slidably set in the sliding groove 20. The sliding direction of the clamping limit seat 212 is set in the horizontal direction. The fixed limit seat 211 and the clamping limit seat 212 are arranged opposite to each other. The heat sink component is placed between the fixed limit seat 211 and the clamping limit seat 212. Specifically, the sliding direction of the clamping limit seat 212 is parallel to the arrangement direction of the clamping limit seat 212 and the fixed limit seat 211. The pneumatic adjustment member 213 is set on the placement table 1. The pneumatic adjustment member 213 is used to adjust the clamping limit seat 212 to slide in the direction close to or away from the fixed limit seat 211.

[0029] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 In order to facilitate the adjustment of the clamping limit seat 212 to slide towards or away from the fixed limit seat 211, the pneumatic adjustment member 213 includes a second pneumatic rod 2131 and a single-sided inclined block 2132. The second pneumatic rod 2131 is fixedly embedded in the placement table 1, and the extension direction of the second pneumatic rod 2131 is set in the vertical direction. The single-sided inclined block 2132 is fixed on the movable end of the second pneumatic rod 2131. The single-sided inclined block 2132 is slidably penetrated in the sliding groove 20, and the single-sided inclined block 2132 is located on the side of the clamping limit seat 212 away from the fixed limit seat 211. The side of the single-sided inclined block 2132 close to the clamping limit seat 212 is an inclined surface, and the inclined surface close to the side of the clamping limit seat 212 is inclined upward, and the clamping limit seat 212 and the inclined surface of the single-sided inclined block 2132 are slidably matched.

[0030] When it is necessary to drive the clamping limit seat 212 to slide in the direction close to the fixed limit seat 211, the second pneumatic rod 2131 is started to drive the single-sided inclined block 2132 to move downward. Since the inclined surface of the single-sided inclined block 2132 slides with the clamping limit seat 212, the single-sided inclined block 2132 slides in the direction close to the fixed limit seat 211 during the downward movement, thereby helping to clamp the heat sink component located below during welding; when it is necessary to drive the clamping limit seat 212 to slide in the direction away from the fixed limit seat 211, the second pneumatic rod 2131 is started to drive the single-sided inclined block 2132 to move upward. At this time, the single-sided inclined block 2132 pulls the clamping limit seat 212 to slide in the direction away from the fixed limit seat 211 during the upward movement, which helps to loosen the clamping limit seat 212 and facilitate the removal of the heat sink component.

[0031] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3In order to help guide the sliding of the single-sided inclined block 2132, a guide block 3 is fixedly arranged in the sliding groove 20. The guide block 3 is located on the side of the single-sided inclined block 2132 away from the clamping limit seat 212, and the side plane of the single-sided inclined block 2132 away from the clamping limit seat 212 is slidably matched with the guide block 3.

[0032] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 , each tooling unit 2 is provided with two groups of horizontal clamping components 21, wherein the arrangement direction of the fixed limit seat 211 and the clamping limit seat 212 in one group of horizontal clamping components 21 is perpendicular to the arrangement direction of the fixed limit seat 211 and the clamping limit seat 212 in the other group of horizontal clamping components 21, and the sliding groove 20 corresponds to the clamping limit seat 212 one by one. In order to adapt to the rectangular heat sink component, in the embodiment of the present invention, the length of the fixed limit seat 211 of one group of horizontal clamping components 21 is greater than the length of the fixed limit seat 211 in the other group of horizontal clamping components 21, so that the fixed limit seat 211 and the clamping limit seat 212 in the two tooling units 2 are located on the four sides of the rectangular heat sink component. Designing the horizontal clamping components 21 of each group of tooling units 2 into two groups helps to improve the clamping and fixing effect of the heat sink component.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In order to improve the pressing effect of the heat sink component located at the top during welding, a plurality of pressure seats 22 are provided. In the embodiment of the present invention, four pressure seats 22 are provided, and the pneumatic connecting rod assemblies 23 correspond to the pressure seats 22 one by one. The four pressure seats 22 are located at the four corners of the heat sink component, so that the pressure seats 22 are located between adjacent fixed limit seats 211, between adjacent clamping limit seats 212, or between adjacent fixed limit seats 211 and clamping limit seats 212.

[0034] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2In order to facilitate the adjustment of the pressure seat 22 to tighten or loosen the heat sink component located above during welding, the pneumatic connecting rod assembly 23 includes a first pneumatic rod 231 and a connecting rod 232. The first pneumatic rod 231 is fixedly embedded in the placement table 1, and the extension direction of the first pneumatic rod 231 is set in the vertical direction. The side of the pressure seat 22 away from the heat sink component is hinged on the movable end of the corresponding first pneumatic rod 231. The hinge axis of the pressure seat 22 is perpendicular to the extension direction of the first pneumatic rod 231. The connecting rod 232 is located on the side of the corresponding first pneumatic rod 231 close to the heat sink component. One end of the connecting rod 232 is hinged on the placement table 1, and the other end is hinged at the middle part of the pressure seat 22. The hinge axis of the connecting rod 232 is parallel to the hinge axis of the corresponding pressure seat 22. The connecting rod 232 is located below the corresponding pressure seat 22. When the pressure seat 22 is in a horizontal state, the connecting rod 232 is in a vertical state. In order to facilitate the operation of the operator, the placement table 1 is provided with operating control levers for controlling the operation of the first pneumatic rod 231 and the second pneumatic rod 2131 .

[0035] When it is necessary to adjust the pressure seat 22 to press on the heat sink component located above during welding, start the first pneumatic rod 231, which drives the pressure seat 22 to move up away from the side of the heat sink component, and with the cooperation of the corresponding connecting rod 232, the side of the pressure seat 22 close to the heat sink component rotates downward to a horizontal state, thereby achieving the pressure and fixation of the heat sink component located above during welding by the pressure seat 22; when it is necessary to loosen the heat sink component, start the first pneumatic rod 231, which moves downward to pull the side of the pressure seat 22 away from the heat sink component to rotate downward, so that with the cooperation of the connecting rod 232, the end of the pressure seat 22 abutting against the heat sink component is tilted upward, thereby disengaging from the heat sink component located above during welding, thereby achieving rapid fixation or loosening of the heat sink component, which helps to improve welding efficiency.

[0036] Reference Figure 2 To help save materials, the upper surface of the press seat 22 near one end of the heat sink component is an inclined surface, and the distance from the inclined surface to the bottom wall of the press seat 22 decreases in the direction away from the corresponding first pneumatic rod 231.

[0037] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 A gas cylinder 4 is fixedly arranged on the fixed limit seat 211 with a larger length in each set of tooling units 2.

An abutting inclined surface is provided on the side of the rotating column 9 away from the sliding rod 8. A connecting plate 25 is fixed on the moving end of the first pneumatic rod 231 close to the rotating column 9. The abutting rod 10 is fixed on the corresponding connecting plate 25. The abutting rod 10 is arranged in a horizontal direction and extends in the direction of the rotating column 9 on the corresponding side.

The plane of the support plate 11 is perpendicular to the rotation axis of the corresponding rotating column 9. A through hole 19 is provided on the support plate 11 for the corresponding rotating column 9 to pass through; the rotating ring 12 is rotatably arranged on the support plate 11, and the rotating ring 12 is located on the side of the corresponding support plate 11 close to the abutment rod 10.

The coil spring 13 is sleeved outside the rotating ring 12, and one end of the inner ring of the coil spring 13 is fixed on the outer wall of the corresponding rotating ring 12, and one end of the outer ring is fixed on the fixing rod 14, so that when the first pneumatic rod 231 drives the fixing rod 14 to move up and down, the fixing rod 14 can drive one end of the outer ring of the coil spring 13 to change its displacement. When the fixing rod 14 is driven by the first pneumatic rod 231 from the pressure seat 22 (refer to Figure 2 ) is moved from the state of pressing the heat sink component to the state of releasing the heat sink component from the press seat 22 or from the press seat 22 (refer to Figure 2 ) When the state of loosening the heat sink component moves to the state of pressing the heat sink component by the pressure seat 22, the fixing rod 14 drives one end of the coil spring 13 to displace and change so that the coil spring 13 drives the rotating ring 12 to rotate by 180 degrees.

The absorption force between the first magnet and the second magnet 17 is greater than twice the elastic force of the first spring 16. The connecting rod 18 is U-shaped, and the connecting rod 18 will be aligned with the upper and lower sides of the same swivel 12. The locking rods 15 are fixedly connected.

[0045] In the initial state, the moving end of the first pneumatic rod 231 is in a retracted state, at which time the abutting rod 10 on the connecting plate 25 is aligned with the locking rod 15 on the lower side of the rotating ring 12, and the first magnet is adsorbed and matched with the second magnet 17 on the aligned locking rod 15, so that the locking block 27 is disengaged from the corresponding gear ring 28, and the abutting inclined surface of the rotating column 9 is tilted upward in the direction away from the connecting tube 29, and the coil spring 13 is in a natural state; then the moving end of the first pneumatic rod 231 moves upward to make the pressure seat 22 press the heat sink component located above, and the moving end of the first pneumatic rod 231 drives the abutting rod 10 and the fixed rod 14 to move upward through the connecting plate 25, so that the first magnet on the abutting rod 10 is disengaged from the second magnet 17, and under the pulling of the first spring 16 The lower locking rod 15 drives the locking block 27 to approach the swivel 12, so that the locking block 27 is meshed with the corresponding gear ring 28 to achieve the limitation of the swivel 12; as the fixing rod 14 moves upward, the fixing rod 14 gradually pulls the coil spring 13 to tighten the coil spring 13. Since the swivel 12 cannot rotate, the coil spring 13 is deformed, and the abutment rod 10 and the abutment inclined surface of the corresponding rotating column 9 slide relative to each other. The abutment inclined surface abuts the rotating column 9 and the sliding rod 8 to slide toward the connecting pipe 29, so that the piston block 7 approaches the connecting pipe 29, the second spring 24 is stretched, and the piston block 7 pushes out the gas, so that the nozzle 5 blows air toward the surface of the heat sink component, thereby helping to blow off impurities on the surface of the heat sink component and improving the welding quality. Then the abutment rod 10 and the abutment inclined surface of the rotating column 9 are disengaged. As the abutment force decreases, the sliding rod 8 moves toward the direction away from the connecting tube 29 under the pulling force of the second spring 24 to reset. Then the abutment rod 10 moves to the locking rod 15 aligned with the upper side of the swivel 12. The locking block 27 and the gear ring 28 are disengaged through the adsorption force between the first magnet and the aligned second magnet 17. At this time, due to the deformation of the coil spring 13, the coil spring 13 drives the swivel 12 to rotate. The rotation of the swivel 12 drives the corresponding rotating column 9 to rotate, so that the rotating column 9 rotates 180 degrees. At this time, the abutment inclined surface on the rotating column 9 is tilted downward away from the side of the sliding rod 8, and the coil spring 13 returns to its natural state again.

[0046] When the movable end of the first pneumatic rod 231 moves downward to make the pressure seat 22 release the heat sink component located above during welding, the movable end of the first pneumatic rod 231 drives the abutting rod 10 and the fixed rod 14 to move downward through the connecting plate 25, so that the first magnet on the abutting rod 10 is disengaged from the second magnet 17, and the locking rod 15 drives the locking block 27 to approach the rotating ring 12 under the pulling of the first spring 16, so that the locking block 27 is engaged with the corresponding gear ring 28 to achieve the limitation of the rotating ring 12; as the fixed rod 14 moves downward, the fixed rod 14 drives the coil spring 13 to loosen the coil spring 13. Since the rotating ring 12 cannot rotate, the coil spring 13 is deformed, and the abutting inclined surface of the abutting rod 10 and the corresponding rotating column 9 continue to slide relative to each other, and the rotating column 9 and the sliding rod 8 slide toward the direction close to the connecting pipe 29 through the abutting inclined surface, so that the piston block 7 pushes out the gas, so that the nozzle 5 blows air to the surface of the heat sink component, which helps to cool the welding position and improve the welding quality. Then the abutment rod 10 disengages from the abutment slope of the rotating column 9. As the abutment force decreases, the sliding rod 8 moves in a direction away from the connecting tube 29 under the pulling force of the second spring 24 to reset. Then the abutment rod 10 moves to align with the locking rod 15 on the lower side of the swivel 12. The locking block 27 is disengaged from the gear ring 28 through the adsorption force between the first magnet and the aligned second magnet 17. At this time, due to the deformation of the coil spring 13, the coil spring 13 drives the swivel 12 to rotate. The rotation of the swivel 12 drives the corresponding rotating column 9 to rotate, so that the rotating column 9 rotates 180 degrees. The abutment slope on the rotating column 9 tilts upward, and the coil spring 13 returns to its natural state again.

[0047] The implementation principle of the embodiment of the present invention is: when in use, first place the two heat sink components that have been embedded up and down on the placement table 1, the heat sink components are located between the clamping limit seat 212 and the corresponding fixed limit seat 211, and the adjacent two sides of the heat sink component located below are respectively abutted against the two fixed limit seats 211 of the tooling unit 2, and then the second pneumatic rod 2131 is started to drive the single-sided bevel block 2132 to move downward. Since the inclined surface of the single-sided bevel block 2132 slides with the corresponding clamping limit seat 212, the single-sided bevel block 2132 slides toward the corresponding fixed limit seat 211 through the inclined surface abutting the clamping limit seat 212 during the downward movement process, so that the clamping limit seat 212 presses the heat sink component located below during welding against the corresponding fixed limit seat 211.

[0048] Then the first pneumatic rod 231 is started, and the moving end of the first pneumatic rod 231 moves upward, and the first pneumatic rod 231 drives the pressure seat 22 to move upward away from the side of the heat sink component. With the cooperation of the connecting rod 232, the side of the pressure seat 22 close to the heat sink component rotates downward to a horizontal state, thereby realizing the pressure seat 22 to press and fix the heat sink component located above. During the upward movement of the moving end of the first pneumatic rod 231, the transmission assembly drives the sliding rod 8 to drive the corresponding piston block 7 to slide toward the direction of the connecting pipe 29. The wind sprayed from the nozzle 5 helps to blow off impurities on the surface of the heat sink component and improve the welding quality. Until the moving end of the first pneumatic rod 231 moves to the upper limit position, the abutment rod 10 disengages from the sliding rod 8, and the sliding rod 8 is reset under the action of the second spring 24.

[0049] Then, the friction stir welding head is used to spot weld the connection between the two heat sink components that are embedded in the upper and lower parts, and then the first pneumatic rod 231 is started. The moving end of the first pneumatic rod 231 moves downward to pull the pressure seat 22 away from the side of the heat sink component and rotates downward. Under the cooperation of the connecting rod 232, the pressure seat 22 abuts against the end of the heat sink component and tilts upward, and the pressure seat 22 disengages from the heat sink component, which can quickly realize the loosening of the heat sink component to make way. At the same time, during the downward movement of the moving end of the first pneumatic rod 231, the transmission assembly drives the sliding rod 8 to drive the corresponding piston block 7 to slide again in the direction close to the connecting pipe 29, and the air sprayed by the nozzle 5 helps to cool the spot welding position and improve the welding quality; finally, the friction stir welding welding head can be used to weld the embedded parts of the two heat sink components embedded in the upper and lower parts along the circumferential direction. Compared with the threaded fixing method, the heat sink component is fixed or loosened by pneumatic drive, which is simple and fast, saves operation time, and helps to improve the welding efficiency of the heat sink component.

[0050] After the welding of the two heat sink components is completed, the second pneumatic rod 2131 is started to drive the single-sided bevel block 2132 to move upward, so that the single-sided bevel block 2132 pulls the clamping limit seat 212 through its own inclined surface to slide in the direction away from the corresponding fixed limit seat 211, thereby helping to loosen the heat sink component located below during welding, facilitating the removal of the heat sink component, and greatly speeding up the installation and disassembly of the heat sink component.

[0051] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
