AI Technical Summary
During the welding process of stainless steel rail vehicles, there is a problem that the gap between the assembled stainless steel thin plates is too large, exceeding the standard gap, which leads to material waste and extended construction period.
The process employs an arc-interrupting back-welding technique. This involves beveling and blunting the edges of the stainless steel sheet, adjusting the gas shielded welding parameters, and using a DC reverse polarity method to control the welding environment. Specific welding wire materials and shielding gases are used. The welding sequence includes arc initiation, observation of the molten pool, and arc interruption.
It enables direct welding of stainless steel sheets with a thickness of 3-4mm, avoiding the waste of re-feeding materials and on-site mixing, and shortening the construction cycle.

Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of stainless steel sheet welding of rail vehicles, and particularly relates to a rail vehicle stainless steel sheet wide gap welding process method based on arc breaking and rewelding. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the body and each major component of a stainless steel rail vehicle, especially the major component of the underframe, many structures adopt 3-4mm stainless steel sheets. In the process of assembling and butt welding of the material pieces, in order to ensure the overall size of the body and the major component, the gap between the welding joints of the assembled material pieces often exceeds the standard gap. The main method to solve this problem is to lengthen the material pieces, re-feed, or lengthen the material pieces in advance, and cut and adjust the gap between the welding joints on site during the construction process. Such a welding process not only wastes materials, but also increases the labor intensity.
[0003] Therefore, based on the above technical problems, the technical personnel in the field urgently need to develop a rail vehicle stainless steel sheet wide gap welding process method based on arc breaking and rewelding. SUMMARY
[0004] The purpose of the present application is to provide a rail vehicle stainless steel sheet wide gap welding process method based on arc breaking and rewelding, which mainly solves the problem that the welding can be directly completed when the gap between the assembled stainless steel 3-4mm sheets is large.
[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present application provides the following technical scheme:
[0006] The rail vehicle stainless steel sheet wide gap welding process method based on arc breaking and rewelding mainly includes the following steps:
[0007] S1, control the gap between the assembled stainless steel sheets, and perform opening groove processing and edge blunting processing on one side of the stainless steel sheet of the welding joint;
[0008] S2, adjust the welding parameters of the gas shielded welding;
[0009] S3, use arc breaking and rewelding to weld the stainless steel sheet.
[0010] Further, in the step S1, the thickness of the stainless steel sheet is 3-4mm;
[0011] The control of the gap between the assembled stainless steel sheets is 4-6mm;
[0012] The plate on one side of the welding joint is provided with a half V-shaped groove, and the opening angle of the groove is 45°. The bottom of the plate provided with the half V-shaped groove is provided with an edge, and the width of the edge is 0.5-1mm.
[0013] Furthermore, the misalignment between the two stainless steel sheet assemblies shall not exceed 0.5mm.
[0014] Furthermore, in step S2, the control of welding parameters for gas shielded welding mainly includes:
[0015] The welding environment temperature for the stainless steel sheet assembly is not lower than 5°C, and there is no draft at the welding site.
[0016] The gas shielded welding uses a welding current of 200~220A, a welding voltage of 20~25V, a welding speed of 40~50cm / min, and adopts a DC reverse polarity method, jet transfer and non-pulse current.
[0017] The shielding gas for the gas shielded welding consists of 97% Ar and 3% O2, with a gas flow rate of 18 L / min.
[0018] The welding wire used in the gas shielded welding is made of 309LSi and has a diameter of 1.0 mm.
[0019] Furthermore, the gas-shielded welding torch is angled at 80° to the weld bead for welding stainless steel sheets.
[0020] Furthermore, the welding sequence in step S3 mainly includes:
[0021] S301. First, the arc is started on the side of the stainless steel sheet without a blunt edge, and the arc is pulled laterally to the side of the half-V bevel. After the molten pool of deposited metal is formed, the welding gun is lifted to cut off the arc.
[0022] S302. Observe the color of the molten pool. When the molten iron changes from dark red to dark red, start arc welding at the rear 1 / 3 of the previous deposited metal. Cut off the arc after the deposited metal forms a molten pool.
[0023] S303. Repeat steps S301 and S302 until the welding of the entire weld joint is completed.
[0024] In the above technical solution, the present invention provides a wide-gap welding process for stainless steel thin plates for rail vehicles based on arc-interrupted back welding, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0025] The welding process of this invention can solve the problem of directly completing welding when encountering stainless steel thin plates with a thickness of 3-4mm and a large gap between the assembly parts. It also solves the problems in the prior art where the gap between the assembly parts is large and exceeds the standard gap, resulting in waste caused by re-feeding materials and increased workload due to the extension of the cycle caused by on-site preparation of longer materials.
