Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of spot welding level inspection of gold-tin cover plates, and particularly relates to a spot welding inspection method and device, an electronic device, and a storage medium. BACKGROUND

[0002] Currently, a spot welding process is used to realize solder prepositioning of a gold-tin cover plate, that is, solder is first horizontally placed on the surface of the cover plate, and then local heating is performed on the solder at positions such as four corners of the solder through resistance heating, laser heating, ultrasonic resonance, and the like. After the solder is locally melted, the solder is fused to the surface of the cover plate to form a welding spot, and solder prepositioning is realized. This method can greatly improve the convenience of cover plate sealing.

[0003] However, in actual application, if a leakage phenomenon occurs at the spot welding position after the cover plate is sealed, it is impossible to determine whether the fault reason is the solder itself or the spot welding process level. Moreover, in the current factory entry test of the cover plate, the detection standard for the spot welding level still stays in the aspect of appearance detection, such as observing the roundness of the welding spot, the size consistency of the welding spot, and whether the welding spot falls off or not. However, for the welding spot process problem causing the leakage phenomenon of the cover plate, it is impossible to determine the problem through the above appearance detection. SUMMARY

[0004] The embodiments of the application provide a welding inspection method and device, an electronic device, and a storage medium to solve the problem that it is difficult to determine the reason for the leakage of a gold-tin cover plate after sealing.

If the solder color at the solder joint is bright, the solder has not changed color, the solder joint is smooth and flat, and there is no abnormal protrusion on the solder joint, then the spot welding process level is judged to be qualified.

[0012] In combination with the first aspect, in some embodiments, inputting the high-magnification image into the solder joint analysis model to obtain the detection result of the spot welding process level of the gold-tin cover plate includes: preprocessing the high-magnification image, wherein the preprocessing includes adjusting the image size to a preset size and / or image normalization; inputting the preprocessed high-magnification image into the solder joint analysis model to obtain the detection result of the spot welding process level of the gold-tin cover plate.

However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present application may be implemented in other embodiments without these specific details.

Similarly, the phrase "if it is determined" or "if [described condition or event] is detected" can be interpreted as meaning "upon determination" or "in response to determining" or "upon detection of [described condition or event]" or "in response to detecting [described condition or event]," depending on the context.

[0036] In addition, in the description of the present application specification and the appended claims, the terms "first", "second", "third", etc. are only used to distinguish the descriptions and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0037] Reference within the specification of this application to "one embodiment" or "some embodiments" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment is included in at least one embodiment of the application. The appearances of the phrase "in one embodiment" or "in some embodiments" in various places within specifications are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment, however, are meant to signify that "one or more, but not all embodiments" of the application so described are contemplated to develop a fully enabled application. The terms "including," "comprising," "having," and variations thereof, mean "including but not limited to," unless expressly specified otherwise.

[0038] In the related art, the way of pre-placing gold-tin solder on the cover plate through the spot welding process greatly improves the convenience of the cover plate sealing, but at the same time introduces new reliability risks. In actual packaging application process, if the cover plate leaks after sealing, it is usually difficult to effectively locate the fault cause as the solder itself or the spot welding process level, because the cover plate has been sealed and the internal welding point situation cannot be specifically investigated.

[0039] Exemplary, Figure 1 The figure shows the morphology of the welding spot at the corner of the gold-tin solder of the cover plate after spot welding treatment in an embodiment of the application under 40 times microscope, Figure 2 The figure shows the morphology of the welding spot at the corner of the gold-tin solder of the cover plate after spot welding treatment in an embodiment of the application under 200 times microscope.

[0040] Regarding the spot welding process, the spot welding process level is affected by the power size and heating time of the spot welding equipment. Specifically, the smaller the power of the spot welding equipment and the shorter the heating time, the lower the reliability risk of the welding spot, that is, the smaller the risk of leakage after sealing, but the welding spot will also be smaller, and the smaller the welding spot, the worse the firmness of the welding spot, and the solder is more likely to fall off; the larger the power of the spot welding equipment and the longer the heating time, the larger the welding spot, so the firmness of the solder is better, but at this time the reliability risk of the welding spot will be higher, that is, the risk of leakage after sealing is larger. Therefore, the spot welding process level is closely related to the leakage problem after the cover plate is sealed, but the detection standard of the current spot welding process level still stays in the appearance aspect, such as welding spot roundness inspection, welding spot size consistency inspection and welding spot falling off inspection. These detection items cannot determine whether the cover plate will have the problem of leakage after sealing, therefore, at present, a more effective spot welding process level inspection method is urgently needed to inspect whether the cover plate after spot welding treatment has the risk of leakage after sealing, and to solve the problem that the cause of the leakage problem of the gold-tin cover plate after sealing is difficult to locate.

[0041] Based on the above problems, an embodiment of the present application provides a spot welding inspection method, which performs variable temperature heating treatment on the gold-tin cover plate under preset packaging process conditions, and then determines whether the spot welding process level is qualified based on the morphology of the solder. In this way, it is possible to determine whether the spot welding process level of the gold-tin cover plate is qualified before packaging and use, and then help to check whether the air leakage problem after the gold-tin cover plate is sealed is caused by the spot welding process level.

[0042] Optionally, Figure 3 This is a schematic flow chart of a spot welding inspection method provided in one embodiment of the present application, with reference to Figure 3 , the spot welding inspection method is described in detail as follows:

[0043] S101, placing the gold-tin cover plate after spot welding horizontally into a heating device, and controlling the heating device to perform variable temperature heating on the gold-tin cover plate according to preset packaging process conditions.

[0044] The gold-tin cover plate is placed with the solder surface facing upwards.

[0045] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned gold-tin cover plates can be a preset number of products from the same batch of gold-tin cover plates from the same manufacturer, which are used as random inspection samples for spot welding process level inspection. The quality of the spot welding process level of the preset number of random inspection samples can reflect the overall quality of the spot welding process level of the batch of gold-tin cover plates.

[0046] In some embodiments, the heating device can be a heater, a tubular brazing furnace, a chain brazing furnace, a reflow oven, or a vacuum furnace, or other heating equipment capable of performing packaging processing. During the actual inspection process, the heating device used for inspection can be determined based on the packaging equipment model of the user of the current batch of gold-tin cover plates.

[0047] In the embodiments of the present application, to ensure that the heating process of the AuSn cover plate is consistent with the actual sealing test process and to prevent the generation of excess oxides, a protective gas can be introduced into the heating device before the heating device begins, and the protective gas can be continuously introduced during the variable temperature heating process. For example, the protective gas can be nitrogen.

[0048] In some embodiments, the preset packaging process conditions may include a first preset temperature range, a second preset temperature range, a third preset temperature range, a first preset duration, and a second preset duration. The maximum value of the first preset temperature range is less than the minimum value of the second preset temperature range, the maximum value of the third preset temperature range is less than the minimum value of the first preset temperature range, and the first preset duration is less than or equal to the second preset duration.

[0049] Exemplarily, in one possible implementation, the first preset temperature range can be 230°C to 270°C, the second preset temperature range can be 310°C to 350°C, the third preset temperature range can be less than 100°C, the first preset time length can be 2min to 5min, and the second preset time length can be 2min to 10min.

[0050] In some embodiments, the above step S101 of controlling the heating device to perform variable temperature heating on the AuSn cover plate according to the preset packaging process conditions may specifically include the following steps S201 to S203:

[0051] S201, raising the temperature of the heating device to a first preset temperature range, heating the gold-tin cover plate, and keeping the temperature for a first preset time.

[0052] S202, after keeping the temperature for the first preset time, raising the temperature of the heating device to a second preset temperature range, heating the gold-tin cover plate, and keeping the temperature for the second preset time.

[0053] S203, after keeping the temperature for the second preset time, cool the heating device to a third preset temperature range according to a preset cooling rate.

[0054] S102, after the variable temperature heating is completed, the gold-tin cover plate is taken out from the heating device and cooled to a preset temperature.

[0055] In other embodiments, the above-mentioned packaging process conditions may be the packaging process conditions of the user of the current batch of gold-tin cover plates, which can ensure that the test conditions during the inspection process are the same as the test conditions during actual packaging use, thereby making the inspection results more accurate.

[0056] In some embodiments, the preset temperature may be room temperature. For example, after the variable temperature heating is completed, the AuSn cover plate may be removed from the heating device and cooled to room temperature (25 degrees Celsius).

[0057] S103 , after the AuSn cover plate is cooled to a preset temperature, the morphology of the solder of the AuSn cover plate is obtained.

[0058] In some embodiments, obtaining the morphology of the solder of the gold-tin cover plate in step S103 may include obtaining a high-magnification image of the solder of the gold-tin cover plate under a microscope, wherein the high-magnification image includes morphology information of the solder of the gold-tin cover plate.

[0059] In other embodiments, obtaining the morphology of the solder of the gold-tin cover plate in the above step S103 may include: taking a cover plate image of the solder of the gold-tin cover plate by a camera device, and the cover plate image includes morphology information of the solder of the gold-tin cover plate.

[0060] S104, determining whether the spot welding process level of the gold-tin cover plate is qualified based on the morphology of the solder portion of the gold-tin cover plate.

[0061] In some embodiments, when spot welding a gold-tin cover plate, local high-temperature heating causes the gold-tin solder at the soldering point to undergo a chemical reaction, oxidizing it into gold-tin oxides. The melting point of these gold-tin oxides is generally higher than that of the Au80Sn20 alloy. When the spot welding heating time is too long, a large amount of gold-tin oxides is easily generated, causing the proportion of gold-tin oxides to be too large; when the spot welding power is too high, gold-tin oxides with extremely high melting points are easily generated. When the proportion of these gold-tin oxides is too large, or when gold-tin oxides with extremely high melting points are generated, the airtightness of the gold-tin cover plate will eventually be affected. In the embodiments of the present application, this phenomenon that affects the airtightness of the cover plate can be determined as a change in solder joint properties.

[0062] In the above step S104, whether the spot welding process level of the gold-tin cover plate is qualified is determined based on the morphology of the solder part of the gold-tin cover plate. That is, based on the morphology of the solder part of the gold-tin cover plate, it is judged whether there is solder joint deformation of the gold-tin cover plate subjected to variable temperature heating under the packaging process conditions. If solder joint deformation is detected, the spot welding process level of the gold-tin cover plate is unqualified. If solder joint deformation is detected, the spot welding process level of the gold-tin cover plate is qualified.

[0063] In some embodiments, the specific implementation process of the above step S104 may include: inputting the above high-magnification image into a solder joint analysis model to obtain a test result of the spot welding process level of the gold-tin cover plate. The input data of the solder joint analysis model is an image containing morphological information of the solder portion of the cover plate, and the output data of the solder joint analysis model is a test result of whether the spot welding process level is qualified.

[0064] Optionally, the above-mentioned welding spot analysis model may include an image processing unit and a spot welding judgment unit.

[0065] The image processing unit determines the color of the solder and the state of the solder joints at the solder joints of the cover plate based on an image containing topographic information of the solder joints of the cover plate. The spot welding judgment unit determines, based on the color of the solder at the solder joints of the cover plate, whether the solder color at the solder joints is bright and whether the solder has changed color. Furthermore, based on the state of the solder joints, the unit determines whether the solder joints are smooth and flat and whether they have any unusual protrusions. If the solder color at the solder joints is bright, the solder has not changed color, the solder joints are smooth and flat, and there are no unusual protrusions, the spot welding process is judged to be qualified.

[0066] It should be noted that the above-mentioned cover plate includes but is not limited to a gold-tin cover plate.

[0067] In some embodiments, the solder color determined by the image processing unit can include at least one of gray, silver white, black, and blue, and other conventional solder colors are not listed here. When the solder color includes black or blue, it can be determined that the solder has changed color. The change in solder color can reflect that too much gold-tin oxide or gold-tin oxide with a very high melting point is generated during spot welding, resulting in incomplete melting of the solder when heated under packaging process conditions, and the appearance of gold-tin oxide on the surface of the solder.

[0068] Similarly, the above-mentioned solder color, smooth and flat weld, and no unusual protrusions on the weld, etc. can reflect that the processing conditions during spot welding are reasonable and do not produce too much or gold-tin oxide with a very high melting point.

[0069] Further, the above-mentioned inputting the high-magnification image into the weld analysis model to obtain the detection result of the spot welding process level of the gold-tin cover plate can further include steps S301 to S302:

[0070] S301, pre-processing the high-magnification image, which can include adjusting the image size to a predetermined size and / or image normalization.

[0071] S302, inputting the pre-processed high-magnification image into the weld analysis model to obtain the detection result of the spot welding process level of the gold-tin cover plate.

[0072] Here, the embodiment can adjust the size of the image input into the weld analysis model based on actual conditions, and can also normalize the image input into the weld analysis model, thereby meeting different application needs.

[0073] In addition, after obtaining the above-mentioned high-magnification image, when determining whether the spot welding process level of the gold-tin cover plate is qualified according to the above-mentioned high-magnification image, the above-mentioned high-magnification image can also be compared with a pre-stored high-magnification image, which is a morphology image of the solder of the gold-tin cover plate obtained by a microscope when the spot welding process level of the gold-tin cover plate is qualified, and then, according to the comparison result, it is determined whether the spot welding process level of the gold-tin cover plate is qualified. For example, the embodiment can compare the similarity of the above-mentioned high-magnification image and the pre-stored high-magnification image, and when the similarity obtained by comparison is greater than a pre-set similarity threshold, it is determined that the spot welding process level of the above-mentioned gold-tin cover plate is qualified. The pre-set similarity threshold can be set according to actual conditions, for example, 95%.

[0074] Figure 4 An image of a gold-tin cover plate after spot welding processing provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown, referring to FIG. 1. Figure 4 There is a weld at each corner of the gold-tin cover plate. Figure 5 An image of a gold-tin cover plate whose spot welding inspection process level is qualified after inspection provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown, referring to FIG. 2.Figure 5 After the gold-tin cover plate is heated and melted at variable temperatures, the solder is bright in color, the solder joints are smooth and flat, and there are no unusual protrusions on the solder joints. Since the color is not reflected in the attached drawings, the above does not directly state that the solder has not changed color. In the actual test results, the solder of the gold-tin cover plate has neither turned black nor bluish, that is, the solder has not changed color. Figure 6 A schematic diagram of an embodiment of the present application showing that the solder joints of the gold-tin cover plate have unusual protrusions after variable temperature heating, as shown in FIG. Figure 6 As shown, solder bumps 610, 620, and 630 are all abnormal bumps. These abnormal bumps are gold-tin oxides that are not easily melted under packaging process conditions, which can reflect that the spot welding process level of the gold-tin cover plate is unqualified.

[0075] In some embodiments, in order to more clearly distinguish the morphological changes at the solder of the gold-tin cover plate that has been heated under packaging process conditions, thereby making the inspection results more accurate, before the above-mentioned step S101, the above-mentioned spot welding inspection method may further include: obtaining an initial cover plate image of the gold-tin cover plate after spot welding treatment.

[0076] In some embodiments, the image processing unit can also determine the solder state at the solder of the cover plate based on an image containing the topographic information of the solder of the cover plate. The spot welding judgment unit determines whether the solder has no breakpoints or gaps based on the solder state at the solder of the cover plate. The spot welding judgment unit can also determine the solder width based on the solder state at the solder, and determine whether the solder width exceeds a preset ratio compared to the diffusion or retraction before melting, combined with the initial cover plate image of the gold-tin cover plate after spot welding. For example, it can be determined whether the solder width exceeds 20% compared to the diffusion or retraction before melting. If it exceeds 20%, it means that the processing conditions during the spot welding process are unreasonable.

[0077] The spot welding inspection method provided in the embodiment of the present application first places the gold-tin cover plate after spot welding horizontally into a heating device, and controls the heating device to perform variable temperature heating on the gold-tin cover plate according to preset packaging process conditions. After the heating is completed, the gold-tin cover plate is taken out of the heating device and cooled to a preset temperature, and then the morphology of the solder of the gold-tin cover plate is obtained. Finally, based on the morphology of the solder of the gold-tin cover plate, it is determined whether the spot welding process level of the gold-tin cover plate is qualified. The qualification of the spot welding process level of the gold-tin cover plate can be determined before packaging and use, thereby helping to check whether the leakage problem after the gold-tin cover plate is sealed is caused by the spot welding process level.

[0078] It should be understood that the size of the serial numbers of the steps in the above embodiments does not mean the order of execution. The execution order of each process should be determined by its function and internal logic, and should not constitute any limitation on the implementation process of the embodiments of this application.

For ease of explanation, only the parts related to the embodiment of the present application are shown.

[0080] See also Figure 7 The spot welding inspection device in the embodiment of the present application may include a heating test module 710 , a cooling module 720 , an inspection target acquisition module 730 and an inspection module 740 .

[0081] The heating test module 710 is used to place the gold-tin cover plate after spot welding horizontally into the heating device, and control the heating device to perform variable temperature heating on the gold-tin cover plate according to preset packaging process conditions.
