Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of automated brazing, and in particular to an automated brazing process and equipment for an aluminum heat exchanger for new energy vehicles. Background Art
[0002] The tube sheet at one end of the floating head heat exchanger tube bundle of the motor cooling device of new energy vehicles can float freely, completely eliminating thermal stress; and the entire tube bundle can be pulled out of the shell, which is convenient for mechanical cleaning and maintenance. The heat exchanger of new energy vehicles adopts brazing technology to make the connection stronger. The workpieces with cleaned surfaces are assembled together in an overlapping manner, and the brazing material is placed near the joint gap or between the joint gaps. When the workpiece and the brazing material are heated to a temperature slightly higher than the melting point of the brazing material, the brazing material melts (the workpiece is not melted), and is sucked into and filled between the solid workpiece gaps by capillary action. The liquid brazing material and the workpiece metal diffuse and dissolve each other, and a brazed joint is formed after cooling.
[0003] In the existing invention, the aluminum heat exchanger of the new energy vehicle is used to heat the interior of the vehicle and provide the best operating temperature for the power battery, thereby reducing the power loss of the vehicle power battery at low temperatures. Brazing technology is used to strengthen the interface of the heat exchanger. During this process, the operator needs to pay attention to the solid-liquid switching state of the brazing rod at all times, and keep the eyes and hands still for a long time, which causes eye diseases to the operator for a long time and also consumes the operator's physical strength, while reducing production efficiency and increasing labor costs.
