Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of advanced laser application technology, and in particular to an absorption layer suitable for oblique-incident laser shock strengthening. Background Art

[0002] Laser shock peening is a processing method that uses laser to bombard the surface of the absorption layer to generate induced shock waves, thereby generating compressive stress on the surface of the part to be processed. At present, with the development of laser shock peening technology, it is increasingly used in complex surface structures such as hole structures and corners. However, these structures often cannot be incident vertically with lasers, and are strengthened by oblique incidence, which leads to a decrease in energy density during strengthening.

[0003] The absorption layer is an auxiliary material used in laser shock strengthening. It is attached to the surface of the workpiece to be strengthened. Its function is to absorb the laser energy and convert it into an induced shock wave to be transmitted to the inside of the metal to be strengthened to generate compressive stress. When using an absorption layer with a specific surface structure, it can improve the absorption rate of laser incident at a specific angle when strengthening a complex surface, thereby achieving an improvement in the strengthening effect, which is of great significance for the strengthening of complex structural metal parts.

[0004] There is no absorption layer structure for oblique incidence in laser shock peening in the open literature. Patent CN116694914A reports a method for strengthening the inner surface of a hole structure by moving a laser system in conjunction with a water flow transmission system. This method achieves the strengthening of the inner surface of the hole structure to a certain extent. However, current patents and methods often focus on the design of the strengthening optical path, so that it can penetrate into complex structures for strengthening. It still cannot solve the problem that most complex structures must be strengthened by oblique laser incidence, and strengthening with oblique laser incidence will cause the energy density to decrease and affect the strengthening effect. There is currently no absorption layer structure design suitable for oblique laser incidence in laser shock peening. Summary of the invention

For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0030] The specific implementation methods of the present application are further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate the present application but are not intended to limit the scope of the present application.

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides an absorption layer 2 suitable for oblique-incident laser shock strengthening, and the absorption layer 2 suitable for oblique-incident laser shock strengthening has a certain microstructure, including an oblique-incident light absorption layer 2.1 and an absorption layer substrate 2.2, the oblique-incident light absorption layer 2.1 is arranged on the absorption layer substrate 2.2, and the absorption layer substrate 2.2 is attached to the surface of the workpiece 1 to be strengthened; the oblique-incident light absorption layer 2.1 includes a plurality of periodically arranged micro-bevel structures, and an inclined incident light absorption surface is formed on the micro-bevel structure facing the direction of the oblique-incident laser, and the incident light absorption surface is inclined at a certain angle relative to the surface of the workpiece 1 to be strengthened.

[0032] In some embodiments, the arrangement period of the micro-slope structures is 30 to 200 micrometers.

[0033] In some embodiments, the incident light absorption surface is inclined at 10 to 30 degrees relative to the workpiece surface.

[0034] In some embodiments, the absorption layer substrate 2.2 has a thickness of 50 to 200 micrometers.

[0035] In some embodiments, the absorption layer substrate 2.2 is adhered to the surface of the workpiece 1 to be strengthened by an adhesive.

[0036] In some embodiments, the absorption layer substrate 2.2 is provided with an indicator mark to indicate the direction of the incident light absorption surface.

[0037] In some embodiments, the absorption layer 2 suitable for oblique-incident laser shock peening is prepared by a metal mold method using aluminum and black glue.

[0038] In application, the inclined incident light absorption layer has a wavy structure, and micro-nano technology or other methods can be used to manufacture a periodic micro-slope structure on the surface of the absorption layer. The period of the micro-slope structure facing the incident light direction is about 30-200 microns depending on the process level. An inclined incident light absorption surface is formed on the wavy structure facing the direction of the incident light, and it is inclined about 10 to 30 degrees relative to the workpiece surface.

[0039] The angle α between the laser and the surface of the workpiece to be strengthened corresponds to the inclination angle θ of the incident light absorption surface, and the sum of the two is 85°-95°. When the laser is incident at an angle, the incident angle on the inclined incident light absorption surface will be reduced by 10-30 degrees compared to the workpiece surface, which can increase the absorption rate of the laser compared to the flat absorption layer without micro-nano structure.

[0040] The thickness of the base material of the absorption layer is about 50-200 microns to form the bottom of the wavy structure. There is an adhesive at the bottom of the base material to firmly adhere the absorption layer to the surface of the workpiece to be strengthened.

[0041] The absorption layer suitable for oblique incident laser shock strengthening provided in the embodiment of the present application can effectively reduce the incident angle of the laser irradiation on the absorption surface, reduce the phenomenon of laser refraction on the surface of the absorption layer, and improve the strengthening efficiency when using oblique incident laser for laser shock strengthening. The absorption layer can be conveniently pasted on the surface of a complex workpiece structure, and when oblique incident laser must be used for strengthening, the absorption layer can improve the laser absorption rate and strengthening efficiency.

[0042] Those skilled in the art can clearly understand that for the convenience and simplicity of description, only the division of the above-mentioned functional units and modules is used as an example for illustration. In actual applications, the above-mentioned functions can be assigned to different functional units and modules as needed, that is, the internal structure of the device can be divided into different functional units or modules to complete all or part of the functions described above. The functional units and modules in the embodiments can be integrated into one processing unit, or each unit can exist physically separately, or two or more units can be integrated into one unit. In addition, the specific names of the functional units and modules are only for the convenience of distinguishing each other, and are not used to limit the scope of protection of this application.

[0043] An embodiment of the present application also provides an oblique-incidence laser shock peening method, which is implemented based on the absorption layer suitable for oblique-incidence laser shock peening; the oblique-incidence laser shock peening method comprises: pasting the absorption layer suitable for oblique-incidence laser shock peening on the surface of a complex workpiece where the laser cannot be incident vertically; applying the absorption layer suitable for oblique-incidence laser shock peening to laser shock peening, and using oblique-incidence laser to strengthen the surface of the workpiece.

[0044] In applications, such as Figure 2As shown, on a U-shaped workpiece, the surface to be strengthened is blocked by other parts of the workpiece structure and cannot be strengthened by 90-degree vertical laser irradiation. The absorption layer suitable for oblique-incident laser shock strengthening is used to improve the laser absorption rate and strengthening effect.

[0045] Specifically, the absorption layer suitable for oblique incident laser shock strengthening can be prepared by using a metal mold method or other techniques, using aluminum, black glue or other materials used to prepare the absorption layer. The absorption layer has a substrate with a thickness of 50-200 microns, and a micro-bevel structure with a period of about 30-200 microns on the surface. An inclined incident light absorption surface is formed facing the direction of the incident light, and it is inclined at an angle of about 10 to 30 degrees relative to the workpiece surface. There is an adhesive at the bottom of the substrate to stick to the workpiece surface, and there is an indicator mark to indicate the direction of the inclined incident light absorption surface.

[0046] When applied to the surface strengthening of a complex structure, the prepared absorption layer suitable for oblique incident laser shock strengthening is pasted on the surface of the complex structure where the laser cannot be incident vertically, and the oblique incident light absorption surface is directed toward the incident light direction according to the indication mark, and is firmly pasted on the surface of the workpiece.

[0047] The pasted absorption layer is applied to laser shock strengthening, and the surface of the workpiece is strengthened by inclined laser. The micro-nano structure on the surface of the absorption layer will reduce the incident angle of the laser on the absorption surface and improve the laser absorption rate.

[0048] Finally, the absorption layer suitable for oblique-incidence laser shock peening is removed by using tools or other methods, and the surface of the workpiece is cleaned to remove residues, thus completing the laser shock peening process of applying the absorption layer suitable for oblique-incidence laser shock peening to complex structures.
