Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of friction welding, and in particular to a friction welding device and a welding process. Background Art
[0002] As the performance of military electronic equipment improves, its heat generation also increases exponentially. To solve its heat dissipation problem, the generally available heat dissipation methods include natural cooling, air cooling and liquid cooling. Among them, side wall liquid cooling is a type of liquid cooling. The side wall liquid cooling chassis is mainly composed of side plates and upper and lower cold plates, and the sealing of the upper and lower cold plates themselves is the key technology of side wall liquid cooling;
[0003] The cold plate is mainly composed of a liquid cooling plate and a welding cover plate, and the welding cover plate and the liquid cooling plate are firstly welded together by vacuum brazing, and then the weld between the liquid cooling plate and the welding cover plate is secondary welded by friction stir welding to increase the connection firmness of the liquid cooling plate and the welding cover plate;
[0004] Friction stir welding refers to the use of the heat generated by the friction between the high-speed rotating stirring head and the workpiece to partially melt the material to be welded. When the stirring head moves forward along the welding interface, the plasticized material flows from the front to the back of the stirring head under the action of the rotating friction force of the stirring head, and forms a dense solid phase weld under the extrusion of the stirring head.
[0005] When performing friction stir welding on the welding cover plate and the liquid cooling plate, the stirring head needs to rub against the welding cover plate and the liquid cooling plate to generate heat to partially melt the welded material and form a dense solid phase weld under the movement and extrusion of the stirring head. However, when the stirring head is in an environment with relative movement, long-term friction with the welding cover plate and the liquid cooling plate will cause the surface material to gradually wear. When the wear amount does not reach the critical value, it can still be used, but there will be a certain deviation from the stirring head in the initial state, which will affect the movement accuracy and welding effect. At this time, it is generally improved by re-zeroing the program or manually re-clamping the stirring head by the staff. The above-mentioned remedial methods will increase the extra workload, thereby affecting the efficiency of friction stir welding. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a friction welding device and welding process to solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0073] It should be noted that when the support plate 519 is driven to move upward by starting the fifth cylinder 516, when the top end of the second rack 526 contacts the limiting plate 513, the convex ball 514 is synchronously located between the first clamping plate 529 and the second clamping plate 533, so as to clamp the convex ball 514 as the support plate 519 is continuously moved upward by the fifth cylinder 516, and after clamping, the first rack 512 is synchronously driven to move upward, so as to drive the first gear 507 to rotate, and drive the chuck body 307 to rotate, so that the three groups of jaws 310 are gradually moved upward, and the friction head 305 is dropped from between the three groups of jaws 310, and falls onto the groove 525 through the through hole;
[0074] In summary, the clamping process can be divided into several steps, wherein the first step is: when the friction head 305 of the first friction stir group is worn, the first cylinder 302 is first started to drive the fixed plate 303 to move upward, and then the fifth cylinder 516 is started to drive the support plate 519 to move downward, so that the horizontal position of the support plate 519 is lower than the horizontal position of the friction head 305 of the first friction stir group, and then the rotating motor 401 is started to drive the rotating plate 402 to rotate 90 degrees, so that the friction head 305 of the first friction stir group is directly above the support plate 519, so that the friction head 305 of the first friction stir group can be moved to the designated inspection position;
[0075] Step 2: Reset by starting the fifth cylinder 516 again, that is, drive the support plate 519 to move upward. At this time, the second rack 526 inserted on the support plate 519 gradually approaches and contacts the limiting plate 513. At this time, the convex ball 514 is synchronously located between the first clamping plate 529 and the second clamping plate 533. As the fifth cylinder 516 drives the support plate 519 to continue to move upward, the second rack 526 contacts the limiting plate 513 and is squeezed downward. When the second rack 526 moves downward, the fourth spring 527 is stretched and the second gear 532 is synchronously driven to rotate, so as to drive the second clamping plate 533 to clamp the convex ball 514. At this time, the clamping of the first rack 512 is completed, so that the first rack 512 moves upward synchronously with the upward movement of the telescopic end of the fifth cylinder 516.
[0076] While clamping, the base 528 pushes the first rack 512 to move upward, and the upward movement of the first rack 512 drives the first gear 507 to rotate, and drives the chuck body 307 to rotate, so that the three groups of jaws 310 gradually move upward, and the friction head 305 falls off from between the three groups of jaws 310. At this time, the friction head 305 passes through the through hole and falls on the groove 525 (at this time, the friction head 305 changes from the worn state to the default installation state), and at the same time, the fifth cylinder 516 restores the default state, and the end of the second rack 526 away from the fifth cylinder 516 is against the bottom support plate 524, thereby completing the position change of the worn friction head 305, so that the friction head 305 is kept in the initial position;
[0077] Step 3: Then, the fourth cylinder 502 is started to drive the Y-shaped rod 503 to move, so that the two groups of tapered rods 506 are located and attached to the bottom of the bottom support plate 524 to support and limit the bottom support plate 524, and then the fifth cylinder 516 is started again to drive the support plate 519 to move downward. Since the bottom support plate 524 is restricted by the two groups of tapered rods 506 and the second rack 526 is restricted by the bottom support plate 524, the second rack 526 remains stationary and does not move. In addition, the convex ball 514 at one end of the first rack 512 is clamped and restricted by the first clamping plate 529 and the second clamping plate 533;
[0078] As the fifth cylinder 516 moves downward, the support plate 519 is driven to move downward, and the support plate 519 drives the base 528 to move downward. The base 528 pulls the first rack 512 downward while the support plate 519 squeezes the third spring 523. The downward movement of the first rack 512 drives the first gear 507 to rotate, and drives the chuck body 307 to rotate, so that the three groups of jaws 310 gradually move downward, and the three groups of jaws 310 clamp the friction head 305.
[0079] When the fifth cylinder 516 drives the support plate 519 to move downward and squeezes the third spring 523 to the limit, that is, when the squeezing force of the support plate 519 on the bottom support plate 524 is greater than the thrust of the first spring 505 on the tapered rod 506, the bottom support plate 524 passes over the two groups of tapered rods 506, and the first spring 505 is reset to the initial state. At this time, the bottom support plate 524 no longer restricts one end of the second rack 526, and the second rack 526 drives the second gear 532 to rotate with the reset of the fourth spring 527, so as to drive the second clamping plate 533 to gradually move away from the first clamping plate 529, and no longer clamps the convex ball 514 at one end of the first rack 512, thereby resetting to the initial state;
[0080] Step 4: Then start the rotating motor 401 again to drive the rotating disk 402 to rotate 90 degrees. At this time, the first friction stir group and the second friction stir group are swapped, and then the third cylinder 403 of the first friction stir group is started to reset, and the third cylinder 403 of the second friction stir group is started simultaneously to drive the friction head 305 to move downward, so that the horizontal distance between the friction head 305 of the second friction stir group and the placement table 201 is smaller than the horizontal distance between the friction head 305 of the first friction stir group and the placement table 201, so as to realize the friction welding work through the friction head 305 of the second friction stir group;
[0081] Therefore, during the process of replacing the worn friction head 305, the worn friction head 305 can be calibrated so that the worn friction head 305 maintains the initial position for easy replacement and reuse, thereby improving the stir friction welding efficiency.
