Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of special machinery manufacturing, and in particular, to a laser shot peening system and method for thin-walled components of a high-speed transport equipment body. Background Art

[0002] During service, high-speed transport equipment needs to withstand a series of complex loads including air resistance, train wind, crosswind, etc., and has strict drag reduction and airtightness requirements, which places high demands on the manufacturing shape accuracy, structural strength and stiffness of the thin-walled components of the vehicle body. The vehicle body of high-speed transport equipment, especially the driver's cab, is mostly welded with multiple large-sized, complex-shaped integral thin-walled components. Welding deformation is easy to occur during the loading process, affecting the manufacturing accuracy of the vehicle body; and the various complex loads in the service process are also very likely to cause deformation of the vehicle body. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a process method that can achieve efficient and high-performance shape correction of thin-walled components of the high-speed transport equipment body.

[0003] At present, the traditional shaping method based on manual experience can no longer meet the process requirements of large-scale, high-precision and high-performance shaping of complex-surface thin-walled components of high-speed transport equipment. A series of shot peening shaping processes represented by mechanical shot peening and laser shot peening are derivative applications of shot peening forming, and the process principles of the two are similar. Laser shot peening uses laser pulses as an energy source to introduce impact pressure, bombarding the surface of the material to form plastic deformation, which can be used to achieve the forming or shaping of the sheet metal. It is a highly flexible cold processing process. Compared with mechanical shot peening, laser shot peening is superior in deformation ability, controllability, mechanical properties, surface quality, etc., and is an effective means to achieve efficient and high-performance shaping of thin-walled components of the body of high-speed transport equipment. In addition, some new shaping processes have emerged in recent years, including laser heat shaping (Wang Xiufeng. Laser shaping technology for sheet metal [J]. Forging Technology, 2012, 37(06): 23-25), creep aging shaping (Zhang Wenzheng, Ren Lianbao, Yu Runkang. Development of vacuum creep shaping furnace for titanium plate [J]. Industrial Furnace, 2011, 33(02): 1-3), vibration aging shaping (Liao Kai, Wu Yunxin, Guo Junkang. Limitations and application of vibration aging in stress reduction of aluminum alloy thick plate [J]. Vibration and Shock, 2012, 31(14): 70-73), electromagnetic shaping (Imbert J, Worswick M. Reduction of a pre-formed radius in aluminium sheet using electromagnetic and conventional forming [J]. Journal of Materials Processing Technology, 2012, 212(9): 1963-1972), etc. However, they also have their own obvious limitations. For example, laser thermal shaping can easily cause thermal damage to the material, and the surface quality of the workpiece after shaping cannot be guaranteed; creep aging shaping has a significant rebound problem, and there is often a certain amount of springback after shaping, which affects the shaping effect; the research on vibration aging shaping and electromagnetic shaping technology is still in its infancy, and the process mechanism and law are still unclear, and it is impossible to achieve industrial application in a short time. Therefore, laser shot peening shaping technology is the first choice or even the only technical approach for shaping thin-walled components of modern high-speed transport equipment.

[0004] After searching, patent document CN106216842A (application number: CN201610554238.8) discloses a method and device for online control of dimensional accuracy of laser shot peening for welded metal sheets. The laser beam emitted by the laser is transmitted to the welding area of ​​the workpiece through the optical path system, and the water constraint layer covers the welding area to form a constraint layer. Under the action of the laser pulse, a shock wave is formed on the welding surface, and residual compressive stress is generated inside the welded metal sheet, thereby eliminating the welding residual stress. Laser shot peening causes plastic deformation on the surface of the shot peening area of ​​the weldment and a certain depth range, which can achieve the purpose of straightening. However, the method and device involved in this invention are relatively basic and can only be used to align welded parts with simple shapes, and cannot solve the problem of aligning the complex-shaped thin-walled components of the body of high-speed transport equipment.

[0005] Patent document CN106041344A (application number: CN201610682336.X) discloses a laser shot peening shape correction quality control method for aircraft engine brackets, including the following steps: establishing a database of correspondence between laser shot peening shape correction parameters and welding deformation through a big data platform; aircraft engine bracket structure refinement; refined structure welding and laser shot peening shape correction; bracket assembly welding and laser shot peening shape correction; shape correction effect detection. This invention refines the complex aircraft engine bracket into three simple refined structures, and adopts the processing sequence of segmented welding, segmented laser shot peening shape correction, assembly welding, and assembly laser shot peening shape correction to achieve welding deformation correction of the overall bracket structure, but this invention can still only solve the shape correction problem of simple welded parts.

[0006] Patent document CN106270005A (application number: CN201610727385.0) discloses a method and device for blade laser peening correction, which is characterized in that: first, the blade measurement model is aligned with the CAD model by means of a three-dimensional profile scanner, the torsion error and curvature error of the blade are calculated respectively, and transmitted to the computer control system through the data acquisition system, and the laser peening parameters and correction path are determined by data mining to achieve the torsion and bending correction of the blade. The device for implementing the method includes a computer control system, a laser power supply, a laser, a transmission mirror, an absorption layer, a blade, a three-dimensional profile scanner, a data acquisition system, a water coating robot, a water coating robot control system, a blade part robot, and a blade part robot control system. The correction method and device described in the invention can only realize the correction of small-sized blades, and cannot solve the correction problem of large thin-walled parts. In addition, the patent also lacks a clear solution for designing correction process parameters.

The technical solution of this invention can eliminate the harmful tensile stress of the surface during milling, and can be applied to the repair of deformed and over-tolerance scrapped parts, improve the yield rate of parts, and manufacture the integral wing wall panel that meets the requirements. However, the invention requires the wing panels to be placed horizontally on a horizontal gantry, and then the laser shot peening of different positions of the wing panels is achieved through the movement of a robotic arm. The invention cannot be used to calibrate the thin-walled components that have been assembled on the vehicle body.

[0008] Patent document CN112207426A (application number: CN202011164150.8) discloses a laser shot peening strengthening-correction method and its integrated device for annular parts, including the following steps: obtaining the average curvature change data of the correction area through the laser shot peening correction test, and establishing a database of the correspondence between laser parameters, shot peening path and average curvature; performing laser shot peening on annular parts with residual compressive stress requirements, obtaining the deformation of the inner hole of the annular parts after laser shot peening, and obtaining the curvature data of each point of the inner hole by the data processing system; the data processing system establishes a correction area for each point of the inner hole that does not meet the accuracy requirements, and calculates the average curvature of the correction area; using the laser parameters and shot peening path obtained by matching the average curvature of the correction area with the database, the correction area of ​​the annular parts is corrected. This invention adjusts the laser process parameters for shot peening correction according to the change of the curvature of the inner hole after shot peening, which can only realize the shape control of the annular parts, and cannot be applied to the correction of thin-walled components of the vehicle body with complex surfaces.

[0009] Limited by the application scenarios and scope of application of various current profiling methods, there is an urgent need for a laser shot peening profiling system and method that can realize the profiling of large-size, complex-surface, thin-walled components of high-speed transport equipment.

If it does not meet the accuracy requirement, it is necessary to correct the shape again, forming a closed-loop correction process method of "measurement-planning-correction" for the thin-walled components of the high-speed transport equipment body.

[0080] like Figure 3 As shown, repeated corrections are performed based on the measurement feedback results to ensure that the thin-walled components that need correction can eventually meet the accuracy requirements.
