[0043] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0044] Embodiment 1:

[0045] In order to explain the structure of the present invention more clearly, the micro TO device 1 in this embodiment is first explained. Figure 1 . The micro TO device 1 in this embodiment includes a coaxially assembled tube cap 11 and a tube seat 12. The tube seat 12 includes a seat body 121 and a pin 122 coaxially arranged with the seat body 121. From the appearance, the seat body 121 is composed of a coaxial first section and a second section, and the outer diameter of the first section is smaller than the outer diameter of the second section. The pin 122 is fixedly arranged on the side of the second section away from the first section. The pin 122 is slender and the outer diameter of the pin 122 is smaller than the outer diameter of the first section. The tube cap 11 includes a main body 111 and a flange 112 coaxially arranged with the main body 111. The main body 111 is a hollow cylinder and one end is capped with an arc-shaped glass lens. The flange 112 is arranged on the other end of the main body 111 away from the glass lens, and is formed by the outer periphery of the main body 111 extending radially outward, so the outer diameter of the flange 112 is larger than the outer diameter of the main body 111. An annular arc angle 113 with a natural transition is formed between the main body 111 and the flange 112. The inner diameter of the main body 111 matches the inner diameter of the first subsection so that the first subsection can be accommodated therein. The outer diameter of the flange 112 matches the second subsection so that it can be pressed together with the second subsection.

[0046] The micro TO device welding method of the present invention aims to position and weld the tube base 12 and the tube cap 11 of the micro TO device 1 by a welding device 2. Figure 2 and Figure 3The welding device 2 includes an upper electrode 21, a lower electrode 22, and a limiting cylinder 23 for limiting and fixing the upper electrode 21 and the lower electrode 22. In order to cooperate with the limiting cylinder 23, the lower electrode 22 includes a coaxial guide section 221 and a limiting section 222. The limiting section 222 is located at the lower end of the guide section 221, and the outer diameter of the limiting section 222 is smaller than the outer diameter of the guide section 221, and a second step surface 223 is formed between the limiting section 222 and the guide section 221. The lower electrode 22 is provided with a first through hole 224 for limiting the tube seat 12. The inner diameter of the first through hole 224 is larger than the outer diameter of the pin 122 and smaller than the outer diameter of the second section. In this way, the first through hole 224 can accommodate the pin 122 and keep the seat body 121 on the upper surface of the lower electrode 22. It should be emphasized that the inner diameter of the first through hole 224 can be as large as possible under the premise of being smaller than the outer diameter of the second section, because during the processing of the tube seat 12, the central axis of the pin 122 may deviate from the central axis of the seat body 121 by a certain angle, which does not affect the subsequent use of the tube seat 12. When the first through hole 224 is as large as possible, the deviation between the pin 122 and the seat body 121 that can be accommodated by the first through hole 224 is also greater. That is, even if the deviation between the pin 122 and the seat body 121 is large, when the pin 122 is accommodated in the first through hole 224, the lower end surface of the tube seat 12 can still fit with the upper end surface of the lower electrode 22, and does not affect the subsequent welding operation.

[0047] The outer diameter of the upper electrode 21 is the same as that of the guide section 221, and the upper electrode 21 is provided with a second through hole 211 which is used to limit the tube cap 11, and the second through hole 211 can be coaxially connected with the first through hole 224. The inner diameter of the second through hole 211 is larger than the outer diameter of the main body 111 and smaller than the outer diameter of the flange 112, so that the second through hole 211 can accommodate the main body 111, and at the same time, the flange 112 can be pressed onto the tube seat 12 and the lower electrode 22 through the lower end face of the upper electrode 21. It should be emphasized that the intersection of the lower end face of the upper electrode 21 and the second through hole 211 is provided with an arc chamfer 212 which is adapted to the arc angle 113, please refer to Figure 4 When the lower end surface of the upper electrode 21 presses the flange 112 onto the tube seat 12 and the lower electrode 22, the arc chamfer 212 is pressed onto the arc corner 113 to avoid scratches on the tube seat 12 at the sharp intersection, and also to avoid excessive charge accumulation and excessive current at the sharp intersection, which may cause the gold-plated layer of the tube cap 11 to adhere to the upper electrode 21 during the welding process.

[0048] The limiting cylinder 23 includes a cylinder wall and a limiting cavity formed in the cylinder wall. The limiting cavity is coaxial with the limiting cylinder 23 and penetrates the limiting cylinder 23 axially, and the limiting cavity includes a first cavity 231 and a second cavity 232 that are coaxially opened. The first cavity 231 penetrates the upper end surface of the limiting cylinder 23, and the inner diameter of the first cavity 231 matches the outer diameter of the upper electrode 21 and the guide section 221 so as to accommodate both the upper electrode 21 and the lower electrode 22. The second cavity 232 is located at the lower end of the first cavity 231 and is connected to the first cavity 231. The inner diameter of the second cavity 232 is smaller than the inner diameter of the first cavity 231 and forms a first step surface 233 between the second cavity 231 and the first cavity 231. Please refer to Figure 5 The outer diameter of the limiting section 222 matches the inner diameter of the second cavity 232. When the lower electrode 22 is placed in the limiting cylinder 23, the first step surface 233 contacts the second step surface 223 to limit the lower electrode 22 in the axial direction. The sum of the height of the upper electrode 21 and the height of the lower electrode 22 is greater than the height of the limiting cylinder 23.

[0049] The micro TO device welding method of the present invention performs positioning welding on the tube seat 12 and the tube cap 11 of the micro TO device 1 by using the above-mentioned welding device 2, and comprises the following steps:

[0050] S100: placing the lower electrode 22 in the limiting cylinder 23;

[0051] S200: inserting the tube seat 12 into the limiting cylinder 23 with the pin 122 facing downward, so that the pin 122 extends into the first through hole 224, and the seat body 121 is limited to the upper end surface of the lower electrode 22;

[0052] S300: Covering the pipe cap 11 on the base body 121 with the flange 112 facing downward;

[0053] S400: placing the upper electrode 21 in the limiting cylinder 23, and accommodating the seat body 121 in the second through hole 211, and the upper electrode 21 and the lower electrode 22 press the seat body 121 and the flange 112 tightly together;

[0054] S500: placing the assembled tube base 12, tube cap 11 and welding device 2 on the energy storage welding equipment for welding.

[0055] The working method of the embodiment 1 of the micro TO device welding method of the present invention is as follows: first, the lower electrode 22 is placed in the limiting cylinder 23. When placing, the lower electrode 22 is placed in the limiting cavity with the limiting section 222 facing downward until the first step surface 233 contacts the second step surface 223, at which time, the lower end of the lower electrode 22 extends out of the limiting cylinder 23. Then, the tube seat 12 is extended into the limiting cylinder 23 with the pin 122 facing downward, so that the pin 122 extends into the first through hole 224, and the lower end surface of the seat body 121 is fitted with the upper end surface of the lower electrode 22, so that the seat body 121 is limited to the upper end surface of the lower electrode 22. It should be emphasized that the seat body 121 needs to be coaxial with the first through hole 224 when placed so as not to affect the subsequent pressing and welding. Then, the tube cap 11 is covered on the seat body 121 with the flange 112 facing downward. The upper electrode 21 is placed in the limiting cylinder 23, and the seat body 121 is accommodated in the second through hole 211. The upper electrode 21 and the lower electrode 22 press the seat body 121 and the flange 112 tightly together. Finally, the assembled tube seat 12, tube cap 11 and welding device 2 are placed on the energy storage welding equipment for welding.

[0056] Based on the above embodiments, the micro TO device welding method of the present invention has the following beneficial effects: the micro TO device 1 is assembled in a manner that the tube seat 12 is at the bottom and the tube cap 11 is at the top, so that the upper electrode 21 and the lower electrode 22 jointly press the assembled micro TO device 1, and a limiting cylinder 23 is provided to limit and fix the upper electrode 21 and the lower electrode 22 so that the upper electrode 21, the lower electrode 22, the tube seat 12 and the tube cap 11 form a stable whole. Such welding can better protect the tube seat 12 and the tube cap 11; at the same time, the upper electrode 21 used for pressing the tube cap 11 is also provided with an arc chamfer 212 matching the arc angle 113 of the tube cap 11, which further protects the tube cap 11 from being damaged during the welding process.

[0057] Embodiment 2:

Each of the slots 234 is in an arc shape that matches the limiting cylinder 23, and each of the slots 234 also penetrates the inner wall of the limiting cylinder 23 to communicate with the first cavity 231. The outer peripheral wall of the upper electrode 21 is provided with a block 213 corresponding to the plurality of slots 234 at the position corresponding to the plurality of slots 234, and the block 213 can slide vertically in the slot 234. When the block 213 slides to the bottom of the slot 234, the upper electrode 21 and the lower electrode 22 press the tube seat 12 and the tube cap 11 tightly. With the cooperation of the plurality of the clamping blocks 213 and the plurality of the clamping grooves 234 , the upper electrode 21 will not rotate in the limiting cylinder 23 , thereby not causing friction damage to the tube cap 11 .

[0059] Please refer to Figure 6 , Figure 8 and Fig. 9 The limiting cylinder 23 is also provided with a limiting assembly 3, which is used to cooperate with the plurality of the clamping blocks 213 and the plurality of the clamping slots 234 to realize the axial limiting of the upper electrode 21.

The rotating ring 32 matches the annular groove 33 to be accommodated therein, and the rotating ring 32 can rotate around its own axis in the annular groove 33. A groove 34 is also provided on one circumferential side of each of the clamping slots 234, and the groove 34 is connected with the corresponding clamping slot 234, and the outer periphery of the groove 34 is connected with the annular groove 33, and the groove 34 is in an arc shape matching the clamping slot 234. The limiting pieces 31 have a plurality of corresponding grooves 34, each of which is in an arc shape matching the grooves 34, and each of which is fixed to the inner peripheral wall of the rotating ring 32. When the rotating ring 32 is installed in the annular groove 33, the limiting pieces 31 are located in the grooves 34 in a corresponding manner, and when the rotating ring 32 rotates, the limiting pieces 31 move from the grooves 34 to the corresponding slots 234 together. It should be emphasized that the slots 34 are opened at the side wall of the slots 234 corresponding to the upper end surface of the block 213, that is, when the limiting piece 31 moves into the slots 234, the lower end surface of the limiting piece 31 contacts the upper end surface of the block 213 to limit the position.

[0060] A connecting groove 35 is also provided on the limiting cylinder 23 at a position corresponding to the outer circumference of the annular groove 33. The connecting groove 35 is provided along the radial direction of the limiting cylinder 23 and extends along the circumferential direction of the limiting cylinder 23. One radial end of the connecting groove 35 is connected to the annular groove 33, and the other radial end of the connecting groove 35 penetrates the outer circumferential wall of the limiting cylinder 23 outward. A lever 36 is slidably provided in the connecting groove 35. The lever 36 is provided along the radial direction of the limiting cylinder 23. One end of the lever 36 is fixedly connected to the outer circumferential wall of the rotating ring 32, and the other end extends outward. The lever 36 can rotate in the connecting groove 35 with the axis of the limiting cylinder 23 as the center (slide along this trajectory in the connecting groove 35). A paddle 37 is provided at one end of the lever 36 away from the rotating ring 32.
