[0040] In the description of this embodiment, the terms "upper", "lower", "left", "right" and other directions or positional relationships are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of description and simplification of operation, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operate in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the present invention. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used to distinguish in the description and have no special meaning.

[0041] like Figure 1-Figure 3As shown, in this embodiment, the electron beam welding cooling assembly includes a cooling fixture 1 and an air supply mechanism 2. The cooling fixture 1 is arranged around the periphery of the weldment, and along the circumferential direction of the cooling fixture 1, the outer ring of the cooling fixture 1 is provided with an air inlet 11, and the inner ring of the cooling fixture 1 is provided with an air outlet 12, and the air outlet 12 faces the weldment. The cooling fixture 1 has an air cavity 13, and the air cavity 13 is connected to the air inlet 11 and the air outlet 12. The air supply mechanism 2 is connected to the air inlet 11, and the air supply mechanism 2 is used to provide cooling gas. Specifically, the processing process of the cooling fixture 1 is as follows: a 33mm thick annular cooling fixture 1 is machined using a CNC lathe to ensure a smooth appearance, an outer diameter of 774mm, and an inner diameter of 726mm. Then, a 5mm diameter air outlet 12 and a 10mm diameter air inlet 11 are machined using a four-axis milling machine, and the processing is completed. After the joints of semiconductor parts are welded by electron beam welding, they become welded parts. The cooling tool 1 is placed on the periphery of the welded parts. The air inlet 11 of the cooling tool 1 is connected to the air supply interface of the air supply mechanism 2. The air supply mechanism 2 provides a continuous flow of compressed air to the air cavity 13 of the cooling tool 1 through the air inlet 11, and finally sprays out through the air outlet 12. The air outlet 12 faces the periphery of the welded parts, so that the welded parts can be cooled. The stress deformation caused by the thermal stress after welding of semiconductor parts is improved, and the tool can be operated by one person, and the hands of the personnel can be freed during cooling, thereby improving the work efficiency of the personnel and the productivity of semiconductor parts.

[0042] Further, refer to Figure 1-Figure 2 The cooling fixture 1 includes a shell 3 and an air guide plate 4. The shell 3 has an air cavity 13. The air guide plate 4 is located in the air cavity 13. The shell 3 has a top wall 31 and a bottom wall 32. Along the central axis direction of the shell 3, one end of the air guide plate 4 is fixedly connected to the bottom wall 32, and the other end of the air guide plate 4 is spaced apart from the top wall 31. Specifically, the cooling fixture 1 is made of aluminum material. The air guide plate 4 and the shell 3 are both annular structures, so that the cooling fixture 1 can be arranged around the outer periphery of the welded part along its circumferential direction. There are multiple air outlet holes 12, and multiple air outlet holes 12 are spaced apart along the circumferential direction of the shell 3. Cooling air is introduced from the air inlet 11. Under the action of the air guide plate 4, the cooling air flows rapidly along the outer periphery of the side of the air guide plate 4 close to the air inlet 11. Then, the cooling air flows from the gap between the air guide plate 4 and the top wall 31 to the inner periphery of the side of the air guide plate 4 close to the air outlet 12, and flows along the air guide plate 4 to the air outlet 12 to spray out the cooling air. The air guide plate 4 has a good guiding effect, which can prevent uneven cooling of the periphery of the weldment due to different air outputs between the air outlets 12 of the cooling fixture 1.

[0043] Further, refer to Figure 1-Figure 3The gas supply mechanism 2 includes a gas tank 21 and a gas valve 22. The gas tank 21 has a sealed cavity for containing compressed gas. The gas inlet end of the gas valve 22 is connected to the gas outlet end of the gas tank 21, and the gas outlet end of the gas valve 22 is connected to the gas inlet hole 11. Specifically, the gas tank 21 stores compressed gas in a sealed manner. The switch of the gas valve 22 is used to control whether the compressed gas enters the gas cavity 13 of the cooling fixture 1. When the gas valve 22 is opened, the compressed gas in the gas tank 21 enters the cooling fixture 1 and cools the weldment through the gas outlet hole 12. After the cooling is completed, the gas valve 22 is closed, and the compressed gas in the gas tank 21 stops supplying gas to the cooling fixture 1.

[0044] Further, refer to Figure 3 The electron beam welding cooling assembly also includes a timer 5, which is in communication with the gas valve 22, and is used to time the opening or closing of the gas valve 22. Specifically, the timer 5 can be set with different fixed time periods to control the timing of opening and closing of the gas valve 22. On the premise of ensuring that the weldment is completely cooled, the timer 5 controls the gas valve 22 to close in time, so that the gas storage tank 21 stops supplying gas, thereby avoiding waste of compressed air.

[0045] This embodiment also provides a cooling method for an electron beam welding cooling assembly, such as Figure 4 As shown, through the implementation of the above-mentioned electron beam welding cooling assembly, the cooling method of the electron beam welding cooling assembly includes:

[0046] S100: The cooling tool 1 is placed around the periphery of the weldment.

[0047] After the joints of semiconductor parts are welded by electron beam welding, a welded part is formed. The cooling tool 1 is placed on the periphery of the welded part, and the air inlet 11 of the cooling tool 1 is connected to the air supply interface of the air supply mechanism 2 .

[0048] S200: Under the action of the air supply mechanism 2, the cooling tool 1 cools the weldment.

[0049] S200 specifically includes:

[0050] S201 : the timer 5 opens the gas valve 22 at a fixed time, so that the gas storage tank 21 can provide cooling gas to the air cavity 13 of the cooling tooling 1 .

[0051] When the welded part after electron beam welding needs to be cooled, the timer 5 opens the gas valve 22 at the set time, and the compressed gas in the gas storage tank 21 enters the gas cavity 13 of the cooling tool 1.

[0052] S202: Cooling tool 1 cools the weldment.

[0053] The air storage tank 21 provides a continuous supply of compressed air to the air cavity 13 of the cooling tool 1 through the air inlet 11 , and the air outlet 12 faces the surface of the weldment, and then the weldment is cooled through the air outlet 12 .

[0054] S203: The timer 5 closes the gas valve 22 at a fixed time, and the gas storage tank 21 stops supplying gas.

[0055] Under the premise of ensuring that the weldment is completely cooled, the timer 5 controls the air valve 22 to close in time, so that the air storage tank 21 stops supplying air, thereby avoiding the waste of compressed air.

[0056] The cooling method of the electron beam welding cooling assembly provided in this embodiment, through the implementation of the electron beam welding cooling assembly, the cooling tool 1 is placed in a ring around the outer periphery of the weldment, and under the action of the air supply mechanism 2, the cooling tool 1 cools the weldment, thereby improving the stress deformation caused by the thermal stress after the welding of the semiconductor components. In addition, the tool can be operated by one person, and the operator's hands can be freed during cooling, thereby improving the operator's work efficiency and the productivity of semiconductor components.

For those skilled in the art, various obvious changes, readjustments and substitutions can be made without departing from the protection scope of the present invention.
