Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of laser cladding, and more specifically to an ultrasonic-assisted laser cladding device. Background Technology
[0002] Laser cladding, also known as laser welding or laser coating, is a novel surface modification technology. It involves adding a cladding material to the surface of a substrate and then using a high-energy-density laser beam to fuse the material with a thin layer on the substrate surface, thus forming a metallurgically bonded cladding layer.
[0003] Currently, when using laser cladding to repair crankshaft connecting rod journals, the rapid heating of the laser beam completely melts the metal powder. The heat cannot be transferred quickly enough, resulting in a substrate temperature far lower than the cladding layer temperature. This creates a large temperature gradient between the cladding and substrate materials. During the subsequent rapid solidification process, there is insufficient liquid to replenish the gradient. This temperature gradient difference, combined with the difference in thermal expansion coefficients between the cladding and substrate materials, causes inconsistent volume shrinkage between the cladding and substrate materials. Generally, the shrinkage rate of the cladding layer is greater than that of the substrate material. The cladding layer is constrained by the surrounding environment (the cold substrate), thus creating residual tensile stress within it. Furthermore, solid metals also experience structural stress due to phase transformation during cooling.
[0004] When the combined stress exceeds the material's strength limit, cracks will occur in weak areas of the workpiece, such as pores and inclusions. Residual stress generated during laser cladding is the root cause of cracks in the cladding layer. Therefore, reducing or eliminating residual stress during the cladding process is the most important method to suppress cracks in the laser cladding layer.
[0005] Therefore, developing efficient and reliable stress homogenization technology within the micro-region of the laser cladding pool, starting from regulating the stress field of the cladding layer, is the key and effective way to solve the problem of laser cladding cracks.

The second motors (302) are horizontally installed in the middle of the same-side mounting boxes (301), and a fourth gear (303) is key-connected to the output end thereof. There are a pair of lead screws (304) which are parallelly connected to the left and right mounting boxes (301). Fifth gears (305) are key-connected to both ends of the lead screws (304). The fifth gears (305) are meshed with the adjacent fourth gears (303). The moving frame (306) is in a "soil" shape and is connected to the two lead screws (304) through a pair of lead screw nuts (307). A first guide rail (308) is vertically connected to the middle of the moving frame (306), and a first slider (309) is slidably connected to the first guide rail (308). A first slide plate (310) is vertically connected to the side of the first slider (309). The second cylinder (311) is vertically upwardly installed on the moving frame (306) through a fixing plate (312), and a C-shaped moving plate (313) is connected to the end of its piston rod. The moving plate (313) is perpendicularly connected to the upper part of the first slide plate (310). The laser cladding head (314) is vertically downwardly installed on the first slide plate (310); A pair of second guide rails (315) are symmetrically connected to the front and rear of the lower part of the moving frame (306), and a second slider (316) is slidably connected to the second guide rails (315). An L-shaped second slide plate (317) is connected to the side of the second slider (316), and a hinge bar (318) is hinged between the second slide plate (317) and the first slide plate (310). An inverted "2" - shaped copper coil (319) is provided below the second slide plate (317). The copper coil (319) is installed on the second slide plate (317) through an insulating plate (320), and a power cord (321) is electrically connected to the upper end of the copper coil (319). A pair of connecting columns (322) are parallelly connected to the outside of the copper coil (319), and a sliding frame (323) is slidably connected to the pair of connecting columns (322). A second compression spring (324) is sleeved on the connecting columns (322) between the copper coil (319) and the sliding frame (323). A transducer (325) is coaxially connected to the sliding frame (323), and a transducer (326) is coaxially connected to the inner end of the transducer (325). The ultrasonic forging head (327) is coaxially connected to the inner end of the transducer (326).
