The lower electrode is located below the workpiece. The fixing component connects one end to the nut base and the other end passes through the convex ring and the workpiece in sequence and then connects to the lower electrode, so that the workpiece and the nut fit tightly.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0025] In order to make the present invention more clearly understood, a preferred embodiment is described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings as follows:

[0026] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2, an embodiment of the present application provides a high-strength steel projection welding sealing nut, comprising a nut base 1 with an internal threaded hole 2, an annular groove 3 opened at the bottom of the nut base 1, a gasket 4 embedded in the groove 3, and a convex ring 5 arranged at the bottom of the nut base 1. Among them, the convex ring 5 has a certain height and its diameter is larger than the diameter of the annular groove 3. During use, the convex ring 5 contacts the workpiece 7. In order to improve the stability of the gasket 4 and prevent it from being melted during the welding process, the gasket 4 adopts a polytetrafluoroethylene gasket with a high melting point. The gasket 4 is compressed and deformed during the welding process, filling the gap where the convex ring is not well formed, thereby improving the airtight stability of the sealing projection welding.

[0027] The welding process of the present invention is:

[0028] 1. The wire is fed into a straightening machine and processed into a nut base 1 through a die punching device.

[0029] 2. The processed nut base 1 is passed through a thread processing device to form an internal thread hole 2;

[0030] 3. Processing the polytetrafluoroethylene material into a gasket 4;

[0031] 4. Place the gasket into the annular groove 3.

[0032] 5. Weld a fixed convex ring 5 at the bottom of the nut base 1.

[0033] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: during the welding process with the workpiece, the bottom of the convex ring 5 contacts the surface of the workpiece 7, the outer periphery of the nut base 1 is connected to the upper electrode 6, the lower part of the nut base 1 is connected to the lower electrode 9, and the lower electrode 9 is located below the workpiece 7. One end of the positioning pin 8 is connected to the internal threaded hole 2, and the other end passes through the convex ring 5 and the workpiece 7 in sequence and then connects to the lower electrode 9, so that the workpiece and the nut fit tightly; then the welding current is connected to weld the high-strength projection welding sealing nut to the workpiece 7. In a high-temperature environment, the washer 4 prevents the melting splash of the convex ring 5 from damaging the threads of the internal threaded hole 2. At the same time, the washer 4 made of high-melting-point polytetrafluoroethylene is compressed and deformed during the welding process, filling the gaps in the poorly formed parts of the convex ring 5, thereby improving the airtight stability of the sealing projection welding. The area of ​​the convex ring is much larger than that of the convex point, and the plate may have surface defects, differences in the follow-up and uniformity of the welding machine electrode, nut and plate coating and other problems will lead to poor stability of the sealed projection welding. Under reasonable welding process parameters, due to the fast melting speed of the projection welding and the fast water cooling speed of the electrode, less heat is transferred to the polytetrafluoroethylene gasket, the polytetrafluoroethylene gasket will not melt and thermally deform, and the stability of the sealed projection welding is further guaranteed.

[0034] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and is not any formal or substantial limitation of the present invention. It should be pointed out that ordinary technicians in this technical field can make several improvements and supplements without departing from the present invention, and these improvements and supplements should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention. Any technician familiar with this profession, without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, can make some changes, modifications and equivalent changes made by using the technical content disclosed above, which are equivalent embodiments of the present invention; at the same time, any changes, modifications and evolutions of any equivalent changes made to the above embodiments based on the essential technology of the present invention are still within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
