For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0043] Example:

[0044] Please refer to Figures 1 to 9 , Figures 1 to 9 An embodiment of the present application is shown.

[0045] This embodiment provides an aluminum single plate welding device, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes a host 2 and a resistance welding gun 201. For example, the host 2 includes the host part of the Kende RSR-4000 capacitor energy storage stud welding machine, and also includes the laser generating part of the laser rust remover and the vacuum cleaner body. The resistance welding gun 201 is modified based on the welding gun part of the Kende RSR-4000 capacitor energy storage stud welding machine. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, it also includes a welding pool 1, an air pipe 121 and a pressure reducing valve 120. The welding pool 1 is connected to the electrode of the host 2 and is used to energize the aluminum substrate 301. The welding pool 1 is used to place the aluminum substrate 301; Figure 3 and Fig. 9 As shown, the air pipe 121 is in an array-distributed multi-outlet shape, and the outlets of the multiple air pipes 121 are evenly distributed at the bottom of the welding pool 1; the pressure reducing valve 120 is connected to the air inlet of the end of the air pipe 121 away from the welding pool 1, and the pressure reducing valve 120 is connected to the protective gas source through the solenoid valve, and the protective gas source adopts compressed bottled argon gas;

[0046] When in use, the shielding gas enters the welding pool 1 through the pressure reducing valve 120 and the gas pipe 121 to discharge the oxygen in the welding pool 1, and then Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the aluminum substrate 301 reinforcement rib 302 and the welding pin 303 are put in. Under the action of the current, because only the tip of the lower end of the welding pin 303 contacts the aluminum substrate 301, the contact point resistance is the largest. When the aluminum substrate 301 is charged through the electrode, the top surface of the welding pin 303 also contacts the resistance welding head 205. The contact point has the highest temperature because of the largest resistance. The high temperature quickly melts the protrusion on the top surface of the welding pin 303 and the corresponding position of the aluminum substrate 301. Then, under the action of the downward pressure, the two are combined and naturally cooled to complete the welding.

[0047] The density of the protective gas is greater than that of oxygen (density is 1.31 g / L at room temperature and pressure), and is preferably argon (density is 1.669 g / L at room temperature and pressure).

[0048] Through the above technical solution, the shielding gas is used to slowly fill the welding pool 1 from bottom to top through the pressure reducing valve 120, so that the shielding gas is prevented from forming a high-speed airflow, thereby reducing the occurrence of welding defects.

[0049] As a preferred implementation method, Figure 4 and Fig. 9 As shown, the above-mentioned welding device also includes a receiving plate and a wiring harness. The first receiving plate 110, the second receiving plate 111, the third receiving plate 112 and the fourth receiving plate 113 are all insulated and connected in the welding pool 1. The receiving plate is connected to the electrode of the main machine 2, and the receiving plate is used to place the aluminum substrate 301; wherein, a third wiring harness 116 is connected between the first receiving plate 110 and the second receiving plate 111, a fourth wiring harness 117 is connected between the second receiving plate 111 and the third receiving plate 112, a second wiring harness 115 is connected between the third receiving plate 112 and the fourth receiving plate 113, and a first wiring harness 114 is connected between the fourth receiving plate 113 and the first receiving plate 110. The wiring harness electrically connects multiple receiving plates to each other. The exemplary wiring harness is woven with soft copper wire and has a certain degree of deformability.

[0050] Through the above technical solution, the receiving plate with insulation connection is electrically connected through the wiring, so as to avoid the main body of the welding pool 1 from being conductive, thereby improving the safety of welding.

[0051] As a preferred implementation method, Figure 1 and Fig. 9 As shown, the welding device further comprises a plurality of through holes 1101, and the plurality of through holes 1101 are evenly spaced apart and opened on the surface of the receiving plate.

[0052] The through hole 1101 is punched out with a triangular punch, which takes into account both good discharge performance and good punch strength. At the same time, the diameter of the object allowed to pass through the triangle is smaller than that of a circular hole of the same area.

[0053] Through the above technical solution, a plurality of through holes 1101 are opened on the surface of the receiving plate, which can facilitate the discharge of gas under the receiving plate and improve the purity of the protective gas in the welding pool 1.

[0054] As a preferred implementation method, Figure 4 and Fig. 9 As shown, the welding device further includes an adjusting column 130 and an insulating sheet. The three adjusting columns 130 are connected between the receiving plate and the welding pool 1 in a herringbone shape; the insulating sheet is connected between the adjusting column 130 and the receiving plate.

[0055] like Figure 7As shown, the adjustment column 130 includes a threaded sleeve 131, a threaded column 132 and a limiting ring 133. The threaded sleeve 131 is connected to the back side of the receiving plate, the threaded column 132 and the threaded sleeve 131 are matched and connected, and the limiting ring 133 is connected to the threaded column 132. After being connected to the limiting ring 133, the threaded column 132 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the welding pool 1.

[0056] When in use, the threaded column 132 is rotated to drive the threaded sleeve 131 to drive the receiving plate to approach or move away from the bottom of the welding pool 1, and the receiving plate can be leveled through the three adjustment columns 130 arranged in a herringbone shape.

[0057] Through the above technical solution, the flatness of each receiving plate can be independently adjusted by using the adjusting column 130.

[0058] As a preferred implementation method, Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the above-mentioned insulating sheet includes a first insulating sheet 134 and a second insulating sheet 136 , a varistor 135 is connected between the first insulating sheet 134 and the second insulating sheet 136 , and the varistor 135 is communicatively connected with the solenoid valve.

[0059] During use, when the aluminum substrate 301 is placed in the receiving plate, the varistor 135 is pressurized to change resistance, thereby energizing the solenoid valve. After the solenoid valve is energized, the protective gas passes through the solenoid valve and the pressure reducing valve 120 and enters the air pipe 121.

[0060] Through the above technical solution, the varistor 135 is used to sense the insertion and removal of the aluminum substrate 301, thereby rationally controlling the introduction of the protective gas and saving the usage of the protective gas.

[0061] As a preferred implementation method, Figure 2 As shown, the above-mentioned welding device also includes a cooling component 150, which is arranged around the outside of the welding pool 1. The cooling component 150 makes the temperature of the protective gas near the side wall of the welding pool 1 lower than the temperature of the protective gas near the central area of ​​the welding pool 1.

[0062] Exemplarily, the cooling component 150 includes a number of semiconductor refrigeration plates. After power is turned on, the cold surface of the semiconductor refrigeration plate cools the side walls of the welding pool 1, and the heat dissipation fan cools the hot surface of the semiconductor refrigeration plate and diffuses the hot air to the surroundings. By looking down at the state at this time through thermal imaging technology, a hot-cold-hot three-ring thermal distribution diagram can be seen, in which the central hot circle is formed by the heat generated by welding, and the outer hot circle is formed by the heat dissipated by the semiconductor refrigeration plate. Based on the heat island effect, the gas at the two hot rings rises, and the gas at the cold ring diffuses toward the hot ring to form a microcirculation, that is, an upward airflow is formed around the position of the aluminum substrate 301 to transport the protective gas in the welding pool 1 from bottom to top. However, because the density of the protective gas is greater than the density of oxygen, the gas at the cold ring position around the welding pool 1 can only be supplemented by the air pipe 121 after the gas is lost, thereby preventing oxygen from mixing into the welding pool 1 during this microcirculation process.

[0063] It should be noted that, because the microcirculation is caused by the temperature difference, and the inlet of the protective gas is reduced in pressure by the pressure reducing valve 120, the interaction between the gases maintains a certain speed, which can avoid the turbulence that introduces oxygen into the air.

[0064] Through the above technical solution, the cooling component 150 is used to form a microcirculation of gas exchange in the welding pool 1, thereby further improving the concentration of the protective gas in the welding area.

[0065] As a preferred embodiment, the welding device further includes an oxygen detector 140 , which is connected to the opening of the welding pool 1 .

[0066] Through the above technical solution, the oxygen concentration is detected at the opening of the welding pool 1, thereby preventing oxygen from mixing into the welding pool 1 and affecting the welding quality.

[0067] As a preferred implementation method, Figure 8 As shown, the resistance welding gun 201 is connected to a laser emitter 202 , and the laser emitter 202 is used to remove the oxide layer on the surface of the aluminum substrate 301 below the resistance welding head 205 of the resistance welding gun 201 .

[0068] When in use, the laser generator integrated in the host 2 generates laser light, which is transmitted through the optical fiber and refracted by the laser transmitter 202 to form a circular light spot directly below the resistance welding head 205, such as Figure 5 As shown, after preliminary positioning by three positioning pins 204, the oxide layer on the surface of the aluminum substrate 301 exposed at the opening of the reinforcing rib 302 is removed by short-term high-energy laser shock, and then the welding pin 303 is quickly inserted for further welding.

[0069] Through the above technical solution, laser is used to remove the oxide layer, thereby reducing the thermal deformation caused to the aluminum substrate 301.

[0070] As a preferred implementation method, Figure 8 As shown, the welding device further includes a dust suction pipe 203 , which is connected to the side of the resistance welding gun 201 .

[0071] Through the above technical solution, the dust suction tube 203 is used to avoid the presence of aluminum oxide powder on the welding surface, thereby improving the welding strength.

[0072] The above is only a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can easily think of changes or substitutions within the technical scope of the present invention, which should be included in the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention should be based on the protection scope of the claims.
