[0056] It needs to be explained that the adjusting mechanism 2 is connected with the gradient temperature changing mechanism 5, the position of the laser welding head 4 is changed by adjusting the state of the adjusting mechanism 2, the clamping mechanism 9 limits the position of the plate body one 10 and the plate body two 11 to be welded, so that the plate material does not displace in the welding process, the precision and quality of the welding are ensured, the swinging mechanism 3 drives the laser welding head 4 to rotate to realize the swing welding, the welding strength and stability are improved by the welding method, the gas supply mechanism 7 cooperates with the gradient temperature changing mechanism 5, the protective gas is heated and then is delivered to the laser welding head 4, the protective gas can prevent the welding area from reacting with oxygen in the air in the welding process, so that the oxidation is avoided and the welding quality is improved; the gas delivered by the welding seam secondary heating is used as the gas supply of the gas jet preheating mechanism 8, the welding area is preheated, the thermal stress in the welding process is reduced, and the possibility of welding seam deformation is reduced, the gradient temperature changing mechanism 5 performs gradient cooling on the welding area, the cooling speed after welding is controlled, the range of the heat affected zone is reduced, the welding stress is reduced, and the quality and performance of the welding seam are improved.

[0061] As shown in the figure, Figure 3 The gradient temperature changing mechanism 5 includes a box body 51 and a partition plate 52, the box body 51 is fixedly connected with the output end of the electric push rod 24, the inside of the box body 51 is divided into multiple chambers through the partition plate 52, a heating rod 53 is arranged in each chamber, and the chambers contain oil liquid, the temperature of the oil liquid presents a gradient distribution gradually decreasing from the side close to the housing 6 to the side far away from the housing 6, a temperature sensor is arranged in each chamber, and the heating rod 53 and the temperature sensor are connected with a controller, the controller controls the opening or closing of the heating rod 53 according to the temperature data detected by the temperature sensor.

[0064] When the ultrasonic transducer 54 works, it emits ultrasonic waves to the oil liquid in the box body 51. When the ultrasonic waves propagate in the oil liquid, they will cause the vibration and cavitation of the oil liquid. The vibration can make the temperature distribution of the oil liquid more uniform, avoiding the local overheating or overcooling, and ensuring that the protective gas can be uniformly heated during the heating process. The cavitation can promote the mass exchange between the oil liquid and the surface of the gas supply pipe 71, improve the heat transfer efficiency, and make the protective gas be heated faster and more uniformly. In addition, when the gradient cooling is performed on the welded area, it is beneficial to ensure the uniformity of the temperature of the corresponding chamber when the oil liquid in each chamber contacts the weld.

The setting of the inclined hole 811 makes the blown gas concentratedly sprayed to the area to be welded, so that the gas can more uniformly cover the area to be welded, improving the preheating effect. The preheating can reduce the thermal stress during welding and reduce the possibility of weld deformation.

[0067] Further, the U-shaped pipe 81 is slidably connected with a moving pipe 82. One end of the moving pipe 82 is closed, and the other end is connected with the inner wall of the U-shaped pipe 81 through a spring 83. The moving pipe 82 is provided with an exhaust hole 821.
