Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of galvanometer welding, and in particular relates to a galvanometer welding device for a battery pack water cooling plate. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of the new energy vehicle industry, battery pack performance is crucial. As a core component of the battery pack's cooling system, the welding quality of the water cooling plate directly impacts the battery's heat dissipation efficiency and service life. Currently, the welding process for battery pack water cooling plates faces numerous technical challenges. Regarding welding precision control, since water cooling plates are typically composed of a cover and base plate, traditional clamping devices only provide simple mechanical fixation and cannot effectively address the issue of surface height differences between the joints. When the surface height difference between the joints exceeds 0.1mm, defects such as weld penetration and cold welds are highly likely to occur during welding, reducing the sealing performance and heat dissipation efficiency of the water cooling plate. Furthermore, thermal stress generated during welding can cause workpiece deformation, further exacerbating welding precision deviations. The design of the cooling and dust removal systems is also flawed. Traditional systems operate independently of each other in cooling gas delivery and fume extraction, making simultaneous operation impossible. This makes the weld area susceptible to oxidation at high temperatures, compromising weld quality. Furthermore, excessive fume accumulation not only contaminates optical lenses, shortens the life of welding equipment, but also poses a health risk to operators. In addition, the existing cooling and dust removal devices are difficult to flexibly adjust according to workpieces of different thicknesses and have poor applicability. Summary of the Invention

The outer ring dust extraction cavity absorbs the smoke in a circular shape through the bottom dust suction holes.

The four corners of the upper end of the first fixed plate are provided with a cylinder rotating and pressing device for rotating and pressing down to position the battery pack water cooling plate. The elastic clips first perform a preliminary positioning of the circulating cooling seat, and the cylinder rotating and pressing device then achieves secondary fixation through rigid pressing to avoid displacement of the workpiece during welding, ensure the accuracy of the weld position, and is suitable for high-precision welding scenarios.
[0008] Furthermore, the battery pack water cooling plate includes a cooling base plate, a serpentine liquid circulation groove is provided inside the cooling base plate, a cover plate supporting step is provided at the upper end of the serpentine liquid circulation groove, a serpentine cover plate is placed on the cover plate supporting step, and a liquid circulation inlet and outlet are provided at one side end of the cooling base plate.

The drive of the gear rotating motor cooperates with the second slide rail slider moving device to complete the longitudinal movement of the downward pressure round rod. The downward pressure round rod has its own bearing and is a self-rotating movable round rod. At the same time, the overall lifting movement of the downward pressure round rod can be completed through the second screw motor lifting device. The downward pressure round rod adjusts the height through the second screw motor lifting device, and cooperates with the gear rotating motor and rack transmission to achieve longitudinal movement. The tail of the serpentine cover plate can be dynamically flattened to prevent the tail from warping due to thermal stress during welding, which is especially suitable for the welding scenario of long strip cover plates. The downward pressure round rod has its own bearing and can rotate to avoid deformation of the cover plate caused by hard extrusion; the second slide rail slider moving device cooperates with the screw motor to achieve uniform pressure application.
[0010] Furthermore, the welding cover plate pressing and positioning device includes two gantry fixing rods that are installed in opposition, and an I-shaped fixed beam is provided at the upper end of the gantry fixing rod, and a longitudinal gear motor moving device is provided on one side of the upper end of the I-shaped fixed beam. A downward pressure cylinder is provided at the four corners of the upper end of the I-shaped fixed beam, and the output ends of the downward pressure cylinders are connected to jet pressure heads. The jet pressure heads are two and separately connected to the four downward pressure cylinders. The downward pressure cylinder drives the jet pressure head to press down to ensure that the cover plate and the base plate fit tightly. The argon nozzle sprays inert gas before welding, and the air is discharged to form a protective air curtain to prevent high-temperature oxidation. It is especially suitable for welding active metals such as aluminum and magnesium, reducing defects such as pores and cracks. The longitudinal screw motor moving device can adjust the position of the I-shaped fixed beam so that the pressing range of the jet pressure head covers workpieces of different sizes.
[0011] Furthermore, the jet pressure attachment head includes a pressing block, which contains an electromagnet inside, which is used to adsorb the serpentine cover plate after pressing down, so that it is on the same horizontal line as the cooling base plate, which helps to flatten the welding surface. A pipe is provided on one side of the pressing block, and an argon inlet hole is provided on one side end of the pipe. A number of argon nozzles are evenly and equidistantly arranged on the pipe. The argon nozzle performs jet treatment on the surface of the battery pack water cooling plate before welding. The electromagnet inside the pressing block adsorbs the cover plate to forcibly eliminate the splicing gap, and cooperates with the plane drop control technology (<0.1mm) to directly adsorb the serpentine cover plate flush with the cooling base plate to ensure the flatness of the welding surface. Argon is evenly sprayed through the pipe and nozzle to form a protective gas layer with a thickness of about 5-10mm in the welding area, isolating oxygen and nitrogen, and reducing the oxidation rate of the weld metal.
[0012] Furthermore, the lifting device includes a screw motor fixing seat, a screw rotating motor is provided on one side of the upper end of the screw motor fixing seat, a transmission shaft is provided at the output end of the screw rotating motor, a screw rod is provided inside the transmission shaft, the top of the screw rod is fixedly connected to a beam, and a third slide rail slider moving device is provided at both ends of the beam, and the beam is driven by the cooperation of the screw rotating motor and the screw rod to combine the third slide rail slider moving device to complete the up and down lifting of the beam, and at the same time drive the overall large-scale movement of the lifting welding lens to meet the focusing problem of processing workpieces at different heights. The screw rotating motor drives the screw rod to drive the beam to move up and down, and the third slide rail slider moving device ensures smooth movement, which can realize vertical stroke adjustment of the welding lens and quickly adapt to workpieces of different heights. The combined transmission accuracy of the screw rod and the slide rail slider reaches 0.05mm, and the two ends of the beam are guided by the third slide rail slider moving device to avoid yaw vibration during lifting and lowering, thereby ensuring the stability of the welding lens focal length.
[0013] Furthermore, the lifting welding lens includes a second fixed plate, the second fixed plate is fixedly connected to the crossbeam, a third screw motor lifting device is fixedly connected to one side of the second fixed plate, and a galvanometer welding head is fixedly connected to one side end of the third screw motor lifting device. The third screw motor lifting device can complete the Z-direction fine-tuning of the galvanometer welding head. The third screw motor lifting device can fine-tune the galvanometer welding head by 0.01-1mm, and can realize precise calibration of the laser focal length on the basis of large-stroke lifting, meeting the micron-level welding accuracy requirements.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. The Z-axis elevation of the welding lens is controlled by lifting devices on both sides of the gantry. The horizontal and vertical screw motors on the fixed support base drive the dust collection and cooling device to follow horizontally, forming a "vertical motion + horizontal tracking" collaborative mode. This allows real-time tracking of the complex welding trajectory of the battery pack water cooling plate, with a transmission accuracy of 0.05mm, ensuring weld position deviation of less than 0.1mm, meeting the high-precision requirements of water cooling plate microchannel welding. 2. The dust collection device adopts an independent design of the inner ring air blowing cooling chamber and the outer ring dust extraction chamber. The cooling gas passes through the blowing holes on the trumpet-shaped side wall in a fan-shaped manner to cover the welding area, causing the temperature of the welding point to drop sharply, avoiding thermal deformation of the water-cooled plate material. At the same time, the annular dust collection holes simultaneously absorb smoke and dust, greatly improving the dust removal efficiency, preventing smoke and dust from contaminating the galvanometer lens, and ensuring laser focusing accuracy. 3. The fixed base achieves dual fixation of the water cooling plate through elastic clips and a cylinder rotating downward pressure device. The downward pressure rod of the auxiliary fixing device dynamically flattens the tail of the serpentine cover plate. Combined with the electromagnet adsorption and cylinder downward pressure of the welding cover plate pressing and positioning device, the height difference between the cover plate and the base plate is less than 0.1mm, eliminating the displacement or warping of the workpiece during welding and ensuring a uniform and continuous weld. 4. The jet pressure head has a built-in argon nozzle. Before welding, argon is sprayed on the surface of the water-cooling plate to form a 5-10mm protective gas layer, which reduces the oxygen concentration in the weld area, effectively prevents oxidation of the aluminum alloy, reduces defects such as pores and cracks, and increases the tensile strength of the weld by more than 20%, meeting the pressure-resistant sealing requirements of the battery pack water-cooling plate. 5. Each functional module, such as the lifting welding lens, dust collection and cooling device, and clamping welding workbench, is independently assembled and connected through a standardized interface between the lead screw motor and the slide rail slider, allowing for quick adaptation to battery pack water cooling plates of different sizes. The cavity structure is also removable for cleaning, reducing the maintenance and replacement time of key components to less than 30 minutes, thus reducing equipment downtime costs.

The combined transmission accuracy of the screw rod and the slide rail slider reaches 0.05mm, and the two ends of the beam are guided by the third slide rail slider moving device to avoid yaw vibration during lifting and lowering, thereby ensuring the stability of the focal length of the welding lens.

[0029] Working Principle: Initial fixation of the water-cooling plate: Place the battery pack water-cooling plate (the assembly of the cooling base plate and the serpentine cover plate) on the fixed plate of the fixed base. Initial positioning is achieved through the elastic clips at the four corners, which quickly limit the horizontal displacement of the water-cooling plate. The cylinder rotation and pressing device is activated, and the rotation and pressing action applies rigid pressure to the elastic clips to complete the secondary fixation of the water-cooling plate, ensuring that the workpiece does not shake during welding. Dynamic flattening of the cover plate tail: The two U-shaped fixing rods of the auxiliary fixing device are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the water-cooled plate. The height of the annular fixing rods is adjusted by the second screw motor lifting device, so that the downward pressure rod is aligned with the tail of the serpentine cover plate. The gear rotation motor drives the downward pressure rod to move longitudinally along the rack. At the same time, the second slide block moving device cooperates and adjusts. The downward pressure rod rotates on its own bearing to contact the cover plate, avoiding rigid extrusion deformation and dynamically flattening the tail that may be tilted due to thermal stress. Cover plate integral pressing and shielding gas pretreatment: The I-shaped fixed crossbeam of the welding cover plate pressing and positioning device is adjusted in position by the longitudinal screw motor moving device, so that the four downward pressure cylinders drive the air jet pressing head to align with the cover plate surface. The downward pressure cylinder drives the downward pressure block to press down, and the internal electromagnet is energized to attract the serpentine cover plate, forcing it to be flush with the cooling base plate (plane drop <0.1mm). At the same time, argon gas is ejected from the nozzle through the pipe, forming a 5-10mm thick shielding gas layer in the welding area, and the air is exhausted to prevent oxidation. Coarse adjustment of the welding lens height: The rotating motor of the lifting device drives the screw in the transmission shaft to rotate, driving the crossbeam to move up and down through the third slide rail slider moving device, realizing a large range of Z-direction movement of the lifting welding lens, quickly adapting to water-cooled plate workpieces of different heights, and completing coarse focus adjustment; Fine-tuning the focal length of the welding lens: The third screw motor lifting device is started to finely adjust the Z direction of the galvanometer welding head by 0.01-1mm. Combined with the laser ranging feedback, it ensures that the laser focus is accurately positioned on the welding surface to meet the micron-level welding accuracy requirements; Position calibration of the dust collection and cooling device: The horizontal and vertical screw motor moving devices supporting the fixed base work together to drive the dust collection and cooling device to move horizontally, aligning it with the area to be welded. At the same time, the first screw motor lifting device adjusts the Z-axis height of the dust collection device, and cooperates with the first slide rail slider moving devices on both sides to fine-tune the horizontal position to ensure precise control of the distance between the dust collection port and the welding point. Laser welding process: The galvanometer welding head receives the control signal and realizes high-speed scanning of the laser beam through the deflection of the internal galvanometer lens. It passes through the I-shaped fixed beams along the preset trajectory to weld the joint between the serpentine cover plate and the cooling base plate. Real-time cooling and dust removal: The inner ring air blowing and cooling chamber is connected to compressed air or inert gas through the inner ring air blowing connection hole. The gas is ejected in a fan shape through the air blowing and cooling holes on the trumpet-shaped side wall, covering the welding area, so that the temperature of the welding point is quickly reduced, and the water-cooling plate is prevented from being deformed due to high temperature; the outer ring dust extraction chamber is connected to the dust collection equipment through the outer ring air extraction connection hole. The annular dust collection hole at the bottom synchronously absorbs the smoke generated by welding, with a dust removal efficiency of more than 95%, preventing smoke from contaminating the lens or depositing on the workpiece surface. During the welding process, the horizontal and vertical screw motor moving devices drive the dust collection and cooling device to move in real time according to the welding trajectory, keeping the relative position of the dust collection port and the welding point unchanged. The lifting device fine-tunes the height of the welding lens according to the undulations of the workpiece surface to ensure a constant laser focal length. Welding is completed: the electromagnet of the jet pressure head is powered off, the downward pressure cylinder retracts; the downward pressure round rod of the auxiliary fixing device rises, and then the downward pressure welding of the next area is carried out.
