Risk of occasional failure of equipment and processes: The spindle angle is offset, and the welding needle and bushing are worn, resulting in cracking of the liquid cooling plate.
[0015] The workpiece of the utility model is described by taking the liquid cooling plate of the battery pack as an example, as follows:
[0016] As attached Figure 1 and attached Figure 2As shown, a stirring welding guide device for adjusting the guide orientation based on the welding path includes a stirring welding head 2, a shoulder 3 and a jacket 4 coaxially arranged from the inside to the outside; the jacket 4 is provided with a welding guide 5 adjacent to the shoulder 1, and the welding guide 5 can rotate around the shoulder 3 through the jacket 4, and on the welding forward path, the welding guide 5 rotates to a position in front of the shoulder 3. It includes a positioning drive unit 6 driven by the jacket 4 and a positioning component 7 for positioning, the positioning drive unit 6 drives the jacket 4 to rotate, and the positioning component 7 positions the jacket 4 to be fixed relative to the shoulder 3. The welding guide 5 of the utility model can be automatically adjusted around the shoulder 3 through the jacket 4, improves the flexibility and convenience of the welding guide steering adjustment, eliminates the phenomenon of bulges and cracks in the welding process of the workpiece, prevents the workpiece from being scrapped, and greatly improves the qualified rate of the liquid cooling plate stirring welding, saves manufacturing costs, and can be horizontally expanded to other similar production operations to achieve cost reduction and efficiency improvement.
[0017] When the position of the welding guide 5 needs to be adjusted, the adjustment driving unit 6 provides the adjustment driving force, and after adjusting to the accurate position, the positioning component 7 performs positioning and locking.
[0018] More specifically, as Figure 2 As shown, the positioning drive unit 6 is a servo gear transmission mechanism driven by the gear transmission of the jacket 4. The positioning drive unit 6 includes a bracket 61, a driving gear 62, a driven partial gear 63 and a servo motor 64. The bracket 61 is connected to the housing 1 of the stirring welding head 2. The bottom of the housing 1 is connected to the top of the shoulder 3 through the cover plate 10. The driving gear 62 is installed on the bracket 61 through the gear shaft 60. The servo motor 64 drives the connected gear shaft 60. The driven partial gear 63 is located on the jacket 4, and the driving gear 62 is meshed with the driven partial gear 63. The positioning component 7 is a micro brake that cooperates with the gear shaft 60 of the servo gear transmission mechanism. When the welding guide 5 is adjusted to a predetermined accurate position, the micro brake brake brakes the gear shaft 60 and brakes the jacket 4 to position and lock the current position of the welding guide 5 relative to the shoulder 3.
[0019] The jacket 4 is composed of an upper ring sleeve 41 and a lower ring sleeve 42 connected by bolts and nuts, wherein: the driven local teeth 63 are installed on the upper ring sleeve 41, and the upper ring sleeve 41 is sleeved on the shaft shoulder 3 from top to bottom, and the two form axial limit by relying on the radial structural size difference; the lower ring sleeve 42 is sleeved on the shaft shoulder 3 from bottom to top, and the two form axial blocking limit by relying on radial protrusions; finally, the upper ring sleeve 41 and the lower ring sleeve 42 are connected by bolts and nuts, and the installation is completed.

The elastic guide connecting member 8 is composed of a guide bolt 81 and a spring 82. The welding guide portion 5 is connected to the upper ring sleeve 41 through the guide bolt 81, and the spring 82 is elastically sleeved on the guide bolt 81.
[0021] It is worth noting that the welding guide part 5 is a guide crank, the bottom surface of the guide crank is a slope surface 50, and the front and rear ends of the slope surface 50 are respectively a front high end chamfer structure 50a and a rear low end chamfer structure 50b, which plays a role of smooth transition before the product is torn.
[0022] The shoulder 3 is provided with a chip removal opening 30 extending from the inner cavity to the outer side. When the stirring welding head 2 is welding, it rotates at a high speed, which will generate a lot of heat. In addition, during welding, aluminum chips will be discharged from the chip removal opening 30. Therefore, the guide crank should be made of a material with high hardness and good wear resistance to increase the service life and avoid the risk of product scrapping due to damage to the guide structure.
