Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model mainly relates to the technical field of liquid cooling system for internal modules of battery box, specifically a welding structure of profile liquid cooling plate and plug. Background Technology
[0002] With the increasing popularity of new energy vehicles, the requirements for the liquid cooling system of the battery pack module, as the core component of new energy vehicles, are becoming more and more stringent. The current mainstream profile liquid cooling plate structure, as a high-efficiency heat dissipation liquid cooling component, is widely used in cooling systems. The liquid cooling plate is usually made of profile structure with a complex internal flow channel design for circulating cooling medium to achieve heat dissipation. The plug, as an important component of the liquid cooling plate, is mainly used to seal the end of the flow channel to prevent cooling medium leakage and ensure the sealing and stability of the system.
[0003] Currently, the connection between the liquid cooling plate and the plug in existing technologies mainly relies on welding technology. The profile liquid cooling plate and the plug are sealed by stir welding and TIG welding. In the process, the air leakage rate and sealing performance at the stir welding and TIG welding joints are high, and the risk of weld cracking is high, which may even lead to leakage or structural failure. In addition, traditional welding methods are prone to defects such as porosity, insufficient strength, stress concentration and cracks during the welding process, which affect the sealing and durability of the welded parts and reduce the service life and performance of the liquid cooling plate. Utility Model Content
[0004] This utility model provides a solution that is significantly different from existing technologies, addressing the problem that existing solutions are too simplistic. Specifically, this utility model provides a welding structure for a profile liquid cooling plate and a plug, which solves the technical problems mentioned in the background section, such as insufficient connection strength, poor sealing, and low airtightness qualification rate of the liquid cooling plate during the manufacturing process when welding the contact surface of the liquid cooling plate and the plug.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows:
[0006] A welding structure for a profile liquid cooling plate and plugs includes a profile liquid cooling plate body and two plug bodies. The plug bodies are located at both ends of the profile liquid cooling plate body and seal the openings at both ends of the profile liquid cooling plate body. A TIG welding connection is provided on the contact surface between the plug body and the profile liquid cooling plate body, and a chamfer is provided at the edge of the TIG welding connection.
[0007] Furthermore, the cutting depth of each chamfered C-angle is 0.5mm to 2mm.
[0008] Furthermore, the angle of each of the aforementioned chamfered C-angles is 45° to 60°.
[0009] Furthermore, the straight edge of the contact surface between the plug body and the profile liquid cooling plate body is provided with an FSW welding part.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0011] This invention achieves a chamfered C-angle treatment of the TIG weld joint between the plug and the liquid cooling plate by setting a TIG welding connection part, a chamfered C-angle, and an FSW welding part. The chamfered C-angle design increases the welding area, improves welding strength and reliability, improves heat distribution at the weld, reduces stress concentration and welding defects, improves the sealing performance of the weld joint, effectively prevents leakage, and extends the service life of the liquid cooling plate. It can solve the problem of low airtightness qualification rate in the profile liquid cooling plate manufacturing process. It has wide applicability, simple structure, and low process requirements. It can significantly improve the structural strength and production efficiency of profile liquid cooling systems, and the leakage risk is extremely low. The airtightness qualification rate after welding the liquid cooling plate and the plug is better than the existing solution, which has important engineering application value and market prospects.

[0020] Please refer to the appendix carefully. Figure 1-3 A welding structure for a profile liquid cooling plate and plugs includes a profile liquid cooling plate body 1 and two plug bodies 2. The plug bodies 2 are located at both ends of the profile liquid cooling plate body 1 and seal the openings at both ends of the profile liquid cooling plate body 1. A TIG welding connection part 3 is provided on the contact surface between the plug body 2 and the profile liquid cooling plate body 1.

[0022] The specific operation is as follows: First, the surface of the welding area between the profile liquid cooling plate body 1 and the plug body 2 is cleaned to remove the oxide layer and impurities. Then, a chamfered C-angle 4 is processed at the edge of the contact surface between the plug body 2 and the profile liquid cooling plate body 1. The straight edge of the plug body 2 and the profile liquid cooling plate body 1 is FSW welded using FSW welding. Finally, the chamfered C-angle 4 is welded using the TIG welding method. The welding current, voltage and speed are controlled to ensure that the weld is uniform and free of defects. After the welding is completed, the weld is cleaned and inspected to ensure that the welding quality meets the requirements.
[0023] Please refer to the appendix carefully. Figure 2 and attached Figure 3 The cutting depth of each chamfered C-angle 4 is 0.5mm to 2mm, and the angle of each chamfered C-angle 4 is 45° to 60°. The design of the chamfered C-angle 4 increases the welding area, improves the welding strength and reliability, improves the heat distribution at the weld, reduces stress concentration and welding defects, improves the sealing of the weld joint, and effectively prevents leakage. The straight edge of the contact surface between the plug body 2 and the profile liquid cooling plate body 1 is provided with an FSW welding part 5. FSW welding does not require the addition of welding wire or shielding gas, which can reduce welding costs.
