Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to titanium alloy processing technical field especially is related to a titanium alloy closing box shape piece electron beam welding device. BACKGROUND

[0002] Titanium alloy processing is the process that titanium alloy material is made into the required shape and precision spare part by cutting, forging, casting and various processes. Because of its high strength, small density, good corrosion resistance and other characteristics, it is widely used in aerospace and other fields. Electron beam welding is in a vacuum environment, using high-energy electron beam to hit the joint of the welding part, so that the metal melts and fuses instantly. This welding method has high energy density, large weld seam depth-width ratio, small heat-affected zone and small deformation, and can realize precise welding, especially suitable for welding some refractory metals and precise and complex titanium alloy components, and is widely used in industries with high welding quality requirements such as aviation and electronics.

[0003] The existing electron beam welding device mostly only has the function of welding, and does not have the function of cleaning the oxides and hydrocarbons of the workpiece. Because titanium has strong affinity with oxygen and carbon, the titanium alloy workpiece often needs to be cleaned with cleaning liquid before processing. Otherwise, the residual oxides and hydrocarbons will react with titanium during the welding process to generate hard and brittle compounds such as TiO2 and TiC. The presence of these brittle phases will sharply deteriorate the toughness of the welded joint, increasing the risk of brittle fracture of the welding part during use. In the existing technology, the titanium alloy workpiece is first cleaned in an external cleaning tank, and then quickly transferred to the vacuum electron beam welding device for welding processing. Although this method can effectively improve the welding quality, the cleaning, flushing and transfer processes are not carried out in a vacuum environment. The titanium alloy workpiece will inevitably come into contact with air during these processes. Because titanium is highly active, when the titanium alloy comes into contact with air, a layer of oxide film will quickly form on its surface, which will still have some impact on the welding quality.
