Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of connection structures, specifically to a connection pipe structure for a refrigeration system. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, air conditioning compressors and receiver-operated pipes are made of steel, aluminum, or stainless steel. These pipes are brazed to ensure the airtightness of the entire refrigeration system. Copper pipes offer excellent weldability, machinability, and corrosion resistance, but their high cost limits their application in low-cost designs. Aluminum pipes offer a significant cost advantage, are easy to process, and have excellent corrosion resistance, but welding them is difficult, requiring expensive silver solder, resulting in inconsistent weld quality, a high risk of leakage, and ultimately, higher overall costs. Stainless steel pipes offer high strength, excellent corrosion resistance, and low cost, but they are difficult to process, have poor weldability, require highly skilled welders, and also suffer from inconsistent weld quality and a high risk of leakage.

[0003] In summary, the welding of currently used aluminum or stainless steel pipes to connecting piping presents significant technological challenges, making it difficult to guarantee welding reliability. While pure copper pipes offer excellent performance, their cost is high. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a connecting pipe structure that combines excellent welding performance, processing performance, corrosion resistance, and reasonable cost to solve the problems in existing technologies.

One end of the connecting fitting is connected to the refrigeration system, and the other end of the connecting fitting abuts, sleeves, or inserts into the copper-steel composite connecting pipe. The copper-steel composite connecting pipe includes at least a steel layer and a copper layer arranged sequentially from the inside to the outside.

[0030] To facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art, the present invention will be further described below with reference to embodiments and accompanying drawings. The content mentioned in the embodiments is not intended to limit the present invention.

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, a refrigeration system connecting pipe structure includes a connecting fitting 1 and a copper-steel composite connecting pipe 2. One end of the connecting fitting 1 is connected to the refrigeration system, and the other end of the connecting fitting 1 abuts, sleeves, or inserts into the copper-steel composite connecting pipe 2. The copper-steel composite connecting pipe 2 includes at least a steel layer 21 and a copper layer 22 arranged sequentially from the inside to the outside.

[0032] This utility model discloses a refrigeration system connecting pipe structure that combines the advantages of copper (excellent welding performance and corrosion resistance) with steel (high strength and low cost) by welding a copper-steel composite connecting pipe 2 to connecting fittings 1, resulting in superior overall performance. Specifically, the inner steel layer 21 of the copper-steel composite connecting pipe 2 provides high strength, ensuring the mechanical properties of the connecting pipe, such as compressive strength and deformation resistance, while the outer copper layer 22 provides excellent corrosion resistance, making it particularly suitable for humid and refrigerant-corrosion environments in refrigeration systems. Compared to pure copper pipes, the copper-steel composite connecting pipe 2 reduces the amount of copper used, lowering material costs. Compared to aluminum or stainless steel pipes, its welding process is simpler, requiring no high-cost solder (such as silver solder) or highly skilled welders, resulting in lower overall manufacturing costs. Furthermore, the copper layer 22 is easy to bend and flare, facilitating on-site installation, while the steel layer 21 provides structural support, avoiding the deformation disadvantage of pure copper pipes. The copper-steel composite connecting pipe 2 and the connecting fitting 1 are physically connected by sleeve, plug, or abutment. Combined with the easy solderability of the copper layer 22, a highly airtight weld can be formed, significantly reducing the risk of refrigerant leakage in the refrigeration system. This utility model solves the problems of difficult welding of existing pure aluminum pipes and pure stainless steel pipes, as well as the high cost of pure copper pipes, achieving a balance between performance, reliability, and economy.

[0033] Furthermore, the refrigeration system includes an air conditioning compressor and a liquid receiver. When the compressor's connecting fitting 1 abuts, sleeves, or inserts into the copper-steel composite connecting pipe 2, the copper-steel composite connecting pipe 2 includes a copper layer, a steel layer 21, and a copper layer 22 arranged sequentially from the inside to the outside. That is, a copper layer is added inside the steel layer 21 to facilitate the insertion and welding of the connecting pipe inside. When the liquid receiver's connecting fitting 1 abuts, sleeves, or inserts into the copper-steel composite connecting pipe 2, the copper-steel composite connecting pipe 2 includes a steel layer 21 and a copper layer 22 arranged sequentially from the inside to the outside. The corresponding copper-steel composite connecting pipe 2 can be selected according to the requirements, and it has a wide range of applications.

[0034] Furthermore, the copper-steel composite connecting pipe 2 is manufactured by rolling the copper layer 22 and the steel layer 21 according to the required layers, and then stamping and stretching them. The copper layer 22 in the copper-steel composite connecting pipe 2 has a thickness of 35-60μm, and the steel layer 21 has a thickness of 0.8-1.5mm. The thickness of the copper layer 22 and the steel layer 21 before stamping and stretching is 20-30% thicker than that after stamping and stretching. The process is simple.

[0035] Furthermore, the area where the connecting fitting 1 and the copper-steel composite connecting pipe 2 are in contact with each other does not have a copper layer 22. That is, the steel layer 21 of the connecting fitting 1 and the copper-steel composite connecting pipe 2 are in contact with each other. The connecting fitting 1 is made of stainless steel or copper-plated steel, and the contact area is a steel-to-steel contact, which can improve the connection strength between the connecting fitting 1 and the copper-steel composite connecting pipe 2.

[0036] Furthermore, the steel layer 21 is a stainless steel layer or a low-carbon steel layer, wherein the stainless steel layer is made of 304 or 301, and the low-carbon steel layer is made of SPCC or SPCE; the copper layer 22 is a copper layer, wherein the copper layer is made of T2.

[0037] Furthermore, the connecting fitting 1 and the copper-steel composite connecting pipe 2 are welded together using laser welding, which helps to improve the weld strength. Specifically, the area where the copper-steel composite connecting pipe 2 is welded to the connecting fitting 1 does not have a copper layer 22. That is, after removing the outer copper layer 22, the laser welding only acts on the inner steel layer 21, avoiding the high reflectivity of the copper layer 22 to the laser and improving energy utilization. Moreover, the connecting fitting 1 is made of stainless steel or copper-plated steel, and the laser welding directly forms a fusion weld between the connecting fitting 1 and the steel layer 21 of the copper-steel composite connecting pipe 2. The weld is a steel-steel bond, avoiding the formation of brittle copper-iron phases and significantly improving the joint strength.

[0038] Furthermore, the specific steps for laser welding the connecting fitting 1 to the copper-steel composite connecting pipe 2 are as follows:

[0039] (1) Remove the copper layer from the copper-steel composite connecting pipe 2 in part;

[0040] (2) Assembly and positioning: Connect the copper-steel composite connecting pipe 2 and the connecting fitting 1 by abutting, sleeve or plugging as required.

[0041] (3) Laser welding is performed on the connection between the connecting fitting 1 and the copper-steel composite connecting pipe 2, wherein the laser power is 400-900W, the welding speed is 5-10mm / s, the laser focal length is 15-25mm, the spot diameter is 2-2.4mm, and the laser beam incident angle is 41°-49°.

[0042] Furthermore, in step (3), for low-pressure systems (≤6.9MPa), wireless self-fusion welding is selected; for medium- and high-pressure systems (6.9-25MPa), filler wire laser welding is selected to increase the penetration depth. The filler wire used is Cr with a diameter of 0.5-2mm. 12 MoV, with a wire feeding speed of 75-85 mm / min.

[0043] Furthermore, in step (3), after the laser welding completes one revolution, the laser head continues to travel along the original trajectory for 3-5mm to ensure consistent weld depth at the arc initiation and termination points.

[0044] Furthermore, the connecting fitting 1 and the copper-steel composite connecting pipe 2 are also welded by carbon dioxide shielded welding, ion welding, high-frequency welding or argon arc welding. Among them, carbon dioxide shielded welding, ion welding, high-frequency welding and argon arc welding are existing welding methods, and the corresponding welding method can be selected according to the requirements.
