Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of composite solder pad technology, and in particular to a large-area welding device for IGBT packaging based on composite solder pads. Background Technology

[0002] With the surge in demand for high-power IGBT modules in fields such as new energy vehicles, photovoltaic inverters, and rail transit, the large-area welding process in the IGBT packaging stage has become a core bottleneck restricting module reliability and mass production efficiency. Currently, existing IGBT welding equipment still has the following technical pain points in large-area welding scenarios: First, the planar base plate heat transfer mode leads to excessively high heat flux density in the central area of ​​the composite solder sheet, which easily causes solder overmelting and loss, while the heat input in the edge area is insufficient, resulting in incomplete welding. The cooling system lacks a flow guiding and collection structure, and the uneven distribution of coolant leads to large fluctuations in the cooling rate. During the crystallization process of the composite solder sheet, internal stress is generated due to disordered grain growth, which causes weld layer cracks. Second, in terms of positioning accuracy, multi-layer tooling relies on multiple sets of independent fasteners for splicing, which leads to misalignment between the composite solder sheet and the DBC ceramic backing plate, resulting in bridging defects after welding. In terms of pressing method, rigid pressing is prone to causing the backing plate to warp or even crack. Utility Model Content

[0018] Please see the appendix Figure 1 -Appendix Figure 3This utility model provides an embodiment of a large-area welding device for IGBT packaging based on composite solder sheets, comprising a base plate 1, an inlet 2 on one outer wall of the base plate 1, an outlet 7 on the other outer wall of the base plate 1, an inlet groove 3, a guide groove 4, and a spiral flow channel 5 inside the base plate 1, and the spiral flow channel 5 is connected to the guide groove 4, the inlet groove 3, and the outlet groove 6; a gradient truncated cone 8 is provided on the upper surface of the base plate 1 to ensure uniform heating of the composite solder sheet in the first through cavity 13. The base plate 1 has four fixing pins 9 at its four corners, and a welding sheet fixing component 10 is provided on the upper surface of the base plate 1. The fixing pins 9 are used to position the welding sheet fixing component 10, and the welding sheet fixing component 10 is used to support the composite welding sheet. A first fixing ring 11 is provided at the position of the fixing pin 9 on the welding sheet fixing component 10. A first through cavity 13 is provided inside the welding sheet fixing component 10. A liner fixing component 14 is provided on the welding sheet fixing component 10. The first fixing ring 11 cooperates with the fixing pin 9 to position the welding sheet fixing component 10, and the first through cavity 13 is used to support the composite welding sheet. For placing composite welding sheets; a second through cavity 16 is provided on the liner fixing member 14, and a second fixing ring 15 is provided on the liner fixing member 14 at the position corresponding to the fixing pin 9. The second through cavity 16 is used to place the IGBT liner and is aligned with the first through cavity 13. The second fixing ring 15 cooperates with the fixing pin 9 to position the liner fixing member 14; a first fixing hole 17 is provided on the upper surface of the liner fixing member 14, and a cover plate 18 is provided on the upper surface of the liner fixing member 14. The cover plate 18 is provided at the position corresponding to the fixing pin 9. A third fixing ring 19 is provided, and a second fixing hole 20 is provided at the position of the cover plate 18 corresponding to the first fixing hole 17. The third fixing ring 19 cooperates with the fixing pin 9 to position the cover plate 18. The first fixing hole 17 and the second fixing hole 20 are fitted with bolts 21. Bolts 21 are threaded into both the first fixing hole 17 and the second fixing hole 20. An elastic pressure plate 12 is sleeved on the bolt 21. The bolt 21 is used to fix the cover plate 18 and the liner plate fixing member 14. The elastic pressure plate 12 is used to apply uniform pressure to the liner plate.

[0019] Working Principle: Using this invention, firstly, the base plate 1 is placed horizontally on the welding platform. The fixing pins 9 at the four corners of the base plate 1 are used as positioning references. The welding sheet fixing member 10 is inserted into the fixing pins 9 through its corresponding first fixing ring 11, ensuring precise contact between the welding sheet fixing member 10 and the upper surface of the base plate 1. Then, the composite welding sheet is placed into the first through cavity 13 within the welding sheet fixing member 10, ensuring complete contact between the lower surface of the composite welding sheet and the gradient truncated cone 8 on the base plate 1. Next, the liner fixing member 14 is inserted into the fixing pins 9 through its second fixing ring 15, ensuring coaxial alignment between the second through cavity 16 of the liner fixing member 14 and the first through cavity 13. The IGBT liner is then placed into the second through cavity 16, ensuring precise alignment between the lower surface of the liner and the upper surface of the composite welding sheet. Finally, the cover plate is placed on top. 18. By fitting the third fixing ring 19 of the cover plate 18 onto the fixing pin 9, the second fixing hole 20 of the cover plate 18 is aligned with the first fixing hole 17 of the liner fixing member 14. The elastic pressure plate 12 is fitted onto the bolt 21, and then the bolt 21 is screwed into the first fixing hole 17 and the second fixing hole 20. The elastic deformation of the elastic pressure plate 12 applies uniform preload to the liner, completing the multi-layer coaxial fixing of the base plate 1, welding piece fixing member 10, liner fixing member 14, and cover plate 18, avoiding component misalignment during welding. The welding furnace is started and heated to the composite welding piece melting temperature. The heat is transferred to the main body of the base plate 1 through the welding platform. The gradient truncated cone 8 on the upper surface of the base plate 1 utilizes its structural characteristic of gradually changing dimensions from the center to the edge to efficiently and uniformly transfer heat from the base plate 1 to the first... The composite weld sheet within the through cavity 13, with its gradient design of the gradient truncated cone 8, compensates for differences in heat loss during large-area welding. This keeps the thermal conductivity deviation of different areas of the composite weld sheet within a controllable range, avoiding the problems of overheating and melting at the center and underheating and incomplete melting at the edges caused by traditional planar heat transfer. This ensures that the composite weld sheet melts synchronously as a whole, laying the foundation for reliable bonding with the liner plate. After the composite weld sheet has completely melted and initially wetted with the IGBT liner plate, the cooling system is activated. Coolant is introduced through the inlet 2 on one side of the outer wall of the base plate 1. The coolant first enters the inlet tank 3 within the base plate 1 for buffering and distribution, and then is evenly introduced into the spiral flow channel 5 through the guide channel 4. The spiral flow channel 5 covers the core welding area of ​​the base plate 1 and is spaced apart from the gradient truncated cone 8, which can efficiently absorb the heat from the base plate 1 and the gradient truncated cone 8. The residual heat from the cone 8 is used to lower the temperature of the composite welded sheet through heat exchange. The coolant that has absorbed heat is collected in the drain trough 6 inside the base plate 1 and discharged from the drain port 7 on the outer wall of the other side of the base plate 1, forming a closed-loop cooling path consisting of the inlet 2, inlet trough 3, guide trough 4, spiral flow channel 5, drain trough 6, and drain port 7. This achieves precise control of the cooling rate, guides the composite welded sheet to crystallize orderly from the edge to the center, reduces internal stress caused by disordered crystallization, and avoids weld layer cracks. During the cooling and crystallization process, the elastic pressure plate 12 connected by bolt 21 maintains an elastic compression state. Its deformation force can adapt to the slight dimensional changes of the liner and the composite welded sheet, ensuring that the two are always tightly fitted, squeezing out residual air in the weld layer, and reducing the weld layer void rate. After the composite welded sheet has completely solidified, bolt 21 is unscrewed.Remove the elastic pressure plate 12 and the cover plate 18, then sequentially remove the liner fixing component 14 and the welding piece fixing component 10, finally obtaining a finished product with a reliable connection between the composite welding piece and the IGBT liner, completing the entire large-area welding process.
