[0015] The present invention provides a weld structure which solves defects that a traditional box-shaped structure needs to be adjusted and corrected, resulting in strength loss and performance degradation. A stable and enclosed box-shaped structure is formed by inserting and interlocking the upper and lower cover plates, and the rigidity of the box-shaped structure is increased.
[0016] A surface of the first cover plate 10 is provided with a plurality of first slots 11 and a plurality of second slots 12. The first slots 11 are arranged at intervals along the first direction, and each of the first slots 11 is insertedly matched with each of the web plates 30 in a one-to-one correspondence.

Grooves 50 are provided at sides of each of the first slots 11 and the second slots 12 facing the second cover plate 20.
[0017] Specifically, it provides the first cover plate 10, and the first cover plate 10 is insertedly matched with the web plates 30 and the rib plates 40 by providing the first slots 11 and the second slots 12.
[0018] Further, the grooves 50 are provided at the sides of each of the first slot 11 and the second slot 12 facing the second cover plate 20, which facilitates the zero-gap rapid and precise assembly of the inserted interlocking structure. By providing the groove 50s, the back forming of the weld is further improved and the penetration of a weld root is improved, which not only meets the assembly requirements but also improves the assembly efficiency.
[0019] In a possible implementation, the groove 50 is a single V-shaped groove provided at the side of the first cover plate 10 facing the second cover plate 20.
[0020] A surface of the second cover plate 20 is provided with a plurality of third slots 21 and a plurality of fourth slots 22. The third slots 21 are arranged at intervals along the first direction, and each of the third slots 21 is insertedly matched with each of the web plates 30 in a one-to-one correspondence. The fourth slots 22 are arranged at intervals along the second direction, and each of the fourth slots 22 is insertedly matched with each of the rib plate 40 in a one-to-one correspondence. Grooves 50 are provided at sides of each of the third slots 21 and the fourth slots 22 facing the first cover plate 10.
[0021] It provides the second cover plate 20, and the second cover plate 20 is insertedly matched with the web plates 30 and the rib plates 40 by providing the third slots 21 and the fourth slots 22.
[0022] Furthermore, the grooves 50 are provided at the sides of each of the third slots 21 and the fourth slots 22 facing the second cover plate 10, which facilitates the zero-gap rapid and precise assembly of the inserted interlocking structure. By providing the groove 50, the back forming of the weld is further improved and the penetration of a weld root is improved, which not only meets the assembly requirements but also improves the assembly efficiency.
[0023] In a possible implementation, the groove 50 is a single V-shaped groove provided at the side of the first cover plate 10 facing the second cover plate 20.
[0024] In some possible implementations, the first cover plate 10, the second cover plate 20, the web plates 30 and the rib plates 40 are all made of high-strength weather-resistant steel.
[0025] With the increase of the running speed of the vehicle and urban rail trains, a requirement for lightweight trains is more urgent. Common low-alloy steel is replaced with the high-strength weather-resistant steel for providing lightweight design, which utilizes engineering characteristics of the high-strength weather-resistant steel, such as high strength, good plasticity, excellent fatigue performance, and good economy.
[0026] In a possible implementation, the weld structure is made of high-strength weather-resistant steel, and the thickness is thinned from the original 8 to 12 mm to 5 to 8 mm, which is at least 20% lighter than a traditional closed box-shaped structure.
[0027] In a possible implementation, the weld structure is applied to a chassis of a rail vehicle.
[0028] In a possible implementation, the weld structure is a bolster beam of the rail vehicle.
[0029] As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 6, the present invention provides a weld device for a weld structure, including a support portion, a weld portion 100 and an adjustment portion. The support portion is formed with a support surface for supporting the weld structure; the weld portion 100 is connected to the support portion for welding the weld structure; the adjustment portion is connected to the support portion and abuts against a weld surface of the weld structure. During a welding process of the weld structure by the weld portion, the adjustment portion regulates a flatness of the weld structure by adjusting a magnitude of a force acting on the weld surface of the weld structure
[0030] The weld device for the weld structure solves defects of strength loss and performance degradation due to manual adjustment and correction, inability to effectively suppress welding deformation, large workload of repeated check, inability to accurately and dynamically adjust the weld structure based on the evolution trend of deformation and change amount of a weld structure, and poor anti-deformation effect. By providing multi-point flexible support at a support surface, welding deformation is finely controlled, welding defects are precisely suppressed, microstructure performance is effectively improved, the manufacturing accuracy is increased, the manufacturing cost is reduced, and the production efficiency is greatly improved.
[0031] The support portion includes a support table 60 and a drive unit 70. A surface of the support table 60 forms a support surface and the drive unit 70 is connected to the support table 60 to adjust the rotation angle of the support table 60.
[0032] The present invention provides the support portion. The weld structure is supported by providing the support table 60, and the support table 60 is flappable through the drive unit and requirements of welding are satisfied from different angles.
[0033] It should be noted that a traditional bolster beam is welded using a single welding mechanism, that is, a single welding gun. In the process of welding the bolster beam, there are problems such as manual turning, repeated positioning and clamping, which makes it difficult to clamp and form the bolster in one step. Therefore, the processing accuracy of the bolster beam is affected and the labor intensity is increased. Meanwhile, the bolster beam is supported singly in the related art and the post-welding manufacturing accuracy of the box-shaped bolster structure still does not meet the adjustment-free standard under a single welding deformation suppression measure.
[0034] It should also be noted that the present invention does not limit the specific structure of the drive unit 70. The drive unit 70 includes a motor, a bearing, a support mechanism, a transmission mechanism, etc. For simplicity, the specific structure of the drive unit 70 are not elaborated too much in the present application. In practical applications, those skilled in the art can refer to the arrangement in related fields as required.
[0035] The weld portion 100 is a laser-arc hybrid welding mechanism connected with the support portion.
[0036] The present invention provides the weld portion 100. By combining laser-arc hybrid welding with the support portion and the adjustment portion, an entire manufacturing process from development of a product structure, research and development on the weld device to control of a welding process is innovated systematically, barriers of difficult assembly, low efficiency and poor stability of a closed box-shaped structure using traditional laser-arc hybrid welding are effectively broken through, engineering problems that a laser-arc hybrid welding gun has a large size and a traditional assembly mode has many spatial interferences are solved, and bottlenecks that welding porosity is difficult to avoid and a back has poor forming during laser-arc hybrid welding of medium and thick plates are broken through.
[0037] In a possible implementation, laser-arc hybrid welding cooperates with the groove 50 of the corresponding weld seam at the back of the weld structure, which greatly facilitates the escape of gas inside the weld pool of the laser-arc hybrid welding from the back of the weld pool, and effectively suppresses the welding porosity defects of laser-arc hybrid welding of a medium and thick plate.
[0038] In a possible implementation, the laser-arc hybrid welding mechanism completes the welding using a process of one-time welding and forming of a weld surface during the welding process of the weld structure.
[0039] The adjustment portion includes a plurality of magnetic units 80 and a plurality of sensor units 90. The magnetic units 80 are arranged at the support table 60 to position the weld structure through magnetic adsorption; and the sensor units 90 are arranged at the support table 60 to feed back welding parameters used in the welding process of the weld structure to the weld portion 100.
[0040] Within the adjustment portion, the magnetic units 80 and the sensor units 90 are arranged at a surface of the support table 60, that is, the support surface, to position the closed box-shaped weld structure made of the high-strength weather-resistant steel and obtain corresponding parameters during the welding process, and engineering goals of fine control of weld deformation, effective suppression of weld defects and significant improvement of weld structure performance are obtained.
[0041] It should be noted that the enclosed box-shaped structure of high-strength weather-resistant steel is complex, with a large number of weld seams, a small welding spacing (the minimum spacing is 5 mm), and strict assembly requirements, and the assembly error must be controlled within the range of 0 to 0.5 mm and assembly is difficult, and the traditional assembly mode is difficult to meet the special assembly requirements of laser-arc hybrid welding.
[0042] It is particularly stated here that although laser-arc hybrid welding has engineering characteristics such as small welding deformation, high manufacturing precision, strong penetration capability, good weld quality, fast welding speed, and high operating efficiency, it still has disadvantages that the laser-arc hybrid welding gun has large volume, a welding space is easily interfered, a traditional positioning and clamping device occupies a large amount of physical space when the laser-arc hybrid welding is used for the enclosed box-shaped structure and it is impossible to obtain full-automatic spatial welding of the enclosed box-shaped structure during laser-arc hybrid welding.
[0043] In a possible implementation, the enclosed box-shaped weld structure made of high-strength weather-resistant steel is adsorbed by arranging magnetic units 80 at the support table 60.
[0044] In a possible implementation, each of the magnetic units 80 is an electromagnet.
[0045] In a possible implementation, a plurality of high-precision electromagnets are embedded in the support table 60, and electromagnet adsorption control modules are distributed at multiple points along the length and width of the support table 60. The arrangement position of the electromagnet adsorption control modules is provided based on the workpiece support, positioning, and constraint requirements. Spacing between different electromagnet adsorption control modules is generally 500 to 800 mm. Meanwhile, the position of the electromagnet control module is continuously adjusted and accurately set with a control accuracy of 0.1 mm by a servo motor along the length, width, and height of the support table 60. A high-precision processing assembly is inlaid at each electromagnet adsorption control module to precisely position and support the box-shaped components. The magnetic field strength of the electromagnet adsorption control module can be adjusted by setting a magnitude of current to ensure that a support adsorption force of each module is digitally set and quantitatively adjusted between 0 and 50 KN. Through the precise control of the electromagnet position and adsorption force, anti-deformation amount precise setting, multi-point precise support positioning and multi-point flexible adsorption and compaction of the box-shaped with an inserted structure in the three directions of length, width and height can be implemented to ensure the precise assembly of the box-shaped structure and effectively constrain the welding process of the box-shaped structure. The assembly mode of electromagnet adsorption changes the unfavorable situation of many spatial physical interferences in traditional assembly, and guarantees the spatial accessibility of laser-arc hybrid welding to the greatest extent. Meanwhile, the assembly mode of electromagnet adsorption ensures precise setting of the spatial position and rigid constraints of the welding process, flexible compaction and dynamic regulation, and refined and real-time regulation capability of welding deformation is greatly improved
[0046] In a possible implementation, the electromagnet will not produce welding thermal demagnetization phenomenon compared with the permanent magnet, and the electromagnetic control module distributed with discrete point can independently output the spatial position and adsorption compaction force. The anti-deformation amount and adsorption compaction force can be regulated by the digital and real-time setting of the support position to regulate welding deformation flexibly and finely. Requirements for large-volume laser-arc hybrid welding gun, wide working space and the special assembly and welding requirements of strict assembly accuracy are satisfied.
[0047] As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 7, the present solution provides a weld method using such weld device, including: obtaining a first weld characteristic value of the weld structure during a welding process, where the first weld characteristic value is a deformation amount parameter of the weld structure; generating a first adjustment strategy for regulating a deformation amount of the weld surface of the weld structure based on the first weld characteristic value; and performing anti-deformation adjustment in real time at the weld structure during the welding process based on the first adjustment strategy.
[0048] In detail, the present invention further provides the weld method for the weld device, which solves defects of inability to avoid adjustment and correction to a weld structure, inability to effectively suppress welding deformation, large workload of repeated check, inability to accurately and dynamically adjust the weld structure based on the evolution trend of deformation and change amount of a weld structure, and poor anti-deformation effect. By adjusting a magnitude of the multi-point flexible force at the support surface, zero-gap rapid and precise assembly, multi-point flexible constraint and multi-energy field coordinated high-performance welding are provided, and engineering goals of fine control of welding deformation, effective suppression of welding defects and substantial improvement of weld microstructure performance are simultaneously achieved.
[0049] Obtaining the first weld characteristic value of the weld structure during the welding process includes: obtaining a first deformation characteristic value, a second deformation characteristic value and a third deformation characteristic value of the weld structure during the welding process, where the first deformation characteristic value is a deformation area parameter of the weld structure, the second deformation characteristic value is a deformation force parameter corresponding to the first deformation characteristic value and the third deformation characteristic value is a friction force parameter corresponding to the first deformation characteristic value; and generating the first weld characteristic value based on the first deformation characteristic value, the second deformation characteristic value and the third deformation characteristic value.
[0050] This provides obtaining the first weld characteristic value of the weld structure during the welding process, and corresponding first weld characteristic value is generated by obtaining the deformation characteristic value of the weld structure during the welding process.
[0051] In an embodiment, generating the first adjustment strategy for regulating the deformation amount of the weld surface of the weld structure based on the first weld characteristic value includes: obtaining a preset adjustment area corresponding to the weld surface of the weld structure, and obtaining all adjustment portions in the preset adjustment area based on the first deformation characteristic value; generating a first adjustment characteristic value of each of obtained adjustment portions based on the second deformation characteristic value, where the first adjustment characteristic value is an adsorption force parameter of each of the obtained adjustment portions; generating a second adjustment characteristic value of each of the obtained adjustment portions based on the second deformation characteristic value and the third deformation characteristic value, where the second adjustment characteristic value is a friction force parameter between each of the obtained adjustment portions and the weld structure; and generating the first adjustment strategy for the preset adjustment area based on the first adjustment characteristic value and the second adjustment characteristic value.
[0052] This provides an implementation for generating the first adjustment strategy for regulating the deformation amount of the weld surface of the weld structure, anti-deformation adjustment of the weld structure during the welding process is implemented by adjusting a magnitude of an adsorption force of the magnetic unit corresponding to the deformation area based on the adsorption force parameter.
[0053] Furthermore, when the magnitude of the adsorption force of the magnetic unit 80 is adjusted, the friction force parameter needs to be monitored to avoid the problem that the weld structure moves during the welding process due to insufficient adsorption force.
[0054] In an embodiment, generating the first adjustment strategy for the preset adjustment area based on the first adjustment characteristic value and the second adjustment characteristic value includes: constructing a digital twin model based on the weld structure; obtaining a first twin adjustment characteristic value of the digital twin model based on the first adjustment characteristic value; obtaining a second twin adjustment characteristic value of the digital twin model based on the second adjustment characteristic value; performing a determination based on the second twin adjustment characteristic value; and generating the first adjustment strategy based on the first adjustment characteristic value in accordance with a determination that the second twin adjustment characteristic value satisfies a preset adsorption condition; or generating the first adjustment strategy based on the second adjustment characteristic value in accordance with a determination that the second twin adjustment characteristic value does not satisfy a preset adsorption condition.
[0055] This provides an implementation for generating the first adjustment strategy based on the preset adjustment area. By constructing the digital twin model, the anti-deformation amount of the weld structure is calculated, and the adsorption force parameter between the support table 60 and the weld structure are verified to avoid the problem that the weld structure moves on the support table 60 due to insufficient adsorption force of the magnetic unit 80.
[0056] In some possible embodiments, performing anti-deformation adjustment in real time at the weld structure during the welding process based on the first adjustment strategy includes: obtaining an instant weld area of the weld structure and dynamically fitting the instant weld area with the preset adjustment area, obtaining a dynamically fit first instant adjustment area and a dynamically fit second instant adjustment area, where the first instant adjustment area is an area corresponding to first deformation characteristic value, and the second instant adjustment area is an area within a preset range around the first instant adjustment area; obtaining a magnetic field distortion parameter in the second instant adjustment area and performing a determination; and generating the first adjustment strategy based on a preset distortion threshold in accordance with a determination that the magnetic field distortion parameter does not satisfy the preset distortion threshold.
[0057] This provides performing anti-deformation adjustment in real time at the weld structure. By monitoring the magnetic field within the preset range around the deformation area of the weld structure, a problem of excessive disturbance to the magnetic field in the surrounding area caused by adjusting the magnetic unit 80 corresponding to the deformation area is avoided, the weld quality is guaranteed, and dynamic regulation of welding deformation in the hybrid welding process is satisfied to ensure engineering requirements of accurate weld position and enhanced weld stability.
[0058] In an embodiment, after performing anti-deformation adjustment in real time at the weld structure during the welding process based on the first adjustment strategy, the method further includes: obtaining a second weld characteristic value and a third weld characteristic value of the weld structure during the welding process, where the second weld characteristic value is a welding trajectory parameter of the weld structure, and the third characteristic value is a weld pool parameter of the weld structure; generating a second adjustment strategy for regulating a magnetic field direction of the adjustment portion based on the second weld characteristic value and the third weld characteristic value; and stirring the weld pool of the weld structure during the welding process using magnetic field in real time based on the second adjustment strategy.
[0059] This provides stirring the weld pool of the weld structure using the magnetic field. By coupling and regulating laser and arc energy fields of the laser-arc hybrid welding using an alternating magnetic field generated by the magnetic unit 80, a plasma is effectively suppressed, a droplet flight speed and a weld pool flow speed of the laser-arc hybrid welding are increased, the thermal transmission and energy efficiency of the laser and arc are improved, and more stable droplet transition and better arc directivity are obtained. A stirring effect of the magnetic field is formed inside the weld pool to further refine the weld grain structure and enhance the gas escape capability. The mechanical properties and fatigue strength of a hybrid weld joint under the superposition of the magnetic field are improved by at least 5% compared with the traditional hybrid weld joint.
[0060] It should be noted that the hybrid welding has concentrated heat source and small action area. It is extremely sensitive to the changes of spatial positions caused by the dynamic fine deformation during the welding process of large and complex components. If the fine deformation in the weld process is not intervened in real time, the cumulative deformation will also cause the subsequent weld position to deviate greatly, and the stability and reliability of the weld process is affected. Therefore, the weld deformation must be intervened in real time and dynamically regulated.
[0061] It should also be noted that gas escape is accelerated by utilizing the stirring effect of electromagnetic force inside the weld pool and welding porosity defects are effectively reduced by combining laser-arc hybrid welding and the magnetic field generated by electromagnet adsorption. An arc magnetic bias blowing phenomenon is suppressed by adjusting the direction of the electromagnetic force, and the arc and droplet transition is kept more stable. Through the coupling regulation of magnetic field, laser, and arc multi-energy field, the grain structure at a weld joint is further refined, and the mechanical properties and fatigue strength of the composite weld joint are significantly improved.
[0062] In other words, the present invention changes the welding manufacturing mode of the enclosed box-shaped structure from structural design and development, weld device development to welding process development through the comprehensive application of the above innovative methods. The manufacturing accuracy, connection strength and welding quality of the enclosed inserted box-shaped component are significantly improved.
