Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to a welding method for welding aluminum/steel dissimilar metals by using three beams of laser, belonging to the technical field of dissimilar metal welding.
Background
The aluminum alloy has the advantages of light weight, high strength, higher corrosion resistance, excellent machining performance and the like, and is widely applied to the aerospace industry, the aviation industry and the automobile industry. For a long time, steel is a main material used for automobile bodies, but with the improvement of fuel economy standards, the realization of energy conservation and emission reduction of automobiles through light weight becomes an important means, so that light aluminum alloy materials are popular in the automobile industry, and many automobile manufacturers adopt all-aluminum alloy to manufacture automobiles. For example, the audi automobile company in germany has already introduced automobiles with all-aluminum body frames in the mid 90's of the 20 th century. All aluminum vehicles, while successful in achieving overall vehicle weight savings, still exhibit problems during actual manufacturing and use. In practical use, people find that the safety of all-aluminum frame automobiles is different from that of the traditional steel automobiles, the safety performance is reduced, and in addition, the manufacturing cost and the selling price are higher. The high-strength aluminum alloy plate has higher forming and processing cost than that of the same steel, and the cost for processing the aluminum alloy welding machine is obviously higher than that of the steel, so that the automobile manufactured by adopting the full aluminum has higher selling price. The cost, the performance and the light weight effect are comprehensively considered, and the structural design of the aluminum/steel mixed material becomes the most important light weight means in the future. Aluminum alloy is a light metal, and its use presents a new problem for the method of joining structural members. For the automobile industry, the welding method is still an economic and reasonable mode, and the welding joint has higher strength and can ensure the safety performance of the automobile; the welding joint can also save raw materials, and the automobile is more environment-friendly while the weight of the automobile body is reduced. By comprehensively considering all factors, the connection of dissimilar metals in the automobile industry is mainly welding.
The aluminum alloy and the steel have large difference of material thermophysical properties and low solid solubility, and intermetallic compounds are formed in the welding heating process to influence the performance of a welding joint. Therefore, the welding of aluminum/steel dissimilar metals is one of the difficult problems in the welding field. At present, some researchers adopt a solid-phase welding and brazing method to realize the connection of aluminum/steel joints, but the application range of the aluminum/steel joints is limited to a certain extent, and parts with complex shapes are difficult to weld. The industrial welding method generally adopts methods such as brazing, diffusion welding and the like for connection, but is limited by process limitations, and the methods have the disadvantages of low welding efficiency, poor processing flexibility and difficult manufacture of large-size parts and complex structural members. Some researchers also weld the dissimilar metals of aluminum/steel by using friction stir welding and arc welding, and research results show that the two methods can realize the connection of the dissimilar metals of aluminum/steel, but the joint strength is low and the flexibility is poor, mainly because the two methods cannot realize the precise control of heat input quantity and inhibit the growth of an intermetallic compound layer in the aluminum/steel joint, so the joint strength is low. With the rise of laser welding, laser welding and brazing show great advantages in the connection of dissimilar metals, which is expressed by high energy density, small heat input amount and high welding efficiency of laser welding, and has certain application prospect in the field of aluminum/steel dissimilar metal welding. In the process of welding and soldering aluminum/steel dissimilar metals, one side of an aluminum base metal is melted and one side of a steel base metal is not melted through the adjustment of a welding process and heat input, and the melted aluminum base metal and a solid steel base metal are soldered to realize the welding of the aluminum/steel dissimilar metals. According to the literature report and research report of the prior publication, the aluminum/steel dissimilar metal welding joint with higher strength and better welding quality can be obtained by adopting laser melting-brazing welding. However, in the laser welding process, the heating range is small, the temperature gradient is large, and certain limitation exists on the accurate temperature field regulation and control required by interface reaction, weld forming and welding stress control.

When the circular spot 5 of the main beam overlaps the rectangular spot portion of the subsidiary beam irradiated on the aluminum plate side, the width d2 of the spot overlapping portion is less than or equal to 30% of the diameter of the circular spot 5, and preferably the width d2 of the spot overlapping portion is 0.2 mm. When the circular light spot 5 of the main light beam is separated from the rectangular light spot of the auxiliary light beam irradiated on one side of the aluminum plate 1, the separation distance d3 between the circular light spot 5 of the main light beam and the rectangular light spot of the auxiliary light beam irradiated on one side of the aluminum plate 1 is less than or equal to 20% of the diameter of the circular light spot 5, and preferably, the separation distance d3 between the circular light spot 5 and the rectangular light spot of the auxiliary light beam irradiated on one side of the aluminum plate 1 is 0.15 mm. When the circular light spot 5 and the rectangular light spot of the auxiliary light beam irradiated on one side of the aluminum plate 1 are within the above distance range, the welding process is stable. The rectangular light spot of the auxiliary light beam irradiated on one side of the steel plate 2 has an offset distance from the butt joint edge of the middle layer metal 8 and the steel plate 2, and the offset distance is 0-10% of the diameter of the circular light spot 5.
The three beams of laser are generated by three lasers respectively, the power of the three beams of laser can be adjusted, and the energy of the main beam is determined according to the thickness of the middle layer metal 8, the thickness of the aluminum plate 1 and the welding speed, so that the aluminum plate 1 and the middle layer metal 8 are guaranteed to be melted. The heat input and the temperature field distribution at the joint are regulated and controlled by controlling the power and the irradiation position of the three beams of laser, so that the melting of the intermediate layer metal 8 and one side of the aluminum plate 1 is ensured in the welding process, the non-melting of one side of the steel plate 2 is ensured, and the high-quality aluminum/steel melting brazing joint is finally obtained. Under the condition of ensuring that the steel plate 2 is not melted, the heat input of the rectangular light spot laser beam irradiated on the steel plate 2 is moderate, and the size of the intermetallic compound newly formed at the interface is larger due to overlarge heat input amount, so that the brittleness of a welding joint is increased, and the performance is reduced; if the heat input is too small, a large welding stress is easily generated, cracking occurs at the interface, and the welding performance is difficult to ensure.
(4) Welding according to set process parameters, performing inert gas protection on a welding part in a gas protection cover mode during welding, wherein the protection gas is argon with the purity of 99.99%, the gas flow of the protection gas passing through each gas protection cover is 15-20L/min, the gas protection covers are spherical gas protection covers arranged on welding heads of two low-power lasers and one high-power laser, the welding heads of the two low-power lasers and the high-power laser are both positioned at the lower end part of the spherical gas protection cover, the upper end part of the spherical gas protection cover is provided with a gas inlet pipe, the middle part of the spherical gas protection cover is provided with a multilayer copper wire mesh structure, the spherical gas protection cover is divided into an upper gas inlet chamber and a lower gas protection chamber by the multilayer copper wire mesh structure, the diameter of the spherical gas protection cover is equal to the welding speed vxX time t for cooling the molten pool to the room temperature, after the structure is adopted, the protection range of the gas protection cover can effectively cover the welding pool of the three beams of laser.
In the welding method for welding the aluminum/steel dissimilar metal by using the three beams of laser, two low-power rectangular facula laser beams are used as auxiliary beams to be respectively irradiated on one side of an aluminum plate 1 and one side of a steel plate 2, and the middle main beam provides enough heat to melt part of the aluminum plate 1 and the middle layer metal 8; the three laser beams all move along the welding direction 9 at the same speed, and the welding heat input is controlled by adjusting the welding process parameters, so that the distribution of temperature fields (namely the phenomena of high-temperature rapid cooling and large temperature gradient) during the welding of aluminum/steel dissimilar metals is improved; the welding interface reaction and the weld joint forming are improved, and the welding stress is reduced, so that a welding joint with better performance is obtained.
