Description

A kind of friction stir welding tools for lap joint
Technical field
The invention belongs to metal material agitating friction welding field, a kind of New type agitation welding tool specifically designed for lap joint.
Background technology
Friction stir welding (FSW) is the novel solid phase joining technique of one that Britain's institute of welding (TWI) was invented in 1991, and this technology is particularly suitable for the connection of the non-ferrous metals such as almag.The general principle of friction stir welding is inserted the faying face of workpiece by the on-consumable stirring tool (multidiameter be made up of the shaft shoulder and mixing needle) be rotating, by the plastic deformation work heat production that the frictional heat between the shaft shoulder and workpiece and mixing needle and workpiece material occur, workpiece to be welded is warming up to plastifying state, can there is fragmentation in workpiece composition surface under the agitating friction effect of stirring tool; Then stirring tool moves forward along workpiece joint line, and plastifying material cools, and namely forms the weld seam of solid diffusivity.
Through the development of more than 20 years, FSW obtained comparatively extensive use in fields such as Aero-Space, rail vehicle, shipbuilding, automobiles.Some structural member in Aero-Space and rail vehicle field often can relate to lap joint, fuselage as aircraft rides on the covering of 2 ××× aluminium alloys by the crossbeam of 7 ××× line aluminium alloys, and the vehicle body of rail vehicle overlaps welding by 6 ××× line aluminium alloy extrudates of hollow and forms.Traditional welding technology, when welding aluminum alloy, is understood defects such as producing pore, crackle because of the special physicochemical property of aluminium alloy self, be mingled with, is caused strength of joint coefficient very low.FSW has unique advantage on welding aluminum alloy, can not produce the defect that melting welding is such, have higher strength of joint coefficient.FSW is existing in aluminum alloy butt joint more successfully to be applied, and in lap joint, FSW still exists certain technical barrier.First, when welding lap joint, stirring tool falls in workpiece composition surface, and the composition surface comparing banjo fixing butt jointing is parallel to stirring tool, and the composition surface of lap joint is more difficult to be broken; Secondly, for forming lap weld, mixing needle will penetrate upper plate workpiece and be inserted into lower plate certain depth, mixing needle can extrude lower sheet materials after inserting lower plate, overlap joint interface is bent, extend to intermediate weld region, thus form the unconjugated interfacial migration defect of crackle shape, this defect is called as " hook-shaped defect " in lap joint.In FSW process, stirring tool can cause material generation vertical direction in stirring area to flow, thus drive mixing needle peripheral material also vertical migration to occur, add that the stirring action that mixing needle peripheral material is subject to is limited, cause hook-shaped defect to be a kind of inherent shortcoming in FSW lap joint.Hook-shaped defect can reduce effective carrying thickness of joint, provides formation of crack and causes stress to concentrate, and thus seriously reduces joint static strength and the fatigue strength of lap joint.So optimize FSW lap joint process must alleviate hook-shaped defect, comprise its size of reduction, change its shape.At present, the method alleviating hook-shaped defect mainly contains two kinds: one is Optimum Experiment parameter, such as reduces rotating speed or increase weldering speed to reduce hook-shaped flaw size; Be design a special stirring tool, change superplastic material flow path, stirring area, thus improve overlap joint interfacial migration form, alleviate hook-shaped defect.The mixing needle of the stirring tool that FSW commonly uses is common cylindrical thread shape or tapered tread shape, and the shaft shoulder is concave shaped.When using these general tools to weld lap joint, more serious hook-shaped defect can be produced in weld seam, cause strength of joint very low (strength factor mostly is less than 30%), only cannot alleviate hook-shaped defect by Optimum Experiment technological parameter.
Summary of the invention
For above-mentioned prior art, for alleviating " hook-shaped " defect, improve friction stir welding (FSW) lap joint intensity, the invention provides a kind of friction stir welding tools for lap joint, the mixing needle of the special shape designed in the present invention can effectively improve stirring area material flow path.
In order to solve the problems of the technologies described above, the technical scheme that the friction stir welding tools that the present invention is used for lap joint is achieved is: this instrument is made up of the shaft shoulder and mixing needle two parts, the shape of described mixing needle is truncated cone, the handle of described truncated cone is connected with the described shaft shoulder, the large bottom face of described truncated cone is provided with a circular shrinkage hole, and the outer surface of described truncated cone is axially arranged with three uniform in the circumferential circular grooves along it; The length of described mixing needle is h, h=d+ △ d, and wherein, d is the thickness of the upper plate of workpiece to be welded, and △ d is the degree of depth that mixing needle is inserted into the lower plate of workpiece to be welded, △ d < 0.5d; The diameter of the large end of described truncated cone is D 1, the handle diameter of described truncated cone is D 2, D 2=d+1, the cone angle of described truncated cone is 2 α, α=7 ° ~ 9 °, D 1=2h*tan α+D 2; The diameter of described circular shrinkage hole on the large bottom face of described truncated cone is D 3, D 3=0.75D 1, the degree of depth of described circular shrinkage hole is h 1=0.25h; Three circular grooves in described frustoconical external surface are D with the diameter of described circular groove respectively 3outline line tangent, the end face indent inclined plane of the described shaft shoulder, described inclination angle of inclined plane is 5 ° ~ 7 °, and the diameter of the described shaft shoulder is D, D=3d.
Compared with prior art, the invention has the beneficial effects as follows:
When adopting the present invention to be used for the friction stir welding tools welding FSW lap joint of lap joint, the inclined side surfaces of Frusto-conical mixing needle can produce a thrust obliquely to plasticized metal around faying surface, this thrust can produce a horizontal direction component, around faying surface, plasticized metal is under the effect of this horizontal force, there is a certain amount of horizontal movement, this horizontal movement can alleviate moving both vertically of plasticized metal, thus reduces the vertical migration tendency at overlap joint interface.And three circular grooves of the indent disc of mixing needle bottom face and side, all can change the flowing road strength of weld metal zone plasticized metal, thus improve weld metal zone material flowing, abundant broken overlapping regions interface, weld metal zone metal occurs to mix more fully.Therefore, in postwelding weld seam, hook-shaped flaw size reduces greatly, and strength of joint coefficient is also significantly improved.
