Wherein the propeller shaft 100 includes a shaft tube 1, a spline housing 2, and a yoke 3. In this embodiment, in order to weld the transmission shaft 100, a magnetic pulse welder device (not shown) is provided, the magnetic pulse welder device includes a box and a support table, a power supply, a transformer, a high-voltage rectifier, a capacitor bank, vacuum switches, and a trigger device are disposed in the box, the power supply is connected to the high-voltage rectifier after being transformed by the transformer, the high-voltage rectifier is simultaneously connected to each capacitor of the capacitor bank, and each capacitor of the capacitor bank is respectively connected to each vacuum switch; the trigger device comprises a pulse generator, the signal input end of the pulse generator is connected with an alternating current power supply, and the signal output end of the pulse generator is simultaneously connected with each vacuum switch; the support table is provided with a first conductive coil 8 and a second conductive coil 9, and the first conductive coil 8 and the second conductive coil 9 are simultaneously connected with each vacuum switch.
In this embodiment, the welding method of the transmission shaft 100 specifically includes the following steps:
s1, inserting the shaft tube 1 into the first and second conductive coils 8 and 9, such that the first end 11 of the shaft tube 1 corresponds to the first conductive coil 8 and the second end 12 of the shaft tube 1 corresponds to the second conductive coil 9; wherein the first end 11 and the second end 12 of the shaft tube 1 are opposite ends of the shaft tube 1.

And S3, electrifying the first conductive coil 8 and the second conductive coil 9, so that the welding of the spline housing 2 and the first end 11 of the shaft tube 1 is realized through the magnetic field force formed by the first conductive coil 8, and the welding of the universal joint yoke 3 and the second end 12 of the shaft tube 1 is realized through the magnetic field force formed by the second conductive coil 9.
The specific way of enabling the first conductive coil 8 and the second conductive coil 9 to be powered is to start the pulse generator to charge each capacitor in the capacitor bank, and when the charging voltage reaches a set value, the trigger device is controlled to open the discharge switch, so that the capacitor discharges rapidly, even if the first conductive coil 8 and the second conductive coil 9 are powered.
It should be noted that, when the first conductive coil 8 and the second conductive coil 9 are energized, pulse currents are respectively generated, and a corresponding first electromagnetic field and a corresponding second electromagnetic field are respectively formed.

According to lenz's law, the first electromagnetic field generated by the first conductive coil 8 and the third magnetic field generated by the first induced current are opposite in direction and mutually repulsive. Thus, the interaction of the first electromagnetic field and the third electromagnetic field generates a strong repulsive force, and the first end portion 11 of the shaft tube 1 is subjected to a magnetic force in a radial direction, so that the first end portion 11 of the shaft tube 1 is compressed toward the axis of the shaft tube 1 in a very short time.

According to lenz's law, the second electromagnetic field generated by the second conductive coil 9 and the fourth magnetic field generated by the second induced current are opposite in direction and mutually repulsive. Thus, the interaction of the second electromagnetic field and the fourth electromagnetic field generates a strong repulsive force, and the second end portion 12 of the shaft tube 1 is subjected to a magnetic force in a radial direction, so that the second end portion 12 of the shaft tube 1 is compressed toward the axis line of the shaft tube 1 in a very short time. Under the action of magnetic field force, the second end part 12 of the shaft tube 1 rapidly impacts the welding part 31 of the universal joint yoke 3 at high speed and kinetic energy, metal atoms of the universal joint yoke 3 and the second end part 12 of the shaft tube 1 meet in the interatomic distance and are mutually extruded to form interatomic combination, a new metallurgical layer is formed on the combination surface, and when the process conditions are met, the welding of the second end part 12 of the shaft tube 1 and the universal joint yoke 3 can be realized.
