Resistance spot welding relies on the flow of electrical current through contacting metal workpieces and across the interface resistance between them to generate heat to melt weld the connections together. However, when welding a poor thick metal workpiece, the distance between the thin plate side and the thick plate side from the electrode cap is different due to the difference in thickness, which causes the difference in heat generation and heat dissipation between the two workpieces, and the amount of heat for nugget melting is large at the thick plate side and small at the thin plate side, resulting in the displacement of the nugget center to the thick plate side during welding, and finally the nugget strength is reduced. It is therefore important how to better control the heat balance between the differential thick workpieces so that the molten metal can be melted and cooled to solidify in a desirably controlled manner.

Detailed Description
The inventor of the invention has extensively and deeply studied and found through a large number of experiments that when a metal workpiece with poor thickness is resistance spot welded, the problems of flux offset and low welding strength of resistance spot welding of the workpiece with poor thickness under normal conditions can be well avoided by using a welding regulating element with poor thickness on the thin workpiece side and using a traditional electrode on the thick workpiece side, and then resistance spot welding is carried out, so that the joint strength is greatly improved, and a better welding spot is obtained, and the invention is completed on the basis.
The invention has the main advantages that:
when the method and the assembly for resistance spot welding of the differential thickness metal workpiece are used, when the first welding workpiece and the second welding workpiece are made of the same material and have different thicknesses, the first welding electrode with the differential thickness welding regulating element is arranged on the thin workpiece side, so that a temperature field for forming a weld nugget is deflected to the thin workpiece side, the weld nugget is deflected to the thin workpiece side, more thin workpieces are melted, the diameter of the weld nugget at a joint surface is increased, and the strength of a welding spot joint is improved.
The technical principle of the invention is as follows:
for ease of understanding, the following mechanisms are provided for reference. It is to be understood, however, that the protection of the present invention is not limited by the mechanism.
In the present invention, a first welding electrode includes an electrode base body and a differential thickness welding regulating element, and the first welding electrode is in contact with a thin workpiece at the time of welding; because the differential thickness weld control element has a lower electrical or thermal conductivity relative to the electrode base, the heat contained by the differential thickness weld control element (either generated by resistance heating or by conduction from a thin workpiece weld pool, or both) is not readily transferred to the electrode base, i.e., the differential thickness weld control element limits and prevents heat flux into the electrode base. The differential thickness weld control element thus retains heat within a thin workpiece underlying and contacting the differential thickness weld control element, while during resistance spot welding, the same material, different thickness metal workpieces dissipate heat at a greater rate than the thick workpiece, thereby slowing directed heat flow from the thin workpiece weld pool into the first welding electrode and promoting lateral heat transfer at the thin workpiece.
In the following description, numerous technical details are set forth in order to provide a better understanding of the present application. However, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that the technical solutions claimed in the present application may be implemented without these technical details and with various changes and modifications based on the following embodiments.
