Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of electric heating, and more particularly, to a method of manufacturing an electric heating apparatus for an electric vehicle.
Background
Electric heating devices are widely used in motor vehicles, and generally heat a fluid medium through a heating unit, and then the fluid medium transfers heat to a heat dissipation system, so as to regulate the ambient temperature inside the vehicle. For example, for an electric automobile, the working efficiency of a battery circuit is reduced due to the influence of low temperature in winter, and the working temperature of the battery can be ensured by radiating heat around the battery through a fluid medium heated by the electric heating equipment.
In the electric heating apparatus, it is necessary to design a flow channel cavity for allowing a fluid medium to flow, and to arrange a heating unit, an electric control component, and the like, so that a high requirement is imposed on the sealing performance of the flow channel cavity of the electric heating apparatus. The conventional sealing method is usually to seal the peripheral part of the flow passage cavity, such as by using a sealing ring to cooperate with a fastener, or by using a sealant, but the conventional sealing method is complicated in structure and relatively high in sealing cost. On the other hand, the reliability of the conventional sealing method is limited, and particularly, after a period of use, the probability of the defect of the leakage of the seal is increased.
Therefore, how to provide a sealing solution for a flow channel cavity of an electric heating device with higher reliability becomes a technical problem to be solved in the field.
Disclosure of Invention
The inventor of the present application has found, through long-term research and development, that the sealing reliability of the flow passage chamber of the electric heating apparatus is limited because the peripheral seal of the flow passage chamber is assembled in a non-operating state, and in an operating state, the pressure of the fluid medium is alternately switched between a low-pressure state and a high-pressure state, and particularly, in a high-temperature state, the sealing cover structure in the middle of the flow passage chamber is bulged outwards, so that adverse stress is applied to the peripheral sealing structure, and the reliability of the peripheral sealing structure is reduced.
In view of the above, the present application provides a method for manufacturing an electric heating device of an electric vehicle, so as to provide a sealing scheme for a flow passage cavity of the electric heating device with higher reliability.

Preferably, the sealing step is performed by friction stir welding, in which a first stirring head in a rotating state is inserted between the peripheral edge of the cover plate and the electric heating body and moves along the peripheral edge for one turn, so that the materials of the contact part of the peripheral edge of the cover plate and the electric heating body are softened and mixed, and the first connection part and the tail hole are formed after the first stirring head is withdrawn.
Preferably, the manufacturing method includes a tail hole processing step in which a filler is filled into the tail hole, and the second stirring head in a rotating state is pressed against the filler to soften and fill the filler in the tail hole to form a seal.
Preferably, the rotation speed of the first stirring head and the second stirring head during operation is 1000-1500 rpm.
Preferably, the first pin includes a first shoulder and a first pin, the first pin is inserted into the support portion through the cover plate, and the first shoulder is pressed against an upper surface of the cover plate in the fixing step.
Preferably, the second stirring head comprises a second shoulder; or the second stirring head comprises a second shoulder and a second stirring pin, and the diameter and the length of the second stirring pin are smaller than those of the first stirring pin.
Preferably, the tail hole processing step includes a staying stage in which the second shoulder of the second stirring head in a rotating state is pressed down to a level flush with the top of the tail hole and a spin-down stage; and in the downward rotation stage, continuously pressing the second shaft shoulder downwards by 0.1-0.5mm at the height which is flush with the top of the tail hole.

Next, according to the electric heating apparatus as described in the foregoing, the present application provides a method for manufacturing the electric heating apparatus of the electric vehicle.
The present application provides a manufacturing method of an electric heating apparatus of an electric vehicle, which applies an electric heating apparatus at least comprising an electric heating body 100 and a cover plate 120 as described in the previous embodiments, wherein one side of the electric heating body 100 is provided with a flow channel cavity 110, the cover plate 120 is provided at one side of the electric heating body 100 and covers the flow channel cavity 110, and a support portion 114 is provided in the flow channel cavity 110. The method for manufacturing an electrolytic thermal device of the present application includes: sealing: fixedly connecting the periphery of the cover plate 120 with the electric heating body 100 in a sealing manner to form a first connecting part; a fixing step: the cover plate 120 is fixedly coupled to the support portion 114 at the middle portion thereof. Wherein, the sealing step is to seal the flow channel cavity 110 between the cover plate 120 and the electric heating body 100, and the fixing step is to add a fixed connection structure with the support part 114 on the electric heating body 100 in the middle of the cover plate 120, so as to fix the cover plate 120 and the electric heating body 100 and enhance the connection relationship. The sealing step and the fixing step may be performed either before or after each other, or both.
The fixing of the cover plate 120 and the supporting portion 114 in the fixing step may be achieved by bonding, welding, sealed screwing, and the like as described above. However, since it is difficult to perform the connecting operation of the cover plate 120 and the supporting portion 114 after the cover plate 120 is engaged with the electric heating body 100, the fixing step preferably performs the friction stir welding of the cover plate 120 and the supporting portion 114 by means of friction stir welding through the cover plate 120. As shown in fig. 13, the first stirring head 31 in a rotating state is inserted into the supporting portion 114 through the cover plate 120, the materials of the contacting portion of the cover plate 120 and the supporting portion 114 are softened and mixed by the rotating friction of the first stirring head 31, and after the first stirring head 31 is withdrawn, the softened and mixed materials are cooled to form the second connecting portion 122 and the tail hole 1221 shown in fig. 11 and 14.

The above preferred fixing step and sealing step may be alternative or combined, that is, preferably, both the fixing step and the sealing step are performed by friction stir welding. After the friction stir welding operation is completed and the first stirring head 31 is withdrawn, in order to avoid the remaining end hole 1221 from affecting the sealing performance of the electric heating apparatus, preferably, the manufacturing method includes an end hole processing step, in the end hole processing step, first, as shown in fig. 14, a filler 33 is filled into the end hole 1221, the filler 33 may be a material having a melting point close to or the same as that of the cover plate 120 and the electric heating body 100, or the filler 33 is preferably the same as that of the cover plate 120 and the electric heating body 100; then, as shown in fig. 15, the second stirring head 32 in a rotating state is pressed against the filler 33, and the filler 33 is softened by the rotation stirring friction of the second stirring head 32 and filled in the end hole 1221 to form a seal. The second stirring head 32 has a smaller friction stir range than the first stirring head 31.
