Through the cooperation of the modes, the air tightness is improved, the penetration rate of the sheet side is improved to 50% from 20% originally, the penetration rate is greatly improved, the welding between the plates is more stable, and the product quality is improved.

The backing plate with a corresponding shape can be selected according to the shape characteristics of the spot welding part, for example, a strip backing plate, a wafer backing plate and the like. The backing plate can be made of stainless steel or red copper material, and the material of the backing plate can be adaptively adjusted according to the material of the plate.
In this embodiment, the welding quality is monitored in real time during the resistance spot welding, and the step of adjusting the welding process parameters based on the monitored welding quality includes:

and acquiring nugget quality parameters of nuggets at welding spots after welding is completed, and adjusting post-processing parameters after welding based on comparison of the nugget quality parameters and nugget quality thresholds in a relational database.
A relational database is established based on the welding process and the welding quality, welding process parameters of formal welding are determined according to data in the relational database and experimental welding results, and then the welding process parameters of each stage are adjusted in real time based on real-time monitoring data before, during and after welding. Specifically, the pre-pressure value before welding is adjusted according to the comparison between the gap parameter monitored in real time before welding and the gap threshold value, so that the gap between the plates is ensured to meet the welding quality requirement; according to the comparison between the nugget expansion volume monitored in real time during welding and the nugget expansion threshold, each welding parameter during welding is adjusted to ensure that the welding quality requirement is met; and comparing the nugget quality parameter monitored in real time after welding with a nugget quality threshold value to judge whether to adjust the post-processing parameter so as to ensure that the welding quality requirement is met.
The gap value between the plates can be adjusted according to the magnitude of the pre-pressure value before welding. The gap value between the plates has a critical influence on the quality of the spot welding splashing and the inner nugget, and the gap is too large to cause the appearance quality problems of the spot welding splashing, deformation and the like and the nugget inner quality problems of the nugget diameter which does not reach or is lack to exceed the standard and the like, and the spot welding quality is improved by adjusting the gap value of the plate. When the pre-pressure value increases, the gap value between at least two plates can be reduced; when the pre-pressure value is reduced, the gap value between at least two plates may be increased.
During welding, welding parameters can influence the quality of the nucleation, particularly the expansion volume parameter of the nugget, and in the welding process, whether the welding parameters need to be adjusted is judged based on the expansion volume parameter of the nugget. Specifically, the adjusted welding parameters include welding current, welding pressure, electrode pressure, welding time, cooling time, hold time, and pulse number.
After welding, it is determined whether post-treatment is required or not and the specific manner of the post-treatment based on the shape after welding.
In this embodiment, the step of establishing a relational database of welding process and welding quality specifically includes:
The method comprises the steps of establishing a relation database of pre-pressure, clearance threshold and welding quality before welding, establishing a relation database of welding parameters, nugget expansion threshold and welding quality in welding, and establishing a relation database of post-processing parameters, nugget quality threshold and welding quality after welding.
It is understood that the relational databases include pre-weld relational databases of pre-stress-gap threshold-weld quality, mid-weld relational databases of weld parameters-nugget expansion threshold-weld quality, and post-process relational databases of post-nugget quality threshold-weld quality.
The pre-pressure value is correlated with the gap value, and when the pre-pressure value increases, the gap value between at least two plates decreases; when the pre-pressure value decreases, the gap value between at least two plates increases. For example, when the gap parameter monitored in real time is 50mm (millimeter), and the gap threshold is within 30mm, it is indicated that the gap between the plates is too large at this time, and the gap between the plates needs to be adjusted in time to ensure the subsequent welding quality. At this time, the gap between the plates is compressed by increasing the pre-pressure before welding so that there is a greater pressure between at least two plates to reduce the gap, and when the gap parameter monitored in real time is 30mm or less, the subsequent step is performed while maintaining the current pre-pressure value.
The method comprises the steps of obtaining a clearance parameter between at least two plates before welding, and adjusting a pre-welding pre-pressure value based on comparison of the clearance parameter and a clearance threshold value in a relational database, wherein the steps specifically comprise:
and transmitting laser to at least two plates at a first position, respectively reflecting the laser on the surfaces of the at least two plates to form at least two beams of reflected light, respectively receiving the at least two beams of reflected light by using a photosensitive element at a second position, correspondingly forming at least two photosensitive positions on the photosensitive element by the at least two beams of reflected light, and calculating a gap value between the at least two plates based on the interval between the at least two photosensitive positions. If the gap value is smaller than or equal to the gap threshold value in the relational database, the pre-pressure value before welding does not need to be adjusted. And if the clearance value is larger than the clearance threshold value in the relational database, the pre-pressure value before welding is improved.
For two plates, as shown in fig. 3 and 4, the first plate 310 may be placed on a working table, and then the laser emitting unit 330 emits laser, where the reflected light is reflected on the surface of the first plate 310 and then received at the first photosensitive position 350 of the photosensitive element 340, and at this time, the point of the first photosensitive position 350 is marked. Then, the second plate 320 is placed on the surface of the first plate 310, the second plate 320 is attached to the first plate 310 with a preset pre-pressure value, and then the laser is emitted by the laser emitting unit 330, and the reflected light is received at the second photosensitive position 360 of the photosensitive element 340 after the laser is reflected on the surface of the second plate 320, and at this time, the point of the second photosensitive position 360 is marked. The gap value between the first plate 310 and the second plate 320 is calculated based on the distance between the first photosensitive position 350 and the second photosensitive position 360 and through the light reflection angle and the like. If the clearance value is greater than the clearance threshold, the pre-pressure value is raised and the measurement is performed again until the clearance value meets the clearance threshold.
If the two plates are transparent weldments, laser light may pass through the plates. At this time, the first plate 310 is placed on the table, and then the second plate 320 is directly placed on the first plate 310, and the second plate 320 and the first plate 310 are bonded with each other at a predetermined pre-pressure value. The laser emitting unit 330 may emit laser, where the laser is reflected on the surface of the first plate 310 and then reflected at the first photosensitive position 350 of the photosensitive element 340, and the laser passes through the first plate 310 and is reflected at the position of the second plate 320, where the laser is reflected on the surface of the second plate 320 and then reflected at the second photosensitive position 360 of the photosensitive element 340, the point of the first photosensitive position 350 and the point of the second photosensitive position 360 are recorded, and the gap value between the first plate 310 and the second plate 320 is calculated based on the distance between the first photosensitive position 350 and the second photosensitive position 360 and the angle of reflection of the light. If the clearance value is greater than the clearance threshold, the pre-pressure value is raised and the measurement is performed again until the clearance value meets the clearance threshold.
Judging whether the pre-pressure value before welding needs to be adjusted based on the value of the clearance parameter, and reducing the clearance value between at least two plates when the pre-pressure value is increased; when the pre-pressure value is reduced, the gap value between at least two plates may be increased.
In one embodiment, when the real-time monitored gap parameter is 80mm and the gap threshold is within 40mm, the gap between the plates is too large, and the gap between the plates needs to be adjusted in time to ensure the subsequent welding quality. At this time, the gap between the plates is compressed by increasing the pre-pressure before welding so that there is a greater pressure between at least two plates to reduce the gap, and when the gap parameter monitored in real time is 40mm or less, the subsequent step is performed while maintaining the current pre-pressure value.

If the expansion volume parameter is within the range of the nugget expansion threshold in the relational database, no adjustment of the welding parameters is required. And if the expansion volume parameter is outside the range of the nugget expansion threshold in the relational database, adjusting at least one parameter of welding current, welding pressure, electrode pressure, welding time, cooling time, holding time and pulse number based on the relational database.
Specifically, an expansion displacement sensor is additionally arranged on the welding tongs to monitor the fused expansion volume value in real time, and the detected expansion volume value can directly reflect the fused expansion volume parameter. Based on real-time monitoring, the data monitored by the expansion displacement sensor can be fed back to the terminal in real time, the terminal can compare the expansion volume value fed back with the nugget expansion threshold value in the relational database in the terminal, and after the comparison and judgment, the result is fed back synchronously so as to make an instruction whether the welding parameters need to be adjusted or not.
It is understood that the welding parameters include at least one of welding current, welding pressure, electrode pressure, welding time, cooling time, hold time, and pulse number. During welding, it is determined whether or not adjustment of welding current, welding pressure, electrode pressure, welding time, cooling time, holding time, and number of pulses is required based on the expansion volume parameter detected in real time. For example, based on changes in the expansion volume parameter, the welding current may be increased, the welding pressure may be increased, the electrode pressure may be increased, the welding time may be prolonged, the cooling time may be prolonged, the holding time may be prolonged, and the number of pulses may be increased.
In one embodiment, the pre-pressure may be set to 3kN, the spot welding current may be set to 9KA, the welding time may be set to 180ms, the cooling time may be set to 30ms, the number of pulses may be set to 2, the hold time may be set to 600ms, and the electrode pressure may be set to 5.6kN.
