The embodiment of the invention provides an interface regulating device for forming a heterogeneous material by coaxial dual-wavelength laser, which comprises an infrared laser light path unit and a green laser light path unit. The infrared laser light path unit is used for emitting the infrared laser light 104 and adjusting the propagation direction of the infrared laser light 104, and the green laser light path unit is used for emitting the green laser light 204 and adjusting the propagation direction of the green laser light 204, it is understood that the wavelength of the infrared laser light 104 is different from that of the green laser light 204. After the propagation direction of the infrared laser 104 and the green laser 204 is adjusted, the infrared laser can be coaxially propagated to form coaxially coupled dual-wavelength coupled laser, and when the coupled laser scans the material interface 608, the laser absorption behavior of the interface material can be improved, the interface defects and stress concentration can be reduced, and the bonding strength of the material interface 608 and the performance and functional reliability of the whole member can be improved.
As shown in fig. 1, the infrared laser light path unit includes an infrared laser 101, an infrared laser shaper 102, and an infrared laser total reflection mirror 103, where the infrared laser 101 is capable of emitting an infrared laser 104, and during the propagation of the infrared laser 104, the infrared laser shaper 102 passes through the infrared laser shaper 102, and the infrared laser shaper 102 is used for adjusting the energy distribution of the infrared laser 104 in the coupled laser. Wherein, infrared laser 101, infrared laser shaper 102 are coaxial to set up, so that infrared laser 104 gets into infrared laser shaper 102.
Further, the infrared laser total reflection mirror 103 is disposed on the propagation path of the infrared laser 104, the infrared laser 104 propagates to the infrared laser total reflection mirror 103 after being adjusted by the infrared laser shaper 102, and the propagation path of the infrared laser 104 is changed under the reflection effect of the infrared laser total reflection mirror 103. It will be appreciated that infrared laser total reflection mirror 103 is tilted such that a corner appears in the propagation path of infrared laser light 104, facilitating the coaxial coupling of infrared laser light 104 with green laser light 204.
Similar to the infrared laser light path unit, the green laser light path unit includes a green laser 201, a green laser shaper 202, and a laser beam combiner 203, where the green laser 201 is capable of emitting a green laser 204, and the green laser shaper 202 is configured to adjust an energy distribution of the green laser 204 in the coupled laser light during propagation of the green laser 204. The green laser 201 and the green laser shaper 202 are coaxially arranged, so that the green laser 204 enters the green laser shaper 202.
Further, the laser beam combiner 203 is disposed on the propagation path of the green laser beam 204, and is also disposed on the propagation path of the infrared laser beam 104 after reflection. The green laser 204 propagates to the laser beam combining mirror 203 after being adjusted by the green laser shaper 202, and the propagation path of the green laser 204 is changed by the reflection of the laser beam combining mirror 203. It will be appreciated that the laser beam combiner 203 is also disposed obliquely, so that a corner appears on the propagation path of the green laser beam 204, so as to facilitate coaxial coupling of the infrared laser beam 104 and the green laser beam 204.
Specifically, the infrared laser light 104 can pass through the laser beam combiner 203 and combine with the reflected green laser light 204, thereby performing coaxial coupling.

At this time, in order to make infrared laser light 104 and green laser light 204 coaxially propagate after reflection, the inclination angles of infrared laser total reflection mirror 103 and laser beam combining mirror 203 are approximately the same.
In some examples, the inclination angles of the infrared laser total reflection mirror 103 and the laser beam combining mirror 203 are set to be 45 degrees, so that the coupled laser after beam combination vertically propagates, and scanning of the material interface 608 is facilitated. Specifically, on the premise of coaxial propagation, the spot 607 size of the infrared laser 104 is larger than the spot 607 size of the green laser 204, the infrared laser 101 generates laser light with a wavelength of 1064nm, and the green laser 201 generates laser light with a wavelength of 532 nm.

In some examples, the interface modulation device for forming heterogeneous materials by coaxial dual-wavelength laser further comprises a controller 301, wherein the controller 301 is connected with the infrared laser 101 and the green laser 201. Under the control of the controller 301, the laser power output ratio of the infrared laser 101 and the green laser 201 can be adjusted to a state suitable for the material interface 608. The laser power output proportion and the laser energy distribution of the coupled laser are two components of the energy coupling proportion, namely the energy coupling proportion of the coupled laser can be adjusted in a targeted manner, the process dimension of the three-dimensional heterogeneous material interface regulation and control is enriched, and the problem of reliability of the three-dimensional heterogeneous material interface is solved.
In some examples, to ensure that the propagation direction of infrared laser 104 is stable, an infrared laser collimator 105 is disposed between infrared laser shaper 102 and infrared laser total reflection mirror 103, and it is understood that infrared laser collimator 105, infrared laser shaper 102, and infrared laser 101 remain approximately coaxial. In order to ensure that the propagation direction of the green laser 204 is stable, a green laser collimator 205 is disposed between the green laser shaper 202 and the laser beam combiner 203, and it is understood that the green laser collimator 205, the green laser shaper 202 and the green laser 201 are approximately coaxial. Ensuring efficient conditioning of infrared laser light 104 and green laser light 204.
In some examples, a laser scanning galvanometer 401 and an f-theta mirror 402 are arranged on the optical path of the coupled laser, and the laser scanning galvanometer 401 and the f-theta mirror 402 are connected with the controller 301. Under the comprehensive adjustment of the controller 301 and the laser scanning galvanometer 401, the coupled laser is focused on the forming surface through the f-theta mirror 402, so that the interface of the three-dimensional heterogeneous material is regulated and controlled.
In some examples, the interface modulation device for forming heterogeneous materials by coaxial dual-wavelength laser further comprises a laser selective melting unit, wherein the laser selective melting unit is used for bearing a part to be processed and can store a part of powder materials.
Further, the laser selective melting unit comprises a forming area 403 and a storage area, wherein the forming area 403 is used for placing a part to be processed, and the first powder material 601 of the three-dimensional heterogeneous material is stored in the storage area. The forming region 403 is arranged in parallel with the storage region, facilitating the introduction of the first powder material 601 into the forming region 403 when the first powder material 601 is laid down. It will be appreciated that the coupled laser scans the material interface 608 at the shaped region 403.

Further, a heterogeneous powder material preset unit is located above the laser selective melting unit, the heterogeneous powder material preset unit includes a moving guide 501, a powder hopper 502, and the powder hopper 502 is slidably connected with the moving guide 501, specifically, is capable of moving above the forming region 403 under the control of the controller 301. The powder hopper 502 is capable of sucking or discharging heterogeneous powder material to complete the laying of the second powder material 602.
As shown in fig. 2, in some examples, a second powder material 602 is stored inside the powder hopper 502, and a powder feeding nozzle 503, a powder suction nozzle 504, and an ultrasonic vibration member 505 are provided on the powder hopper 502. The powder hopper 502 moves to the forming area 403 to suck out excessive powder material to form a blank area, and then the second powder material 602 is laid in the blank area through the powder feeding nozzle 503 to finish the laying of the two powder materials.

In the data preparation process, because the processing requirements of various parts to be processed are different, in order to ensure the accurate laying position of the powder material, single material model data and interface area model data, namely laser scanning model data, need to be determined in advance. On the basis of the laser scanning model data, powder preset path data can be obtained by slicing. It will be appreciated that the shape of each individual material model of the part to be machined will typically be different and that the physical and machining properties of the various materials will also be different and need to be determined separately.

As shown in fig. 5, in the non-material interface region of the part to be processed, since only one powder material exists, the processing can be performed by using a single wavelength laser without considering factors such as the bonding strength of the two materials. First, selecting a proper single-wavelength laser according to single-material model data, and scanning a corresponding single-material area by using the single-wavelength laser. And correspondingly selecting a specific single-wavelength laser for scanning in other material areas, thereby completing the processing process.
Specifically, the part to be processed is processed in layers, and each layer is processed by scanning the material interface 608 with a coupled laser, and then scanning a single material area with multiple single-wavelength lasers. Repeating the layering processing process to finish the whole processing of the part.
As shown in fig. 4, in some examples, when the coupled laser is used to scan the material interface area, under the control of the controller 301, the laser power output ratio of the infrared laser 104 to the green laser 204 is changed, where fig. 4 includes two cases, that is, the case that the output power of the infrared laser 104 is greater than the output power of the green laser 204 and the case that the output power of the green laser 204 is greater than the output power of the infrared laser 104, and under the action of the infrared laser shaper 102 and the green laser shaper 202, the laser energy distribution of the infrared laser 104 and the green laser 204 is changed, that is, the energy coupling ratio is changed, so that the energy coupling ratio is adapted to the specific material interface 608, the instability and stress concentration in the material melting process at the interface are reduced, the deformation cracking tendency is reduced, and the interface bonding quality is improved. Wherein when the melting point of the first powder material 601 is greater than the melting point of the second powder material 602, the infrared laser 104 is above the first powder material melting point threshold 603 and the green laser 204 is above the second powder material melting point threshold 604.
As shown in fig. 6, in some examples, the beam diameter and energy distribution of the coupled laser is adjusted by shaping the infrared laser shaper 102 and the green laser shaper 202 as the coupled laser is applied to scan the area of the material interface 608, where different laser absorption characteristics and heat conduction characteristics of the material on both sides of the material interface 608 need to be referenced. The high energy region 605 is biased toward materials with high laser reflectivity or thermal conductivity, while the low energy region 606 is biased toward materials with low laser reflectivity or thermal conductivity, thereby regulating the melting behavior and tissue evolution of the interface material, promoting the materials with different physical properties to fully melt and achieve metallurgical bonding, and inhibiting the formation of interface pores, crack defects.
