Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for establishing an electrical connection between at least one line and at least one connector of a workpiece.
  • the connection piece is arranged on a workpiece surface and one end of the at least one line is pre-assembled with a contact piece adapted to the connection piece.
  • the method comprises the steps: positioning the contact piece on the connection piece and welding the contact piece to the connection piece by means of laser radiation.
  • the invention also relates to a system consisting of a workpiece carrier and a welding carrier and a device for carrying out the method according to the invention.
  • Such a method is used to connect leads to switches, such as a miniature snap switch.
  • the process should be capable of being automated, monitored, inexpensive and reliable.
  • the connection of the conductors to the switch must be of high quality in order to ensure a safe electrical contact between the line and the switch.
  • Conventional methods for producing electrical connections between lines and connecting pieces of workpieces are based on soldering or resistance welding.
  • a method for producing an electrical connection between an electrical line and a connection piece of a workpiece by means of laser radiation is known from the prior art, in which the laser beam is directed onto the workpiece.
  • Laser welding is carried out without contact and without the help of additives.
  • the laser radiation is focused near the workpiece surface by means of optics.
  • the position of the focus relative to the workpiece surface (above or below) is an important welding parameter and also defines the welding depth.
  • the absorbed laser radiation heats the abutting surfaces of the parts to be welded (connecting piece and contact piece) and there is an extremely rapid rise in temperature beyond the melting temperature of metal, so that a melt forms.
  • a problem with laser welding is the limited possibility of protecting the surrounding workpiece surface, for example adjacent connecting pieces on the workpiece surface, or the workpiece as an electronic component itself, from damage by the direct laser beam or diffuse scattered radiation (for example excessive heating).
  • the invention has for its object to provide an improved method and system for establishing an electrical connection and an apparatus for performing the method.
  • the object is achieved with the features of independent claims 1, 14 and 15.
  • Advantageous embodiments are specified in the subclaims.
  • a straight line running along the laser radiation intersects a plane outside the workpiece that is predetermined by the workpiece surface. In other words, there is no intersection between the laser radiation and the workpiece surface.
  • This welding geometry can be achieved by inclining the workpiece surface in the direction of a horizontal and thus in a direction facing away from the laser source.
  • the use of a laser enables contact-free welding between the contact piece of the at least one line and the at least one connection piece of the workpiece, which does not require additives.
  • the heat load on the workpiece which is designed, for example, in the form of an electronic component, is kept low by a short irradiation of the contact piece and the connecting piece and without direct action of the laser radiation on the material surface.
  • the laser radiation generated by a laser source can be guided to the workpiece using mirror systems or optical fibers and then focused on the workpiece.
  • the workpiece In a welding cell, the workpiece is usually arranged on the floor or on a welding support, with the laser radiation shining onto the workpiece surface from above (basic system). With vertical radiation onto the workpiece surface, a surface normal of the workpiece surface is aligned parallel to the laser radiation during welding.
  • the laser radiation cuts a plane in the workpiece that is predetermined by the workpiece surface, namely on the workpiece surface at the position of the connecting piece. In this case, the workpiece absorbs a large part of the laser radiation and heats it. In this geometry, it is also difficult to protect the workpiece surface from diffuse laser scatter radiation.
  • the laser radiation cuts a plane outside the workpiece that is predetermined by the workpiece surface, a surface normal of the workpiece surface points in a direction facing away from the laser source, that is to say no direct laser radiation hits the workpiece surface.
  • the workpiece surface is thus facing away from the laser source Direction tilted. Due to this oblique alignment of the workpiece surface with respect to the laser radiation, the workpiece is optimally protected from damage by the laser beam during welding. This measure also minimizes the scattered radiation that arises. The minimization of scattered radiation is particularly desirable in order to protect surrounding workpieces during welding.
  • an intersection angle between the laser radiation and the plane predetermined by the workpiece surface is between 1 ° and 20 °, further preferably between 5 ° and 15 °, further preferably 10 °.
  • This arrangement represents a compromise between, on the one hand, the accessibility of the welding point between the contact piece and the connecting piece, while at the same time averting the workpiece surface as far as possible.
  • the workpiece can be a miniature (snap) switch.
  • Miniature switches or microswitches are small switching elements that can be found in numerous electrical devices and attachments. They are used to switch current between two river branches or to switch electrical consumers behind the switch on or off due to a mechanical load. Such switches represent an inexpensive solution for switching electrical components.
  • a welding point between the connector and the contact piece can be determined using an image processing system.
  • the image processing system enables a fully automatic control of the position of the contact piece and connection piece. Via an image processing system in the welding cell, the contact piece and the connecting piece can be searched for and compared with standard images. If the contact piece is correctly positioned on the connection piece, the Welding process will be started automatically. If the contact piece is not correctly positioned, the welding process is stopped. The check can be carried out separately for each welded joint.
  • the welding point at which the laser starts the welding process is also determined via the image processing system. This can depend on the exact contact geometry.
  • a welding movement can be controlled by the laser, the welding movement preferably being a straight movement or a circular movement.
  • the control of the laser movement can alternatively be replaced by a control of the workpiece movement.
  • the type of movement varies depending on the switch or contact geometry and can be automatically adjusted by the image processing system.
  • the contact piece is preferably designed as a contact sleeve and / or the connecting piece is designed as a contact pin.
  • the cross section of the sleeve opening can be adapted to the shape of the connector.
  • the contact sleeve is preferably large enough to be able to accommodate the connecting piece and so small that an undesired slipping off of the contact sleeve is avoided.
  • the contact piece can be positioned on the connection piece by plugging the contact sleeve onto the contact pin.
  • the workpiece is inserted into a workpiece carrier before welding, the connecting piece being opposite one in an inserted state
  • the surface of the workpiece carrier protrudes.
  • the workpiece surface can lie essentially in one plane with the surface of the workpiece carrier.
  • a workpiece carrier is a carrier on which one or more workpieces are fastened in order to transport them from a workpiece conveyor along a production line through several production stations.
  • the workpiece carrier can be designed in such a way that it absorbs a large part of the workpiece and thus protects it against scattered radiation, while the alignment between laser radiation and workpiece surface remains unaffected.
  • the workpiece carrier can have at least one guide groove for guiding the at least one line.
  • the line is thus fixed during the procedure and protected against laser radiation.
  • the fixed line also ensures that an undesired slipping of the contact piece from the connecting piece is reduced before welding.
  • the at least one guide groove preferably extends in a direction essentially transversely to the laser radiation.
  • the guide groove can be so deep that it completely takes up the line. In this arrangement, the line is optimally protected from the laser radiation.
  • the workpiece surface is aligned (relative to the laser beam) during welding by the arrangement of the equipped workpiece carrier on a welding carrier with an obliquely designed welding carrier surface.
  • the preconfigured workpiece carriers are oriented by the inclined surfaces of the welding carrier in the welding cell.
  • the welding support can be part of the transport system that is loaded with the workpiece carriers and moved into the welding cell by means of a transfer system.
  • the weld beam with angled training Welding carrier surface offers a particularly simple and reliable possibility of specifying the alignment of the workpieces in the welding cell.
  • the welding support can have further means which enable the workpiece holder to be fixed.
  • a welding carrier is preferably equipped with at least two workpiece carriers equipped, the arrangement of the workpiece carriers being mirrored to one another. This arrangement enables a high packing density of the work pieces.
  • the welding support can have a depression in the middle, which provides additional cooling in this area and / or deflects the reflected laser radiation in a predetermined direction.
  • the workpiece may have a second connector on the workpiece surface, one end of a second line being pre-assembled with a second contact piece adapted to the second connector, the second contact piece being positioned on the second connector, and the alignment between the laser radiation and the workpiece surface the two welds are the same.
  • the first and the second contact piece are preferably arranged offset from one another in a direction substantially transverse to the direction of the laser radiation. This makes it possible to maintain the focal plane of the laser between the welding processes.
  • the workpiece carrier preferably has a second guide groove for guiding the second line on the workpiece carrier, the second guide groove having an L shape. The lines can be routed parallel to each other and mainly across the direction of the laser radiation.
  • the invention also relates to a system comprising a workpiece carrier and a welding carrier for establishing an electrical connection between at least one line and at least one connector of a workpiece by means of laser radiation.
  • the workpiece carrier is designed to receive the workpiece and the welding carrier is designed to receive the workpiece carrier, a line running along the laser radiation intersecting a plane defined by the workpiece surface outside the workpiece in an inserted state. In an inserted state, the workpiece is inserted into the workpiece carrier and the workpiece carrier is arranged on the welding carrier.
  • the invention also relates to a device for carrying out the method according to the invention.
  • the device according to the invention comprises an assembly station for positioning the at least one line pre-assembled with an adapted contact piece on the at least one connecting piece of the workpiece and a laser welding station for welding the contact piece to the connecting piece by means of laser radiation.

  • FIG. 1 shows a workpiece 20 in the form of a switch with two contacts.
  • the workpiece 20 has two connecting pieces 25a, 25b, which are arranged on a workpiece surface 21.
  • the two connecting pieces 25a, 25b of the workpiece 20 are arranged in alignment on a line.
  • the number and arrangement of the connecting pieces 25a, 25b on the workpiece surface 21 is purely exemplary and depends, among other things, on intended switch type.
  • the connecting pieces 25a, 25b are designed as contact pins with a circular cross section. Methods for pressing contact pins into suitable receptacles (for example an embossed bead in the workpiece) of a workpiece 20 are known from the prior art.
  • the workpiece 20 shown are already positioned contact pieces 15a, 15b.
  • the lines 13a, 13b are assembled at one end with the contact pieces 15a, 15b. This is done, for example, by pressing / squeezing the contact piece 15a, 15b with the end of the line 13a, 13b which has been stripped beforehand.
  • Different geometries for the contact pieces 15a, 15b are known, each of which depends on the arrangement of the connecting piece 25a, 25b on the workpiece 20 and the line routing.
  • the contact pieces 15a, 15b are each designed as a contact sleeve, so that positioning on the connecting pieces 25a, 25b takes place in such a way that they are placed on the connecting pieces 25a, 25b and then crimped if necessary.

  • There are contact pieces 15a, 15b and connecting piece 25a, 25b preferably of the same material, preferably of copper or brass. Excess material of the connection piece 25a, 25b or contact piece 15a, 15b essentially serves as the welding material. Laser welding is preferred for the production of an electrical connection, since only very short laser pulses are required and the thermal stress on the workpiece 20 is therefore relatively low.
  • the laser radiation during laser welding cuts a plane outside the workpiece 20 that is predetermined by the workpiece surface 21. In other words, no direct laser radiation impinges directly on the workpiece 20 or the workpiece surface 21.
  • the workpiece 20 is aligned laterally to the laser radiation on the one hand so that the laser beam passes the workpiece 20 up to the welding point between the connecting piece 25a, 25b and contact piece 15a, 15b.
  • the workpiece surface 21 is tilted slightly with respect to the laser radiation, so that an intersection exists between a straight line running along the laser radiation and the area predetermined by the workpiece surface.
  • a preferred cutting angle is preferably about 10 °.
  • a surface normal of the workpiece surface 21 is then aligned in a direction facing away from the laser source.

  • the workpiece surface 21 In order for the laser radiation or an extension of the laser radiation to cut a plane outside the workpiece 20 that is predetermined by the workpiece surface 21, the workpiece surface 21 must be tilted with respect to the vertically irradiated laser radiation. As in Figure 4 shown, this takes place via the obliquely designed welding carrier surfaces 42 on which the workpiece carriers 30 rest.
  • the angle of the obliquely designed welding support surface 42 to the horizontal is preferably approximately 10 °. It follows from this that the workpiece surface 21 encloses an angle of approximately 80 ° to the horizontal in this position.
  • a recess 41 is arranged in the center of the welding support 40, which ensures cooling after the welding process.
