Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To joint aluminum members with a greatly different heat capacity, while shear drop or burn through is prevented, without causing degradation in material from an excessive heat input. SOLUTION: In welding an aluminum member 11 with a large heat capacity to one 12 with a small heat capacity, the two members 11, 12 are arc-welded by abutting a jig 14 with a large heat capacity on the aluminum member 12 with a small heat capacity. Assuming that the width of the jig 14 is Wj , that the width of a material to be welded is Wb , and that the width of an arc spread on the surface of the material is Wa , it is desirable to use the jig 14 having such a width as Wj >Wa -Wb for the purpose of preventing the arc from infiltrating. Thus, a welded product is obtained that is provided with an improvement in shape precision and surface condition.

2. Description of the Related Art As a method of welding and sealing a lid on an aluminum container body, welding with a high energy density beam such as an electron welding beam is introduced in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 63-264282. When this is used to manufacture a viscous damper used as a vibration prevention member for a vehicle, after the iron ring is housed in the casing, the lid is welded and sealed by high energy beam welding in the final welding process. . As shown in FIG. 1, the viscous damper is provided with an annular container portion 2 having a rectangular cross section on the periphery of a circular flat plate portion 1. The circular flat plate portion 1 and the annular container portion 2 are integrally formed of an aluminum material. If an aluminum viscous damper is used instead of iron, the third-order resonance in the overrun area is greatly reduced, vibration due to torsional resonance in normal rotation is reduced, and the temperature rise of silicone oil is suppressed and oil deterioration is prevented. Yes (see Preprints 943, pages 45-48, Academic Society of Japan Society of Automotive Engineers, Japan).

The circular flat plate portion 1 has an opening 3 formed at the center through which the shaft portion of the crankshaft is inserted. The ring-shaped container part 2 accommodates an iron ring 4 in its inner cavity, and silicone oil or the like is filled in the gap between the iron ring 4 and the ring-shaped container part 2. Further, a buffer material 5 such as a fluororesin is interposed so that the iron ring 4 does not directly collide with the inner wall of the annular container portion 2. According to the conventional method of manufacturing an aluminum viscous damper, the annular container 2 is sealed with the iron ring 4 housed therein prior to filling with silicone oil or the like. That is, as shown in FIG. 2A, after the iron ring 4 is put in the container body 6, the lid 7 is attached. The lid 7 is attached to the container body 6 by a caulking operation of bending the upper wall 8 of the container body 6 toward the lid 7. At this time, in order to ensure the sealing property of silicone oil or the like in the sealing portion, as shown in FIG.
The sealant 10 is sandwiched between the flange 9 and the upper wall 8 protruding from the lower part of the peripheral edge of the.

In the case of joining by caulking, the joining strength between the container body 6 and the lid 7 is weak, and when the container is mounted on the crankshaft where centrifugal force, vibration and impact due to high speed rotation are repeatedly applied, the container is not attached. A gap that causes oil leakage is likely to occur at the joint between the main body 6 and the lid 7. Moreover, in order to facilitate the crimping work, it is necessary to mold the thinned upper wall 8 and the brim portion 9 as shown in FIG. 2B, which causes an increase in the number of working steps and working time. Therefore, recently, welding or the like has been studied as an alternative method to caulking. For example, the above-mentioned Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 63-26482 introduces a method of sealing a container by welding with a high energy beam such as an electron beam or a laser beam. But,
Since these welding methods require special equipment, the initial cost and running cost are high.

When an ordinary MIG welding method, which is a typical welding method, is used to seal a container, the amount of heat input per unit length is large, so that the base material of the container is greatly deformed by heat. Also, since the temperature becomes high, parts such as fluororesin and rubber cannot be loaded inside. Large thermal deformation also causes deterioration of the desired vibration absorption characteristics when mounted on the crankshaft. Furthermore,
Since the bead width and excess are large and the sagging of the edge portion is likely to be large, the appearance of the product is deteriorated. Such a problem is not limited to the aluminum viscous damper shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, but as long as an aluminum outer material is welded to an aluminum inner material to form a container, an accumulator, a water pump, a torque converter. The same applies to cases, hermetic terminals, liquid and gas tanks, etc.

With an aluminum member having good thermal conductivity, welding becomes difficult even when welding members having greatly different heat capacities. That is, in a member having a large heat capacity, the amount of input heat diffuses into the member due to heat transfer, and it is difficult to raise the temperature of the welding point to the required welding temperature. On the other hand, in a member having a small heat capacity, the temperature rises rapidly due to heat input during welding, and the temperature rises easily until local deformation occurs. Therefore, welding defects such as burn-through and defective shape of the weld bead are likely to occur, and it becomes necessary to manage the welding conditions with high accuracy. Further, when joining the joint portion as shown in FIG. 2 by welding, the arc may wrap around the outer surface of the upper wall 8 at the time of welding to cause sagging at the edge or various defects on the surface. There is. The present invention has been devised to solve such a problem, and by arranging a jig having a function of covering the material to be welded in the vicinity of the welded portion and adjusting the heat capacity, sagging or burn-through can be prevented. It is an object of the present invention to prevent the deterioration of the material due to excessive heat input and to weld aluminum members having greatly different heat capacities. Another object is to perform good welding even in the case where the width of the welding surface of the material to be welded is small relative to the spread of the arc and the arc causes melting to an inconvenient portion.

[Operation] When welding aluminum members with greatly different heat capacities, the amount of heat conduction of the aluminum members is large and the melting point is relatively low, so the damage due to heat input during welding is greater than that of welding of iron-based members. Become. For example, as shown in FIG. 3, when the vertical aggregate 12 is arc-welded to the panel 11, in a T-shaped joint in which the height of the vertical aggregate 12 is lower than the spread width of the arc, sagging easily occurs due to the wraparound of the arc 13. , Can not maintain a sound rib shape. In addition, in the T-shaped joint in which the height of the vertical aggregate 12 is low, the panel 11 and the vertical aggregate 1 are
The heat balance with No. 2 is poor and the temperature of the vertical aggregate 12 is excessively increased as compared with that of the panel 11. As a result, the material of the vertical aggregate 12 is softened and the material strength is reduced. The present invention uses a jig 14 as shown in FIG. 4 in order to prevent such arc wraparound and excessive temperature rise. As the jig 14, it is preferable to use a material having a high heat conductivity and easy heat transfer to the material to be welded made of aluminum and having a large heat capacity. For example, a material having a larger cross-sectional area than the material to be welded and made of an aluminum material, a copper material, or the like, which is manufactured to have a close contact shape, is used.

The jig 14 shown in FIG. 4 (a) is provided with a holding portion 15 which comes into contact with the upper end surface of the vertical aggregate 12, and an inclined surface 17 which is inclined along the welding bead 16 from the holding portion 15 to the lower surface. ing. The pressing portion 15 has a width of the arc 13 that is W
a , where W b is the width of the vertical aggregate 12, W j > W a −W
The jig width W j that satisfies b is set. As a result, the arc 13 is prevented from wrapping around the surface of the vertical aggregate 12 other than the welded portion, and the surface after welding is maintained in a healthy state without welding marks and the like. Also, as shown in FIG. 4B, when the arc 13 is applied to the material to be welded 18 at a right angle, a jig 14 having a jig width W j satisfying W j > W a −W b is used. To be done. In this specification, the spread width W a of the arc indicates the spread width on the surface of the material to be welded as shown in FIG. 4. These dimensions are the same when the torch axis is displaced from the welding center as shown in FIG. 4C and when the torch axis is inclined and welding is performed.
Further, as shown in FIG. 4 (d), the same is true when three materials are simultaneously lap-welded. As described above, the outer edge of the arc covers the portion of the material to be welded which is not desired to be melted, with the jig having a large heat capacity. As described above, when the jig 14 having such a jig width W j is applied to the vertical aggregate 12 for arc welding, the amount of heat applied to the vertical aggregate 12 having a small heat capacity is transmitted to the jig 14. The excessive temperature rise of the vertical aggregate 12 is prevented. As a result, the sagging that tends to occur particularly at the corners of the vertical aggregate 12 is eliminated. Further, since excessive temperature rise is suppressed, distortion and deformation are suppressed, and the shape accuracy of the welded product is improved.

In a viscous damper or the like in which a disk-shaped lid is welded and sealed to a cylindrical casing, a jig 14 is applied to the outside of the casing 19 as shown in FIG. 5 (a). Then, the cover 21 is fitted to the step portion 20 formed on the upper edge of the casing 19, and the cover 21 is arc-welded to the casing 19. By applying the jig 14, the arc 13 does not go around the outer peripheral surface of the casing 19 and a healthy surface state is maintained. Further, the shape of the formed weld bead 22 is also stabilized. On the other hand, if the cover 21 is welded and sealed without using the jig 14, as shown in FIG.
The welding bead 22 is sagged due to the wraparound of the arc 13 as shown in (b). Further, the corner portion of the casing 19 is melted down, and the shape after welding is deteriorated. In the design in which the cover 21 is welded and sealed to the casing 19, usually, the step portion 20 is formed on the upper edge of the casing 19, and
As shown in (a), the joint portion 23 whose plate thickness is reduced to t

After forming 4, the cover 21 is welded to the casing 19. In this case, as shown in FIG. 6B, the casing 1
The use of a jig 14 having a height protruding from the upper end surface of 9 reliably prevents the arc from wrapping around.

The height t 1 at which the jig 14 projects from the upper end surface of the casing 19 is t based on the plate thickness t of the joint portion 23.
It is preferable to satisfy the relationship of 1 ≦ 100 / t. Even if the height t 1 exceeds 100 / t, arc wraparound can be prevented, but when t = 5 mm, for example, t 1 > 20 mm, and defects due to insufficient shield due to higher welding torch are likely to occur. . As the jig 14, it is also possible to use a jig having a water cooling mechanism or an air cooling mechanism for circulating cooling water as shown in FIG. 6C.
The jig 14 having a built-in cooling mechanism is the thinned joint portion 2
3 promotes heat dissipation and prevents the joint portion 23 from excessively rising in temperature.

The jig 14 has a casing 19 as shown in FIG. 6D in order to reduce the melting width of the upper surface of the joint.
You may form the protrusion part 25 which presses down a part of upper end surface.
A length t 2 that the protrusion 25 covers the upper end surface of the casing 19.
Is required to be smaller than the plate thickness t of the joint portion 23 in order to secure the welding point. Further, in this case, FIG.
As shown in (e), it is possible to provide a gap 26 between the upper end surface of the casing 19 and the protruding portion 25. In this case, it is effective to set the distance t 3 of the gap 26 to be equal to or less than the length t 2 that the protrusion 25 covers the upper end surface of the casing 19. If the distance t 3 is longer than the length t 2, the effect of reducing the melting width of the upper end surface of the casing 19 by the welding arc is reduced and the projection 25 may be melted. When it is desired to provide a corner radius R at a corner, it is preferable to use a jig 14 which is lower than the upper end surface of the casing 19 by a height difference t 4 as shown in FIG. 6 (f). This intends to form the corner radius R by intentionally utilizing the wraparound of the arc. For example, when the height difference t 4 is set to 2 mm, it is approximately 2 mm due to the surface tension and the interfacial tension of the molten metal on the outer periphery of the upper end of the casing 19 due to the arc wrapping around.
Corner radius R can be formed.

The present invention can also be applied to the case where a flange 28 is welded to a cylindrical pipe material 27 as shown in FIG. 7 (a). The flange 28 is smaller than the pipe material 27. Therefore, when welding is performed by a normal welding method, the flange 28 having a small heat capacity is excessively heated, and the flange 28 is likely to have a sag 29 as shown in FIG. 7B. Further, in an extreme case, the weld bead 22 rises up to the side surface of the flange 28, and the required shape accuracy cannot be secured. Therefore, FIG.
As shown in (c), the pipe member 27 is accommodated and the flange 28
The jig 14 having an inner peripheral surface that contacts the side surface of the jig is used. When welding is performed with the side surface of the flange 28 covered by the jig 14, the heat concentrated on the flange 28 during welding is applied to the jig 1
4 to prevent the flange 28 from excessively rising in temperature and prevent distortion and deformation due to welding heat input. Moreover, since the side surface of the flange 28 is covered with the jig 14, the arc is prevented from wrapping around, and the flange 2 is not welded after welding.
8 is maintained in a healthy surface condition.

The weld sealing portions 46 and 47 have groove angles 45.
A groove with ˜70 degrees and a groove depth of 1.5-2 mm was attached.
While supplying argon as a shielding gas at a flow rate of 25 liters / minute, a filler material 5356WY having a diameter of 1.2 mm was used, a current of 170 to 230 A, a voltage of 19.5 to 25 V,
Welding was performed under the conditions of a torch advancing angle of 10 ° and an aiming angle of 0 °. The container body 6 in which the lid 7 is welded and sealed is attached to the jigs 43 to 45.
Then, as shown in FIG. 13, the deformation amount was measured at six measurement points P at equal intervals along the circumferential direction. When the measurement results of the amount of deformation are arranged according to the presence or absence of a jig and the welding speed, as shown in FIG. 14, as compared with the case where welding is performed without using the jigs 43 to 45, the container is determined by the jigs 43 to 45. In the case where the main body 6 and the lid 7 were restrained and welded, the amount of deformation was significantly reduced. Even when the container body 6 and the lid 7 were restrained by the jigs 43 to 45, the amount of deformation decreased as the welding speed increased.

From this, it is understood that heat is absorbed by the jigs 43 to 45 during welding, and heat balance is achieved even when the container body 6 and the lid 7 having different heat capacities are welded. As a result, thermal deformation of the container body 6 and the lid 7 was suppressed, and the container body 6 was prevented from sagging. Further, even when the welding speed was 2 m / min or less, as shown in FIG. 15 by comparing the case without a jig (a) and the case with a jig (b), sagging did not easily occur and the non-melting width was large. Therefore, the conditions were relaxed and the welding became easier even with the aim that was a problem in high-speed MIG welding at a welding speed of 5 m / min or more. Further, the container body 6 and the lid 7
Even if there is a gap of 0.3 mm at the welding point, the amount of deformation is small, so the processing cost of the material to be welded could be reduced.

[Operation] When welding aluminum members with greatly different heat capacities, the amount of heat conduction of the aluminum members is large and the melting point is relatively low, so the damage due to heat input during welding is greater than that of welding of iron-based members. Become. For example, as shown in FIG. 3, when the vertical aggregate 12 is arc-welded to the panel 11, in a T-shaped joint in which the height of the vertical aggregate 12 is lower than the spread width of the arc, sagging easily occurs due to the wraparound of the arc 13. , Can not maintain a sound rib shape. In addition, in the T-shaped joint in which the height of the vertical aggregate 12 is low, the panel 11 and the vertical aggregate 1 are
The heat balance with No. 2 is poor and the temperature of the vertical aggregate 12 is excessively increased as compared with that of the panel 11. As a result, the material of the vertical aggregate 12 is softened and the material strength is lowered. The present invention uses a jig 14 as shown in FIG. 4 in order to prevent such arc wraparound and excessive temperature rise. As the jig 14, it is preferable to use a material having a high heat conductivity and easy heat transfer to the material to be welded made of aluminum and having a large heat capacity. For example, an aluminum material that has a larger cross-sectional area than the material to be welded and is formed into a close contact,
A material made of a material such as copper is used.
