Definitions
- the present invention relates to a friction spot joint structure in which a plurality of plate members are overlapped and joined by plastic-flowing the plate members.
- friction spot joint structure in which plate members are point joined by fusing a part thereof by friction, for example, as disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid Open Publication No. 2002-292479A.
- a friction spot joint apparatus including: a rotary tool having a pin portion at its tip end and a shoulder portion of a diameter larger than that of the pin portion at the base end of the pin portion; and a receiving member arranged so as to face the rotary tool in the axial direction of the rotation axis, first and second plate members overlapped with each other are interposed between the rotary tool and the receiving member, the pin portion is pressed into the first plate member and the second plate member, while rotating the rotary tool, and the shoulder portion is pressed against the first plate member in the axial direction by, whereby the plate members are point joined.
- the present invention has been made in view of the above problems and has its object of obtaining a joint structure of constant joint quality at high joint strength by devising a joint structure of two plate members.
- the plate members are joined by mechanical joint in the present invention.
- the first invention is directed to a friction spot joint structure in which a fist plate member and a second plate member are point joined with each other by plastic flow in a manner that using a rotary tool having: a pin portion at a tip end thereof and a shoulder portion having a larger diameter than that of the pin portion at a base end of the pin portion; and a receiving member arranged so as to face the rotary tool in an axial direction of a rotary axis, the first plate member and the second plate member overlapped with each other is interposed between the rotary tool and the receiving member, the pin portion is pressed into the first plate member while rotating the rotary tool, and the shoulder portion is pressed against the first plate member in the axial direction.
- the friction spot joint structure includes: a concave portion formed by the pin portion and including a continuous interface between the first plate member and the second plate member; and an annular bulging portion of the second plate member which protrudes by plastic flow into the first plate around an entire outer periphery of the concave portion.
- the continuous interface between the first plate member and the second plate member exists. Therefore, the pressed second plate member plastic-flows into the first plate member in a solid phase state when the first and the second plate members interposed between the rotary tool and the receiving member are softened by friction heat caused at the rotating shoulder and pin portions.
- the first plate member and the second plate member are joined to each other mechanically, forming the annular bulging portion around the concave portion.
- the joint strength depends on the size of a mechanically joined part of the bulging portion, which can be easily adjusted by changing joining conditions such as the pressure and number of rotation of the rotary tool, the joining period and the like. Hence, a target joint strength can be obtained constantly.
- the continuous interface remains between the first plate member and the second plate member at the bottom of the concave portion, and therefore, stress concentration is hard to be invited compared with the case with a discontinuous interface. Accordingly, cracking is prevented and the shear fracture strength is increased. Furthermore, the second plate member is not exposed to the wall face forming the concave portion. Therefore, in the case using a material having an anti-corrosion characteristic as the first plate member, even if the second plate member is inferior in anti-corrosion characteristic, the anti-corrosion characteristic at the joint part is ensured and easy quality management for surface treatment, coating and the like can be attained because the same material exists continuously in the surface portion.
- a protruding portion is formed so as to protrude outward from the annular bulging portion.
- the first plate member and the second plate member are made of a light metal.
- light metals having small specific gravities, such as aluminum, magnesium plastic flow in a solid phase state is easily caused at comparatively low temperatures.
- the effects of the present invention are remarkably exhibited.
- FIG. 1 is a side view showing a joint gun.
- FIG. 2 is a section showing, in an enlarged scale, a friction spot joint structure according to an embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG. 3 is a graph illustrating dependencies of a diameter of a fractured part and tensile shear strength on a joining period in the friction spot joint structure according to Embodiment 1.
- FIG. 4 is a section showing a joint part obtained at joining period of 0.4 sec.
- FIG. 5 is a view corresponding to FIG. 4 and showing a joint part obtained at joining period of 0.7 sec.
- FIG. 6 is a section showing, in an enlarged scale, a bulging portion in FIG. 5 .
- FIG. 7 is a section showing a joint part in a friction spot joint structure according to Embodiment 2.
- FIG. 8 is a section showing, in an enlarged scale, an encircled part C in FIG. 7 .
- FIG. 1 shows a joint gun 1 installed in a friction point joining apparatus (the whole construction is not shown) according to the embodiments of the present invention.
- the joint gun 1 which is fitted to, for example, a wrist of a robot, is provided for point-joining a plurality of plate members made of a light metal such as an aluminum alloy, a magnesium alloy, a zinc alloy used for bodies and the like of automobiles in a state that they are overlapped with each other in the thickness direction thereof, to form a friction joint structure.
- a light metal such as an aluminum alloy, a magnesium alloy, a zinc alloy used for bodies and the like of automobiles
- the joint gun 1 includes a joint tool 6 composed of a rotary tool 4 and a receiving member 5 , and the rotary tool 4 and the receiving member 5 interpose a part to be joined of a work W, which is composed of a first plate member W 1 and a second plate member W 2 overlapped with each other in the thickness direction thereof.
- the rotary tool 4 includes a pin portion 42 in a column shape at a tip end portion 41 thereof, and a shoulder portion 43 of which diameter is larger than the diameter of the pin portion 42 is formed at the tip end portion 41 on the base end side of the pin portion 42 .
- the rotary tool 4 is arranged along a rotation axis X (axial line) intersecting at a right angle with an overlap plane S 1 between the first and second plate members W 1 , W 2 of the work W, and is rotated around the rotation axis X by a rotary shaft motor 11 . Further, the rotary tool 4 moves up and down along the rotation axis X by a pressing shaft motor 12 .
- the first and second plate members W 1 , W 2 may be made of the same material or different materials and its combination is not limited only if each of them is made of a light metal.
- the receiving member 5 is formed of a main body 51 in column shape having a top face 52 of which shape and area are substantially the same as or larger than those of the tip end portion 41 of the rotary tool 4 . Further, the receiving member 5 is mounted in the rotary axis X to the tip end of a substantially L-shaped arm 13 so as to face the rotary tool 4 , with the work W interposed.
- the rotary tool 4 is rotated around the rotation axis X by the rotary shaft motor 11 of the joint gun 1 .
- the rotary tool 4 is brought down by the pressing shaft motor 12 so as to be in contact with the surface of the work W (first plate member W 1 ), while rotating the rotary tool 4 .
- the work W is interposed between the rotary tool 4 and the receiving member 5 and is pressed in the direction of the rotation axis X (downward in FIG. 2 ). In this manner, the pin portion 42 of the rotary tool 4 is pressed into the work W.
- the receiving member 5 supports the work W at a top face 52 thereof By this supporting, the pressure of the rotary tool 4 to the work W is received at the top face 52 of the receiving member 5 , thereby preventing the work W from deformation toward the receiving member 5 .
- the rotary tool 4 is further pressed toward the work W, while rotating the rotary tool 4 .
- the pin portion 42 of the rotary tool 4 is squeezed into the first plate member W 1 , to generate heat.
- the shoulder portion 43 of the rotary tool 4 and the surface of the first plate member W 1 are rubbed against each other to generate friction heat. The thus generated friction heat is transferred from the first plate member W 1 to the second plate member W 2 , thereby softening the second plate member W 2 .
- the rotation and the pressing of the rotary tool 4 are continued to generate plastic flow in the rotation direction in the first and second plate members W 1 , W 2 .
- the further continuation of the rotation and the pressing of the rotary tool 4 increases the range of the plastic flow in the work W.
- annular bulging portion 63 is formed in the first plate member W 1 so as to surround the concave portion 61 with the rotation axis X as a center. Accompanied by the rotation of the shoulder portion 43 , further plastic flow is caused outward in the radial direction around the annular bulging portion 63 , so that a protruding portion 64 protruding outward in the radial direction is formed around the annular bulging portion 63 .
- the protruding portion 64 of the second plate member W 2 encroaches in and is joined to the first plate member W 2 .
- the rotary tool 4 is raised by the pressing shaft motor 12 , while rotating the rotary tool 4 , so that the rotary tool 4 is pulled out from the work W.
- the concave portion 61 is formed by the pin portion 42 , with the continuous interface S 2 between the first plate member W 1 and the second plate member W 2 remained by pressing the first plate member W 1 toward the second plate member W 2 between the rotary tool 4 and the receiving member 5 , and the annular bulging portion 63 of the second plate member W 2 is formed which protrudes into the first plate member W 1 by plastic flow of the first and second plate members W 1 , W 2 .
- the joint strength depends on the size of a mechanically joined part of the bulging portion 63 , which can be easily adjusted by changing joining conditions such as the pressure and number of rotation of the rotary tool 4 , ajoining period and the like. Accordingly, a target joint strength can be obtained constantly. Further, with the interface S 2 , the shear fracture strength is increased and easy quality management for surface treatment, coating and the like are attained.
- the protruding portion 64 formed around the bulging portion 63 exhibits an effect as an anchor, thereby increasing the strength against a load in a direction of force to separate the joint part.
- first and second plate members W 1 , W 2 are made of a light metal, which easily causes plastic flow in a solid phase state, thereby remarkably exhibiting the effects of the present embodiment.
- the receiving member 5 is fixed in the above embodiment but may be movable in the rotation axis X. Further, the receiving member 5 is formed of the column shaped main body 51 having the top face 52 of which shape and area are substantially the same as or larger than those of the tip end portion 41 of the rotary tool 4 in the present invention, but the receiving member 5 may be in a plate shape.
- a 6000 series aluminum alloy of 1 mm in thickness was used as the first plate member W 1 and a 3000 series aluminum alloy of 1 mm in thickness was used as the second plate member W 2 .
- the work W was joined using the aforementioned friction point joining apparatus.
- the rotary tool 4 having the shoulder portion 43 of 8 mm in diameter was used, the pressure and number of rotation thereof were set to 3.42 kN and 2500 rpm, respectively, and a plurality of joint parts were formed in a single work W with the joining period changed per 0.1 sec. Then, the work W was cut into joint parts per joining period to observe each section thereof Further, the tensile shear strength of each joint part per joining period was measured.
- FIG. 3 shows studied results of dependencies of diameters R of fractured parts and tensile shear strength on the joining period.
- FIG. 4 is a section showing the joint part obtained at the joining period of 0.4 sec.
- FIG. 5 is a section showing the joint part obtained at the joining period of 0.7 sec.
- Each diameter R of the fractured parts correspond substantially to the maximum diameter of the bulging portion 63 and to an effective diameter of a mechanically joined part in the overlap plane S 1 between the first plate member W 1 and the second plate member W 2 .
- the first plate member W 1 and the second plate member W 2 were mechanically joined to each other in a range of the diameter R of the fractured part with no space.
- a minute space between the first plate member W 1 and the second plate member W 2 was observed at the outside of the range of the diameter R.
- the bulging portion 63 grows and the diameter R of the fractured part is increased.
- the diameter R of the fractured part is increased as the joining period is longer to some extent, accompanying increase in tensile shear strength.
- the joining period is 0.7 sec.
- the protruding portion 64 is formed at the bulging portion 63 , as shown in an enlarged scale in FIG. 6 , and the tensile shear strength is further increased.
- the joining period is longer than a given period (0.8 sec. in the present working example)
- the tensile shear strength is reduced contrarily because the first plate member W 1 at the interface S 2 becomes too thin, and so on.
- a range B in FIG. 3 indicates a range of the joint period where the fractured part is formed in a button shape (annular) in a plan view in the tensile shear test, and the most excellent joint strength was obtained in this range B.
- a range A indicates a range of the joint period where the fractured part in a plan view is discontinuous and does not form an annular shape in the tensile shear test. In the range A, the joint strength was lower than in the range B. Wherein, in the joining period of 0.4 sec., the annular bulging portion 63 was formed as shown in FIG. 4 , and the tensile shear strength was increased.
- the size of the mechanically joined part that is, the diameter R of the fractured part can be easily adjusted by changing the joining conditions such as the pressure and number of rotation of the rotary tool 4 , the joining period and the like, and therefore, it was found that a target joint strength can be obtained constantly.
- a 6000 series aluminum alloy of 1 mm in thickness was used as the first plate member W 1 and a 5000 series aluminum alloy of 2 mm in thickness was used as the second plate member W 2 .
- the work W was joined using the aforementioned friction point joining apparatus in which the pressure of the rotary tool 4 was set to be 3.92 kN, the number of rotation thereof was set to be 3500 rpm and the joining period was set to be 0.8 sec.
- the joint part obtained is shown in an enlarged scale in FIG. 7 . It is understood that the bulging portion 63 was formed excellently in the friction spot joint structure in Working Example 2. It was found, as shown in an enlarged scale in FIG. 8 , that the continuous interface S 2 between the first plate member W 1 and the second plate member W 2 was formed at the bottom (encircled part C in FIG. 7 ) of the concave portion 61 .
