- the timing of dividing the energization pattern into two steps is, for example, when the melted part starts to form between the steel plates that are the welded materials (the energization path is formed immediately below the electrodes). At the time of being started). In this case, in order to determine this timing, a plurality of weldings are performed with various welding current values and energization times under a constant pressure F, and a time point at which a melted portion starts to be formed is found. The formation of the melted part can be confirmed by a peel test. Then, it is assumed that the melted portion is formed with the current value I 1 and the energization time T 1 . This is the first stage welding condition in the test welding.

Then, it is assumed that a desired nugget diameter is formed with the current value I 2 and the energization time T 2 . This is the second stage welding condition in the test welding.
- ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ Test welding is performed on the welded material of the same steel type and thickness as the weld specimen used for preliminary welding under the determined conditions. Then, the time change of the instantaneous heat generation amount per unit volume and the cumulative heat generation amount per unit volume calculated from the electrical characteristics between the electrodes during the test welding are stored as target values for each step.

- welding is started on the basis of the time change curve of the instantaneous calorific value per unit volume obtained by the test welding. In any of the steps, if the time change amount of the instantaneous heat generation amount per unit volume is along the reference time change curve, welding is performed as it is, and the welding is finished.
- adaptive control welding is performed when the time change amount of the instantaneous calorific value per unit volume deviates from the reference time change curve. Specifically, the energization amount is controlled so that the difference is compensated within the remaining energization time of the step. In this way, the cumulative heat generation amount per unit volume in the main welding is made to coincide with the cumulative heat generation amount per unit volume determined in advance by test welding. As a result, the electrode tip is worn or a necessary accumulated heat generation amount can be secured even in the presence of disturbance, and a nugget with an appropriate diameter can be obtained.
- the total thickness of the two workpieces is t
- the electrical resistivity of the workpieces is r
- the voltage between the electrodes is V
- the welding current is I
- the area where the electrodes and the workpiece are in contact is S.

- the electrical resistance R of this columnar part is calculated
- the calorific value q per unit volume and unit time is not affected by the area S where the electrode and the workpiece are in contact.
- the calorific value q is calculated from the interelectrode voltage V in the formula (3)
- the calorific value q can also be calculated from the interelectrode current I.
- the area where the electrode and the workpiece are in contact with each other can also be calculated. There is no need to use S.
- the cumulative calorific value Q per unit volume applied to welding can be obtained.
- the cumulative calorific value Q per unit volume can also be calculated without using the area S where the electrode and the material to be welded contact.
- the disturbance when particularly significant, for example, (1) when a particularly large nugget diameter needs to be secured (for example, when the nugget diameter is 4.5 ⁇ t or more), (2) There are existing weld points in the immediate vicinity of the weld point (for example, when the distance between the weld point and the existing weld point is 7 mm or less), or there are many existing weld points around the weld point (for example, the weld point).
- the heat quantity pattern of the welded part is different from the target heat quantity pattern in test welding, and sometimes the heat generation near the electrode becomes excessive. As described above, there are cases where scattering occurs and a nugget having a satisfactory diameter cannot be obtained.
- the energization pattern is divided into two steps for both the test welding and the main welding.
- the first step energization is performed until the interface between the steel plates disappears, and in the second step, a predetermined nugget diameter is obtained.
- some melted portions may be formed as long as no scattering occurs when adaptive control is performed.
- the current value of the first step (step for securing a current-carrying path immediately below the electrode) and the subsequent second step (step for forming a nugget of a predetermined diameter) in the test welding is described. It is important to optimize the relationship and to effectively lower the temperature near the electrode in the main welding so that the heat quantity pattern of the welded part in the main welding conforms to the heat quantity pattern in the target test welding. .
- test welding of the first step and the second step is performed, and the temporal change in instantaneous calorific value per unit volume and the cumulative calorific value per unit volume in each step are stored.
- the current value I a of the first step I x or more the cumulative amount of heat generated per unit volume at the welding, deviates significantly from the cumulative amount of heat generated per unit volume has been stored in the test weld (target value) At this time, scattering tends to occur in the first step of the main welding.
- the energization time T 1 (cycle / 50 Hz) of the first step is preferably 3 cycles or more and 10 cycles or less.
- the first step of the energization time T 1 is less than 3 cycles, heating value is low, can not be ensured conduction path between the steel sheet, scattering occurs in the second step or later.
- the energization time T 1 of the first step is more than 10 cycles, when the cumulative amount of heat generated per unit volume at the weld is largely deviated from the target value, scattering is likely to occur in the first step of the present welding Become.
- the melting portion may be formed as long as no scattering occurs when adaptive control is performed.
- the pressure F is preferably about 1.0 to 7.0 kN in each step. Note that the pressure F may be the same or different between the test welding and the main welding. Moreover, you may change the applied pressure F during electricity supply as needed.
- the material to be welded is a plated steel plate
- the specific resistance of the material to be welded increases as the temperature rises, the specific resistance value also increases with the energization time. That is, following the decrease in inter-electrode resistance due to energization area expansion, the inter-electrode resistance increases due to the increase in the temperature of the material to be welded, and then a melted part is formed. Therefore, the stage where the energization area rapidly expands after the plating melts, the stage until a stable energization path (melting part) is formed between the electrodes by energization thereafter, and the subsequent nugget growth process
- the welding process is disassembled and adaptive control welding is performed at each stage to compensate for the cumulative heat generation per unit volume. As a result, even if there is a welded point near the welding point by resistance spot welding of the plated steel sheet, a current-carrying path is stably formed, and stable nugget growth is possible in the subsequent third step.
- Example 1 As a material to be welded, a steel material (270 MPa) having a thickness of 1.6 mm was prepared. In addition, both the test welding and the main welding are performed by dividing the energization pattern into two stages.
- this welding material is stacked two times, and pre-welding is performed with constant current control in a state where there is no diversion to the gap or the existing welding point, and the welding conditions for obtaining an appropriate nugget diameter are obtained. It was.

That is, resistance spot welding was started based on a time change curve of instantaneous calorific value per unit volume obtained by test welding. Further, in both the first stage and the second stage, when the temporal change in instantaneous calorific value per unit volume deviates from the reference time change curve, the difference is within the remaining energization time of the step.

の関係を満たすように制御する。第1ステップにおける電流値Iaが0.3×Ix未満では、本溶接で発熱量が低く、鋼板間の通電経路を確保することができず、第2ステップ以降で散りが発生する。一方、第1ステップの電流値IaがIx以上では、本溶接での単位体積当たりの累積発熱量が、テスト溶接で記憶させた単位体積当たりの累積発熱量(目標値)から大きく外れた際に、本溶接の第1ステップで散りが発生しやすくなる。
被溶接材として、厚みが1.6mmの鋼材(270MPa)を準備した。また、テスト溶接及び本溶接ともに、通電パターンを2段に分割して行うこととした。
被溶接材として厚みが1.6mmの鋼材(270MPa)に対して、溶接点の近傍(溶接点中央間隔:10mm)に予め既溶接点が存在する同じ条件で、定電流制御による抵抗スポット溶接を行った。溶接条件は、上記テスト溶接と同じ(1段目を加圧力:3.5kN、溶接電流:7.0kA、通電時間:5cyc、2段目を加圧力:3.5kN、溶接電流:9.0kA、通電時間:13cyc)とした。
以下の方法で、従来の1段適応制御溶接を行った。
次に、表1に示す2枚の薄鋼板を重ね合わせた板組み、溶接条件で抵抗スポット溶接を行い、溶接継手を作製した。なお、テスト溶接は、表1に示す条件で既溶接点のない状態で行った。本溶接は、表1に示す条件で行った。なお、表1中の「本溶接の制御方法」における「2段適応制御」は、上記実施例1に記載の本溶接の方法であり、「定電流制御」は、上記比較例1に記載の方法であり、「1段適応制御」は、上記比較例2に記載の本溶接の方法である。
