本文涉及一種適用于使用超高強度鋼的汽車白車身結構強度焊接的方法，用于完成了車身GEO定位焊后增加車身結構強度的白車身點焊，屬于汽車制造技術領域。

背景技術：

隨著對汽車安全、節能等要求的提升，基于固溶強化、沉淀強化、細化晶粒、位錯強化和相變強化(馬氏體)的超高強度鋼進入了實際生產應用階段。為了提高和滿足碰撞安全性能并提高車身部件強度，超高強度熱成型剛點焊性能和技術的重要性就凸顯了出來。

傳統的汽車白車身使用的是鍍鋅板，兩層鍍鋅板焊接時，使用鐵屑進行夾緊定位。由于高強度熱成型鋼本身的材料特性，熱成型鋼白車身的焊接技術需要更強的焊接壓力、更長的焊接時間和能量，故傳統的定位銷無法滿足高強度的夾具定位需求，其耐磨性和強度都達不到工藝要求，無法滿足焊接尺寸和固定定位尺寸精度的要求。在不滿足精度的環境情況下，如果兩層鋼板直接搭接和預壓會出現空隙或者出現在非規劃的位置焊接的情況，對汽車整體的產品質量和結構強度有著較大的影響。

二、熱成型鋼的白車身焊接壓力相比鍍鋅板起點壓力要求較高，隨著板厚的增加相比鍍鋅板的焊接壓力增幅從70％下降到30％左右；

三、由于熱成型鋼細化晶粒、位錯強化和相變強化(馬氏體)的特點，焊接時間相比鍍鋅板的增幅在100％左右，需要更長的焊接保壓時間以熔穿鋼板，不足夠的焊接保壓時間在實驗中會造成虛焊或焊接強度不夠等各種質量欠缺的問題，故足夠的焊接時間針對熱成型剛是必須的；

四、熱成型鋼的焊接電流，相比鍍鋅板相差無幾，即當焊接同板厚時所需的能量幾乎一致；

五、綜合比較熱成型鋼(硼鋼)的焊接參數，較傳統鍍鋅板在保持焊點尺寸和電極帽尺寸的情況下，各項焊接參數均需要提升30％～100％以滿足熱成型鋼的焊接需求。

為配套熱成型鋼的使用，本發明創新性地利用陶瓷銷作為夾具的定位，并同時對電極帽壓塊使用了高硬度熱處理工藝，以保證白車身焊接過程中尺寸的穩定性，提高配套夾具整體精度和耐磨使用壽命。

在工藝參數方面，通過不斷的測試和檢測焊接質量、焊接剪切強度位移及測試焊接后的電極縮進量等，將熱成型鋼的焊接電流、焊接壓力和焊接保壓時間等固化和保留下來，開創并建立了國內熱成型鋼白車身焊接的一套技術指標。

通過陶瓷定位銷和焊接工藝參數的使用，不僅可以提高白車身的焊接定位精度，同時可以補全熱成型鋼白車身應用領域的實踐空白，為制定行業標準和提高焊接速率提供了基礎。

It is used to complete the body-in-white spot welding which increases the structural strength of the vehicle body after GEO welding. It belongs to the field of automobile manufacturing technology.



Background technique:

With the improvement of requirements for safety and energy saving of automobiles, ultra-high-strength steels based on solid solution strengthening, precipitation strengthening, grain refinement, dislocation strengthening and phase transformation strengthening (martensite) have entered the practical production application stage. In order to improve and meet crash safety performance and increase the strength of body parts, the importance of ultra-high strength thermoforming just spot welding performance and technology is highlighted.

The traditional car body-in-white uses a galvanized sheet, and when the two-layer galvanized sheet is welded, it is clamped and positioned using iron filings. Due to the material properties of high-strength thermoformed steel, the welding technology of thermoformed steel body-in-white requires stronger welding pressure, longer welding time and energy, so the traditional positioning pin can not meet the high-strength fixture positioning requirements. The wear and strength are not up to the process requirements, and the welding size and the fixed positioning dimensional accuracy cannot be met. In the case of an environment that does not meet the accuracy, if the two layers of steel plates are directly overlapped and pre-stressed, there will be voids or welding in an unplanned position, which has a great influence on the overall product quality and structural strength of the automobile.

Preferably, the electrode cap is subjected to a heat treatment process for increasing hardness.

Preferably, in the step 4, the joint shear strength displacement is ≤5 s/mm.

Preferably, in the step 4, the electrode retraction amount is consistent by ≥97%.

Preferably, in the step 4, when the thickness of the thin plate in the two-layer steel plate is 1.1 to 2 mm, the welding pressure is 4.4 to 6 KN, the welding time is 460 to 660 ms, the welding current is 12.5 to 15.5 ms, and the electrode cap diameter is 16 ~20mm.

Preferably, in the step 4, the welding parameters are as shown in Table 1:

Table 1 Thermoforming steel welding parameters table

In Table 1, the plate thickness indicates the thickness of the thin plate in the two-layer steel plate, and the diameter of the contact surface indicates the diameter of the contact face of the electrode cap and the steel plate.

Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

2) Welding point shear strength displacement: ≤ 5s / mm;

3) The amount of electrode indentation (residual thickness of thermoformed steel base material) is ≥97%

4) The welding pressure of the welding torch is twice that of ordinary galvanized sheet.

The traditional galvanized sheet and the hot-formed steel (Boron-Steel) of the present invention were subjected to a plurality of experimental processes, and the same thickness was controlled to compare the welding parameters, thereby realizing the combination of welding theory and practice. The welding process parameter setting law of the hot-formed steel body-in-white is realized, and the application of the hot-formed body welding in the actual production process is realized. According to the spot welding resistance parameter standard ES-6M2A-1K251-A*, the electrode parameters are implemented according to ISO5821, and the experimental research on welding parameters of laminated welding of carbon steel, laminated welding of high-strength coated steel and GMT welding of alloy sheet, experimental data as follows:

Table 1 Thermoforming steel welding parameters table

Table 2 Traditional plate welding parameter table

The welding parameters of thermoformed steel and traditional plate are shown in Table 1 and Table 2. The relationship between welding pressure and plate thickness of traditional plate and thermoformed steel is shown in Figure 1. The relationship between welding time and plate thickness of traditional plate and thermoformed steel is For example, as shown in Figure 2, the relationship between welding current and plate thickness of conventional sheet and thermoformed steel is shown in Figure 3.

It can be seen from the above data:

First, the welding current, voltage and welding time on the hot-formed steel application settings, according to the thickness of the plate, the curve and trend is almost the same as ordinary galvanized sheet;

Second, the white body welding pressure of the hot-formed steel is higher than the starting pressure of the galvanized sheet. As the thickness increases, the welding pressure increase of the galvanized sheet decreases from 70% to about 30%;

Third, due to the characteristics of refinement grain, dislocation strengthening and phase transformation strengthening (martensite) of thermoformed steel, the welding time is about 100% higher than that of galvanized sheet, which requires a longer welding dwell time to melt Wearing steel plates, insufficient welding dwell time will cause various problems such as insufficient welding or insufficient welding strength in the experiment, so sufficient welding time is necessary for thermoforming;

Fourth, the welding current of the hot-formed steel is almost the same as that of the galvanized sheet, that is, the energy required for welding the same plate thickness is almost the same;

V. Comprehensive comparison of the welding parameters of hot-formed steel (boron steel). Compared with the traditional galvanized sheet, the welding parameters need to be increased by 30% to 100% to meet the hot-rolled steel. Welding requirements.

In order to support the use of thermoformed steel, the invention innovatively utilizes the ceramic pin as the positioning of the fixture, and at the same time uses a high hardness heat treatment process for the electrode cap compact to ensure dimensional stability during the body-in-white welding process and improve the supporting fixture.
