The connecting piece for laser welding the liner of the IV-type hydrogen storage bottle has the advantages that the circular structural section is preferably the section similar to the convex shape, namely the section similar to the convex shape, and the gas leakage path is prolonged, so that the barrier property is improved. The end surfaces of two sides of the upper end of the convex section are respectively in close contact with the end surface of the inner container, so that laser welding is facilitated; the lower end of the convex-shaped section is used for supporting and guiding and can prolong the length of the gas leakage path.
The invention relates to a connecting piece for laser welding an inner container of an IV-type hydrogen storage bottle, which adopts the following welding connection mode: the connecting piece is a transparent convex-shaped section connecting piece, the outer surfaces of two circular rings with smaller diameter sizes at the left end and the right end are matched with the inner surface of the opaque inner container of the hydrogen storage bottle, and the positioning effect of laser welding the opaque inner containers of the two sections of hydrogen storage bottles is achieved. The large ring with the larger middle diameter size has the two side end surfaces closely attached to the end surfaces of the opaque inner container of the hydrogen storage bottle, so that laser welding is facilitated, the diameter size of the outer surface of the large ring is the same as that of the opaque inner container of the hydrogen storage bottle, the outer surface of the opaque inner container of the hydrogen storage bottle after welding is flat, smooth and free of obvious bulges, and the inner container of the hydrogen storage bottle can be conveniently wound with fibers.
The forming process of the connecting piece for laser welding the liner of the IV-type hydrogen storage bottle adopts an axial variable-diameter extrusion or injection molding process.
The invention relates to a connecting piece for laser welding an inner container of an IV-type hydrogen storage bottle, which comprises the following specific connecting processes of a connecting piece structure and an inner container welding piece: and placing the two sections of formed to-be-welded inner containers on a welding operation table, and respectively clamping the two sections of to-be-welded inner containers by using a clamp. And moving the transparent connecting piece to the middle of the two inner containers to be welded through a manipulator. At the moment, the welding guide mechanism is operated to ensure that the end surfaces of the two sections of inner containers to be welded are gradually contacted with and tightly connected with the end surface of the transparent connecting piece. After the two inner containers are tightly contacted, the manipulator for clamping the transparent connecting piece is removed, the centering pressure of the two welding inner containers is continuously kept, and laser irradiation welding is respectively carried out on the contact surfaces of the two inner containers and the transparent connecting piece by using laser welding equipment.

Before welding, the inner container to be welded needs to be machined, so that the end face of the inner container can be tightly attached to the inverted trapezoidal inclined end face of the connecting piece.
As a structural alternative, the structural section of the connecting piece does not adopt a convex section, but directly adopts a rectangular section; as an alternative preferred scheme, the cross section of the connecting piece structure adopts an inverted triangular cross section, the end face of the welded liner needs to be machined, so that the end face of the liner is smooth and flat, and is tightly attached to the end face of the connecting piece structure.
Preferably, the structure of the convex-section connecting piece is changed into an inverted convex-section structure. The connecting mode of the connecting piece and the inner container is as follows: the connecting piece structure is a transparent circular ring with an inverted-convex cross section structure, the middle diameter of the circular ring is smaller, and the end surfaces of the two sides of the circular ring are tightly attached to the end surface of the opaque inner container of the hydrogen storage bottle, so that the positioning effect of laser welding the opaque inner containers of the two sections of hydrogen storage bottles is achieved. The inner surfaces of the left and right circular rings with larger diameter are matched with the outer surface of the opaque inner container of the hydrogen storage bottle, thus being beneficial to laser welding. This circular ring connecting piece of shape of falling protruding font cross-section structure when reducing the laser welding angle skew degree of difficulty, has increased hydrogen storage bottle inner bag and connecting piece laser welding's area, when improving hydrogen storage bottle inner bag laser welding intensity, has effectively prolonged the route of hydrogen seepage. In order to ensure that the outer diameter of the inner container is kept unchanged after the inner container of the hydrogen storage bottle is subjected to laser welding, and the next step of winding and processing of the inner container of the hydrogen storage bottle by fibers is facilitated, the welding part of the inner container of the hydrogen storage bottle needs to be subjected to necking thermal forming process treatment. The basic process of necking and thermoforming the inner container is as follows: the inner container is clamped and fixed at a position which is a certain distance away from the end face of the inner container, the area to be reduced is heated for a certain time, the forming male die is pushed to a specified position along the axial direction of the inner container, the movable forming female die is spirally folded along the radial direction of the inner container, the diameter of the area to be reduced of the area of the reduced area of the inner container is gradually reduced until the diameter is completely attached to the outer surface of the forming male die, the pressure is maintained for a period of time under certain pressure, the inner container is waited to be completely cooled, the forming female die is withdrawn along the radial direction. In addition, when the connecting piece is changed into a circular ring with an inverted-convex cross-section structure, the welding position of the inner container of the hydrogen storage bottle can adopt a variable-diameter extrusion process besides a necking thermoforming treatment process, so that the complicated necking thermoforming treatment work of the inner container before laser welding can be reduced, and the internal stress caused during necking thermoforming can be avoided.

The end surfaces of the two sides of the middle ring are tightly attached to the end surface of the opaque inner container of the hydrogen storage bottle, so that certain pressure can be applied to the two ends of the inner container conveniently. The outer surface of the inner ring is attached to the inner surface of the opaque inner container of the hydrogen storage bottle, and the inner ring and the middle ring play a role in positioning the opaque inner containers of the two hydrogen storage bottles by laser welding, so that the laser welding is facilitated. The diameter size of the outer circular ring is the same as that of the opaque inner container of the hydrogen storage bottle, the outer surface of the opaque inner container of the hydrogen storage bottle after welding is flat, smooth and free of obvious bulges, and the next step of winding and processing of the inner container of the hydrogen storage bottle by fibers is facilitated.

For example, after plasma treatment, the surface wettability and surface free energy of the non-transparent inner container of the hydrogen storage bottle made of the high-density polyethylene material are improved, the adhesion among the materials is obviously improved, and the laser transmission welding performance of the high-density polyethylene material is improved. After plasma treatment, the surface of the opaque inner container of the hydrogen storage bottle generates a plurality of uniform concave-convex, grooves and micro-gaps, thereby increasing the surface roughness of the material and the specific surface area. The increase of the surface roughness of the polymer enables the upper layer material and the lower layer material to easily form mechanical micro riveting in a molten state in the welding process, increases the mutual contact reaction area between the upper layer material and the lower layer material, easily forms Van der Waals force, and improves the welding strength and the sealing property of the liner of the IV-type hydrogen storage bottle.

The connecting piece structure for laser welding the opaque liner of the IV-type hydrogen storage bottle fully considers the requirements of the high-barrier opaque polymer composite material on barrier property and laser butt welding uniformity, improves the quality uniformity of laser butt welding seams, and does not reduce the barrier property of the welding seams. Meanwhile, the influence of material modification on the laser welding performance is considered, the strength and the sealing performance of the hydrogen storage bottle opaque liner during laser welding are improved by using the adhesive, modifying treatment, adding the absorbent and the like, the outer surface of the hydrogen storage bottle opaque liner after laser welding is flat, smooth and free of protrusions, and the later-stage fiber winding process treatment of the liner is facilitated.
