Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of laser welding, in particular to a laser welding head anti-collision protection device and method suitable for adopting a single-tin-ball transmission mode.
Background
The laser is used as a welding tool for ball planting application for decades, and the invention patent with the publication number of CN101722343A is a connecting pad interconnection device of a magnetic head gimbal assembly and a manufacturing method of the assembly, wherein the solder ball is placed in a slender nozzle, and is heated by the laser and sprayed to a part to be welded under the action of internal pressure; the invention patent with publication number CN103817438A, a solder ball welding device and method, the invention patent with publication number CN104588812A, a ball solder welding device CN201410850887.3 and the utility model patent with publication number CN202114398U all have common characteristics: the laser focusing head or the laser output optical fiber is arranged right above the welding nozzle or the tin ball jet orifice of the welding nozzle or the tin ball jet orifice, and the diameter of an inner hole of the welding nozzle is smaller than the diameter of the tin ball; in practical applications, the distance from the welding nozzle to the workpiece is usually larger than the diameter of the solder ball and smaller than twice the diameter of the solder ball, for example, when the solder ball with the diameter of 600um is used, the distance from the nozzle to the workpiece should be between 0.6mm and 1.2 mm; meanwhile, before welding by adopting the method related to the patent, the welding position is usually determined by performing precise positioning, machine vision positioning is usually adopted in the existing industrial production, but the method is influenced by the consistency of the machined parts, for example, the forward or oblique placement of the machined parts in the placement direction can influence the method, and the accurate coordinates can not be obtained every time in 100 percent; inaccurate positioning may cause collision of the welding nozzle with peripheral tools, such as devices for fixing machined parts; the nozzle adopted by the laser tin ball welding is made of tungsten alloy or other high-temperature-resistant high-hardness alloys, although the tungsten alloy or other high-temperature-resistant high-hardness alloys have high hardness, the tungsten alloy or other high-temperature-resistant high-hardness alloys are very brittle, and the welding nozzle can be damaged by slight collision; therefore, various anti-collision methods are adopted in some laser tin ball welding devices.
In the conventional method, as shown in fig. 1, a solder ball transmission body 101, a soldering nozzle 102, a sending end 103 of a distance measuring sensor and a receiving end 104 of the distance measuring sensor are adopted, the sending end 103 of the distance measuring sensor and the receiving end 104 of the distance measuring sensor jointly form the distance measuring sensor, and a laser distance sensor is usually used in actual engineering construction; the distance from the nozzle to the workpiece can be obtained by measuring the distance from the distance measuring sensor to the workpiece 105 to be welded and then subtracting the fixed distance from the nozzle to the distance measuring sensor; the first traditional method has the advantages that the distance measurement process is fast, non-contact type and the laser distance measurement has extremely high precision; the laser distance sensor has the disadvantages that the price of the laser distance sensor is very high, in addition, the requirements on the surface of the material are met, some transparent materials cannot be measured, meanwhile, the laser sensor has an included angle between incident light and reflected light, and the laser distance sensor can not be used for a jig with a hole structure or a step because the laser is blocked; as shown in fig. 2, a solder ball transmission body 101, a soldering nozzle 102 and a proximity sensor 106 are adopted in the second conventional method, which is lower in cost than the first conventional method, but the proximity sensor 106 adopted in the second conventional method can only detect the approach of a metal material, and cannot be used for non-metals such as bakelite and plastic, and the measurement accuracy of the proximity sensor 106 is lower than that of the first conventional method, and can only reach 0.1mm magnitude; the third traditional method adopts the height dial indicator to replace the proximity sensor 106, and has the advantages that the height dial indicator has the highest measurement accuracy compared with a laser ranging sensor and the proximity sensor, but the third traditional method has obvious defects that a probe of the height dial indicator is required to be lower than the welding nozzle 102 and can contact a workpiece, and the probe of the height dial indicator is greatly likely to collide with a welding jig during welding to cause damage to the height dial indicator.

the preset distance value should be larger than the diameter of the solder ball and smaller than twice the diameter of the solder ball, and the preset distance value can be an accurate value or an interval value.
S2: the processor 207 controls the switch 208 to open, which causes the solenoid coil 202 to be connected to the power source 209, and the solenoid coil 202 and the core 201 generate a magnetic field.
As shown in fig. 4, the columnar permanent magnet 204 is attracted by the iron core 201 and moves upward, the elastic member 203 is compressed, the columnar permanent magnet 204 moves upward so that the columnar permanent magnet 204 enters the solenoid coil 202 with the hollow inside, and the permanent magnet 204 is in close contact with the iron core 201; the sensor 206 measures the magnetic field strength value generated by the permanent magnet 204 at that time, which is recorded by the processor 207 as a.
S3, the processor 207 controls the switch 208 to disconnect the solenoid coil 202 from the power supply 209, and the magnetic field disappears when no current passes through the solenoid coil 202; the iron core 201 loses the attraction to the permanent magnet 204, and the permanent magnet 204 is ejected out of the interior of the solenoid coil 202 by the elastic member 203.

in the solenoid coil 202 de-energized state, the height difference h1 between the tip of the probe 205 and the tip of the welding nozzle 102 is a fixed value; however, as the mounting plate 304 moves up and down under the driving of the motor 301, the distance h2 between the tip of the probe 205 and the workpiece 105 changes, and the present invention can calculate the distance h2 between the tip of the probe 205 and the workpiece 105, and further calculate the distance between the welding nozzle 102 and the workpiece 105, so as to prevent the welding nozzle 102 from being damaged due to collision between the welding nozzle 102 and the workpiece 105.
S8: after the distance measurement between the welding nozzle 102 and the welding workpiece 105 is completed, repeating the steps S1 and S2 to retract the probe 205;
the distance between the welding nozzle and the workpiece is usually larger than the diameter of the solder ball and smaller than twice of the diameter of the solder ball, the distance between the welding nozzle 102 and the workpiece 105 can be determined in advance, when the distance h1+ h2 between the welding nozzle 102 and the workpiece 105 is calculated to be a predetermined value, the motor stops rotating, the mounting plate does not move downwards any more, and the welding nozzle 102 is prevented from continuously moving downwards to touch the workpiece to be welded to cause damage;
when the distance between the probe 205 and the workpiece 105 is obtained, the probe 205 is in contact with the workpiece 105, but when welding operation is performed, the probe 205 cannot be in contact with the workpiece 105, the probe 205 is prevented from being damaged, at this time, the probe 205 needs to be retracted, but at this time, the probe 205 cannot be retracted by upward movement of the mounting plate 204, and since the upward movement of the mounting plate 204 simultaneously causes the change of the distance between the welding nozzle 102 and the workpiece 105, the distance from the welding nozzle to the workpiece may be more than twice the diameter of the solder ball, therefore, after the distance measurement between the welding nozzle 102 and the workpiece 105 to be welded is completed, if the distance h1+ h2 between the welding nozzle 102 and the workpiece 105 to be welded is consistent with the distance value preset in the step S1, before the welding operation is performed, a magnetic field is generated by the solenoid coil 202 and the iron core 201, the columnar permanent magnet 204 is attracted by the iron core 201 to move upward to drive the probe 205 to move, so that the lowest end of the probe 205 is away from the workpiece 105 to be welded, and the risk of collision and damage of the probe 205 during the welding operation is prevented; since the probe 205 needs to contact the workpiece 105 to be welded when the distance between the welding nozzle 102 and the workpiece 105 is obtained, and the probe 205 needs to be retracted during welding, the self-checking program is set in the step S5 to prevent the probe 205 from being stuck and unable to move up and down along with the expansion and contraction of the spring.
The solenoid coil 202 and the iron core 201 form an electromagnet function together, and the magnetic attraction generated by the solenoid coil 202 and the iron core 201 only needs to attract the permanent magnet 204 and overcome the elasticity of the elastic component 203 and then tightly cling to the iron core 201; the iron core 201 has two functions, one is to enhance the magnetic properties of the solenoid coil 202, and the other is to restrict the position of the permanent magnet 204.
The permanent magnet 204 of the present invention is a conventional permanent magnet whose north and south poles are arranged in an up-down arrangement with no effect on the method of the present invention.
The probe 205 is a rigid material which is not magnetic and can not be magnetized, and can be plastic, aluminum, ceramic and the like, and the specific components of the rigid material have no influence on the method; when the solenoid coil 202 is de-energized, the probe needs to be lower than the welding nozzle 102 at its most point when the electromagnet is not attracted.
The sensor 206 of the present invention is a semiconductor device using hall effect, which can generate current under the action of magnetic field lorentz force; this is a common technique and device in the industry. The method of the invention has no requirement on the absolute value of the output of the Hall magnetic core sensor.
The processor 207 of the present invention is a logic control device that can operate according to the steps of the present invention; it may be of the type of microprocessor, computer, programmable controller, or relay combination.
Finally, it should be noted that: while the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, it will be apparent to one skilled in the art that modifications may be made to the embodiments described above, or equivalents may be substituted for elements thereof without departing from the scope of the invention. Any modification, equivalent replacement, or improvement made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
