Description

Ultraschall-Schweißeinrichtung  Ultrasonic welding device
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Ultraschall-Schweißeinrichtung mit einer Ultraschallschwingungen übertragenden Sonotrode und einem auf einem Ambossträger angeordneten Amboss, wobei der Amboss auswechselbar auf dem Ambossträger angeordnet ist, derart, dass eine Auflagerfläche des Amboss mit einer durch eine Vorspanneinrichtung erzeugten Normalkraft gegen eine Stützfläche des Ambossträgers anliegt. The present invention relates to an ultrasonic welding device with a sonotrode transmitting ultrasonic vibrations and an anvil arranged on an anvil, the anvil being replaceably arranged on the anvil carrier, such that a bearing surface of the anvil with a normal force generated by a pretensioning device against a support surface of the anvil carrier is applied.

KOBRA" der Schunk Sonosystems GmbH mit Veröffentlichungsdatum 08/2007 ist eine Ultraschall-Schweißeinrichtung der eingangs genannten Art bekannt. Die bekannte, als Schweißzange ausgeführte Ultraschall- Schweißeinrichtung weist einen auf einem Ambossträger austauschbar angeordneten Amboss auf, der mittels einer Schraubverbindung, die eine als Normalkraft zwischen einer Stützfläche des Ambossträgers und einer Auflagerfläche des Amboss wirkende Vorspannkraft erzeugt, in einer Verbindungsebene zwischen der Auflagerfläche des Amboss und der Stützfläche des Ambossträgers fixiert gehalten wird, um zu verhindern, dass Längsschwingungen der Sonotrode, die durch die Auflagerfläche des Amboss auf die Stützfläche des Ambossträgers übertragen werden, zu Relativbewegungen zwischen dem Amboss und dem Ambossträger führen. Ein Auftreten derartiger Relativbewegungen könnte ansonsten dazu führen, dass es zwischen dem Amboss und dem Ambossträger in der Verbindungsebene zu lokalen Verschweißungen kommt, die eine für den Austausch des Amboss notwendige Trennung des Amboss vom Ambossträger verhindern würden. KOBRA "of the Schunk Sonosystems GmbH with publication date 08/2007 is known, the known ultrasonic welding device designed as a welding tongs has an anvil which is arranged exchangeably on an anvil carrier and which by means of a screw connection, the one as a normal force between a support surface of the anvil support and a bearing surface of the anvil acting biasing force is held fixed in a connecting plane between the bearing surface of the anvil and the support surface of the anvil support, to prevent longitudinal vibrations of the sonotrode passing through the support surface of the anvil are transferred to the support surface of the anvil carrier, lead to relative movements between the anvil and the anvil carrier. Otherwise, the occurrence of such relative movements could lead to local welds between the anvil and the anvil carrier in the connection plane, which would prevent a separation of the anvil from the anvil carrier necessary for the replacement of the anvil.
In der Praxis hat sich nun herausgestellt, dass es bei einer Miniaturisierung des Ambosses und entsprechend klein dimensionierter Schraubver- bindung zwischen dem Amboss und dem Ambossträger nicht möglich ist, eine ausreichende Vorspannkraft zwischen dem Amboss und dem Ambossträger zu erzeugen, um die Unterdrückung der unerwünschten Relativbewegung zwischen dem Amboss und dem Ambossträger zu gewährleisten. Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Ultraschall-Schweißeinrichtung vorzuschlagen, die eine wirksame In practice, it has now been found that it is not possible with a miniaturization of the anvil and correspondingly small screwed connection between the anvil and the anvil carrier to produce a sufficient biasing force between the anvil and the anvil support to suppress the unwanted relative movement between the anvil and the anvil support. The present invention is therefore based on the object to propose an ultrasonic welding device, the effective
Fixierung des Amboss auf dem Ambossträger auch bei relativ geringen Normalkräften ermöglicht. Fixing of the anvil on the anvil support possible even at relatively low normal forces.
Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe weist die erfindungsgemäße Ultraschall- Schweißeinrichtung die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 auf. To solve this problem, the ultrasonic welding device according to the invention has the features of claim 1.
Erfindungsgemäß weist die Auflagerfläche des Amboss eine Oberflächenhärte auf, die größer ist als die Oberflächenhärte der Stützfläche des Ambossträgers, wobei die Auflagerfläche zumindest im Bereich einer Teilfläche eine Flächenstruktur aufweist, und wobei die Auflagerfläche zumindest im Bereich der Teilfläche eine Oberflächenrauheit mit According to the invention, the support surface of the anvil has a surface hardness which is greater than the surface hardness of the support surface of the anvil support, the support surface having a surface structure at least in the region of a partial surface, and wherein the support surface has a surface roughness at least in the region of the partial surface
Rz/Ra > 2 aufweist. R z / R a > 2.
Die unterschiedlich ausgebildete Oberflächenhärte mit einer gegenüber der Stützfläche des Ambossträgers vergleichsweise härter ausgebildeten Auflagerfläche des Amboss ermöglicht, dass eine zumindest in einer Teilfläche der Auflagerfläche ausgebildete Flächenstruktur sich unter Normalkrafteinwirkung in die Stützfläche einprägen kann, wenn die Auflagerfläche zumindest im Bereich der Teilfläche eine Oberflächenrauheit mit Rz/Ra > 2 aufweist. Bei diesem Verhältnis in der Oberflächenrauheit wird der Mittenrauwert Ra von der gemittelten Rautiefe Rz in ausreichendem Maße überschritten, um durch die Flächenstruktur ein wirksames Bewegungshindernis für eine Relativbewegung in Richtung der Längsschwingungen der Sonotrode auszubilden. Grundsätzlich wird von der Überlegung ausgegangen, dass eine Fixierung, also eine axiale Festlegung des Amboss gegenüber dem Ambossträger erreicht wird, wenn zumindest im Bereich einer Teilfläche eine Flächenstruktur ein Hindernis für eine Relativbewegung in Längsschwingungsrichtung der Sonotrode ausbildet. Wenn gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform die Flächenstruktur eine lineare Strukturkomponente mit einer zumindest abschnittsweise unter einem Anstellwinkel α gegenüber der Längsschwingungsrichtung der Sonotrode geneigten Ausrichtung aufweist, kann beispielsweise bereits eine einzelne linienförmige Struktur mit einer unter einem Win- kel α zur Längsschwingungsrichtung der Sonotrode als Linienabschnitt ausgebildeten Strukturkomponente ausreichend sein. Die Linienstruktur kann dabei geradlinig oder als Schlangenlinie ausgebildet sein. The differently shaped surface hardness with a relative to the support surface of the anvil carrier comparatively harder formed bearing surface of the anvil allows that at least in one Part surface of the support surface formed surface structure can impress under normal force in the support surface, if the support surface has a surface roughness with R z / R a > 2 at least in the region of the partial surface. At this ratio in the surface roughness, the average roughness R a of the averaged roughness R z is sufficiently exceeded in order to form an effective obstacle to movement by the surface structure for a relative movement in the direction of the longitudinal vibrations of the sonotrode. Basically, it is assumed that a fixation, that is to say an axial fixing of the anvil with respect to the anvil carrier, is achieved if a surface structure forms an obstacle to a relative movement in the longitudinal direction of vibration of the sonotrode, at least in the region of a partial surface. If according to a preferred embodiment, the surface structure has a linear structure component with an at least partially inclined at an angle α relative to the longitudinal direction of the sonotrode alignment, for example, already a single line-shaped structure with a α under an angle α to the longitudinal direction of the sonotrode formed as a line segment structural component be enough. The line structure can be formed in a straight line or as a serpentine line.
Vorzugsweise weist die Stützfläche des Ambossträgers eine Oberflächenhärte kleiner als 58 HRC und die Auflagerfläche des Amboss eine Ober- flächenhärte größer als 59 HRC auf. Preferably, the support surface of the anvil carrier has a surface hardness of less than 58 HRC and the bearing surface of the anvil has a surface hardness greater than 59 HRC.
Obwohl zur grundsätzlichen Ausbildung eines Bewegungshindernisses, das einer Relativbewegung in Richtung der Längsschwingungen der Sonotrode entgegensteht, bereits eine lineare Strukturkomponente einen positiven Effekt bewirkt, der es ermöglicht, auch bei reduzierter Normal- kraft eine Relativbewegung wirksam entgegen zu wirken, hat es sich als besonders vorteilhaft herausgestellt, wenn die Flächenstruktur aus einem Linienraster gebildet ist, wobei vorzugsweise der Raster erhabene Rasterlinien aufweist mit einer durch Rz bestimmten Höhe. Eine reproduzierbare Ausgestaltung des Linienrasters wird möglich, wenn der Raster mittels Laserbeaufschlagung von zumindest einer Although a basic structure of a movement obstacle, which precludes a relative movement in the direction of the longitudinal vibrations of the sonotrode, even a linear structural component causes a positive effect, which makes it possible, even at reduced normal In order to effectively counteract a relative movement, it has proven to be particularly advantageous if the surface structure is formed from a line grid, wherein preferably the grid has raised grid lines with a height determined by R z . A reproducible embodiment of the line grid is possible if the grid by means of laser irradiation of at least one
Teilfläche der Auflagerfläche erzeugt ist, wobei eine in einem Fräsverfahren bearbeitete Auflagerfläche des Amboss zur Erzeugung der Rasterlinien mit einem Laserstrahl in parallel zueinander angeordneten Vor- schubwegen gescannt werden kann. Partial surface of the bearing surface is generated, wherein a machined in a milling process bearing surface of the anvil for generating the grid lines can be scanned with a laser beam in parallel feed paths.
Hierdurch sind beispielsweise Werte für die Oberflächenrauheit As a result, for example, values for the surface roughness
Rz = 25 μιη, also entsprechend einer Fräsbearbeitung der Auflagerfläche, und Ra = 5 μιη, also entsprechend einer Laserbearbeitung der Auflageroberfläche, möglich. Eine vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung ist bereits erzielbar, wenn die Auflagerfläche zumindest im Bereich der Teilfläche eine Oberflächenrauheit mit Rz/Ra > 5 aufweist. R z = 25 μιη, thus according to a milling of the support surface, and R a = 5 μιη, that is, according to a laser processing of the support surface, possible. An advantageous embodiment can already be achieved if the bearing surface has a surface roughness with R z / R a > 5 at least in the region of the partial surface.
In Untersuchungen hat sich herausgestellt, dass weitere Verbesserungen möglich sind, wenn Rz > 8 μιη ist und noch weitere Verbesserungen, wenn Rz > 20 μιη ist. Investigations have shown that further improvements are possible if R z > 8 μιη and even further improvements if R z > 20 μιη.
Bei einer Oberflächenrauheit von Rz > 25 μιη, die wie vorstehend bereits beispielhaft erwähnt, durch eine Fräsbearbeitung der Auflagerfläche möglich ist, kann zur Erzielung des gewünschten Verhältnisses von Ra/Rz in besonders vorteilhafter Weise eine Laserbeaufschlagung der Auflager- fläche zur Ausbildung einer rasterförmigen Flächenstruktur eingesetzt werden. In a surface roughness of R z > 25 μιη, which as already mentioned by way of example, by milling the support surface is possible to achieve the desired ratio of R a / R z in a particularly advantageous manner, a laser loading of Auflager- surface to form a grid-shaped surface structure can be used.

Das obere Zangenteil 1 1 weist als wesentlichen Bestandteil eine Ultraschallschwingungseinrichtung mit einer am vorderen Ende der Ultraschallschwingungseinrichtung angeordneten Sonotrode 14 auf, die eine erste Schweißbacke ausbildet. An dem Zangengehäuse 13 ist gegenüber der Sonotrode 14 bewegbar gelagert ein Amboss 15 angeordnet, der mittels einer hier als Schraubverbindung 1 6 (Fig. 2) ausgebildeten Vorspanneinrichtung auswechselbar mit einem Ambossträger 17 verbunden ist. 1 shows an isometric view of an ultrasonic welding device 10 designed as an ultrasonic welding gun with an upper tong part 11 and a lower tong part 12, which are arranged in a common tong housing 13. The upper tong part 1 1 has as an essential part of an ultrasonic vibration device with a arranged at the front end of the ultrasonic vibrator sonotrode 14, which forms a first welding jaw. An anvil 15, which is connected in an exchangeable manner with an anvil carrier 17 by means of a pretensioning device designed here as a screw connection 16 (FIG. 2), is arranged on the tong housing 13 so as to be movable relative to the sonotrode 14.
Der Amboss 15 bildet eine zweite Schweißbacke aus, die mittels einer hier nicht näher dargestellten Betätigungseinrichtung um eine im hinteren Teil des Zangengehäuses 13 ausgebildete Schwenkachse 1 8 gegen die Sonotrode 14 verschwenkbar ist, derart, dass eine auf dem Amboss 15 ausgebildete Gegenfläche 19 gegen eine Arbeitsfläche 20 der im vorliegenden Fall Längsschwingungen ausführenden Sonotrode 14 bewegt wird. The anvil 15 forms a second welding jaw, which is pivotable by means of an actuator not shown here around a formed in the rear part of the tong housing 13 pivot axis 1 8 against the sonotrode 14, such that one on the anvil 15th formed counter-surface 19 is moved against a working surface 20 of the longitudinal oscillations in the present case sonotrode 14.
Wie aus der Darstellung in Fig. 2 deutlich wird, ist der Amboss 15 so über die Schraubverbindung 16 mit dem Ambossträger 17 verbunden, dass eine die Unterseite des Amboss 15 ausbildende Auflagerfläche 21 (siehe auch Fig. 3) auf einer die Oberseite des Ambossträgers 17 ausbildenden Stützfläche 22 aufliegt. Im vorliegenden Fall ist der Ambossträger 17 an seinen Längsrändern mit Führungsstegen 23 , 24 versehen, die eine axiale Führungseinrichtung 25 ausbilden, derart, dass zum Auswechseln des Amboss 15 der Amboss 15 nach Lösen der im vorliegenden Fall zwei Bolzenverbindungen 26, 27 umfassenden Schraubverbindung 16 in Längsrichtung 28 der Sonotrode 14, die im vorliegenden Fall mit der Haupt-Schwingungsrichtung der Sonotrode 14 übereinstimmt, ent- nommen werden kann. As is clear from the illustration in FIG. 2, the anvil 15 is connected to the anvil carrier 17 via the screw connection 16 in such a way that a support surface 21 forming the underside of the anvil 15 (see also FIG. 3) on a top side of the anvil carrier 17 forming support surface 22 rests. In the present case, the anvil support 17 is provided at its longitudinal edges with guide webs 23, 24, which form an axial guide device 25, such that for replacing the anvil 15 of the anvil 15 after loosening the two bolt connections 26, 27 in the present case screw 16 in Longitudinal direction 28 of the sonotrode 14, which in the present case coincides with the main direction of vibration of the sonotrode 14, can be taken.
Wie aus Fig. 2 ersichtlich, dient die Schraubverbindung 16 zur Erzeugung einer Klemm- oder Normalkraft N, mit der die Auflagerfläche 21 zur Fixierung des Amboss 15 in Längsrichtung 28 gegen die Stützfläche 22 gepresst wird. Wie Fig. 3 zeigt, ist die Auflagerfläche 21 des Amboss, in der im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel zwei Gewindebohrungen 29, 30 zur Ausführung der Bolzenverbindungen 26, 27 vorgesehen sind, im Bereich einer Teilfläche 3 1 mit einer, im vorliegenden Fall lediglich schematisch dargestellten Flächenstruktur 32 versehen, die eine Mehrzahl von, hier als Strukturlinien ausgebildeten Strukturkomponenten 33 versehen ist. Die Strukturkomponenten 33 bilden in der Auflagerfläche 21 zumindest teilweise oder abschnittsweise erhabene Rasterlinien 34 aus, die in dem in Fig. 2 dargestellten montierten Zustand des Amboss 15 gegen die Stützfläche 22 gerichtet und bei dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel unter einem Anstellwinkel α = 90° zur Längsrichtung geneigt sind. Der Amboss 15 sowie der Ambossträger 17 sind im vorliegenden Fall aus unterschiedlichen Materialien ausgebildet, so dass der Amboss 15 und der Ambossträger 17 zumindest im Bereich der Auflagerfläche 21 und der Stützfläche 22 unterschiedliche Oberflächenhärten aufweisen, die im vorliegenden Fall 62 HRC für den Amboss und 57 HRC für den Ambossträger 17 aufweisen. As can be seen from FIG. 2, the screw connection 16 serves to produce a clamping or normal force N, with which the support surface 21 for fixing the anvil 15 in the longitudinal direction 28 is pressed against the support surface 22. As shown in FIG. 3, the bearing surface 21 of the anvil, in which two threaded bores 29, 30 are provided for the execution of the bolt connections 26, 27 in the illustrated embodiment, in the region of a partial surface 3 1 with a surface structure 32 only schematically shown in the present case provided, which is provided a plurality of, here as structure lines formed structural components 33. The structural components 33 form in the support surface 21 at least partially or partially raised grid lines 34, which in the illustrated in Fig. 2 mounted state of the anvil 15 directed against the support surface 22 and inclined in the illustrated embodiment at an angle α = 90 ° to the longitudinal direction are. The anvil 15 and the anvil support 17 are formed in the present case of different materials, so that the anvil 15 and the anvil support 17 at least in the region of the support surface 21 and the support surface 22 have different surface hardness, in the present case 62 HRC for the anvil and 57 HRC for the anvil carrier 17 have.
Aufgrund der Ausbildung der erhabenen Rasterlinien 34 auf der Auflagerfläche 21 des Amboss 15 und der im Vergleich zur Stützfläche 22 des Ambossträgers 17 härter ausgebildeten Auflagerfläche 21 des Amboss 1 5 prägen sich die Rasterlinien 34 der Auflagerfläche 2 1 in die Stützfläche 22 des Ambossträgers 17 ein, so dass in einer Verbindungsebene 35 zwischen dem Amboss 1 5 und dem Ambossträger 17 bei Einwirkung einer genügend großen Normalkraft N eine Eingriffsverbindung ausgebildet ist, die eine Arretierung des Amboss 15 auf dem Ambossträger 17 in Längsrichtung 28 bewirkt, mit der Folge, dass über die Sonotrode 14 auf den Amboss 1 5 übertragene Längsschwingungen nicht zu Relativbewegungen zwischen dem Amboss 15 und dem Ambossträger 17 führen können. Due to the formation of the raised grid lines 34 on the support surface 21 of the anvil 15 and the hardened compared to the support surface 22 of the anvil support 17 bearing surface 21 of the anvil 1 5, the grid lines 34 of the support surface 2 1 in the support surface 22 of the anvil support 17 a, so that in a connecting plane 35 between the anvil 1 5 and the anvil support 17 upon application of a sufficiently large normal force N an engagement connection is formed, which causes a locking of the anvil 15 on the anvil carrier 17 in the longitudinal direction 28, with the result that on the sonotrode 14 transmitted to the anvil 1 5 longitudinal vibrations can not lead to relative movements between the anvil 15 and the anvil support 17.
Um eine Eingriffsverbindung zwischen dem Amboss 15 und dem Am- bossträger 1 7 zu gewährleisten, die den durch die Längsschwingungen der Sonotrode 14 verursachten, in der Verbindungsebene 35 wirkenden axialen Kräften F standhält, ist die Auflagerfläche 21 mit einer Oberfläche versehen, derart, dass Rz/Ra = 4 ist, also die gemittelte Rautiefe Rz das Vierfache des Mittenrauheitsgrads Ra beträgt. Fig. 4 zeigt eine Abbildung einer Auflagerfläche 36 eines Amboss 37 mit einer darin ausgebildeten Teilfläche 38 , die einen Linienraster 39 aufweist, der mittels einer Laserbeaufschlagung der Auflagerfläche 36 im Bereich der Teilfläche 38 erzeugt ist. Hierzu erfolgt bei dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel im Bereich der Teilfläche 38 eine Laserbeauf- schlagung der in Fräsbearbeitung hergestellten Auflagerfläche 36, derart, dass zur Ausbildung eines Linienrasters 39 mit in Y-Achsenrichtung verlaufenden Rasterlinien 40 durch die Laserbeaufschlagung längs parallel zueinander verlaufender Vorschubwege des Lasers zur Ausbildung von Rillen 41 ein Materialabtrag erfolgt. In order to ensure an engagement connection between the anvil 15 and the Ambossträger 1 7, which withstands the longitudinal forces caused by the longitudinal vibrations of the sonotrode 14, acting in the connecting plane 35 axial forces F, the support surface 21 is provided with a surface such that R z / R a = 4, that is, the average roughness R z is four times the average roughness R a . 4 shows an illustration of a support surface 36 of an anvil 37 having a part surface 38 formed therein, which has a line grid 39 which is produced by means of a laser application of the support surface 36 in the region of the part surface 38. For this purpose, in the illustrated exemplary embodiment, in the area of the subarea 38, a laser loading of the bearing surface 36 produced in milling machining takes place, such that the formation of a line screen 39 in the Y-axis direction extending raster lines 40 by the laser loading along parallel extending feed paths of the laser to form grooves 41 a material removal takes place.
Ein in X-Richtung durchgeführter Oberflächenscan hat im Bereich der Rillen 4 1 einen Mittenrauwert Ra = 6,3 μιη und im Bereich der Rasterlinien 40 eine gemittelte Rautiefe Rz = 25 μιη ergeben. A surface scan carried out in the X direction has a mean roughness R a = 6.3 μm in the region of the grooves 4 1 and an average roughness R z = 25 μm in the region of the raster lines 40.
