Description
この発明は、電力用半導体素子や電力密度の高い電極のヒートシンク、電力分野における大電流の接続片としての水冷導体などとして用いられる冷媒流通式の冷却体に関する。 The present invention relates to a refrigerant circulation type cooling body used as a power semiconductor element, a heat sink of an electrode having a high power density, a water-cooled conductor as a large current connection piece in the power field, and the like.
電力分野における大電流の接続片として用いられる水冷導体は、電気伝導性の優れた銅製であっても、その電気抵抗によって発熱するので、その温度上昇を抑えるために水冷されている。このような水冷導体としては、例えば、電力用変圧器内に使用される整流器のサイリスタやダイオードと保護ヒューズとをつなぐ接続片がある。 Even if the water-cooled conductor used as a large-current connection piece in the electric power field is made of copper having excellent electrical conductivity, it generates heat due to its electrical resistance, and is therefore water-cooled in order to suppress the temperature rise. Such water-cooled conductors include, for example, rectifier thyristors and diodes used in power transformers and connection pieces that connect a protective fuse.
一般的に広く使用されている冷却導体は、使用電流がそれほど大きくない場合には、アルミニウムまたはその合金が使用されることが多い。例えば、半導体分野などの場合である。一方、大電力の分野では、より優れた電気伝導性および熱伝導性を有する銅が主に使用されている。 In general, a cooling conductor that is widely used is made of aluminum or an alloy thereof when the current used is not so large. For example, in the semiconductor field. On the other hand, in the field of high power, copper having higher electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity is mainly used.
このような冷却体の内部は冷媒を流通させる流路構造となっているが、コストを安くするために、その構造および製造技術にはいろいろな工夫が凝らされているが、冷却体の構造としては、下部部材と上部部材とを重ね合わせて接合し、両部材間に冷媒の流路を形成するものが一般的であり、冷媒として水を用いるのが一般的である。 Although the inside of such a cooling body has a flow path structure for circulating a refrigerant, in order to reduce the cost, various ingenuity has been devised in its structure and manufacturing technology. In general, the lower member and the upper member are overlapped and joined to form a refrigerant flow path between the two members, and water is generally used as the refrigerant.
ここで、図を用いて従来技術による構造例を更に詳しく説明する。 Here, a structural example according to the prior art will be described in more detail with reference to the drawings.
図４は従来技術による冷却体の第1例（従来例１）の構造を示し、（a）はその外観を示す斜視図、（b）はその断面図、（ｃ）は下側部材１の平面図である。この冷却体は下側部材１と上側部材２と2つの給排水部3とで構成されている。金属平板からなる下側部材１には水路用凹部11が形成されており、その上面に金属平板からなる上部部材２がろう材４でろう付けされている。なお、水路用凹部11の両終端部には、給排水部3につながる給排水孔13が形成されている。このような構造は特許文献１に開示されている。この従来例１においては、上下両部材の接合方法として、ろう付け法が用いられているが、電子ビーム溶接法や熱間圧接法が用いられているものもある。
FIG. 4 shows the structure of a first example of a cooling body according to the prior art (conventional example 1), (a) is a perspective view showing the appearance thereof, (b) is a sectional view thereof, and (c) is a view of the lower member 1. It is a top view. The cooling body includes a lower member 1, an
図5は従来例２の構造を示し、（a）はその断面図、（b）は下側部材1aの断面図であり、図6は従来例３の構造を示す断面図である。いずれの場合においても、下側部材1aまたは１と上側部材2aまたは２の接合には、摩擦撹拌接合法が用いられている。従来例２の下側部材1aには、水路用凹部11aに加えて上側部材2aを嵌め込むための嵌込み用段差部12が形成され、ここに冷却水路30と同じ形状をした上側部材2aが嵌め込まれ、その外周部〔図5(ａ）において三角印をつけた位置〕で両部材が摩擦撹拌接合法で接合され、冷却水路30を形成している。従来例３では、下側部材１および上側部材２として第1例と同様の形状のものが用いられ、両者が冷却水路30の外縁部に沿った摩擦撹拌接合法で接合されて、冷却水路30を形成している。図6においても、摩擦撹拌接合位置を三角印で示している。このような構造は特許文献２に開示されている。
FIG. 5 shows the structure of Conventional Example 2, (a) is a sectional view thereof, (b) is a sectional view of lower member 1a, and FIG. 6 is a sectional view showing the structure of Conventional Example 3. In any case, the friction stir welding method is used for joining the lower member 1a or 1 and the
図７は従来例４の構造を示す断面図である。この冷却体は、上記3つの従来例と異なり、平板状の下側部材1bと、プレス加工によって形成された水路用凸部21を有する上側部材2bと、で構成されており、両部材が水路用凸部21の外縁部に沿った摩擦撹拌接合法で接合されて、冷却水路30を形成している。このような構造は特許文献３に開示されている。
上記の従来例には下記のような問題点がある。 The above conventional example has the following problems.
従来例１の場合には、その製造過程において、下側部材１および上側部材２が炉中で加熱されるので、それらが焼き鈍され軟らかくなって強度不足となり、内部にかかる水圧によって冷却水路30の変形や破損を生ずるという問題点がある。このため、部材の厚さを厚くしておくことが必要であり、熱による変形（熱歪）も問題点である。更に、下側部材１に形成される水路用凹部11はフライス切削加工などの機械加工となるので、その加工所要時間の低減には限界があり、コスト低減の観点からも問題となる。
In the case of the conventional example 1, since the lower member 1 and the
ろう付け法を電子ビーム溶接法に置き換えた場合には、低熱歪状態で接合できるが、材料が銅の場合には熱伝導率が極めて高いので、高出力の電子ビームが必要となり、その結果として局部的な歪が発生し、部分的な歪補正工程が必要となる、という問題点がある。更に、真空中の溶接作業となるため、加工コストが高くなることも問題点である。 When the brazing method is replaced with an electron beam welding method, bonding can be performed in a low thermal strain state, but when the material is copper, the thermal conductivity is extremely high, so a high output electron beam is required, and as a result There is a problem in that local distortion occurs and a partial distortion correction process is required. Furthermore, since the welding work is performed in a vacuum, the processing cost is also a problem.
ろう付けを熱間圧接に置き換えた場合には、量産時には低い製造コストを期待できるが、設備価格が極めて高いので、それに見合うだけの物量確保の見通しがないと設備投資できないという問題点がある。 When brazing is replaced with hot welding, low production costs can be expected during mass production, but the equipment price is extremely high, and there is a problem that capital investment cannot be made unless there is a prospect of securing a quantity sufficient for it.
従来例２の場合には、下側部材1aおよび上側部材2aが摩擦撹拌接合法で接合されるので、加熱や温度上昇に伴う問題点はないが、冷却水路30の形状に合わせた上側部材2aが必要であるから、冷却水路30の形状が複雑になるほどその加工コストが高くなるという問題点がある。また、下側部材1aには水路用凹部11aおよび嵌込み用段差部12を加工しなければならないので、コスト低減の観点において従来例１以上に問題が大きい。 In the case of Conventional Example 2, since the lower member 1a and the upper member 2a are joined by the friction stir welding method, there is no problem associated with heating or temperature rise, but the upper member 2a that matches the shape of the cooling water channel 30. Therefore, there is a problem that the processing cost increases as the shape of the cooling water channel 30 becomes more complicated. Further, since the water channel recess 11a and the fitting step 12 need to be processed in the lower member 1a, the problem is greater than that of the conventional example 1 in terms of cost reduction.
従来例３の場合には、従来例２と同様に加熱や温度上昇に伴う問題点はなく、従来例２のような複雑な形状の上側部材を必要としない。しかし、耐食性の維持などのために冷却体の表面に銀メッキなどを施す場合には、下側部材１と上側部材２の接合部の外側に存在する間隙にメッキ液が侵入して残留し、長い間には腐食を発生させるという心配がある。また、従来例１と同様に、下側部材１の加工に伴う加工所要時間の低減の限界という問題点がある。
In the case of Conventional Example 3, there are no problems associated with heating and temperature rise as in Conventional Example 2, and a complicatedly shaped upper member as in Conventional Example 2 is not required. However, when silver plating or the like is applied to the surface of the cooling body in order to maintain corrosion resistance, the plating solution enters and remains in the gap existing outside the joint between the lower member 1 and the
従来例４の場合には、下側部材1bは平板状であるから、前3つの従来例のような下側部材の加工に伴う問題点はなく、上側部材2bにはプレス加工で水路用凸部21が形成されるので、加工コストは安く抑えられる。しかし、下側部材1bと上側部材2bを水路用凸部21の外縁部に沿った摩擦撹拌接合法で接合しているので、従来例３と同様に、下側部材1bと上側部材2bの接合部の外側の間隙にメッキ液が侵入して残留し、長い間には腐食を発生させるという心配がある。 In the case of the conventional example 4, since the lower member 1b has a flat plate shape, there is no problem associated with the processing of the lower member as in the previous three conventional examples. Since the portion 21 is formed, the processing cost can be kept low. However, since the lower member 1b and the upper member 2b are joined by the friction stir welding method along the outer edge portion of the waterway convex portion 21, the lower member 1b and the upper member 2b are joined as in the conventional example 3. There is a concern that the plating solution penetrates into and remains in the gap outside the portion, and corrosion is generated for a long time.
この発明の課題は、上記のような従来技術の問題点を解消して、内部残留歪が少なく、加工工数が少なく、信頼性に優れた低価格で高品質の冷却体を提供することである。 An object of the present invention is to solve the problems of the prior art as described above, and to provide a low-cost and high-quality cooling body with low internal residual strain, a small number of processing steps, and excellent reliability. .
請求項１の発明は、熱伝導性に優れた金属平板からなる下側部材および上側部材が接合されて構成され、前記両部材によって冷媒を流通させる流路が形成されている冷却体であって、前記上側部材には流路となる凸状部がプレス加工で形成され、且つこの上側部材の外周形状が前記凸状部の形状より単純な形状とされ、前記下側部材には上側部材を嵌め込むための凹部が形成され、上側部材の外周部および前記凸状部の外縁部で下側部材と上側部材が摩擦撹拌接合法で接合されて、下側部材と上側部材の凸状部とで前記流路を形成している。 Invention of Claim 1 is the cooling body by which the lower member and upper member which consist of a metal flat plate excellent in heat conductivity were joined, and the flow path which distribute | circulates a refrigerant | coolant is formed by the said both members, The upper member is formed with a convex portion to be a flow path by pressing, and the outer peripheral shape of the upper member is simpler than the shape of the convex portion, and the lower member is provided with the upper member. A recess for fitting is formed, and the lower member and the upper member are joined by the friction stir welding method at the outer peripheral portion of the upper member and the outer edge of the convex portion, and the lower member and the convex portion of the upper member are The flow path is formed.
この発明においては、一つには、下側部材と上側部材が摩擦撹拌接合法で接合されるので、部材全体の温度が大きく上昇することはなく、且つ接合部の熱変形や残留応力も少なくなり、二つには、流路となる凸状部が上側部材にプレス加工で形成されるので、流路のための加工工数が極めて少なく、三つには、上側部材の外周形状が凸状部の形状より単純な形状とされるので、上側部材を嵌め込むために下側部材に形成される凹部の加工が簡単になり、四つには、下側部材と上側部材が上側部材の外周部および凸状部の外縁部で接合されるので、下側部材および上側部材の間にメッキ液などが侵入する間隙が形成されない。 In the present invention, for example, since the lower member and the upper member are joined by the friction stir welding method, the temperature of the entire member does not increase greatly, and the thermal deformation and residual stress of the joint are small. Second, because the convex part that becomes the flow path is formed on the upper member by pressing, the number of processing steps for the flow path is extremely small, and third, the outer peripheral shape of the upper member is convex Since the shape is simpler than the shape of the part, the processing of the recess formed in the lower member for fitting the upper member is simplified, and the lower member and the upper member are the outer periphery of the upper member. Since the bonding is performed at the outer edge portions of the portion and the convex portion, no gap for the plating solution or the like to enter between the lower member and the upper member is formed.
請求項２の発明は、請求項１に記載の冷却体の製造方法であって、前記の下側部材と上側部材を接合する摩擦撹拌接合のツールの経路を一筆書きの経路としている。
The invention of
摩擦撹拌接合のツールの経路を一筆書きの経路とすることによって、摩擦撹拌接合に要する時間が短縮される。 The time required for friction stir welding is shortened by making the path of the tool for friction stir welding a one-stroke path.
請求項３の発明は、請求項２の発明において、前記の一筆書きの経路として、経路の途中で摩擦撹拌接合の始点位置を少なくとも一度は通過させる経路をとる。 According to a third aspect of the present invention, in the second aspect of the present invention, the one-stroke path is a path through which the starting point position of the friction stir welding is passed at least once in the middle of the path.
経路の途中で摩擦撹拌接合の始点位置を少なくとも一度は通過させることによって、摩擦撹拌接合の始点位置で発生しやすい欠陥を消滅させることができる。 By passing the starting point position of the friction stir welding at least once in the course of the path, it is possible to eliminate defects that are likely to occur at the starting point position of the friction stir welding.
請求項１の発明においては、一つには、下側部材と上側部材が摩擦撹拌接合法で接合されるので、部材全体の温度が大きく上昇することはなく、且つ接合部の熱変形や残留応力も少なくなり、二つには、流路となる凸状部が上側部材にプレス加工で形成されるので、流路のための加工工数が極めて少なく、三つには、上側部材の外周形状が凸状部の形状より単純な形状とされるので、上側部材を嵌め込むために下側部材に形成される凹部の加工が簡単になり、四つには、下側部材と上側部材が上側部材の外周部および凸状部の外縁部で接合されるので、下側部材および上側部材の間にメッキ液などが侵入する間隙が形成されない。したがって、この発明によれば、内部残留歪が少なく、加工工数が少なく、信頼性に優れた低価格で高品質の冷却体を提供することができる。 In the first aspect of the present invention, for example, the lower member and the upper member are joined by the friction stir welding method, so that the temperature of the entire member does not increase greatly, and thermal deformation or residual of the joined portion does not occur. Stress is also reduced, and in two, the convex part that becomes the flow path is formed on the upper member by pressing, so the number of processing steps for the flow path is extremely small, and in three, the outer peripheral shape of the upper member Is simpler than the shape of the convex portion, so that the processing of the concave portion formed in the lower member for fitting the upper member is simplified, and the lower member and the upper member are Since the outer peripheral part of the member and the outer edge part of the convex part are joined, there is no gap between the lower member and the upper member in which a plating solution or the like enters. Therefore, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide a low-cost and high-quality cooling body with low internal residual strain, a small number of processing steps, and excellent reliability.
請求項２の発明においては、下側部材と上側部材を接合する摩擦撹拌接合のツールの経路を一筆書きの経路としているので、摩擦撹拌接合に要する時間が短縮され、加工工数がより少なくなる。
In the invention of
請求項３の発明においては、一筆書きの経路として、経路の途中で摩擦撹拌接合の始点位置を少なくとも一度は通過させる経路をとるので、摩擦撹拌接合の始点位置で発生しやすい欠陥を通過時に消滅させることができ、より優れた信頼性を有する冷却体を提供することができる。 In the invention of claim 3, since a path that allows the starting position of the friction stir welding to pass at least once in the middle of the path is taken as a one-stroke path, a defect that tends to occur at the starting position of the friction stir welding disappears when passing. It is possible to provide a cooling body having higher reliability.
この発明の最良の実施形態について、実施例を用いて説明する。 The best mode of the present invention will be described with reference to examples.
なお、従来技術と同じ機能の部分には同じ符号を付ける。 In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the part of the same function as a prior art.
図１は、この発明による冷却体の実施例の構造を示し、（a）はその断面図、（b）はその平面図であり、図２は、この実施例の部材を示し、（a）は下側部材1cの平面図、（b）は上側部材2cの平面図であり、図３は、この実施例の製造時の溶接経路を示した説明図である。 FIG. 1 shows the structure of an embodiment of a cooling body according to the present invention, (a) is a sectional view thereof, (b) is a plan view thereof, FIG. 2 shows members of this embodiment, (a) FIG. 3 is a plan view of the lower member 1c, FIG. 3B is a plan view of the upper member 2c, and FIG. 3 is an explanatory view showing a welding path during manufacture of this embodiment.
この実施例は、電力用の変圧器内に使用される整流器（サイリスタやダイオード）と保護ヒューズとをつなぐ接続片としての水冷導体であって、大電流が流されるため、電気伝導性および熱伝導性に優れた銅を材料としており、接続片の主導電部となる厚い平板状の下側部材1cと、それより薄い厚さの平板をプレス加工して冷媒（冷却水）の流路となる水路用凸部21が形成された上側部材2cと、２つの給排水部３と、で構成され、表面には耐食性を確保するための不図示の銀メッキが施されている。下側部材1cには、上側部材2cを嵌め込むための嵌込み用凹部12aと冷却水を流通させるための2つの給排水孔13とが形成されている。嵌込み用凹部12aの深さは上側部材2cの板厚と同じであり、この凹部12aに上側部材2cが嵌め合わされると、この凹部12aの上端と上側部材2cの外周線とが突合せ線となる。参考までに両部材の厚さの例を示すと、下側部材1c用平板の厚さは５mmで、上側部材２c用平板の厚さは1.5mmである。 This embodiment is a water-cooled conductor as a connecting piece that connects a rectifier (thyristor or diode) used in a power transformer and a protective fuse, and since a large current flows therethrough, electric conductivity and heat conduction. The material is made of copper with excellent properties, and the thick plate-like lower member 1c, which is the main conductive part of the connection piece, and a plate with a thinner thickness are pressed to form a coolant (cooling water) flow path. The upper member 2c on which the waterway convex portion 21 is formed and the two water supply / drainage portions 3 are formed, and the surface is subjected to silver plating (not shown) for ensuring corrosion resistance. The lower member 1c is formed with a fitting recess 12a for fitting the upper member 2c and two water supply / drain holes 13 for circulating cooling water. The depth of the recess 12a for insertion is the same as the plate thickness of the upper member 2c, and when the upper member 2c is fitted into the recess 12a, the upper end of the recess 12a and the outer peripheral line of the upper member 2c are the butt line. Become. For reference, an example of the thickness of both members is as follows. The thickness of the flat plate for the lower member 1c is 5 mm, and the thickness of the flat plate for the upper member 2c is 1.5 mm.
なお、下側部材1cに形成される嵌込み用凹部12aの形状は、その加工工数の低減という観点から、できるだけ単純な形であることが望ましいので、ここに嵌め込まれる上側部材2cの外周形状は水路用凸部21の形状に比べてより単純な形とされる。この実施例では、水路用凸部21の形状がU字形であるのに対して、上側部材2cの外周形状はコーナー部を丸くした矩形としている。水路用凸部21の形状がより複雑になっても、上側部材2cの外周形状は同様に単純な形状とされる。このことによって、下側部材1cおよび上側部材2cの加工工数が従来技術に比べて大幅に削減される。 Note that the shape of the fitting recess 12a formed in the lower member 1c is preferably as simple as possible from the viewpoint of reducing the number of processing steps, so the outer peripheral shape of the upper member 2c fitted here is The shape is simpler than the shape of the waterway convex portion 21. In this embodiment, the shape of the waterway convex portion 21 is U-shaped, whereas the outer peripheral shape of the upper member 2c is a rectangle with rounded corner portions. Even if the shape of the waterway convex portion 21 becomes more complicated, the outer peripheral shape of the upper member 2c is similarly simple. As a result, the processing man-hours of the lower member 1c and the upper member 2c are significantly reduced as compared with the prior art.
下側部材1cと上側部材2cは摩擦撹拌接合法で接合され、上側部材2cの水路用凸部21と下側部材1cとで冷却水路30が形成される。この接合が実行される部分は、上側部材2cの水路用凸部21の内側の外縁部と前述の突合せ線部であって、この接合部分の全長にわたって摩擦撹拌接合のツールを移動させることによって、下側部材1cと上側部材2cが接合され、冷却水路30が形成される。上側部材2cと下側部材1cは、水路用凸部21の内側の外縁部では重ね合わせ接合で接合され、突合せ線部では突合せ接合で接合される。摩擦撹拌接合は、例えば図3に丸付き数字で示した番号順にツールを移動させることで実行される。更に詳しく説明すると、接合の開始位置である1)でツールを差し込んでここから接合を開始し、水路用凸部21の内側の外縁部に沿って2)、3)とツールを移動させて接合を進め、突合せ線部に出て、突合せ線に沿って4)、5)、6)とツールを移動させて接合を進め、7)前後では突合せ線部を再び通過させた後、水路用凸部21の内側の外縁部にツールを移動させて接合を進め、開始位置1)を再度通過させてから終了位置8)までツールを移動させて接合を終了する。このように、摩擦撹拌接合の経路は一筆書きの経路とし、接合の継ぎ箇所がないようにしている。 The lower member 1c and the upper member 2c are joined by the friction stir welding method, and the cooling water channel 30 is formed by the water channel convex portion 21 of the upper member 2c and the lower member 1c. The portion where this joining is performed is the outer edge portion of the waterway convex portion 21 of the upper member 2c and the aforementioned butt line portion, and by moving the friction stir welding tool over the entire length of this joining portion, The lower member 1c and the upper member 2c are joined to form the cooling water channel 30. The upper member 2c and the lower member 1c are joined by overlapping joining at the inner edge of the waterway convex portion 21, and joined by butt joining at the butt line portion. For example, the friction stir welding is performed by moving the tools in the order of numbers indicated by circled numbers in FIG. More specifically, the tool is inserted at the joining start position 1), and joining is started from here, and the tool is moved along the outer edge of the waterway convex portion 21 and moved 2) and 3). , Go out to the butt line, move the tool 4), 5), 6) and the tool along the butt line to advance the joint, 7) before and after passing the butt line part again, The tool is moved to the outer edge part inside the portion 21 to advance the joining, and the tool is moved from the start position 1) to the end position 8) again to finish the joining. In this way, the friction stir welding path is a one-stroke path so that there are no joint joints.
開始位置1)を接合の途中で再度通過させているのは、以下の理由による。すなわち、ツールが差し込まれる開始位置1)およびツールが抜き上げられる終了位置8)には欠陥が発生しやすいのに対して、連続的に接合されている途中の位置には欠陥が発生しない、ということが実験的に確認されているからである。 The reason why the starting position 1) is passed again during the joining is as follows. That is, defects are likely to occur at the start position 1) where the tool is inserted and the end position 8) where the tool is pulled up, whereas no defect occurs at a position where the tool is continuously joined. This is because it has been confirmed experimentally.
また、欠陥が発生しやすい終了位置8)は、欠陥が発生しても問題とならない位置や後加工で除去される位置に設定される。この実施例においては、終了位置8)は水路用凸部21から離れた中央部に設定されていて、この箇所には後工程で固定用のねじ孔があけられるので、ツール穴が残ることはない。 In addition, the end position 8) at which defects are likely to occur is set to a position where no problems occur even if defects occur or to be removed by post-processing. In this embodiment, the end position 8) is set at the center part away from the waterway convex part 21, and a screw hole for fixing is made in this part at a later step, so that a tool hole remains. Absent.
摩擦撹拌接合の経路を一筆書きとして１回のツールの走査で全ての接合を完了させ、且つ開始位置には再度ツールを通過させるので、接合に要する時間が短く、冷却水路30の外周に欠陥を発生させる可能性は極めて低い。参考までにツールの移動速度の例を示すと、分速500mmである。 With the friction stir welding path as a single stroke, all the welding is completed with a single tool scan, and the tool is passed again to the starting position, so the time required for welding is short, and there is a defect on the outer periphery of the cooling water channel 30. The possibility of generating is extremely low. For reference, an example of the moving speed of the tool is 500 mm / min.
摩擦撹拌接合法による接合では、接合部の温度は接合対象部材の融点以下であり、加熱されるのはツールに接触している部分とその近傍に限られるので、接合対象部材全体が焼き鈍しされるほど加熱されることがなく、問題になるような熱変形や残留歪を生ずることもない。 In the joining by the friction stir welding method, the temperature of the joining portion is equal to or lower than the melting point of the joining target member, and heating is limited to the portion in contact with the tool and its vicinity, so the entire joining target member is annealed. It is not heated so much, and there is no problem of thermal deformation or residual strain.
また、上記実施例においては、上側部材2cと下側部材1cが上側部材2cの外周部の突合せ線部で突合せ接合されるので、上側部材2cと下側部材1cの間にメッキ液などが侵入して残留する間隙をつくることはなく、その結果として、腐食などの心配がなくなり、信頼性の高い優れた品質の水冷導体を得ることができる。 In the above embodiment, since the upper member 2c and the lower member 1c are butt-joined at the butt line portion of the outer peripheral portion of the upper member 2c, a plating solution or the like enters between the upper member 2c and the lower member 1c. As a result, there is no fear of corrosion and the like, and a highly reliable water-cooled conductor with excellent quality can be obtained.
上記の実施例は材料として銅を用いた水冷導体であるが、上記で説明した構造および製造方法は、水冷導体に限定されるものではなく、水冷導体以外の冷却体においても同様に有効である。また、この発明で使用可能な材料は、銅に限定されるものではなく、銅合金やアルミ、アルミ合金などの冷却体に必要な物性を備え且つ摩擦撹拌接合の可能な材料である。 Although the above embodiment is a water-cooled conductor using copper as a material, the structure and the manufacturing method described above are not limited to the water-cooled conductor, and are similarly effective in a cooling body other than the water-cooled conductor. . The material that can be used in the present invention is not limited to copper, but is a material having physical properties necessary for a cooling body such as copper alloy, aluminum, and aluminum alloy and capable of friction stir welding.
