Definitions
- the present invention relates to a laser welding method for resin materials.
- FIG. 5A, 5B and 5C show the laser welding method of Conventional Example 1.
- FIG. 5A a transparent resin material 501 having a substantially rectangular cross section and an absorbent resin material 502 having a substantially rectangular cross section are overlapped, and a pressure is applied so that both resin materials abut with a pressing jig (not shown).
- the laser beam 503 is irradiated from the transparent resin material 501 side.
- the laser light 503 passes through the transmissive resin material 501 with almost no absorption, and is absorbed near the surface of the absorbent resin material 502.
- the energy of the absorbed laser beam 503 is converted into heat, and the surface of the absorbent resin material 502 is heated.
- the joining surface of the absorbent resin material 502 and the joining surface of the permeable resin material 501 are melted to form a molten resin material 504.
- the molten resin material 504 is cooled and solidified, and the both resin materials are welded to each other.
- a case body 602 formed of an absorbent resin and a lid formed of a transparent resin 601 can be welded and sealed.
- the laser beam 503 is irradiated.
- the resin material is heated, the air in the space is also heated and expands, and rupture occurs.
- this rupture causes the molten resin material 504 to scatter along the joint surfaces of the two resin materials and to be cooled and solidified in a non-uniform state. Arise.
- the appearance of the molten resin material 504 is spoiled or outflowed, and the appearance of the molten resin material 504 is impaired by protruding from the resin material body.
- Conventional example 2 is provided with protrusions on the bonding surface of the absorbent resin material. Then, the protrusions are overlapped so as to come into contact with the joint surface of the transmissive resin material, and the projection is irradiated with laser light from the transmissive resin material side in a state where the joint surfaces of the both resin materials are pressed in the approaching direction. Then, as the protrusions are gradually melted, the distance between the joint surfaces of both resin materials is shortened, and air is gradually discharged. Therefore, the air between the joint surfaces of both resin materials does not expand and burst, and the molten resin material is cooled and solidified in a uniform state, so that the welded state is stabilized.
- an object of the present invention is to provide a laser welding method for a resin material in which the welding state is stabilized and the welding strength is improved by gradually discharging the air between the joining surfaces during laser light irradiation. is there.
- an absorptive resin material that absorbs laser light and a transparent resin material that transmits laser light are superposed and pressed, and laser is applied to the joint surface from the transparent resin material side.
- the absorbent resin material is melted and both resin materials are welded.

Abstract

Description
本発明は、樹脂材のレーザー溶着方法に関するものである。
従来、レーザー光を吸収する吸収性樹脂材と、レーザー光を透過させる透過性樹脂材とを重ね合わせて加圧し、両樹脂材の接合面に透過性樹脂材側からレーザー光を照射することで、両樹脂材を溶着する樹脂材のレーザー溶着方法が提案されている。
以下に、従来例1の樹脂材のレーザー溶着方法を説明する。
図5A、5B及び5Cに、従来例1のレーザー溶着方法を示す。図5Aにおいて、断面が略矩形状の透過性樹脂材501と、断面が略矩形状の吸収性樹脂材502とを重ね合わせ、押さえ冶具(図示無し)で両樹脂材が当接するように加圧力P51を加えた状態で、透過性樹脂材501側からレーザー光503を照射する。レーザー光503は透過性樹脂材501ではほとんど吸収されずに透過して、吸収性樹脂材502の表面付近で吸収される。吸収されたレーザー光503のエネルギーは熱に変換され、吸収性樹脂材502の表面が加熱される。
その結果、図5Bに示すように、吸収性樹脂材502の接合面と、透過性樹脂材501の接合面とが溶融されて、溶融樹脂材504が形成される。そして、レーザー光503の照射を停止すると、溶融樹脂材504が冷却して固化し、両樹脂材が互いに溶着される。
また、図6に示すように、レーザー光603を照射して走査することで、例えば矩形箱状のケース600における、吸収性樹脂で形成されたケース本体602と、透過性樹脂で形成された蓋601とを溶着して密封することができる。
しかし、透過性樹脂材501の接合面、または吸収性樹脂材502の接合面に反り等が生じて、両樹脂材の接合面の間に、空間が生じていた場合、レーザー光503を照射して樹脂材を加熱すると、空間の空気も加熱されて膨張し、破裂が発生する。図5Cに示すように、この破裂によって、溶融樹脂材504が、両樹脂材の接合面に沿って飛散し、不均一な状態で冷却固化されるので、溶着状態が不安定となり、リーク不良が生じる。また、溶融樹脂材504の飛散または流出により、樹脂材本体からはみ出すことで外観を損ねることとなる。
そこで、吸収性樹脂材の接合面に突起を設けることによって、レーザー光照射時に両樹脂材の接合面の間の空気を徐々に排出するレーザー溶着方法を従来例2として、以下に説明する(例えば日本国特許公開2005-288934号公報を参照)。
従来例2は、吸収性樹脂材の接合面に、突起が設けられている。そして、突起が透過性樹脂材の接合面に当接するように重ね合わせ、両樹脂材の接合面が近付く方向に加圧された状態で、透過性樹脂材側から突起にレーザー光を照射する。すると、突起が徐々に溶融されることによって、両樹脂材の接合面の間の距離が短くなり空気が徐々に排出されていく。したがって、両樹脂材の接合面の間の空気が膨張して破裂することはなく、溶融樹脂材が均一な状態で冷却固化されるので、溶着状態が安定する。
しかしながら、従来例2の樹脂材のレーザー溶着方法は、吸収性樹脂材の接合面に設けられた突起を全て溶融させて、両樹脂材を互いに溶着している。したがって、従来例1、2の溶着面は、平面に形成されていた。しかしながら、近年では溶着強度がより向上した樹脂材のレーザー溶着方法が求められていた。
そこで、本発明の目的は、レーザー光の照射時に接合面の間の空気を徐々に排出することで、溶着状態を安定させると共に、溶着強度が向上した樹脂材のレーザー溶着方法を提供することにある。
本発明の樹脂材のレーザー溶着方法は、レーザー光を吸収する吸収性樹脂材と、レーザー光を透過させる透過性樹脂材とを重ね合わせて加圧し、その接合面に透過性樹脂材側からレーザー光を照射して走査することで、吸収性樹脂材を溶融させて、両樹脂材を溶着する。本発明の第1の特徴において、透過性樹脂材の接合面に突起を設け、当該突起が吸収性樹脂材の接合面に当接するように加圧した状態で、レーザー光を照射して走査する。この発明では、透過性樹脂材の接合面に設けた突起を、溶融された吸収性樹脂材に徐々に沈み込ませていくことによって、接合面の間の空気を徐々に排出することで溶着状態を安定させることができると共に、突起の表面と吸収性樹脂材の間においても溶着部が形成されるため、溶着面積が増加し溶着強度を向上させることができる。
一実施形態において、前記突起の断面形状が、多角形である。この発明では、突起の断面形状を多角形にすることで、さらに溶着面積が増加し、溶着強度を増加させることができる。
一実施形態において、前記突起の先端は、少なくとも角部が曲率形状である。この発明では、突起の先端の角部を曲率形状にすることで、突起の先端の角部にかかる応力を分散させることができるので、突起の強度を向上させることができる。
一実施形態において、前記突起は、複数の突起である。この発明では、複数の突起を設けることによって、さらに溶着面積が増加し、溶着強度を増加させることができる。
本発明の好ましい実施形態をさらに詳細に記述する。本発明の他の特徴および利点は、以下の詳細な記述および添付図面に関連して一層良く理解されるものである。

以下、本発明の実施の形態を図面に基づいて説明する。
(実施形態1)
図1A~1Cに、本発明の第1の実施形態の樹脂材のレーザー溶着方法を示す。
図1A~1Cに、本発明の第1の実施形態の樹脂材のレーザー溶着方法を示す。
図1Aに、レーザー光103を照射する前の樹脂材の状態を示す。以下、図1Aに対する上下左右方向を基準とする。
本実施形態の透過性樹脂材101は、断面が略矩形状に形成された透過性樹脂材本体101aの下面に、断面が三角形に形成された突起101bが設けられている。突起101bの左右の側面は、下方に向かうにつれて内側に向かう斜面で形成されている。また、吸収性樹脂材102は、断面が略矩形状に形成されている。
そして、突起101bの先端が、吸収性樹脂材102の上面と当接するように、押さえ冶具(図示なし)によって、加圧力P11が加えられている。また、突起101bが設けられていることによって、透過性樹脂材本体101aの下面と吸収性樹脂材102の上面とで構成される、両樹脂材の接合面の間には、空間104が形成されている。
ここで、透過性樹脂材101は、熱可塑性を有し、レーザー光に対して所定の透過率(例えば、15%以上)を有するものであれば特に限定されない。そして、例えばポリアミド(PA)、ポリエチレン(PE)、ポリプロプレン(PP)、ポリカーボネート(PC)、ポリオキシメチレン(POM)、アクリロニトリル-ブタジエン-スチレン(ABS)、ポリブチレンテレフタレート(PBT)、ポリフェニレンスルフィド(PPS)、アクリル(PMME)等の樹脂材が用いられる。このような樹脂材の塗料についてはレーザー光を透過させるため特に制約されないが、顔料についてはレーザー光の透過率を大きく低下させるため制約される。
また、吸収性樹脂材102は、熱可塑性を有し、レーザー光を透過せずに吸収し得るものであれば特に限定されない。例えば、透過性樹脂材101の例で述べた樹脂材に塗料や顔料等の着色材を混入したものが用いられる。つまり、顔料を混入することで樹脂材の光吸収性が高くなり、さらに発熱量も高くなる。従って、吸収性樹脂材102は一般的に透過性樹脂材101よりも溶融され易い。
図1Bは、レーザー光103が照射され、溶着中の図である。透過性樹脂材101の上方から、下方に向かって加圧力P11が加えられた状態で、透過性樹脂材本体101aの上面から、突起101bを介して、吸収性樹脂材102の上面にレーザー光103が照射される。それによって、吸収性樹脂材102は溶融される。そして、加圧力P11が加えられているため、突起101bは溶融された吸収性樹脂材102の上面に徐々に沈み込んでいく。また、突起101bが溶融された吸収性樹脂材102に徐々に沈み込んでいくことによって、両樹脂材の接合面の間の空間104が徐々に小さくなる共に、図1Bの矢印で示すように、左右方向へ空気が徐々に排出されていく。
図1Cに、溶着後の図を示す。加圧力P11を加えた状態でレーザー光103を照射し、突起101b全体を吸収性樹脂材102に沈み込ませることで、透過性樹脂材本体101aの下面と吸収性樹脂材102の上面が当接し、空間104はなくなる。したがって、突起101bが徐々に沈み込むことで、両樹脂材の接合面の間の空気は徐々に排出されるため、透過性樹脂材本体101aの下面と吸収性樹脂材102の上面との間には空気が残っておらず、従来のように膨張した空気が破裂して、溶融した樹脂材が飛散することはなく、溶着状態を安定させることができる。
また、突起101bが溶融された吸収性樹脂材102に沈み込むことによって、吸収性樹脂材102の溶融された樹脂材が、突起101bの表面に沿って吸収性樹脂材102の上面に流出する。それによって、透過性樹脂材本体101aの下面と吸収性樹脂材102の上面との間に形成された溶着部105aと、突起101bの表面と吸収性樹脂材102の斜面との間に形成された溶着部105bとで構成される溶着部105が形成される。そして、両樹脂材が互いに溶着される。
すなわち、従来の吸収性樹脂材側に設けられてほとんど溶融してしまう突起と異なり、透過性樹脂材101側に設けられた突起101bは、部分的に溶融しながらも吸収性樹脂材102に沈み込む。
したがって、従来のように両樹脂材の溶着面が平面に形成されている場合と比べて、突起101bの表面と吸収性樹脂材102の斜面との間に形成された溶着部105bが、溶着部105の一部を構成しているので、溶着面積が増加する。そして、溶着面積が増加することによって、溶着強度が向上する。
上記のように、透過性樹脂材本体101aの下面に突起101bを設けることによって、両樹脂材の接合面の間の空気が徐々に排出されることで溶着状態が安定し、突起101bの表面に溶着部105bが形成されることで溶着面積が増加して溶着強度が向上する。
また、突起101bの先端の角度θを、θ=45°±15°の範囲内とし、さらに透過性樹脂材本体101aの下面から突起101bの下端までの高さH1を、H1=5mm以下とすることで、上記効果を十分に確保することができる。
また、透過性樹脂材本体101aの下面に、複数の突起101bを設けることによって、溶着面積をさらに増加させることができ、溶着強度をさらに向上させることができる。

実施形態1と同様に、突起201bの下面と吸収性樹脂材202の上面とが当接するように加圧力を加えた状態で、透過性樹脂材本体201aの上面から突起201bを介して、吸収性樹脂材202の上面にレーザー光を照射することによって、突起201bは溶融された吸収性樹脂材202に沈み込む。
そして、突起201b全体が吸収性樹脂材202に沈み込むことによって、両樹脂材の接合面の間の空気が排出され、膨張した空気が破裂して溶融した樹脂材が飛散することはなく、溶着状態を安定させることができる。
また、突起201bの断面形状を台形とすることで、断面形状が三角形の場合よりも表面積が大きいため、突起201bを吸収性樹脂材202に沈み込ませたとき、溶着面積が増加し、溶着強度をより向上させることができる。
また、台形状の突起201bの上辺の左右方向の長さをA1、突起201bの下辺の左右方向の長さをB1とし、長さA1、B1の比を、A1:B1=1:1~100:1の範囲内とすることで、上記効果を十分に確保することができる。

そして、突起301b全体が吸収性樹脂材302に沈み込むことによって、両樹脂材の接合面の間の空気が排出され、膨張した空気が破裂して溶融した樹脂材が飛散することはなく、溶着状態を安定させることができる。
また、突起301bの角部301cを曲率形状に形成することによって、角部301cにかかる応力を分散させることができるので、突起301bの強度を向上させることができる。
また、突起301bの下面の角部の曲率Rを、R=0.1~50の範囲内とすることで、上記効果を十分に確保することができる。
