The invention relates to a secondary self-propagating
welding method for a
cathode soft belt and a large
bus for an
aluminum electrolysis cell. The method includes first taking down a waste
cathode soft belt,
welding an aluminum plate at one end of a new soft belt beam,
welding a steel aluminum explosion block at the other end,
coating aluminum welding flux on the groove face, arranging a
crucible above a welding seam, arranging a self-fluxing
plug in the
crucible, preheating a
bus material and the
crucible, arranging welding
powder into the welding seam and the crucible, evenly scattering pyrophoric
powder on the surface of welding
powder at the two positions, igniting the pyrophoric powder in the welding seam, erecting the crucible above the welding seam quickly after the welding powder finishes reaction and igniting the pyrophoric powder in the crucible at the moment to enable the welding powder in the crucible to react. When a
metal solution enters the welding seam, welding of the aluminum plate at the end of the soft belt and the
bus can be finished, and the steel aluminum explosion block at the other end of the soft belt is connected with a steel rod on a groove casing through
arc welding. A workpiece with different sections has good
conductivity and strength when the workpiece is welded through the method.
