Problems solved by technology

In addition, the encapsulation of heat dissipation chambers in electronic devices usually adopts epoxy resin bonding, resistance welding or electron beam welding. Application of the above-mentioned welding method in the package of heat dissipation cavity of electronic device
[0003] Traditional ultrasonic welding of metals mainly improves joint reliability and achieves good connections by adjusting input energy, amplitude, time, and ultrasonic power. However, when the thickness of the conductive layer to be welded exceeds the weldable limit of ultrasonic equipment, adjusting the process window to improve welding quality will No longer effective, and the surface damage caused by excessive energy input is not conducive to the application of ultrasonic metal welding methods in small thermally sealed cavities
At present, relevant research has pointed out that the method of intermediate layer can be used to increase the metallurgical speed and strengthen the weld. For example, D.L. Chen's team used Zn intermediate layer to improve the strength of Al-Cu joints, but this method is not suitable for reducing welding input energy, which limits its use. Prospects for future applications

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of welding, and in particular relates to a method for nanoparticle-driven low-energy ultrasonic metal welding. Background technique [0002] In recent years, as the pressure of resource supply and environmental pollution continues to increase, the use of fossil fuels such as gasoline and diesel has been reduced, and the gradual use of lithium-ion batteries as power energy has become the main development direction of the future automotive field. The manufacture of lithium batteries for vehicles includes processes such as pulping, coating, welding, assembly and chemical formation, in which the connection of the pole pieces and the packaging of the battery need to be welded. At the same time, the increase in the capacity and power requirements of lithium batteries will also bring about a surge in the number of series-parallel battery modules. On the premise of ensuring the reliability of the joints, reducing th...
