  • Patent number: 11890701
    Abstract: A resistance spot welding electrode cap contains a groove at the center of the welding contact interface. During welding, because of the groove, the area of contact between the electrode cap and a metal workpiece to be soldered is reduced. In the initial stage, the overall heat generation is concentrated on the outer ring of the weld point and heat dissipation becomes slower, helping a weld nugget to form from the outside to the inside. Due to the presence of the groove, the metal workpiece expands toward the groove at the center of the electrode, thereby increasing the size of the weld nugget and reducing splash and deformation. In comparison with conventional electrode caps, the welding current required to form weld points of the same size is lower, saving on electricity costs, and weld points obtained using the same current have higher strength and stability with fewer welding defects.

  • Patent number: 11597035
    Abstract: Laser ablation processing method for debris-free and efficient removal of materials comprises the step of using a refrigeration device to condense the water vapor and form a thin frost layer on the materials at temperatures below the freezing point. The residual debris produced during the ablation process deposits on the frost layer that covers the material, which is easily removed when the frost layer melts. At the same time, the frost layer in the laser irradiation area melts to a liquid layer, which can effectively reduce the deposition of debris on the inner wall of the groove and thus improve the efficiency and quality of laser ablation. The method is applicable to debris-free laser processing on an arbitrary curved surface.
