Patent GB-1071245-A (GB)
Title: Friction welding
IPC: B23K20/12
Filed: 1964-08-28
Abstract: 1,071,245. Welding by pressure. AMERICAN MACHINE & FOUNDRY CO. Aug. 28, 1964 [Aug. 28, 1963], No. 35320/64. Heading B3R. In friction welding two workpieces the workpieces are relatively rotated, kinetic energy is developed in a rotating mass, the workpieces are forced together so that the friction between them absorbs kinetic energy from the rotating mass, a predetermined speed of the mass is detected when all the necessary energy from the mass has been transferred to the workpieces and the supply of energy from the mass is discontinued at that speed, the speed of the mass being subsequently increased for making the next weld. In an embodiment the apparatus has a stationary chuck 14, Fig. 1, mounted on a horizontally slidable vertical end member 13 and a rotating chuck 16 mounted in a fixed end member 12. A pair of cylinders 17, 18 are provided to draw the member 13 towards the member 12. The chuck 16 is mounted on a shaft 15 driven by a motor 20 through pulleys and a belt and rotatably mounted on the shaft 15 is a sleeve shaft 26 carrying inertia weights 27, a drum 30 fixed to the sleeve 26 co-operating with centrifugal clutch elements 32. In operation the workpieces are secured in the chucks and the motor is started, thus rotating the shaft 15 and the clutch elements 32. As the speed increases the clutch elements 32 engage the drum 30 and the inertia weights are rotated, the cylinders 17, 18 are actuated to force the workpieces together when the inertia weights deliver energy to the weld area and as the workpieces slow down the centrifugal clutch 32 disengages from the inertia weights and the workpieces come rapidly to rest. If the motor 20 is electric the clutch 24 is opened during welding but if an air motor is used no clutch need be used. In another embodiment the chucks are mounted in members as before but the shaft (40), Fig. 3 (not shown) on which the chuck (16) is mounted is driven by a belt (46) rotated by a shaft (42) carrying inertia weights (44) and driven by a motor (41). A clutch (47) is arranged in the shaft (40) and may be controlled by an element (51). In operation with the workpieces in the chucks the motor rotates the inertia weights and at a predetermined speed the clutch (47) is operated so that the chuck (16) is also rotated. The cylinders (17), (18) are operated, kinetic energy is delivered to the weld area and when the speed slows sufficiently the clutch (47) is disengaged. The partially made weld rapidly stops the relative rotation of the chucks without employing braking.
