Abstract

The invention relates to a method for producing a peripherally closed hollow profiled element by means of internal high-pressure forming. According to said method, a hollow longitudinal blank (5) is inserted into an internal high-pressure form tool (1) and, during the closing process of the form tool (1), the blank (5) which is fully inserted thereinto is compressed in a region between the two ends (9,10) thereof, whereafter the compressed blank (5) is enlarged into the end shape of the hollow profiled element by means of fluidic internal high pressure. The aim of the invention is to enable a reliable production of the hollow profiled element even in the event of large deformation of the hollow profiled blank (5) resulting during the closing of the form tool (1). To this end, the ends (9,10) of the blank (5) are cut before the compression process, respectively forming a bevelled front surface (12,13), and the cut contour of the ends (9,10) and the bevelling angle (.alpha.) are selected in such a way that the ends (9,10) are deformed by means of the compression process such that the front surfaces (12,13) thereof have an essentially plane form and assume a position that is as perpendicular as possible to the longitudinal extension of the blank (5).

Claims (7)

claims
1. A method for producing a peripherally closed hollow profiled element by means of internal high-pressure forming, a hollow elongated blank being inserted into an internal high-pressure forming tool, the blank located completely inside the forming tool after the insertion being compressed in a region lying between its ends during the closing operation of the forming tool, after which the compressed blank is expanded into the final shape of the hollow profiled element by means of fluidic internal high pressure, characterized in that the ends (9, 10) of the blank (5) are trimmed before the compression operation, with a respective beveled front face (12, 13) being formed, and in that the trimming contour of the ends (9, 10) and the beveling angle (.alpha.) are selected in such a way that the ends (9, 10) are deformed by means of the compression operation in such a way that their front faces (12, 13) have an essentially plane form and assume a position which is as perpendicular as possible to the longitudinal extent of the blank (5).
2. The method as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that the trimming is effected in such a way that the front faces (12, 13) of the ends (9, 10) are beveled relative to the center axis (18) lying in the compression direction and running transversely to the longitudinal axis (11) of the blank (5).
3. The method as claimed in either of claims 1 and 2, characterized in that the blank ends (9, 10) are trimmed in such a way that their front faces (12, 13) remain arranged parallel to one another.
4. The method as claimed in one of claims 1 to 3, characterized in that the beveling angle (.alpha.) lies within a range of between 6° and 10°, preferably 8°.
5. The method as claimed in one of claims 1 to 4, characterized in that the end deformation occurring due to the subsequent compression operation is determined by a computer simulation before the trimming of the ends (9, 10) and then a trimming contour and a beveling angle (.alpha.) of the trimming to be affected is calculated therefrom for compensating for the deformation.
6. The method as claimed in one of claims 1 to 5, characterized in that the trimming of the ends (9, 10) is effected two-dimensionally.
7. The method as claimed in one of claims 1 to 5, characterized in that the trimming of the ends (9, 10) is effected by a three-dimensional contour cut.
