Description

Tube bend processing device and tube bend processing method
Technical field
The present invention relates to tube bend processing device and tube bend processing method by the crooked pipe of plastic working.
Background technology
The duct member that carries out minimum bending machining (for example, bending radius is that 1.5D is following) commonly used in automobile, air conditioner etc.As being used for tube bending is the bender of definite shape, is extensive use of Fig. 9 and rotation stretch bending processing unit (plant) shown in Figure 10.Figure 10 is the b-b cutaway view of Fig. 9.
Rotation stretch bending processing unit (plant) comprises: form the curved guide groove rotatable bending die 91, with the part of pipe p be fixed on anchor clamps 92 on the bending die 91, keep the curved outer circumferential surface of pipe p pressing mold 93, keep pipe p inner peripheral surface wiper die (wiper) 94, remain on pipe p the inboard plug 95 and from the rear end of pipe p on direction of principal axis to the pipe booster 96 of the pipe p application of force.
Pressing mold 93 can be held device 97 with moving freely and support on the direction of principal axis of pipe p, clamper 97 can be regulated the radial direction position of bending die 91 by position adjustments screw 97a simultaneously.Usually, in the man-hour that adds of pipe p, the position of pressing mold 93 is fixing mostly.
For bending machining pipe p, can be fixed on the bending die 91 with the part of anchor clamps 92 pipe p, by position adjustments screw 97a pressing mold 93 is moved on the desirable position simultaneously, clamp pipe p with bending die 91, wiper die 94, plug 95 and pressing mold 93, make bending die 91 rotation, thereby be the shape of copying the groove shape of bending die 91 pipe p bending machining.In addition, can pass through pipe booster 96 application of forces from the rear end of pipe p as required.
In above-mentioned pipe p bender, as shown in figure 11, with crooked how much neutral axis of pipe p as the center, inside and outside bending, the flexure operation difference of pipe.Just, because the path length of the relative neutral axis of curved outside is longer, so after direction of principal axis stretch bending processing, wall thickness is compared attenuation with original wall thickness t.The path length of the relative neutral axis of curved interior shortens, so shrink at direction of principal axis, the wall thickness after the bending machining is compared thickening with original wall thickness t.
Therefore, curved outside can crack, and crooked inboard is easy to generate buckles.In addition, as shown in figure 12, the section after the bending machining produces ovalization.In the past,,, have in pipe p inboard under the state of plug 95 and carry out bending machining as Fig. 9 and shown in Figure 10 in order to prevent buckling and preventing the ovalization of pipe p of curved interior.Just, clamping under the state of pipe p, the tube wall of the curved interior of pipe p is being carried out bending machining, can prevent from thus to buckle with bending die 91, wiper die 94 and plug 95.
But,,, have the shortcoming of easier breakage so can impel subtracting of curved outside thick owing to the tube wall of curved outside can be subjected to the attenuate deep-drawing deformation that produces because of plug 95.
The method of the crackle when suppressing this bending machining, problem such as buckle, in prior art, for example patent documentation 1, following technology has been proposed: the rate of bending detector of bending die 91 and the pushing speed detector of pipe booster 96 are installed in the circumgyration stretch bender, according to signal from rate of bending detector and extrusion speed detector, acceleration and deceleration control rate of bending and pushing speed make rate of bending pattern and the similar Synchronization Control of pushing velocity mode thereby adopt.
In addition, in prior art, for example patent documentation 2, following tube bend processing method is also disclosed: relative pipe, it is roughly the same that the periphery of pressing mold 93 sides is remained and manage radius, the periphery of bending die 91 sides is deformed into than the bigger radius of pipe radius, and, the whole girth of pipe is dwindled several percentages.
Patent documentation 1: specially permit communique No. 2544001
Patent documentation 2: the spy opens clear 55-5180 communique
Summary of the invention
Yet, even adopt these technology, because the plug of buckling 95 that is used to prevent the flattening of pipe p and prevent curved interior makes above-mentioned pipe p inner face have the attenuate deep-drawing deformation, thereby it is thick to exempt subtracting of curved outside, and, remove plug 95 in order to prevent the subtracting thick of attenuate deep-drawing deformation generation, carry out minimum bending machining (1.5DR is following), exist curved interior to produce the shortcoming of buckling.
In addition, the duct member that uses in present automobile component tends to be extensive use of the parts of hydroforming pipe processing.Usually, hydroforming is to carry out behind the preform of bending machining, and is to make parts after the hydroforming in the perimeter change of the each several part of length direction mostly.
This pipe preform that is used for hydroforming obviously subtracts thickly after the bending machining, break easily during hydroforming.Therefore, it is very important suppressing to subtract thick.In addition, when bending machining, give with the corresponding girth of the perimeter change of hydroforming metal die and also become extremely important.When particularly under low pressure carrying out hydroforming, when the girth after bending machining is longer than the girth of hydroforming metal die, produces during hydroforming and buckle; Otherwise generation can not obtain shaping form problems such as (for example R parts) at girth than the girth of hydroforming metal die in short-term.
In addition, when pipe is carried out hydroforming, before hydroforming, undergauge is carried out at the pipe two ends.At this moment, can not insert plug, so can not prevent from effectively to buckle at tube interior.
In addition, when hydroforming, also there be the sectional width situation narrower than former caliber in the section shape difference of the each several part of length direction.Therefore, carry out the pipe p of bending machining, may not inject the hydroforming pass with bender in the past.At this moment, normally following carrying out: after device carried out bending machining in the past, after damage by pressure the position of pipe p and hydroforming pass being disturbed by drawing, be inserted in the hydroforming pass.Just, comprise (1) bending machining operation, (2) punch process operation, (3) hydroforming operation as manufacturing procedure, this also is irrational from increasing the viewpoint of manufacturing time, processing unit (plant) and preparation metal die.

The specific embodiment
The structure summary of the tube bend processing device of present embodiment as shown in Figure 1.The a-a cutaway view of Fig. 1 as shown in Figure 2.The tube bend processing device of present embodiment comprises bending die 1, anchor clamps 2, pipe position detecting device 5, pressing mold 3, pressue device 8 and control device 6.In addition, can also comprise pressing mold force application apparatus 4 as required.
Bending die 1 comprises main part and slot part.Main part can remain on rotating shaft (pivot) o with rotating freely.Slot part is formed on the side face of its main part, has and the corresponding shape of the curved shape of pipe.Bending die 1 is determined girth according to the length of the processing part of the pipe of processing.
In addition, determine the width of slot part and main part according to the diameter of pipe.
Anchor clamps 2 are the devices that keep the part of pipe p.Preferably the end of pipe p is fixed on the device on the part of side face of bending die 1.Carry out bending machining with the part that pipe p is fixed on the anchor clamps 2 as 1 strong point.
Pipe position detecting device 5 is that detection bending die 1 and pressing mold 3 are clamped the device of the position of pipe p.Be so that purpose is detected, is controlled to be in the position of pipe p undergauge, detect pipe p and be bent the position that mould 1 and pressing mold 3 are clamped.Special preferred detection is carried out the part of bending machining to pipe p.As described later, preferably the part of carrying out bending machining is carried out the undergauge of pipe p, thus the position of preferred detection pipe p, again according to the extent control pressue device 8 of the corresponding bending machining in detected position.
As the device of the position of detecting pipe p, can adopt the device of the position of the position of detecting the anchor clamps 2 that are used to keep pipe p or pressing mold 3, directly measure the position of pipe p device, detect the device etc. of the anglec of rotation of bending die 1.The shape of the slot part of bending die 1 is corresponding with the curved shape of pipe p, changes according to the anglec of rotation, so can detect the groove shape of bending die 1, the just curved shape of pipe p by the anglec of rotation that detects bending die 1.
The position probing of pipe p etc., there is no particular limitation for the detection method of the anglec of rotation.Can adopt common checkout gear, for example linear encoder, rotary encoder etc.In addition, also can be used to detect the pipe position from beginning bending machining institute elapsed time.Pipe position detecting device 5 detected pipe positional informations are exported to control device 6 as the pipe position signalling.
Pressing mold 3 is pipe p to be pressed in slot part make it that device of plastic deformation take place.Pressing mold 3 keeps pipe p, can be mobile and supported on the direction of principal axis of pipe p with pipe p.In slot part and pressing mold 3 mating parts,, make all length of the girth of its slot part and pressing mold 3 mating parts than pipe at least for the part of pipe p undergauge.In addition, the girth of slot part and pressing mold 3 mating parts depends on the characteristics such as draftability of pipe, is preferably below 97% of girth of pipe, more preferably below 95%.In addition, the girth of slot part and pressing mold 3 mating parts is preferably more than 85%, and more preferably 85%.
Its result can need the part of undergauge to carry out undergauge to pipe p effectively.For example, as shown in Figure 2, when pipe p is clipped between bending die 1 and the pressing mold 3, produced space u, the girth of bending die 1 and pressing mold 3 mating parts is than all length of pipe p as can be known.
In addition, slot part and pressing mold 3 mating parts also can be than all length of all pipes.At this moment, as described later,, can only make pressue device 8 effects up to pipe p undergauge, thereby the necessary part of pipe p is carried out undergauge in the part that needs undergauge by control device 6 control pressue devices 8.In addition, also can carry out undergauge to all parts of pipe p.Be pressed in slot part and pipe p after carrying out undergauge is subjected to plastic deformation, easily with slot part as impetus and bending.
The section shape of slot part and pressing mold 3 mating parts can be selected according to the section shape of the pipe p of last needs.In addition, when this device is used as the pre-forming device of hydroforming, can be regardless of the section shape of the pipe p that needs at last, and select the section shape of slot part and pressing mold 3 mating parts.For example, can select section shape with the shape of mould according to hydroforming.
Pressue device 8 is by pressurization pressing mold 3 to be pressed in device on the bending die 1.As pressue device 8, can adopt common devices such as oil sector, crank mechanism.Pressue device 8 among Fig. 1 is devices of controlling by hydraulic pressure control device 9.Pressue device 8 can be according to the control signal controlled pressure and the amount of feeding of control device 6 inputs.As required, can measure the pressure and/or the amount of feeding of pressue device 8, output in the control device 6 as signal.
Straight line and the pressing mold 3 of the pivot of the abutment by bending die 1 and pipe p and the main part of bending die 1 meet at a bit, and pressue device 8 is devices that this intersection point is pressurizeed.Compression aspect is the direction towards the pivot of main part.Usually, for position and the direction that makes pressurization is certain, pressue device 8 is by 3 pressurizations of 7 pairs of pressing molds of clamper.As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2, clamper 7 is constraint pressing molds 3 on the rotating shaft direction of the radial direction of bending die 1 and bending die 1, and makes the bending die 1 can be movably to its device that keeps on the direction of principal axis of pipe p.
Pipe p is from some effect effectively on the direction of the pivot of main part dorsad of contact bending die 1.By on pipe p, applying the power opposite with this force direction, can make dynamic balance, can prevent from pipe p, to apply turning moment.In addition, can not need buckle necessary wiper die etc. of preventing in the tube bend processing device in the past to keep the parts of pipe p from the opposition side of pressing mold 3.Because it is more skilled that wiper die requires when adjusting is provided with the position, still be the running stores of wearing and tearing simultaneously, so do not need the benefit of wiper die a lot.
Control device 6 is devices of controlling pressue device 8 according to the pipe position signalling of pipe position detecting device 5 inputs.As the method for control pressue device 8, the method for the pressure of controlling pressing mold 3 and the method for the amount of feeding of control pressing mold 3 are arranged.For example, the relation of the cut-off of pressure or the amount of feeding and pipe p can be considered to measure in advance,, and the method for the undergauge of necessary amount can be only carried out the part of necessity according to this relation control pressue device 8.As previously mentioned, as required can be from control signals such as pressue device 8 input pressures such as grade, the amount of feeding.The preferred amount of feeding cut-off of directly regulating pipe p by control pressing mold 3.In addition, from easy aspect, preferred controlled pressure.In addition, even think that also pressure is certain, at the position of carrying out tube bending processing, the undergauge degree is also different.
Illustrate the relation of pipe position signalling and control pressue device 8.At first, try to achieve by the curved shape in the pipe position detecting device 5 detected pipe positions, the bending curvature of this part is big more, and pressue device 8 applied pressures (and/or amount of feeding) are increased, and cut-off is big more.Make pressure etc. become big according to curvature, can prevent effectively that bending machining from producing buckle, subtract is thick, ovalization etc.
In addition, when in the preform of hydroforming, using this device, need to change the diameter of pipe p regardless of the position of bending machining.To this position, also can partly carry out undergauge to necessity by controlled pressure etc.
Pressing mold force application apparatus 4 is to the device of pressing mold 3 application of forces on the direction of principal axis of pipe p.Owing to pressing mold 3 and pipe p along with the rotation of bending die 1 is moved, so big if the size of pipe p becomes, the power that then is applied on the bending die 1 also becomes big.By using 4 pairs of pressing mold 3 application of forces of pressing mold force application apparatus, can reduce to make the power of bending die 1 rotation.In addition, also can use the pipe booster that in the past used to replace pressing mold force application apparatus 4.In addition, because the end that the pipe booster must keep pipe p can make equipment miniaturization so directly force in the pressing mold force application apparatus 4 of pressing mold 3, be preferred.
The tube bend processing device of present embodiment is owing to have said structure, thereby has the following effects effect.Just, this processing unit (plant) is clamped the pipe p that is bent processing by anchor clamps 2, is fixed on the side face of bending die 1.1 rotations of anchor clamps 2 and bending die.Apply power by anchor clamps 2, bending die 1 and pressing mold 3, pipe p is carried out bending machining according to the slot part shape of the side face of bending die 1.
Pressue device 8 is controlled in the position that control device 6 is 5 detected according to the pipe position detecting device, pipe p is bent mould 1 and pressing mold 3 is clamped.Particularly, be that the locational bending machining degree of the pipe p that clamps according to bending die 1 and pressing mold 3 and the caliber of needs are controlled pressue device 8.Just, when the position of the pipe p that clamps is the less part of more part of bending machining and the diameter that needs, pressue device 8 is operated biglyyer, can make the degree of pipe p undergauge become big.
Its result, when pressing mold 3 approached to bending die 1, the pipe p that is clipped between pressing mold 3 and the bending die 1 was extruded in a circumferential direction, according to approaching degree undergauge to the shape that meets pressing mold 3 and bending die 1.When the undergauge position of pipe p was the part of bending machining, the part of stretching tube wall was replenished because of the unnecessary pipe thickness of undergauge by bending machining, can prevent pipe p curved outside subtract thick.In addition, owing on the circumferencial direction of pipe p, be applied with compression stress during undergauge, produce, so can suppress the buckling and the ovalization the during bending machining of pipe p of curved interior of pipe p to the stress of the tube wall of slot part and pressing mold 3 extruding pipe p.
Pressing mold force application apparatus 4 by on the direction of principal axis of pipe p to pressing mold 3 application of forces, the inertia force that can suppress pressing mold 3 is applied on the bending die 1, so bending die 1 rotation, just can carry out smoothly to axial the moving of pipe p.In addition owing to can reduce the slip of pressing mold 3 and pipe p, can also suppress to stay in the curved outside of pipe p a little attenuate pull and stretch caused subtract thick.
As mentioned above, according to bender of the present invention can make can suppress subtracting of curved outside thick and do not buckle in curved interior, the different pipe of girth on direction of principal axis.
Embodiment
Experiment condition
Use tube bend processing device of the present invention and tube bend processing device in the past, carry out tube bending processing under various conditions.And have or not plug, have or not wiper die, have or not the pipe booster change of (being the pressing mold force application apparatus in apparatus of the present invention), and change the pressure of pressing mold and carry out.After the bending machining of pipe, mensuration outward appearance, maximum subtract thick rate and processing back minimum perimeter polygon.With the perusal outward appearance, whether research produces is buckled, crackle and subtract thick.
Maximum subtracts thick rate and tries to achieve according to following method.The wall thickness of the pipe after the processing uses point micrometer, measures every the spacing of 10 ° of angle of bend, with the wall thickness of minimum of a value after as processing.Maximum subtracts thick rate as shown in the formula definition.
Maximum subtracts thick rate=(wall thickness of (wall thickness of the wall thickness after the processing-former pipe)/former pipe) * 100 (%)
Minimum perimeter polygon after the processing is to measure minimum of a value in the girth of the pipe after the processing along the pipe direction of principal axis.In many experiments, the bending condition of pipe comprises minimum bending machining, can not carry out the processing conditions of bending machining in processing unit (plant) in the past fully than more options.
Experiment 1
The pipe that uses is the electric welded steel pipe of external diameter (D) as the carbon steel of φ 65mm, girth 204mm, wall thickness (t) 2.3mm, weighs with JIS11 pipe stretching standard, and hot strength (TS) is 840Mpa, extensibility 22%.The bending radius of the bending machining that this pipe carries out (R) is 90mm ( 1.4D), and angle of bend is 90 °.Other processing conditions and experimental result are as shown in table 1.

Whether no matter the experimental example 8~9 that uses device in the past to carry out bending machining has or not plug and wiper die, use the pipe booster all to be difficult to obtain good goods.With respect to this, even not using plug and wiper die also can not produce, the experimental example 1~7 that uses apparatus of the present invention to carry out bending machining do not buckle and breakage, can obtain good goods.
The result of experimental example 1~5 shows that along with increasing the pressure of pressing mold being pressed to bending die, maximum subtracts thick rate and reduces, and obtains bending machining pipe more uniformly.In this experiment, when 25ton was above, the reduction effect that maximum subtracts thick rate was saturated to the pressure of pressing mold pressurization.This can think because the girth of bending die and pressing mold is 192mm, and the minimum perimeter polygon after the processing of the pipe of experimental example 4 and 5 is 193mm, and the pipe cut-off is saturated, and its result can not make maximum subtract thick rate and further reduce.
In addition, the result of experimental example 5~7 shows, even the pressure of pressing mold is identical, also can makes maximum subtract thick rate by the pressing mold force application apparatus to the pressing mold application of force and reduce.
