Definitions
- the invention relates to the arcuate bending of a sheet according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the application of the invention relates to very large, thin-walled, possibly already pre-profiled sheets or to finished profiles, beads in the web area and complicated shapes on the flange parts are provided, or also difficult to bend pre-profiled sheets or profiles made of tough material with a large cross-section.
- the sheets and profiles should have an arcuate bend in the support plane and in the flange area in the manner of a deformation by stretching on one side.
- pre-bent metal sheets should additionally be given a curvature out of the support plane and a cone-like curvature should be given.
- the application of the invention relates in particular to elongated aluminum profiles, which are initially unbent rail-like and consist of a central web with laterally angled flanges, with semi-circular beads pointing outwards from the manufacturer at the ends of the flanges.
- the beads are circular in cross-section on one side of a flange, smaller than a spherical bead, and on the other flange a larger semi-circular bead is formed in cross-section, pointing outward in the manner of a hook.
- Such elongated profiles are used to be hooked together, i. H. the larger hook-shaped bead engages over the smaller bead of the profile strand, so that such profile strands can be placed side by side in any width.
- the larger hook-shaped bead is then crimped over the smaller bead, which creates larger contiguous profiled surfaces in a permanent connection to z. B. roofs or the like.
- the profile parts can still be hooked and flanged together on the originally intended flanges and the lateral beads even after bending in any complicated geometric shapes.
- the profiled rails are also curved in the vertical direction, so that the rails additionally have a concave or convex course without the other previous profiling, in particular also beads, being affected.
- the previously rectilinear and then circularly bent rail is now additionally bent in the vertical direction in an upward or downward direction, so that the curved rail additionally has a concave or convex shape.
- a profile rail which has already been bent under supervision and which additionally has a concave or convex profile can also be given a cone-shaped bend in the manner of a curve elevation.
- Any geometric shapes, in particular roofs, can thus be reproduced for covering without the original profiling, which is provided as stiffening and / or for interlocking, being lost.
- a rail-like profile with a web area and two lateral flanges, if necessary with beads, is then bent under supervision from above without interfering with the bead area, namely by applying an increasing pressing force to the center bar and by rolling out a side flange , whereby any pre-profiles or beads are not additionally rolled out.
- Such an arcuate profile is additionally given a convex or concave curvature by roll bending or core roll bending machines with superimposed press rolls, the beads not being specially rolled out.
- Another solution provides for the curvature of a rail-like profile also to be superimposed on the bead area with pressing pressure in order to achieve convex or concave curvatures, the beads being initially only partially or completely bent up and later being bent back into the original shape.
- the arcuate beads can also be rolled out very well without them being deformed or torn.
- an arcuate and additionally concave or convex profile part can then additionally be conically deformed.
- the object of the invention is to provide a method which enables the bending of thin-walled and large-volume profiles and sheets, bulging or tearing of the sheet should be avoided and an original pre-profiling should be obtained and a dimensionally stable, curved profile part should be created, this Bending should be integrated into parts of an existing roll bending device.
- a rail-like profile initially running in a straight line, possibly with complicated profiles on the flanges, is bent in the support plane, that is to say in the form of an arc when viewed from above, as a result of the features mentioned.
- the invention now prevents the resulting upsetting forces by the pressure distribution in the web area of the sheet and by rolling out the flange, so that a balanced force curve is created in the sheet metal part, d. H. a new neutral line is created from which the pressing force is applied.
- the invention uses a controlled thinning and thus an extension through controlled rolling processes, with smaller emerging compression forces being distributed beneath the newly formed bending line to an innocuous extent in the profile areas of the sheet.
- the pressure profile of the two horizontally opposite press rollers can be provided linearly for arcuate bends. This results in a shift of compression forces, in particular on the compression side of the sheet, in sheet metal areas, the result being a stress-free profile part.
- the pre-curved profile part can also be detected and rolled out further, especially in the case of unstable and relatively weakly dimensioned profile parts. This can also be repeated.
- the rolling out of the flange area of the sheet metal with two lateral pressure rollers can precede the rolling out of the web area, or can be connected in between.
- the plate is carefully pre-stretched in its flange area with a force distribution that is favorable for the subsequent rolling process of the contact surface of the plate.
- lateral pressure rollers can also be arranged in series. Also in later process steps, e.g. B. after partial rolling of the web of the sheet, one or more pairs of lateral press rolls can be arranged.
- the sheet or the profile part in particular a Z-shaped profiled sheet metal part, can be arranged in its web and flange area between two horizontal press rolls in the manner of a four-roll bending machine, according to the invention starting from the lower, middle roll, a relatively large pressing force in the vertical direction against the For this purpose, the upper roll is exerted, whereby the otherwise known roll bending is combined with roll bending.
- the method is based on a four-roll bending machine known per se.
- the sheet is guided in a known manner between two middle guide rollers and curved on the left and right, lower rollers symmetrically provided for this purpose, which are arranged offset in height.
- the middle guide rollers only serve to generate a certain frictional force in order to convey and guide the sheet.
- the invention now provides a completely new pressing force on the lower middle roll in the vertical direction against the roll lying opposite in the vertical direction, which surprisingly results in considerable technical advantages over roll bending.
- the lower middle roll presses upward with a vertical pressing force.
- two or more press rolls are overlaid with vibrations.
- tough, solid material is advantageously deformed.
- the vibration generates beats of a certain frequency, which, with the support of the press rolls, causes the sheet metal to deform more effectively.
- the vibrations can be provided on the upper horizontal press roller on the maximum press pressure side. In this case, there is an advantageous stress-free distribution of stretching and compression forces in the desired partial areas of the sheet.
- One or more side press rolls can also be overlaid with vibrations. This also supports the effect of the side press rollers during the rolling process.
- a device for carrying out the method according to claim 14.
- press rolls with which the appropriate pressure distribution in the rolling area of the sheet according to. the procedure is carried out.
- the result is a rolling process that can be adjusted both symmetrically and asymmetrically in order to achieve radii of different strengths through this adjustment.
- the web of the sheet and its outer flange area on the long side of the profile do justice to this.
- the outward-facing beads of the flanges are also bent in the course of the bending of the web and flange area, so that there is a risk that the beads can only imperfectly follow the other turns, in particular turns of the web area.
- the beads are now rolled out according to the profile, without losing the original fit that is necessary to get the profile parts hooked after bending.
- horizontal press rolls in the web area and lateral press rolls on the flanges are provided in upstream or downstream in order to bend the sheet in an arc, and for bending are carried out in upstream or downstream bending stations the almost circular beads formed on the profile from the outset either partially semicircular or completely in a straight line and overlaid with pressing forces.
- the beads are then deformed back into the original shape.
- the beads are partially bent in a semicircular shape and that for the concave curvature of the sheet on the flanges on the left and right, starting from the beads and on the beads themselves, linearly increasing pressing forces are provided in the outer and inner areas and that linearly increasing arc-shaped pressing forces are applied in the transition to the web area and a uniform roller pressure is subsequently applied to the center web.

- the lateral flange region 9 of the sheet metal 5 is replaced by lateral ones according to the greatest radius of curvature Rolled out press rolls.
- the sheet 5 can also be exposed to this course of forces in repeated passes.
- the beads 52 are not rolled out in this process, but are only bent in the course of the entire deformation of the sheet 5.
- press-roll bending process prevents the thin sheet-metal profile 5 from bulging and, as a result, achieves a stably curved molded part.
- the bending or rolling process can be repeated both on the web 11 of the sheet 5 itself and on the flange area 9 of the sheet 5 with different pressing forces.
- the method according to the invention is particularly well suited for upstream or downstream connection in known core roll bending machines or three-roll bending machines, where the sheet is additionally curved in the vertical direction, since the invention additionally achieves pre- or post-processing of the sheet 5, which results in a stable, wave-free curvature leads.

- both shapes of the bead 52 either partially bent or completely bent have their advantages. From the illustration on the right in FIG. 13 it follows that if the bead 52 is not bent up particularly then a pressing force acts at the apex 60 which is smaller than the pressing force according to FIG. 14 at the end of the bead 52 ', i.e. So that after bending the beads relatively high pressing forces are applied, but profiled pairs of rollers 69, 71 are avoided.

- a radius 77 is defined on the right bead 52, where a zero point 79 is present, from which the pressing force increases in the form of the linear curve 80 up to a vertex 81, which lies in the plane of the center leg 11 .
- a pressing force corresponding to the arc curve 82 is provided, which extends to the point 83, which lies in the plane of the flange 9. It is now important that a certain pressing force 84 already exists here and that the pressing force 84 increases from position 83 in the form of the linear curve 85 to position 86, where the pressing force 87 is maximum.
- the pressing force again follows the radius 76, i.e. it follows the arcuate pressing force 88 in order to then extend to the apex 89, which lies in the plane of the center leg 11.
- radius 76 i.e. the largest radius
- radius 75 a smaller deformation is necessary in accordance with the smaller radius, which results in the decrease in the pressing force in the form of the linear curve 91.
- a profile By applying different pressing forces to the form rollers by using different form rollers, a profile can be brought into different geometrical positions.
- beads or closed profile cross sections are partially or fully opened in order to carry out the press rolling process in order to to achieve a controlled deformation in this way and only then are the bent parts closed again in downstream stations, ie returned to its original form.
- any geometric shapes for covering roofs or the like can be produced in a fixed connection.
- This method can also be used to produce sheets with straight ends, depending on the arrangement of the press-roll bending rollers and the profiling roller systems with respect to one another.
