Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a plasticity working method using a press machine, and more particularly to a plasticity working method adapted to prevent deterioration in precision of a product due to deformation of a die during the plasticity working.
  • the plasticity working method in which pressure capable of producing plastic deformation is applied to a blank or object set in a die to obtain a product having a desired shape.
  • the force applied to the blank from the punch is also transmitted to the die as stress. Accordingly, since it is impossible that the die provides the absolute rigidity, it is difficult to avoid the die from being deformed during the plasticity working. Specifically, in the case of an apparatus in which strong pressure is applied as in a cold forging press machine, the die is deformed largely.
  • the die is deformed uniformly over all area of the die for the plasticity working even if the die is deformed during the plasticity working, a margin for the deformation can be provided in the die in anticipation of the deformation in the form of the die.
  • the deformation amount of the die during the working is varied momentarily unpredictably in the case of the general plasticity working, improvement of the working precision can not be expected even if the deformation margin is provided in the die.
  • the strong plastic pressure is applied to the die during the plasticity working and the die is also deformed by the plastic pressure.
  • the plastic pressure is released when the punch is separated from the blank upon the knocking out and accordingly the die is returned to its initial shape by its own resilience. At this time, a damage is added to the knocked out product.
  • the present invention has been made in view of the above problems and an object of the present invention is to provide a plasticity working method having increased working precision to obtain sufficient product precision without requiring subsequent processes.
  • the plasticity working method of the present invention using a plasticity working apparatus including a punch having a moving speed capable of being controlled by a fluid pressure, a die to which a blank is attached, support means for preventing a forward movement of the punch by a fluid pressure and eject means for ejecting a plastically worked blank by the fluid pressure, whereby a pressure is applied through the punch to the blank attached to the die to thereby plastically deform the blank, comprising a first step of forward moving the punch slowly until the tip of the punch comes into contact with the blank, a second step of preventing a further forward movement of the punch by the support means while both of the fluid pressure for forward moving the punch and the fluid pressure for forward moving the support means are increased when the tip of the punch comes into contact with the blank, a third step of releasing the fluid pressure for forward moving the support means when the fluid pressure for forward moving the punch reaches a critical pressure that causes the plastic deformation in the blank, a fourth step of forward moving the punch at a speed that a deformation speed occurring
  • the influence of impact upon collision of the punch against the blank can be reduced by forward moving the punch slowly until the tip of the punch comes into contact with the blank.
  • the deflection of the die during the plasticity working occurs by stress produced in the blank due to the plastic pressure applied to the blank from the punch, the deflection of the die during the plasticity working is uniformed by controlling the speed of the forward movement of the punch so that the stress produced due to the plastic pressure is substantially uniformed over generally all area of the plasticity working.
  • ⁇ k ⁇ ⁇ m (1)
  • k a constant
  • m a deformation speed responsive index
  • ⁇ ⁇ d ⁇ /dt Since an essential variable is only the deformation speed ⁇ in the equation (1), the stress ⁇ is made constant by controlling the speed of the punch so that the deformation speed ⁇ is constant, so that the deflection of the die can be uniformed over all area of the plasticity working.
  • the fluid pressure for forward moving the punch is previously increased to the critical pressure that causes the plastic deformation in the blank while a force of the forward movement of the punch is supported by a backup cylinder acting as support means in the state where the punch and the blank are in contact with each other, and the backup cylinder is released from the state where the fluid pressure is increased to the critical pressure so that the pressure supported by the backup cylinder is applied to the blank to thereby increase the speed of the forward movement of the punch to an ideal speed more rapidly.
  • the fluid pressure for forward moving a counter punch acting as eject means is made relatively higher than the fluid pressure for forward moving the punch in the state that the fluid pressure is applied to both of the punch and the counter punch to thereby forward move the counter punch in the state where a pressure is applied to the blank, so that the blank is ejected to the die. Accordingly, since the spring back of the die does not occur until the product is ejected from the die, a damage produced in the product by the spring back can be avoided.

  • various data for example, a pressurizing force at a yield point of the blank 1 and a position of the slide 7 when the lower end surface of the punch 9 comes into contact with the blank 12, a pressurization speed corresponding to the position of the slide 7 during the plastic working and the like
  • the controller 20 controls the flow control valve 31 through the driver 34 to feed oil to the main cylinder 5 to lower the slide 7.
  • the controller 20 receives the output of the position sensor 39 through the counter 41 to monitor the position of the slide 7.
  • the controller 20 controls the directional control valve 37 through the driver 38 to feed oil to the backup cylinder 13 so that the piston 14 is moved up and the slide 7 is supported by the backup cylinder 13.
  • the controller 20 controls the flow control valve 31, the pressure control valve 32 and the directional control valve 37 while the controller 20 confirms from the output of the position sensor 39 that the position of the slide 7 is not varied, to thereby increase the pressure of the main cylinder 5 and the backup cylinder 13.
  • the controller 20 When the controller 20 understands from the output of the pressure sensor 33 that the pressure applied to the blank 12 is increased to a value just before the yield point of material, the controller 20 controls the directional control valve 37 to open the backup cylinder 13 and controls the flow control valve 31 to lower the slide 7. The pressure produced by the main cylinder 5 in response to opening of the backup cylinder 13 is applied to the blank 12, so that the blank 12 is plastically deformed by the punch 9.
  • the controller 20 controls the flow control valve 31 while monitoring the slide position produced by the position sensor 39 and the pressurized speed produced by the speed converter 40, to thereby control the pressurized speed so that the slide 7 is lowered at a constant speed.
  • the slide 7 is naturally lowered by the pressurizing operation.

  • the controller 20 When the controller 20 understands from the output of the position sensor 39 that the slide 7 reaches the predetermined bottom dead center, the controller 20 controls the pressure control valve 42 to increase the pressure of the knock-out cylinder 15 to be equal to the pressure of the main cylinder 5 while monitoring the output of the pressure sensor 43 through the amplifier 45.
  • the controller 20 When the controller 20 understands from the output of the pressure sensor 43 that the pressure of the knock-out cylinder 15 reaches the pressure of the main cylinder 5, the controller 20 controls the pressure control valve 32 to reduce the pressure of the main cylinder 5 while monitoring the output of the pressure sensor 33.
  • the counter punch 16 By reducing the pressure of the main cylinder 5, the counter punch 16 is moved up and the plastically worked blank 12 is soon knocked out from the die 11. At this time, since the blank 12 is pressurized between the counter punch 16 and the punch 9, the spring back of the die 11 does not occur until the blank 12 escapes from the die 11 and the product is not damaged by the spring back of the die 11.
  • the controller 20 controls the flow control valve 31, the directional control valve 37 and the pressure control valve 4 to move the main cylinder 5 to the upper limit position thereof and the backup cylinder 13 and the knock-out cylinder 15 to the lower limit position thereof to thereby complete one plastically working operation.
  • the foregoing has described an example in which the present invention is applied to the plasticity working using the cold forging press, while since the present invention essentially intends to improve the product precision by controlling the deformation amount of the die uniformly, the cold forging press having large deformation of the die is shown as the embodiment and the present invention can be applied to the whole plasticity working widely.
  • both of the fluid pressure for forward moving the punch and the fluid pressure for forward moving the support means are increased in the state where the forward movement of the punch is prevented by the support means and the fluid pressure for forward moving the support means is released when the fluid pressure for forward moving the punch reaches the critical pressure that the blank is plastically deformed. Accordingly, the forward moving speed of the punch can be increased to a desired speed.
  • the deformation speed occurring in the blank in substantially all area of the plastic working is maintained substantially constant and as a result the stress applied to the die is also maintained constant.
  • deformation of the die during the plastic working is maintained constant. Accordingly, by providing the deformation margin involving the previously anticipated predetermined deformation amount in the die, the product with high precision can be obtained only by the plasticity working without finishing by the subsequent process.
  • the spring back of the die does not occur until the blank is ejected, so that the product is not damaged by the spring back of the die to contribute to the precision of the product.
