Definitions

  • the invention relates to a flexible tool for hydroforming and is used in particular in the processing of single or double sheet metal blanks.
  • Numerous solutions for the internal high pressure forming of rotationally symmetrical hollow bodies of the metal sheets connected to one another at the edges are already known.
  • DE 44 34 799 A1 shows the forming of a sheet metal plate under the action of a hydraulic pressure medium.
  • the tool is divided into an upper and lower tool.
  • the circuit board is arranged in the parting plane.
  • the high-pressure chamber is arranged in the lower tool and the mold contour in the upper tool. Due to the hydraulic pressure, the board is formed until it is fully in contact with the contour of the mold.
  • a solution for punching with internal pressure is described in DE 43 22 063 C1, the cutout being cut out immediately after the internal high-pressure forming. With a maximum internal pressure, pre-cutting takes place down to a residual wall thickness and with a reduced internal pressure, the final cutting.
  • a disadvantage of all known methods is that only one method variant can be implemented with the known
  • the tool for hydroforming has gem. 1a and 1b an upper tool part 1 and a lower tool part 2.
  • the metal plate 3 is inserted between these two tool halves 1 and 2.
  • a high-pressure chamber 4 which is connected to the high-pressure system via a high-pressure bore 5.
  • a die 6 with an axially displaceable punch 7 is arranged in the upper tool part 1.
  • the surface 6a of the die 6 has the shape elements to be produced with the height h in the direction of the sheet 3.
  • the stamp 7 is set back or shortened by the height h of the shaped element of the surface 6a.
  • the stamp surface 7a of the stamp 7 lies in one plane with the surface 6a, ie the highest point of the shaped element, the die 6.
  • the sheet 3 has completely touched the surface 6a of the Die 6 and applied to the stamp surface 7a of the stamp 7.
  • the punch 7 is used according to the requirements and its design either for punching the formed sheet 3 under internal pressure p or after opening both tool halves 1 and 2 for ejecting the formed part.
  • the punch 7 carries out either a positive stroke + H in the direction of the sheet 3 and / or a negative stroke -H in the opposite direction under internal pressure P.
  • the punch 7 serves as an ejector, the ejection takes place after opening the tool halves 1 and 2 without pressure by a positive punch stroke in the direction of the sheet 3.
  • the punch 6 functions as a punch. Due to a negative return stroke -H in the direction of the arrow, the sheet was perforated by the internal pressure.
  • the stamp 7 is designed as a shaped stamp. It also closes according to Fig. 2a from internal high pressure forming with its stamp surface 7a with the recessed surface 6a of the die 6 pointing in the direction of the sheet 3.
  • FIG. 3 A further embodiment variant, in which the stamp 7 projects beyond the surface 6a of the die 6 into the forming space and contains surface elements on its stamp surface 7a for producing the desired surface contour, is shown in FIG. 3.
  • the sheet metal 3 lies on the surface by means of internal high pressure forming 6a of the die and on the stamp surface 7a of the stamp 7 (broken line). It is also possible to further shape the sheet 3 with internal pressure in a second forming step by means of a corresponding positive stroke + H of the punch 7.
  • the die 6 has a flat surface 6a lying against the sheet metal without a shaped element.
  • the punch 7 is also axially movable in the die 6.
  • the stamp 7 causes the sheet 3 to be deep-drawn in the direction of the high-pressure chamber 4 under internal pressure.
  • FIG. 5 An embodiment variant, in which several punches 7 are arranged for the multiple punching of the sheet or for the introduction of several additional shaped elements on the piston rod 8 of the cylinder 9, FIG. 5.
  • the punches 7 are connected to the piston rod 9 of the perforated cylinder 10 via clamping plates 8.
  • the punch 7 is guided in the die 6.
  • FIGS. 6a to 6c A combination of the tool according to the invention with a displaceable die 7, which has a centrally arranged, also axially displaceable punch 7.1, is shown in FIGS. 6a to 6c.
  • a shaped element 11 is arranged in the lower tool part 2.
  • 6a shows the starting position.
  • the die 7 and the punch 7.1 are both set back by the dimension h.
  • the punch 7 In the first forming stage according to Fig. 6b is performed with the punch 7 with a positive stroke + H (Fig. 6a) at an internal pressure of approximately 300 bar.
  • the sheet metal 3 forms freely in the high-pressure forming space 4.
  • the punch 7 is slowly moved back into the end position with a simultaneously increased internal pressure.
  • the increased internal pressure can be a multiple of the lower pressure and depends on the material and the surface contour of the sheet to be produced. This is followed by punching with the punch 7.1 under internal pressure (Fig. 6c).
  • the stamp path is regulated or controlled via a path measuring system 15.
  • Two mutually independent perforated cylinders L1 and L2 are advantageously provided so that perforations can be made independently of one another or formed with the respective punch.
  • the perforated cylinders L1 and L2 are attached to a cylinder holding plate 16.
  • Another possibility for controlling the stamp path is shown in FIG. 8. The path is limited by a spacer plate, which can be arranged either above or below the clamping plate depending on the stroke direction.
  • the oil supply to the oil supply lines is regulated accordingly.
  • the perforated cylinders and the cylinder holding plate 16 can be omitted.
  • the piston 18 is guided directly in the upper part 1 of the tool.
  • a sealing flange 19 is provided above the piston 18 and a spacer plate 17 is arranged below the piston 18 via a clamping plate 20 such that a distance corresponding to the required stroke is present between the clamping plate and the die 6.
  • the second oil supply line 22 leads into this space.
  • the first oil supply line 21 is supplied at the top of the piston 18. In the starting position, the piston 18 strikes the sealing flange. When pressure is applied via the first oil supply line 21, the piston 18 is moved downward with the plunger 7 (positive stroke) until the clamping plate 20 strikes the die 6.
  • the return stroke takes place via the second oil feed line 22.
  • the stroke can be adjusted by the thickness of the spacer plate 17.
  • punching with a negative stroke the spacer plate is moved and strikes the die 6 in the starting position and is moved in the direction of the sealing flange 19.
  • This design according to the invention ensures a simple construction and a small size.
  • the stamp can be designed as a stamp, punch or ejector.
  • a further punch can be arranged in the center both in the form of a form stamp and in the form of an ejector.
  • the various design options and the interchangeability of the individual elements make a versatile application possible.
  • the coupling or integration of the hydraulic cylinder significantly reduces the cost of the entire tool.
