Definitions

  • the technical field of the invention is the method of forming metallic ones Lid rings that are rounder or non-round for mounting and flanging on a container Nature are needed.
  • Such cover rings are made of flat in the prior art Stamped out of sheet metal, with a round blank being formed in the middle, representing waste; only the cover ring is required for the further production of the container.
  • the invention proposes another way of solving the problem mentioned.
  • the A solution can be found as a method in claim 1 and as a device in claim 10. It is advantageously supplemented and designed by the dependent claims.
  • the invention is based on the creation of a cylinder ring which has not yet been completely shaped (Ring blank), which arises from a can body, manufactured with a pull-in tool or a telescopic tool.
  • a step tool can also be used for education of the ring blank can be used.
  • the can body is made from a sheet metal cutout shaped into a round or non-round design. By separating (at T) the The actual box is made of the ring blank with the "outer ring dimension" of the Cover ring, which is essentially cylindrical or oval (out of round), only a small one ring ring projecting inwards.
  • Cylinder segments are closed under a ring blank in the sense of the description understand that are not necessarily circular, but clearly in the axial direction have extending wall height.
  • a cylinder in the sense of the description also understood a non-round cylinder, which is oval, with a clear extension of the Wall in the axial direction.
  • the cylinder segment is made into a compilation as a blank Several ring-shaped tool segments introduced and axially shifted downwards (Claim 1) to shape it in a radial direction via a deflecting cliff, where he to a radially inwardly deformed and extending in the radial direction Lid ring will.
  • the deflection over the deflection cliff is done so that the downward / inward deformed blank is pressed into a gap by an upper and an underlying tool segment is defined.
  • the forming process forms the cylindrical blank (in circular up to oval base shape) in a flat ring shape blank (claim 6), which in addition an upward aisle of another ring stamp with an erected ring wall Receives inner roll.
  • a cylindrical recess (claim 10) is the basic shape of the cylindrical Adjusted blanks, it can also have a basic oval shape, but with an axially clear extension to accommodate the cylindrical blank and to move down.
  • the recess is in its radial extension to the Adjusted thickness of the cylindrical blank to be formed.
  • FIG. 1 or 2 it should be noted that the pulling or pulling process is stopped shortly before its end (about 80% to 95% before the end of the last reducing process) in order not to retract the diameter of the upper edge 40a of the fuselage to 2xr 1 .
  • the edge region 40a remains as a blank cover ring VR when it is severed at T (dividing line).
  • the dismantled fuselage 30/40 in the remaining fuselage 30 and cover ring blank 40 is illustrated in FIG. 3 .
  • the dividing line T which is shown both in FIG. 1 and in FIG. 2, corresponds to the circular or oval basic shape of the container 30. The separation takes place in FIG.
  • the separation is carried out from above or below at the dividing line T, the last reduction process, for example in the case of production with a telescopic tool, or the last step of a step tool not being completed, so that the cylindrical blank is above the fuselage 30 remains while he remained next to the fuselage in Figure 1, but in both versions with a larger diameter than the finished reduced fuselage.
  • the further processing of the ring blank 3 to a finished cover ring 4 can both by a single-stage tool 5 as well as by a multi-stage tool.
  • the first stage is from Figure 6a, 6b, 6c
  • the second stage is from Figure 7, the third stage 8a and 8b.
  • the transfer between the stations takes place e.g. B. via a gripper transport.
  • the Function and mode of operation will be explained using the examples below Tool designs explained and supplemented.
  • Figures 5a to 5e show the operation of the single-stage tool.
  • the ring VR separated from the can is placed mechanically or by hand on part 5 from FIG. 5a.
  • the tool parts 2, 3 and 4 are then moved into the ring by the machine stroke and form a gap S of 0.8 x sheet thickness to the parts 5, 6 and 7.
  • the parts remain in this position until the shoulder 1 a of the punch 1 holds the sheet metal ring in axial further decline of part 1 so far radially v 0 'that the sheet metal ring VR, 10 has reached the horizontal position in Figure 5b .
  • Part 1 remains in this position by placing it on one Attack.
  • Parts 3 and 4 have a hold-down force on parts 6 and 7 acting on.
  • v denotes directions of movement (oriented at speeds), the "deleted" quantities v 0 ', v 1 ', v 2 'being radial components of the sheet metal and the "non-deleted” quantities v 0 , v 1 , v 2 , v 3 axial movements of the tool.
  • sheet metal is drawn in the direction v 2 'and the ring wall 20d is set up.
  • the parts 2 and 3 following parts 5 and 6 press the set-up 20d of the cover ring into the rolling groove 4a of the rolling ring 4. Since the forces of parts 5 and 6 and of the counteracting rolling ring 4 are greater than the deformation resistance of the Sheet metal material, an inner roller 20e of the cover ring is formed by the ripening of the cover ring assembly in the roll groove 4a of the roll ring 4. After completion of the stroke, the cover ring has taken the form of Figure 5e . The part 3 is then relieved of force, the parts 1, 2 and 5 move back into the starting position. When the tool is moved apart, the ring shown in FIG. 4 is ejected.
  • FIGS . 6a, 6b, 6c, 7 and 8.8a represent the manufacture of the cover ring in three or in several possible operations. The manufacture can take place both on individual presses and on step or transfer presses.
  • FIG. 6a the ring (FIG. 3, top) separated from the can (according to FIG. 1 or FIG. 2) is fed to the tool station (FIG. 6a) and positioned on part 5.
  • part 2 is initially centered on the inner region 40b of the sheet metal ring 100.
  • part 2 and part 5 (without sheet metal) form a gap of 0.8x sheet thickness.
  • part 1 passes over the outer region 40a of the sheet metal ring 100 and pushes the ring with the shoulder 10 through the part 5 which is subjected to a holding-down force and which forms a gap S ⁇ sheet thickness with part 2 up to the inside diameter of the finished cover ring.
  • the sheet metal ring 100 then has the shape of FIG . 6b .
  • the punch 8 simultaneously reaches its end position and, with its cutting edge 12, squeezes the sheet metal into the recess provided for it approximately to a depth of 0.5 ⁇ sheet thickness over the cutting edge 11 of part 7.
  • part 1 By placing part 1 on the heel 5x of part 5, part 5 is pressed down.
  • Part 2 follows part 5 with the hold-down force applied. Because the sheet metal ring is clamped in the area of the cutting edges 11, 12, the pushing process changes into a pulling process during the continued stroke. As a result, the set-up 13 for the following inner roll of the sheet metal ring 100 according to FIG. 6c is achieved.
  • the preformed sheet metal ring 100 is transported into the trimming station and placed on the lifting ring 6 '.
  • the shaped ring 2 and the holding-down ring 9a bring the preformed sheet metal ring 100 into position so that the subsequent punch 8 'can cut off the inner edge 100r via the cutting punch 9b.
  • An inner cutting edge 100k remains. The separated ring 100r is removed by the lower tool.
  • the trimmed sheet metal ring according to FIG. 7 is then transported to the finishing station of FIG. 8 and placed on the parts 5 'and 6' which are flush with the top.
  • the parts 2 'and 3' coming from top to bottom during the press stroke are also flush when viewed from below and center with the inside dimension of part 3 'over the outside dimension of the set-up 13 of the sheet metal ring 100. If the set-up 13 inside via part 7 outside is fully centered, part 6 'remains on a stop, part 3' springs back on the sheet metal ring 100 and part 6 'during the further tool descent. Part 5 'then forms the edge of the sheet metal ring 14 via the sheet metal holder 2' to the bottom dead center of the press.
  • This multi-stage production is for cover rings with a wider radial flange 20c particularly suitable.
