Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for producing a hardened sheet metal profile from a circuit board, wherein the board can also be preformed in case of need.
  • Hot working and tempering in the press tool generally has advantages due to the efficient operation of a tool through the combination of forming and tempering operation.
  • WO 99/07492 it is provided to modify the above-described press hardening process and to bend the edge-side areas of prefabricated holes in the press tool so that collars are formed.
  • the bending of the holes happens in the press tool before hardening.
  • the openings in the sheet profile should serve as feedthrough holes for mounting screws. It is conceivable to use such holes also for positional orientation of the sheet metal profile in subsequent manufacturing operations.
  • Such openings with collar are called technically-terminological as passages. They are also used in practice, especially in the automotive industry, to reinforce holes or breakthroughs in automotive components, such as cross members. These passages should prevent the components in these areas from prematurely buckling and failing in the event of a crash.
  • the invention is based on the prior art, the task of demonstrating a rational process for the production of hardened sheet metal profiles with passages.
  • the solution of this problem is according to the invention in a method according to claim 1.
  • the production of the passages can take place in one go or on prefabricated holes.
  • the bead or beads are produced.
  • the production of the passages and the beads takes place in the course of the blanking.
  • the thus prepared board can be transported lying on a conveyor in a heat treatment plant and heated there. After heating, the board is hot worked in a press tool to sheet metal profile and cooled, thereby curing sets.
  • the passages can serve as reference points for positional orientation of the sheet metal profile in subsequent manufacturing operations or for stiffening the sheet metal profile or as mounting holes.
  • a board or a semi-finished product made of a steel which in terms of weight percent consists of carbon (C) 0.19 to 0.25, silicon (Si) 0.15 to 0.50, manganese (Mn) 1, 10 to 1.40, titanium (Ti) 0.020 to 0.050, boron (B) 0.002 to 0.005, aluminum (Al) 0.02 to 0.06 and phosphate (P) in an amount up to max. 0.025, sulfur (S) max. 0.015, chromium (Cr) max. 0.35 and molybdenum (Mo) max. 0.35, the remainder being iron (Fe), including impurities due to melting.
  • the plate provided with passages and corrugations is heated in the heat treatment plant to hardening temperature, that is to a temperature above Ac 3 , where the steel is in an austenitic state. As a rule, this temperature is between 775 ° C and 1000 ° C.
  • the forming process takes place in the press tool, whereupon hardening begins by cooling.
  • a fine-grained martensitic or bainitic material structure arises.
  • the sheet profile is clamped during the curing process in the press tool.
  • the case made cooling can be carried out directly or indirectly. In direct cooling, the sheet metal profile is brought directly into contact with a coolant. In indirect cooling, the press tool or parts thereof is cooled.
  • a bead is formed deeper than a collar of a passage. This ensures that the board is reliably supported by the beads lying on the conveyor.
  • the passages or collar are at a distance from the funding free.
  • the beads are designed groove-like and oriented in the conveying direction. This measure contributes to a reliable transport of the boards through the heat treatment plant. A snagging of the board on the conveyor, for example between the furnace rollers, is avoided.
  • the groove-like beads ensure a defined contact surface on the conveyor.
  • the board is stiffened as a whole, so that it comes only to small deflections of the board in the heat treatment plant during transport and heating.
  • the beads can, if necessary, be leveled again before the cooling step and thus removed (claim 4).
  • the stacking capacity of the boards is maintained. Tilting or rocking of the board stack is reduced or reliably prevented depending on the formation of the beads.
  • the beads ensure, as already mentioned, that the passages are not damaged during transport on the conveyor by the heat treatment plant or a board stuck to the conveyor.
  • the board is stiffened, so that there is only a small deflection in the heat treatment plant during transport.
  • Figures 1 and 2 show a circuit board 1 when passing through a not further illustrated heat treatment plant in the form of a furnace 2.
  • the circuit board 1 is supported on a conveyor 4 formed from furnace rollers 3.
  • the board 1 has from its plane projecting in the image plane downwardly open passages 5 with circumferential collar 6. These have been produced at the blanking board, as well as two almost the entire length of the board 1 extending groove-like beads 7.
  • the beads 7 are parallel to the longitudinal direction of the rectangular board 1 and are oriented in the conveying direction (arrow F) - ie at right angles to the longitudinal axis of the Oven rolls 3.
  • the beads 7 are formed deeper than the collar 6 of the passages 5. Consequently, the passages 5 are at ground clearance to the furnace rollers 3.
  • the board 1 is carried by the beads 7 which come into contact with the furnace rollers 3 and transported through the furnace 2.
  • the board 1 is heated to a temperature of about 970 ° C and then hot-formed in a press tool for sheet metal profile and then cured. The hardening of the sheet profile is still clamped in the press tool.
