Definitions

  • the invention relates to a press, which is particularly adapted for cutting thick and / or high-strength sheets.
  • Sensors such as ultrasonic sensors, or sensors that measure the flow velocity of the hydraulic fluid flowing out of the hydraulic cylinders, close a valve through which until now hydraulic fluid could flow out of the hydraulic cylinders.
  • the hydraulic cylinders are connected to pressure accumulators, which are under relatively high pressure. Therefore, they now generate a high drag. The force previously exerted by the punch on the workpiece is thus transferred to the moment in the hydraulic cylinder, in which the stamp begin to break through the workpiece.
  • a draw press is known with a blank holder which is pressed by a hydraulic biasing means against a sheet metal part to clamp the edge thereof.
  • the hydraulic device contains valves and other control means. With these should be achieved that the hydraulic means exert a controlled force on the blank holder.
  • the press according to claim 1 a sheet holding device which presses the tool during the forming operation against the lower tool.
  • the sheet holding device is able to exert different forces.
  • a control device associated with the sheet-metal holding device can influence the force exerted by the sheet-metal holding device.
  • the press drive is relieved overall, ie it saves energy.
  • the mechanical load on the press is reduced by avoiding too large sudden force changes.
  • a particularly firm clamping of the workpiece takes place during the breakthrough, resulting in particularly high cutting qualities.
  • the force on the sheet holding device can be introduced over a particularly large area and thus gently in the workpiece, so that the same undesirable deformations, such as bruising and the like, can be avoided.
  • a further improvement brings the dependent claim 11. This allows in particular the achievement of high stroke rates. If the torque of the rupture of the plunger through the workpiece, ie the moment in which the workpiece yields, is monitored, for example by hydraulic fluid delivered by hydraulic cylinder support means being monitored for volumetric flow, a steep increase in volume flow is observed at the moment of the breakthrough. However, the occurring volume flow may well be below a value that occurs at rapid stroke rates when placing the plunger on the support, which may be formed, for example, as a sheet holding device. The control device therefore releases the influence of the force applied by the support device only within a fixed path section of the plunger movement. In this way Error identifications, which would otherwise lead to gross malfunction of the press, safely excluded.
  • the fixed path portion preferably has an adjustable start ⁇ 1 or x1. In addition, it may preferably have a variably adjustable end ⁇ 2 or x2. In addition, its length can be variable and adjustable.
  • the press can be easily adjusted to different conditions, in particular with regard to the operating speed or stroke rate and the cutting force.
  • the sheet holding device or the support means to a hydraulic cylinder which is connected to a first and a second hydraulic pressure accumulator.
  • Both accumulators have, for example, a displaceably mounted piston with damped end stop.
  • membrane storage devices or storage devices may be provided in which a gas pressure pad is directly in communication with the hydraulic fluid.
  • Both accumulators preferably have different rest pressures.
  • the path leading from the hydraulic cylinder to the pressure reservoir at lower pressure is preferably regulated by a valve which monitors and closes the fluid flow, ie the mass flow, when it exceeds a limit value. This flow-sensitive valve is an advantageous variant of a sensor device which serves to detect the breakdown of the workpiece.
  • a corresponding displacement measuring device or other transducer device can also be used to obtain a signal, on the basis of which the activation window is determined, within which the punch breakthrough is expected.
  • the puncture breakthrough is then monitored only in this activation window while the support device is passive outside the activation window or the sheet metal holding device only fulfills its sheet metal holding function.
  • FIG. 1 is in an extremely schematic representation of a press 1 illustrated, which has a press frame with press stands 2, 3, a press table 4 and a head piece 5.
  • a drive 6, for example, held in the form of an electric motor which drives a plunger 9 back and forth via a schematically illustrated and shown in dashed lines eccentric 7 and a connecting rod 8 also shown in dashed lines.
  • a tool 10 with an upper tool 11 and a lower tool 12 is provided between the plunger 9 and the press table 4, a tool 10 with an upper tool 11 and a lower tool 12 is provided.
  • the lower tool 12 is formed as a punching tool.
  • On the upper tool 11 stamp 13, 14, 15 are held, which, like the other details of the tool 10 in particular FIG. 2 can be seen.
  • the tool 10 is used for punching a workpiece 16, the in FIG.
  • the lower tool 12 is illustrated as a flat workpiece.
  • the lower tool 12 then has a contour corresponding to the non-planar workpiece.
  • To the upper tool 11 includes a sheet holder plate 17 which is held on not further illustrated means on a base body 18 of the upper tool 11.
  • the main body 18 connected to the plunger 9 carries the punches 13 to 15, which are thereby rigidly connected to the plunger 9.
  • the base body 18 includes one or more hydraulic cylinders 19, 20, which together with the sheet holder plate 17 form a sheet holding device 21.
  • To the sheet holding device 21 also includes pressure pins 22 to 27, which are approximately or exactly parallel to the punches 13 to 15 are arranged and supported with its lower end face on the sheet holder plate 17. The rest, by the way essentially cylindrical pins are supported by their upper front end on floating plates 28, 29, which are thus on top of the pressure pins 22 to 27.
  • the hydraulic cylinders 19, 20 include pistons 30, 31, which delimit in the hydraulic cylinders 19, 20 corresponding with hydraulic fluid filled working spaces 32, 33 and sealed and slidably mounted in these. Piston rods 34, 35 of the pistons 30, 31 press from above onto the floating plates 28, 29 and thus the sheet metal holder plate 17 against the workpiece 16.
  • the hydraulic cylinders 19, 20 are connected via an in FIG. 2 not and in FIG. 1 only schematically shown fluid line 36 connected to a hydraulic system 37, which serves to generate a blank holder force and at the same time to take over the force exerted by the plunger 9 force during and after breakthrough of the workpiece 16.
  • This power transfer should be as stepless as possible, ie without a sudden force change.
  • To the hydraulic system 37 includes a first pressure accumulator 38 and a second pressure accumulator 39, both of which are formed in the embodiment as accumulator cylinder 40, 41 with sealed therein, slidably mounted pistons 42, 43. Both pistons 42, 43 divide in the accumulator cylinders 40, 41 each from two working chambers, the upper, each filled with a gas cushion.
  • the pressure accumulator 38 is under a pressure of about 200 bar, for example, while the pressure accumulator 39 is e.g. under a pressure of e.g. 400 bar stands.
  • Both pressure accumulators 38, 39 are connected to the fluid line 36.
  • the pressure accumulator 39 is connected via a check valve 46 and a throttle device 47 to the fluid line 36.
  • the check valve 46 is oriented so that the hydraulic fluid from the hydraulic line 36 can flow unhindered into the pressure accumulator 40, while it is forced on its way back through the throttle device 47.
  • the pressure accumulator 38 is connected via a valve device 48 to the fluid line 36 and thus the hydraulic cylinders 19, 20.
  • the valve device 48 includes, for example, a directional control valve 49 which is switchable between two states. In a first state, the fluid flow into and out of the pressure accumulator 38 is unrestricted or restricted, while in its other state it blocks this fluid flow.
  • the valve device 48 may be connected to a sensor device 50 which, for example, monitors and closes the mass flow ⁇ in the fluid line 36 as soon as this hydraulic flow directed into the pressure accumulator 38 exceeds a threshold value m th and then closes for such a long time remains until the pressure in the fluid line 36 drops below a threshold.
  • the sensor device 50 thus simultaneously forms a control device 51 for controlling the valve device 48 as a function of the speed of the relative movement between the pistons 28, 29 of the hydraulic cylinders 19, 20 and the plunger 9.
  • valve means 48 may also include, if necessary, a bypass valve 52 which bridges the valve means 48 and thus provides an alternative path from the hydraulic cylinders 19, 20 to the pressure accumulator 38.
  • By-pass valve 52 is, for example, an open / close valve that may be electrically pneumatically or otherwise controlled.
  • control device 53 which may be preferably designed as a microprocessor control or as another suitable electronic control.
  • the control device 53 receives at least one position signal. This may, for example, originate from an encoder 54, which detects the position of the plunger 9, in particular in the vicinity of its bottom dead center, as a displacement sensor.
  • an encoder 55 may be provided which detects the angular position of the eccentric shaft at least in a rotation angle range in which the plunger 9 is in the vicinity of its bottom dead center.
  • FIG. 3 Figure 1 illustrates an embodiment of the valve device 48 which is preferred for its fast response time. It has a main body 56, which is provided with at least one input 57 and with an output 58. Between both a channel 59 is formed, the passes longitudinally through the base body 6 and to which the channels of the input 57 and the output 58 are directed transversely. Between the input 57 and the output 58, a valve seat 60 is formed, which is associated with a valve closure member in the form of a disk 61. The latter sits on a pin and is biased by a spring in the opening direction of the valve seat 60 away. The bias can be adjusted if necessary by means of an externally accessible handle, such as an adjusting screw 62.
  • an externally accessible handle such as an adjusting screw 62.
  • the press 1 described so far operates in a first simple embodiment, which in principle manages without the control device 53, as follows:
  • the blank holder plate 17 touches the workpiece 16, it presses the workpiece 16 against the lower tool 12.
  • the blank holder plate 17 thus stops while the plunger 9 moves toward the workpiece 16. Also remain standing the pressure pins 22 to 27, the floating plates 28, 29 and the pistons 30, 31.
  • the volume of the working chambers 32, 33 is reduced and hydraulic fluid via the fluid line 36 and the open directional valve 49 of the valve device 48 is driven into the pressure accumulator 38, which has a lower static pressure than the pressure accumulator 39.
  • the piston 43 in FIG. 1 moved upwards against the force of the upper gas cushion.
  • the fluid flow ⁇ occurring in this process is below a threshold value, so that the sensor device 50 does not respond.
  • the directional control valve 49 closes.
  • the directional control valve 49 thus closes abruptly, wherein the closed state is maintained until a decreasing system pressure the valve closure member 61 allows to return to its open position, ie rest position.
  • a more refined embodiment uses the control device 53 to control the sheet metal holder device or an alternative supporting device, for example in the form of hydraulic cylinders between the plunger 9 and the press table 4 or the upper tool 11 and the lower tool 12.
  • the conditions are in FIG. 4 illustrated. It is assumed that a press with a high stroke rate.
  • a first curve I illustrates the path X of the plunger 9 over the rotation angle ⁇ of the eccentric shaft. It is assumed that there is an approximate sinusoidal relationship.
  • At a press angle ⁇ 0 sets the sheet holder plate 17 on the Workpiece on.
  • the curve II illustrates the mass flow of the displaced from the hydraulic cylinders 19, 20 hydraulic fluid.
  • the control device 53 now blocks the bypass valve 52, whereby the sensor device 50 is activated.
  • the criterion for releasing the sensor device 50 and the valve device 48 can also be used in that the plunger 9 passes through the point x1.
  • monitoring of the press angle is preferred because it provides better resolution.
  • FIG. 4 can be achieved by determining the activation window between the press angles ⁇ 1 and ⁇ 2 that flow peaks are detected, which are lower than the flow immediately after placing the blank holder plate 17 on the workpiece 16. This is at very fast presses (high stroke rates), at large punching strokes and especially in very rigid press racks a role in which although a very large clamping force but only a small clamping stroke occurs in the entire press frame.
  • the response threshold ⁇ th for the valve device 48 can be set very low, so that the otherwise observed punching blow to an almost imperceptible Minimum is to be limited.
  • ⁇ 1, ⁇ 2 variably. For example, they may be entered with a suitable input device. It is also possible to dynamically adjust these press angles ⁇ 1, ⁇ 2. This can for example be done by ⁇ 1 is set in a predetermined or input angular distance before punching breakthrough and ⁇ 2 at a fixed or adjustable angular distance after the punch breakthrough. As press angle of the Punch breakthrough is then used in each case the press angle from the previous punching stroke or an average value from previous punching strokes.
  • force sensors which respond to a deformation of the respective press element or directly to the force acting in the press.
  • Such may, for example, be force sensors in the tool 10.
  • the signals emitted by these sensors can be fed to the control device 53 and serve to set the press angles ⁇ 1, ⁇ 2. If, for example, the force exerted on the punches 13, 14, 15 is detected, the sensor device 50 can be released at one point in time, ie when a considerable increase in force is recorded on the punches 13, 14, 15. At this time, no false triggering of the valve device 48 is more to be feared, because the relative movement between the blank holder plate 17 and the punches 13, 14, 15 is almost zero.
  • the system according to the invention allows a significant increase in the hold-down force, in particular during the performance of the punching operation, ie while the punches 13, 14, 15 penetrate through the material of the workpiece.
  • the actual cutting force can be reduced to one sixth of the theoretical thrust.
  • the sheet holding device 21 causes a particularly firm clamping of the workpiece 16 and thus causes an improvement of the cut as well as a cutting impact damping.
  • the press 1 is biased to equalize or compensate the games. This leads to a reduction in the total compressive force of the system compared to classical cutting impact damping systems. However, this also means that older presses continue even for difficult separation operations can be used.
  • the force exerted on the blank holder plate force is preferably designed approximately to 40% of the pressing force.
  • the separation process can be monitored, evaluated and controlled by the use of a fast evaluation and control device, such as the control device 53.
  • the system can be largely self-sufficient, ie independently formed and used by the press 1. For example, it can be part of the tool, and thus be used in principle in different presses.
  • press-specific parameters can be changed via program or system-specific flash cards.
  • the pressures in the hydraulic cylinders 19, 20 can be permanently monitored encoder-dependent or path-dependent.
  • the resulting envelopes allow for permanent process monitoring.
  • the control of the bypass valve 52 takes place crank angle or path-dependent on the same system.
  • the process data and faults can be stored via data storage systems and traced back in case of damage.
  • systems for detecting overload cases can be provided.
  • a sheet holding device 21 which clamps the workpiece 16 in question during the punching operation.
  • the clamping force is increased up to 40% or more percent of the ram force.
  • the force exerted by the sheet holding device during the workpiece breakthrough can be increased again.
  • an efficient cutting impact reduction or prevention at the press results.
  • a cutting stroke is significantly weakened or does not occur.
