- a connecting layer between a molded motherboard and at least one reinforcing plate in the form of an adhesive and / or molten and solidified glass material is provided, which is the motherboard and the at least one reinforcing board or more Reinforcing reinforcing plates sealingly together, wherein the molded motherboard and the at least one molded reinforcing plate fit together to avoid gaps, and wherein the connecting layer of a sealing foam adhesive, a material film, in particular pressure-sensitive adhesive film, adhesive fiber composite mat, silicone, epoxy resin adhesive, polyurethane adhesive, hot melt adhesive, PUR Dispersion adhesive or sintered glass.
- This provides a process for hot or hot forging sheet metal, particularly blanks, which combines the advantages of co-forming blanks to be joined and hot or hot forging with those of optimum sealing and blending of the molded blanks. Due to the Using a common hot or hot forming of motherboard and reinforcing board (s) a very good manufacturing accuracy and avoidance of gaps between the formed blanks can be achieved in combination with the advantage of an arbitrarily high degree of deformation, due to the use of a hot or hot forging in contrast for example, to cold forming such as deep drawing. As a result, in particular the press tools used can be spared, even when using almost any material thicknesses of boards and their combination with each other.
- connection layer is arbitrary.

In this way, a full-surface connection of the boards can be achieved up to the edge region of the reinforcing board (s) even with very complex shapes.
- An additional application of a sealant bead in the edge region of the at least one reinforcing plate is therefore no longer necessary, but may, if desired, nevertheless be provided.

- the number of joints depends on the sheet thickness of the boards as well as the extent of deformation.
- the boards 1, 2, 3, 4 only aligned with each other without fixation by welding points or the like can be positioned on each other.
- the reinforcing boards are arranged side by side and adjacent to each other on the motherboard. Their position and dimensions depend on the desired local stiffness to be achieved. They reinforcing boards can therefore each, for example, have different thicknesses and / or different thicknesses of the reinforcing boards, possibly also by joining several reinforcing boards, achieved.
- the resulting composite board 6 is heated in an oven 7, as shown in FIG. 2 outlined.

- a glass material such as a sintered glass, can be advantageously used.
- the surface 10 of the motherboard and / or both the surface of the motherboard and the reinforcing boards can be provided with a surface coating, which also allows a connection with the reinforcing boards when heated, for example in the manner of a multi-component adhesive.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Halbwarm- oder Warmumformen von Blechen, insbesondere Platinen, in einem Umformwerkzeug, wobei auf eine Grundplatine zur partiellen Verstärkung ein oder mehrere Verstärkungsplatinen aufgebracht, die Grundplatine und die zumindest eine Verstärkungsplatine aufeinander fixiert und/oder durch geeignete Mittel zueinanderausgerichtet und die Grundplatine und die zumindest eine Verstärkungsplatine zusammen umgeformt werden.The invention relates to a method for hot or hot forming of sheets, in particular circuit boards, in a forming tool, wherein applied to a motherboard for partial reinforcement one or more reinforcing boards, the motherboard and the at least one reinforcing board fixed to each other and / or aligned by suitable means and the motherboard and the at least one reinforcing board are formed together.
Derartige Verfahren sind im Stand der Technik bekannt, insbesondere bei der Fertigung von Formteilen für Fahrzeuge. Gerade im Fahrzeugbereich besteht die grundsätzliche Anforderung, Teile möglichst gewichtsparend im Leichtbau auszugestalten. Hierdurch können der Kraftstoffverbrauch des Fahrzeugs gesenkt und dessen Handhabbarkeit sowie die Fahreigenschaften deutlich verbessert werden. Zugleich soll jedoch eine gute Stabilität der Fahrzeugteile sichergestellt werden, vorallem eine Crash-Stabilität. Für die partiell stark bei einem solchen Crash beanspruchten Formteile, wie beispielsweise Fahrzeugholme, ist es bekannt, diese stärker beanspruchten Stellen lokal verstärkt auszubilden. Eine solche lokale Verstärkung kann durch eine Querschnittsvergrößerung beispielsweise durch Aufdoppeln von Blechen erfolgen. Früher wurden das Grundblech und das Verstärkungsblech jeweils für sich allein tiefgezogen und nachfolgend zu einem vollständigen Strukturteil zusammengefügt. Da in den seltensten Fällen eine genaue Passform zwischen dem aufzufügenden geformten Verstärkungsblech und dem separat geformten Grundblech erzielt werden kann, entstehen beim Zusammenfügen solcher Formteile üblicherweise zumindest im Randbereich Spalte. In diese kann Feuchtigkeit eindringen und zu Korrosion führen. Dies ist jedoch besonders zu vermeiden, da die Aufdoppelungen gerade dort vorgesehen werden, wo eine Verstärkung des verwendeten Blechs erforderlich ist. Auftretende Korrosion führt jedoch zu einer Schwächung eines solchen Bereichs.Such methods are known in the art, especially in the manufacture of molded parts for vehicles. Especially in the vehicle sector, there is the fundamental requirement to design parts as lightweight as possible in lightweight construction. As a result, the fuel consumption of the vehicle can be reduced and its handling and driving characteristics can be significantly improved. At the same time, however, a good stability of the vehicle parts should be ensured, especially a crash stability. For the partially heavily loaded in such a crash moldings, such as vehicle uprights, it is known to locally strengthen these more stressed areas. Such a local reinforcement can be achieved by a cross-sectional enlargement, for example by doubling sheets. Previously, the base plate and the reinforcing plate were each deep-drawn by itself and subsequently assembled into a complete structural part. Since in the rarest cases, a precise fit between the aufzufügenden shaped reinforcing sheet and the separately shaped base plate can be achieved, arise when joining such moldings usually at least in the edge region gaps. In this moisture can penetrate and lead to corrosion. However, this is particularly to be avoided since the doublings are provided precisely where a reinforcement of the sheet used is required. Occurring corrosion, however, leads to a weakening of such an area.
Die
Da ein Tiefziehen als Kaltverformvorgang die Werkzeuge bei Aufdoppeln der tiefzuziehenden Bleche stark belastet, wird in der
Ein ähnliches Verfahren wie die
Aus der
Bei den vorstehend erörterten Verfahren zum Umformen von Blechen wird entweder kein Warmumformen und somit eine hohe und partiell unterschiedliche Belastung des Tiefziehwerkzeugs vorgesehen oder eine Warmumformung, die jedoch aufgrund der Verwendung eines flächendeckenden Aufbringens eines Hartlots sich als mühsam erweist, wenn es in Pastenform aufgebracht wird, einer genauen Dosierung und Positionierung bedarf, wenn es aufgesprüht, aufgestreut oder in Form von Spänen aufgelegt wird oder in Form einer Lötfolie aufgebracht wird, wobei bei einer solchen auch ein vorheriger genauer Zuschnitt erforderlich ist. Das Vorsehen einer Tasche bzw. eines Hohlraums für ein Glas-Zwischenelement oder eine Glasmatte weist den Nachteil auf, dass einerseits ein solcher Hohlraum geschaffen werden muss, andererseits die Glasmatte, wenn sie nicht die Abmessungen des Verstärkungsblechs aufweist, das Eindringen von Feuchtigkeit an ihren Rändern zulässt und somit eine Korrosion der verwendeten Bleche.The sheet forming processes discussed above provide either no hot working and thus high and partially differential stress on the thermoforming tool, or hot working, which, however, is cumbersome when applied in paste form due to the use of blanket brazing application. precise metering and positioning when sprayed on, sprinkled or applied in the form of chips or applied in the form of a solder foil is, where in such a prior accurate blank is required. The provision of a pocket or a cavity for a glass intermediate element or a glass mat has the disadvantage that on the one hand such a cavity must be created, on the other hand, the glass mat, if it does not have the dimensions of the reinforcing plate, allows the penetration of moisture at their edges and thus corrosion of the sheets used.
Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt nun die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Verfahren zum Warmumformen von Blechen bzw. Platinen vorzusehen, das die vorstehend genannten Nachteile nicht aufweist und die Herstellung von Formteilen in Leichtbauweise mit für eine partielle höhere Beanspruchung vorgesehener Verstärkung ermöglicht, wobei gegenüber dem vorstehenden Stand der Technik ein noch effektiverer Korrosionsschutz in Verbindung mit einem sicheren Verbinden von Grundplatine und Verstärkungsplatine(n) ermöglicht werden soll.The present invention is an object of the invention to provide a method for hot forming of sheets or boards, which does not have the disadvantages mentioned above and allows the production of moldings in lightweight construction with provided for a partial higher stress reinforcement, with respect to the above Technique for even more effective corrosion protection in conjunction with a secure connection of motherboard and reinforcement board (s) is to be made possible.
Gemäß Anspruch 1 wird die Aufgabe für ein Verfahren der eingangs genannten Art dadurch gelöst, dass die Grundplatine und die zumindest eine Verstärkungsplatine nach dem Umformen vereinzelt, mit zumindest einer Verbindungsschicht versehen und wieder zusammengefügt werden. Nach Anspruch 5 wird die Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, dass auf die zumindest eine Verstärkungsplatine vor dem Halbwarm- oder Warmumformvorgang eine Oberflächenbeschichtung zum Bilden einer bzw. als Verbindungsschicht aufgebracht wird, wobei die Oberflächenbeschichtung während des Halbwarm- oder Warmumformens schmilzt und eine Verbindung zwischen der Grundplatine und der zumindest einen Verstärkungsplatine bildet.According to
Für ein Strukturteil nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 15 wird die Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, dass eine Verbindungsschicht zwischen einer geformten Grundplatine und zumindest einer Verstärkungsplatine in Form eines Klebstoff und/oder geschmolzenen und erstarrten Glaswerkstoffs vorgesehen ist, der die Grundplatine und die zumindest eine Verstärkungsplatine oder mehrere Verstärkungsplatinen dichtend miteinander verbindet, wobei die geformte Grundplatine und die zumindest eine geformte Verstärkungsplatine genau aufeinander passen unter Vermeidung von Spalten, und wobei die Verbindungsschicht aus einem dichtenden Schaumkleber, einer Materialfolie, insbesondere Haftkleberfolie, haftenden Faserverbundmatte, Silicon, Epoxidharzklebstoff, Polyurethanklebstoff, Schmelzklebstoff, PUR-Dispersionsklebstoff oder Sinterglas besteht. Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen definiert.For a structural part according to the preamble of claim 15, the object is achieved in that a connecting layer between a molded motherboard and at least one reinforcing plate in the form of an adhesive and / or molten and solidified glass material is provided, which is the motherboard and the at least one reinforcing board or more Reinforcing reinforcing plates sealingly together, wherein the molded motherboard and the at least one molded reinforcing plate fit together to avoid gaps, and wherein the connecting layer of a sealing foam adhesive, a material film, in particular pressure-sensitive adhesive film, adhesive fiber composite mat, silicone, epoxy resin adhesive, polyurethane adhesive, hot melt adhesive, PUR Dispersion adhesive or sintered glass. Further developments of the invention are defined in the dependent claims.
Dadurch wird ein Verfahren zum Halbwarm- oder Warmumformen von Blechen, insbesondere Platinen, geschaffen, bei dem die Vorteile eines gemeinsamen Umformens zu verbindender Platinen und des Halbwarm- oder Warmumformens mit denen einer optimalen Abdichtung und eines optimalen Verbindens der geformten Platinen kombiniert werden. Aufgrund der Verwendung eines gemeinsamen Halbwarm- oder Warmumformens von Grundplatine und Verstärkungsplatine(n) kann eine sehr gute Fertigungsgenauigkeit und Vermeidung von Spalten zwischen den umgeformten Platinen erzielt werden in Kombination mit dem Vorteil eines beliebig hohen Umformgrades, bedingt durch die Verwendung eines Halbwarm- oder Warmumformens im Gegensatz beispielsweise zu einem Kaltumformen wie dem Tiefziehen. Hierdurch können insbesondere die verwendeten Pressen-Werkzeuge geschont werden, sogar bei Verwendung nahezu beliebiger Materialstärken von Platinen und deren Kombination miteinander. Beim Halbwarmumformen werden niedrigere Temperaturen verwendet als beim Warmumformen, wodurch i.a. keine Materialhärtung erfolgt. Es können beispielsweise jedoch Hochfestmaterialien verwendet werden, die bereits hochfeste Eigenschaften aufweisen. In diesem Falle braucht lediglich eine Temperaturerhöhung in Bereiche zu erfolgen, die das Umformen erleichtern, insbesondere auf Temperaturen unterhalb 850°C, bevorzugt zwischen 500 und 730°C, besonders bevorzugt zwischen 500 und 700°C, insbesondere um die 650°C.This provides a process for hot or hot forging sheet metal, particularly blanks, which combines the advantages of co-forming blanks to be joined and hot or hot forging with those of optimum sealing and blending of the molded blanks. Due to the Using a common hot or hot forming of motherboard and reinforcing board (s) a very good manufacturing accuracy and avoidance of gaps between the formed blanks can be achieved in combination with the advantage of an arbitrarily high degree of deformation, due to the use of a hot or hot forging in contrast for example, to cold forming such as deep drawing. As a result, in particular the press tools used can be spared, even when using almost any material thicknesses of boards and their combination with each other. In warm forging, lower temperatures are used than in hot forming, which generally does not harden the material. However, for example, high-strength materials can be used which already have high-strength properties. In this case, only an increase in temperature in areas to facilitate the forming, especially at temperatures below 850 ° C, preferably between 500 and 730 ° C, more preferably between 500 and 700 ° C, in particular around 650 ° C.
Durch das erfindungsgemäße Vereinzeln der geformten Platinen nach dem Halbwarm- oder Warmumformen ist es möglich, eine geeignete Verbindungsschicht zwischen den geformten Teilen einzufügen und somit eine optimale Verbindung und Abdichtung von geformter Grundplatine und geformter bzw. geformten Verstärkungsplatine(n) sicherzustellen. Da das Vereinzeln bevorzugt im Anschluss an den Umformvorgang erfolgen kann, erweist sich insbesondere auch der Auftrag eines Heißklebers als sehr vorteilhaft, beispielsweise während der Abkühlphase der geformten Platinen innerhalb des Umformwerkzeugs. Es liegen seitens der geformten Platinen dann die für das Heißkleben geeigneten Temperaturen vor. Ebenso ist aber auch das Vereinzeln der geformten Platinen nach deren Abkühlen und das nachfolgende Aufbringen der zumindest einen Verbindungsschicht möglich. In diesem Falle ist die Auswahl der Verbindungsschicht beliebig. Beispielsweise kann auch eine dichtende und feuchtigkeitsabweisende Schaumkleberschicht, Materialfolie, insbesondere Haftkleberfolie, Matte, insbesondere haftende Faserverbundmatte etc. verwendet werden.By dicing the molded blanks according to the invention after hot or warm forming, it is possible to insert a suitable bonding layer between the molded parts and thus to ensure optimum bonding and sealing of molded motherboard and molded reinforcing board (s). Since the singulation can preferably take place after the forming process, the application of a hot-melt adhesive in particular also proves to be very advantageous, for example during the cooling phase of the shaped blanks within the forming tool. On the part of the molded blanks, the temperatures suitable for heat-bonding are present. Likewise, however, is also the separation of the molded boards after their cooling and the subsequent application of at least one connecting layer possible. In this case, the selection of the connection layer is arbitrary. For example, it is also possible to use a sealing and moisture-repellent foam adhesive layer, material film, in particular pressure-sensitive adhesive film, mat, in particular adhesive fiber composite mat, etc.
Vorzugsweise wird die Verbindungsschicht aus einem Mehrkomponentenklebstoff gebildet, dessen Komponenten auf der Oberfläche der Grundplatine und der zumindest einen Verstärkungsplatine bzw. den Oberflächen der Verstärkungsplatinen aufgebracht werden. Hierdurch kommt vorteilhaft eine Verbindung der Oberflächen der Platinen erst nach deren festem Zusammenfügen zustande. Hierbei erweist sich zumeist die Anwesenheit von Wärme für das schnelle Aushärten als vorteilhaft, weswegen die Oberflächen der miteinander zu verbindenden Platinen bereits vor dem vollständigen Abkühlen derselben mit dem Mehrkomponentenklebstoff versehen und miteinander verbunden werden können.Preferably, the bonding layer is formed from a multicomponent adhesive whose components are applied to the surface of the motherboard and the at least one reinforcing board or surfaces of the reinforcing boards. As a result, advantageously a connection of the surfaces of the boards only after their firm assembly. In this case, the presence of heat for rapid curing usually proves to be advantageous, which is why the surfaces of the boards to be joined together can already be provided with the multi-component adhesive prior to complete cooling and joined together.
Bei einer einfacheren, gut wieder trennbaren Formgebung der Platinen des zu erstellenden Formteils erweist sich das Vereinzeln der umgeformten Platinen als vorteilhaft. Bei komplexeren Formgebungen, insbesondere bei Vorsehen von Hinterschneidungen, die ein nachfolgendes Vereinzeln der geformten Platinen erschweren, erweist es sich hingegen als vorteilhaft, die geformten Platinen nicht wieder trennen zu müssen. Um dies zu ermöglichen, kann auf die zumindest eine Verstärkungsplatine eine Oberflächenbeschichtung zum Bilden einer bzw. als Verbindungsschicht aufgebracht werden. Vorzugsweise wird die Oberflächenbeschichtung vor dem Halbwarm- oder Warmumformvorgang auf die zumindest eine Verstärkungsplatine aufgetragen, wobei die Oberflächenbeschichtung während des Umformens schmilzt und eine Verbindung zwischen der Grundplatine und der zumindest einen Verstärkungsplatine bildet. Hierdurch ist es vorteilhaft möglich, dass bereits während des Umformens der Platinen diese miteinander verbunden werden. Durch das Beschichten insbesondere der Verstärkungsplatine(n) ist eine optimale und gleichmäßige Verbindung mit der Grundplatine bis an den Rand der Verstärkungsplatine heran und ggf. von einzelnen Verstärkungsplatinen aufeinander möglich. Hierdurch kann ein vollflächiges Verbinden der Platinen bis in den Randbereich der Verstärkungsplatine(n) sogar bei sehr komplexen Formgebungen erzielt werden. Ein zusätzliches Aufbringen einer Dichtmittelwulst im Randbereich der zumindest einen Verstärkungsplatine ist daher nicht mehr erforderlich, kann jedoch, falls dies gewünscht wird, dennoch vorgesehen werden.In a simpler, easily re-separable shaping of the blanks of the molded part to be created, the separation of the formed blanks proves to be advantageous. In the case of more complex shapes, in particular when providing undercuts which make subsequent separation of the shaped boards more difficult, it proves advantageous, however, not to have to separate the formed boards again. In order to make this possible, a surface coating for forming a connecting layer can be applied to the at least one reinforcing plate. Preferably, the surface coating is applied to the at least one reinforcing board prior to the hot or warm forming operation, whereby the surface coating melts during forming and forms a bond between the surface Motherboard and the at least one reinforcing board forms. As a result, it is advantageously possible that these are already connected to each other during the forming of the boards. By coating, in particular, the reinforcing plate (s) is an optimal and uniform connection with the motherboard up to the edge of the reinforcing board approaching and possibly of individual reinforcing boards to each other possible. In this way, a full-surface connection of the boards can be achieved up to the edge region of the reinforcing board (s) even with very complex shapes. An additional application of a sealant bead in the edge region of the at least one reinforcing plate is therefore no longer necessary, but may, if desired, nevertheless be provided.
Die Verbindungsschicht in Form einer Oberflächenbeschichtung der zumindest einen Verstärkungsplatine kann sich auch als Oberflächenbeschichtung, die nach dem Halbwarm- oder Warmumformen auf die vereinzelten geformten Platinen aufgebracht wird, als vorteilhaft erweisen. In diesem Falle kann als Beschichtungsmaterial ein beliebiges Haft- und/oder Dichtmittel, beispielsweise ein Klebstoff, wie ein Silicon, insbesondere Epoxidharzklebstoff, Polyurethanklebstoff, Schmelzklebstoff, PUR-Dispersionsklebstoff, etc., verwendet werden. Die Beschichtung kann beispielsweise durch Aufrollen, Tauchen, Drucken, Gummieren etc. erfolgen.The bonding layer in the form of a surface coating of the at least one reinforcing board may also prove to be advantageous as a surface coating applied to the singulated formed boards after hot or warm forming. In this case, any adhesive and / or sealant, for example an adhesive, such as a silicone, in particular epoxy resin adhesive, polyurethane adhesive, hot melt adhesive, PUR dispersion adhesive, etc., can be used as the coating material. The coating can be done, for example, by rolling, dipping, printing, gumming, etc.
Die Verbindungsschicht kann die Oberfläche der Verstärkungsplatine(n) vollständig bedecken. Sie kann aber auch als Muster oder Maske auf der Oberfläche der zumindest einen Verstärkungsplatine und/oder der Grundplatine ausgebildet sein, insbesondere den Randbereich der Verstärkungsplatine im Wesentlichen lückenlos umgebend. Teilweise ist es nicht unbedingt erforderlich, die gesamte Oberfläche des/der Verstärkungsplatine(n) mit der jeweiligen Verbindungsschicht zu versehen, da eine Verbindung der geformten Platinen schon durch deren Formgebung unterstützt wird und ein Abdichten lediglich im Randbereich der Verstärkungsplatine(n) zum Korrosionsschutz zweckmäßig ist. Bei der Wahl des Musters oder der Maske wird diese(s) vorteilhaft an die auf das fertige Formteil im Betrieb einwirkenden Kräfte abgestimmt, so dass ein ungewolltes Lösen der Platinen voneinander vermieden werden kann.The tie layer may completely cover the surface of the reinforcing board (s). However, it can also be formed as a pattern or mask on the surface of the at least one reinforcing plate and / or the motherboard, in particular surrounding the edge region of the reinforcing board substantially gapless. Sometimes it is not absolutely necessary to cover the entire surface of the Reinforcement board (s) to be provided with the respective connection layer, since a compound of the molded boards is already supported by the shaping and sealing only in the edge region of the reinforcing board (s) for corrosion protection is appropriate. In the choice of the pattern or the mask, this (s) is advantageously matched to the forces acting on the finished molding during operation, so that unintentional release of the boards can be avoided from each other.
Vorzugsweise besteht die Verbindungsschicht aus einem als Beschichtung auf der Grundplatine und/oder der zumindest einen Verstärkungsplatine aufgetragenen Glaswerkstoff und/oder Klebstoff, der während des Umformvorgangs aufschmilzt und beim Abkühlen eine feste Verbindung zwischen Grundplatine und Verstärkungsplatine(n) bildet. Durch das Warmumformen schmilzt der insbesondere dünn aufgetragene Glaswerkstoff und bildet auf dem/den Verstärkungsblech(en) einen klebenden Überzug. Ähnlich wie bei einer Emailleschicht kann beim Abkühlen eine feste Verbindung zwischen den aneinander liegenden Platinenoberflächen entstehen. Ein Korrosionsschutz wird dabei ebenso ermöglicht wie eine feste Verbindung der geformten Platinen. Im Gegensatz zu dem Vorsehen von Glas-Zwischenelementen in Hohlräumen zwischen einem Grundblech und einem Verstärkungsblech, wie in der
Bei vorteilhaftem Vorsehen eines Halbwarmumformens von mit einer Verbindungsschicht versehenen Grundplatine und zumindest einer Verstärkungsplatine zusammen kann als Verbindungsschicht insbesondere ein Klebstoff verwendet werden. Dieser kann während des Umformvorgangs aufschmelzen, beim Abkühlen erhärten und eine feste Verbindung zwischen Grundplatine und der zumindest einen Verstärkungsplatine bilden.In an advantageous provision of a warm forging of base plate provided with a connecting layer and at least one reinforcing plate together, in particular an adhesive can be used as the connecting layer. This can melt during the forming process, harden on cooling and form a firm connection between the motherboard and the at least one reinforcing board.
Bevorzugt ist bei einem nach dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren hergestellten Strukturteil eine Verbindungsschicht zwischen einer geformten Grundplatine und zumindest einer Verstärkungsplatine in Form eines Klebstoffs und/oder geschmolzenen und erstarrten Glaswerkstoffs vorgesehen, der die Grundplatine und die zumindest eine Verstärkungsplatine und/oder mehrere Verstärkungsplatinen miteinander verbindet.Preferably, in a structural part produced by the method according to the invention, a connecting layer is provided between a shaped motherboard and at least one reinforcing board in the form of an adhesive and / or molten and solidified glass material, which connects the motherboard and the at least one reinforcing board and / or several reinforcing boards.
Bevorzugt wird eine Verstärkungsplatine auf der Grundplatine angeordnet und fixiert und/oder durch geeignete Mittel zu dieser ausgerichtet oder werden mehrere Verstärkungsplatinen neben- und/oder übereinander auf der Grundplatine angeordnet und fixiert und/oder durch geeignete Mittel zueinander und/oder zu der Grundplatine ausgerichtet. Besonders bevorzugt wird bei Vorsehen nur einer Verstärkungsplatine diese auf der Grundplatine angeordnet und fixiert und/oder durch geeignete Mittel zu dieser ausgerichtet oder bei Vorsehen mehrerer Verstärkungsplatinen werden diese einander in einem Teilbereich überlappend und/oder aneinander anstoßend und/oder mit Abstand zueinander auf der Grundplatine fixiert und/oder durch geeignete Mittel zueinander ausgerichtet. Durch das Vorsehen mehrerer Verstärkungsplatinen nebeneinander mit und ohne Abstand zueinander können Spannungen innerhalb eines geformten Werkstücks bzw. Blechstrukturteils vermieden bzw. zumindest reduziert, und Steifigkeitserhöhungen gezielt durchgeführt werden, insbesondere bei Vorsehen unterschiedlicher Material stärken bei Grundplatine und Verstärkungsplatine(n). Durch Vorsehen mehrerer Verstärkungsplatinen übereinander können zusätzlich weitere Materialverstärkungen und somit stark unterschiedliche Steifigkeiten über die Oberfläche des Strukturteils hinweg erzielt werden. Durch das Überlappen mehrerer Verstärkungsplatinen in ihren jeweiligen Randbereichen können ebenfalls Steifigkeitsunterschiede erzeugt werden. Es kann jeweils jedoch auch nur eine Verstärkungsplatine vorgesehen werden, die ggf. zuvor aus mehreren Teilen insbesondere unterschiedlicher Materialstärke zusammengesetzt wurde. Anstelle des Vorsehens einer Fixierung bzw. Verbindung der Platinen untereinander vor dem Umformvorgang ist es ebenso möglich, die Platinen lediglich zueinander ausgerichtet aufeinander zu positionieren und ohne eine Verbindung miteinander umzuformen. Zur Lagefixierung bzw. zum Aufrechterhalten der gegenseitigen Positionierung können insbesondere Stehbolzen oder dergleichen Einrichtungen besonders bevorzugt in dem Umformwerkzeug bzw. der Umformpresse vorgesehen werden.Preferably, a reinforcing board is arranged on the motherboard and fixed and / or aligned by suitable means to this or several reinforcing boards next to and / or one above the other on the motherboard and fixed and / or aligned by suitable means to each other and / or to the motherboard. Particularly preferred is provided with the provision of only one gain board on the motherboard and fixed and / or aligned by suitable means to this or providing multiple reinforcing boards these are overlapping and / or abutting each other in a partial area and / or spaced from each other on the motherboard fixed and / or aligned with each other by suitable means. By providing multiple reinforcement boards Side by side with and without distance to each other stresses within a shaped workpiece or sheet metal structural part can be avoided or at least reduced, and stiffness increases are selectively carried out, especially when providing different material strengthen motherboard and reinforcement board (s). By providing a plurality of reinforcement boards one above the other, additional material reinforcements and thus greatly differing stiffnesses can be achieved over the surface of the structural part. By overlapping a plurality of reinforcement boards in their respective edge regions, stiffness differences can also be generated. However, in each case only one reinforcing plate can be provided, which if necessary was previously composed of several parts, in particular of different material thickness. Instead of providing a fixation or connection of the boards with each other before the forming process, it is also possible to position the boards only aligned with each other and without forming a connection with each other. To fix the position or to maintain the mutual positioning, stud bolts or the like may be particularly preferably provided in the forming tool or the forming press.
Bevorzugt werden die Verstärkungsplatinen aneinander anstoßend vor dem Umformvorgang miteinander verbunden, insbesondere durch Anbringen einer Schweißnaht oder anderen Verbindungsnaht. Je nach Umformtemperatur und Umformmodus kann diese Stoßnaht beim Umformen egalisiert werden, so dass keine unebenen Übergangsstellen verbleiben.Preferably, the reinforcing boards are connected to each other abutting each other before the forming process, in particular by attaching a weld or other connecting seam. Depending on the forming temperature and forming mode, this butt seam can be leveled during forming, so that no uneven transition points remain.
Vorzugsweise werden die Platinen vor dem Halbwarm- oder Warmumformen und/oder nach dem Halbwarm- oder Warmumformen durch Zusatzverbindungen aneinander fixiert, insbesondere durch Schweißen, Nieten, Durchsetzfügen oder ein anderes Verbindungsverfahren. Hierdurch wird besonders vor dem Umformen die eindeutige Position der gezielt an bestimmten Stellen auf der Oberfläche der Grundplatine aufgebrachten Verstärkungsplatine(n) fixiert, so dass sich diese während des Umformens im Wesentlichen nicht ändert. Nach dem Umformen erweist sich eine Fixierung gerade bei sich ansonsten durch Abscheren ggf. leicht lösenden Verbindungen zwischen Grundplatine und Verstärkungsplatine(n) als vorteilhaft, da besonders eine zusätzliche punktförmige Verbindung einem ungewollten Abscheren entgegenwirken kann.The blanks are preferably fixed to one another by means of additional connections prior to hot or warm forming and / or after semi-hot or hot forming, in particular by welding, riveting, clinching or another connection method. As a result, especially before the forming, the unique position of the reinforcing plate (s) applied selectively at certain locations on the surface of the motherboard is fixed so that it does not substantially change during the forming process. After reshaping, a fixation proves to be advantageous in itself otherwise by shearing off possibly easily releasing connections between motherboard and reinforcement board (s), since especially an additional punctiform connection can counteract unwanted shearing.

Nach dem Vereinzeln der geformten Platinen werden diese auf den zueinander gerichteten Oberflächen mit einer Verbindungsschicht 11 versehen, beispielsweise mit einer Kleberschicht und/oder einem Dichtmittel, das vorzugsweise auch ein Verbinden bzw. Haften der Oberflächen aneinander ermöglicht. Die drei Verstärkungsplatinen können entweder auf einer gemeinsamen Verbindungsschicht aufgebracht werden oder auf separaten Verbindungsschichten. Anschließend werden die geformten Verstärkungsplatinen 2, 3, 4 wieder auf die geformte Grundplatine 1 aufgefügt, wobei eine zumindest haftende Verbindung zwischen den Oberflächen der Platinen nun durch die Verbindungsschicht erzielt wird. Die Verbindungsschicht weist vorzugsweise eine solche Dicke auf, dass die Passgenauigkeit der gemeinsam verformten Platinen nicht gefährdet ist. Sie legt sich insbesondere so zwischen die Platinen, dass eine optimale im Wesentlichen spaltfreie Passgenauigkeit sichergestellt ist. Das Auffügen der geformten Verstärkungsplatinen 2, 3, 4 ist in
Um die Verbindung zwischen der Grundplatine und den Verstärkungsplatinen noch zusätzlich zu verstärken, können wiederum Verbindungsstellen in Form von z.B. Schweißpunkten, Nieten, etc. vorgesehen werden. Je nach der Wahl der verwendeten Verbindungsschicht kann jedoch grundsätzlich dies zusätzliche Verbinden auch entfallen.In order to further strengthen the connection between the motherboard and the reinforcing boards, in turn, joints in the form of e.g. Welding points, rivets, etc. are provided. Depending on the choice of the connection layer used, however, in principle this additional connection can also be omitted.
Die geformten Verstärkungsplatinen dienen z.B. als Innenverstärkung, die geformte Grundplatine als Außenverstärkung einer Fahrzeug-B-Säule.The shaped reinforcing boards serve e.g. as internal reinforcement, the molded motherboard as external reinforcement of a vehicle B-pillar.

Während des Vergütens des Platinenmaterials wird die Verbindungsschicht 12 abgekühlt und härtet dabei aus. Eventuell bei der Formgebung verbleibende oder entstehende Spalte zwischen Grundplatine und Verstärkungsplatinen werden durch die Verbindungsschicht ausgefüllt, wodurch eine dichte Einheit zum Schutz vor Korrosion geschaffen werden kann. Zusätzlich zu den bereits bestehenden und während des Halbwarm-oder Warmumformens verbliebenen Verbindungsstellen in Form von z.B.During annealing of the board material, the
Schweißpunkten, können noch weitere oder diese ggf. erneut zum zusätzlichen Verbinden der geformten Platinen aufeinander vorgesehen werden. Grundsätzlich kann jedoch bereits durch die Kombination aus den vor dem Umformen aufgebrachten fixierenden Verbindungsstellen und der Verbindungsschicht ein ausreichend fester Halt der geformten Platinen aufeinander sichergestellt werden.Welding points, even more or these may be again provided for additional connection of the molded boards to each other. In principle, however, it is already possible to ensure a sufficiently firm hold of the molded blanks on one another by the combination of the fixing connecting points applied before forming and the connecting layer.
