Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for deep drawing metal sheet by means of a press, a table, a drawing die, and a drawing die and cooperating with the drawing die counter-pressure plate, which together form a flow path for the metal sheet, wherein at least one relative to the platen movable drawing strip across the flow path of the metal sheet is pushed to redirect the metal sheet during a drawing phase - first deflection - and the pull bar for a stop phase is pushed another piece across the flow path - second deflection -, wherein during the second deflection a further increased deflection the flow of the metal sheet 8, and wherein the metal sheet is substantially plastically deformed at the end of the deep drawing operation.
  • the flow path is a drawing gap formed between the drawing die and the counterpressure plate.
  • the metal sheet slips through this drawing gap, being inhibited by the pressure of the counter-pressure plate.
  • the invention relates to a deep-drawing device for metal sheets with a table, a drawing punch, a press, a drawing die, a counter-pressure plate, a plurality of pull strips, which are mounted parallel to the pressing direction with the press movable in the counter-pressure plate, and provided with at the edge of the draw die Ziehrillen, in which the drawbars are gradually hineinbewegbar while maintaining a drawing gap, wherein for the purpose of stepwise deformation of the metal sheet a drawing phase is provided, during which the metal sheet receives a draw bead with low bead depth and at least one stop phase is provided during the Metal sheet receives a stop bead, which has a greater bead depth than the draw bead.
  • the counter-holding devices can be designed in various ways, preferably the counter-holding force is applied hydraulically or by spring force.
  • Press and retainer provide the forces needed for forming.
  • a deep drawing apparatus is needed which has individual forming tools, such as drawing dies and drawing dies, as well as individual means of controlling the flow of material.
  • a generic method for deep drawing metal sheets and a thermoforming device is from the US 6,276,185 B1 known.
  • the material flow is controlled with two pull strips, which are arranged symmetrically to a drawing punch.
  • the pull strips are pushed transversely into the flow path of the metal sheet to meter the flow of material.
  • This first deflection stage is maintained until the lower ends of the pull strips, which protrude freely from a counter-pressure plate, strike a table. From this point on the drawing strips are pushed further across the flow path of the metal sheet, whereby the flow process is further inhibited.
  • thermoforming device A disadvantage of this prior art is the lack of variability of the thermoforming device.
  • the known thermoforming device can be retrofitted or adjusted only with great effort, if the adjustment of the adjustment is necessary.
  • thermoforming device is from the DE 199 53 751 A1 known. This proposes pull bars to be moved via mechanical transmissions or hydraulic circuits, but it is not intended to push the pull bars for a pull phase and a stop phase in two steps across the flow path.
  • the from the DE 199 53 751 A1 Known measures to drive the pull strips are complicated and prone to damage and therefore appear especially for mass production, as z. B. present in the automotive industry, little suitable.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object to provide a method for deep drawing of metal sheets, which ensures an exact repeatable deflection of the flow path of the metal sheet during a drawing phase, with a simple and quick adjustability value is set to vary the degree of deflection, if a fine adjustment z. B. during wear of the tool or when changing the material properties is necessary.
  • the object is achieved by a generic method in which the required during the first deflection level degree of deflection is adjusted by means of an exchangeable spacer which is disposed between the platen and the pull bar and serves as a stop.
  • Pulling strips are usually arranged in sections around a metal sheet around and form a kind of frame that controls the pulling movement of the metal sheet. According to the new method, the extent to which the pull bar protrudes into the flow path of the metal sheet, set by a fixed stop. Since the spacer is very easily replaceable, that spacer can be changed if a different level is required by which the pull bar must traverse the flow path of the metal sheet.
  • thermoforming sheets in a simple manner, the commercial fluctuation of the material characteristics of thermoforming sheets or the deliberate change in the Material characteristics are compensated.
  • the pull bar according to the invention may be a one-piece or a multi-part pull bar, wherein the multi-part pull bar has a carrier and at least one drawing tool, which is exchangeably received in the carrier.
  • the pull bar is detachably mounted in the counter-pressure plate. It can be quickly removed in this way to replace the spacer arranged underneath.
  • spacers are provided with different distance measure, which can be used optionally. With each spacer an individual measure of the deflection of the metal sheet is achieved.
  • a development of the method provides that a pressure pin is provided between the table and pull bar, that the pressure pin is shorter than the distance between the table and pull bar during the drawing phase of each other, wherein the distance is reduced during the drawing phase and at the end of the drawing phase or Beginning of the stop phase of the pressure pin is clamped between the table and pull bar, whereby the pressure pin a compressive force in the moves movable pull bar and the pull bar is lifted from serving as a stop for the pull bar spacer, whereby the pull bar is moved to the second deflection.
  • the flow of the metal sheet in the flow path is delayed.
  • the second deflection stage can cause an inhibition of the drawing process, which is so great that the metal sheet is stopped by the deflection and is transformed only plastically by continuing the deep drawing process.
  • the second deflection phase starts sooner or later depends on the extension of the pressure bolt by the spacers.
  • a long pushpin is more likely to get caught between the table and the pull bar than a short pushpin. In this way, it can be set how long the drawing phase lasts and when the stopping phase begins, wherein the relative movement of the pressure pin always begins at the same time.
  • the end of the movement of the pull bar is reached when the counter-pressure plate has come into frictional contact with the table. This can be done by direct or indirect contact.
  • the proposed method uses a pull bar, which can be variably used by combination with different spacers to individually tune the degree of deflection of the metal sheet during the drawing phase. In this way, different bead depths can be achieved without using a separate drive that would have to control the bead depth.
  • the drive for the movement of the drawing strips from the first to the second deflection takes place by adhesion between the table, pressure pin and pull bar.
  • the stop phase begins, during which the pull bar is pushed further through the flow path of the metal sheet.
  • a generic deep-drawing device is further proposed, wherein according to the invention for the purpose of setting the bead depth of the pulling bead acting during the draw phase at least one replaceable spacer is provided, and that the spacer between the platen and the pull bar acts.
  • a pull bar may be a long tool, several spacers can be arranged side by side, which support the pull bar evenly. In this way, a bending of the pull bar is avoided.
  • thermoforming device is further designed to allow a rapid conversion for the purpose of producing different drawn parts, the depth of which must be adjusted individually. It is important to arrange the distance to be exchanged for adjustment easily accessible between the removable pull bar and the counter-pressure plate.
  • inventive solution emphasizes the robustness of the device.
  • the proposed way of controlling the movement of the pull bar is very low maintenance and easy to use and compared to that from the DE 199 53 751 A1 known fault-prone Ziehelfn thoroughlyung particularly reliable.
  • a pressure pin is arranged and is with the pressure pin a compressive force between the table and the pull bar transferable.
  • the pushpin is easily removable after removal of the pull bar for conversion to another drawn part to be produced. He can be replaced with a pressure pin, which has a different length.
  • thermoforming device is designed so that the pressure pin is clamped during the stop phase between the table and pull bar and pressure-free during the drawing phase, because the distance between the table and pull bar during the drawing phase is greater than the length of the pressure bolt.
  • the inventive combination of spacer and pressure pin the total path that the drawing die is pressed onto the punch can be variably divided into a drawing phase and a stopping phase.
  • thermoforming device can be further improved if at least one spacer element is provided, which is arranged in addition to the pressure pin between the table and the drawing strip.
  • the spacer element is connected in series with the table, the pressure pin and the drawing strip, and is desirably arranged so that it is easily accessible and replaceable without much effort. In this way, if the stop phase is to be changed, to dispense with an exchange of the pressure bolt. Alternatively, the spacer is replaced to vary the stop phase.
  • the spacer element may be a spacer with a fixed distance measure. In this case, individual spacers are provided with different distance measure for different drawn parts made of different materials.
  • an adjustable distance device may be provided, which does not need to be replaced, because the Distanzread the distance device is variable.
  • an eccentric may be provided or a few spacer wedges, which allow by shifting against each other a variable distance dimension of the spacer device.
  • the pressure pin is simply axially movably mounted in the counter-pressure plate, namely movable parallel to the pressing direction of the press.
  • a pressure pin has at the end facing the pull bar on a radially projecting retaining collar whose diameter is larger as a bearing bore of the counter-pressure plate, in which the pressure pin is straight. In this way, the pressure pin is suspended in the counter-pressure plate. The pressure pin can be moved from this position in the counter-pressure plate in the direction of the pull bar. This happens when the lower end of the pressure pin strikes the table, namely a direct or indirect adhesion to the table is formed.
  • a further improvement provides that at least one spacer element between the table and the pull bar is arranged at both ends of the pressure bolt.
  • spacers that are stepped in increments of 1 mm can be combined with other spacers that have stepped spacers in increments of 0.5 mm.
  • the grading of spacers may also be much finer than steps of 0.5 mm and substantially coarser than steps of 1 mm.
