Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method and a device for producing a cutout or opening in the wall of a formed by the hydroforming process component, such as hollow body, which is still in the forming tool, with subsequent fine machining of the surface.
  • apertures or cutouts can also be carried out from the inside to the outside (DE 1 552 122 A1), in that the wall is broken or cut out by increasing the internal pressure into a tool recess, wherein a outwardly displaceable support punch is provided in the tool recess can be.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object to provide a method and an apparatus of the aforementioned type, which avoids the difficulties outlined above and in which the measures described above or the like unnecessary.
  • the stated object is achieved in a method of the type mentioned in that initially the wall of the stored in the forming tool and fixed by sealing stamp and positioned starting work piece with the aid of a punch is abruptly pre-cut to a residual wall thickness.
  • the sudden action of the punch is realized by a distance between the upper part of the punch and Hydrozy-. This distance serves to avoid the acceleration section of the hydraulic cylinder.
  • the punch is withdrawn to the lateral surface of the tool.
  • the sealing dies push the exit piece to a new position to change the shape of the starting work piece, i. H. Elongation in the hydroforming, to compensate and the precut area, i. the breaking point relative to the punch to position accurately.
  • the internal pressure increases, and during the forming process, the cutting process of the cut-outs from the component is carried out according to known methods described above, from outside to inside and / or from inside to outside.
  • the pre-cut part of the wall of the component d. H. the predetermined breaking point previously generated by the embossing edge of the punch, easily and cleanly separated by abrupt and / or multiple movements of the punch between the lower and upper dead centers.
  • a complete substructure is carried out by the above-described non-cutting shaping in order to prevent inclination, edge and ridge formation of the cut and to bring in a certain shape contour having breakthroughs or cutouts.
  • This operation is by means of axial movements of the workpiece by means of the sealing stamp and vertical movements of the punch, which has a corresponding engraving in its front and / or side surface realized.
  • a fine machining of the surface of the component is performed.
  • This fine machining of the surface of the component is realized during the removal process from the tool by cold drawing of the workpiece by a drawing ring mounted in the tool by means of simultaneous axial displacement and rotation of the workpiece by the sealing punch.
  • the combined internal high pressure and non-cutting shaping method according to the invention makes it possible to perform any breakthroughs and cutouts on the workpiece and a fine machining of the surface of the component with high accuracy in a single combined forming, punching, bending, Einsenk-, Ziehräumwerkmaschine.
  • this method can be carried out by appropriate joint control of the internal high pressure, the feed, dead play and the speed of the punch, the Nachschiebung and axial position of the output piece and the axial feed, the shift and rotation of the workpiece practically in one operation.
  • FIG. 1 shows a longitudinal section through a device for carrying out the method.
  • Fig. 2 is a cross-section through the device of Fig. 2;
  • FIGs 3, 6, 11, 14 and 19 are the longitudinal sections through the apparatus of Figure 1 in different stages.
  • Fig. 5 is an enlarged partial cross section through the device
  • Fig. 21 is a diagram explaining the operation of the device.
  • Fig. 1 shows a longitudinal section of an apparatus for carrying out the method
  • Fig. 2 shows a cross section of such a device in a starting position at the beginning of the method.
  • the device or the tool has a tool 1, in which the workpiece 2, in particular a holding tube for a headrest of vehicle seats is inserted.
  • the workpiece 2 is acted upon by sealing stamps 3, 4 end.
  • Via an opening 5 the fluid for performing the hydroforming can be introduced into the hollow workpiece 2.
  • the openings or cutouts in the wall of the workpiece 2 are introduced by means of punch punches 8, 10, act on the hydraulic cylinder 6, 7.
  • the punches are held by yokes 9, 11 with bearing areas 12, 14, which are adjustable in height adjustable.
  • a die 17 or a drawing ring is arranged on the side of the tool on which the workpiece is introduced or removed. Furthermore, one or two part-circular grooves 22 are introduced into the punches 8, 10, which serve to edge straightening of the introduced apertures or cutouts.
  • a first step the workpiece 2 positioned by the sealing rams 3 is pre-cut by the punches 8, 10 in an impact-like or jerky manner.
  • the punch 10 which then causes a complete cutout, the yoke 11 is further extended, so that there is a smaller distance ⁇ ⁇ . A push is going through
  • FIGS. 4 and 5 show enlargements for this purpose. The impact introduces a pre-damage into the material.
  • FIGS. 7-10 illustrate the subsequent cutting process under the influence of the interior elevation. pressure.
  • the displaceable punch moves from outside to inside (FIGS. 8, 9) or from inside to outside (FIGS. 7, 10).
  • the wall of the workpiece 2 applies to the inside 24,25 of the tool.
  • Cutting edges 26, 27 are formed on the cutouts or averages.
  • a subsequent method step which serves for edge aftertreatment or for introducing openings or cutouts with a specific shape contour.
  • the punch 8, 10 with the cut sheet 28 or formed sheet metal portion 31 is further guided in the direction of travel in the tool, so that the edge portions 29, 30 of the cutouts or openings are aligned with the engraved groove 22 in the punch head.
  • the sealing rams 3, 4 are moved axially and in this way the possibly deformed by the cutting process edges straightened by the forced movement into the grooves 22.
  • Such reciprocation and the effects of straightening the edge portions (29, 30, 32) are apparent from Figs. 14-18.
  • the surface calibration is then followed by a drawing process.
  • the formed workpiece 2 is pulled through the die 17 under preferably simultaneous rotations and, due to the drawing ring, is straightened with regard to its mantle surface 33.
  • the process sequence is finally shown with the aid of FIGS. 21-27.
  • the workpiece 2 is received by the sealing dies 3, 4 and positioned by axial movement in the tool.
  • puncture acting punch 8, 10 a pre-damage is introduced into the wall.
  • increasing the internal pressure then follows by sudden and / or multiple movement of the punch the actual cut-out or average.
  • the edges are forced by axial movement of the workpiece in an engraved groove 22 in the punch. This is followed by the calibration process with subsequent removal of the workpiece.
  • Fig. 28 shows the velocities of the respective punch, as they result from the individual distances ⁇ i ⁇ 2 between the upper part of the punch and the hydraulic cylinders.
