Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method and a tool for crimping a workpiece by means of a crimping member, which is pressed against a flange of the workpiece pushing along the flange forward and thereby progressively flipping the flange in the advancing direction, according to the preamble of claim 1 and 8.
  • the workpiece may in particular be a sheet metal part.
  • roll flanging In industrial manufacturing, for example, the mass production of automobiles, roll flanging is gaining in importance.
  • roll crimping especially crimp connections can be generated, for example, a rabbet joint between an outer skin part of a vehicle and an inner part.
  • Roll flanging is a roll fold in this particular application.
  • roll crimping not only seaming can be created, but also projecting flanges for other types of joining or completely unalloyed flared flanges to create round flanged edges or even partially folded flanges for other purposes.
  • Beading with a flanging member, such as roll flanging, departing from the flange to be folded, has the advantage of lower investment costs and greater flexibility with regard to the multidimensional course of the flanging edge, compared with conventional edge bending, bending or drawing in a press.
  • roll flanging in relation to the course of the flanged edge.
  • the flanging edge tends to distortions in such a flaring operation to the inside.
  • Another problem is the degree of deformation achievable during roll crimping.
  • the angle by which the flange can be folded in a crimping step, ie in a single run of the crimping member is limited to a range of about 30 ° to 45 °. If the flange by 90 ° or larger angles, for example, completely folded over by 180 °, successively several, successive building
  • Crimping steps required Methods and apparatuses for beading workpieces, in particular in a plurality of crimping steps, for example, in the EP 1 420 908 B1 , of the EP 1 685 915 B1 and the EP 0 802 001 B1 described.

  • a flange of a workpiece by means of a flange departing Bördelglieds cleanly, so that a contour-consistent, warpage-free flanged edge is obtained.
  • the invention is based on a method and a tool in which a flanging member rotating about an axis of rotation moves along a flange of the workpiece in a propelling direction, pressing a face pressure surface of the crimping member against the flange during the propelling motion with a compressive force, and pressing the flange by the pressing end pressure surface and a circumferential around this peripheral edge of the crimping in the advancing direction progresses, preferably continuously advancing, is folded around a pointing in the advancing direction flanging edge.
  • the flange may already bend from an adjacent to the flange strip with a slope, so that even before flanging a flanged edge or at least an edge-like curve is present, along which the flanging is moved when flanging the invention.
  • the invention is particularly suitable for flanging, by which the flanged edge is generated for the first time ever.
  • the flange to be folded can therefore extend the adjacent strip of the workpiece with a smooth or even curvature compared to the flanging edge to be created, as is the case in preferred applications.
  • the axis of rotation of the crimping member during beading is at least substantially orthogonal to the folded flange, so that the crimping member does not roll on the flange as in the case of roll crimping, but slides with the end pressure surface over the flange.
  • the relative movement, which performs the crimping member with its end pressure surface in pressure contact with the flange relative to this, is at least substantially a sliding movement.

  • the flanged edge of a wheel arch can not only curve around the wheel axle, ie be curved in the side view of the respective motor vehicle, but also be curved in relation to a vertical plane pointing perpendicular to the wheel axle in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, namely either inwards or but to the outside. If the crimping edge is curved inwardly, a crimping roller can be used with a flat and exactly orthogonal to the axis of rotation of the crimping roller facing end pressure surface readily.
