Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Stanzanordnung mit einem Stanzstempel und einer Halteplatte für den Stanzstempel und dessen Verwendung.The invention relates to a punching arrangement with a punch and a holding plate for the punch and its use.

Stanzstempel werden eingesetzt in sogenannten "Prog Dies" und "Stufenpressen". Diese Art von Werkzeugen arbeiten als Bausätze mit unter Umständen mehreren Schwesterwerkzeugen in Stufenpressen mit hoher Stanzkraft. Haupteinsatzgebiet derartiger Stanzstempel ist der Automobilbau, insbesondere der Bau von Chassis und Karosserie.Punching dies are used in so-called "prog dies" and "progressive presses". These types of tools work as kits with possibly several sister tools in high pressure punch presses. Main field of application of such punches is the automotive industry, in particular the construction of chassis and body.

Stanzstempel dieser Art sind bekannt aus z. B. US 3494033 A .Punches of this type are known from z. B. US 3494033 A ,

Ein derartiges "Prog Die" kleiner bis mittlerer Größe weist Außenmaße von ca. 1 600 mm x 1 200 mm auf, mit einer Vielzahl von Formstempeln, beispielsweise ungefähr 20 Formstempeln. Hierbei sind Stanzstempel in aller Regel räumlich eng beieinander angeordnet, umgeben von Rohrleitungen, die zur Überwachung der Drücke von eingebauten Gasdruckfedern mittels im Werkzeug eingebauter Manometer dienen.Such a "prog die" small to medium size has external dimensions of about 1 600 mm x 1 200 mm, with a variety of dies, for example, about 20 mold punches. Here, punches are usually arranged spatially close together, surrounded by piping, which serve to monitor the pressures of built-in gas springs by means built-in pressure gauge.

Durch den immer weiter fortschreitenden Einsatz von hochfesten Blechen im Automobilbau steigen die erforderlichen Stanzdrücke und somit auch die Abstreifkräfte, die auf den Stanzstempel und dessen Verankerung in seiner Halteplatte beim Rückzugs- und somit Abstreifvorgang wirken. Für das "Prog Die" kann hierbei durchaus von einer maximalen Belastung dieser Abstreifkräfte von ca. 100 kN (10 t) pro Formstempel ausgegangen werden. Hierbei wird eine Stanzkraft von 1.000 kN (100 t) zugrundegelegt. Ein für diesen Anwendungsfall zu konzipierendes Stanzstempel-Aufnahmesystem muss mit entsprechenden Sicherheiten diese Zugkräfte beim Rückzugs- bzw. Abstreifvorgang aufnehmen können.Due to the ever-advancing use of high-strength sheets in the automotive industry, the required punching pressures and thus also the stripping forces that act on the punch and its anchoring in its plate during Rückzugss- and thus stripping process. For the "Prog Die", a maximum load of this stripping force of approx. 100 kN (10 t) per forming punch can be assumed. This is based on a punching force of 1,000 kN (100 t). A stamping and receiving system to be designed for this application must be able to absorb these tensile forces during retraction or stripping operation with appropriate safety devices.

Eine deutlich reduzierte Standzeit der Anordnung ergibt sich, wenn eine spielbehaftete Lagerung des Stanzstempels in der Halteplatte beim Rückzugs- bzw. Abstreifvorgang zu verzeichnen ist. In diesem Fall wirken sehr hohe Biege- und Schwerkräfte auf die Verbindung von Stanzstempel und Halteplatte.A significantly reduced service life of the arrangement results when a play-bearing storage of the punch in the holding plate during retraction or stripping is recorded. In this case, very high bending and gravitational forces act on the connection between the punch and the retaining plate.

Des Weiteren muss auf die Platzverhältnisse im Werkzeug Rücksicht genommen werden. Es muss die Möglichkeit gegeben sein, die Stanzstempel im beengten, durch die Anordnung bedingten, seitlichen Arbeitsraum wechseln zu können. Insbesondere soll dies schnell und ohne Ausbau der Halteplatte bei Verschleiß oder Stempelbruch möglich sein.Furthermore, consideration must be given to the space available in the tool. It must be possible to change the punches in the cramped, due to the arrangement, lateral work space can. In particular, this should be possible quickly and without removal of the holding plate in case of wear or stamp breakage.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, eine Stanzanordnung zu schaffen, bei der die Standzeit der Anordnung aufgrund einer spielfreien Lagerung des Stanzstempels in der Halteplatte beim Rückzugs- bzw. Abstreifvorgang signifikant hoch ist.Object of the present invention is to provide a punching arrangement in which the service life of the arrangement is significantly high due to a play-free storage of the punch in the holding plate during the retraction or stripping.

Gelöst wird die Aufgabe durch eine Stanzanordnung, die gemäß den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 ausgebildet ist.The object is achieved by a punching arrangement, which is formed according to the features of claim 1.

Die erfindungsgemäße Stanzanordnung weist einen Stanzstempel und eine Halteplatte für den Stanzstempel auf, wobei der Stanzstempel bei einem Stanzhub im Bereich einer Stempelschulter die Halteplatte oder eine zwischen dem Stanzstempel und der Halteplatte angeordnete Druckplatte kontaktiert. Der Stanzstempel weist einen Stempelkopf und die Halteplatte eine Aufnahme für den Stempelkopf auf. Es sind ferner Mittel zum Befestigen des Stempelkopfs an der Halteplatte vorgesehen. Diese Mittel weisen erfindungsgemäß auf:

  • eine in den Stempelkopf eingebrachte Tasche,
  • eine in eine Gewindebohrung der Halteplatte eingeschraubte Spannschraube,
  • ein in Achsrichtung der Spannschraube zwischen dieser und der Tasche angeordnetes Druckstück,
  • eine Halteschraube für das Druckstück, wobei die Halteschraube eine Bohrung der Spannschraube durchsetzt und mit einem Gewindeabschnitt in eine Gewindebohrung des Druckstücks geschraubt ist.
The punching arrangement according to the invention has a punch and a holding plate for the punch, wherein the punch contacts the holding plate or a pressure plate arranged between the punch and the holding plate during a punching stroke in the region of a punch shoulder. The punch has a punch head and the holding plate has a receptacle for the stamp head. There are further provided means for attaching the stamp head to the support plate. These agents are according to the invention:
  • a pocket introduced into the stamp head,
  • a clamping screw screwed into a threaded bore of the retaining plate,
  • an in the axial direction of the clamping screw between the latter and the pocket arranged pressure piece,
  • a retaining screw for the pressure piece, wherein the retaining screw passes through a bore of the clamping screw and is screwed with a threaded portion in a threaded bore of the pressure piece.

Hierbei kontaktiert in einer eingeschraubten Stellung der Spannschraube, auf einer der Schulter abgewandten Seite der Tasche, ein konischer Abschnitt des Druckstücks einen konischen Abschnitt der Tasche flächig. In dieser eingeschraubten Stellung der Spannschraube liegt die Stempelschulter an der Halteplatte oder Druckplatte an und es ist ein Schraubenkopf der Halteschraube mit axialem Spiel bezüglich der Spannschraube angeordnet.Here, in a screwed-in position of the clamping screw, on a side of the pocket facing away from the shoulder, a conical section of the pressure piece contacts a conical section of the pocket in a planar manner. In this screwed-in position of the clamping screw, the punch shoulder bears against the retaining plate or pressure plate and a screw head of the retaining screw with axial clearance relative to the clamping screw is arranged.

Bei dieser Ausbildung der Stanzanordnung, insbesondere der Mittel zum Befestigen des Stempelkopfs an der Halteplatte, ist gewährleistet, dass der Stanzstempel mit seiner Stempelschulter spielfrei gegen die Halteplatte bzw. die Druckplatte vorgespannt ist. Beim Stanzhub ist somit sichergestellt, dass die Stanzkräfte zwischen Stempelschulter und Halteplatte bzw. Stempelschulter und Druckplatte übertragen werden. Der Stanzdruck wird somit nicht vom Druckstück aufgenommen. Bezogen auf den Rückhub bzw. Abstreifvorgang des Stanzstempels hat dies zur Folge, dass die Halteplatte und der Stanzstempel spielfrei bewegt werden, weil diese Spielfreiheit durch die erfindungsgemäße Gestaltung und Anordnung des Druckstücks garantiert wird. Es ist somit keine spielbehaftete Verbindung zwischen Halteplatte und Stanzstempel vorhanden bzw. es ist sichergestellt, dass sich keine lockere Verbindung zwischen Halteplatte und Stanzstempel einstellt. Eine solche lockere Verbindung, die eine nicht präzise Führung des Stanzstempels bedingt, hätte zur Folge, dass der Stanzstempel beim Rückhub bzw. Abstreifvorgang das gestanzte Blech verformt bzw. beschädigt. Abgesehen hiervon führt eine solche spielbehaftete Verbindung zu einer erhöhten mechanischen Beanspruchung des Verbindungsbereichs von Halteplatte und Stanzstempel, mit der Folge einer geringeren Standzeit. Es besteht insbesondere die Gefahr, dass der Stanzstempel im Bereich des Stempelkopfes bricht.In this embodiment of the punching arrangement, in particular the means for attaching the punch head to the holding plate, it is ensured that the punch with its punch shoulder is biased backlash against the holding plate or the pressure plate. During the punching stroke, it is thus ensured that the punching forces are transmitted between the punch shoulder and the holding plate or punch shoulder and pressure plate. The punching pressure is thus not absorbed by the pressure piece. Relative to the return stroke or stripping operation of the punch, this has the consequence that the holding plate and the punch are moved without play, because this backlash is guaranteed by the inventive design and arrangement of the pressure piece. There is thus no play-afflicted connection between the holding plate and punches available or it is ensured that no loose connection between the holding plate and punch sets. Such a loose connection, which causes a non-precise guidance of the punch, would have the consequence that the punch on the return stroke or stripping deformed or damaged the punched sheet. Apart from this, such a play-related connection leads to an increased mechanical stress on the connection area of the holding plate and punch, with the consequence of a shorter service life. In particular, there is a risk that the punch breaks in the area of the punch head.

Da das Druckstück keine Ausnehmung im Stempelkopf kontaktiert, die den Stempelkopf vollständig durchsetzt, sondern stattdessen eine Tasche im Stempelkopf vorgesehen ist, können über den Stempelkopf erhöhte Kräfte beim Rückhub bzw. Abstreifvorgang übertragen werden.Since the pressure piece does not contact a recess in the stamp head, which completely penetrates the stamp head, but rather a pocket is provided in the stamp head, increased forces can be transmitted via the stamp head during the return stroke or stripping operation.

Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Stanzanordnung lässt sich mittels der Spannschraube über das Druckstück eine derartige Vorspannung zwischen Stempelschulter und Halteplatte bzw. Druckplatte erzeugen, die garantiert, dass der Stanzstempel nach einem theoretisch möglichen Setzvorgang immer noch festsitzt und damit kein Spiel zwischen Stempelschulter und Halteplatte bzw. Druckplatte entstehen kann.In the punching arrangement according to the invention can be by means of the clamping screw on the pressure piece such a bias between punch shoulder and plate or pressure plate produce, which guarantees that the punch still stuck to a theoretically possible setting process and thus no play between punch shoulder and plate or pressure plate can.

Damit der Stanzstempel demontiert werden kann, ist es erforderlich, das in der Tasche verklemmte Druckstück aus der Tasche zu ziehen. Dies erfolgt aufgrund der erfindungsgemäß vorgesehenen Verbindung, die die Halteschraube zwischen der Spannschraube und dem Druckstück herstellt. Wird die Spannschraube in Ausschraubrichtung gedreht, führt dies dazu, dass das axiale Spiel zwischen dem Schraubenkopf in der Halteschraube und der Spannschraube verringert wird, bis der Schraubenkopf der Halteschraube an der Spannschraube anliegt und dann beim weiteren Ausdrehen der Spannschraube aufgrund des Formschlusses zwischen dem Schraubenkopf der Halteschraube und der Spannschraube das Druckstück mit bewegt wird, aus der Klemmstellung bezüglich der Tasche.So that the punch can be dismantled, it is necessary to pull the jammed in the bag pressure piece out of the bag. This is due to the inventively provided compound that produces the retaining screw between the clamping screw and the pressure piece. If the clamping screw is rotated in the unscrewing, this leads to the fact that the axial play between the screw head in the retaining screw and the clamping screw is reduced until the screw head of the retaining screw rests against the clamping screw and then further unscrewing the clamping screw due to the positive connection between the screw head Retaining screw and the clamping screw, the pressure piece is moved with, from the clamping position with respect to the bag.

Vorzugsweise sind Mittel zum Ausrichten des Druckstücks in einer Drehrichtung des Druckstücks relativ zum konischen Abschnitt der Tasche vorgesehen. Hierdurch ist eine lose Vorzentrierung des Druckstücks gewährleistet, womit problemlos sichergestellt werden kann, dass beim Zustellen der Spannschraube der konische Abschnitt des Druckstücks den konischen Abschnitt der Tasche flächig kontaktiert.Preferably means are provided for aligning the pressure piece in a direction of rotation of the pressure piece relative to the conical portion of the pocket. As a result, a loose pre-centering of the pressure piece is ensured, which can be easily ensured that when delivering the clamping screw of the conical portion of the pressure piece contacted the conical portion of the bag surface.

Gemäß einer besonderen Weiterbildung ist vorgesehen, dass die beschriebene Anordnung zum Halten des Stanzstempels in der Halteplatte zweimal vorgesehen ist.

Figurenbeschreibungfigure description

Fig. 1 zeigt die Oberseite einer "Prog Die"-Stanzeinheit 1, die mit einer Vielzahl von Formstempeln, konkret achtzehn Formstempeln versehen ist. Diese sind in einer gemeinsamen Einheit gelagert, die bei kleiner bis mittlerer Größe Ausmaße von ca. 1.600 x 1.200 mm aufweist. Diese Stanzeinheit 1 findet hauptsächlich Verwendung im Automobilbau, insbesondere bei der Herstellung von Chassis und Karosserie. Fig. 1 shows the top of a "prog die" punching unit 1, which is provided with a plurality of dies, specifically eighteen dies. These are stored in a common unit, which has dimensions of approx. 1,600 x 1,200 mm for small to medium size. This punching unit 1 is mainly used in the automotive industry, especially in the production of chassis and body.

Der Fig. 1 ist zu entnehmen, dass die achtzehn Formstempel räumlich eng beieinander angeordnet sind, umgeben von Rohrleitungen 3, die zur Überwachung der Drücke von eingebauten Gasdruckfedern 4 mittels im Werkzeug eingebauter Manometer dienen.Of the Fig. 1 It can be seen that the eighteen forming dies are arranged spatially close together, surrounded by pipes 3, for monitoring the pressures of built-in gas springs 4 are used by built-in pressure gauge in the tool.

Drei der bei der Stanzeinheit 1 Verwendung findenden Formstempel sind entsprechend der erfindungsgemäßen Stanzanordnung 2 ausgebildet.Three of the forming dies used in the punching unit 1 are designed according to the punching arrangement 2 according to the invention.

Diese Stanzanordnung 2 gemäß der ersten Ausführungsform ist in den Fig. 2 bis 29 veranschaulicht.This punch assembly 2 according to the first embodiment is in the Fig. 2 to 29 illustrated.

Die Stanzanordnung 2 weist einen Stanzstempel 5 und eine Halteplatte 6 für den Stanzstempel 5 auf. Der Stanzstempel 5 weist ein Stempelteil 7, mittels dessen die eigentliche Stanzung erfolgt, ferner einen mit dem Stempelteil 7 verbundenen Stempelkopf 8 auf. Der Stempelkopf 8 ist plattenförmig ausgebildet. Auf der dem Stempelkopf 8 zugewandten Seite weist das Stempelteil 7 eine Stempelschulter 9 auf.The punching arrangement 2 has a punch 5 and a holding plate 6 for the punch 5. The punch 5 has a stamp part 7, by means of which the actual punching takes place, furthermore a punch head 8 connected to the stamp part 7. The stamp head 8 is plate-shaped. On the side facing the stamp head 8, the stamp member 7 has a punch shoulder 9.

Zwischen dem Stanzstempel 5, konkret der Stempelschulter 9, und der Halteplatte 6 ist eine Druckplatte 10 angeordnet. Die Druckplatte 10 weist ein dieses durchsetzendes Langloch 11 auf. Beidseitig des Langlochs ist die Druckplatte mit Ausnehmungen zur Aufnahme von Schrauben 12 versehen, wobei die nicht veranschaulichten Köpfe dieser Schrauben 12 im Bereich der Unterseite der Druckplatte 10 versenkt sind. Mittels dieser Schrauben 12 ist die Druckplatte 10 an der Unterseite der Halteplatte 6 befestigt, konkret in dort befindliche Gewindebohrungen 13 eingeschraubt. Das Langloch 11 weist solche Abmessungen auf, dass der Stempelkopf 8 mit geringem Spiel in den beiden senkrecht zur Einsteckrichtung des Stempelkopfes 2 verlaufenden Raumkoordinaten die Druckplatte 10 durchsetzt.Between the punch 5, specifically the punch shoulder 9, and the holding plate 6, a pressure plate 10 is arranged. The pressure plate 10 has a this passing through slot 11. On both sides of the oblong hole, the pressure plate is provided with recesses for receiving screws 12, wherein the unillustrated heads of these screws 12 are recessed in the region of the underside of the pressure plate 10. By means of these screws 12, the pressure plate 10 is fixed to the underside of the retaining plate 6, specifically screwed into located there threaded holes 13. The slot 11 has such dimensions that the punch head 8 passes through the pressure plate 10 with little play in the two space coordinates running perpendicular to the insertion direction of the punch head 2.

In Stanzrichtung gesehen weisen die Halteplatte 6, die Druckplatte 10 und das Stempelteil 7 eine identische Querschnittsform auf, nämlich in Form eines Rechtecks mit abgeschrägten Ecken. Die in Stanzrichtung gesehenen Flächen von Halteplatte 6 und Druckplatte 10 sind gleich, während die Fläche des Stempelteils 7 in dieser Richtung geringer ist.As seen in the punching direction, the holding plate 6, the pressure plate 10 and the stamping part 7 have an identical cross-sectional shape, namely in the form of a rectangle with bevelled corners. The areas seen in the punching direction of holding plate 6 and pressure plate 10 are the same, while the surface of the stamp member 7 is lower in this direction.

Die Halteplatte 6 weist im Bereich der vier Ecken Bohrungen zur Aufnahme von Schrauben 14 auf, wobei der jeweilige Schraubenkopf auf der der Druckplatte 10 zugewandten Seite der Halteplatte 6 in einer Ausnehmung versenkt ist. Mittels dieser Schrauben 14 wird die Halteplatte 6 mit einer Basisplatte 15 der Stanzeinheit 1 verbunden. Zwei in der Halteplatte 6 gelagerte Zapfen 16 dienen der Führung der Halteplatte 6 beim Positionieren der Halteplatte 6 bezüglich der Basisplatte 15. Entsprechend ist die Basisplatte 15 nicht nur mit Gewindebohrungen zum Einschrauben der Schrauben 14, sondern auch mit Aufnahmen zum Einstecken der Zapfen 16 versehen.The holding plate 6 has in the region of the four corners holes for receiving screws 14, wherein the respective screw head is recessed on the pressure plate 10 facing side of the holding plate 6 in a recess. By means of these screws 14, the holding plate 6 is connected to a base plate 15 of the punching unit 1. Two mounted in the support plate 6 pin 16 serve to guide the support plate 6 in positioning the support plate 6 with respect to the base plate 15. Accordingly, the base plate 15 is not only provided with threaded holes for screwing the screws 14, but also with receptacles for inserting the pin 16.

Die Halteplatte 6 weist zwei Aufnahmen 17 und einen zwischen diesen angeordneten Steg 18 auf. Hierbei durchsetzen die Aufnahmen 17 die Halteplatte 6, während der Steg 18 sich nur etwa über die Hälfte der Stärke der Halteplatte 6 erstreckt, in dem Bereich der Halteplatte 6, der der Druckplatte 10 abgewandt ist. Entsprechend weist der Stempelkopf 8 zwei Kopfabschnitte 19 auf, zwischen denen eine Ausnehmung 20 gebildet ist. Der jeweilige Kopfabschnitt 19 ist in eine diesem zugeordnete Aufnahme 17 eingesteckt. Hierbei durchsetzt der Steg 18 die Ausnehmung 20. Demzufolge ist der Stanzstempel 5 im Bereich des Stempelkopfes 8 in den zwei Koordinatenrichtungen senkrecht zur Stanzrichtung weitgehend spielfrei in den Aufnahmen 17 der Halteplatte 6 positioniert und auch bezüglich des Steges 18 der Halteplatte 6 ausgerichtet.The holding plate 6 has two receptacles 17 and a web 18 arranged between them. Here, the receptacles 17 pass through the holding plate 6, while the web 18 extends only about half the thickness of the holding plate 6, in the region of the holding plate 6, which faces away from the pressure plate 10. Accordingly, the stamp head 8 on two head portions 19, between which a recess 20 is formed. The respective head portion 19 is inserted into a receptacle 17 associated therewith. In this case, the web 18 passes through the recess 20. Consequently, the punch 5 is positioned in the two coordinate directions perpendicular to the punching largely free of play in the receptacles 17 of the support plate 6 and aligned with respect to the web 18 of the support plate 6 in the region of the punch head 8.

In der in der Halteplatte 6 eingesteckten Stellung des Stanzstempels 5, in der der Stanzstempel 5 mit dem Stempelkopf 8 die Druckplatte 10 durchsetzt und die Druckplatte 10 mit der Halteplatte 6 verschraubt ist und diese mit der Basisplatte 15 der Stanzeinheit 1 verschraubt ist, bilden die genannten Bauteile eine Funktionseinheit. Hierbei liegt der Stanzstempel 5 in Stanzrichtung spielfrei an der Druckplatte 10 im Bereich der Stempelschulter 9 an.In the inserted into the holding plate 6 position of the punch 5, in which the punch 5 passes through the pressure plate 10 with the punch head 8 and the pressure plate 10 is screwed to the support plate 6 and this is bolted to the base plate 15 of the punching unit 1, form the mentioned Components a functional unit. Here, the punch 5 is in the punching direction without play on the pressure plate 10 in the region of the punch shoulder 9 at.

Aufgrund der beschriebenen Anordnung lässt sich der Stanzstempel 5 demontieren bzw. auswechseln, ohne dass eine Demontage der Druckplatte 10 bezüglich der Halteplatte 6 erforderlich ist.Due to the described arrangement, the punch 5 can be dismantled or replaced without disassembly of the pressure plate 10 with respect to the support plate 6 is required.

Gehalten ist der Stanzstempel 5 in der Halteplatte 6 durch zweifach vorgesehene Mittel 21 zum Befestigen des Stempelkopfs 8 an der Halteplatte 6. Des jeweilige Mittel 21 weist eine in den Stempelkopf 8 eingebrachte Tasche 22, eine in eine Gewindebohrung 23 der Halteplatte 6 eingeschraubte Spannschraube 24, ein in Achsrichtung der Spannschraube 24 zwischen dieser und der Tasche 22 angeordnetes Druckstück 25 sowie eine Halteschraube 26 für das Druckstück 25 auf. Die Halteschraube 26 durchsetzt eine Bohrung 27 der Spannschraube 24 und ist mit einem Gewindeabschnitt 28 in eine Gewindebohrung 29 des Druckstücks 25 eingeschraubt. In einer eingeschraubten Stellung der Spannschraube 24, auf einer der Stempelschulter 9 abgewandten Seite 30 der Tasche 22, kontaktiert ein konischer Abschnitt 31 des Druckstücks 25 einen konischen Abschnitt 32 der Tasche 22 flächig. In dieser in Fig. 7 im Detail veranschaulichten eingeschraubten Stellung der Spannschraube 24 liegt die Stempelschulter 9 an der Druckplatte 10 flächig an. Hierbei ist ein Schraubenkopf 33 der Halteschraube 26 mit axialem Spiel, verdeutlicht durch den Spalt 34, bezüglich der Spannschraube 24 angeordnet.Held the punch 5 in the holding plate 6 by means twice provided for attaching the punch head 8 to the holding plate 6. The respective means 21 has a introduced into the punch head 8 pocket 22, a screwed into a threaded bore 23 of the support plate 6 clamping screw 24, a in the axial direction of the clamping screw 24 between this and the pocket 22 arranged pressure piece 25 and a retaining screw 26 for the pressure piece 25 on. The retaining screw 26 passes through a bore 27 of the clamping screw 24 and is screwed with a threaded portion 28 in a threaded bore 29 of the pressure piece 25. In a screwed-in position of the clamping screw 24, on a side facing away from the punch shoulder 9 side 30 of the pocket 22, contacted a conical portion 31 of the pressure piece 25 a conical portion 32 of the bag 22 areally. In this in Fig. 7 illustrated in detail screwed position of the clamping screw 24 is the punch shoulder 9 on the pressure plate 10 flat. Here, a screw head 33 of the retaining screw 26 with axial play, illustrated by the gap 34, with respect to the clamping screw 24 is arranged.

Im Detail ist das der Tasche 22 abgewandte Ende des Druckstücks 25 als rotationssymmetrischer Zylinder 35 und das der Tasche 22 zugewandte Ende des Druckstücks 25 als Kegelstumpf 46 ausgebildet. Ein Mantelbereich des Kegelstumpfs 46 weist im Bereich dessen freien Endes eine ebene Kontaktfläche 36 zwecks Kontakt mit der Tasche 22 aufweist. Die Tasche 22 ist als sich in Richtung eines Bodens 37 der Tasche 22 hin verjüngender Kegelstumpfausnehmung mit zumindest in einem Mantelbereich des Kegelstumpfs angeordneter, ebener Kontaktfläche 38 zwecks flächigem Kontakt mit der Kontaktfläche 36 des Druckstücks 22 ausgebildet. Hierbei weist die Tasche 22, somit die Kegelstumpfausnehmung einen ovalen, insbesondere geringfügig ovalen Querschnitt auf. Die Erstreckung der Tasche 22 quer zur Stanzrichtung des Stanzstempels 5 bzw. in dessen Rückzugsrichtung ist geringer als die Erstreckung der Tasche 22 senkrecht zu dieser Richtung. Dies erlaubt einen gewissen Toleranzausgleich in Quererstreckung, somit in Richtung des Abstands der beiden Taschen 22 unter dem Aspekt von Fertigungsungenauigkeiten.In detail, the bag 22 remote from the end of the pressure piece 25 as a rotationally symmetrical cylinder 35 and the bag 22 facing the end of the pressure piece 25 is formed as a truncated cone 46. A jacket region of the truncated cone 46 has a flat contact surface 36 in the region of its free end for the purpose of making contact with the pocket 22. The pocket 22 is designed as a truncated cone recess tapering in the direction of a bottom 37 of the pocket 22 with a planar contact surface 38 arranged at least in a jacket region of the truncated cone for surface contact with the contact surface 36 of the pressure element 22. Here, the pocket 22, thus the truncated cone recess on an oval, in particular slightly oval cross-section. The extension of the pocket 22 transversely to the punching direction of the punch 5 or in its withdrawal direction is less than the extension of the pocket 22 perpendicular to this direction. This allows a certain tolerance compensation in transverse extent, thus in the direction of the distance of the two pockets 22 in terms of manufacturing inaccuracies.

Ausschließlich aus dem Grund der vereinfachten Fertigung ist am konischen Teil des Druckstücks 25 auch im diametralen Bereich gleichfalls eine Fläche 39 vorgesehen.For the sole reason of the simplified production, a surface 39 is also provided on the conical part of the pressure piece 25 in the diametrical area as well.

Das Druckstück 22 ist, wie insbesondere der Fig. 7 zu entnehmen ist, in der eingeschraubten Stellung der Spannschraube 24 im Abstand zum Boden 37 der Tasche angeordnet. Die Spannschraube 24 weist einen Schraubenkopf 40 mit einem äußeren Mehrkant auf, der als Sechskant ausgebildet ist. In der eingeschraubten Stellung der Spannschraube 24 steht der Schraubenkopf 40 über die Halteplatte 6 vor, sodass, ohne dass erheblicher Bauraum neben der Stanzanordnung 2 erforderlich ist, ein einfaches Betätigen des Schraubenkopfes 40 mittels eines Schraubwerkzeugs möglich ist. Die Halteschraube 26 weist einen Schraubenkopf mit einem inneren Mehrkant, insbesondere Sechskant auf, wobei der Schraubenkopf 41 innerhalb der Spannschraube 24 angeordnet ist.The pressure piece 22 is, in particular the Fig. 7 can be seen in the screwed position of the clamping screw 24 is arranged at a distance from the bottom 37 of the bag. The clamping screw 24 has a screw head 40 with an outer polygon, which is designed as a hexagon. In the screwed-in position of the clamping screw 24, the screw head 40 protrudes beyond the holding plate 6, so that, without considerable space being required next to the punching arrangement 2, a simple actuation of the screw head 40 by means of a screwing tool is possible. The retaining screw 26 has a screw head with an internal polygon, in particular hexagon, wherein the screw head 41 is disposed within the clamping screw 24.

Fig. 2 zeigt die eine Spannschraube 24 in deren eingeschraubten Stellung (entsprechend Fig. 7) und die andere Spannschraube 24 in einer teilweise herausgeschraubten Stellung (entsprechend Fig. 8). Fig. 2 shows the one clamping screw 24 in its screwed position (corresponding to Fig. 7 ) and the other clamping screw 24 in a partially unscrewed position (corresponding Fig. 8 ).

Bei der Stanzanordnung 2 sind somit in den Stempelkopf 8 zwei Taschen 22 eingebracht und es wirkt mit der jeweiligen Tasche 22 ein Druckstück 25 und mit dem Druckstück 25 eine Spannschraube 24 und eine Halteschraube 26 zusammen. Die Taschen 22 sind identisch ausgebildet, genauso sind die Spannschrauben 24 identisch ausgebildet, die Druckstücke 25 identisch ausgebildet und die Halteschrauben 26 identisch ausgebildet.In the punching arrangement 2, two pockets 22 are thus introduced into the punch head 8 and it interacts with the respective pocket 22, a pressure piece 25 and with the pressure piece 25, a clamping screw 24 and a retaining screw 26 together. The pockets 22 are identical, just as the clamping screws 24 are identical, the pressure pieces 25 are formed identically and the retaining screws 26 formed identical.

Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Stanzanordnung 2 wird der Stanzstempel 5 durch die Druckplatte 10 gesteckt und mit der Halteplatte 6 verschraubt. Die genaue Lagepositionierung erfolgt durch zwei Passungen in X- und Y-Richtung. Gesichert gegen Herausziehen in Z-Richtung wird der Stanzstempel 5 durch die beiden Mittel 21. Diese Art der Sicherung bzw. Befestigung ermöglicht ein schnelles Wechseln des Stanzstempels 5. Im gespannten Zustand, wie insbesondere in Fig. 7 veranschaulicht ist, liegt das jeweilige Druckstück 25 an der Stirnseite der Spannschraube 24 an und wird über deren Außengewinde in die, der Geometrie des Druckstücks 25 entsprechende Einfräsung im Stempelkopf 8 angepresst. Über die Schräge am Ende des Druckstücks 25 wird mittels der Gegenschräge im Stempelkopf 8 die Stempelschulter 9 gegen die Druckplatte 10 gezogen, sodass der Stanzstempel 5 mittels der beiden vorgesehenen Mittel 21 mit Vorspannung gegen die Druckplatte 10, die dann den Stanzdruck aufnehmen kann, gegen die Stanzrichtung angepresst werden kann.In the punching arrangement 2 according to the invention, the punch 5 is inserted through the pressure plate 10 and screwed to the holding plate 6. The exact positioning is done by two fits in the X and Y direction. Secured against pulling in the Z direction of the punch 5 by the two means 21. This type of fuse or attachment allows quick change of the punch 5. In the tensioned state, in particular in Fig. 7 is illustrated, the respective pressure piece 25 abuts against the end face of the clamping screw 24 and is pressed on the external thread in the, corresponding to the geometry of the pressure piece 25 milled in the punch head 8. About the slope at the end of the pressure piece 25, the punch shoulder 9 is pulled against the pressure plate 10 by means of the counter-slope in the punch head 8, so that the punch 5 by means of the two provided means 21 with bias against the pressure plate 10, which can then take the punching pressure against the Punching direction can be pressed.

Zum Herausnehmen des Stanzstempels 5 in Stanzrichtung wird die jeweilige Spannschraube 24 gelöst und nach Kontakt des Unterteils des Schraubenkopfes 41 der Halteschraube 26 für das Druckstück 25 mit der Einsenkung in der Spannschraube 24 wird das Druckstück 25 mittels der Halteschraube 26 aus der Einfräsung im Stempelkopf 8 gezogen. Das Druckstück 25 gibt bei weiteren Drehungen der Spannschraube 24 den Stanzstempel 5, konkret dem Stempelkopf 8 frei, nachdem das Druckstück 25 komplett aus dem Stempelkopf 8 herausbewegt ist.To remove the punch 5 in the punching direction, the respective clamping screw 24 is released and after contact of the lower part of the screw head 41 of the retaining screw 26 for the pressure piece 25 with the recess in the clamping screw 24, the pressure piece 25 is pulled by means of the retaining screw 26 from the milled recess in the punch head 8 , The pressure piece 25 are at further rotations of the clamping screw 24, the punch 5, specifically the punch head 8 free after the pressure piece 25 is completely moved out of the punch head 8.

Eine weitere Funktion der Spannschrauben 24 ist die Aufnahme des Abstreifdrucks nach dem Stanzen, wenn der Stanzstempel 5 das gestanzte Blech in Richtung des oberen Totpunkts verlässt. Dies geschieht durch die Anpressung des jeweiligen Kopfabschnitts 19 an die gegenüberliegende Wandung der Aufnahme 17 der Halteplatte 6 mittels der Spannschrauben 24 und durch den Scherwiderstand des Querschnitts der sich im Eingriff befindlichen Druckstücke 25.Another function of the clamping screws 24 is the recording of Abstreifdrucks after punching when the punch 5 leaves the punched sheet in the direction of top dead center. This is done by the contact pressure of the respective head portion 19 to the opposite wall of the receptacle 17 of the holding plate 6 by means of the clamping screws 24 and by the shear resistance of the cross section of the engaged pressure pieces 25th

Die beim Abstreifen nach dem Stanzen auftretenden Kräfte können hierbei bis zu 100 kN betragen.The forces occurring during stripping after punching can be up to 100 kN.

Der Einsatz von mehreren Spannschrauben, vorliegend der beiden Spannschrauben 24, ermöglicht enge Toleranzfelder zu beherrschen, sowohl in der Reihenanordnung der Spannschraubengewinde bei der Halteplatte 6, wie auch der Einfräsungen im Stempelkopf 8 durch die Schrägen in der Einfräsung im Stempelkopf 8 wie auch am vorderen Teil des Druckstücks 25 ausgeglichen werden, ohne dass eine Spannschraube 24 in ihrer Funktion des Anpressens der Stempelschulter 9 beeinträchtigt wird.The use of several clamping screws, in this case the two clamping screws 24, allows tight tolerance fields to dominate both in the series arrangement of the clamping screw thread in the holding plate 6, as well as the milled cuts in the punch head 8 by the bevels in the milled recess in the punch head 8 as well as the front part the pressure piece 25 are compensated without a clamping screw 24 is impaired in their function of pressing the punch shoulder 9.

Bei der Spannschraube 24 handelt es sich beispielsweise um eine Schraube M 16, bei der Halteschraube 26 um eine Schraube M 4. Das Druckstück hat beispielsweise einen Durchmesser von 13 mm, wobei der konische Abschnitt 31 unter einem Winkel von 5° zur Taschenachse verläuft. Die ovale konische Tasche 22 hat beispielsweise Abmessungen von 14 mm/12 mm bei einer Tiefe von 6 mm.The clamping screw 24 is, for example, a screw M 16, in the retaining screw 26 by a screw M 4. The pressure piece, for example, has a diameter of 13 mm, wherein the conical portion 31 extends at an angle of 5 ° to the pocket axis. The oval conical pocket 22 has, for example, dimensions of 14 mm / 12 mm at a depth of 6 mm.

Die zweite Ausführungsform gemäß der Fig. 30 und 31 unterscheidet sich von der ersten Ausführungsform nur hinsichtlich der Ausbildung des Druckstücks 25 und Mitteln zum losen Vorzentrieren des Druckstücks 25. Insofern wird, zur Vermeidung von Wiederholungen, auf die grundsätzlichen Ausführungen zur ersten Ausführungsform verwiesen.The second embodiment according to the FIGS. 30 and 31 differs from the first embodiment only in terms of the formation of the pressure piece 25 and means for loose pre-centering of the pressure piece 25. In so far, to avoid repetition, reference is made to the basic comments on the first embodiment.

Bei der zweiten Ausführungsform gemäß der Fig. 30 und 31 ist der zylindrische Abschnitt 35 des Druckstücks mit einer in Achsrichtung verlaufenden, nach radial außen offenen Nut 42 versehen. Diese erstreckt sich von dem der Kontaktfläche 36 abgewandten Ende des Druckstücks 25 bis nahezu in den Bereich der Kontaktfläche 36. Die Nut 42 ist derart angeordnet, dass die Verlängerung der Nut 42 mit einer Symmetrielinie der Kontaktfläche 36 zusammenfällt, so dass eine Ausrichtung der Nut 42 einer entsprechenden Ausrichtung der Kontaktfläche 36 entspricht. Mit der Nut 42 wirkt ein Gewindestift 43 zusammen, der im Bereich seines dem Druckstück 25 zugewandten Endes einen Zapfen 44 aufweist. Der Durchmesser des Zapfens 44 ist geringfügig kleiner als die Breite der Nut 42. Der Gewindestift 43 ist in eine Gewindebohrung 45 der Halteplatte 6 eingeschraubt. Der Gewindestift 43 mit Zapfen 44 ermöglicht eine lose Vorzentrierung des Druckstücks 25. Damit kann auf einfache Art und Weise sichergestellt werden, dass beim Einschrauben der Spannschraube 24 das Druckstück 25 im Bereich seiner Kontaktfläche 36 exakt bezüglich des konischen Abschnitts 32 in der Tasche 22 ausgerichtet ist.In the second embodiment according to the FIGS. 30 and 31 is the cylindrical portion 35 of the pressure piece with an axially extending, radially outwardly open groove 42 is provided. The groove 42 is arranged such that the extension of the groove 42 coincides with a symmetry line of the contact surface 36, so that alignment of the groove 42 a corresponding orientation of the contact surface 36 corresponds. With the groove 42, a threaded pin 43 cooperates, the Has a pin 44 in the region of its end facing the pressure piece 25. The diameter of the pin 44 is slightly smaller than the width of the groove 42. The threaded pin 43 is screwed into a threaded bore 45 of the retaining plate 6. The threaded pin 43 with pin 44 allows loose pre-centering of the pressure piece 25. This can be ensured in a simple manner that when screwing the clamping screw 24, the pressure piece 25 is aligned exactly in the region of its contact surface 36 with respect to the conical portion 32 in the pocket 22 ,

Bei der Vormontage der Halteplatte 6 wird einmalig das jeweilige Druckstück 25 mit seiner Nut 42 ausgerichtet und der Gewindestift 43 soweit eingeschraubt, dass dessen Zapfen 44 in die Nut 42 eingreift, ohne dass eine Verspannung zwischen Zapfen 44 und Druckstück 25 erfolgt. Somit ist das Druckstück 25 mit Spiel fixiert. Weder auf die Nut 42 noch auf das angedrehte Ende des Gewindestifts 43, somit den Zapfen 44, erfolgt eine Belastung, da mit dem Einfädeln der Flächen des Druckstücks 25 in die zugeordnete Tasche 22 in der Halteplatte 6 die Funktion der Vorzentrierung erfüllt ist.During pre-assembly of the holding plate 6, the respective pressure piece 25 is aligned once with its groove 42 and screwed the threaded pin 43 so far that its pin 44 engages in the groove 42 without a tension between the pin 44 and pressure piece 25 takes place. Thus, the pressure piece 25 is fixed with play. Neither on the groove 42 nor on the turned-end of the threaded pin 43, thus the pin 44, a burden, since the threading of the surfaces of the pressure piece 25 in the associated pocket 22 in the holding plate 6, the function of pre-centering is met.
