Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Erwärmungsvorrichtung zum konduktiven Erwärmen einer Blechplatine gemäß den Merkmalen im Oberbegriff von Patentanspruch 1.The present invention relates to a heating device for conductive heating of a sheet metal blank according to the features in the preamble of
Aus dem Stand der Technik ist es bekannt Kraftfahrzeugbauteile, insbesondere Kraftfahrzeugaußenbauteile oder aber auch Kraftfahrzeugstrukturbauteile aus Blechplatinen zu formen.From the prior art, it is known to form motor vehicle components, in particular motor vehicle exterior components or else also motor vehicle structural components from sheet metal blanks.
Hierbei haben sich das Warmumformen und Presshärten zur Herstellung von hochfesten oder gar höchstfesten Bauteilen aus härtbaren Stahllegierungen, gerade im Bereich der Autoindustrie durchgesetzt.Here, the hot forming and press hardening for the production of high-strength or even ultrahigh-strength components made of hardenable steel alloys, especially in the field of automotive industry prevailed.
Zur Durchführung des Warmumformens und Presshärtens wird zunächst eine Blechplatine zumindest partiell auf über Austenitisierungstemperatur erwärmt und dann in diesem Zustand umgeformt und durch schnelles Abkühlen in einem Pressenwerkzeug oder einer nachgeschalteten Abkühlvorrichtung gehärtet. Dieser Vorgang ist auch als Presshärten bekannt.To carry out the hot forming and press hardening, a sheet metal blank is first heated at least partially above austenitizing temperature and then shaped in this state and rapidly cooled in a Hardened press tool or a downstream cooling device. This process is also known as press hardening.
Die Erwärmung auf über Austenitisierungstemperatur bedeutet gleichsam eine Erwärmung auf mitunter mehr als 900°C, so dass ein erhöhter Energiereintrag von Nöten ist. Dies bedeutet hohe Produktionskosten und gleichsam eine entsprechende Umweltbelastung aufgrund der verbrauchten Energie.Heating to over Austenitisierungstemperatur means as it were a warming to more than 900 ° C, so that an increased energy input is needed. This means high production costs and a corresponding environmental impact due to the energy consumed.
Als ein Erwärmungsverfahren hat sich das konduktive Erwärmen aus dem Stand der Technik etabliert, bei dem mittels eines Stromflusses, welcher durch die zu erwärmende Platine geleitet wird, aufgrund des elektrischen Widerstandes Wärme innerhalb der Platine erzeugt wird. Ein solches Verfahren ist beispielsweise aus der
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, ausgehend vom Stand der Technik eine Erwärmungsmöglichkeit für eine Blechplatine aufzuzeigen, mit der ein rationelles gezieltes, insbesondere homogenes Erwärmen der Blechplatine mittels konduktiver Erwärmung ermöglicht wird.Object of the present invention is to show starting from the prior art, a heating possibility for a sheet metal blank, with a rational targeted, in particular homogeneous heating of the sheet metal blank is made possible by means of conductive heating.
Die zuvor genannte Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß mit einer Erwärmungsvorrichtung gemäß den Merkmalen im Patentanspruch 1 gelöst.The aforementioned object is achieved with a heating device according to the features in
Vorteilhafte Ausführungsvarianten der vorliegenden Erfindung sind Gegenstand der abhängigen Patentansprüche.Advantageous embodiments of the present invention are the subject of the dependent claims.
Die erfindungsgemäße Erwärmungsvorrichtung zum konduktiven Erwärmen einer Blechplatine mit variierender Querschnittsfläche, wobei die Blechplatine unmittelbarer Bestandteil eines Stromkreises ist zeichnet sich erfindungsgemäß dadurch aus, dass ein elektrisch leitfähiger Ausgleichskörper bzw. Ausgleichselement vorgesehen ist, auf eine Oberfläche der Blechplatine aufgesetzt ist, wobei die Querschnittsfläche der Blechplatine addiert mit der Querschnittsfläche des Ausgleichskörpers eine Stromleitquerschnittsfläche ergibt.The heating device according to the invention for the conductive heating of a metal sheet with varying cross-sectional area, wherein the sheet metal plate is a direct component of a circuit is characterized according to the invention by an electrically conductive compensating body or compensating element is provided, is placed on a surface of the sheet metal blank, wherein the cross-sectional area of the sheet metal blank added to the cross-sectional area of the compensating body results in a Stromleitquerschnittsfläche.
Erfindungsgemäß wird somit zumindest auf einer Oberfläche bevorzugt vollständig auf der Oberfläche ein Ausgleichselement aus einem elektrisch leitfähigem Werkstoff ausgesetzt, so dass voneinander abweichende Querschnitte der Blechplatine betreffend der damit verbundenen unterschiedlichen Erwärmung aufgrund einer Konzentration der Stromflussdichte gezielt beeinflusst werden. Im Rahmen der Erfindung ist es somit möglich, eine Blechplatine mit voneinander verschiedener Wanddicke oder aber alternativ auch Blechplatinen mit konstanter Wanddicke aber voneinander verschiedener Breite individuell partiell, bevorzugt homogen zu erwärmen. Dabei kann die voneinander verschiedene Breite durch eine voneinander verschiedene Absolutbreite im jeweiligen Querschnitt der Blechplatine aber auch durch Ausnehmungen, Öffnungen oder Durchbrüche innerhalb der Blechplatine beeinflusst sein. Ist ein Teil in eine gegenüber den jeweils benachbarten Querschnitten geringere Wanddicke und/oder geringere Breite zu verzeichnen, so würde hier bei einer Blechplatine ohne Ausgleichselement eine höhere Stromflussdichte zu einer stärkeren Erwärmung führen. Das Ausgleichselement selbst sieht hier durch eine größere Querschnittsfläche des Ausgleichselementes selber eine Kompensation der geringeren Querschnittsfläche der Blechplatine vor, so dass durch gezielte Wahl der sich gesamt ergebenden Stromflussquerschnittsfläche eine gezielte Einstellung der Erwärmung der Blechplatine in diesem Bereich erzielt wird. Die Stromdurchflussquerschnittsfläche ergibt sich dabei jeweils aus der Addition der Querschnittsfläche der Blechplatine sowie der Querschnittsfläche des Ausgleichselementes. Daraus ergibt sich somit eine wirksame bzw. effektive Stromleitquerschnittsfläche. Das Ausgleichselement liegt somit elektrisch leitend an der Blechplatine, welches insbesondere aus einem Stahlwerkstoff ausgebildet ist, an. Unter konduktiver Erwärmung ist im Rahmen dieser Erfindung eine Widerstandserwärmung in der Blechplatine aufgrund eines elektrischen Stromflusses zu verstehen.According to the invention, a compensating element made of an electrically conductive material is thus exposed, at least on a surface preferably completely on the surface, so that divergent cross sections of the sheet metal plate with regard to the associated different heating due to a concentration of the current density are selectively influenced. In the context of the invention, it is thus possible to heat a sheet metal plate with mutually different wall thickness or alternatively also sheet metal blanks with constant wall thickness but of different widths individually partially, preferably homogeneously. In this case, the mutually different width can be influenced by a different absolute width in the respective cross section of the sheet metal blank but also by recesses, openings or openings within the sheet metal blank. If a part has a smaller wall thickness and / or a smaller width compared with the respectively adjacent cross sections, a higher current density would lead to greater heating in the case of a metal sheet without compensation element. The compensating element itself provides here by a larger cross-sectional area of the compensation element itself before a compensation of the smaller cross-sectional area of the sheet metal blank, so that a targeted adjustment of the heating of the sheet metal blank in this area is achieved by specific choice of the total resulting current flow cross-sectional area. The current flow cross-sectional area results in each case from the addition of the cross-sectional area of the sheet metal blank as well as the cross-sectional area of the compensating element. This results in an effective or effective Stromleitquerschnittsfläche. The compensating element is thus electrically conductive on the sheet metal blank, which is formed in particular of a steel material to. Conductive heating in the context of this invention is a Resistance heating in the sheet metal plate to understand due to an electrical current flow.
Bevorzugt ist die Stromleitquerschnittsfläche konstant, so dass sich eine homogene Erwärmung über die gesamte Blechplatine ergibt. Streuverluste oder aber geringfüge Abweichungen aufgrund höherer Querschnittsfläche des Ausgleichselementes gegenüber geringerer Querschnittsfläche der Blechplatine, sind dabei im Rahmen der Erfindung vernachlässigbar.Preferably, the Stromleitquerschnittsfläche is constant, so that there is a homogeneous heating over the entire sheet metal blank. Scatter losses or slight deviations due to a higher cross-sectional area of the compensating element compared to a smaller cross-sectional area of the sheet metal blank are negligible within the scope of the invention.
Ein weiterer erfindungswesentlicher Vorteil ist, dass bei Kontaktierung des Ausgleichselementes mit entsprechenden Elektroden, insbesondere die Kontaktbereiche oder Aufnahmebereiche für die Elektroden an dem Ausgleichselement mit einer hohen Masse bzw. vergleichsweise dick ausgebildet sind. Hierdurch ergibt sich eine geringe Stromflussdichte in diesem Bereich, so dass es an dem Ausgleichselement nur zu einer geringen Erwärmung führt. Folglich bedarf es insbesondere gerade auch bei hoher Auslastung einer Erwärmung mit entsprechendem erfindungsgemäßem Ausgleichselement keiner separaten Kühlung im Bereich des Anschlusses der Elektroden.Another essential feature of the invention is that when contacting the compensating element with corresponding electrodes, in particular the contact areas or receiving areas for the electrodes on the compensating element are formed with a high mass or relatively thick. This results in a low current density density in this area, so that it leads to the compensation element only to a slight warming. Consequently, in particular even at high utilization, heating with a corresponding compensating element according to the invention requires no separate cooling in the region of the connection of the electrodes.
Die erfindungsgemäße Erwärmungsvorrichtung ist insbesondere in eine Produktionslinie zur Herstellung von warmumgeformten und pressgehärteten oder aber vergüteten Blechbauteilen, bevorzugt Stahlblechbauteilen integrierbar, wobei eine Erwärmung innerhalb kürzester Zeit, insbesondere im Produktionstakt durchführbar ist. Bevorzugt wird dazu die Erwärmungsvorrichtung an einem Industrieroboter befestigt, so dass diese als Manipulator bzw. Transportvorrichtung nutzbar ist. Insbesondere wird dazu eine Erwärmungsvorrichtung genutzt, um die Blechplatine von einem Stapel oder aber Band aufzunehmen und zu einer weiteren Verarbeitungsvorrichtung, insbesondere einer Warmumformpresse unter gleichzeitiger Erwärmung während des Transportes zu transportieren.The heating device according to the invention is in particular in a production line for the production of hot-formed and press-hardened or tempered sheet metal components, preferably sheet steel components integrated, with heating within a very short time, especially in the production cycle is feasible. For this purpose, the heating device is preferably attached to an industrial robot, so that it can be used as a manipulator or transport device. In particular, a heating device is used to receive the sheet metal blank from a stack or tape and to transport to a further processing device, in particular a hot forming press with simultaneous heating during transport.
Im Rahmen der Erfindung ergibt sich als weiterer positiver Effekt, dass mitunter das Ausgleichselement eine gegenüber der Blechplatine generell größere Masse besitz, die sich ebenfalls erwärmt. Das Ausgleichselement gibt dann enthaltene Wärmeenergie zumindest teilweise durch Wärmeleitung an die Blechplatine ab, wodurch eine Verringerung der Produktionskosten zur rein konduktiven Widerstandserwärmung stattfindet. Durch gezielte Wahl der Querschnittsfläche des warmen Ausgleichselementes mithin des Ausgleichselementes während der Produktion ist es somit möglich ein Optimum zwischen Wärmeleitung und konduktiver Erwärmung aufgrund von Stromfluss durch die Blechplatine selbst einzustellen.In the context of the invention results as a further positive effect that sometimes the compensation element has a relation to the sheet metal plate generally larger mass, which also heats up. The compensation element then gives off at least some of the heat energy contained by heat conduction to the sheet metal blank, whereby a reduction of the production costs for purely conductive resistance heating takes place. By selective choice of the cross-sectional area of the warm compensation element and thus the compensation element during production, it is thus possible to set an optimum between heat conduction and conductive heating due to current flow through the sheet metal plate itself.
Weiterhin besonders bevorzugt liegt das Ausgleichselement vollflächig auf der Oberfläche der Blechplatine auf. Damit ein vollflächiges Aufliegen verbessert wird, ist insbesondere die Kontaktfläche des Ausgleichselementes zu der Blechplatine hin konkav ausgebildet. Sie weist also eine Wölbung nach innen zu dem Ausgleichselement hin auf. Die Blechplatine wird somit zu der Kontaktfläche hin angezogen.Further particularly preferably, the compensation element lies on the entire surface of the surface of the sheet metal blank. Thus, a full-surface contact is improved, in particular, the contact surface of the compensation element to the sheet metal plate is concave. So it has a curvature inwards to the compensation element out. The sheet metal plate is thus attracted to the contact surface.
Alternativ oder aber ergänzend kann weiterhin besonders bevorzugt über das Ausgleichselement eine entsprechende Pressenkraft aufgebracht werden, so dass in der sich zwischen Ausgleichselement und Platine ergebenden Anlagefläche ein Spalt auf null reduziert wird und somit ein nahezu vollständiger Anlagekontakt gegeben ist. Weiterhin besonders bevorzugt ist das Ausgleichselement Teil eines Presswerkzeuges bzw. einer Temperierstation, so dass die Platine in die Temperierstation eingelegt wird und dann ein entsprechender Anpressdruck aufgebracht wird.Alternatively or additionally, a corresponding pressing force can furthermore be applied particularly preferably via the compensating element, so that a gap is reduced to zero in the contact surface resulting between the compensating element and the board, and thus an almost complete contact is achieved. Further particularly preferably, the compensation element is part of a pressing tool or a tempering station, so that the board is inserted into the tempering and then a corresponding contact pressure is applied.
Damit die vollflächige Anlage weiterhin verstärkt wird, ist im Rahmen der Erfindung vorgesehen, dass in dem Ausgleichselement Unterdruckkanäle vorhanden sind, so dass bei Beaufschlagen der Unterdruckkanäle mit einem Unterdruck ein Sogeffekt zum Anziehen der Blechplatine an das Ausgleichselement genutzt wird.Thus, the full-surface system continues to be reinforced, it is provided in the invention that in the compensation element vacuum channels are present, so that when applied to the vacuum channels with a negative pressure, a suction effect for tightening the sheet metal plate is used to the compensation element.
Ergänzend oder alternativ ist es möglich, dass das Ausgleichselement über mechanische Greifer verfügt, beispielsweise als Zangen, die die Randseite der Blechplatine umfassen.Additionally or alternatively, it is possible that the compensation element has mechanical grippers, for example as pliers, which comprise the edge side of the sheet metal blank.
Um die Blechplatine nach erfolgtem Transport und/oder Erwärmung abzulegen bzw. abzustoßen sind weiterhin bevorzugt Ausdrücker bzw. Druckstößel vorgesehen, die die Blechplatine an dem Ablageort entgegen der Haltekraft abstoßen.In order to deposit or repel the sheet metal plate after the transport and / or heating have taken place, ejectors or pressure rams are furthermore preferably provided which repel the sheet metal blank against the holding force at the storage location.
Weiterhin bevorzugt ist im Rahmen der Erfindung zur Einleitung des elektrischen Stromes vorgesehen, dass die Blechplatine an jeweils gegenüberliegenden Enden mit einer Elektrode kontaktierbar ist, wobei entweder nur die Blechplatine kontaktiert ist oder alternativ auch die Blechplatine sowie das Ausgleichselement jeweils zumindest teilweise durch die gegenüberliegenden Elektroden kontaktiert sind. Durch entsprechende Wahl, gerade der prozentualen Verteilung, ist es möglich die Stromflussdichte an den Einleitpunkten zu Blechplatine und Ausgleichselement gezielt derart zu verteilen, dass auch in den Endbereichen der Blechplatine eine gezielte Beeinflussung der konduktiven Erwärmung ermöglicht ist. Bevorzugt ist das Ausgleichselement mit Elektroden versehen, so dass der elektrische Stromfluss von den Ausgleichselementen an die Platine weitergegeben wird.Furthermore, it is preferably provided in the context of the invention for the introduction of the electric current that the metal sheet is contacted at each opposite ends with an electrode, either only the sheet metal blank is contacted or alternatively contacted the sheet metal blank and the compensating element at least partially by the opposite electrodes are. By appropriate choice, especially the percentage distribution, it is possible to selectively distribute the current density density at the points of introduction to sheet metal blank and compensation element such that a targeted influencing of the conductive heating is also made possible in the end regions of the sheet metal blank. Preferably, the compensation element is provided with electrodes, so that the electrical current flow is passed from the compensation elements to the board.
Weiterhin besonders bevorzugt ist das Ausgleichselement aus zunderbeständigem Stahlwerkstoff ausgebildet oder weist eine zunderbeständige Beschichtung auf, so dass eine Verzunderung während des Betriebs der Temperiervorrichtung stattfindet. Bevorzugt ist dann die Kontaktfläche der Temperiervorrichtung in elektrisch leitendem Kontakt mit der Blechplatine. Beispielsweise kann das Ausgleichselement auch zumindest teilweise aus Kohlenstoff oder Halbleitermaterialen ausgebildet sein.Furthermore, particularly preferably, the compensation element is made of scale-resistant steel material or has a scale-resistant coating, so that a scaling takes place during operation of the temperature control. Preferably, then, the contact surface of the temperature control in electrically conductive contact with the sheet metal blank. For example, the compensation element can also be formed at least partially from carbon or semiconductor materials.
Die Querschnittsfläche des Ausgleichselementes kann durch gezielte Variation der Höhe oder aber der Breite des Ausgleichselementes eingestellt werden. Weiterhin besonders bevorzugt sind zwei Ausgleichselemente vorgesehen, so dass die Oberseite aber auch die Unterseite einer Blechplatine mithin die zwei Hauptoberflächen der Blechplatine von jeweils einem Ausgleichselement kontaktiert sind. Die Querschnittsflächen, der in diesem Fall zwei Ausgleichselementen, addiert mit der Querschnittsfläche der Blechplatine bilden dann wiederum die Stromleitquerschnittsfläche, welche ganz besonders bevorzugt im Rahmen der Erfindung konstant ist, um eine homogene Erwärmung der Blechplatine zu erreichen.The cross-sectional area of the compensating element can be adjusted by targeted variation of the height or the width of the compensating element. Further particularly preferably, two compensation elements are provided, so that the upper side but also the underside of a sheet metal blank thus the two main surfaces of the sheet metal blank are each contacted by a compensation element. The cross-sectional areas, in this case two compensating elements, added with the cross-sectional area of the sheet metal blank then in turn form the Stromleitquerschnittsfläche, which is very particularly preferably constant in the context of the invention to achieve a homogeneous heating of the sheet metal blank.
Weiterhin besonders bevorzugt kann an der der Blechplatine gegenüberliegenden Seite des Ausgleichselementes eine Lastverteilplatte angeordnet sein, die das Ausgleichselement zum einen stabilisiert, zum anderen die auf die Blechplatine aufgebrachten Kräfte während der Aufnahme gezielt beeinflusst, insbesondere homogenisiert. Auch hier kann eine Lastverteilerplatte wiederum mit dem entsprechenden Ausgleichselement sowie gegebenenfalls optional dazwischen angeordneter Isolierlage in eine Temperierstation oder aber eine Presse angeordnet werden, so dass ein gleichmäßiger Anlage- bzw. Anpressdruck vorherrscht und somit eine elektrische Leitfähigkeit hergestellt ist.Furthermore, particularly preferably, a load distribution plate can be arranged on the side of the compensating element opposite the metal sheet, which on the one hand stabilizes the compensating element and, on the other hand, selectively influences, in particular homogenizes, the forces applied to the sheet metal plate during the recording. Again, a load distribution plate in turn with the corresponding compensation element and optionally optionally arranged therebetween insulating layer in a tempering or a press are arranged so that a uniform contact or contact pressure prevails and thus an electrical conductivity is established.
Weiterhin besonders bevorzugt kann in der Verwendung von zwei Ausgleichselementen die jeweils gegenüberliegende Querschnittsfläche der zwei Ausgleichselemente voneinander verschieden sein. Auch hierdurch ist es wiederum möglich gezielt die zu erreichende Erwärmung einzustellen.With particular preference, in the use of two compensating elements, the respectively opposite cross-sectional area of the two compensating elements can be different from one another. As a result, it is again possible to specifically set the heating to be achieved.

Ferner weist die Blechplatine 1 eine homogene Wanddicke 4 über ihre gesamte Länge 5 auf. Die Blechplatine 1 weist jedoch eine voneinander verschiedene Breite 6 auf, so dass die Breite 6.1 an einer Seite deutlich kleiner ist als die Breite 6.2 auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite, wobei wiederum im Bereich einer Ausnehmung 7 eine hiervon verschiedene Breite 6.3 zusammensetzend aus den Breiten 6.31 und 6.32 sich ergibt.
