Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for producing a component of a laundry drum of a household appliance from a sheet metal element which is formed into a hollow cylinder-like body, is connected to two opposite sides of the sheet metal element and is deformed, according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the invention also relates to a drum base produced by this method, a laundry drum with such a drum base and a household appliance with such a laundry drum.
- Household appliances for the care of laundry items such as washing machines, clothes dryers and washing (full) dryer, each containing a rotatably mounted in the household appliance laundry drum, in which the laundry items can be added.
- An exemplary construction of a laundry drum is in Fig. 1 illustrated.
- the laundry drum generally designated 1 usually consists of three interconnected components, namely a circular cylindrical drum shell 2, a drum rear wall 3 and a so-called drum top 4.
- the drum shell 2 is connected with its axial end faces on the one hand to the drum bottom 4 and on the other hand to the drum rear wall 3 , The connection is usually realized by means of a crimping of the respective elements.
- the drum end 4 often serves as a running surface for bearing rollers 5, which are rotatably mounted on a bearing plate 6.
- a front wall 7 of a housing is shown.
- Fig. 2 shows a section of the laundry drum 1 in a perspective view.
- the respective connection points 8, 9 can be seen, which are realized by a curling of the drum shell 2 with the drum bottom 4 on the one hand and the drum rear wall 3 on the other.
- the laundry drum 1 is usually designed both in terms of load and cost-efficient, which is achieved by a sheet thickness variation in the different components 2, 3, 4.
- the forehead bottom 4 for reasons of stability is made of a sheet metal element of thickness 0.6 mm
- the drum shell 2 and the drum rear wall 3 can be formed from a sheet of lesser thickness, namely, for example, 0.4 mm or 0.5 mm.
- drum end base 4 the production of the drum end base 4, wherein the production is also applicable to a drum rear wall 3.
- the drum end floor and the drum rear wall can also be referred to hereinafter only as drum base.
- the drum bottom 4 and / or the drum rear wall 3 is produced in tumble dryers, washing machines and dryers by a three-stage forming process with subsequent crimping of the edge.
- circular blanks are used.
- Such a circular sheet metal element 10, from which the drum top 4 is made, is in Fig. 3 shown schematically.
- This circular sheet metal element 10 is according to Fig. 4 subjected to a first deep-drawing process.
- the deep-drawn sheet metal element 10 is subjected to a separation process in which a circular central region of the sheet metal element 10 is punched out. This creates a passage opening through which the items of laundry can be introduced into the drum 1.
- the sheet metal element 10 after this separation process is in Fig. 5 shown schematically.
- a second deep drawing of the sheet metal element 10 takes place, so that a drum end floor 4 is provided, as it is in Fig. 6 is shown.
- a major disadvantage of the existing process chain is also the production-related introduction of the highest degrees of deformation and residual stresses in the area of the flange 8, 9 (see. Fig. 2 ).
- relatively high demands are made on robustness the crimping process with regard to the resulting flare geometry, which has a crucial importance for the life of the drum end floor.
- precisely this region which is heavily loaded from the production process by the crimp, serves as running surface for the front drum bearings or the rollers 5 (cf. Fig. 1 ) and thus has a supporting function. Due to the high loads from the forming process in the production of the laundry drum, the risk of premature failure in the operation of the household appliance is relatively large, which reduces the life of the entire household appliance.
- a method for producing a drum shell of a laundry drum of a washing machine known.
- a hollow cylindrical shell is rounded from a sheet metal blank and welded to its abutting edges.
- This hollow cylinder is reshaped in a further step by means of an expansion process, for example, to introduce bevels at the two edges of the drum shell.
- a disadvantage of this method is that the material can not be reshaped so far as to form the same complete drum bottom.
- this known method is used only for the production of the drum shell and in a further step, a separate drum base must continue to be manufactured and connected to the drum shell. This is done, for example, as already described above.
- the component should be produced with as little waste.
- the degrees of deformation and thus the formation of high residual stresses should be reduced.
- An inventive method is used to produce a component for a laundry drum of a household appliance from a sheet metal element.
- a hollow cylinder of similar body in particular a hollow cylinder and preferably a hollow circular cylinder, is used as the sheet metal element and the component forms a drum base.
- the drum bottom can be either a drum top or a drum back wall or both.
- Essential for the invention is that for the production of the drum base, a hollow cylinder similar body is used, which is formed by the connection of two opposite sides of the sheet metal element.
- a body similar to a hollow cylinder is understood to mean a body whose sectional surfaces are circular or elliptical with the sectional planes running perpendicular to its central cylinder axis, wherein the shape and size of the cut surfaces along the cylinder axis may be different.
- the hollow cylinder-like body can therefore not only have a purely circular cylindrical surface but also a frustoconical surface.
- the drum base is produced by forming the sheet metal element or the hollow cylinder-like body. It is first produced from a flat sheet metal element by connecting two opposite sides of the hollow cylinder similar body, which is then formed in at least one further step to the drum base. Alternatively, a corresponding deformation, in particular by means of a so-called roll forming, can take place already during the molding of the hollow cylinder-like body, wherein the already formed sheet metal element is then connected in a further step on two opposite sides. It can then be performed after joining another forming step to achieve even higher Umformtrade. If after the bonding no further forming step is to take place, the sheet metal strip is formed before connecting the narrow sides in the shape of the drum base, being prepared by the step of connecting the narrow sides of the preformed sheet metal element ready drum bottom.
- the hollow cylinder similar body is also referred to only as a hollow cylinder.
- the invention makes use of the way of using a hollow cylinder as the starting geometry for the production process of the drum base.
- a hollow cylinder ensures that the material waste can be minimized to a minimum, even zero, thereby enabling a cost-efficient production of the drum base. Namely, it does not need to be stamped out areas of the sheet metal element, so that in principle the material provided - especially stainless steel, such as 1.4016 or 1.4510 - can be fully utilized.
- the induced by the proposed manufacturing process loads in the field of flanging are namely significantly lower compared to the prior art, whereby a reduction in the risk of premature failure of the frontal floor can be achieved.
- the forehead bottom is very often used as a running surface for the rollers (cf. Fig. 1 ), and it should be ensured for this reason that the front floor can withstand greater forces in the operation of the household appliance. In the case of the method according to the invention, this is made possible by the fact that, in the manufacture of the forehead bottom, this overall significantly lower load is applied in the area of the flange than is the case in the prior art.
- An FE process analysis (finite element method) has shown that the degree of deformation can be minimized, in particular in the area of the crimp with the drum shell.
- An FLC (Forming Limit Curve) analysis based on the FE results obtained has also shown that the process robustness in the method according to the invention is markedly improved compared to the conventional production method.
- the drum base is preferably a drum end floor (see Fig. 4 in Fig. 1 ).
- the drum back wall (3 in Fig. 1 ) using a hollow cylinder, although the drum rear wall has an opening in a central area. This would be the case, for example, if the drum rear wall substantially corresponds to the drum end wall and thus also has a central opening.
- the central opening of the drum rear wall could be closed by a fixed part of the housing of the household appliance.
- both the drum top floor and the drum rear wall could each have a running surface for the rollers for rotatably supporting the drum.
- the production of the drum base also includes the production of the hollow cylinder itself.
- the hollow cylinder is made from a sheet metal strip.
- a sheet metal strip whose width is 100 mm and whose length is 1575 mm can be used.
- the thickness of the sheet used can be 0.6 mm.
- the material waste can be further reduced if the sheet metal strip is separated directly from a sheet metal coil by means of a production-related separation process.
- the preparation of the hollow cylinder can therefore be made without waste directly from the coil.
- the production of the hollow cylinder preferably provides that the sheet metal strip is rolled round and / or bent.
- the hollow cylinder can thus be produced by round rollers and / or by bending the metal strip.
- the production of the hollow cylinder can thus be made without much effort and automated.
- two opposite narrow sides of the metal strip are connected in particular by welding material fit together.
- a suitable welding method a technology analysis was carried out in this respect, in which the basic applicability of plasma welding, in particular micro-plasma welding, and laser welding was demonstrated both on the previously used material and on alternative materials.
- the two narrow sides of the metal strip can thus be connected to one another in an advantageous manner by means of a laser welding device and / or a plasma welding device.
- the production can thus be automated; On the other hand, this also the required stability and robustness of the hollow cylinder is achieved.
- the hollow cylinder thus produced can then already form the bottom of the drum or be formed into the bottom of the drum:
- the reshaping of the hollow cylinder may initially involve that, in order to produce a funnel shape of the sheet metal element, an axial cylinder section of the hollow cylinder is widened radially outward. In this way, the required funnel shape of the drum base can be produced without much manufacturing effort.
- the funnel shape of the sheet metal element may be produced by already deforming the sheet metal strip into the funnel shape during rolling or bending, and subsequently joining the thus formed sheet metal strip to two opposing sides. These sides to be joined are preferably bevelled beforehand to avoid uneven material overhang.
- the particular advantage of this alternative is that only very small deformations of the sheet metal strip are required for the production of the funnel shape, whereby the process robustness for the production of the drum base can be significantly increased.
- a funnel shape has proved advantageous when an angle of 45 ° to 55 °, in particular an angle of 50 °, is generated between a lateral surface of this cylinder section on the one hand and the cylinder axis on the other hand, in particular by widening of the cylinder section.
- This angular range represents a good compromise between the required shape of the sheet metal element on the one hand and the deformation degrees caused in the process on the other hand. It has been found that at an angle in the range of 45 ° to 55 ° no critical degrees of deformation are caused and the required process robustness not being affected.
- the expansion of the cylinder portion is performed in at least two stages. In this way, the material is much less burdened compared to a single-stage expansion, which proves to be particularly particularly in terms of the life of the laundry drum to be particularly advantageous. On the other hand, a larger angle when expanding the cylinder portion can thus be achieved overall.
- the cylinder portion is expanded by a larger angle than a second stage flaring operation.
- This embodiment makes use of the fact that the load of the material increases at a larger angle and thus in the first stage Overall, a larger angle can be achieved without significantly affecting the stability of the material.
- the first and optionally second expansion step can be omitted.
- the forming of the sheet metal element may further include deep drawing of the sheet metal element.
- This deep-drawing process is preferably carried out after production of the funnel shape of the sheet metal element, in particular after the widening of the cylinder section, so that the deep drawing is subjected to the already expanded or funnel-shaped sheet metal element.
- This method differs from that DE 100 21 456 A1 known method also characterized in that no expansion process is required for the production of the drum base.
- the special distribution is that during deep drawing compared to the expansion process higher cycle times for the production of the drum base can be achieved.
- the invention may also include a method which is used for producing a laundry drum for a domestic appliance, wherein the laundry drum is produced from a drum base produced by a method according to the invention, which is connected to a cylindrical drum shell, in particular by means of crimping is connected.
- the invention also relates to a drum base produced by the method according to the invention and a laundry drum for a domestic appliance for the care of laundry items, with a cylindrical drum shell which is connected at at least one of its axial end faces with such drum base.
- the laundry drum can also at both its axial (front) sides after Having drum base produced by the process according to the invention. This is particularly advantageous if the drum rear wall corresponds in shape to the end wall.
- the rear wall of the drum also has an opening corresponding to the passage opening of the end wall, which may be closed by a fixed housing part of the household appliance.

- the household appliance may be a tumble dryer, a washing machine or a washer-dryer.
- laundry drum and the domestic appliance according to the invention may comprise the device features disclosed by the method according to the invention or directly derived therefrom.
- Fig. 10 shows a flowchart of a manufacturing method according to a first embodiment of the invention.
- a drum top 4 is made as in Fig. 1 is shown.
- the method begins in a first step S1, in which a metal strip is separated from a sheet metal coil or a strip material, for example by means of laser cutting or the like.
- the provided metal strip may have, for example dimensions of 100 x 1575 mm.
- As a band material the material 1.4016 or 1.4510 can be used, in general terms, stainless steel is used.
- the sheet thickness can be 0.6 mm.
- the metal strip is preferably a rectangular element.
- the metal strip now designated 11 is rolled round, so that the shape of a straight hollow circular cylinder is produced.
- the hollow cylinder is produced by opposite narrow sides 12, 13 of the sheet metal strip 11 are welded together.
- a laser welding device or a plasma welding machine is used.
- Fig. 7 is an axial cylinder portion 14 of the in Fig. 7 Flared with 15 designated hollow cylinder radially outwardly widened.
- the hollow cylinder 15 represents a sheet metal element 16, which is the basis of the production of the drum end base 4.
- the sheet metal element 16 as shown in FIG Fig. 8 shown subjected to a deep drawing process.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Herstellen eines Bauteils einer Wäschetrommel eines Haushaltsgeräts aus einem Blechelement, welches zu einem Hohlzylinder ähnlichen Körper geformt ist, an zwei gegenüberliegenden Seiten des Blechelements verbunden ist und umgeformt wird, gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1. Die Erfindung betrifft außerdem einen nach diesem Verfahren hergestellten Trommelboden, eine Wäschetrommel mit einem solchen Trommelboden sowie ein Haushaltsgerät mit einer derartigen Wäschetrommel.The invention relates to a method for producing a component of a laundry drum of a household appliance from a sheet metal element which is formed into a hollow cylinder-like body, is connected to two opposite sides of the sheet metal element and is deformed, according to the preamble of
Haushaltsgeräte zur Pflege von Wäschestücken, wie Waschmaschinen, Wäschetrockner und Wasch(voll)trockner, beinhalten jeweils eine drehbar in dem Haushaltsgerät gelagerte Wäschetrommel, in welche die Wäschestücke aufgenommen werden können. Ein beispielhafter Aufbau einer Wäschetrommel ist in
Vorliegend richtet sich das Interesse auf die Herstellung des Trommelstirnbodens 4, wobei die Herstellung auch bei einer Trommelrückwand 3 anwendbar ist. Der Trommelstirnboden und die Trommelrückwand können im Weiteren auch nur als Trommelboden bezeichnet sein.In the present case, the interest is directed to the production of the
Im Stand der Technik wird der Trommelstirnboden 4 und/oder die Trommelrückwand 3 bei Wäschetrocknern, Waschmaschinen und Waschtrocknern durch einen dreistufigen Umformprozess mit anschließender Bördelung des Randes hergestellt. Als Ausgangsgeometrie für diesen Herstellungsprozess werden kreisförmige Blechronden verwendet. Ein solches kreisförmiges Blechelement 10, aus welchem der Trommelstirnboden 4 hergestellt wird, ist in
Während des Herstellungsprozesses wird also lediglich der äußere Ring der verwendeten Ronden für den Trommelstirnboden weiter verwendet. Der Großteil der Ronde - nämlich circa 60% - wird ausgestanzt und gilt dann als Verschnitt. In der Herstellung von Wäschetrocknern wird aus diesem Verschnitt ein weiteres Bauteil, der so genannte Klemmring, hergestellt. Jedoch beträgt der Verschnittanteil auch in diesem günstigeren Fall circa 47%.During the manufacturing process so only the outer ring of the discs used for the drum head is still used. The majority of the round plate - namely about 60% - is punched out and is then considered as a blend. In the production of tumble dryers, another component, the so-called clamping ring, is produced from this blend. However, the proportion of waste in this cheaper case is about 47%.
Ein großer Nachteil der bestehenden Prozesskette ist außerdem die fertigungsbedingte Einbringung der höchsten Umformgrade und Eigenspannungen im Bereich der Bördelung 8, 9 (vgl.
Ferner ist aus der gattungsbildenden
Es ist Aufgabe der Erfindung, ein gegenüber dem Stand der Technik verbessertes Verfahren zum Herstellen eines Bauteils einer Wäschetrommel eines Haushaltsgeräts, einen Trommelboden, eine Wäschetrommel sowie ein Haushaltsgerät bereitzustellen Insbesondere soll das Bauteil mit möglichst wenig Verschnitt herstellbar sein. Ferner sollen die Umformgrade und somit die Ausbildung hoher Eigenspannungen reduziert werden.It is an object of the invention to provide a comparison with the prior art improved method for producing a component of a laundry drum of a household appliance, a drum base, a laundry drum and a household appliance. In particular, the component should be produced with as little waste. Furthermore, the degrees of deformation and thus the formation of high residual stresses should be reduced.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfingdungsgemäß durch ein Verfahren, durch einen nach diesem Verfahren hergestellten Trommelboden, durch eine Wäschetrommel sowie durch ein Haushaltsgerät mit den Merkmalen gemäß den jeweiligen unabhängigen Patentansprüchen 1, 12, 13 und 14 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausführungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der abhängigen Patentansprüche, der Beschreibung und der Figuren.This object is achieved according to the invention by a method, by a drum base produced by this method, by a laundry drum and by a household appliance with the features according to the respective
Ein erfindungsgemäßes Verfahren dient zum Herstellen eines Bauteils für eine Wäschetrommel eines Haushaltsgeräts aus einem Blechelement. Erfindungsgemäß ist vorgesehen, dass als das Blechelement ein Hohlzylinder ähnlicher Körper, insbesondere ein Hohlzylinder und bevorzugt ein Hohlkreiszylinder, verwendet wird und das Bauteil einen Trommelboden bildet. Der Trommelboden kann sowohl ein Trommelstirnboden oder eine Trommelrückwand oder beides sein. Wesentlich für die Erfindung ist, dass zur Herstellung des Trommelbodens ein Hohlzylinder ähnliche Körper verwendet wird, der durch die Verbindung zweier sich gegenüberliegenden Seiten des Blechelements gebildet wird. Unter einem Hohlzylinder ähnlichen Körper wird ein Körper verstanden, dessen Schnittflächen mit den senkrecht zu seiner zentralen Zylinderachse verlaufenden Schnittebenen kreisförmig oder elliptisch sind, wobei die Form und Größe der Schnittflächen längs der Zylinderachse unterschiedlich sein können. Der Hohlzylinder ähnliche Körper kann demnach nicht nur eine rein kreiszylinderförmige Mantelfläche sondern auch eine kegelstumpfförmige Mantelfläche aufweisen.An inventive method is used to produce a component for a laundry drum of a household appliance from a sheet metal element. According to the invention, it is provided that a hollow cylinder of similar body, in particular a hollow cylinder and preferably a hollow circular cylinder, is used as the sheet metal element and the component forms a drum base. The drum bottom can be either a drum top or a drum back wall or both. Essential for the invention is that for the production of the drum base, a hollow cylinder similar body is used, which is formed by the connection of two opposite sides of the sheet metal element. A body similar to a hollow cylinder is understood to mean a body whose sectional surfaces are circular or elliptical with the sectional planes running perpendicular to its central cylinder axis, wherein the shape and size of the cut surfaces along the cylinder axis may be different. The hollow cylinder-like body can therefore not only have a purely circular cylindrical surface but also a frustoconical surface.
Ferner wird der Trommelboden durch Umformen des Blechelements bzw. des Hohlzylinder ähnlichen Körpers hergestellt. Es wird erst aus einem flachen Blechelement durch Verbinden zweier gegenüberliegenden Seiten der Hohlzylinder ähnliche Körper hergestellt, der dann in zumindest einem weiteren Schritt zu dem Trommelboden umgeformt wird. Alternativ kann bereits beim Formen des Hohlzylinder ähnlichen Körpers eine entsprechende Umformung, insbesondere mittels einer so genannten Rollformung, erfolgen, wobei das bereits umgeformte Blechelement dann in einem weiteren Schritt an zwei gegenüberliegenden Seiten verbunden wird. Es kann dann nach dem Verbinden ein weiterer Umformschritt ausgeführt werden, um noch höhere Umformgerade zu erzielen. Wenn nach dem Verbinden kein weiterer Umformschritt erfolgen soll, wird der Blechstreifen bereits vor dem Verbinden der Schmalseiten in die Form des Trommelbodens umgeformt, wobei durch den Schritt des Verbindens der Schmalseiten des vorgeformten Blechelements derfertige Trommelboden hergestellt wird.Furthermore, the drum base is produced by forming the sheet metal element or the hollow cylinder-like body. It is first produced from a flat sheet metal element by connecting two opposite sides of the hollow cylinder similar body, which is then formed in at least one further step to the drum base. Alternatively, a corresponding deformation, in particular by means of a so-called roll forming, can take place already during the molding of the hollow cylinder-like body, wherein the already formed sheet metal element is then connected in a further step on two opposite sides. It can then be performed after joining another forming step to achieve even higher Umformtrade. If after the bonding no further forming step is to take place, the sheet metal strip is formed before connecting the narrow sides in the shape of the drum base, being prepared by the step of connecting the narrow sides of the preformed sheet metal element ready drum bottom.
Nachfolgend wird der Hohlzylinder ähnliche Körper auch nur noch als Hohlzylinder bezeichnet.Subsequently, the hollow cylinder similar body is also referred to only as a hollow cylinder.
Statt eine Ronde als Ausgangsgeometrie für die Herstellung des Trommelbodens zu verwenden, geht die Erfindung den Weg, als Ausgangsgeometrie für den Herstellungsprozess des Trommelbodens einen Hohlzylinder zu nutzen. Eine solche Vorgehensweise hat diverse Vorteile: Zum einen wird durch die Verwendung eines Hohlzylinders erreicht, dass der Materialverschnitt auf ein Minimum - sogar auf null - minimiert werden kann, wodurch eine kosteneffiziente Herstellung des Trommelbodens ermöglicht wird. Es brauchen nämlich keine Bereiche des Blechelements ausgestanzt zu werden, sodass grundsätzlich das bereitgestellte Material - insbesondere Edelstahl, wie beispielsweise 1.4016 oder 1.4510 - vollständig ausgenutzt werden kann. Zum anderen besteht eine erhebliche Verbesserung gegenüber dem Stand der Technik in der Erhöhung der Prozessrobustheit. Die durch den vorgeschlagenen Fertigungsprozess induzierten Belastungen im Bereich der Bördelung sind nämlich im Vergleich zum Stand der Technik deutlich geringer, wodurch auch eine Verringerung der Gefahr eines frühzeitigen Ausfalls des Stirnbodens erreicht werden kann. Wie oben bereits ausgeführt, wird der Stirnboden nämlich sehr oft als eine Lauffläche für die Rollen (vgl.
Der Trommelboden ist vorzugsweise ein Trommelstirnboden (vgl. 4 in
In einer Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, dass das Herstellen des Trommelbodens auch das Herstellen des Hohlzylinders selbst beinhaltet. Der Hohlzylinder wird dabei aus einem Blechstreifen hergestellt. Es kann beispielsweise ein Blechstreifen verwendet werden, dessen Breite 100 mm und dessen Länge 1575 mm beträgt. Die Stärke des verwendeten Bleches kann 0,6 mm betragen.In one embodiment it is provided that the production of the drum base also includes the production of the hollow cylinder itself. The hollow cylinder is made from a sheet metal strip. For example, a sheet metal strip whose width is 100 mm and whose length is 1575 mm can be used. The thickness of the sheet used can be 0.6 mm.
Der Materialverschnitt kann gegebenenfalls weiter reduziert werden, wenn der Blechstreifen mittels eines fertigungstechnischen Trennverfahrens direkt von einem Blechcoil getrennt wird. Die Herstellung des Hohlzylinders kann daher abfallfrei direkt vom Coil erfolgen.If necessary, the material waste can be further reduced if the sheet metal strip is separated directly from a sheet metal coil by means of a production-related separation process. The preparation of the hollow cylinder can therefore be made without waste directly from the coil.
Die Herstellung des Hohlzylinders sieht vorzugsweise so aus, dass der Blechstreifen rundgewalzt und/oder gebogen wird. Der Hohlzylinder kann also durch Rundwalzen und/oder durch Biegen des Blechstreifens hergestellt werden. Die Herstellung des Hohlzylinders kann somit ohne viel Aufwand und automatisiert vorgenommen werden.The production of the hollow cylinder preferably provides that the sheet metal strip is rolled round and / or bent. The hollow cylinder can thus be produced by round rollers and / or by bending the metal strip. The production of the hollow cylinder can thus be made without much effort and automated.
Bevorzugt werden beim Herstellen des Hohlzylinders bzw. des Hohlzylinder ähnlichen Körpers zwei gegenüberliegende Schmalseiten des Blechstreifens insbesondere durch Schweißen stoffschlüssig miteinander verbunden. Zur Auswahl eines geeigneten Schweißverfahrens wurde diesbezüglich eine Technologieanalyse durchgeführt, in welcher die grundsätzliche Anwendbarkeit von Plasmaschweißen, insbesondere Mikroplasmaschweißen, und Laserschweißen sowohl auf den bisher verwendeten Werkstoff als auch auf alternative Werkstoffe gezeigt wurde. Die beiden Schmalseiten des Blechstreifens können also in vorteilhafter Weise mittels eines Laserschweißgeräts und/oder eines Plasmaschweißgeräts miteinander verbunden werden. Einerseits kann die Fertigung somit automatisiert werden; andererseits wird dadurch auch die benötigte Stabilität und Robustheit des Hohlzylinders erreicht.Preferably, in the manufacture of the hollow cylinder or the hollow cylinder similar body, two opposite narrow sides of the metal strip are connected in particular by welding material fit together. To select a suitable welding method, a technology analysis was carried out in this respect, in which the basic applicability of plasma welding, in particular micro-plasma welding, and laser welding was demonstrated both on the previously used material and on alternative materials. The two narrow sides of the metal strip can thus be connected to one another in an advantageous manner by means of a laser welding device and / or a plasma welding device. On the one hand, the production can thus be automated; On the other hand, this also the required stability and robustness of the hollow cylinder is achieved.
Der so hergestellte Hohlzylinder kann dann schon den Trommelboden bilden oder zu dem Trommelboden umgeformt werden:The hollow cylinder thus produced can then already form the bottom of the drum or be formed into the bottom of the drum:
Das Umformen des Hohlzylinders kann zunächst beinhalten, dass zur Erzeugung einer Trichterform des Blechelements ein axialer Zylinderabschnitt des Hohlzylinders radial nach außen hin aufgeweitet wird. Auf diese Art und Weise kann die benötigte Trichterform des Trommelbodens ohne viel Herstellungsaufwand erzeugt werden.The reshaping of the hollow cylinder may initially involve that, in order to produce a funnel shape of the sheet metal element, an axial cylinder section of the hollow cylinder is widened radially outward. In this way, the required funnel shape of the drum base can be produced without much manufacturing effort.
Alternativ kann die Trichterform des Blechelements dadurch erzeugt werden, dass der Blechstreifen beim Walzen oder Biegen bereits in die Trichterform umgeformt wird und der so umgeformte Blechstreifen anschließend an zwei gegenüberliedenden Seiten verbunden wird. Diese zu verbindenden Seiten sind bevorzugt vorher abgeschrägt, um einen ungleichmäßigen Materialüberstand zu vermeiden. Der besondere Vorteil dieser Alternative ist, dass zur Herstellung der Trichterform nur sehr geringe Umformungen des Blechstreifens erforderlich sind, wodurch die Prozessrobustheit zur Herstellung des Trommelbodens deutlich erhöht werden kann.Alternatively, the funnel shape of the sheet metal element may be produced by already deforming the sheet metal strip into the funnel shape during rolling or bending, and subsequently joining the thus formed sheet metal strip to two opposing sides. These sides to be joined are preferably bevelled beforehand to avoid uneven material overhang. The particular advantage of this alternative is that only very small deformations of the sheet metal strip are required for the production of the funnel shape, whereby the process robustness for the production of the drum base can be significantly increased.
Es hat sich eine Trichterform als vorteilhaft erwiesen, wenn ein Winkel von 45° bis 55°, insbesondere ein Winkel von 50°, zwischen einer Mantelfläche dieses Zylinderabschnitts einerseits und der Zylinderachse andererseits, insbesondere durch Aufweiten des Zylinderabschnitts, erzeugt wird. Dieser Winkelbereich stellt einen guten Kompromiss zwischen der erforderlichen Form des Blechelements einerseits und den im Prozess verursachten Umformgraden andererseits dar. Es hat sich nämlich herausgestellt, dass bei einem Winkel im Bereich von 45° bis 55° keine kritischen Umformgrade verursacht werden und die benötigte Prozessrobustheit nicht beeinflusst wird.A funnel shape has proved advantageous when an angle of 45 ° to 55 °, in particular an angle of 50 °, is generated between a lateral surface of this cylinder section on the one hand and the cylinder axis on the other hand, in particular by widening of the cylinder section. This angular range represents a good compromise between the required shape of the sheet metal element on the one hand and the deformation degrees caused in the process on the other hand. It has been found that at an angle in the range of 45 ° to 55 ° no critical degrees of deformation are caused and the required process robustness not being affected.
Es ist bevorzugt, wenn das Aufweiten des Zylinderabschnitts in zumindest zwei Stufen durchgeführt wird. Auf diese Art und Weise wird das Material im Vergleich zu einem einstufigen Aufweiten deutlich weniger belastet, was sich insbesondere im Hinblick auf die Lebensdauer der Wäschetrommel als besonders vorteilhaft erweist. Andererseits kann somit insgesamt ein größerer Winkel beim Aufweiten des Zylinderabschnitts erreicht werden.It is preferable if the expansion of the cylinder portion is performed in at least two stages. In this way, the material is much less burdened compared to a single-stage expansion, which proves to be particularly particularly in terms of the life of the laundry drum to be particularly advantageous. On the other hand, a larger angle when expanding the cylinder portion can thus be achieved overall.
Vorzugsweise wird der Zylinderabschnitt bei einem Aufweitungsvorgang einer ersten Stufe um einen größeren Winkel als bei einem Aufweitungsvorgang einer zweiten Stufe aufgeweitet. Diese Ausführungsform macht sich die Tatsache zunutze, dass mit größerem Winkel auch die Belastung des Materials größer wird und in der ersten Stufe somit insgesamt ein größerer Winkel erreicht werden kann, ohne die Stabilität des Materials wesentlich zu beeinflussen.Preferably, in a first stage flaring operation, the cylinder portion is expanded by a larger angle than a second stage flaring operation. This embodiment makes use of the fact that the load of the material increases at a larger angle and thus in the first stage Overall, a larger angle can be achieved without significantly affecting the stability of the material.
In der ersten Stufe wird beispielsweise ein Winkel von 35° bis 45°, insbesondere ein Winkel von 40°, erzeugt.In the first stage, for example, an angle of 35 ° to 45 °, in particular an angle of 40 °, generated.
Demgegenüber kann in der zweiten Stufe eine Winkeländerung von 5° bis 15°, insbesondere eine Winkeländerung von 10°, erzeugt werden,In contrast, in the second stage, an angle change of 5 ° to 15 °, in particular an angle change of 10 °, are generated,
Wird die Trichterform des Blechelements bereits beim Biegen oder Walzen des Blechstreifens hergestellt, kann die erste und gegebenenfalls zweite Ausweitungsstufe entfallen.If the funnel shape of the sheet metal element is already produced during bending or rolling of the sheet metal strip, the first and optionally second expansion step can be omitted.
Das Umformen des Blechelements kann weiterhin auch ein Tiefziehen des Blechelements umfassen. Dieser Tiefziehvorgang wird vorzugsweise nach Herstellung der Trichterform des Blechelements, insbesondere nach dem Aufweiten des Zylinderabschnitts, durchgeführt, sodass dem Tiefziehen das bereits aufgeweitete bzw. trichterförmige Blechelement unterzogen wird. Durch das Tiefziehen kann die benötigte Endform des Trommelbodens geschaffen werden. Somit unterscheidet sich dieses Verfahren von dem aus
