  • the tool comprises a die 4 with a fixed edge 6 extending longitudinally; a movable blade 8 linked to a movable arm 10 and able to be moved by said arm along the edge of the die.
  • the tool is in this case represented in a phase of positioning the blade with respect to the matrix, it comprises a template 12 mounted on the blade to ensure this positioning.
  • the template comprises a contact surface with the edge 6 of the die, this surface forming a first generally flat portion 20 resting on the upper surface of the edge 6 and a second portion 18, also generally flat, resting on the side face of the edge.
  • the first surface portion 20 is limited to adjusting the height of the blade without worrying about its inclination with respect to the upper surface of the edge 6.
  • motor vehicle bodywork elements today have complex shapes and generally have edges that are curved and/or pronouncedly curved, and the crimping of such edges is complex.
  • the object of the invention is to propose a solution overcoming at least one drawback of the aforementioned state of the art. More particularly, the object of the invention is to propose a crimping tool solution facilitating the crimping of the edges of motor vehicle bodywork elements.
  • the invention also relates to a method for developing the trajectory of a mobile crimping blade by folding stamped edges; remarkable in that it comprises the use of a crimping tool according to the invention, and comprises the following steps: i) displacement of the movable blade, equipped with the first wedge, along the bearing surface of the die in the absence of the stamping(s), the height (h) of said wedge, between the contact surface of the blade and the support surface of the die corresponding to the height of the edges of the stamping(s) crimped; ii) detection of positioning deviations between the first wedge and the support surface of the die; iii) correction of positioning deviations by translation(s) and/or pivoting(s) of a movable arm supporting the blade.
  • the step of detecting the deviations comprises the detection of positioning deviations between the second wedge and the lateral surface of the edge of the die.
  • the method further comprises a step, preceding the moving step, of applying a layer of colored pigment on the support surface and/or on the side surface of the matrix, the detection of deviations in the positioning of the blade being based on the observation of zones of no friction or insufficient friction on said layer of pigment.

It comprises a twist-shaped left surface along the longitudinal direction for gradual bending of the stamped edge during movement; the spiral-shaped surface ends in a surface portion intended to press the stamped edge.
  • the fixed edge 106 includes a side surface 114 and a bearing surface 116 adjacent to the side surface. The bearing surface is intended to receive the edge(s) of the stamping(s).

  • the tool also comprises a template 112 mounted on the blade, the template being provided to position the blade relative to the fixed edge along its movement.
  • the jig comprises a first wedge 112 1 with a contact surface 120 capable of bearing against the bearing surface 116 of the fixed edge.
  • the template 112 also includes a second wedge 112 2 with a lateral contact surface 118 capable of bearing against the lateral surface 114 of the edge.
  • the contact surface 120 extends transversely to the longitudinal direction and is at a distance from the lateral contact surface 118 in the longitudinal direction "L".
  • the second wedge 112 2 of the template 112 comprising the lateral contact surface 118 extending transversely and matching the lateral surface 114 of the edge.
  • the side surface extends transversely along the direction "K" orthogonal to the longitudinal direction.
  • the cross-sectional view “T2” presenting the contact surface 120 of the first wedge is located upstream with respect to the cross-sectional view “T1” presenting the lateral contact surface.
  • the "transversely extending" side and top contact surfaces are to be understood to extend primarily in a transverse direction. The side and top contact surfaces can form line transverse contacts.

  • the twisting surface which ends in a rear surface portion 124 intended to press the stamped edge against the bearing surface 116 of the edge.
  • the upper contact surface 120 is located longitudinally at the level of this portion 124 intended to press the stamped part.
  • This measure of the invention is very interesting to ensure a suitable positioning at this longitudinal level of the blade; the upper contact surface 120 is located longitudinally at a level where the positioning accuracy of the blade vis-à-vis the edge of the die must be suitable for pressing the edge of the stamping at the end of crimping.
  • the upper contact surface 120 in this case extends laterally over a distance “D” greater than 2 mm, preferably greater than 4 mm, more preferably still greater than 6 mm.
  • the distance "D" advantageously corresponds to more than 80% of the width average of the support surface 116.
