Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for producing a hollow shaft from a tubular preform by flow forming, wherein both ends of the preform are each formed with at least one forming roller, wherein a tubular preform with a round or polygonal cross-section is used and the preform is held by a workpiece holder in the central tube region during the entire manufacturing process up to the finished hollow shaft.
- this known method is relatively complex, since in order to carry out the various process steps it is necessary to hold the preform or the partially already formed preform in different workpiece holders one after the other, so that a continuous forming process is not possible.
- complex adjustment is required to ensure that the preform is exactly concentric with the forming rollers.
- the method is limited to tubular preforms that can be stretched by flow forming.
- the object of the invention is to further develop such a process in such a way that it enables a continuous process sequence and is universally applicable.
- This object is achieved according to the invention in a method of the type described at the outset in that an external and/or internal profiling is introduced into both ends, wherein, before the external and/or internal profiling is introduced, an optionally profiled internal mandrel is axially inserted into both ends and the two internal mandrels are connected to one another at the front in a force-fitting and/or form-fitting manner.
- the method makes it possible to carry out the entire forming process with just one workpiece holder, so that the entire forming process can run continuously. This also eliminates the need for additional adjustments that would be required when changing the workpiece holder. It is also possible to use tubular preforms with a round (circular) or polygonal cross-section, so that the hollow shaft produced in this way is suitable for various applications, e.g. for holding winding packages in an electric motor.
- the preform is set in rotation relative to at least one forming roller, for which purpose the workpiece holder with the preform and/or the at least one forming roller is driven.
- the middle tube area which is held by the workpiece holder, remains unchanged, while only the end areas are formed rotationally symmetrically, so that the middle area can, for example, hold winding packages of an electric motor without further forming. Since the middle area is not formed, no inner mandrel is required in the middle area, but inner mandrels are only inserted into the two end areas, while the preform in the middle area is held from the outside by a workpiece holder.
- Both drawn and welded tubes can be used as preforms.
- the two ends of the preform are formed at least partially simultaneously. This shortens the forming time on the one hand, and on the other hand leads to torque neutralization in the middle tube area.
- At least one end is stepped once or several times, i.e. axially adjacent areas with different diameters are created.
- the finished hollow shaft is to have an external or internal profile at both ends, it is intended that an internal mandrel is inserted into each end.
- an external profile at least one correspondingly profiled forming roller and one non-profiled internal mandrel are used, and to introduce an internal profile, at least one non-profiled forming roller and one profiled internal mandrel are used.
- the two inner mandrels are designed to be connected to one another in a force-fitting and/or form-fitting manner at the front.
- the front ends of the two inner mandrels can, for example, have a spur gear and are pressed axially against one another and thereby locked so that any lateral radial forces that arise can be absorbed.
- a tubular preform is in Fig.1 generally designated 1.
- This tubular preform 1 can be a drawn or welded tube made of metal. It is essential for the invention that the tubular preform can have any round or polygonal cross-section.
- Fig.2 It is indicated by way of example that it can have a circular, square or triangular cross-section. In general, any cross-sectional shape, preferably polygonal cross-sectional shape, is possible depending on the respective application.
- this region is suitable, for example, for receiving winding packages of an electric motor or the like without further processing.
- the invention provides that the tubular preform 1 is held in its central tube region 1a by a workpiece holder 2 throughout the entire manufacturing process up to the finished hollow shaft.
- This split, ring-shaped workpiece holder 2 accordingly has an inner contour that corresponds to the outer contour of the tubular preform 1.
- the entire process sequence can be carried out continuously without changing to another workpiece holder.
- the two ends 1b and 1c of the preform 1 are formed at least partially simultaneously by means of forming rollers generally designated 3. At least one forming roller 3 is provided for forming each of the two ends 1b, 1c. In the embodiment according to the Fig. 3 and 4 For the forming of the end 1b, three forming rollers 3 and of the end 1c a forming roller 3 is indicated.
- the forming rollers 3 are designed to be radially movable relative to the longitudinal axis 4 of the preform 1. Depending on the desired forming process, they can also be movable in the axial direction.
- the spinning rollers 3 are set in rotation relative to the workpiece holder 2 and the tubular preform 1, so that either the spinning rollers 3 or the workpiece holder 2 with the preform 1 are driven.
- the two ends 1b and 1c of the preform 1 are deformed rotationally symmetrically, ie the two ends 1b and 1c no longer have a polygonal cross-sectional shape if the original preform 1 had a polygonal cross-section.
- the polygonal cross-section is of course retained in the unprocessed central region 1a.
- the two ends 1b and 1c can be further formed without changing the workpiece holder 2.
- Fig.5 It is shown that the two ends 1b and 1c are each designed with two steps in the radial direction. These stepped areas are in Fig.5 designated 1b', 1b" and 1c', 1c".
- a profile is introduced into the two ends 1b and 1c, namely an inner profile 5 in the end 1b and an outer profile 6 on the end 1c.
- the inner profile 5 and the outer profile 6 can be a toothing, a knurling or another geometric shape.
- Fig.8 An embodiment which is not part of the invention is shown in Fig.8
- the preform 1 is held unchanged in its middle area 1a in the workpiece holder 2 and an inner mandrel 7 without profiling is axially inserted into the already stepped end 1b, while an inner mandrel 8 with external profiling 8a is inserted into the end 1c.
- Fig.8 In order to introduce an external profile 6 into the end 1b of the preform 1, at least one forming roller 9 with an external profile 9a is provided in addition to the inner mandrel 7.
- At least one forming roller 10 without an external profile is provided in addition to the inner mandrel 8 with an external profile 8a, ie the end 1c is pressed into the external profile 8a of the inner mandrel 8 by the forming roller 10, so that the internal profile 5 is created.
- Fig.8 In contrast to the embodiment according to Fig.8 are designed according to the Figs. 9 and 10 not two separate inner mandrels 7 and 8 are used, but the two inner mandrels 7' and 8' are connected to each other at the front and/or in a form-fitting manner.
- the two inner mandrels 7' and 8' each have a complementary face toothing 7a, 8a.
- the inner mandrels 7' and 8' are then pressed together in the axial direction during the forming process by applying pressure from the outside, which absorbs lateral radial forces that arise during the forming process.
- This forming process is described in the Fig. 11 and 12
- At least one forming roller 11 is used, which has a stepped, tubular outer peripheral area with a circumferential contact surface 11a. With this forming roller 11, an axial force F axial and a radial force F radial are applied to the preform 1.
- This material feed can also be carried out several times, e.g. before the actual forming of the ends 1b, 1c and afterwards.
- the entire manufacturing process can be carried out by cold forming alone. However, the forming can also take place entirely or temporarily under the influence of heat, e.g. by inductive heat generation. This allows the preform 1 to be hardened at the same time.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Herstellung einer Hohlwelle aus einer rohrförmigen Vorform durch Drückwalzen, wobei beide Enden der Vorform jeweils mit wenigstens einer Umformrolle umgeformt werden, wobei eine rohrförmige Vorform mit einem runden oder polygonalen Querschnitt verwendet und die Vorform während des gesamten Herstellprozesses bis zur fertigen Hohlwelle im mittleren Rohrbereich von einem Werkstückhalter gehalten wird.The invention relates to a method for producing a hollow shaft from a tubular preform by flow forming, wherein both ends of the preform are each formed with at least one forming roller, wherein a tubular preform with a round or polygonal cross-section is used and the preform is held by a workpiece holder in the central tube region during the entire manufacturing process up to the finished hollow shaft.
Aus
Dieses bekannte Verfahren ist jedoch relativ aufwendig, da es für die Durchführung der verschiedenen Verfahrensschritte notwendig ist, die Vorform bzw. die teilweise bereits umgeformte Vorform nacheinander in unterschiedlichen Werkstückhaltern zu halten, so dass kein kontinuierlicher Umformprozess möglich ist. Außerdem ist beim Wechsel des Werkstückhalters eine aufwendige Justierung erforderlich, um eine exakte Konzentrizität der Vorform mit den Umformrollen zu gewährleisten. Ferner ist das Verfahren auf rohrförmige Vorformen beschränkt, die durch Drückwalzen abgestreckt werden können.However, this known method is relatively complex, since in order to carry out the various process steps it is necessary to hold the preform or the partially already formed preform in different workpiece holders one after the other, so that a continuous forming process is not possible. In addition, when changing the workpiece holder, complex adjustment is required to ensure that the preform is exactly concentric with the forming rollers. Furthermore, the method is limited to tubular preforms that can be stretched by flow forming.
Ein Verfahren mit den Merkmalen des Oberbegriffs des Patentanspruchs 1 ist aus
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, ein solches Verfahren so weiterzuentwickeln, dass es einen kontinuierlichen Verfahrensablauf ermöglicht und universell einsetzbar ist.The object of the invention is to further develop such a process in such a way that it enables a continuous process sequence and is universally applicable.
Diese Aufgabe wird bei einem Verfahren der eingangs bezeichneten Art erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, dass in beide Enden eine Außen- und/oder Innenprofilierung eingebracht wird, wobei vor dem Einbringen der Außen- und/oder Innenprofilierung in beide Enden jeweils ein ggf. profilierter Innendorn axial eingeführt wird und die beiden Innendorne stirnseitig kraft- und/oder formschlüssig miteinander verbunden werden.This object is achieved according to the invention in a method of the type described at the outset in that an external and/or internal profiling is introduced into both ends, wherein, before the external and/or internal profiling is introduced, an optionally profiled internal mandrel is axially inserted into both ends and the two internal mandrels are connected to one another at the front in a force-fitting and/or form-fitting manner.
Das Verfahren ermöglicht es, mit nur einem Werkstückhalter den gesamten Umformprozess durchzuführen, so dass das gesamte Umformverfahren kontinuierlich ablaufen kann. Dabei entfallen auch zusätzliche Justierungen, die bei einem Werkstückhalterwechsel erforderlich wären. Außerdem ist es möglich, rohrförmige Vorformen mit einem runden (kreisringförmigen) oder polygonalen Querschnitt zu verwenden, so dass sich die so hergestellte Hohlwelle für verschiedene Anwendungszwecke eignet, z.B. für die Aufnahme von Wicklungspaketen bei einem Elektromotor. Während der jeweiligen Umformung wird die Vorform relativ zur wenigstens einen Umformrolle in Drehbewegung versetzt, wozu der Werkstückhalter mit der Vorform und/oder die wenigstens eine Umformrolle angetrieben wird. Bei der Umformung bleibt der z.B. polygonale Querschnitt im mittleren Rohrbereich, der vom Werkstückhalter gehalten ist, unverändert, während nur die Endbereiche rotationssymmetrisch umgeformt werden, so dass ohne weitere Umformung der mittlere Bereich z.B. Wicklungspakete eines Elektromotors aufnehmen kann. Da der mittlere Bereich nicht umgeformt wird, ist im mittleren Bereich auch kein Innendorn erforderlich, sondern es werden nur in die beiden Endbereiche Innendorne eingesetzt, während die Vorform im mittleren Bereich von außen von einem Werkstückhalter gehalten wird.The method makes it possible to carry out the entire forming process with just one workpiece holder, so that the entire forming process can run continuously. This also eliminates the need for additional adjustments that would be required when changing the workpiece holder. It is also possible to use tubular preforms with a round (circular) or polygonal cross-section, so that the hollow shaft produced in this way is suitable for various applications, e.g. for holding winding packages in an electric motor. During the respective forming, the preform is set in rotation relative to at least one forming roller, for which purpose the workpiece holder with the preform and/or the at least one forming roller is driven. During the forming, the e.g. polygonal cross-section in the middle tube area, which is held by the workpiece holder, remains unchanged, while only the end areas are formed rotationally symmetrically, so that the middle area can, for example, hold winding packages of an electric motor without further forming. Since the middle area is not formed, no inner mandrel is required in the middle area, but inner mandrels are only inserted into the two end areas, while the preform in the middle area is held from the outside by a workpiece holder.
Als Vorform können sowohl gezogene als auch geschweißte Rohre verwendet werden.Both drawn and welded tubes can be used as preforms.
In ganz besonders bevorzugter Ausgestaltung ist vorgesehen, dass die beiden Enden der Vorform wenigstens teilweise gleichzeitig umgeformt werden. Damit wird einerseits die Umformzeit verkürzt, andererseits führt dies zu einer Drehmomentneutralisierung im mittleren Rohrbereich.In a particularly preferred embodiment, it is provided that the two ends of the preform are formed at least partially simultaneously. This shortens the forming time on the one hand, and on the other hand leads to torque neutralization in the middle tube area.
Je nach Anforderungen an die fertige Hohlwelle ist bevorzugt vorgesehen, dass wenigstens ein Ende ein- oder mehrfach abgestuft wird, d.h. es werden axial aneinander angrenzende Bereiche mit unterschiedlichen Durchmessern erzeugt.Depending on the requirements of the finished hollow shaft, it is preferably provided that at least one end is stepped once or several times, i.e. axially adjacent areas with different diameters are created.
Da die fertige Hohlwelle an beiden Enden eine Außen- oder Innenprofilierung aufweisen soll, ist vorgesehen, dass in beide Enden jeweils ein Innendorn eingeführt wird. Zum Einbringen einer Außenprofilierung wird wenigstens eine entsprechend profilierte Umformrolle und ein nicht profilierter Innendorn und zum Einbringen einer Innenprofilierung wird wenigstens eine nicht profilierte Umformrolle und ein profilierter Innendorn verwendet.Since the finished hollow shaft is to have an external or internal profile at both ends, it is intended that an internal mandrel is inserted into each end. To introduce an external profile, at least one correspondingly profiled forming roller and one non-profiled internal mandrel are used, and to introduce an internal profile, at least one non-profiled forming roller and one profiled internal mandrel are used.
Dabei ist vorgesehen, dass die beiden Innendorne stirnseitig kraft- und/oder formschlüssig miteinander verbunden werden. Die stirnseitigen Enden der beiden Innendorne können z.B. eine Stirnverzahnung aufweisen und werden axial gegeneinander gedrückt und dadurch verriegelt, so dass entstehende seitliche Radialkräfte abgefangen werden können.The two inner mandrels are designed to be connected to one another in a force-fitting and/or form-fitting manner at the front. The front ends of the two inner mandrels can, for example, have a spur gear and are pressed axially against one another and thereby locked so that any lateral radial forces that arise can be absorbed.
Schließlich ist vorteilhaft vorgesehen, dass die Umformung wenigstens zeitweise unter Wärmebeaufschlagung erfolgt. Die Wärme kann beispielsweise induktiv erzeugt werden und durch diese Wärmeaufbringung kann gleichzeitig eine Härtung des Bauteiles erreicht werden.Finally, it is advantageous that the forming takes place at least temporarily with the application of heat. The heat can be generated inductively, for example, and this application of heat can simultaneously harden the component.
