【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明はカシメ組付品に係り、特に、カシメ加工部の突出寸法が小さく軽量で安価なカシメ組付品に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
(a) 所定の取付穴が設けられた組付対象物と、(b) 前記取付穴内に挿入される軸状部と、その軸状部の一端に設けられた取付穴よりも大きいフランジ部とを有し、その軸状部がその取付穴内を挿通させられるとともに外周側へカシメ加工されることにより、そのカシメ加工部と前記フランジ部との間で前記組付対象物を挟んだ状態でその組付対象物に一体的に組み付けられるカシメ部品と、を有するカシメ組付品が各種の分野で多用されている。特許文献1の段落37、図10、図11に記載のカシメ構造はその一例で、横パイプ13がカシメ部品に相当する。

特開2000−210738号公報(段落37、図10、図11)
【0004】
一方、図4はこのような従来のカシメ組付品の一例を示す断面図で、このカシメ組付品100は電池などに用いられる電気部品であり、何れも導電性の金属材料にて構成されている板状部材102およびカシメ部品104を備えているとともに、それ等の間には合成樹脂材料から成る絶縁体106が介装されて、それ等を絶縁している。カシメ部品104は、鍛造加工品でカシメ加工前は有底円筒形状を成しているとともに、底部にフランジ部として外向フランジ104aが一体に設けられており、一点鎖線で示す円筒部104bが軸状部として機能するようになっている。そして、板状部材102の取付穴102aには予め円環形状の絶縁体106が装着され、円筒部104bが一点鎖線で示すように絶縁体106の内部を挿通させられ、且つ実線で示すように先端開口部を外周側へ押し拡げるようにカシメ加工されることにより、外向フランジ104aとの間で板状部材102を挟んで一体的に組み付けられている。このようなカシメ組付品100は、カシメ加工部の突出寸法が小さくて軽量且つコンパクトに構成される。上記板状部材102は組付対象物に相当する。
【0005】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、このようなカシメ組付品100においては、カシメ部品104が鍛造加工で製造されているためコストが高くなるととともに、円筒部104bを外周側へカシメ加工する際に先端部(外周部)に割れが発生し易いという問題があった。
【0006】
本発明は以上の事情を背景として為されたもので、その目的とするところは、カシメ加工時に割れなどの不具合が発生し難い安価なカシメ構造を提供することにある。
【0007】
【課題を解決するための手段】
かかる目的を達成するために、第1発明は、(a) 所定の取付穴が設けられた組付対象物と、(b) 前記取付穴内に挿入される軸状部と、その軸状部の一端に設けられたその取付穴よりも大きいフランジ部とを有し、その軸状部がその取付穴内を挿通させられるとともに外周側へカシメ加工されることにより、そのカシメ加工部と前記フランジ部との間で前記組付対象物を挟んだ状態でその組付対象物に一体的に組み付けられるカシメ部品と、を有するカシメ組付品の製造方法であって、(c) 前記カシメ部品として、前記軸状部が有底円筒形状を成しているとともに、その有底円筒形状の開口部に前記フランジ部として外向フランジが一体に設けられた金属板材のプレス品を用意する工程と、(d) 前記カシメ部品の軸状部を、前記有底円筒形状の底部側から前記組付対象物の取付穴内に挿入する挿入工程と、(e) 前記軸状部の有底円筒形状の内部に変形を規制する充填材を充填した状態で、その軸状部を軸方向へ圧縮することにより、その充填材の作用でその軸状部を外周側へ膨出させるバルジ工程と、(f) 前記軸状部から前記充填材を除去するとともに、その軸状部を更に軸方向へ圧縮して前記カシメ加工部を形成するカシメ工程と、を有することを特徴とする。
【0008】
第2発明は、第1発明のカシメ組付品の製造方法において、前記バルジ工程に先立って、前記軸状部の外周形状に対応する円弧形状の凹所が先端に設けられた複数の割型を、前記組付対象物の近傍であって前記フランジ部と反対側に配設し、前記バルジ工程で前記軸状部の膨出範囲がその組付対象物に達することをその割型によって阻止することを特徴とする。
【0009】
第3発明は、(a) 所定の取付穴が設けられた組付対象物と、(b) 前記取付穴内に挿入される軸状部と、その軸状部の一端に設けられたその取付穴よりも大きいフランジ部とを有し、その軸状部がその取付穴内を挿通させられるとともに外周側へカシメ加工されることにより、そのカシメ加工部と前記フランジ部との間で前記組付対象物を挟んだ状態で該組付対象物に一体的に組み付けられるカシメ部品と、を有するカシメ組付品であって、(c) 前記カシメ部品は、前記軸状部が有底円筒形状を成しているとともに、その有底円筒形状の開口部に前記フランジ部として外向フランジが一体に設けられた金属板材のプレス品で、(d) 前記軸状部の有底円筒形状の底部側から前記組付対象物の取付穴内に挿入された状態で、その軸状部が軸方向へ圧縮されることにより外周側へ膨出させられて前記カシメ加工部が形成されていることを特徴とする。
【0010】
第4発明は、第3発明のカシメ組付品において、前記カシメ組付品は電気部品で、前記組付対象物および前記カシメ部品は何れも導電性の金属材料にて構成されており、その組付対象物とカシメ部品との間には絶縁体が介装されていることを特徴とする。
【0011】
第5発明は、(a) 所定の組付対象物の取付穴内に挿入される軸状部と、(b) その軸状部の一端に設けられたその取付穴よりも大きいフランジ部と、を有し、(c) その軸状部がその取付穴内を挿通させられるとともに外周側へカシメ加工されることにより、そのカシメ加工部と前記フランジ部との間で前記組付対象物を挟んだ状態でその組付対象物に一体的に組み付けられるカシメ部品であって、(d) 前記軸状部が有底円筒形状を成しているとともに、その有底円筒形状の開口部に前記フランジ部として外向フランジが一体に設けられた金属板材のプレス品であることを特徴とする。
【0012】
第6発明は、第5発明のカシメ部品において、前記有底円筒形状の底部は外側へ凸となる半球形状を成していることを特徴とする。
【0013】
【発明の効果】
第1発明のカシメ組付品の製造方法においては、軸状部が有底円筒形状を成しているとともに、その有底円筒形状の開口部にフランジ部として外向フランジが設けられた金属板材のプレス品がカシメ部品として用いられ、先ず挿入工程でその有底円筒形状の底部側から組付対象物の取付穴内に挿入し、その後、バルジ工程で有底円筒形状の内部に充填材を充填した状態で軸方向へ圧縮することにより、その充填材の作用で軸状部を外周側へ膨出させるとともに、カシメ工程で更に軸状部を軸方向へ圧縮してカシメ加工するため、軸状部のカシメ加工時における割れの発生が抑制され、良好なカシメ加工部が得られるようになる。また、カシメ部品として、有底円筒形状のプレス品が用いられているため、鍛造品に比べて軽量且つ安価に構成される。
【0014】
第2発明では、上記バルジ工程に先立って、軸状部の外周形状に対応する円弧形状の凹所が先端に設けられた複数の割型が、組付対象物の近傍であってフランジ部と反対側に配設され、軸状部の膨出範囲がその組付対象物に達することが阻止されるようになっているため、バルジ工程で軸状部の膨出に伴って組付対象物が変形する恐れがなく、常に良好なカシメ加工が行われる。
【0015】
第3発明では、軸状部が有底円筒形状を成しているとともに、その有底円筒形状の開口部にフランジ部として外向フランジが設けられた金属板材のプレス品がカシメ部品として用いられ、有底円筒形状の底部側から組付対象物の取付穴内に挿入された状態で、その軸状部が軸方向へ圧縮されることにより外周側へ膨出させられてカシメ加工が行われるため、カシメ加工時における割れの発生が抑制され、良好なカシメ加工部が得られるようになる。また、カシメ部品として、有底円筒形状のプレス品が用いられているため、鍛造品に比べて軽量且つ安価に構成される。
【0016】
第4発明は電気部品に関するもので、組付対象物およびカシメ部品がそれぞれ導電性の金属材料にて構成されているが、カシメ部品のカシメ加工部に割れが発生しないため、所望の電気性能が得られる。
【0017】
第5発明のカシメ部品は、軸状部が有底円筒形状を成しているとともに、その有底円筒形状の開口部にフランジ部として外向フランジが設けられた金属板材のプレス品にて構成されているため、鍛造品に比べて軽量且つ安価に構成される。また、例えば第1発明のように、有底円筒形状の底部側から組付対象物の取付穴内に挿入し、有底円筒形状の内部に充填材を充填した状態で軸方向へ圧縮することにより、その充填材の作用で軸状部を外周側へ膨出させるとともに、更に軸状部を軸方向へ圧縮してカシメ加工することにより、カシメ加工時における割れの発生が抑制され、良好なカシメ加工部が得られるようになる
【0018】
第6発明では、上記有底円筒形状の底部が外側へ凸となる半球形状を成しているため、円筒部と底部との間に折れ曲がり部(稜線部)が無く、軸方向へ圧縮することによって得られるカシメ加工部が比較的滑らかな面形状となる。
【0019】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明のカシメ組付品は、例えば第4発明のように電気部品に好適に適用されるが、電気部品以外の組付品にも適用され得る。組付対象物およびカシメ部品は、必ずしも導電性を有する必要はなく、組付対象物については金属材料以外の材料製とすることもできる。
【0020】
組付対象物は、少なくとも取付穴が設けられてカシメ部品が組み付けられる略平板状の組付部を備えておれば良く、組付部以外の部分を一体的に備えていても良い。取付穴は、一般には軸状部の外周形状に対応する円穴が望ましいが、角穴などでも良い。カシメ部品は、有底円筒形状の軸状部と外向フランジとを一体に有する金属板材のプレス品であるが、軸状部および外向フランジ以外の部分を一体に備えていても良いし、別体に製造された部材が溶接などで一体的に固設されていても良いなど、種々の態様が可能である。軸状部の有底円筒形状の円筒は真円であることが望ましいが、楕円形状を採用することもできる。
【0021】
有底円筒形状の軸状部と外向フランジとを一体に有するカシメ部品は、例えば平坦な金属板材に対してプレスによる絞り加工、或いは張出加工を施すことによって製造されるが、少なくとも有底円筒形状の軸状部がプレス加工によって成形されたものであれば良い。有底円筒形状の底部は、例えば第6発明のように半球形状にすることが望ましいが、円筒部に対して略直角な平坦面などでも良い。
【0022】
バルジ工程で、有底円筒形状の内部に充填する充填材は、水や油などの非圧縮性流体、容積変化を見越して充填された空気などの気体、ウレタン樹脂等の弾性変形可能な合成樹脂材料など、比較的容積変化が少ない弾性部材、或いは全体として任意の形状に変化する粒状物などで、有底円筒形状の軸状部が軸方向へ圧縮される際に、内側へ変形して内部の容積が減少することを阻止して外周側へ膨出変形させるものであれば良い。
【0023】
カシメ工程は、例えば軸状部を略扁平に押し潰して組付対象物と平行な平坦面にするように構成されるが、フランジ部との間で組付対象物を挟むことができれば、中央部分が凸形状に突き出していたり、逆に凹形状に凹んでいたりしても良いなど、種々の態様が可能である。
【0024】
カシメ工程では、バルジ工程で使用した充填材を除去して軸状部を圧縮するが、例えば充填材として油や水等の流体を用いる場合、バルジ工程で使用する金型などに流体通路を設け、バルブを開いて流体を排出しながらバルジ工程に連続して共通の金型を用いてカシメ工程を行うこともできる。
【0025】
第2発明は、例えば取付穴と略同じ曲率の半円弧形状の凹所を有する一対の割型を有して構成されるが、3分割以上に分割して構成することもできる。これらの割型は、例えばカシメ部品の軸状部に対して略直角な方向へ移動可能に配設され、バルジ工程では先端の凹所が軸状部を略取り巻くように接近させられる。なお、組付対象物の強度が比較的高く、その組付対象物によって軸状部の膨出範囲が規定される場合には上記割型は必ずしも必要無いなど、第1発明では割型無しで実施することも可能である。
【0026】
第3発明のカシメ組付品は、第1発明の製造方法に従って好適に製造されるが、充填材無しで圧縮するなど他の製造方法を採用することもできる。
【0027】
【実施例】
以下、本発明の実施例を図面を参照しつつ詳細に説明する。
図1は、本発明の一実施例であるカシメ組付品10の断面図で、前記図4に対応する図である。このカシメ組付品10は電池などに用いられる電気部品であり、何れも導電性の金属材料にて構成されている板状部材12およびカシメ部品14を備えているとともに、それ等の間には合成樹脂材料から成る絶縁体16が介装されて、それ等を絶縁している。カシメ部品14は、平坦な金属板材に対してプレスによる絞り加工が施されることによって製造されたプレス品で、カシメ加工前は図2に示すように絞り加工によって形成された有底円筒形状の軸状部18と、その有底円筒形状の開口部から一体に外周側へ延び出している外向フランジから成るフランジ部20とを備えている。図2の(a) は平面図で(b) は正面図であり、軸状部18の横断面は略真円であるとともに、先端すなわち底部22は外側へ凸となる半球形状を成している。また、フランジ部20の外周形状は、絞り加工後のトリミングにより一対の平行部を有する円形状とされている。なお、図1の一点鎖線は、軸状部18をカシメ加工する前の状態である。
【0028】
板状部材12は組付対象物で、上記カシメ加工前におけるカシメ部品14の軸状部18よりも大きい円形の取付穴24が設けられており、軸状部18が有底円筒形状の底部22側からその取付穴24内に挿入されるとともに、その状態で軸方向へ圧縮されることにより、外周側へ膨出させられ且つ図1に実線で示すように扁平に押し潰されている。これにより、その扁平部26と前記フランジ部20との間で板状部材12が挟み込まれ、カシメ部品14がその板状部材12に離脱不能に一体的に組み付けられる。扁平部26はカシメ加工部に相当し、カシメ部品14は割れや亀裂を生じることなく軸状部18を略扁平に押し潰すことができる程度の成形性を備えている。
【0029】
前記絶縁体16は、カシメ加工する前の有底円筒形状の軸状部18よりも大径で且つ前記取付穴24と略同じ径寸法の円筒部28、およびその円筒部28の一端に外向きに設けられたフランジ部30を一体に備えており、円筒部28が前記取付穴24内に挿入された状態で、その円筒部28内に挿入された軸状部18がカシメ加工されることにより、円筒部28が外周側へ折り曲げられ、カシメ部品14と共に板状部材12に一体的に組み付けられる。絶縁体16は、割れや亀裂を生じることなく円筒部28を外側へ略直角に折り曲げることができる程度の弾性を備えている。
【0030】
次に、このようなカシメ組付品10の製造方法を、図3を参照して具体的に説明する。図3の(a) は、カシメ加工を行う前のカシメ部品14を用意する工程で、平坦な金属板材に対してプレスによる絞り加工を施し、有底円筒形状の軸状部18を成形するとともに、トリミング加工を行ってフランジ部20を所定形状とする。図3の(b) は絶縁体組合せ工程で、カシメ部品14を上向き、すなわち有底円筒形状の軸状部18の開口が上向きとなる略垂直な姿勢で配置するとともに、そのカシメ部品14の軸状部18の外周側に前記絶縁体16の円筒部28をフランジ部30側から嵌合し、フランジ部20、30が互いに密着するように組み合わせる。図3の(c) は挿入工程で、絶縁体16が組み合わされたカシメ部品14を軸状部18の底部22側から板状部材12の取付穴24内に相対的に挿入し、絶縁体16の円筒部28を取付穴24の内側に嵌合して板状部材12とフランジ部30とを密着させる。なお、絶縁体16の円筒部28を板状部材12の取付穴24内に嵌合した後に、その絶縁体16の円筒部28内にカシメ部品14の軸状部18を挿入するようにしても良い。
【0031】
図3の(d) はバルジ準備工程で、一対の割型32、34を板状部材12の近傍であってフランジ部20、30と反対側、すなわち板状部材12の下面に接するように配設するとともに、有底円筒形状の開口が上向きとなる姿勢で配置された軸状部18の内部に充填材として油36を充填する。割型32、34は、軸状部18を挟んで対称位置に、その軸状部18に対して略垂直に接近離間可能に配設されているとともに、それぞれ取付穴24と略同じ曲率の半円弧形状の凹所38、40を先端に備えており、軸状部18に接近させられることによりその凹所38、40が軸状部18の略全周を取り巻き、前記絶縁体16の円筒部28の外周面に略接触させられる。
【0032】
図3の(e) はバルジ工程で、上下方向に接近離間可能に配設された一対の上型42および下型44が互いに接近させられることにより、軸状部18を軸方向に圧縮する。上型42には、軸状部18の上端の開口内に挿入される凸部46が一体に設けられ、その軸状部18内に充填された油36が自由に漏れ出すことを抑制することにより、軸状部18が軸方向へ圧縮される際に内部の油36の圧力が上昇し、この圧力上昇により軸状部18が外周側へ膨出させられる。軸状部18の膨出に伴って絶縁体16の円筒部28も外周側へ押し拡げられるが、板状部材12の下側には割型32、34が配設されているため、その軸状部18および円筒部28の膨出範囲が割型32、34によって制限され、板状部材12に達して取付穴24などを変形させる恐れはない。また、上記上型42の凸部46の周囲にはフランジ部20を位置決めする環状溝48が設けられているとともに、下型44のうち軸状部18の底部22に当接する部分には、その底部22よりも曲率が小さい球面状の押圧面50が設けられ、その底部22を位置決めするようになっており、これにより軸状部18は略垂直な姿勢に保持されつつ軸方向へ圧縮され、軸心まわりに略均等に外周側へ膨出させられる。
【0033】
図3の(f) はカシメ工程で、前記軸状部18内の油36を排出するとともに、割型32、34をそれぞれ軸状部18から離間させた後、前記下型44の代わりに平坦な押圧面52を有する下型54を用いて上型42との間で更に軸状部18を軸方向に圧縮する。これにより、その軸状部18が扁平に押し潰されて板状部材12と平行な平坦面となり、フランジ部20との間で板状部材12を挟み込む前記扁平部26が形成されて、前記カシメ組付品10が得られる。
【0034】
このようなカシメ組付品10の製造方法においては、カシメ部品14として、軸状部18が有底円筒形状を成しているとともに、その有底円筒形状の開口部に設けられた外向フランジがフランジ部20として機能する金属板材のプレス品が用いられ、図3(e) のバルジ工程では、軸状部18の有底円筒形状の内部に油36を充填した状態で軸方向へ圧縮することにより、その油36の作用で軸状部18を外周側へ膨出させ、その後図3(f) のカシメ工程で軸状部18を更に軸方向へ圧縮して扁平部26を形成するため、図4のように円筒部104bを外周側へ押し拡げる場合に比較して割れが発生し難く、割れの無い良好な扁平部26が得られる。また、カシメ部品14として、有底円筒形状のプレス品が用いられているため、鍛造品に比べて軽量且つ安価に構成される。
【0035】
また、本実施例では、上記バルジ工程に先立って図3(d) のバルジ準備工程が設けられ、軸状部18の外周形状に対応する円弧形状の凹所38、40が先端に設けられた一対の割型32、34が、板状部材12の下面に接するように配設され、バルジ工程での軸状部18の膨出範囲が板状部材12に達することを阻止するようになっているため、軸状部18の膨出に伴って板状部材12の取付穴24などが変形する恐れがなく、常に良好なカシメ加工が行われる。
【0036】
また、本実施例のカシメ組付品10は電気部品で、板状部材12およびカシメ部品14は何れも導電性の金属材料にて構成されているが、カシメ部品14の扁平部26に割れが発生しないため、所望の電気性能が得られる。
【0037】
また、本実施例のカシメ部品14は、有底円筒形状の軸状部18の底部22が外側へ凸となる半球形状を成しているため、軸状部18の円筒部と底部22との境界に折れ曲がり部(稜線部)が無く、軸方向へ圧縮することによって得られる扁平部26が滑らかな平坦面形状となる。
【0038】
以上、本発明の実施例を図面に基づいて詳細に説明したが、これ等はあくまでも一実施形態であり、本発明は当業者の知識に基づいて種々の変更,改良を加えた態様で実施することができる。

In the method for manufacturing a crimped assembly according to the first invention, the shaft-shaped portion has a cylindrical shape with a bottom, and an outward flange is provided as a flange portion at an opening of the cylindrical shape with a bottom. The pressed product was used as a crimping part, and was first inserted into the mounting hole of the assembly target from the bottom side of the bottomed cylindrical shape in the insertion step, and then the filler was filled into the bottomed cylindrical shape in the bulge step By compressing in the axial direction in the state, the axial portion is bulged to the outer peripheral side by the action of the filler, and the axial portion is further compressed in the axial direction in the caulking process to perform crimping. The generation of cracks during the crimping process is suppressed, and a good crimped portion can be obtained. Further, since a pressed product having a cylindrical shape with a bottom is used as a caulking component, it is lighter and cheaper than a forged product.

[0019]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
The swaged assembly of the present invention is suitably applied to electric components as in the fourth invention, for example, but can also be applied to assembled products other than electrical components. The object to be assembled and the swaged part do not necessarily have to have conductivity, and the object to be assembled may be made of a material other than a metal material.
[0020]
It is sufficient that the assembly target has at least a substantially plate-shaped assembly portion to which a mounting hole is provided and a caulking component is assembled, and may be integrally provided with portions other than the assembly portion. Generally, the mounting hole is desirably a circular hole corresponding to the outer peripheral shape of the shaft portion, but may be a square hole or the like. The swaged part is a pressed product of a metal plate material having a bottomed cylindrical shaft portion and an outward flange integrally, but may be integrally provided with a portion other than the shaft portion and the outward flange, or may be provided separately. Various modes are possible, for example, the member manufactured in the above may be integrally fixed by welding or the like. It is desirable that the bottomed cylindrical cylinder of the shaft portion is a perfect circle, but an elliptical shape can also be adopted.
[0021]
A caulked part integrally having a bottomed cylindrical shaft portion and an outward flange is manufactured, for example, by subjecting a flat metal plate to drawing or overhanging with a press. Any shape may be used as long as the shaft portion is formed by press working. The bottom of the bottomed cylindrical shape is desirably a hemispherical shape as in the sixth invention, for example, but may be a flat surface substantially perpendicular to the cylindrical portion.
[0022]
In the bulge process, the filling material inside the bottomed cylindrical shape is an incompressible fluid such as water or oil, a gas such as air filled in anticipation of volume change, an elastically deformable synthetic resin such as urethane resin An elastic member with a relatively small change in volume, such as a material, or a granular material that changes to an arbitrary shape as a whole, deforms inward when the bottomed cylindrical shaft is compressed in the axial direction. Any material may be used as long as it prevents the volume from decreasing and swells and deforms to the outer peripheral side.
[0023]
The caulking step is configured, for example, to crush the shaft-like portion substantially flat to form a flat surface parallel to the assembly target, but if the assembly target can be sandwiched between the flange portion, the center is formed. Various modes are possible, for example, the portion may protrude in a convex shape or conversely may be concave in a concave shape.
[0024]
In the caulking process, the filler used in the bulge process is removed to compress the shaft.For example, when a fluid such as oil or water is used as the filler, a fluid passage is provided in a mold used in the bulge process. Alternatively, the caulking process can be performed using a common mold continuously to the bulge process while opening the valve and discharging the fluid.
[0025]
The second invention has, for example, a pair of split molds having a semicircular concave portion having substantially the same curvature as the mounting hole, but may be configured to be divided into three or more. These split dies are disposed, for example, so as to be movable in a direction substantially perpendicular to the shaft portion of the caulking part, and in the bulge process, the recess at the tip is approached so as to substantially surround the shaft portion. In the case of the first invention, there is no need for the split mold if the strength of the assembly target is relatively high and the swelling range of the shaft portion is defined by the assembly target. It is also possible to carry out.
[0026]
The caulking assembly of the third invention is suitably manufactured according to the manufacturing method of the first invention, but other manufacturing methods such as compression without a filler can also be adopted.
