Description

  TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a metal plate press forming method and a press die, and particularly press forming for preventing a spring back that occurs in the case of a high-strength steel plate or an aluminum alloy plate and ensuring good shape freezing property. The present invention relates to a method and a press die.

  In recent years, metal plates such as high-strength steel plates and aluminum alloy plates are often used for automobile parts, but shape freezing defects that occur when molding them into automobile parts have become a problem. That is, when a hat-shaped cross-sectional part is formed using a U-shaped bending mold, a shape freezing defect called a spring back occurs, and dimensional accuracy cannot be obtained. Yes. This shape freezing defect not only significantly deteriorates the appearance quality of the final product, but also causes welding failure in assembly operations performed after molding. Therefore, prevention of shape freezing failure is particularly important for structural parts such as members and frames. ing.

  Here, first, an outline of a press molding apparatus used for processing a hat-shaped molded part will be briefly described. As shown in FIG. 1, for example, the press molding apparatus includes a die 5 formed in a concave shape in cross section. The punch 5 is formed in a shape corresponding to the concave portion of the die 5 and is configured to be extendable into the concave portion. Further, the press forming apparatus is provided with a wrinkle presser 4 that applies a wrinkle pressing force by narrowing the steel plate at a position corresponding to the peripheral portion of the die 5 so as not to cause wrinkles in the product. . In such a configuration, a blank (unprocessed material) 6 of a metal plate, which is a workpiece, is placed on a die 5, and the punch 3 is formed to the bottom dead center A while applying a wrinkle holding force with the wrinkle presser 4. By extending, the metal plate is formed into a desired concave shape, and a hat-formed part as the final product S is obtained.

  As described above, the conventional press molding method uses the punch 3 and the wrinkle retainer 4 and the die 5 and press-molds so as to have the product size at the bottom dead center A (FIG. 1 (a) → (b)) After reaching the bottom dead center A (FIG. 1 (b)), the wrinkle retainer 4 and the punch 3 were simultaneously released (FIG. 1 (c)). For this reason, there has been a problem that the wall portion of the product that is subjected to bending-bending deformation undergoes wall warpage due to elastic recovery of the material.

  Springback, which is known as a shape defect frequently observed in bending, is a phenomenon that occurs because the residual stress generated in the mold plate during bending is elastically restored and deformed during unloading. This is because the residual stress is unevenly distributed in the thickness direction. In general, when bent from the mold, the shoulder of the punch is opened by the spring back of the metal plate when it is released from the mold. In order to solve this problem, Patent Document 1 discloses a press molding method and a molded product for simultaneously molding a concave step portion recessed in a direction opposite to the molding direction on a bending shoulder. This creates a reverse moment against the springback and balances them to prevent the opening of the angle near the punch shoulder.

  However, as shown in FIG. 2, the spring back in the hat-shaped molded part as the final product S is not only the change in the angle of the shoulder 1, but the wall A phenomenon called “wall warpage” in which the portion 2 is deformed from a flat surface to a curved surface having curvature is also manifested, and the method disclosed in Patent Document 1 cannot sufficiently prevent the warpage of the wall portion. In addition, the broken line in a figure has shown the shape of the metal plate in a shaping | molding bottom dead center.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 3, Patent Document 2 discloses that the warpage of the wall portion can be reduced by performing preliminary processing and main processing using two types of punches. This is because the punch bottom circumference of the product can be set larger than the circumference of the second punch bottom by using the ball head tool 7 for the first press molding (FIGS. (A) and (b)). Figures (c) and (d)) The amount of bending and bending deformation (bending moment) received in the second press molding can be reduced as compared with the conventional method. In addition, by using the ball head tool 7 for the first press molding, the slack of the punch bottom can be crushed by the second press molding, so that the opening angle of the punch shoulder can be reduced.

  Thereby, the opening of the punch shoulder and the warp of the wall near the punch shoulder can be reduced. However, in this method, the vertical wall 5 close to the wrinkle retainer 4 remains bent and bent back, so the vertical wall It is difficult to make the total warpage zero (FIGS. (E) to (g)).

  The present invention was made based on such circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a press molding method and a press die excellent in shape freezing property by preventing warpage of the entire wall portion of a press molded part. To do.

In order to solve the problem, the gist of the present invention is as follows.
(1) In the first press molding, it has a central portion and equal plan shape of the bottom of the die and the final product shape while loading the blank holding force, and, using a punch of smaller width than 7mm than the die width After press forming the metal plate so as to have a predetermined width and depth, in the second and subsequent press forming in the same direction, the same die as the first press forming is used, and 5 mm or more from the punch width A method for press-molding a hat-shaped molded part having excellent shape freezing property, characterized in that a wide punch is used and press-molding is performed at least once while a wrinkle holding force is applied.
(2) In the first press molding, dies and the final product shape bottom have a central portion and equal plan shape of, and predetermined width and depth using a punch of smaller width than 7mm than the die width After pressing the unconstrained metal plate so as to be, in the second and subsequent press forming in the same direction, use the same die as the first press forming, and a punch wider than the punch width by 5 mm or more A press-molding method for a hat-shaped molded part, which is excellent in shape freezing property, characterized in that it is press-molded at least once while applying a wrinkle pressing force.
(3) In the last press molding after the second time, press molding is performed while pressing the bottom of the punch of the workpiece with a punch and a die, and the shape freezing property according to (1) or (2) is excellent. , Press molding method for hat-shaped molded parts.
(4) A press mold for the press-molding method for a hat-shaped molded part according to any one of (1) to (3), wherein the punch is divided into an inner side and an outer side, and only the inner punch is under molding. After reaching the dead point, the inner punch does not rise, and the outer punch can move to the molding bottom dead center. .

ADVANTAGE OF THE INVENTION According to this invention, the curvature of the whole wall part of a press-molded part can be prevented, and the hat-shaped molded part with the favorable shape freezing property which is excellent in dimensional accuracy can be obtained.
In other words, in the present invention, in the first press molding, the entire wall portion of the product obtained by the first press molding is used by using a die and a punch having a plane having the same shape as a part of the bottom of the final product shape. In addition, since sufficient reverse bending deformation can be imparted by the second press molding, warpage of the entire wall portion can be made substantially zero.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
The present inventors have examined a press molding method and a press mold for preventing warpage of a wall portion of a hat-shaped molded part having a U-shaped cross-sectional shape, and the press molding method and the press mold described in detail below. It was found that the spring back of the metal plate can be prevented by adopting the mold.

  The inventors of the present invention design a press die so that a predetermined product size is obtained by two or more press moldings, and the punch width W is wider than the first punch width W1 in the second and subsequent press moldings. It was found that the spring back of the metal plate can be reduced. In addition, it has also been found that this effect is further improved by press molding while pressing the workpiece with a punch and a die at the bottom dead center A of the final press molding.

In the invention according to (1), in the first press molding, a predetermined width and depth are obtained by using a die having a plane that is equal in shape to a part of the bottom of the die and the final product shape while applying a wrinkle holding force. In the second and subsequent press molding, the metal plate is press molded at least once while applying a crease pressing force so as to be wider than the width. As a preferred embodiment thereof, for example, as shown in FIG. 4, a first punch 7 having the punch width W ₁ used in the first press (FIG. 4A) and a punch width W ₂ used in the second press. The second punch (for foam) 8 (FIG. 3C) is separately provided so that the second punch width W (= W ₂ ) is larger than the _first punch width W _1. Set. That is, the first punch 7 is a punch having a flat surface having the same shape as a part of the bottom of the final product shape. In this example, the bottom shape of the final product is a flat surface. A punch is used.

Then, after the first press forming is performed by using the first punch 7 while applying the wrinkle pressing force by the wrinkle presser 4 so as to have the width W ₁ and the depth D ₁ (FIG. 4A → ( b)) The final product S is obtained by the second press molding with the width W ₂ (> W ₁ ) and the depth D ₁ using the second punch while applying the wrinkle pressing force (see FIG. 4 ((c) → (f)) This can reduce the spring back of the metal plate, as shown in FIG. 4 (d), by reverse bending deformation to bend the metal plate inside the wall portion. This is because it can be applied to the wall of the product.

In the invention according to (2) above, in the first press molding, a predetermined width and depth are obtained by using a die 1 and a punch having a shape equal to a part of the bottom of the final product shape without applying a wrinkle holding force. Then, after the non-restrained metal plate is press-molded, it is press-molded at least once while applying a wrinkle pressing force so as to be wider than the width in the second and subsequent press molding. And As a preferred embodiment, for example, as shown in FIG. 5 , the first press molding is performed using the first punch 7 so as to have the width W ₁ and the depth D ₁ without applying a wrinkle holding force. After that (FIG. 5 (a) → (b)), the second punch 8 is used for the width W ₂ (> W ₁ ) and the depth D ₁ while the wrinkle pressing force is applied by the wrinkle presser 4. (Fig. 5 ((c)-> (f)) The spring back of the metal plate can be reduced by applying the wrinkle holding force in the first press molding. The product that is not pressed (in the unconstrained state) is only bent and deformed by the punch shoulder and the die shoulder, so that bending bending by the die shoulder R portion as shown in FIG. 4 (b) is applied. No distortion is applied to the product wall, This is because the stress and stress can be greatly reduced.

The invention according to (3) is characterized in that in the final press molding after the second time, press molding is performed while pressing the punch bottom of the workpiece with a punch and a die.
In the final press molding after the second time, if the press molding is performed without pressing the punch bottom of the workpiece, for example, as shown in FIG. 6 , sagging may occur on the punch bottom of the product. A reverse bending deformation cannot be sufficiently applied to the wall portion, and the wall warp cannot be sufficiently suppressed. Since the intended function of the present invention is to impart reverse bending to the wall, it is preferable to hold down the punch bottom of the workpiece in order to reliably prevent wall warpage.

In the invention according to (4), the punch is divided into an inner side and an outer side, and after only the inner punch reaches the molding bottom dead center, the inner punch does not rise, and the outer punch rises to the molding bottom dead center. It is possible to move up to. As the preferred embodiment, for example, as shown in FIG. 7, the inner cylinder of the first punch 10a of the punch width W ₁ used for the first press, punch width W that surrounds the periphery of the first punch 10a _{It is set as} the structure provided with the division | segmentation punch 10 which uses the 2nd ring-shaped 2nd punch 10b as an outer cylinder. The first punch 10a and the second punch 10b are configured so that each can be extended independently. Also in this case, as in the above-described example, the first punch 10a that is the inner punch has a plane that has the same shape as a part of the bottom of the final product shape.

Then, first, after the first press-molded into a width W1 and a depth _{D 1} by a first punch 10a (FIG. 7 (a) → (b) ), the first punch 10a is under molding The final product S is obtained by the second press molding with the width W ₂ (> W ₁ ) and the depth D ₁ using the second punch 10b in the state left at the dead point A (FIG. 7 ( c) → (f)). The wrinkle pressing force may be applied to both the first time and the second time as in the case described above, or may not be applied to the first time.

  In the press molding methods described in the above (1) to (3), the first and second press dies may be independent of each other, but when the die structure shown in FIG. There is an advantage that the molding can be performed continuously in one time. Moreover, since it can press-mold while pressing the punch bottom part of a workpiece after the first press-molding, in this case, the effect described in the above (3) can be expected, which is preferable.

  In the above description, the example in which the final product is obtained by the second press has been described. However, in the present invention, the number of presses is not limited to two, and the final product is obtained by performing a plurality of presses. In this case, the above effect can be expected.

  Next, examples performed for confirming the effects of the present invention will be described below.

Example 1
As an example of the present invention, a press test was performed using a steel plate having a plate thickness of 1.0 mm and a tensile strength of 590 MPa. The hat width was 100 mm, the length was 280 mm, the punch width was 80 mm, the punch shoulder was 5 mm, the die width was 82 mm, the die shoulder was 5 mm, and the molding height was 80 mm. In order to examine the effect of the present invention, the second press molding was designed to have a predetermined size and shape. A hat forming test was conducted with a first punch width of 75 mm, a punch shoulder R of 5 mm, a forming depth of 70 mm or 80 mm, and a second punch width of 80 mm, a punch shoulder R of 5 mm, and a forming height of 80 mm. The first and second crease pressing force was 100 kN. At this time, press molding was performed even under the condition that the first wrinkle pressing force was not applied (condition 3). Moreover, the test which shape | molds the same steel plate as an invention example with one press as a comparative example was done.

The molded product subjected to the bending test was measured for the shape of the central section of the hat type with a three-dimensional shape measuring device, and the curvature radius ρ (mm) and the opening width W _d (mm) of the wall portion were measured. From these measured values, an evaluation value of the wall warp 1 / ρ (1 / mm) and the opening width ΔW _d (mm) was obtained by the following equation.
ΔW _d = W _d -80

(Example 2)
As Example 2, a molding test was performed using the same steel type, test piece size, and press mold as in Example 1. In order to examine the effect of the present invention, the first and second press dies exist independently and separately (Condition 2), and a split punch as shown in FIG. 8 is adopted (Condition 3). A hat forming test was conducted to examine the influence of the mold shape. Also in this example, as a comparative example, a test was performed in which the same steel plate as that of the invention example was formed by a single press.

The measurement result of the said Examples 1-2 is shown to Tables 1-2. In the table, the effect on the warp of the wall was evaluated as positive for the outward warp and negative for the internal warp. As can be seen from these results, according to the present invention, it was confirmed that a hat-shaped molded part with improved shape freezing property with improved dimensional accuracy compared to the comparative example corresponding to the conventional method can be obtained. Further, by performing the second and subsequent press molding while pressing the punch bottom of the workpiece, it was possible to obtain a hat-shaped molded part with even better dimensional accuracy.
