Description
- This application claims priority from Japanese Patent Application No. 2012-156393, filed on Jul. 12, 2012, the entire contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference.
- The invention relates to a piercing method using a hot-press which presses a heated structure and then cools the latter to perform quenching, a method of fabricating a structure having a hole, and the structure having the hole.
- A method for production of a structure using a hot-press has been known. In the hot-press, the structure is first heated to about 1000° C., and the heated structure is subjected to a press process. After that, the structure is cooled and quenched to transform a steel plate structure from an austenite structure obtained at heating to a martensite structure, so that the structure subjected to the press working is formed to have high hardness.
- Hitherto, Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication 2005-248253 (Patent Document 1) discloses a technology of extending a lifespan of a tool for performing boring or trimming when the structure, such as a vehicular body component, is fabricated using the hot-press. In the technology disclosed in
Patent Document 1, when the heated structure is form-shaped by a mold, the structure is worked simultaneously by the tool. According to the technology, since the working of the structure using the tool is performed before the structure is formed to have the high hardness through the quenching by cooling, the burden on the tool can be reduced, thereby extending the lifespan of the tool. - However, even by using the technology disclosed in
Patent Document 1, it is not easy to form a hole in the structure. -
FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating a piercing method using the hot-press according to the related art and its problem, in whichFIG. 5( a) shows a piercing process, andFIG. 5( b) shows the problem thereof. - As illustrated in
FIG. 5( a), when the press forming is carried out by putting a heated structure W101 on alower die 202 and moving anupper die 201 to a bottom dead center, the structure W101 is subjected to the piercing working by apiercing edge 301 which is formed integrally with theupper die 201. After the structure W101 is formed with a hole H401 by thepiercing edge 301, theupper die 201 is necessarily held at the bottom dead center to prevent the structure W101 from being deformed due to contraction caused by degradation in temperature. - However, in the state in which the
upper die 201 is held at the bottom dead center, that is, thepiercing edge 301 is inserted in the hole H401, if the structure W101 is subjected to the quenching by cooling, the structure W101 is contracted, so that a diameter of the hole H401 is decreased. As illustrated inFIG. 5( b), thepiercing edge 301 is restrained by the contracted hole H401. For this reason, it is difficult to separate thepiercing edge 301 restrained by the hole H401 with contracted diameter from the structure W101. - The present invention has been made to solve the above problem, and an object of the present invention is to provide a piercing method of easily carrying out piercing working using a hot-press, a method of fabricating a structure having a hole, and the structure having a hole.
- (1): A piercing method using a hot-press includes: a piercing process (for example, the cutting process S4 which will be described later) of piercing a structure (for example, the workpiece W which will be described later) with a cutting edge (for example, the
piercing edge 24 a which will be described later); a concave/convex forming process (for example, the concave portion forming process S5 which will be described later) of forming a concave/convex portion (for example, the concave portions C which will be described later) around a hole (for example, the hole H which will be described later) formed in the structure by the piercing process to enlarge a diameter of the hole; and a cooling process (for example, the cooling process S6 which will be described later) of cooling the structure. - According to the aspect (1), since the diameter of the hole is enlarged by the slightly small amount by forming the concave/convex portion around the hole, the hole is not contracted smaller than a diameter of the cutting edge, even though the structure cooled in the cooling process is contracted. Accordingly, even though the cooling process is performed in the state in which the cutting edge is inserted in the hole after the piercing working is carried out, the cutting edge is not restrained in the hole, so that the cutting edge can be easily separated from the structure having high hardness. Accordingly, the piercing working can be easily carried out in the hot-press.
- (2): The piercing method according to the aspect (1), wherein an enlarged diameter amount of the hole by the concave/convex portion which is formed by the concave/convex forming process is larger than a contraction diameter amount of the hole by the cooling process.
- According to the aspect (2), since the enlarged diameter amount of the hole by the concave/convex portion is larger than the contracted diameter amount by the cooling process, the enlarged diameter of the hole can be maintained even though the structure cooled by the cooling process is contracted.
- (3): The piercing method according to the aspect (1) or the aspect (2), wherein the enlarged diameter amount of the hole by the concave/convex portion which is formed by the concave/convex forming process is large as a direction of a radially contracted diameter amount of the hole by the cooling process is large.
- According to the aspect (3), the enlarged diameter amount of the hole by the concave/convex portion is large as the direction of the radially contracted diameter amount by the cooling process is large. Therefore, in the case where the radially contracted diameter amount by the cooling process is different, the shape of the hole is not significantly deformed from the shape obtained by the piercing process.
- (4): A method of fabricating a structure (for example, the workpiece W which will be described later) having a hole (for example, the hole H which will be described later) using a hot-press, includes: a heating process (for example, the heating process S1 which will be described later) of heating the structure; a piercing process (for example, the cutting process S4 which will be described later) of piercing the structure with a cutting edge (for example, the
piercing edge 24 a which will be described later); a concave/convex forming process (for example, the concave portion forming process S5 which will be described later) of forming a concave/convex portion (for example, the concave portions C which will be described later) around a hole (for example, the hole H which will be described later) formed in the structure by the piercing process to enlarge a diameter of the hole; and a cooling process (for example, the cooling process S6 which will be described later) of cooling the structure while the cutting edge is inserted in the hole, wherein an enlarged diameter amount of the hole by the concave/convex portion which is formed by the concave/convex forming process is larger than a contraction diameter amount of the hole by the cooling process. - According to the aspect (4), since the concave/convex portion having the enlarged diameter amount of the hole larger than the contracted diameter amount by the cooling process is formed around the hole, the diameter of the hole is enlarged by the slight small amount. Therefore, the hole can be maintained in the enlarged diameter, even though the structure cooled in the cooling process is contracted. Accordingly, even though the cooling process is performed in the state in which the cutting edge is inserted in the hole after the piercing working is carried out, the cutting edge is not restrained in the hole having the diameter of the enlarged diameter, so that the cutting edge can be easily separated from the structure having high hardness. Accordingly, the piercing working can be easily carried out in the hot-press.
- (5): A structure (for example, the workpiece W which will be described later) having a hole (for example, the hole H which will be described later) which is fabricated by a hot-press, includes: a hole formed by a piercing process using a cutting edge (for example, the

mold 1 for use in a hot-press forming method will be described.FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating each process of the hot-press forming method according to the embodiment of the present invention, in whichFIG. 1( a) shows a placing process,FIG. 1( b) shows a form shaping process,FIG. 1( c) shows a cutting process, andFIG. 1( d) shows a concave portion forming process. - A workpiece W formed by the hot-press forming method is a structure, such as a vehicular body component, made of a high-tensile steel plate. If the workpiece is subjected to press forming by the hot-press forming method, it is fabricated as a structure having high hardness.
- The
mold 1 for use in the hot-press forming method includes, as illustrated inFIG. 1 , anupper die 2 and alower die 3. Theupper die 2 is a movable type which is moved down when the press is carried out, while thelower die 3 is s stationary type. - The
upper die 2 includes apad 21 having an upper formingsurface 21 a for performing form shaping of substantially truncated cone shape on the workpiece W in cooperation with a lower formingsurface 3 a of thelower die 3 which will be described later. Thepad 21 is attached to theupper die 2, with anelastic body 22 being interposed therebetween. Theelastic body 22 is contracted after a form shaping process which will be described later, so that thepad 21 approaches theupper die 2. - The
upper die 2 has anupper trimming portion 23 in a surrounding region of thepad 21 which performs the form shaping. Thepad 21 is provided with apiercing portion 24 and ascore punching portion 25 at a substantially center portion thereof. - The
upper trimming portion 23 is disposed in the surrounding region of thepad 21, and is integrally attached to theupper die 2. Theupper trimming portion 23 has anupper trimming edge 23 a for performing a cutting process on an end portion of the workpiece W. - The
upper trimming edge 23 a cuts the end portion of the workpiece W in cooperation with thelower trimming edge 31 a. - The
piercing portion 24 is disposed at the center of ahole 21 b provided in the substantially center portion of the pad 21 m, and is integrally attached to theupper die 2. Thepiercing portion 24 has apiercing edge 24 a for performing the piercing working on the workpiece W to have the hole H (seeFIG. 3 ) of a true circular shape having a diameter of A. Thepiercing edge 24 a has a circular shape in cross section, and forms the hole H in the workpiece W when the piercing edge is accommodated in anaperture 33 of thelower die 3 which will be described later. - The
score punching portion 25 is disposed in a substantially annular type around thepiercing portion 24 with respect to thehole 21 b provided in the substantially center portion of thepad 21. Thescore punching portion 25 has ascore punch 25 a for forming concave portions C, which will be described later, on the workpiece W. The score punch 25 a may be a semi-spherical convex portion by placing a dent around the hole H of the workpiece W. - The
upper trimming portion 23 and the piercingportion 24 are configured so that theupper trimming edge 23 a and the piercingedge 24 a cut the workpiece W, before the score punch 25 a forms the concave portions C on the workpiece W. Theupper trimming portion 23 and the piercingportion 24 may be configured so that the cutting by theupper trimming edge 23 a and the cutting by the piercingedge 24 a are performed at a substantially same timing. That is, theupper trimming portion 23 protrudes downward rather than the piercingportion 24, but may be disposed at a position in which the cutting of the workpiece W by theupper trimming edge 23 a is performed at the substantially same timing as the cutting of the workpiece W by the piercingedge 24 a. - The piercing
portion 24 protrudes downward rather than thescore punching portion 25 to perform the cutting of the workpiece W by the piercingedge 24 a, before the concave portions C are formed on the workpiece W by the score punch 25 a. - The
core punching portion 25 is disposed to form the concave portions C around the hole H of the workpiece W at a timing when theupper die 2 reaches the bottom dead center, after the workpiece W is cut by the piercingedge 24 a to form the hole H. - The
lower die 3 has the lower formingsurface 3 a fixed to a bottom surface to performing the form shaping on the workpiece W in cooperation with the upper formingsurface 21 a of thepad 21. - The
lower die 3 has alower trimming portion 31 below thepad 21, atray 32 below theupper trimming portion 23, theaperture 33 below the piercingportion 24, andconcave portions 34 below thescore punching portion 25. - The
lower trimming portion 31 is disposed inside themold 1 rather than theupper trimming portion 23, and is integrally attached to thelower die 3. Thelower trimming portion 31 has alower trimming edge 31 a for cutting the end portion of the workpiece W in cooperation with theupper trimming edge 23 a, with the workpiece W being interposed between the lower and upper trimming edges. - The
tray 32 receives a cut piece E fallen from the workpiece W which is interposed between the upper and lower trimming edges 23 a and 31 a and is cut by them. - A hole piece D fallen from the workpiece W which is pierced by the piercing
edge 24 a passes through theaperture 33. - The
concave portion 34 may be a semi-spherical dent, and may be formed around theaperture 33 of the lower formingsurface 3 a of thelower die 3 by pressing a front end of the score punch 25 a when the score punch 25 a forms the concave portions C. - Since the
upper die 2 is provided with the score punch 25 a, the lower formingsurface 3 a of thelower die 3 is provided with theconcave portions 34, and a protrusion is not provided on the lower formingsurface 3 a, the workpiece W placed on theconcave portions 34 is held, without being floated on the lower formingsurface 3 a of thelower die 3. For this reason, in the form shaping process S3 or the cutting process S4, the product precision of the workpiece W is not deteriorated, since misalignment does not occur due to the floating of the workpiece W. - Next, the hot-press forming method according to the embodiment will be described.
FIG. 2 is a flowchart of the hot-press forming method according to the embodiment. - In the hot-press forming method, first, the workpiece W is heated to about 1000° C.
- As illustrated in
FIG. 1( a), the heated workpiece W is placed at a predetermined position on the lower formingsurface 3 a of thelower die 3 in a mold opening state in which theupper die 2 is moved up to a top dead center. - As the
upper die 2 is moved down from the top dead center, and as illustrated in (b) ofFIG. 1 , thepad 21 of theupper die 2 abuts against the workpiece W placed on thelower die 3, and then the workpiece W is pressed by thepad 21 and thelower die 3, thereby performing the form shaping on the workpiece W with the upper formingsurface 21 a and the lower formingsurface 3 a. - When the
upper die 2 is further moved down, as illustrated inFIG. 1( c), in the state in which the abutment of thepad 21 against the workpiece W is maintained, theelastic body 22 is contracted, and then theupper trimming edge 23 a of theupper trimming portion 23 of theupper die 2 comes into contact with the workpiece W, thereby performing the cutting process to cut the end portion of the workpiece W between the upper and lower trimming edges 23 a and 31 a. At nearly the same time, the piercingedge 24 a of the piercingportion 24 of theupper die 2 abuts against the workpiece W, and the piercing working is performed to form the hole having the diameter of A in the workpiece W by the piercingedge 24 a. - When the
upper die 2 is further moved to the bottom dead center, as illustrated in (d) ofFIG. 1 , the score punch 25 a of thescore punching portion 25 of theupper die 2 abuts against the workpiece W, and then a portion of the workpiece W is pressed against theconcave portions 34 of thelower die 3 by the score punch 25 a to form the concave portions C. - The workpiece W formed with the concave portions C will now be described.
FIG. 3 is an enlarged view around the hole H of the workpiece W formed with the concave portions C according to the embodiment, in whichFIG. 3( a) is a perspective view, andFIG. 3( b) is a cross-sectional view. As illustrated inFIG. 3 , the concave portions C are placed around the hole H of the workpiece W which is cut by the piercingedge 24 a. - The concave portions C enlarge the hole H to have a diameter of B, which is indicated by a solid line, by a slightly small amount by pulling a thickness around the hole H having the diameter of A, which is indicated by a broken line, of the workpiece W to the concave portions C at an outer diameter side of the hole H, and the enlarged diameter amount of the hole H by the concave portions C is set to be larger than a refracted diameter amount by the cooling process S6. Further, it is preferable that much concave portions C are formed, as the radially contracted diameter amount by the cooling process S6 is large. That is, in a case where the radially contracted diameter amount by the cooling process S6 is different, for example, when a position of the hole H in the workpiece W is not an approximately center portion, but is near to a bent portion of the workpiece W, the enlarged diameter amount of the hole H by the concave portions C is preferably set to be larger, as the direction of the radially contracted diameter amount by the cooling process S6 is large. According to the shape of the hole H having the diameter of B, of which the diameter is enlarged by the concave portions C, the radially enlarged diameter amount is increased in the region where many concave portions C are formed. The concave portions C are disposed so that the hole H has a wanted shape (e.g., a true circular shape which is larger than the true circle having the diameter of A when it is formed in the cutting process S4, and is not significantly deformed) after the cooling process S6.
- Returning to the description about the process of the hot-press forming method illustrated in
FIG. 2 , after the working of the concave portions C, the workpiece W is cooled together with themold 1 in the state in which theupper die 2 is held in the bottom dead center, to prevent the workpiece W from being deformed due to the contraction caused by the degradation in temperature. If the workpiece W is contracted by the cooling, the hole H having the diameter of B, of which the diameter is enlarged according to the radially enlarged diameter amount by the concave portions C, is contracted in diameter according to the radially contracted diameter amount, and thus is formed in a substantially true circle having at least a diameter of C (seeFIG. 4( a)) larger than the diameter of A. - In this instance, since the hole H is enlarged in diameter by the concave portions C against the radially contracted diameter amount by the cooling process S6 (diameter C>diameter A), the piercing
edge 24 a inserted in the hole H of the workpiece W is not restrained even when the hole H is contracted in diameter by the contraction of the workpiece W, so that the piercing edge can be easily separated from the workpiece W. - Then, when the
upper die 2 is moved to the top dead center to open the mold, the piercingedge 24 a is extracted from the hole H having the diameter of C without being brought into contact with the hole, and the workpiece W is withdrawn from themold 1. - Now, the workpiece W fabricated by the hot-press forming method will be described.
FIG. 4( a) is an enlarged view around the hole H of the workpiece W fabricated by the hot-press forming method according to the embodiment. As illustrated inFIG. 4( a), the work W having the hole H which is fabricated by the hot-press forming method includes the hole H which is formed by the piercing working using the piercingedge 24 a in the cutting process S4 after the heating process S1, and is subjected to the cooling process S6 to cool the workpiece W in the state in which the piercingedge 24 a is inserted in the hole H, and the concave portions C which are formed around the hole H in the concave portion forming process S5 after the piercing working, and enlarge the diameter of the hole by the enlarged diameter amount larger than the contracted diameter amount by the cooling process S6. - As illustrated in
FIG. 4( a), supposing that the diameter of the hole subjected to the piercing working by the piercingedge 24 a and the outer diameter of the piercingedge 24 a which is substantially equal to the diameter are the diameter of A indicated by the broken line, the enlarged diameter of the hole which is enlarged in diameter by the concave portions C is the diameter of B indicated by a double-dotted line, and the contracted diameter of the hole which is contracted in diameter by the cooling is the diameter of C indicated by the solid line, the relationship of diameter B>diameter C>diameter A is established. The relationship of diameter B>diameter C>diameter A causes the piercingedge 24 a having the outer diameter of A to be easily withdrawn from the hole H having the diameter of C. - The following effects are shown by the hot-press forming method according to the embodiment.
- (1) Since the diameter of the hole H is enlarged by the slightly small amount by forming the concave portions C around the hole H, the enlarged diameter amount of the hole H being larger than the retracted diameter amount by the cooling process S6, the diameter of the hole H can be maintained in the enlarged state (diameter C>diameter A), even though the workpiece W cooled in the cooling process S6 is contracted. Accordingly, even though the hole H inserted with the piercing
edge 24 a is subjected to the cooling process S6 after the piercing working is carried out, the piercingedge 24 a is not restrained in the hole H which is enlarged in diameter, so that the piercingedge 24 a can be easily separated from the workpiece W having the high hardness. Accordingly, the piercing working can be easily carried out in the hot-press forming method. - (2) Since the enlarged diameter amount of the hole H by the concave portions C is larger than the contracted diameter amount by the cooling process S6, the enlarged diameter of the hole H can be maintained even though the workpiece W cooled by the cooling process S6 is contracted.
- (3) The enlarged diameter amount of the hole H by the concave portions C is large as the direction of the radially contracted diameter amount by the cooling process S6 is large. Therefore, in the case where the radially contracted diameter amount by the cooling process S6 is different, the shape of the hole H is not significantly deformed from the shape obtained by the cutting process S4.
- The invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and can be varied or modified without departing from the spirit or scope defined by the appended claims.
- In the embodiment, the concave portions C are formed around the hole H by the score punch 25 a, but the present invention is not limited thereto. If the hole H is enlarged in diameter, a convex portion or a concave/convex portion may be formed.
- In the embodiment, much concave portions C are formed as the direction of the radially contracted diameter amount by the cooling process S6 is large, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The concave portions C is preferably formed to be large (make a machining amount or a machining area large), as illustrated in
FIG. 4( b), as the direction of the radially contracted diameter amount by the cooling process S6 is large. Further, much concave portions C may be simultaneously formed. That is, it is desirable that the enlarged diameter amount of the H by the concave portions C is set to be larger, as the direction of the radially contracted diameter amount by the cooling process S6 is large. - In the embodiment, much concave portions C are formed as the direction of the radially contracted diameter amount by the cooling process S6 is large, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The concave portions C may be placed in plural at regular intervals at an equal radius position from the center of the hole H around the hole H, as illustrated in
FIG. 4( c), or may be formed in a circular shape to enclose the hole H, as illustrated inFIG. 4( d). In this instance, the diameter of the hole can be always maintained in a true circular shape in each process of the hot-press forming method, and the shape of the hole H after the quenching can be easily formed in a wanted true circular shape. - In the embodiment, the timing of cutting the end portion of the workpiece W by the upper and lower trimming edges 23 a and 31 a and the timing of piercing the workpiece W by the piercing
edge 24 a are almost equal, but the present invention is not limited thereto. Both working may be performed at a different timing. - Further, in the embodiment, the form shaping and the cutting are performed simultaneously, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The forming may be forming such as drawing forming, except for the form shaping, or the forming and the cutting may not be performed simultaneously.
