The wire is formed first by the first roller group 11 , then by the second roller group 12 , and finally by the third roller group 13 . Hereinafter, the forming of the wire by the first roller group 11 is called "first process", the forming of the wire by the second roller group 12 is called "second process", and the forming of the wire by the third roller group 13 is called " 3rd step”. In both the first step and the second step, the wire is plastically deformed.
　本実施の形態において、所定の線材の外形寸法と、線材が通過するローラ同士の隙間との差を「押込量」と呼ぶ。たとえば、所定の線材の外形寸法が「１．０００ｍｍ」、ローラ間隔が「０．９９８ｍｍ」の場合は、押込量は「０．００２ｍｍ」である。 In the present embodiment, the difference between the outer dimensions of a predetermined wire rod and the gap between the rollers through which the wire rod passes is called "pressing amount". For example, if the outer dimension of the predetermined wire rod is "1.000 mm" and the roller interval is "0.998 mm", the pushing amount is "0.002 mm".
　第１ローラ群１１、第２ローラ群１２、および第３ローラ群１３のそれぞれは、ローラが上下２列に並んでおり、線材はその略中央を通過する。第１ローラ群１１、第２ローラ群１２、および第３ローラ群１３のそれぞれは、少なくとも３つのローラを含む。第１ローラ群１１、第２ローラ群１２、および第３ローラ群１３のそれぞれに含まれるローラの数は異なってもよい。なお図２では、第１ローラ群１１、第２ローラ群１２、および第３ローラ群１３の全ての下列のローラが一直線状に並んでいるが、構成の一例にすぎない。 In each of the first roller group 11, the second roller group 12, and the third roller group 13, the rollers are arranged vertically in two rows, and the wire passes through approximately the center thereof. Each of the first roller group 11, the second roller group 12, and the third roller group 13 includes at least three rollers. The number of rollers included in each of the first roller group 11, the second roller group 12, and the third roller group 13 may be different. In FIG. 2, all the lower row rollers of the first roller group 11, the second roller group 12, and the third roller group 13 are arranged in a straight line, but this is only an example of the configuration.
　第１ローラ群１１のそれぞれは、外周がウレタンゴムでモールドされ、後述するようにモータにより駆動される駆動ローラである。ローラが駆動される方向は線材の動きに沿う方向であり、具体的には、図示上側のローラは反時計回りに駆動され、図示下側のローラは時計回りに駆動される。第１ローラ群１１における、線材が通過するローラ同士の隙間は、上流側から下流側にかけて押込量が順次減少するように設定される。なお以下では、線材が通過するローラ同士の隙間を「ローラ間隔」とも呼ぶ。 Each of the first roller group 11 is a driving roller whose outer periphery is molded with urethane rubber and which is driven by a motor as described later. The direction in which the rollers are driven is along the movement of the wire. Specifically, the rollers on the upper side in the drawing are driven counterclockwise, and the rollers on the lower side in the drawing are driven clockwise. In the first roller group 11, the gap between the rollers through which the wire passes is set so that the amount of pushing is gradually decreased from the upstream side to the downstream side. In addition, below, the clearance gap between the rollers through which a wire passes is also called "roller clearance."
　第２ローラ群１２および第３ローラ群１３のそれぞれは、金属製であり、外部からの動力による駆動は行われない。第２ローラ群１２におけるローラの間隔は、上流側から下流側にかけて押込量が順次減少するように設定され、第２ローラ群１２における最後の押込量はゼロに設定される。また第２ローラ群１２における最上流の押込量は、第１ローラ群１１における最下流の押込量よりも小さい。第３ローラ群１３における押込量は、いずれもゼロに設定される。 Each of the second roller group 12 and the third roller group 13 is made of metal and is not driven by external power. The interval between the rollers in the second roller group 12 is set so that the amount of pushing gradually decreases from the upstream side to the downstream side, and the final amount of pushing in the second roller group 12 is set to zero. Further, the most upstream pushing amount of the second roller group 12 is smaller than the most downstream pushing amount of the first roller group 11 . All the push amounts in the third roller group 13 are set to zero.
　第２ローラ群１２は、上列の複数のローラが一体に固定され、上列の最後尾のローラを軸として回転可能に構成される。第２ローラ群１２における最後の押込量がゼロとなるように上列の最後尾のローラの位置があらかじめ決定され、このローラの位置は線材が変更されない限り再調整されない。本実施の形態では、第２ローラ群１２における上列のローラの中心を結ぶ直線と第２ローラ群１２における下列のローラの中心を結ぶ直線とがなす角を、「配置角θｘ」と呼ぶ。後述する調整の過程でしか起こりえないが、仮に配置角θｘがゼロ度の場合は、上列と下列が並行であり第２ローラ群１２における押込量は全てゼロとなる。調整が完了し線材を成形する状態における第２ローラ群１２は、上流側ほど押込量が大きくなるように、配置角θｘが設定される。 The second roller group 12 is configured such that a plurality of rollers in the upper row are integrally fixed and rotatable about the last roller in the upper row. The position of the last roller in the upper row is determined in advance so that the final pushing amount in the second roller group 12 is zero, and the position of this roller is not readjusted unless the wire is changed. In the present embodiment, the angle formed by a straight line connecting the centers of the upper row rollers in the second roller group 12 and a straight line connecting the centers of the lower row rollers in the second roller group 12 is called an "arrangement angle θx". If the arrangement angle θx is zero degrees, the upper row and the lower row are parallel, and the pressing amount of the second roller group 12 is all zero, although this can occur only in the process of adjustment, which will be described later. The arrangement angle θx of the second roller group 12 is set such that the pressing amount increases toward the upstream side when the adjustment is completed and the wire is formed.
　図３は、成形装置１における押込量の概略図である。図３における縦軸は押込量を示し、図示上部ほど大きい正の値を示し、最小値はゼロである。図３における横軸は成形装置１の押し込みが行われる位置のＸ座標値を示しており、図示左側が上流側、図示右側が下流側を示す。第１ローラ群１１と第２ローラ群の全体において、上流側から下流側にかけて押込量は順次減少してゼロに至る。第３ローラ群１３における押込量はいずれもゼロである。なお図３では、第１ローラ群１１における最小の押込量と、第２ローラ群１２における最大の押込量の比は数倍であるが、１０倍以上や５０倍以上でもよい。 FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of the pushing amount in the molding device 1. FIG. The vertical axis in FIG. 3 indicates the pushing amount, and the higher the figure, the larger the positive value, and the minimum value is zero. The horizontal axis in FIG. 3 indicates the X-coordinate value of the position where the pressing of the molding apparatus 1 is performed, the left side in the drawing indicates the upstream side, and the right side in the drawing indicates the downstream side. In the entirety of the first roller group 11 and the second roller group, the pushing amount gradually decreases from the upstream side to the downstream side and reaches zero. All of the push amounts in the third roller group 13 are zero. In FIG. 3, the ratio of the minimum pushing amount in the first roller group 11 and the maximum pushing amount in the second roller group 12 is several times, but it may be 10 times or more or 50 times or more.
　図４は、第１ローラ群１１を構成する各ローラ、すなわち駆動ローラの構成の一例を示す図である。駆動ローラ２２は、図４の右下に示すモータ３１から動力エネルギーを得て駆動する。モータ３１が発生する回転エネルギーは、タイミングプーリー３０、タイミングベルト２９、およびタイミングプーリー２８を経て、軸２７に伝達される。駆動ローラ２２は、前述のように位置調整が可能であり、図４では軸スライドネジ２５および軸スライドボックス２４によりＺ方向に位置を調整できる。この位置調整に対応できるように、軸２７と駆動ローラ２２との間には、ユニバーサルジョイント２６が介されている。 FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of each roller constituting the first roller group 11, that is, the drive roller. The drive roller 22 is driven by obtaining power energy from a motor 31 shown in the lower right of FIG. Rotational energy generated by motor 31 is transmitted to shaft 27 via timing pulley 30 , timing belt 29 and timing pulley 28 . The drive roller 22 is positionally adjustable as described above, and in FIG. A universal joint 26 is interposed between the shaft 27 and the drive roller 22 so as to be able to adjust the position.
（ローラの位置）
　第１ローラ群１１および第２ローラ群１２における、押込量の決定手順、換言すると各ローラの間隔の決定手順を説明する。なお第３ローラ群１３は、前述のように全て押込量がゼロなので、ローラ間隔は規定である線材の寸法と同一なのでここでは説明を省略する。以下に説明するように、先に第１ローラ群１１の調整を行い、その後に第２ローラ群１２の調整を行う。以下に説明する調整は、たとえばオペレータが実行してもよいし、コンピュータが演算してもよい。 (Roller position)
A procedure for determining the amount of pushing in the first roller group 11 and the second roller group 12, in other words, a procedure for determining the interval between the rollers, will be described. Since all the third roller group 13 have a pushing amount of zero as described above, the interval between the rollers is the same as the dimension of the wire, which is the regulation, and thus the description thereof is omitted here. As described below, the first roller group 11 is adjusted first, and then the second roller group 12 is adjusted. The adjustments described below may be performed, for example, by an operator or may be calculated by a computer.
　第１ローラ群１１における押込量の決定は、まず、線材の組成からその線材における最大の応力となる「引張強さ」に対応するひずみを特定する。この特定にはたとえば、物性表やデータベースが利用できる。次に、特定したひずみと、所定の割合、たとえば「０．６」との積を算出し、これを「目標ひずみ」と名付ける。そして、押込量が順次減少し、かつ第１工程が完了した際に「目標ひずみ」となるように、第１ローラ群１１における各ローラの押込量を決定する。この決定には、シミュレーションソフトウエアを用いた計算の結果を利用してもよいし、成形装置１を用いた１回または複数回の実験結果を利用してもよい。 To determine the amount of pushing in the first roller group 11, first, the strain corresponding to the "tensile strength", which is the maximum stress in the wire rod, is specified from the composition of the wire rod. For this identification, for example, a physical property table or database can be used. Next, the specified strain is multiplied by a predetermined ratio, such as "0.6", and is named "target strain". Then, the pressing amount of each roller in the first roller group 11 is determined so that the pressing amount decreases sequentially and the "target strain" is reached when the first step is completed. For this determination, the results of calculations using simulation software may be used, or the results of one or more experiments using the molding apparatus 1 may be used.
　以上の手順により第１ローラ群１１における各ローラの押込量が決定できれば、所定の方針にしたがって第１ローラ群１１の位置を決定できる。所定の方針とはたとえば、第１ローラ群１１における下段のローラの位置を固定し、上段のローラの位置を調整することでローラ間隔を決定した値にすることである。決定した第１ローラ群１１の位置に第１ローラ群１１を設定し、次の第２ローラ群１２の押込量の決定処理に進む。 If the pressing amount of each roller in the first roller group 11 can be determined by the above procedure, the position of the first roller group 11 can be determined according to a predetermined policy. The predetermined policy is, for example, fixing the position of the lower roller in the first roller group 11 and adjusting the position of the upper roller to set the roller interval to a determined value. The first roller group 11 is set at the determined position of the first roller group 11, and the process proceeds to the determination process of the pressing amount of the second roller group 12 next.
　第２ローラ群１２における押込量は、配置角θｘにより決定される。最適な配置角θｘは、たとえばオペレータがｘｘを複数とおり変化させて第２工程の処理結果を実測することで決定される。以下に具体例を挙げて説明する。 The pushing amount of the second roller group 12 is determined by the arrangement angle θx. The optimum arrangement angle θx is determined, for example, by the operator changing xx in a plurality of ways and actually measuring the processing results of the second step. Specific examples will be described below.
　図５は、配置角θｘを決定するための試験結果の概念図である。図５における縦軸は反り量を示し、横軸は配置角θｘを示す。なお図５では配置角θｘをＳ１～Ｓ８の８つで示しているが、この８つは例示にすぎず、８よりも多くてもよいし少なくてもよい。反り量のプラスはＺ軸のプラス側に反ることを意味し、反り量のマイナスはＺ軸のマイナス側に反ることを意味する。図５には独立する２通りの試験結果を示しており、三角のプロットは第１工程から出力された線材がプラス側に大きく偏っていた場合を示し、四角のプロットは第１工程から出力された線材がマイナス側に大きく偏っていた場合を示す。 FIG. 5 is a conceptual diagram of test results for determining the arrangement angle θx. The vertical axis in FIG. 5 indicates the amount of warp, and the horizontal axis indicates the arrangement angle θx. Although eight arrangement angles S1 to S8 are shown in FIG. 5, these eight are merely examples, and may be more or less than eight. A plus amount of warp means warping to the plus side of the Z axis, and a minus amount of warpage means warping to the minus side of the Z axis. FIG. 5 shows two independent test results, the triangular plot indicates the case where the wire rod output from the first step is greatly biased to the positive side, and the square plot indicates the wire rod output from the first step. This figure shows the case where the wire rod was heavily biased to the negative side.
　三角のプロットで示す、第１工程から出力された線材がプラス側に大きく偏っていた場合は、配置角θｘが小さいＳ１の場合には第２工程における反りの矯正があまり働かず、依然として大きなプラスの値であることを示す。配置角θｘを大きくするほど反り量は減少し、図５に示す例では配置角θｘがＳ４の場合に反り量が概ねゼロとなる。配置角θｘをＳ４からさらに大きくすると、反り量が増加に転じて増加を続ける。図５に示す三角のプロットの結果が得られた場合は、オペレータは反り量の絶対値が最も小さいＳ４を配置角θｘに決定する。 When the wire rod output from the first step is greatly deviated to the positive side, as shown by the triangular plot, in the case of S1 where the arrangement angle θx is small, the warp correction in the second step does not work so much and the wire is still large positive. value. The warp amount decreases as the arrangement angle θx increases, and in the example shown in FIG. 5, the warp amount is approximately zero when the arrangement angle θx is S4. When the arrangement angle θx is further increased from S4, the amount of warpage turns to increase and continues to increase. When the triangular plotted result shown in FIG. 5 is obtained, the operator determines S4 with the smallest absolute value of the amount of warpage as the arrangement angle θx.
　四角のプロットで示す、第１工程から出力された線材がマイナス側に大きく偏っていた場合は、配置角θｘが小さいＳ１の場合には第２工程における反りの矯正があまり働かず、依然として大きなマイナスの値であることを示す。配置角θｘを大きくするほど反り量はゼロに近づき、図５に示す例では配置角θｘがＳ５の場合に反り量が概ねゼロとなる。配置角θｘをＳ５からさらに大きくすると、反り量が増加し続けてプラスの大きな値となる。図５に示す四角のプロットの結果が得られた場合は、オペレータは反り量の絶対値が最も小さいＳ５を配置角θｘに決定する。 When the wire rod output from the first step is greatly biased to the negative side, as indicated by the plotted squares, in the case of S1 where the arrangement angle θx is small, the warp correction in the second step does not work so much, and the wire is still large negative. value. As the arrangement angle θx increases, the amount of warp approaches zero. In the example shown in FIG. 5, the amount of warp is approximately zero when the arrangement angle θx is S5. When the arrangement angle θx is further increased from S5, the amount of warpage continues to increase and becomes a large positive value. When the square plotted result shown in FIG. 5 is obtained, the operator determines S5 with the smallest absolute value of the amount of warpage as the arrangement angle θx.
　上述した実施の形態によれば、次の作用効果が得られる。
（１）成形装置１は、図２の図示左側である上流側から、図示右側である下流側に移動する線材を次のように成形する。成形装置１による線材の成形は、次の第１工程と第２工程を含む。第１工程は、モータ３１により駆動される複数のローラである第１ローラ群１１により線材を押圧しながら送り出す。第２工程は、回転可能に支持される複数のローラである第２ローラ群１２により線材を押圧しながら送り出す。第１工程は、第２工程よりも上流側、すなわち図示左側に設けられる。線材の外形寸法と、線材が通過するローラ同士の隙間との差である押込量は、第１工程の方が第２工程よりも大きい。そのため、第１工程では駆動される第１ローラ群１１を用いて線材を送り出すことで線材に生じる張力を軽減して伸びを抑制しつつ反りを低減し、第２工程では第１工程よりも低い押込量とすることで線材の反りを安定して低減できる。すなわち成形装置１による成形方法により、線材の反りを安定して低減できる。 According to the embodiment described above, the following effects are obtained.
(1) The forming apparatus 1 forms a wire moving from the upstream side, which is the left side in FIG. 2, to the downstream side, which is the right side in the drawing, as follows. Forming of the wire by the forming apparatus 1 includes the following first step and second step. In the first step, the wire is sent out while being pressed by a first roller group 11 that is a plurality of rollers driven by a motor 31 . In the second step, the wire is sent out while being pressed by a second roller group 12, which is a plurality of rotatably supported rollers. The first step is provided upstream of the second step, that is, on the left side of the drawing. The pushing amount, which is the difference between the outer dimensions of the wire and the gap between the rollers through which the wire passes, is greater in the first step than in the second step. Therefore, in the first step, the wire is sent out using the first roller group 11 that is driven, thereby reducing the tension generated in the wire and suppressing the elongation while reducing the warp. By adjusting the pushing amount, it is possible to stably reduce the warpage of the wire. That is, the forming method by the forming apparatus 1 can stably reduce the warp of the wire.
（２）第１工程において、押込み量は上流側から下流側にかけて順次減少する。そのため、線材の反りをより安定して低減できる。 (2) In the first step, the pushing amount decreases sequentially from the upstream side to the downstream side. Therefore, the warp of the wire can be reduced more stably.
（３）第２工程において、押込み量は上流側から下流側にかけてゼロまで順次減少する。そのため、線材の反りをより安定して低減できる。 (3) In the second step, the pushing amount is gradually decreased from the upstream side to the downstream side to zero. Therefore, the warp of the wire can be reduced more stably.
（４）第１工程における最小の押込量は、第２工程における最大の押込量の、少なくとも１０倍である。そのため、第１工程では線材に強いひずみが付与され、加工硬化により機械的性質を揃えることができる。 (4) The minimum push in the first step is at least ten times the maximum push in the second step. Therefore, in the first step, a strong strain is imparted to the wire, and mechanical properties can be made uniform by work hardening.
（５）成形装置１による線材の成形は、第１工程および第２工程に加えて、回転可能に支持される複数のローラである第３ローラ群１３により線材を送り出す第３工程も含む。この第３工程は、第２工程よりも下流、すなわち図示右側に設けられる。第３工程における押込量はゼロである。そのため、押込量がゼロの第３ローラ群１３を用いて、線材自身の反りで矯正され、ばらつきを抑えることができる。 (5) The forming of the wire by the forming apparatus 1 includes, in addition to the first step and the second step, a third step of sending out the wire by the third roller group 13, which is a plurality of rotatably supported rollers. This third step is provided downstream of the second step, that is, on the right side of the drawing. The pushing amount in the third step is zero. Therefore, by using the third roller group 13 having a zero pressing amount, the warpage of the wire rod itself is corrected, and variations can be suppressed.
（６）第１ローラ群１１を構成するそれぞれのローラは、表面がウレタンゴムである。そのため、それぞれの駆動ローラに対する線材の追従性が向上し、線材の反りをより低減できる。 (6) Each roller constituting the first roller group 11 has a surface made of urethane rubber. Therefore, the followability of the wire with respect to each drive roller is improved, and the warpage of the wire can be further reduced.

The above-described embodiment may be modified as in the following <1> to <5>, and these <1> to <5> may be combined arbitrarily. That is, all the modifications <1> to <4> may be added to the configuration of the embodiment, or any one or more modifications <1> to <5> may be added.
＜１＞成形装置１が第３ローラ群１３を備えず、線材の成形において第３工程を備えなくてもよい。

＜３＞第１工程において、押込量は上流側から下流側にかけて順次減少しなくてもよい。
＜４＞第２工程において、押込量は上流側から下流側にかけて順次減少しなくてもよい。
＜５＞第１ローラ群１１を構成するローラは、外周にウレタンゴムがモールドされず、表面が金属でもよい。 <1> The forming apparatus 1 may not include the third roller group 13 and may not include the third step in forming the wire rod.
<2> The ratio of the minimum pushing amount in the first step and the maximum pushing amount in the second step may be several times.
<3> In the first step, the pushing amount does not have to decrease sequentially from the upstream side to the downstream side.
<4> In the second step, the pushing amount does not have to decrease sequentially from the upstream side to the downstream side.
<5> The rollers constituting the first roller group 11 may not be molded with urethane rubber on the outer periphery and may have a metal surface.
　この変形例１によれば、上述した実施の形態よりも反りの低減が不十分となる不利益や安定性に欠ける不利益はあるが、ローラ位置の調整が容易となる。またこれらの不利益が存在しても、要求される精度が満たすものであればよい。 According to Modification 1, the roller position can be easily adjusted, although there are disadvantages such as insufficient reduction in warpage and lack of stability as compared with the above-described embodiment. Moreover, even if these disadvantages exist, it is sufficient if the required accuracy is satisfied.
（変形例２）
　上述した実施の形態において説明した第２ローラ群１２における押込量の決定方法は一例にすぎない。たとえば、第２ローラ群１２における上段のローラの位置を個別に調整可能な構成とし、それぞれのローラの位置を少しずつ変化させながら反り量を測定することで、反り量が最も小さくなるローラの位置を決定してもよい。この場合は、実施の形態に比べて、ローラの位置調整の回数、および反り量を測定する回数が大幅に増加するが、実施の形態よりも反り量の絶対値を小さくできる可能性がある。 (Modification 2)
The method of determining the pushing amount in the second roller group 12 described in the above embodiment is merely an example. For example, the positions of the upper rollers in the second roller group 12 can be individually adjusted, and by measuring the amount of warpage while gradually changing the position of each roller, the position of the roller that minimizes the amount of warpage. may be determined. In this case, the number of times of roller position adjustment and the number of times of measuring the amount of warpage are significantly increased compared to the embodiment, but the absolute value of the amount of warp can be made smaller than in the embodiment.
　上記では、種々の実施の形態および変形例を説明したが、本発明はこれらの内容に限定されるものではない。本発明の技術的思想の範囲内で考えられるその他の態様も本発明の範囲内に含まれる。 Although various embodiments and modifications have been described above, the present invention is not limited to these contents.
