Numerical simulation method of novel high-strength steel spoke drawing punching combined process

Abstract

The invention discloses a numerical simulation method of a novel high-strength steel spoke drawing punching combined process. By means of establishment of an accurate finite element model, a forming process of a novel high strength steel plate for spoke production can be observed, distribution of wall thickness, stress, strain and damages in the spoke forming process can be obtained, possible forming defects such as excessively thinning and pull cracks of the plate in the spoke forming process can be discovered in time, forming properties of the plate can be evaluated in advance before the novel high strength steel plate is used for spoke actual production, thereby, the process design scheme can be effectively improved, mold parameters can be optimized, spoke product qualities are improved, rejection rate of products is reduced, large manpower and material inputs caused by trial and error can be avoided, the market competitiveness of the high-strength steel products is improved, application and development of novel high-strength steel wheels are facilitated, and the basis is provided for optimization of steel for high-strength wheels.

Description

1. Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of wheel spoke manufacturing, and in particular relates to a numerical simulation method for a novel high-strength steel spoke drawing and punching composite process. 2. Background technology [0002] The wheel spoke is the main support connecting the rim and the hub of the car, and it is also a key part of the safety of the wheel. The traditional materials for manufacturing the spokes are mainly aluminum alloy and low carbon steel. With the continuous improvement of the automotive industry's requirements for safety performance and product lightweight, high-strength steel is widely used in spoke forming due to its safety and economical advantages such as lower yield ratio and lower cost than lighter materials. . [0003] The spoke stamping forming process consists of multiple processes, including deep drawing punching, forming, edge trimming, punching holes, and burrs in the pressure holes. The deep-drawing and p...
