Problems solved by technology

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the problem of uneven wall thickness distribution of formed parts and easy cracking in local areas when using rigid molds at room temperature for stamping or thermal deformation when forming thin-walled metal bellows mentioned in the background technology, resulting in surface quality of formed parts. Poor, and the method of using rubber elements to form corrugated surfaces is relatively complicated, and the production efficiency is low. A thin-walled metal bellows forming method based on shape memory polymers is provided.

Abstract

The invention provides a method for forming a thin-wall metal bellows based on a shape memory polymer and relates to a thin-wall metal bellows forming method. The invention aims at solving the problems that wall thickness distribution of a formed part is uneven, a local region can be easily cracked, a forming device is complex and cost is relatively high when a steel die is used for carrying out stamping forming of a thin-wall metal bellows with relatively high material strength at room temperature. According to key points of the technical scheme, the method provided by the invention comprises the following steps: preparing a ripple shape memory polymer, making a forming die, making a core die to be assembled with the forming die, filling a medium bin with rubbery state shape memory polymer material, naturally cooling the shape memory polymer to room temperature, opening the die, and taking out the formed part. The method provided by the invention is applied to thin-wall metal bellows forming.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a thin-wall metal corrugated pipe forming method based on a shape memory polymer, and belongs to the technical field of pipe forming. Background technique [0002] Thin-walled metal bellows is a shell component with transverse corrugation and certain deflection, which is widely used in aerospace, petrochemical, automobile and ship, electrical instrumentation and other industrial fields. It mainly uses its own elastic deformation function. In addition to its elastic properties, it also has various properties such as corrosion resistance, impact resistance, high temperature resistance, and good sealing. It is a multifunctional component that can withstand external forces. Axial, angular, lateral and their combined displacements are generated. For thin-walled and ultra-thin-walled metal bellows with high strength, stamping or thermal deformation at room temperature is generally used at present. No matter which of the above formi...
