Abstract

The invention discloses a thermal molding method of a high-strength aluminum alloy sheet. The thermal molding method is mainly characterized by comprising the steps of placing a thermal-insulated granular medium into a charging barrel; heating an aluminum alloy sheet to a temperature which is 10-20 DEG C higher than the melting point of an eutecticum; heating an upper blank holder and a lower blank holder of a mold, keeping the temperatures of the upper blank holder and the lower blank holder of the mold consistent with the heating temperature of the aluminum alloy sheet, then, rapidly moving the heated high-temperature sheet into the heated upper blank holder and lower blank holder of the mold, rapidly closing the mold to keep the temperature, and applying a blank holder force by a blank holder slide; loading the thermal-insulated granular medium through a backpressure head; and pressing a cooling male mold to take a combined action with the thermal-insulated granular medium of a soft female mold, and after finishing molding, rapidly transferring a workpiece by clamping to 20-60 DEG C water for quenching treatment. According to the thermal molding method, thermal treatment of the aluminum alloy sheet and a flexible molding technology realized by using the soft female mold are combined by virtue of the characteristic of the thermal-insulated granular medium, and the differential temperature molding process of the sheet is realized through the synergic effect of the cooling male mold, the thermal-insulated granular medium and the high-temperature blank holders, so that the molding property of the sheet can be effectively improved; and the thermal molding method has the characteristics of high molding quality, convenience in realization, low equipment requirement and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a forming method of an aluminum alloy plate component. Background technique [0002] Energy saving and emission reduction is one of the leading directions of industrial development at present. In order to achieve this goal, it is an effective means to replace traditional carbon steel alloy materials with light alloy materials to achieve lightweight components. Aluminum alloy is one of the most widely used lightweight alloy materials. Its low density, high strength, high hardness and other high-quality properties make it the first choice for lightweight components. The specific strength value of aluminum alloy thin shell components exceeds that of many alloy steels, coupled with its excellent electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and corrosion resistance, there are many application requirements in machinery manufacturing, transportation machinery, power machinery and aviation industry. However, the aluminum alloy sheet...
