[0043] In order for those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of the present application, the present application is further described in detail below in combination with the drawings and specific embodiments.

[0044] The deep drawing forming die is used for deep drawing forming a long strip-shaped part with a large end and a small end, and the long strip-shaped part in the embodiment is an automobile central passage 3, as shown in Figure 2 ,​Figure 2 Structure diagram of automobile central channel 3 formed by deep drawing forming die in the embodiment of the present application.

[0045] The automobile central channel 3 is raised in the middle to form a raised portion 32, the raised portion 32 constitutes the main body of the automobile central channel 3, and the two sides of the raised portion 32 are channel edges 31, Figure 2 The left end of the raised portion 32 of the automobile central channel 3 has a certain slope and is tapered to the middle, thus forming a small end, and the other end is a large end. It is found that the flow amount required by the sheet metal at the small end is less, but the initial sheet metal in the small end and the large end of the deep drawing forming die is the same, so the initial sheet metal at the small end is actually excessive, and the modeling portion 013 position in the background technology cannot consume the excessive sheet metal, thereby causing serious local accumulation of sheet metal, leading to serious wrinkling of the processed part and damage to the die, and it is difficult to realize batch production.

[0046] Please continue to refer to Figures 3-5 , Figure 3 Structure diagram of the die 2 in the embodiment of the present application; Figure 4 is Figure 3 Contour diagram of the end of the die 2 in the embodiment of the present application; Figure 5 is Figure 3 Diagram of the end of the die 2 in the embodiment of the present application; Figure 6 Structure diagram of the punch forming portion 11 and the punch process modeling portion 13 in the embodiment of the present application; Figure 7 is Figure 6 Diagram of the end of the punch forming portion 11 and the punch process modeling portion 13 in the embodiment of the present application.

[0047] The deep drawing forming die includes a punch 1 and a die 2, the punch 1 and the die 2 include a punch forming portion 11 and a die forming portion 21 matched with the processed part, as shown in Figure 3 , 6 The die forming portion 21, the punch forming portion 11 and the raised portion 32 of the automobile central channel 3 are matched, so there is a small end 211 and a small end 111 matched with the small end 321 of the raised portion 32. It is worth noting that in the embodiment, the small end 111 of the punch forming portion 11 and the small end 211 of the die forming portion 21 continue to extend in the length direction to form a punch process modeling portion 23 and a die process modeling portion 13, and the punch process modeling portion 23 and the die process modeling portion 13 need to be cut off after the deep drawing step.

[0048] As Figures 3-5As shown, the middle part of the die forming part 23 is recessed to form a die center groove 231. The groove opening of the die center groove 231 faces upward. Since the entire middle part of the die forming part 23 is recessed downward, a bottom wall 231a and a U-shaped peripheral wall 231b with an outer end opening are formed after the recess. That is, the outer end opening of the die center groove 231 is the end of the die forming part 23 that is away from the die forming part 21 along the length direction.

[0049] Let's look again. Figure 6 The punch forming section 13 has a punch central through groove 131 corresponding to the die central groove 231. It is basically the same as the die central groove 231, except that the punch central through groove 131 has no bottom wall and is a through groove structure. The punch central through groove 131 also has an open outer end, which is the end of the punch forming section 13 furthest from the punch forming section 11. The peripheral wall 131a of the punch central through groove 131 is also U-shaped. In essence, both the die forming section 23 and the punch forming section 13 are open-type forming structures with open outer ends.

[0050] Furthermore, since both the die forming section 23 and the punch forming section 13 are formed by extending from their respective forming sections, and the forming section corresponds to the raised section 32 of the central channel 3 of the car and has a certain height, the sides of the recessed central groove 231 of the die will form side protrusions 232 of the die with the same height as the forming section. The side protrusions 232 of the die are equivalent to forming bulges on both sides of the central groove 231 of the die. These bulges are extensions formed by extending from both sides of the forming section 21 of the die. Therefore, the side protrusions 232 of the die are groove structures, and the groove direction is the same as the notch direction of the forming section 21 of the die. Specifically, in Figure 3 When the center is facing downwards, the groove direction of the protrusion 232 on the side of the die is opposite to the groove direction of the groove 231 in the middle of the die. The depth of the protrusion 232 on the side of the die and the groove 231 in the middle of the die are the same as the height of the small end 211 of the die forming part 21. The sameness mentioned in this article does not require complete equality. Due to the deviation of the process, it is acceptable to be slightly higher or slightly lower.

[0051] Correspondingly, on both sides of the through groove 131 in the middle of the punch, punch side protrusions 132 will be formed simultaneously. The punch side protrusions 132 are extensions formed by extending from both sides of the punch forming part 11. Therefore, the punch side protrusions 132 have a slot structure, and the slot direction is the same as the recess direction of the entire punch forming part 13. Specifically, in Figure 6 In the middle, the slot of the punch side protrusion 132 faces downward, and the depth of the punch side protrusion 132 and the punch middle through groove 131 is the same as the height of the small end 111 of the punch forming part 11.

[0052] Please continue reading. Figure 8 , Figure 8This is a schematic diagram of the lower die pressing part 12 in the lower die assembly of an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 8 The main part is a schematic diagram of the surface of the lower die pressing part 12.

[0053] In this embodiment, the deep drawing die actually includes an upper die assembly and a lower die assembly. The lower die assembly includes a separately configured punch 1 and a lower die blanking part 12. The punch 1 includes... Figure 6 The punch forming part 11 and the punch process shaping part 13 are integrated in the middle, and the blank holder 12 is... Figure 8 The components for pressing material shown include a lower die assembly with a base, a pressing part 12 and a punch 1 both disposed on the base (not shown in the figure), an upper die assembly with a base, and the aforementioned die 2 also disposed on the base.

[0054] Let's look again. Figure 3 The die 2 also includes a die blanking part 22, but the die blanking part 22, the die forming part 21, and the die process shaping part 23 are integrally formed. When the die forming part 21 extends along the length direction to form the die process shaping part 23, the die blanking part 22 extends forward at the same time, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the length of the die blanking part 22 extends to be flush with the die process shaping part 23. For the split punch 1, the lower die blanking part 12 located on both sides of the punch forming part 11 also extends to be flush with the punch process shaping part 13.

[0055] In this embodiment, the deep drawing die undergoes the following steps during the deep drawing process:

[0056] The sheet metal is placed between the upper cavity 2 and the lower die pressing part 12;

[0057] The die 2 and the lower die pressing part 12 move relative to each other to press the sheet metal. For example, the die 2 can move downwards and approach the lower die pressing part 12 until the sheet metal is pressed.

[0058] Then, the die 2 and the punch 1 move relative to each other, for example, the lower punch forming part 11 moves upward. As the relative movement between the two continues, the sheet metal is drawn into the primary product of the automotive central tunnel 3.

[0059] Finally, after removing the excess parts of the primary product, other processing can be performed, such as edge shaping, to ultimately form the central tunnel 3 of the car. It can be understood that the punch 1 and the die 2 are in a relative motion relationship; either one can move. Furthermore, it is not limited to the punch 1 being located below; the die 2 can also be located below. This solution does not impose any specific restrictions.

[0060] Combined with appendix Figure 3 , 5It can be understood that the shape change of the sheet metal during the deep drawing process, when the sheet metal is drawn, the concave part process modeling part 23 and the convex part process modeling part 13 extend forward from the corresponding forming part, and the middle part is depressed, forming the concave side protrusion 232 and the convex side protrusion 132 on both sides, which can control the flow of the sheet metal on the side to the middle. For the sheet metal in the middle before drawing, the concave part groove 231 and the convex part through groove 131 can not only control the flow speed of the middle sheet metal, but also, more importantly, can absorb the excess sheet metal during the forming of the small end. The entire concave part process modeling part 23 and convex part process modeling part 21 are open type design with open end, and the flow direction of the sheet metal is mainly along the width direction, which is not easy to accumulate together to form wrinkles. It can be seen that the concave die 2 and the convex die 1 with the open type process modeling part structure can increase the cross-sectional length of the process modeling part in the width direction, control the inflow amount and direction of the sheet metal in the width direction, and absorb the excess sheet metal, thereby reducing or even eliminating the local wrinkling phenomenon of the part to be processed at the small end in the drawing process, avoiding mold damage, improving production efficiency, and reducing production cost, so as to realize normal batch production of the part to be processed.

[0061] Moreover, since the extended process modeling part is also used as a pressure material, and the pressure material effect is better, the required pressure surface of the small end in the length direction of the part can be reduced, the size of the sheet metal required for stamping is significantly reduced, thereby improving the material utilization rate, reducing production cost, improving economic benefit and market competitiveness. For the automobile central channel, the size of the sheet metal in the length direction is significantly reduced, and the material utilization rate can be improved by about 4%.

[0062] In the above embodiment, the concave die process modeling part 23 and the convex die process modeling part 13 are depressed in the middle part to form a middle part groove and a middle part through groove. It can be understood that more side protrusions can also be provided, and the corresponding side protrusions are also more. Similarly, the flow resistance and the absorption of excess sheet metal can also be increased. However, the concave die middle part groove 231 and the convex die middle part through groove 131 can already improve the local wrinkling phenomenon and do not affect the smoothness of the sheet metal flow, and can better ensure the quality of the part to be processed during the deep drawing process.

[0063] Please continue to check Figure 3 , 5, the lower die pressing part 12 and the concave die pressing part are respectively provided with a lower die long groove 122 and a concave die long groove 222, the lower die long groove 122 and the concave die long groove 222 are through the corresponding lower die pressing part 12 and concave die pressing part 22 along the length direction, and the lower die long groove 122 is arranged corresponding to the both sides of the male die forming part 11, and the concave die long groove 222 is arranged corresponding to the both sides of the concave die forming part 21. The lower die long groove 122 and the concave die long groove 222 can increase the flow resistance of the plate in the deep drawing process, control the flow speed of the plate, slow down the speed of the plate flowing into the mold cavity, and reduce and avoid the wrinkling of the automobile central channel.

[0064] In addition, the concave die pressing part 22 and the lower die pressing part 12 are respectively provided with a lower die drawing rib 121 and a concave die drawing rib 221 at one end corresponding to the small end, the lower die drawing rib 121 and the concave die drawing rib 221 are arranged outside the corresponding lower die long groove 122 and concave die long groove 222 along the length direction, and also slow down the speed of the plate flowing into the mold cavity.

[0065] In the above embodiment, the male die process modeling part 13 is provided with a male die middle part through groove 131 corresponding to the concave die middle part groove 231, at this time, the lower die pressing part 12 can also include a lower die pressing plate 123 corresponding to the top of the male die middle part through groove 131, so as to more reliably press the plate before deep drawing. It can be understood that the middle part of the male die process modeling part 13 can also be a male die middle part groove corresponding to the concave die middle part groove 231, and is not limited to the through groove structure.

[0066] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present application, and it should be pointed out that for ordinary skilled in the art, without departing from the principles of the present application, a number of improvements and refinements can be made, and these improvements and refinements should be considered as the protection scope of the present application.
