Since the raised portion is located at a high position and the raised portion has multiple sharp corners (R angle is about 0.5mm) and complex shapes, the material fluidity is poor during the forming process, which is easy to cause cracking and wrinkling after drawing, affecting the function and appearance of the product.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0045] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments so that those skilled in the art can better understand the present invention and implement it, but the embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0046] In an embodiment of the present invention, a rear fender production line for a high-end motorcycle is proposed, which includes a drawing die, a trimming die, a flanging die, etc. Before the drawing die is processed, a steel plate die is required to prepare the material. After the material is transported to the drawing die, it is drawn and formed to form the preliminary outline of the entire rear fender; then the intermediate product of the drawing and forming is cut with excess edge material through a trimming die, and finally the intermediate product that has been cut with edge material is flanging formed through a flanging die, thereby completing the entire rear fender production process; however, in the current forming process, the forming of the raised part in the rear fender is mainly achieved by a drawing die. Since the raised part is located at a higher position and has a smaller rounded corner, it is easy to crack after one-time forming. In order to improve the above problem, a shaping die for shaping the raised part on the intermediate product is added after the drawing and forming, thereby improving the mechanical properties and structural strength of the raised part.

[0047] Specifically, Figure 2 to Figure 4 As shown, the shaping mold includes an upper mold 1 and a lower mold 2 that cooperate with each other, and the intermediate product formed by drawing is positioned after the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2 are molded together. The shaping is mainly performed on the raised part, so the intermediate product needs to be reliably positioned before shaping without causing damage to the already formed structure. Therefore, the intermediate product needs to be fit and positioned by the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2; a shaping die core 3 for positioning the raised part of the intermediate product is provided on the upper mold 1, and a shaping punch core 4 for squeezing the raised part of the intermediate product is provided on the lower mold 2, so that the shaping die cavity is formed by the shaping die core 3 and the shaping punch core 4; after the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2 are molded together, the raised part is pressed and shaped by the shaping die core 3 and the shaping punch core 4, so that the raised part can be locally shaped without causing structural damage to the already formed part.

[0048] Among them, the upper die 1 includes an upper die base 11 and an upper die core 12 installed on the upper die base 11, and the upper die base 11 is also equipped with at least two symmetrically arranged upper nitrogen springs 13 for pushing the upper die core 12 to slide longitudinally; at the same time, the upper die base 11 is also provided with an upper limit slider 14 for limiting the sliding of the upper die core 12; and the shaping die core 3 is installed on the upper die base 11, and the upper die core 12 is provided with an upper slide groove 15 for passing through the shaping die core 3; and the lower die 2 includes a lower die base 21 and a lower die core 22 installed on the lower die base 21; and at least two symmetrically arranged and used upper nitrogen springs 13 are installed on the lower die base 21. A lower nitrogen spring 23 is provided to push the lower die core 22 to slide longitudinally; at the same time, a lower limit slider 24 is also provided on the lower die base 21 for limiting the sliding of the lower die core 22; specifically, the shaping punch core 4 is installed on the lower die base 21, and the lower die core 22 is provided with a lower sliding groove 25 for passing the shaping punch core 4; the upper die core 12 and the lower die core 22 cooperate with each other to reliably position the intermediate product, and then the shaping concave die core 3 and the shaping punch core 4 cooperate to shape the raised part; after the shaping is completed, the upper die core 12 is pushed to move by the upper nitrogen spring 13, and the lower die core 22 is pushed to move by the lower nitrogen spring 23 to achieve demolding.

[0049] In order to achieve a stable guiding process when the upper mold base 11 and the lower mold base 21 approach each other, a symmetrically arranged positioning seat 5 and a guide rod 6 installed on the positioning seat 5 are installed on the lower mold base 21; and a guide seat 7 that slides with the guide rod 6 is installed on the upper mold base 11; through the sliding cooperation between the guide seat 7 and the guide rod 6, the function of limiting guidance is realized in the process of the upper mold 1 moving downward, thereby ensuring an accurate mold closing process.

[0050] At the same time, in order to limit the relative movement distance between the lower die base 21 and the upper die base 11, at least two symmetrically arranged lower positioning rods 8 are installed on the lower die base 21; an upper positioning rod 9 is installed on the upper die base 11 to be positioned against the lower positioning rod 8. After the upper die base 11 and the lower die base 21 are close to each other, the upper positioning rod 9 and the lower positioning rod 8 are used to limit the relative movement position to avoid damage to the already formed structure due to excessive force.

[0051] At the same time, in order to facilitate the lifting of the upper die 1 and the lower die 2, lifting bearing blocks 10 symmetrically arranged in pairs are installed on the upper die base 11 and the lower die base 21.

[0052] The invention also proposes a processing technology for a rear fender production line of a high-end motorcycle, comprising the following steps:

[0053] 1) Roll steel plates and cut them into lining blocks;

[0054] 2) Drawing;

[0055] 3) Shaping, edge trimming, first pressing the fender and then shaping, pressing the material and pressing the appearance;

[0056] 4) Trimming

[0057] 5) Flanging and shaping,

[0058] Flanging: Flanging the two long edges; Shaping: Shaping the bulge in the middle;

[0059] 6) Punch holes. Punch the mounting holes. First, punch the holes connected to the seat in a forward direction, and then punch the taillight mounting holes and the frame steel pipe connection holes diagonally.

[0060] Preferably, the deformation rate during drawing is within 20%, and no cracking or wrinkling is allowed.

[0061] The middle bulge is shaped by a shaping process, which ensures the performance and structure of the bulge without affecting the product attributes of the appearance. The bulge after shaping has a small R angle, the material is not easy to flow, and the product is not easy to crack.

[0062] Design the optimal pre-forming surface for the convex part of the drawing and shaping process, through which the material can be guided to the corner area where the material is not easy to flow. If the material flows too much, it will wrinkle, affecting the appearance of the commodity. If the material flows too little, it will crack, affecting the function of the product. Therefore, it is necessary to accurately calculate the volume of the convex part based on the principle of constant volume, reversely calculate and design the pre-forming surface, and protect and limit the material flow of the appearance surface in other areas except the convex area to a certain extent by pre-pressing other appearance surfaces, so as to avoid the orange peel or ripple effect caused by uneven material flow on the product surface, which affects the product appearance.
