Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of shell plate manufacturing, and in particular to a double-conical curvature pressing die and a plate pressing method. Background Art

[0002] During shipbuilding, hull plates with linear shapes are typically processed using both hot working and cold working techniques. Hot working can handle complex hull plates and flexibly handles a wide range of hull plate shapes without the need for equipment. However, this method is relatively dependent on personnel skills, has a low degree of mechanization, suffers from low processing efficiency, and is susceptible to damage to the metallographic structure and mechanical properties. Cold working, assisted by heavy machinery, uses a universal punch tool to extrude the plate into the desired shape. Its advantages are high forming efficiency and no change to the hull plate's metallographic structure. However, the universal punch tool is currently limited to processing hull plates with a single linear shape. When processing complex hull plates, the plates must be pressed in multiple equal sections. This means the plates are assembled from two or three smaller hull plates, which inevitably compromises the plate's aesthetic appearance. Therefore, the universal punch tool is not suitable for the integrated processing of complex linear hull plates.

[0003] In summary, how to form a complex linear shell plate to solve the technical difficulties in the existing technology that cannot be achieved in one-piece molding due to complex linear processing, gradual linear curvature, and special metal structure urgently needs to be solved by technical personnel in this field.

[0095] Example 2

[0096] This embodiment also provides a method for pressing a plate, which includes the following steps:

[0097] S1: Provide a flat workpiece and determine the processing bearing center point of the flat workpiece;

[0098] A flat plate workpiece is provided, which has a certain plastic deformation capacity. Two center lines with different directions of curvature change of the double cone are drawn on the flat plate workpiece, and the intersection of the two center lines is marked to determine the point as the bearing center point of the workpiece.

[0099] S2: placing the flat workpiece in a pressing mold, which uses the double-cone curvature pressing mold in Example 1, and placing the flat workpiece on the lower mold of the double-cone curvature pressing mold. The upper mold moves toward the lower mold until it contacts the flat workpiece, so that the contact point between the upper mold and the flat workpiece deviates from the processing center point. The deviation range between the contact point and the processing center point is a circular area with a radius of 100 mm and the processing center point as the center.

[0100] Specifically, the upper mold in the double-conical curvature pressing mold in Example 1 is used to press the flat plate workpiece, so that the contact point between the upper mold and the flat plate workpiece deviates from the processing center point. The deviation range is within a circular area with a radius of 100 mm and an offset distance with the processing center point as the center of the circle, so as to avoid side shear force.

[0101] S3: The upper mold continues to move toward the lower mold to perform preliminary pressing on the flat workpiece;

[0102] The upper mold continues to move toward the lower mold, controlling the pressing pressure and maintaining pre-pressing at a position of ±5mm near the two center lines.

[0103] S4: Edge correction of the workpiece after preliminary pressing;

[0104] During the pressurization process, first continuously apply 800T downward pressure, hold the pressure for 1 minute, then continue to apply force to 1600T, hold the pressure for 3 minutes, then release the pressure and observe the rebound of the plate and the edge linear accuracy; if wrinkles appear after applying force on the edge, pause and release the pressure in time, and do not apply downward pressure until the edge wrinkles are eliminated.

[0105] S5: placing the edge-corrected workpiece in the double-tapered curvature pressing mold for secondary pressing and forming;

[0106] After the initial molding, the machining allowance is cut off and the mold is placed again. The pressure is applied quickly and continuously to 1600T. After holding the pressure for 3 minutes, it is taken out and the molding is completed.

[0107] It should be noted that during the initial pressing of flat workpieces, a 50° longitudinal force angle is optimal. During the workpiece fabrication process, analysis of the mold force angle indicates that when the longitudinal force angle is between 0 and 45°, the mold and workpiece generate lateral thrust, which limits edge bending at the workpiece, severely impacting the metal structural properties and linear accuracy of the workpiece edge area. Increasing the longitudinal force angle to 50° ensures that the center point of the mold contact surface coincides with the center of the workpiece, ensuring full alignment and preventing edge bending. A 40° transverse force angle is optimal. When the mold and workpiece meet longitudinal alignment requirements, if the transverse thrust angle between the workpiece and the mold contact surface exceeds 45°, the workpiece is susceptible to relative displacement at the mold contact surface, resulting in surface thinning and severely impacting the structural strength of the workpiece. A transverse thrust angle of 35 to 40° effectively offsets the longitudinal force, a crucial aspect of mold fabrication.

[0108] In summary, the present invention's double-tapered curvature pressing die, by segmenting and splicing multiple curvature regions into a die contact panel, can be used in conjunction with a hydraulic press to achieve the integrated pressing of double-tapered curvature workpieces. This makes such workpieces easier to manipulate and manufacture, improves product qualification rates, ensures workpiece precision and appearance quality, and guarantees the physical and chemical performance indicators of the steel used for the workpieces. It also increases the efficiency of integrated processing of special curvature workpieces and effectively avoids sheet metal scrapping. This invention effectively resolves various difficulties encountered in the prior art in the processing of special steel double-tapered, multi-curvature, gradient workpieces and has high industrial value.

Anyone skilled in the art may modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by one of ordinary skill in the art without departing from the spirit and technical principles disclosed herein are intended to be covered by the claims of the present invention.
