[0029] The present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments. The following embodiments will help those skilled in the art to further understand the present invention, but do not limit the present invention in any form. It should be noted that those of ordinary skill in the art can make several changes and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention. These all belong to the protection scope of the present invention.

[0030] Embodiment 1

[0031] This embodiment provides a roll punching forming die for changing the flow mode of a sheet, including a first die set 1, a second die set 2, a spacing adjustment assembly 3, and an auxiliary die set 4. The first die set 1 and the second die set 2 are arranged in an upper and lower matching manner. The first die set 1 is mainly composed of a plurality of independent first dies 11, and the shapes of the first dies 11 in the same first die set 1 are the same. The shape of the first die 11 is a convex shape, and the protruding end part thereof is a punch 111. The second die set 2 is mainly composed of a plurality of independent second dies 21, and the shapes of the second dies in the same second die set 2 are the same. A forming groove 211 is provided on the end face of the second die 21. The forming groove 211 is adapted to be provided with parameters such as the shape and size of the punch 111, and the sheet is driven to be formed through the cooperation of the forming groove 211 and the punch 111.

[0032] The spacing adjustment assembly 3 is used to adjust the spacing between the auxiliary die set 4 and the first die set 1. The spacing adjustment assembly 3 includes a connecting member 31 and a spacer 32, and the spacer 32 is sleeved on the connecting member 31. In some embodiments, a relative sliding sleeving method of the connecting member 31 and the spacer 32 is adopted. In some embodiments, the connecting member 31 is a screw rod, and the spacer 32 is a sleeve. Among them, a profile surface adapted to the spacer 32 of the sleeve structure is provided in the middle of the connecting member 31 of the screw rod structure. The auxiliary die set 4 is mainly composed of a plurality of pairs of first auxiliary dies 41 and second auxiliary dies 42 arranged in pairs. The number of pairs of the first auxiliary dies 41 and the second auxiliary dies 42 arranged in pairs is the same as the number of groups of the first dies 11. Each pair of the first auxiliary dies 41 and the second auxiliary dies 42 are symmetrically connected to the opposite sides of the first die 11 through the spacing adjustment assembly 3. The connecting member 31 and the spacer 32 used for connecting the first auxiliary die 41 and the first die 11 are denoted as the first connecting member 311 and the first spacer 321. The connecting member 31 and the spacer 32 used for connecting the second auxiliary die 42 and the first die 11 are denoted as the second connecting member 312 and the second spacer 321.

[0033] One end of the first connecting member 311 of the screw structure sequentially passes through the first auxiliary mold 41 and the first spacer 321 and is tightly connected to one side surface of the first mold 11 by an interference fit or a threaded connection. A nut 5 is threadedly connected to the other end of the first connecting member 311. By screwing the nut 5, the first spacer 321 is clamped between the first auxiliary mold 41 and the first mold 11. One end of the second connecting member 312 of the screw structure sequentially passes through the second auxiliary mold 42 and the second spacer 321 and is tightly connected to the other side surface of the first mold 11 by an interference fit or a threaded connection. A nut 5 is threadedly connected to the other end of the second connecting member 312. By screwing the nut 5, the second spacer 322 is clamped between the second auxiliary mold 42 and the first mold 11. In some embodiments, after the first auxiliary mold 41 and the second auxiliary mold 42 are connected to opposite side surfaces of the first mold 11, the upper end surfaces of the first auxiliary mold 41, the first mold 11, and the second auxiliary mold 42 are substantially flush, and the lower end surfaces of the three can be kept substantially flush or adjusted to be of different heights according to actual situations.

[0034] In this embodiment, by connecting the first auxiliary mold 41 and the second auxiliary mold 42 to opposite sides of the first mold 11 respectively, when the sheet is roll-punched and formed by the cooperation of the punch 11 and the forming groove 21, the first auxiliary mold 41 and the second auxiliary mold 42 are respectively used to contact and limit the upward warping of the sheet parts on both sides of the punch 11, thereby changing the V-shaped structure presented by the sheet during the roll-punching process into a wavy shape and changing the flow mode of the sheet during the forming process. That is, in this embodiment, by arranging auxiliary molds that contact the sheet and apply corresponding binding forces to the sheet during the forming process on both sides of the first mold, the stress influence of the subsequent forming process on the already formed structure in the previous process is weakened, and the forming accuracy is improved.

[0035] In the above embodiments, the axial lengths of the first spacer 321 and the second spacer 322 of the sleeve structure may be equal or unequal. The axial length L1 of the first spacer 321 and the axial length L2 of the second spacer 322 located on both sides of the first mold 11 are mainly adapted according to the final roll-punched forming shape of the sheet.

[0036] Embodiment 2

[0037] This Embodiment 2 is a variant formed on the basis of Embodiment 1. By changing the structural characteristics of the spacer, that is, the spacer is set as an elastic member, the axial length of the spacer can be changed by the elastic force of the elastic member, which is convenient to operate and reduces costs. Specifically:

[0038] The spacer 32 is an elastic structure. In some embodiments, the spacer 32 is a sleeve structure made of rubber material. In some embodiments, the spacer 32 is a spring structure. In some embodiments, the first spacer 321 and the second spacer 322 are elastic structures made of the same material, such as both being rubber sleeves or both being springs. In some embodiments, the first spacer 321 and the second spacer 322 are elastic structures made of different materials, such as the first spacer 321 being a rubber sleeve and the second spacer 322 being a spring.

[0039] Embodiment 3

[0040] This Embodiment 3 is formed on the basis of Embodiment 1 or Embodiment 2. By changing the deformation of the auxiliary mold structure, the constraint conditions of the auxiliary mold on the plate are changed, and the forming accuracy of the plate is improved. Specifically:

[0041] In some embodiments, a first crimping portion 411 with a flat inclined surface structure is formed on the side of the first auxiliary mold 41 adjacent to the first mold 11 by cutting off the bottom corner. When the inclined first crimping portion 411 contacts the plate, it can be a line contact at the bottom or a surface contact. In some other embodiments, a first crimping portion 411 with a factory-shaped structure is formed on one side of the first auxiliary mold 41 adjacent to the first mold by removing materials. The contact between the factory-shaped first crimping portion 411 and the plate can be the upper and lower two edges, so as to deform the plate with a larger bending angle.

[0042] In some embodiments, the second auxiliary mold 42 forms a second crimping portion 421 with a flat inclined surface or a factory-shaped structure in the same manner as the first auxiliary mold 41 to meet the requirements of the deformation of the plate.

[0043] In the description of the present application, it should be understood that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc. is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings. It is only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation to the present application.

[0044] The specific embodiments of the present invention have been described above. It should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the above specific embodiments, and those skilled in the art can make various changes or modifications within the scope of the claims, which does not affect the essence of the present invention. Without conflict, the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined arbitrarily.
