Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of sheet metal parts processing, and in particular to a method for processing a thin-walled part with a special-shaped structure. Background Art
[0002] The turbocharger is one of the most important core supporting systems of the diesel engine. The guide and heat shield parts have complex structures and are difficult to weld. As the covering parts of the bearing shell, they play an important role in heat insulation, guide and protection, which directly affects the performance and life of the turbocharger.
[0003] The heat shield (hereinafter referred to as the heat shield) is welded together by the heat shield body, welding block and positioning ring. The materials are all SUS321 austenitic stainless steel. Figure 1 The main heat insulation cover is trumpet-shaped, and the welding block is a special-shaped structure. As the part covering the bearing shell, the protruding special-shaped structure of the welding block is to avoid the oil return pipe structure of the bearing shell. The overall part is relatively large (see the size Figure 2 , large end diameter Φ612, small end diameter Φ210, height 232), welding is difficult, and it is a thin-walled part, the welding block position is difficult to process and the welding quality is poor.
[0004] When the welding block is welded to the main body of the heat insulation cover, the mating surface is an irregular curved surface, such as Figure 3 As shown, it is difficult to ensure the matching effect by manual sheet metal processing methods, and it is easy to form a large matching gap when welding with the insulation cover, which makes welding difficult, the weld is not beautiful, and the welding quality is poor.
[0005] If the welding effect adopts the method of manual sheet metal folding, from the processing effect point of view, it is not only difficult to operate, but also requires high skills of the operator, has poor appearance and produces angular edges, which makes welding difficult, the welding quality is poor, and the local stress concentration of the parts.
[0006] If a special tool is used to directly press the heat insulation cover of the main body of the part into a protruding whole (without a welding block structure), the protruding part of the part is large, which will cause the wall of this position to be thin after molding, the thickness uniformity of the part to be poor, the strength to be low, and the failure to meet the designed use conditions. Summary of the invention
[0007] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and provide a processing method for thin-walled parts with special-shaped structures, thereby reducing welding difficulty and improving welding quality.

[0012] S2, opening
[0013] Use an angle grinder or laser cutting machine to cut the heat insulation cover along the marked position to form an opening. The opening position should be smooth without edges or sharp corners.

[0018] S5. Welding
[0019] Overlap the processed welding block and the heat insulation cover body and fix them by spot welding. After observation, weld the overlapping position.
[0020] Preferably, the inner surface of the welding block positioning tool is used for positioning with the insulation cover body contour, and positioning legs are respectively provided at both ends of the bottom of the welding block positioning tool, and the two positioning legs are used for positioning with the reinforcing ribs on the large end surface of the insulation cover body.
[0021] Preferably, handles are installed on both sides of the welding block positioning tool.
[0022] Preferably, an inclined surface is provided on the inner side of the positioning leg of the welding block positioning tool, and the inclined surface is used for obliquely fitting and positioning with the outer side of the corresponding reinforcing rib.

The surface of the lower die is used to cooperate and position with the profile of the heat insulation cover body. The lower die is also provided with a positioning structure and a leveling structure.

[0041] A processing method for thin-walled parts with special-shaped structures requires tooling:
[0042] (1) Welding block positioning tool
[0043] This tooling uses the large end face reinforcement ribs of the heat insulation cover and the heat insulation cover body contour for positioning and fixing. The purpose is to accurately locate the welding position of the welding block on the main body of the guide heat insulation cover, laying the foundation for the subsequent flanging full circle position.
[0044] (2) Welding block pressing die
[0045] The welding block is a special-shaped structure. It is difficult to circle and calibrate the sheet metal manually, and the processing quality is unstable, making it difficult to meet the design requirements. Therefore, a welding block profiling die is designed. The tooling consists of a positioning plate, a fixing plate, an upper die, and a lower die. It has a simple structure and is easy to disassemble. The positioning plate is used to limit the welding block. In order to ensure the forming size of the welding block, considering its structure and the rebound deformation of the stainless steel material, the drawing requires an angle of 84° after forming. Finally, through repeated verification, it was found that the welding block can meet the design requirements after stamping when the angle of the stamping tooling die surface is 70°.
[0046] (3) Heat insulation cover body flanging round tooling
[0047] The heat insulation cover is fixed on the lower mold of the tooling by positioning and leveling through the reinforcing ribs and outer contour curve of the heat insulation cover itself. During the pressing process, the limit module of the upper mold first presses the heat insulation cover through the spring mechanism to prevent the part from being displaced during pressing, and then controls the upper mold to press slowly.
[0048] A processing method for thin-walled parts with special-shaped structures:
[0049] ① Marking: After the main part of the guide heat shield is processed, use the welding block positioning tool to mark the line. The tool is positioned using the reinforcing ribs on the large end surface of the heat shield body and the heat shield body contour line. Place the tool flat against the heat shield body and fix it, and use a marking needle to evenly mark a solid line along the inner hole wall of the positioning tool.
[0050] ② Opening: Use an angle grinder or laser cutting machine to cut the heat insulation cover along the marked position. The opening position should be smooth without edges or sharp corners.
[0051] ③ Flanging and rounding: Place the heat insulation cover on the flanging and rounding tooling, use the reinforcing ribs on the large end surface of the heat insulation cover and the heat insulation cover profile to position and fix it, use a hydraulic press to carry the tooling upper mold to press the flanging, and during the pressing process, the tooling upper mold fixing parts will first contact the heat insulation cover to fix it, so that the movement of the parts will not occur during the pressing process.
[0052] ④Welding block processing: Use welding blocks to flatten the sheet and place it in the welding block pressing mold. Use a hydraulic press to press and fix it for 5-10s to make it completely formed.
[0053] ⑤ Welding: Fix the processed welding block and the heat insulation cover by spot welding with an overlap of 10mm. This is to ensure that the welding position overlaps during full welding and improve the welding quality. After observation, weld the inner and outer circle overlap positions.
[0054] Finally, it should be noted that the above preferred embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail through the above preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that various changes can be made in form and details without departing from the scope defined by the claims of the present invention.
