Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of metal forging, and in particular to a two-pass bending blank making process suitable for deep U-shaped metal arms. Background Art

[0002] In the process of metal forging, products with complex structures usually require corresponding blank making processes, such as drawing, upsetting, bending, flattening, etc. The blank making process is to maximize the shape and structure of the original material before forging to be similar to the shape and structure of the product, so as to improve material utilization and improve the fullness and success rate of the forging process.

[0003] Forging of aluminum alloy wishbone parts for automobile chassis, especially forgings with multiple bends and deep U-shaped structures, a bending process is usually required during the billet making process.

[0004] Because for aluminum alloy fork arms, the original forging materials are mostly aluminum alloy extruded round bars, and due to the particularity of aluminum alloy materials, there may be some problems in performing deep U-shaped arm bending on ordinary bending machines. For example, deformation is prone to occur during the bending process when multiple bends and deep U-shaped structures are performed at the same time. Because the overall required bending angle is large, and during the bending process, the stress is mainly concentrated at the bending point, which may cause local excessive deformation or cracks. The main body deformation during the bending process is not uniform, which can easily lead to excessive deviation of the product size after bending.

[0005] Although the existing bending machine molds can meet the bending requirements, they are usually achieved by selecting special bending equipment and designing special bending molds. For example, local support auxiliary devices are added to the openings on both sides of the lower mold, usually a pair of rollers or bearings. The rollers or bearings can convert the friction between the blank and the mold from sliding friction to rolling friction, reducing friction and stress during the deformation process, and facilitating the bending of forgings with multiple bending sections and deep U-shaped arms.

[0006] At the same time, because auxiliary devices such as rollers or bearings are added to the mold, the average life of the entire mold depends on the life of the auxiliary devices or the connection mechanism between the auxiliary devices and the mold, which greatly reduces the life of the entire mold. Especially for the metal forging industry, the metal surface temperature is usually four or five hundred degrees during the bending process, and auxiliary mechanisms such as rollers or bearings are subjected to reciprocating alternating stress, and fatigue life will also affect the use of the entire mold.

[0007] In summary, the existing bending machines have poor bending effects and are prone to deformation when performing bending with multiple bending sections and deep U-shaped structures. At the same time, the molds that select special bending equipment and design special bending molds to add local support devices such as rollers or bearings have a low mold life when performing bending forming.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0046] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0047] like Figure 8As shown, this embodiment provides a two-pass bending blank making process suitable for deep U-shaped metal arms, including the following specific steps:

[0048] Step 100, heating the cylindrical bar and the bending die to a set temperature, wherein the bending die includes a first-pass bending die and a second-pass bending die;

[0049] Step 200, the bending positions are determined in sequence according to the target bending structure of the deep U-shaped metal arm, and then the bending is performed in sequence, specifically:

[0050] The heated aluminum alloy cylindrical bar is bent once at the portions near the two ends by a secondary bending die to obtain a partially bent blank;

[0051] The middle part of the blank that has been bent once is then bent twice using a second-pass bending die to obtain a second-pass bent blank that is in a deep U shape.

[0052] This embodiment solves the problem of unstable bending performance of deep U-shaped metal arms. By setting a two-pass bending process and designing a two-pass bending mold, it can achieve large-angle bending of long arm bars, while ensuring the bending quality, reducing dependence on special bending equipment, and reducing the occurrence of blank jamming during the bending process.

[0053] In this embodiment, by setting two bending passes on the same fixed plate, the original blank and the once-bent blank can be simultaneously bent once and twice in a progressive manner, thereby shortening the process time and improving production efficiency.

[0054] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, this embodiment provides a two-pass bending mold, including an upper fixed plate 10 and a lower fixed plate 20, a first-pass bending upper mold 30 and a second-pass bending upper mold 40 are arranged side by side on the lower surface of the upper fixed plate 10, and a first-pass bending lower mold 50 and a second-pass bending lower mold 60 are arranged side by side on the upper surface of the lower fixed plate 20.

[0055] A primary blank cavity 51 is provided on the one-stage bending lower die 50, and the primary blank cavity 51 is used to perform a primary bending forming on the two end portions of the blank when the one-stage bending upper die 30 and the primary blank cavity 51 are molded together;

[0056] A secondary blank cavity 61 is provided on the second-pass bending lower die 60 , and the secondary blank cavity 61 is used to perform secondary bending forming on the middle of the blank when the second-pass bending upper die 40 and the secondary blank cavity 61 are clamped.

[0057] Among them, the upper fixing plate and the lower fixing plate are arranged on the press, and are respectively connected with the fixing seat and the pressing structure of the press, so that the mold is closed by the press.

[0058] by Figure 7 The numbers in the figure are as follows: P101-D=50mm x L=600mm original cylindrical bar as an example; P102-the blank obtained after the first bending pass; P103-the blank obtained after the second bending pass.

[0059] During the specific operation of this embodiment: the original extruded aluminum alloy cylindrical bar P101 is heated to a certain temperature, at which the aluminum alloy is suitable for forging and has sufficiently high process plasticity; the original cylindrical bar is placed on the mold for a bending process; the first bending process is performed, and a primary billet cavity 51 is provided on the primary bending lower die 50, and the primary billet cavity 51 is used to perform a primary bending forming on the two end portions close to the billet when the primary bending upper die 30 is molded with the primary billet cavity 51, so as to obtain a billet with local bending at both ends, which is called a primary bending billet; after the first bending process is completed, a second bending process is performed to obtain a secondary bending billet, and a secondary billet cavity 61 is provided on the second bending lower die 60, and the secondary billet cavity 61 is used to perform a secondary bending forming on the middle of the billet when the second bending upper die 40 is molded with the secondary billet cavity 61, i.e., a deep U-shaped arm product structure billet.

[0060] That is, the middle section of the final blank formed by bending of the mold in this embodiment has a larger curvature or depth compared with the ends of the formed blank, while both sides of the middle section have small curvature bends.

[0061] In particular, two heating holes are set on the upper die of the primary bending and two heating holes are set on the lower die of the primary bending to heat the mold. Specifically, the mold electric heating tube is placed in the hole to make the mold temperature reach 200-300℃. At this temperature, the surface and internal structure of the bent blank are denser.

[0062] The primary bending cavity 53 in this embodiment is aimed at the bending forming of a specific target blank, that is, Figure 7 Of course, if the target blank has an asymmetrical bending structure, it is still necessary to perform a single bending forming according to the bending parts at both ends of the bending structure with a larger depth and curvature (such as a deep U-shaped structure part). In other words, this embodiment divides the order of single bending and second bending based on the bending degree of the target blank.

[0063] To this end, the primary blank cavity 51 in this embodiment includes a first intermediate cavity 52 , and primary bending cavities 53 are provided at both ends of the first intermediate cavity 52 , and the primary bending cavities 53 located at both ends of the first intermediate cavity 52 are centrally symmetrical.

[0064] The primary bending cavity 53 performs a primary bending on the two end portions close to the blank when the secondary bending upper die 30 and the primary blank cavity 51 are molded together.

[0065] The first intermediate cavity 52 is matched and symmetrical with the bottom surface of the first bending upper die 30. In order to release the stress of the blank generated during the first bending process, a concave arc structure to a certain extent can be set in the middle of the first intermediate cavity 52, such as Figure 3 As shown, further, the middle part of the blank is not bent, so a symmetrical concave arc structure is also provided in the middle of the bottom surface of the secondary bending upper die 30. In this way, the stress generated by the bending at both ends of the blank is released in the middle part of the blank.

[0066] The end of the primary bending cavity 53 is away from the first intermediate cavity 52 and extends horizontally toward the side of the secondary bending lower die 50 to form a positioning groove 54. The positioning groove 54 can also extend to the end surface of the secondary bending lower die 50 to form an open mouth or incompletely extend to form a guard edge. The positioning groove 54 is used to position the end of the blank, so that the blank can maintain accurate positioning during the primary bending and secondary bending processes.

[0067] Calibration holes 70 are provided on both sides of the single-pass bending upper mold 30, the single-pass bending lower mold 50, the second-pass bending upper mold 40, and the second-pass bending lower mold 60, and the calibration holes 70 located on the same side of the single-pass bending upper mold 30 and the single-pass bending lower mold 50, the second-pass bending upper mold 40, and the second-pass bending lower mold 60 are collinear in the vertical direction.

[0068] In this embodiment, it can be arranged according to the actual structure of the mold. The calibration hole 70 can be used to lock the upper mold and the lower mold of the mold, and the single-pass bending upper mold 30 and the second-pass bending upper mold 40 as well as the single-pass bending lower mold 50 and the second-pass bending lower mold 60 can be connected by correspondingly arranging the calibration holes 70 on the single-pass bending upper mold 30 and the second-pass bending upper mold 40. Specifically, the calibration hole 70 can be a threaded hole, which is connected by installing a screw in the threaded hole, and then the single-pass bending upper mold 30 and the second-pass bending upper mold 40 as well as the single-pass bending lower mold 50 and the second-pass bending lower mold 60 can be locked by rotating the screw.

[0069] The secondary blank cavity 61 includes a second intermediate cavity 62, and a primary bending cavity 53 is set at both ends of the second intermediate cavity 62. During the second bending process, it is still necessary to use the primary bending cavity 53 to reshape and position the blank after the first bending during the second bending process. The advantage is that if only a larger depth bending or a deep U-shaped structure bending is performed on the middle part of the blank during the second bending process, the bending process will inevitably affect the structure that has been bent into shape by the first bending.

[0070] To this end, the second-pass bending upper mold 40 in this embodiment includes an upper mold body 41, and the bottom of the upper mold body 41 is configured to have a curved surface structure that cooperates with the second intermediate cavity 62. The curved surface structure cooperates with the second intermediate cavity 62 to perform secondary bending on the middle of the blank.

[0071] Since the deformation of the blank is large during the second bending process, the process involves the deformation of the overall structure of the blank and the change of the positions of the two sections of the blank.

[0072] To this end, in order to cooperate with the deformation of the two ends of the blank during the second bending process, in this embodiment, positioning blocks 42 are provided at both ends of the upper mold body 41, and an inclined surface 43 is provided at the bottom of the positioning block 42, and a connecting block 44 is provided on the top of the positioning block 42. One end of the connecting block 44 is rotatably connected to the upper mold body 41 through a rotating shaft 45. An elastic angle piece 46 is provided on the side of the upper mold body 41, and one side of the elastic angle piece 46 is connected to the positioning block 42.

[0073] The elastic corner piece 46 in this embodiment is specifically a metal spring piece with memory metal, specifically a rectangular structure, wherein one side of the metal spring piece is connected to the bottom of the connection seat 13, and the other side is connected to the side of the upper mold body 41, and both can be designed to be detachably connected. Therefore, the elastic corner piece 46 can be used as a consumable part and can be replaced without affecting the performance of the mold itself.

[0074] Among them, the inclined surface 43 is used to match the end surface of the blank, and rotates around the rotating shaft 45 when the upper part of the connecting block 44 is subjected to downward pressure. The elastic angle piece 46 supports the positioning block 42 close to the upper mold body 41, and when the downward pressure disappears, the elastic angle piece 46 restores the positioning block 42 to its original position.

[0075] A guide groove 47 is provided in the middle of the inclined surface 43 . The guide groove 47 is along the length direction of the inclined surface 43 , and the guide groove 47 has the same structure as the primary bending cavity 53 .

[0076] A pressure plate 11 is arranged above the upper fixed plate 10, and the bottom of the pressure plate 11 cooperates with the upper surface of the upper fixed plate 10. A pressure main shaft 12 is arranged in the middle of the pressure plate 11, and a connecting seat 13 is installed on the pressure main shaft 12. A plurality of pressure relief devices 80 are arranged on the connecting seat 13.

[0077] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a pressure relief device 80 is provided including an electromagnetic drive part 81 and a first guide rod 82, a through hole 83 matching the first guide rod 82 is provided on the pressure plate 11, a second guide rod 84 is provided above the through hole 83, an electromagnet is provided on the top of the second guide rod 84, the bottom of the second guide rod 84 is connected to the third guide rod 85, a guide hole 86 matching the third guide rod 85 is provided axially of the first guide rod 86, and a pressure spring 87 is mounted on the rod body of the third guide rod 85.

[0078] A first wedge 88 is disposed at the bottom of the second guide rod 17 on both sides of the upper die body 41, and a countersunk hole 89 is disposed on the connecting block 44 on both sides of the upper die body 41. A second wedge 88 is disposed in the countersunk hole 89 to match the first wedge 88. The first wedge 88 and the second wedge constitute a wedge surface transmission pair.

[0079] The wedge surface transmission pair composed of the first wedge-shaped body 88 and the second wedge-shaped body drives the connecting block 44 to rotate around the rotating shaft 45 .

[0080] Before the pressure plate 11 contacts the upper fixed plate 10 , the electromagnetic driving part 81 is used to linearly increase the force on the electromagnet, so that the second guide rod 84 drives the first guide rod 82 to contact the upper fixed plate 10 through the third guide rod 85 under the action of the pressure spring 87 .

[0081] The above embodiments are only exemplary embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. The protection scope of the present application is defined by the claims. Those skilled in the art may make various modifications or equivalent substitutions to the present application within the essence and protection scope of the present application, and such modifications or equivalent substitutions shall also be deemed to fall within the protection scope of the present application.
