[0036] The following describes embodiments of the present invention in detail. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended only to explain the present invention and are not to be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0037] Example 1
[0038] This embodiment provides a skin auxiliary stretching die for pressing a skin to be stretched, so that the skin to be stretched is stretched into a negative curvature hyperbolic skin.
[0039] like Figure 1 As shown, the skin auxiliary stretching die includes a first die 1, a second die 2, a spacer 3 and a pressing plate 4. The first die 1 and the second die 2 are arranged relative to each other in the vertical direction, and the skin to be stretched 5 can be arranged between the first die 1 and the second die 2, so that the first die 1 and the second die 2 can approach each other to press the skin to be stretched 5. Among them, the first die 1 is provided with a crimping protrusion 11 on the side facing the second die 2, and the second die 2 is provided with a crimping groove 21 on the side facing the first die 1. The crimping protrusion 11 can crimp the skin to be stretched 5 into the crimping groove 21, so that the skin to be stretched 5 forms a negative curvature hyperboloid skin after stretching, thereby realizing the molding of the product.
[0040] At the same time, the pads 3 include at least two, at least two of which are arranged on the side of the first die 1 away from the crimping protrusion 11, at least one of the two pads 3 is arranged opposite to the crimping protrusion 11 in the vertical direction, and the pressure plate 4 is arranged on the other side of the pad 3 away from the first die 1, so that after the pressure plate 4 is subjected to pressure, the pressure can be transmitted to the first die 1 through the pad 3, so that the first die 1 and the second die 2 can press the skin to be stretched 5, and since one of the pads 3 is arranged opposite to the crimping protrusion 11 in the vertical direction, the pressure can be accurately transmitted to the crimping protrusion 11, thereby avoiding the warping phenomenon of the skin to be stretched 5 during the stretching process, so that the negative curvature hyperbolic skin is formed in place at one time, avoiding rework and improving production efficiency.
[0041] Specifically, the extension direction of the spacer 3 is parallel to the extension direction of the crimping protrusion 11, so that the spacer 3 can transmit pressure to the entire crimping protrusion 11, preventing parts of the skin 5 to be stretched from not receiving concentrated pressure and thus warping after stretching. Optionally, the pressure plate 4 is a metal plate with a certain compressive strength, which can prevent the pressure plate 4 from deforming after being subjected to force, resulting in a change in the force transmission direction and affecting the one-time stretching and forming of the negative curvature hyperboloid skin.
[0042] Further, the outer surface of the crimping protrusion 11 comprises a middle surface 111 and first and second side surfaces 112 and 113 located on both sides of the middle surface 111, the first side surface 112 is located on the side close to the edge of the first pressing die 1, and one of the at least two pads 3 is arranged opposite to the middle surface 111 in the vertical direction, so that the pressure is concentrated on the center of the crimping protrusion 11, or one of the at least two pads 3 is arranged opposite to the first side surface 112 in the vertical direction, so that the pressure is concentrated on the side of the crimping protrusion close to the edge of the first pressing die 1. In this way, while ensuring that the to-be-stretched skin 5 will not have a reverse warping phenomenon after stretching, the positioning difficulty of the pads 3 when installed on the first pressing die 1 can also be reduced.
[0043] Further, the at least two pads 3 are symmetrically arranged relative to the middle position of the pressing plate 4, so that the center of gravity of the pressing plate 4 is located at the middle position between the two pads 3, thereby avoiding the influence of the weight of the pressing plate 4 itself on the accuracy of pressure transmission. In an embodiment, the skin auxiliary stretching die further comprises a counterweight, which can be arranged at the middle position of the pressing plate 4, so that the pressing force of the pressing plate 4 on the two pads 3 can be equal, so that both sides of the to-be-stretched skin 5 can be subjected to concentrated pressure, facilitating the slow and uniform stretching of the to-be-stretched skin 5. In another embodiment, the skin auxiliary stretching die further comprises a counterweight, which can be arranged on the pressing plate 4, and the counterweight is provided with at least two, and the at least two counterweights are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the at least two pads 3 in the vertical direction, so that by arranging the counterweights on the pressing plate 4 corresponding to the positions of the two pads 3, the pressing force of the pressing plate 4 on the two pads 3 can also be equal, so that both sides of the to-be-stretched skin 5 can be subjected to concentrated pressure, facilitating the slow and uniform stretching of the to-be-stretched skin 5.

[0048] arranging the pressing plate 4 on the at least two pads 3, and applying pressure to the pressing plate 4, while applying tension to both ends of the to-be-stretched skin 5.
[0049] The method for using the skin auxiliary stretching die is simple and convenient in use, the setting of the pressing plate 4 and the cushion block 3 can change the position of pressure transmission, and the pressure can be concentrated on the pressing protrusion 11, so that the phenomenon of reverse warping of the skin 5 to be stretched during the stretching process is avoided, the negative curvature hyperboloid skin is formed in place at one time, the rework is avoided, and the production efficiency is improved.
[0050] Further, the skin 5 to be stretched is arranged between the first pressing die 1 and the second pressing die 2, and the both ends of the skin 5 to be stretched are clamped by the stretching clamp, and the skin 5 to be stretched is moved, so that the negative curvature hyperboloid forming part of the skin 5 to be stretched is arranged opposite to the pressing protrusion 11 of the first pressing die 1 in the vertical direction, so that the forming precision of the negative curvature hyperboloid skin is improved.
[0051] Further, the pressing plate 4 is arranged on the at least two cushion blocks 3, and the pressing plate 4 is applied with pressure, and the position of the pressing plate 4 is adjusted, so that the at least two cushion blocks 3 are symmetrically arranged relative to the middle position of the pressing plate 4, so that the influence of the weight of the pressing plate 4 itself on the precision of pressure transmission is avoided, and the middle position of the pressing plate 4 is applied with pressure, or the positions corresponding to the at least two cushion blocks 3 of the pressing plate 4 are applied with pressure of the same size, so that the pressure applied by the pressing plate 4 to the two cushion blocks 3 is equal, and the both sides of the skin 5 to be stretched can be applied with concentrated pressure, so that the skin 5 to be stretched is stretched slowly and uniformly.
