Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of metal forging, and particularly discloses a forming device and method for metal forging. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the high-end manufacturing field of aerospace, automobile parts and the like, aluminum alloy has become the core raw material of deep hole structural parts (such as engine cylinder sleeve, hydraulic valve sleeve and the like) due to its characteristics of low density, high strength and corrosion resistance. Such aluminum alloy deep hole forged parts usually require high hole diameter precision, and need to be formed by a special forging die and a core rod in cooperation, that is, the outer wall shape of the forged part is limited by the cavity of the lower die, and the core rod is inserted into the inside of the blank to extrude the deep hole structure, so that the deep hole forged part meeting the size requirements is finally obtained. With the rapid increase in demand for aluminum alloy deep hole parts in high-end equipment, the automation and refinement of the forging process are required to be continuously improved, and the lubrication effect of the core rod and the lower die directly affects the forming quality and production efficiency of the forged part, and becomes a key link restricting the process upgrading.

[0003] In the current aluminum alloy deep hole forging process, the lubrication link of the core rod and the lower die has significant technical pain points. On the one hand, the outer wall of the core rod is easy to adhere to the metal scraps and oxide skin of the aluminum alloy blank in the high-temperature forging environment. If not cleaned in time, it will not only scratch the inner wall of the deep hole of the forged part, but also cause the core rod to stick to the forged part, which needs to be stopped and disassembled in severe cases, greatly reducing the production efficiency. On the other hand, in order to avoid sticking, the outer wall of the core rod and the inner wall of the lower die need to be sprayed with special silicon-based lubricating liquid before each forging. However, the existing operation mode has obvious defects. The lubricating liquid in the internal cavity of the lower die is very inconvenient to apply, and it is difficult for manual operation to achieve uniform coverage inside the cavity. The lubrication of the outer wall of the core rod is even more dependent on manual operation with a spray gun or a cloth, which not only has low efficiency, but also is affected by the experience of the operator, resulting in uneven thickness of the lubricating liquid (local over-thickness can easily cause bubbles in the forged part, and under-thickness cannot achieve the anti-sticking effect). At the same time, manual operation also has the safety hazard of high-temperature scalding, which is difficult to adapt to the production demand of large scale and automation. SUMMARY

[0016] S3: The outer wall of the mandrel is cleaned and lubricating liquid is sprayed through the cleaning mechanism, and the inner wall of the lower die mechanism is sprayed with lubricating liquid through the spraying mechanism.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] Through the cleaning mechanism and the spraying mechanism, compared with the traditional manual manual smearing of lubricating liquid on the outer wall of the mandrel and the manual smearing in the cavity of the lower die, not only the manual intervention link is greatly reduced, but also the risk of scalding caused by the contact between the operator and the high-temperature mandrel and the die is avoided, and the problems of uneven lubrication and incomplete cleaning caused by manual operation are reduced, which adapts to the demand of large-scale production and significantly improves the production efficiency.

[0041] S1: by putting the preheated forging into the lower die mechanism, the forging is located inside the lower die mechanism, the lower pressing plate 6 is driven by the hydraulic cylinder 5 to slide outside the outer wall of the plurality of supporting columns 3, the lower pressing plate 6 drives the mandrel 7 to move downward when pressing downward, the lower end of the mandrel 7 is inserted into the lower die mechanism, and the mandrel 7 extrudes and forges the forging in the lower die mechanism.

[0042] S2: After the forging is completed, the lower plate 6 and the mandrel 7 are moved upward by the hydraulic cylinder 5, so that the mandrel 7 is away from the forged piece. When the mandrel 7 moves to the uppermost position, the second cylinder 20 pushes the liquid storage tank 21, the frame 22, the spraying mechanism and the cleaning mechanism to move downward below the mandrel 7.
