AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing roll-formed profiles, while improving strength, are difficult to meet the lightweight requirements of automobiles. They are also difficult to process, prone to deviations and waste, require high-end equipment, and consume a lot of energy.

Method used

The structure adopts a closed cavity structure composed of a welded combination of an enclosure and an insert. Through an inside-out processing sequence, the insert is formed first, then the enclosure is formed, and the two are welded together to form a closed profile. The open end of the insert extends into the interior of the enclosure and is welded. The support arm is connected to the rear side wall to form a multi-cavity structure.

Benefits of technology

Improve the strength and rigidity of profiles, reduce weight, reduce processing difficulty and equipment footprint, reduce material and energy consumption, enhance the bending resistance and impact force dispersion of profiles, and adapt to the support structure requirements of different usage locations.

Abstract

The present invention provides a high-strength lightweight roll-formed profile, which is a closed cavity body with three closed cavities formed by welding and combining an enclosing member and an embedding member; the enclosing member is a rectangular cavity with an opening on one side formed by symmetrically bending a second plate; the embedding member is a "C" - shaped bending member formed by symmetrically bending a first plate. The present invention has three closed cavities, which can effectively improve the strength, rigidity and bending resistance of the material, and can also quickly transfer and buffer forces when being impacted. When used as an automobile anti-collision beam or a side beam of a battery case, it can ensure the safety of the automobile. The present invention also provides a processing method and application of the profile. By gradually forming and parallel processing in an inside-out manner, the number of forming groups is small, the equipment investment is small, and the floor space is small; the forming process is simple, there is no forming blind angle, and each bending angle can be controlled; the forming accuracy of the product parts is high, the cumulative error is small, and the application is wide.
