[0036] In order to help those skilled in the art to accurately understand the subject matter for which protection is sought in the present application, the specific implementation of the present application is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0037] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of an embodiment of a body covering member involved in the present application, in which the body covering member is a side panel 10. The side panel 10 has two openings 12, namely a first door opening 14 located on the right side and a second door opening 16 located on the left side. The side panel 10 is formed into the first door opening 14 and the second door opening 16 by the stamping die involved in the present application. For any of the door openings, there is a corresponding pair of cutters that cooperate with each other to punch out the raw material to form a door opening of a target shape. The shape of the cutter conforms to the shape of the door opening, and each of the pair of cutters is composed of multiple cutter blocks to piece together an overall contour that conforms to the complex shape of the door opening. The cutter is arranged in a blanking die component not shown. During the stamping process, parts of the raw material are cut and separated by the cutter to form a door opening.
[0038] Figure 2 It is a schematic diagram of a tool used for the first door opening and for punching the first door opening. The tool is referred to as a tool block assembly 20 here, which includes a plurality of tool blocks 22. The tool block 22 is also referred to as an "insert". In the illustrated embodiment, the tool block assembly 20 includes six tool blocks. These tool blocks have cutting edges 24 at their edges, and they are arranged so that the combined contour of the cutting edges corresponds to the shape of the first door opening. The shape of the door opening is complex, with both arc sections 15 and straight sections 17. Corresponding to these sections of different geometric shapes, there are tool blocks with arc cutting edges and tool blocks with straight cutting edges.
[0039] Although the blade block with an arc-shaped blade corresponds to the arc-shaped section of the door opening, and the blade block with a straight blade corresponds to the straight section of the door opening, according to the conception of the present application, the arrangement of the blade blocks is such that the blade blocks are not completely consistent with the sections.
[0040] Figure 3An embodiment of knife block arrangement. The shape of the door opening includes an arc segment 26 and other segments 28 different from the arc segment 26. The knife block includes a first knife block 30 corresponding to the arc segment 26 and a second knife block 32 corresponding to the other segments 28. In the illustrated embodiment, the second knife block 32 has two pieces, which are arranged on both sides of the first knife block 30. In other embodiments, the second knife block can be arranged only on one side of the first knife block 30, and the other knife blocks are arranged on the other side of the first knife block 30. There is a critical point between the arc segment 28 and the other segments 28, and the position of the critical point is the dividing position 34. There is a slit 36 between the first knife block 30 and the second knife block 32. The slit 36 is staggered from the dividing position 34. In the illustrated embodiment, the other segments 28 are straight segments, and correspondingly, the second knife block 32 has a straight blade. The tangent point 38 where the arc segment and the straight segment are connected is staggered from the slit 36 between the first knife block 30 and the second knife block 32. In one embodiment, such offset distance d is at least 5 mm. Figure 4 For similar Figure 3 Another embodiment of the blade block arrangement. Similar components are indicated by the same reference numerals. The split 36 is staggered from the dividing position 34.
[0041] In one embodiment, if Figure 5 In the embodiment shown, one arc section 54 corresponds to one blade block 56. Only one blade block is used in the corner area of the door opening, so that the bright band of the formed product in this area has consistency.
[0042] Back to Figure 2 In the illustrated embodiment, the door opening includes a plurality of arc segments 15 and a plurality of straight segments 17 connecting adjacent arc segments 15. The curvatures of these arc segments 15 may be the same or different. The number of arc segments 15 corresponds to the number of arc-shaped blade blocks. In the illustrated embodiment, there are two arc segments 15 and two straight segments 17, and each arc segment 15 corresponds to one blade block. Each straight segment 17 corresponds to two blade blocks.
[0043] exist Figure 6 In the illustrated embodiment, the opening shape includes a first arc segment 98 and a second arc segment 100, and the first arc segment 98 and the second arc segment 100 are connected by a first straight segment 99, and the boundary position between the segments is circled in black in the figure. The first arc segment 98 and the second arc segment 100 are each corresponding to a knife block 106, 108, and there are no multiple knife blocks spliced in the first arc segment 98, and there are no multiple knife blocks spliced in the second arc segment 100. The arc segment can be an arc shape. The first straight segment 99 is corresponding to a knife block 107, and the seam between the knife block 107 and the two adjacent knife blocks 106, 108 follows the above-mentioned principle of "the seam and the boundary position are staggered".
[0044] In yet another embodiment, Figure 7 In the illustrated embodiment, the third arc segment 102 and the fourth arc segment 104 are adjacent to each other, that is, they are combined into a continuous arc corner, and the third arc segment 103 extends to the fourth arc segment 104 via a shorter transition segment 103. The transition segment 103 is a straight segment. Two blade blocks are provided corresponding to such a continuous arc corner, wherein the third blade block 110 corresponds to the third arc segment 102, and the fourth blade block 112 corresponds to the fourth arc segment 104, and the split 113 between the third blade block 110 and the fourth blade block 112 is located in the middle of the transition segment 103. The arc segment can be in the shape of a circular arc. For the sake of clarity, Figure 7 The center dividing line is circled in red.

Taking the second door opening 16 in the figure as an example, the upper cutter block assembly includes a first upper cutter block 74, a second upper cutter block 75, a third upper cutter block 76, a fourth upper cutter block 77, a fifth upper cutter block 78, and a sixth upper cutter block 79. The lower cutter block assembly includes a first lower cutter block 86, a second lower cutter block 87, a third lower cutter block 88, a fourth lower cutter block 89, a fifth lower cutter block 90, and a sixth lower cutter block 91. The first upper blade block 74 and the first lower blade block 86 basically correspond to the same section of the second door opening 16, and the second upper blade block 75 and the second lower blade block 87 basically correspond to another section of the second door opening 16... The corresponding relationship between the upper blade blocks and the lower blade blocks is analogous and will not be elaborated here. The arrangement relationship between the upper blade blocks and the lower blade blocks is that the slit 82 between the first upper blade block 74 and the second upper blade block 75 is staggered with the slit 84 between the first lower blade block 86 and the second lower blade block 87. That is to say, in the illustrated embodiment, the slit between any two adjacent upper blade blocks is staggered with the slit between the corresponding two adjacent lower blade blocks. In one embodiment, the staggered distance d1 between the upper and lower slits is at least 5 mm.
