[0012] As a further improvement of the present utility model, the second shearing component further includes a rubber pad. The rubber pad is arranged in the cavity between the knockout block and the top surface of the lower die base.
[0013] As a further improvement of the present utility model, the first cutting component includes a cutting punch, a cutting die, a second blank holding block and a second floating pull rod.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution provided by the utility model has the following advantages and effects:
[0017] 1. In this application, we use the collaborative work of the first shearing component and the second shearing component to complete the trimming process 1. Subsequently, the first cutting component and the second cutting component cooperate with each other to realize the pipe cutting process 2. Compared with the prior art, this application has significantly optimized the stamping process. The production process that originally required 6 sets of molds and 6 machines and hydraulic presses to complete, after our optimization, eliminated redundant processes such as trimming, flanging, punching, and flanging, and merged the two core processes of trimming and pipe cutting into the same set of mold frames, and only one rotary cutting machine is needed to complete it. This optimization not only improves production efficiency, but also saves time, equipment and labor costs.
[0018] 2. In this application, in order to ensure the accuracy of the total height dimension, an upper limit column is set on the bottom surface of the upper die seat, and a lower limit column is set on the bottom surface of the lower die seat. In the working state, the two will conflict with each other, thereby effectively limiting the total height dimension. Subsequently, the lower worktable of the press will drive the entire lower die assembly to rotate to cut off the excess waste of the part, completing process 1. When the part enters process 2 after trimming, the press will apply downward pressure while its lower worktable will drive the entire lower die part to rotate again, further cutting off the excess waste of the small pipe mouth of the part, thereby completing process 2. This process ensures that the parts ultimately meet the design size requirements. The design of this mold not only simplifies the operating process, but also significantly reduces the number of stamping equipment required and the scale of operators, thereby effectively improving production capacity.

[0034] Embodiment:
[0035] A processing die for an exhaust system cone, including a press. The press includes an upper workbench and a lower workbench. An upper die assembly 10 is provided at the bottom of the upper workbench, and a lower die assembly 20 corresponding to the upper die assembly 10 is provided at the top of the lower workbench, and the lower die assembly 20 is rotatably connected to the lower workbench;
[0036] The upper die assembly 10 includes an upper die base 110. A first shearing part 120 and a first cutting part 130 are provided on the bottom surface of the upper die base 110. The lower die assembly 20 includes a lower die base 210. A second shearing part 220 and a second cutting part 230 are provided on the top surface of the lower die base 210. The first shearing part 120 and the first cutting part 130 are vertically aligned with the second shearing part 220 and the second cutting part 230 respectively.
[0037] It should be noted that when the press starts working, the relative position between the upper workbench and the lower workbench will be adjusted according to the preset stroke to ensure that the upper die assembly 10 and the lower die assembly 20 can be accurately aligned. During this process, since the lower die assembly 20 is rotatably connected to the lower workbench, this design allows the lower die assembly 20 to be finely adjusted during the processing to better adapt to exhaust system cones of different shapes and sizes. This flexibility greatly improves the versatility and adaptability of the die, enabling the same set of dies to process more types of products and reducing the production cost.
[0038] Specifically, the whole die is divided into a trimming process 1 and a cutting pipe orifice process 2. The two processes are designed to share the first shearing component 120 and the second cutting component 230 provided on the bottom surface of the upper die base 110, and the second shearing component 220 and the second cutting component 230 provided on the top surface of the lower die base 210. These components cooperate with the connecting component 40. When working, the press presses down to press the part onto the second shearing component 220, and the total height dimension is limited by the limiting component 30. Then, the lower workbench of the press drives the entire lower die part to rotate to cut off the excess waste of the part, completing the work of process 1. When the part after trimming is placed into process 2 and the press presses down, the part is pressed onto the second cutting component 230, and the lower workbench of the press drives the entire lower die part to rotate to cut off the excess waste of the small pipe orifice of the part, completing the work of process 2, so that the part finally meets the design dimension requirements. It reduces the number of stamping equipment occupied and the number of operators, and improves the production capacity.
[0039] Combined with the attached drawings of the specification Figures 1 - 7 As shown, a limiting component 30 is further provided between the upper die assembly 10 and the lower die assembly 20. The limiting component 30 includes a fixed column 310, an upper limiting column 320, and a lower limiting column 330. The fixed column 310 is provided on the bottom surface of the upper die base 110, the upper limiting column 320 is provided on the bottom surface of the fixed column 310, and the lower limiting column 330 is provided on the top surface of the lower die base 210 and is vertically aligned with the upper limiting column 320.
[0040] It is explained that the limiting component 30 can ensure the precise alignment of the upper die assembly 10 and the lower die assembly 20 during the closing and opening processes, and at the same time protect the die assembly from being damaged by excessive mechanical stress. Among them, the fixed column 310 serves as the basis of the entire limiting component 30, and it is firmly installed on the bottom surface of the upper die base 110, providing stable support for the upper limiting column 320. When the die is closed, the fixed column 310 not only ensures the overall stability of the upper die base 110, but also enables the upper limiting column 320 to accurately dock with the lower limiting column 330. Secondly, the upper limiting column 320 is designed to contact the lower limiting column 330 when the die is closed, thereby restricting the further downward movement of the upper die assembly 10. This design avoids the upper die assembly 10 pressing excessively on the lower die assembly 20, causing damage to the die or quality problems in the produced products. At the same time, by adjusting the distance between the upper limiting column 320 and the lower limiting column 330, the closing degree of the die can be accurately controlled to meet the production requirements of different products.
[0041] Specifically, the lower limiting column 330 is installed on the top surface of the lower die base 210 and is vertically aligned with the upper limiting column 320. This design ensures that the upper and lower limiting columns can accurately dock when the die is closed, forming an effective limiting structure. At the same time, the lower limiting column 330 also plays a role in supporting the lower die assembly 20, improving the overall stability of the die.
[0042] Combined with the accompanying drawings of the specification Figures 1 - 7 As shown, the first shearing component 120 includes a first fixed plate 1210, a shearing punch 1220, a first blank holding block 1230, and a first floating pull rod 1240. The first fixed plate 1210 is connected to the bottom surface of the upper die base 110. The shearing punch 1220 is disposed in the through hole opened in the first fixed plate 1210, and the shearing punch 1220 is connected to the bottom surface of the upper die base 110. The upper part of the first floating pull rod 1240 is disposed in the first installation groove opened in the upper die base 110. The lower rod body of the first floating pull rod 1240 passes through the upper die base 110 and the shearing punch 1220 and is connected to the top surface of the first blank holding block 1230. The second shearing component 220 includes a die holder fixed plate 2210, a shearing die 2220, and a knockout block 2230. The die holder fixed plate 2210 is disposed on the top surface of the lower die base 210. The shearing die 2220 is disposed on the top surface of the die holder fixed plate 2210. The knockout block 2230 is located in the third installation groove opened inside the die holder fixed plate 2210 and the shearing die 2220, and is connected to the connecting component 40, and a cavity is provided between the knockout block 2230 and the top surface of the lower die base 210.
[0043] It is explained that when the mold is in the closed state, the cutting punch 1220 of the first cutting component 120 is precisely aligned with the cutting die 2220 of the second cutting component 220 to form a cutting station. At this time, due to the traction of the first floating pull rod 1240, the first blank holder 1230 closely adheres to the upper surface of the material to be cut, ensuring that the material will not be displaced or deformed due to uneven force during the cutting process. As the upper die base 110 moves downward, the cutting punch 1220 begins to contact the cutting die 2220 and apply a cutting force. In this process, the ejector block 2230 plays a key supporting role. It is located inside the cutting die 2220 and is closely connected to the connecting component 40, enabling the cutting die 2220 to remain stable when subjected to the cutting force. When the cutting force reaches a certain level, the material to be cut is cut off under the combined action of the cutting punch 1220 and the cutting die 2220. Then, the entire lower die part is rotated by the lower workbench of the press to cut off the excess waste of the part, completing the work of process 1.
[0044] Specifically, the second cutting component 220 further includes a rubber pad 2240, and the rubber pad 2240 is arranged in the cavity between the ejector block 2230 and the top surface of the lower die base 210.
[0045] Combined with the attached drawings of the specification Figures 1 - 7 As shown, the first cutting-off component 130 includes a cutting-off punch 1310, a cutting-off die 1320, a second blank holder 1330, and a second floating pull rod 1340. The cutting-off punch 1310 is connected to the bottom surface of the upper die base 110. At least two second floating pull rods 1340 are provided and are respectively arranged in the second installation grooves formed in the upper die base 110. The lower rod body of the second floating pull rod 1340 passes through the upper die base 110 and is connected to the second blank holder 1330. The cutting-off die 1320 is arranged on the top surface of the cutting-off punch 1310. The second cutting-off component 230 includes a second fixing plate 2310 and a positioning block 2320. The second fixing plate 2310 is arranged on the top surface of the lower die base 210. The positioning block 2320 is located in the third installation groove formed in the second fixing plate 2310 and is connected to the connecting component 40.
[0046] It is explained that the first cutting member 130 and the second cutting member 230 work together to ensure accurate cutting and positioning during the stamping process. The cutting punch 1310 and the cutting die 1320 of the first cutting member 130 are in precise clearance fit to ensure accurate cutting of the metal sheet during the stamping process. When the trimmed part is placed in process 2 and the press is lowered, the part is pressed against the second cutting member 230, and the lower workbench of the press drives the entire lower die part to rotate, cutting off the excess waste material at the small tube opening of the part, completing the work of process 2, and making the part finally meet the design size requirements. It reduces the number of stamping equipment occupied and the number of operators, and improves the production capacity.
[0047] Specifically, the cutting punch 1310 is connected to the bottom surface of the upper die base 110, and the cutting function is realized through the up and down movement of the die. The second floating pull rod 1340 plays a role in stabilizing the cutting process. At least two second floating pull rods 1340 are provided to ensure that during the cutting process, the second pressure block 1330 can apply pressure smoothly, avoiding the movement or deformation of the metal sheet during the cutting process.
[0048] Combined with the accompanying drawings of the specification Figures 1 - 7 As shown, the connecting member 40 includes a connecting ejector rod 410, a connecting top plate 420, and a transfer ejector rod 430. One end of the connecting ejector rod 410 is rotatably connected to the lower workbench, the other end of the connecting ejector rod 410 is connected to the connecting top plate 420, the connecting top plate is arranged inside the fourth installation groove opened in the lower die base 210, and at least two transfer ejector rods 430 are provided and are respectively connected to the ejector block 2230 and the positioning block 2320.
[0049] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present application and are not used to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art, various changes and modifications can be made to the present application. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
