Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of stamping of fuel tank shells, in particular to a stamping die for an automobile fuel tank shell. Background Art
[0002] The stamping die for an automobile fuel tank shell is an indispensable key process in modern automobile manufacturing. The stamping die processes metal sheets into the required fuel tank shape through a series of technological steps, including shearing, punching, stretching, and trimming, etc. High-strength steel plates or aluminum alloys are usually used to meet the strength and corrosion resistance requirements. The shell is divided into two parts for stamping, and finally the two shells are welded to complete the production of the fuel tank shell. While requiring the stamped steel plate to fit tightly with the inside of the die, the die itself also needs to use wear-resistant materials such as high-speed steel or cemented carbide to ensure a long service life.
[0003] Nowadays, when stamping the fuel tank shell, it is necessary to manually place the steel plate on the die for stamping and manually take out the formed shell. The formed fuel tank shell fits with the surface of the die, and due to some irregular designs of the shell itself, it is difficult for workers to apply force to the fuel tank shell, resulting in a slow demolding speed and inconvenient removal of the formed shell. Therefore, a stamping die for an automobile fuel tank shell is proposed. Summary of the Utility Model

[0029] Example
[0030] Reference Figures 1-4 , which is an embodiment of the utility model, provides a stamping die for an automobile fuel tank shell, including a stamping unit 100 and a molding unit 200.
[0031] The stamping unit 100 includes a support platform 101 and an L-shaped plate 102 fixedly connected to the side of the support platform 101. A hydraulic telescopic rod 103 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the L-shaped plate 102. The output end of the hydraulic telescopic rod 103 is fixedly connected to a fixed plate 104. An upper mold 105 is fixed to the bottom of the fixed plate 104 by bolts. The fixed plate 104 is used to install upper molds 105 of different specifications. Two movable rods 211 are hinged on the side of the L-shaped plate 102. The tops of the two movable rods 211 are rotatably connected to L-shaped rods 212. The upper mold 105 is driven by the hydraulic telescopic rod 103 to reciprocate up and down for stamping. The upper mold 105 can be supported by rotating the two movable rods 211 and the L-shaped rod 212 to facilitate installation and disassembly of the upper mold 105.
[0032] The forming unit 200 includes a movable plate 201 movably arranged on the top of the support table 101. A plurality of limiting rods 202 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the movable plate 201. The bottom ends of the plurality of limiting rods 202 all penetrate and extend to the bottom of the support table 101. A first spring 203 is sleeved on the limiting rod 202. The bottom of the support table 101 is threadedly connected with a threaded rod 204. The top end of the threaded rod 204 is rotatably connected with a gantry plate 205. The bottom end of the gantry plate 205 penetrates and extends to the bottom of the support table 101. A lower mold 206 is fixedly bolted to the top of the gantry plate 205. A through groove adapted to the lower mold 206 is formed in the top of the movable plate 201. A demolding assembly 207 is arranged in the inner cavity of the lower mold 206. A gantry strip 210 is fixedly connected to the top of the movable plate 201. The two ends of the gantry strip 210 away from the L-shaped plate 102 are designed to be V-shaped distributed. Rotating the threaded rod 204 can adjust the height of the gantry plate 205. The gantry plate 205 is composed of a rectangular plate and two straight rods. The straight rods penetrate and extend to the bottom of the movable plate 201, so as to facilitate the movable plate 201 to adapt to lower molds 206 of different heights, and enable the top of the movable plate 201 to be flush with the lower mold 206.
[0033] During use, place the steel plate on the movable plate 201. The gantry strip 210 facilitates the worker to quickly and accurately place the steel plate on the movable plate 201, thus ensuring the consistency of stamping forming. When the upper mold 105 descends, the upper mold 105 pushes the movable plate 201 to descend. Subsequently, the upper mold 105 wraps the lower mold 206 to stamp the steel plate to form an automobile fuel tank shell. When the upper mold 105 ascends, the first spring 203 pushes the movable plate 201 to ascend, so that the steel plate and the stamped shell are separated from the lower mold 206, facilitating the worker to take it out.
[0034] The demoulding assembly 207 includes two circular grooves 2071 formed in the top of the lower die 206. At the bottom of the inner walls of the two circular grooves 2071, second springs 2072 are fixedly connected. At the top of the two second springs 2072, demoulding rods 2073 are fixedly connected. The demoulding rod 2073 is composed of a round rod and a T-shaped rod. The T-shaped rod is threadedly connected to the top of the round rod. The bottom of the demoulding rod 2073 is slidably arranged inside the circular groove 2071. During the stamping process of the automobile fuel tank, the upper die 105 presses the demoulding rod 2073 into the circular groove 2071. When the stamping is completed, the movable plate 201 is affected by the weight of the steel plate and thus is lower than the height of the lower die 206. At this time, the second spring 2072 pushes the demoulding rod 2073 to rise so as to separate the formed shell from the top of the lower die 206 and lift it upward, making there be a gap between the stamped steel plate and the top of the movable plate 201, thus facilitating the worker to quickly and conveniently take out the shell. By rotating the T-shaped rod, the overall height of the demoulding rod 2073 can be adjusted so that it can adapt to different dies, so that the demoulding rod 2073 is flush with the top of the lower die 206 during the stamping process, thus not affecting the stamping effect.
[0035] In addition, a cutting ring 208 is fixedly sleeved on the side of the upper die 105. An annular groove 209 that fits the cutting ring 208 is formed in the top of the movable plate 201. When the upper die 105 descends to stamp the steel plate with the lower die 206, the cutting ring 208 will contact the steel plate, and through the annular groove 209, the cutting ring 208 cuts the steel plate so that the formed automobile fuel tank shell is separated from the redundant steel plate, thereby enabling the shell to be formed in one stamping, thus facilitating the subsequent welding of the two shells.
[0036] During use, the steel plate is placed on the movable plate 201 through the portal strip 210. Then, the hydraulic telescopic rod 103 is started to drive the fixed plate 104 to descend. By the descent of the upper die 105, the upper die 105 pushes the movable plate 201 to descend. Then, the upper die 105 wraps the lower die 206 to stamp the steel plate to form an automobile fuel tank shell. At this time, the demoulding rod 2073 is squeezed into the circular groove 2071, and the cutting ring 208 will contact the steel plate. Through the annular groove 209, the cutting ring 208 cuts the steel plate around the upper die 105. When the upper die 105 rises, the first spring 203 pushes the movable plate 201 to rise, separating the steel plate and the stamped shell from the lower die 206. At the same time, the second spring 2072 pushes the demoulding rod 2073 to rise so as to separate the formed shell from the top of the lower die 206 and lift it upward, making there be a gap between the stamped steel plate and the top of the movable plate 201, thus facilitating the worker to quickly and conveniently take out the shell and the cut steel plate in sequence.
[0037] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention rather than to limit them. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present invention can be modified or equivalently replaced without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention, and they should all be covered within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
