The third upper push tube 612 is abutted against the upper end face of the preformed blank d under the action of the upper push rod, so that the sixth upper punch rod 611 is separated from the preformed blank d. The third lower push tube pushes the preformed blank d out of the sixth lower punch rod 622 under the action of the lower push rod and ejects the preformed blank d from the sixth cavity.
[0063] Referring to Figure 2 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 , according to the inner hole stepped thin-walled pipe for an automobile chassis, the pipe body 700 is provided with a large hole 710 and a small hole 720 which are connected in communication, and the axial directions of the large hole 710 and the small hole 720 are consistent with the axial direction of the pipe body 700.
[0064] The inner hole step thin wall pipe is directly cold upsetting formed by six station die continuous cold extrusion deformation, and the inner hole step and thin wall are directly formed. The inner hole step thin wall pipe formed by low carbon steel directly cold upsetting is a finished product, and no additional processing is needed. The processing procedure is reduced, the production efficiency is improved, and the production cost is saved. The cold upsetting production process is stable, and only one operator is needed to operate the production line. The inner hole step thin wall pipe directly produced by cold upsetting can guarantee the consistency of product size because the formed size is controlled by the die. The complete metal flow line can be reserved in the cold upsetting process, and the mechanical properties of the inner hole step thin wall pipe are obviously improved and the product quality is obviously improved due to the cold work hardening of the metal.
[0065] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 , In some embodiments, referring to Figure 9 , In some embodiments, referring to Figure 10 , The ratio of the hole diameter of the pipe body 700 to the hole diameter of the large hole 710 is in the range of 1.15-1.16, which meets the requirements of the automobile chassis.
