Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive body stamping die technology, and in particular to automotive body stamping die with buffer protection. Background Technology

[0002] As a crucial component of the vehicle body structure, the forming quality of the car body directly impacts the safety and aesthetics of the entire vehicle. Stamping is a key process in car body manufacturing. However, traditional stamping dies are prone to rigid collisions during high-speed stamping, leading to concentrated impact forces between the die and the sheet metal. This not only accelerates die wear but also causes localized deformation or cracking of the workpiece due to excessive instantaneous stress. With the advancement of automotive lightweighting trends, the widespread use of high-strength steel sheets and aluminum alloys has further amplified this problem. Therefore, developing a car body stamping die with buffer protection functions has become an important research direction for improving the stability of the stamping process and the life of the die. Such a die needs to absorb impact energy through a flexible buffer mechanism while ensuring forming accuracy, thereby balancing production efficiency and equipment durability.

[0003] Most existing automotive body stamping dies adopt a rigid guiding structure, mainly composed of an upper die base, a lower die base, and guide pillars and bushings. During the stamping process, the hydraulic press drives the upper die to press vertically down along the guide pillars, and the sheet metal is formed by the cooperation of the punch and die. In order to control the return stroke accuracy, some dies will be equipped with limit blocks or mechanical locking devices on the guide pillars. The demolding process relies on manual prying or simple ejection mechanisms, such as spring ejector rods fixed at the bottom of the die base. Such structures rely on the direct contact of metal parts to transmit force. Although they can ensure the basic forming requirements, the buffer design is generally insufficient, especially under high-speed continuous stamping conditions, the dynamic stability of the die is poor.

[0004] The main problem with existing technology is that rigid collisions during the stamping process cannot be effectively mitigated. When the upper die contacts the sheet metal, the impact force is directly transmitted to the workpiece and die base through the rigid structure of the die. Long-term operation can easily lead to wear problems such as increased clearance between the guide post and the guide sleeve, and chipping of the punch cutting edge. At the same time, the instantaneous impact can cause unexpected plastic deformation of the sheet metal, affecting the dimensional accuracy of the workpiece. Especially for materials with thinner thickness or poor ductility, the yield rate is significantly reduced. This defect forces companies to frequently stop to repair the die and increase scrap disposal costs, which seriously restricts the efficiency and economy of mass production of automobile bodies. To solve the above problems, a stamping die for automobile bodies with buffer protection is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a car body stamping die with buffer protection, which aims to improve the technical problems of severe die wear and easy workpiece deformation caused by rigid collision during traditional die stamping.

The outer wall of the ejector pin is also slidably connected to the inside of the lower mold base.

[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0013] A movable rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the movable plate, and a fixed plate is slidably connected to the outer wall of the movable rod. The outer wall of the fixed plate is fixedly connected to the inside of the outer shell.

[0017] The outer wall of the movable rod is fitted with a second spring. One end of the second spring is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed block, and the other end of the second spring is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed ring.

[0018] As a further description of the above technical solution:

The bottom of the ejector pin 15 is fixedly connected to the top of the movable plate 14, so that the movement of the movable plate 14 is directly transmitted to the ejector pin 15. The outer wall of the ejector pin 15 is slidably connected to the inside of the outer shell 1 to ensure that the ejector pin 15 moves stably in the vertical direction.

The outer wall of the movable rod 13 is slidably connected to the inside of the fixed block 17 to ensure that the movable rod 13 moves in a straight line. The moving rod 13 is fixedly connected to a fixed ring 16 at its bottom. The fixed ring 16 is used to compress the second spring 18 and assist in resetting.

The top of the fixed plate 12 is fixedly connected to... A slide rail 20 is connected to the trapezoidal block 22, which provides precise sliding guidance. The trapezoidal block 22 is slidably connected inside the slide rail 20. The trapezoidal block 22 converts the horizontal thrust into the vertical output force through the inclined structure. The top of the trapezoidal block 22 contacts the bottom of the roller 19 to achieve effective force transmission. A push rod 21 is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed plate 12. The push rod 21 acts as a power source to drive the movement of the trapezoidal block 22. The output end of the push rod 21 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the trapezoidal block 22, directly transmitting the linear motion of the push rod 21 to the trapezoidal block 22.

[0040] Working principle: During the stamping of the automotive mold, the hydraulic cylinder 4 is activated, and its output end pushes the pressure plate 5 to slide downward along the fixed rod 2, causing the upper mold base 6 to move downward synchronously. During the stamping process, the upper mold base 6 first contacts the sheet metal, and then, as it continues to press down, the buffer pad 1 8 contacts the buffer pad 2 10. At this time, the connecting rod 9 begins to insert into the buffer pad 2 10, and the spring 1 11 is gradually compressed. At this time, the impact energy is first deformed through the elastic materials of the buffer pad 1 8 and the buffer pad 2 10, converting part of the impact energy into elastic potential energy. Subsequently, the compression process of the spring 1 11 prolongs the impact time and reduces the instantaneous peak load. Finally, the sliding friction of the connecting rod 9 in the buffer pad 2 10 further dissipates the energy. When the forming is completed, the hydraulic cylinder 4 retracts, and the spring 1 1 1... The elastic potential energy stored in the first 11 is released, and the auxiliary pressure plate 5 quickly resets. When demolding the car mold, the output end of the push rod 21 pushes the trapezoidal block 22 to move horizontally along the slide rail 20. When the inclined surface of the trapezoidal block 22 contacts the roller 19, the horizontal thrust is converted into a vertical upward force through the inclined surface, pushing the moving plate 14 to move upward. The moving plate 14 drives the moving rod 13 and the ejector rod 15 to rise synchronously. The ejector rod 15 passes through the lower mold base 7 to eject the molded workpiece. During this process, the fixed ring 16 moves upward with the moving rod 13 and compresses the second spring 18. When the push rod 21 retracts, the restoring force of the second spring 18 drives the entire ejection mechanism to reset through the fixed ring 16. The inclined surface of the trapezoidal block 22 makes the ejection action fast and smooth, and the roller 19 reduces the motion friction, thereby achieving the purpose of rapid demolding.

[0041] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
