Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of automotive crossbeam hole forming and processing, and more specifically, it relates to a tooling structure for compensating for cumulative error of springback during multi-process forming of automotive crossbeams. Background Technology

[0002] In the modern automotive manufacturing industry, the automotive roof beam is a key component for vehicle load-bearing and safety. Its forming accuracy plays a decisive role in the vehicle's handling performance, collision safety, and assembly quality. Automotive beams typically require multiple complex forming processes, such as deep drawing, bending, and shaping, to meet design requirements. However, during the multi-process forming process, springback is one of the main factors that makes it difficult to control forming accuracy. Springback refers to the change in size and shape of the sheet material due to elastic recovery after the removal of external force during the forming process. For large and complex structural components like automotive beams, the springback errors generated by each forming process not only affect each other but also accumulate as the process progresses, ultimately leading to a significant deviation between the actual dimensions and the design dimensions.

[0003] Based on the above, existing automotive crossbeams require a stamping and hole-making process after stamping. A single stamping operation for hole-making can easily reduce the stability of the automotive crossbeam. When the external force is removed, the automotive crossbeam will produce a large error due to elastic recovery. After forming, the workpiece needs to be manually corrected or reprocessed. However, this method is inefficient, costly, and can easily damage the surface quality of the workpiece, making it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale automated production. Utility Model Content

This addresses the issue that after stamping, automotive crossbeams require stamping and hole-making operations. Single-stamping for hole-making can easily reduce the stability of the automotive crossbeam. When the external force is removed, the automotive crossbeam will generate significant errors due to elastic recovery. After forming, the workpiece needs to be manually corrected or subjected to secondary processing. However, this method is inefficient, costly, and easily damages the surface quality of the workpiece, making it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale automated production.

[0008] Furthermore, the top of the supporting base frame is also provided with an assembly support groove and a positioning support ring; the assembly support groove is opened at the top of the supporting base frame, and the positioning support ring is fixedly set inside the assembly support groove.

[0009] Furthermore, the inner side of the rotating slot is also provided with a rotating support ring, a bearing side column, a movable support column, and a movable wheel; the rotating support ring is rotatably sleeved on the inner side of the rotating slot, the bearing side column is fixedly set on the side of the rotating support ring, and the movable support column is fixedly set on the side of the bearing side column and the side of the forming support.

[0010] Furthermore, the top of the load-bearing support is also provided with a processing support, a compensation support, and a hydraulic support; the hydraulic support is fixedly installed on the top of the load-bearing support, and four sets of processing supports and one set of compensation supports are respectively fixedly installed on the top of five sets of hydraulic supports.

[0011] Furthermore, the side of the assembly support plate is also provided with a reinforcing side column and a hydraulic support column; the reinforcing side column is fixedly installed on the top of the assembly support plate, and the hydraulic support column is fixedly installed on the side of the reinforcing side column.

[0013] This utility model provides a tooling structure for compensating for cumulative springback error during multi-process forming of automotive crossbeams, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] This utility model achieves the following optimization effects by providing a load-bearing bottom frame, a load-bearing support, a load-bearing sleeve, a load-bearing support, and a load-bearing top support:

[0015] Precise positioning and stable load-bearing: By utilizing the precise fit between the forming support and the forming groove, the automotive crossbeam can be fixed and supported in all directions with high rigidity, effectively avoiding displacement and shaking during processing, providing a stable foundation for high-precision forming, and ensuring the positioning accuracy of the crossbeam in each process.

[0016] Intelligent circular processing path: The motor drives the adjusting worm gear and adjusting worm wheel to drive the rotating support to achieve flexible rotation adjustment, so that the forming support can carry the car crossbeam to move in an orderly manner along the circular path. This design breaks through the traditional linear processing mode, so that the crossbeam can reach multiple sets of processing supports and forming pressure seats in sequence and accurately, realizing continuous and automated processing of multiple processes such as stamping and opening, and greatly improving production efficiency.

[0017] Dynamic compensation for cumulative errors: When the automotive crossbeam completes the forming process such as stamping and opening, and moves between the compensation support and the compensation pressure seat, the device can accurately correct the size and shape of the crossbeam by coordinating the stamping and resetting of the compensation support and the compensation pressure seat to address the cumulative errors generated during the multi-process forming process. This effectively reduces forming errors caused by factors such as springback and significantly improves the final forming accuracy of the crossbeam.

[0018] Integrated design: The fixed load-bearing, multi-process forming and error compensation functions of the automotive crossbeam are integrated into the same tooling structure, which simplifies the production process and reduces the number of workpiece transfer links. This reduces the risk of collision damage caused by transfer and saves equipment floor space and production costs. Attached Figure Description
