There is a problem that the tensile stress and the compressive stress applied cause the ribs 2 to be wrinkled or the face plate 1 near the T-shaped intersection 3 to be easily cracked. For this reason, in setting the dimensions of the above-described extrusion die, conventionally, a shape that can be bent is selected according to the know-how of a processing maker, or an extrusion die having a plurality of dimensions and shapes is prepared in advance, and these are actually used by using these. The shape is set by performing a bending test, and there is a problem that it takes a lot of time to set these shapes and set conditions such as bending.

に最大応力が大きくなる。According to the extrusion member of the first aspect, the maximum stress at the T-shaped intersection is reduced, and the bending workability is improved. This will be described with reference to FIG. 2. FIG. 2 shows the maximum stress generated at the T-shaped intersection at that time by changing the thickness t 1 of the face plate and the thickness t 2 of the rib. . In FIG. 2, the maximum stress is small when t 1 / t 2 is 1.1 or more, and the maximum stress is sharply increased when t 1 / t 2 is less than 1.1.

As a result, the bending workability of the extruded mold material is improved, and occurrence of defective products can be suppressed.

That is, FIG. 3 shows the maximum stress value when the value of the corner radius R is changed under the condition of the above equation (1). From the figure, it can be seen that the corner radius R is different from the face plate thickness t 1. When it is in the above range, the maximum stress value becomes smaller. Therefore, by setting the extruded die according to the first aspect as described in the second aspect, a crack is not generated at the T-shaped intersection of the face plate.

A plurality of extruded aluminum-shaped extruded aluminum members having a length of 1300 mm and having different thicknesses t 1 of the face plate 11 and thicknesses t 2 of the ribs 12 were prepared. Next, a core was put into the hollow portion of these extruded members, and a bending test at an angle of 30 ° was performed by a press machine. Table 1 shows the results of a bending test on an extruded die having a thickness t 1 of the face plate 11 and a thickness t 2 of the rib 12 shown in the table.

向上していることが判る。From Table 1, when the ratio t 1 / t 2 is set to 1.1 or more, the ribs 12 expand with respect to the high strength of the face plate 11 during bending, so that the wrinkles of the ribs 12 are reduced.
It can be seen that the cracks in the face plate are also reduced, and as a result, the bending workability of the extruded die is improved.

On the other hand, when it is in the range of 0.5t 1 ≦ R ≦ 4t 1 , the maximum stress value becomes smaller, and as a result, cracks are less likely to occur in the T-shaped intersection 13 of the face plate 11. I understand.

ことができる。As described above, according to the extruded die of the present invention, a tubular face plate and at least one reinforcing rib connecting the face plates are integrally extruded, particularly of aluminum or aluminum alloy. Even when an extruded material is formed and one of the T-shaped intersections of the face plate and the rib receives a tensile load and the other is bent in a direction to receive a compressive load, the bending process is performed. Therefore, the ribs are easily wrinkled at the T-shaped intersections, or cracks are generated in the face plate near the intersections, without the need for setting the shape by a large number of experiments or the like. It is possible to obtain an extruded material that is free from rubbing.
