【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明はプレス成形品の据え込みプレス増肉方法に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来より、図7(A)に示すように筒状ボス部130aと筒状ボス部130aから径外方向に延設されたフランジ部130cとをもつ金属製の成形品130が提供されている。この成形品130は、製造工程の関係で筒状ボス部130aの周壁の厚みが薄くなることがある。そこで従来より、プレス成形品130の筒状ボス部130aの厚みを増肉するプレス増肉方法が開発されている。
【0003】
この方法においては図7(A)に示すように、互いに対面して配置され成形品130のフランジ部130cを挟持する下ダイ300および上ダイ400と、下ダイ300の下パンチ挿入孔320に相対的に昇降可能に挿入され成形品130の筒状ボス部130a内に進入可能な下パンチ500と、上ダイ400の上パンチ挿入孔420に相対的に昇降可能に挿入される先端加圧面650をもつ据え込み用の上パンチ600とを用いる。
【0004】
図7(A)は据え込み増肉前の状態を示し、図7(B)は増肉操作する直前の状態を示し、図7(C)は増肉操作した後の状態を示す。
そして図7(A)に示すように、上ダイ400と下ダイ300とで成形品130のフランジ部130cを挟むと共に、上ダイ400および下ダイ300を下パンチ500に対して相対的に矢印Y1方向に下降させることにより、図7(B)に示すように成形品130の筒状ボス部130a内に下パンチ500を進入させる進入操作を行う。
【0005】
進入操作後に、図7(C)に示すように、上パンチ600を下降させて成形品130の筒状ボス部130aを据え込んで筒状ボス部130aの周壁の軸長寸法を短縮すると共に、成形品130の筒状ボス部130aの周壁をこれの厚み方向に増肉する増肉操作を実施する。
図8(A)〜(C)に示す形態は、基本的には、図7(A)〜(C)に示す形態と同様である。図8(A)は据え込み増肉前の状態を示し、図8(B)は据え込み増肉操作する直前の状態を示し、図8(C)は増肉増肉操作した後の状態を示す。
【0006】
この方法によれば、成形品130の筒状ボス部130aをこれの厚み方向に増肉することが可能となる。
しかしながら図7(C)に示すように、成形品130の筒状ボス部130aに肉引け状の欠陥が発生し易い。
また図8(C)に示すように、成形品130の筒状ボス部130aとフランジ部130cとの境界領域に折れ込み状の欠陥が発生し易い。
【0007】
上記したように肉引けや折れ込み等の欠陥のため、成形品130の品質は必ずしも十分ではない。そこで従来においては上記した製品は、薄い板体を曲成するプレス成形を採用することなく、塑性変形能が高い熱間鍛造を厚肉素材に対して行ない、冷却後に、その鍛造品に対して切削加工を施すことにより形成されていたのが実情であった。
【0008】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明は上記した実情に鑑みなされたものであり、欠陥の低減に有利なプレス成形品の据え込みプレス増肉方法を提供することを課題とするにある。
【0009】
【課題を解決するための手段】
発明に係るプレス成形品の据え込みプレス増肉方法は、
蓋部を有する筒状ボス部と前記筒状ボス部から径外方向に延設されたフランジ部とをもつ金属製のプレス成形品と、
互いに対面して配置され前記プレス成形品の前記フランジ部を挟持する下ダイおよび上ダイと、
下ダイと別体をなし下ダイの下パンチ挿入孔に相対的に昇降可能に挿入されプレス成形品の筒状ボス部内に進入可能な下パンチと、
上ダイの上パンチ挿入孔に相対的に昇降可能に挿入されプレス成形品の筒状ボス部の蓋部に対面して加圧可能な先端加圧面をもつ据え込み用の上パンチとを用い
プレス成形品の筒状ボス部内に下パンチの進入が抑えられた状態で、上ダイと下ダイとでプレス成形品のフランジ部を挟むと共に、上ダイおよび下ダイを下パンチに対して相対的に下降させることにより、プレス成形品の筒状ボス部内に下パンチを進入させ、下パンチの外壁面をプレス成形品の筒状ボス部の内壁面に対面させる進入操作と、
進入操作後に、プレス成形品の筒状ボス部の周壁を据え込んで筒状ボス部の周壁の軸長寸法を短縮すると共に、筒状ボス部の周壁をこれの厚み方向に増肉する増肉操作とを順に実施し、
上パンチの先端加圧面の外縁部には、プレス成形品に向けて下方に膨出すると共に前記筒状ボス部の周壁の投影軸端面に対面可能な第1リング状膨出部が形成されており、
下ダイの前記下パンチ挿入孔の上面開口の内縁部には、プレス成形品の筒状ボス部に向けて上向きに膨出すると共に第1リング状膨出部にプレス成形品を介して対面する位置関係で設けられている第2リング状膨出部が形成されており、
増肉操作の際に、下ダイの第2リング状膨出部がプレス成形品の筒状ボス部の周壁とフランジ部との境界領域に位置した状態で、上パンチの先端加圧面で蓋部を加圧すると共に先端加圧面の第1リング状膨出部を、プレス成形品の筒状ボス部の周壁に加圧して筒状ボス部の周壁の増肉を行うことを特徴とするものである。
【0011】
【発明の実施の形態】
プレス成形品は金属製であり、筒状ボス部と、筒状ボス部から径外方向に延設されたフランジ部とをもつものである。
発明に係る据え込みプレス増肉方法においては、増肉操作の際に、上パンチの先端加圧面の第1リング状膨出部をプレス成形品の筒状ボス部の周壁に加圧して筒状ボス部の増肉を行う。
【0012】
発明に係る据え込みプレス増肉方法においては、増肉操作の際に、下ダイの第2リング状膨出部がプレス成形品の筒状ボス部の周壁とフランジ部との境界領域に位置した状態で、プレス成形品の筒状ボス部の周壁の増肉を行う。
【0013】
【実施例】
(第1実施例)
以下、第1実施例を図1〜図5を参照して説明する。
本実施例においては、図1(A)に示す一枚の薄い金属製の板体10(炭素鋼系)を用い、この板体10を適宜絞り成形することにより、図1(B)に示すように中央領域に膨出部12aを備えた予備プレス成形品12を成形する。さらに、予備プレス成形品12に対してプレス加工により絞り成形することにより、図1(C)に示す金属製のカップ状をなすプレス成形品13を成形する。従ってプレス成形品13は、本実施例に係るプレス増肉操作の前後に関わらず、コスト高を誘発する鍛造工程は経ていない。
【0014】
図1(C)に示すようにプレス成形品13は、孔10pをもつほぼ直円筒形状をなす筒状ボス部13aと、筒状ボス部13aの周壁13fの端から径外方向に延設された幅広なフランジ部13dとをもつ。プレス成形品13においては絞り成形の関係上、筒状ボス部13aの肉厚はフランジ部13dに比較して薄くなる。場合によっては、板体10の肉厚がT1であるとき、プレス成形品13の筒状ボス部13aの周壁13fの肉厚T2がT1の50%以下となることもある。本実施例は、薄くなった筒状ボス部13aの周壁13fを増肉してこれの厚みを厚くすることを主目的とする。
【0015】
図2は、実施する操作と共に使用するプレス増肉装置2を示す。このプレス増肉装置2は、互いに対面して配置された金属製の下ダイ3および金属製の上ダイ4と、金属製の下パンチ5と、据え込み用の金属製の上パンチ6とを備えている。
上ダイ4は、プレス成形装置に昇降可能に設けられた図略の昇降体に上パンチ6と共に保持されており、昇降可能とされている。
【0016】
上ダイ4は下方に対面する水平平坦状をなす加圧面40をもつ。下ダイ3は上ダイ4の加圧面40に対面する水平平坦面状をなす被加圧面30をもつ。下ダイ3は下パンチ5と共に図略の基台に搭載されている。
下ダイ3はアウターダイとして機能できる。下ダイ3には、縦向きの断面円形状をなす下パンチ挿入孔32が形成されている。下ダイ3の下パンチ挿入孔32には、インナーパンチとして機能できる下パンチ5が相対的に昇降可能に挿入されている。下パンチ5の先端部5aの外径はプレス成形品13の筒状ボス部13aの内径に対応している。
【0017】
従ってプレス成形品13の筒状ボス部13a内に下パンチ5の先端部5aが進入できるようにされている。Pmは下ダイ3の下パンチ挿入孔32の中心軸線を示す。Pmは下パンチ5、上パンチ6の中心軸線でもある。
上ダイ4には縦向きの断面円形状をなす上パンチ挿入孔42が形成されている。上パンチ挿入孔42の孔径はプレス成形品13の筒状ボス部13aの外径に対応している。従って、上パンチ挿入孔42はプレス成形品13の筒状ボス部13aを嵌め得るようにされている。なお上パンチ挿入孔42の孔径D1は下パンチ挿入孔32の孔径D2よりも大きい。
【0018】
上ダイ4の上パンチ挿入孔42には、インナーパンチとして機能できる横断面円形状の上パンチ6が相対的に昇降可能に挿入されている。上パンチ6の下端面には、プレス成形品13の筒状ボス部13aの蓋部13cに対面可能な先端加圧面65が形成されている。
上パンチ6の先端加圧面65の外縁部には、第1リング状膨出部66が上パンチ6を1周するように形成されている。第1リング状膨出部66は、プレス成形品13に向けて下方に膨出していると共に、図2(A)から理解できるように筒状ボス部13aの周壁13fのリング状の投影軸端面13xに対面可能とされている。
【0019】
図3は上パンチ6の断面を示す。図3に示すように第1リング状膨出部66は、水平に指向しているリング状をなす第1リング面66sと、第1リング面66sで包囲されたリング状をなす第1傾斜面66tとをもつ。第1傾斜面66tは第1リング面66sから径内方向(矢印M1方向)に向かうにつれて上昇傾斜している。
【0020】
図5は下ダイ3の要部付近を示す。図5に示すように本実施例においては、下ダイ3の下パンチ挿入孔32の上面開口32kの内縁部には、上向きに膨出する第2リング状膨出部36が形成されている。第2リング状膨出部36は下パンチ挿入孔32を1周している。第2リング状膨出部36は、第2リング面36sと、第2リング面36sから径外方向に延設された第2傾斜面36tとをもつ。第2傾斜面36tは第2リング面36sから径外方向(矢印M2方向)に向かうにつれて下降傾斜している。
【0021】
図2(A)〜(C)に示すように、第1リング状膨出部66および第2リング状膨出部36は、プレス成形品13を介して、互いに実質的に対面する位置関係で設けられている。ここで第1リング状膨出部66は第2リング状膨出部36の上方に位置している。
さて本実施例においては増肉操作の際には、図2(A)から理解できるように、下ダイ3の被加圧面30にプレス成形品13のフランジ部13dを載せてセットする。このとき下ダイ3の第2リング状膨出部36がプレス成形品13の筒状ボス部13aとフランジ部13dとの境界領域に位置している。
【0022】
そして図2(A)に示すように、上ダイ4を矢印Y1方向に下降させて上ダイ4の加圧面40と下ダイ3の被加圧面30とでプレス成形品13のフランジ部13dを挟んでフランジ部13dを拘束した状態で、上ダイ4および下ダイ3を下パンチ5に対して矢印Y1方向に相対的にさらに下降させる。なお図2(A)に示す状態から、上ダイ4の下降量と下ダイ3の下降量とは実質的に同一である。
【0023】
上ダイ4および下ダイ3が共に下降した状態は、図2(B)に示されている。図2(B)に示ように、プレス成形品13の筒状ボス部13aの孔13p内に下パンチ5の先端部5aが進入している。
このように下パンチ5の先端部5aが進入した状態においては、図2(B)に示ように、下パンチ5の先端面51はプレス成形品13の筒状ボス部13aの蓋部13cに接近して対面していると共に、下パンチ5の外壁面50はプレス成形品13の筒状ボス部13aの内壁面13kに対面している。またプレス成形品13の筒状ボス部13aの外壁面13hは上ダイ4の上パンチ挿入孔42の内壁面42mにより対面している。
【0024】
上記したように進入操作を実行した後に、図略の昇降体の下降により、図2(C)に示すように、上パンチ6が矢印Y1方向に下降する。このとき下降した上パンチ6に下パンチ5は加圧され、下パンチ5も矢印Y1方向に連動して下降する。筒状ボス部13aの軸長方向における据え込み量を確保するため、上パンチ6の下降量よりも下パンチ5の下降量は小さく設定されている。
【0025】
従って図2(C)に示ように、プレス成形品13の筒状ボス部13aの周壁13fは据え込まれる。従って、プレス成形品13の筒状ボス部13aの周壁13fは軸長寸法が短縮すると共に、短縮に伴い筒状ボス部13aの周壁13fの材料肉が半径方向に膨出する。これによりプレス成形品13の筒状ボス部13aの周壁13fがこれの厚み方向に増肉される。即ち増肉操作が実行される。
【0026】
本実施例においては図2(C)に示すように、上パンチ6の第1リング状膨出部66の第1傾斜面66tは、プレス成形品13を介して下パンチ5の先端部5aの外縁部付近に対面している。
増肉操作の場合には、図2(A)〜(C)から理解できるように、上パンチ6の先端加圧面65のうち、最初に、第1リング状膨出部66がプレス成形品13を加圧する。従って筒状ボス部13aの周壁13fの上端部の材料肉には、径内方向の下方向に向く力FAが作用する。これによりにプレス成形品13の材料肉が径内方向の下方向に張り出し易くなる。
【0027】
この結果、図7(A)〜(C)に示す従来技術において成形品130の筒状ボス部130aの内壁面側に生じていた肉引けが低減される。
本実施例においては、第1リング状膨出部66は、プレス成形品13に向けて下方に膨出していると共に、図3から理解できるように第1リング状膨出部66は、第1リング面66sから径内方向に向かうにつれて上昇傾斜している第1傾斜面66tをもつ。故に、筒状ボス部13aの周壁13fの上端部の材料肉に、径内方向の下方向に向く力FAが作用し易くなり、これによりプレス成形品13の材料肉が径内方向の下方向に張り出し易くなる利点が得られる。
【0028】
ところで、上パンチ6の増肉操作を実行した状態においては、図2(D)に示ようにプレス成形品13の筒状ボス部13aの周壁13fの組織フローは、筒状ボス部13aの軸長方向に沿っているものの波形を呈している。据え込まれたからである。このように波形を呈すれば、組織フローが非波形で筒状ボス部13aの軸長方向に沿っている場合に比較して、筒状ボス部13aの周壁13fの異方性が低減され、周壁13fの強度確保に貢献できる。
【0029】
さらに本実施例においては、増肉操作の際には、下ダイ3の第2リング状膨出部36がプレス成形品13の筒状ボス部13aの周壁13fとフランジ部13dとの境界領域に位置しているため、プレス成形品13の筒状ボス部13aの周壁13fの下端部の材料肉が下方向に過剰に流動することが抑制される。この結果、図8(A)〜(C)に示す従来技術においてプレス成形品13の筒状ボス部13aとフランジ部13dとの境界領域に生じていた折れ込みが低減される。
【0030】
従って本実施例においては、プレス成形品13の据え込み増肉の際に欠陥の発生を抑制することができる。故にプレス成形品13の価格を低廉化しつつ、プレス成形品13の品質を確保するのに有利となる。本実施例においては、コスト高を誘発する鍛造工程を経ないため、価格の低廉化に有利となる。
さらに本実施例においては、図3に示すように第1リング状膨出部66は、水平に指向しているリング状をなす第1リング面66sと、第1リング面66sで包囲された第1傾斜面66tとをもつ。従って第1リング状膨出部66は鋭利な形状ではないため、鋭利な場合に比較して、上パンチ6の先端部分の耐久性、長寿命化を確保することができる。
【0031】
加えて本実施例においては、下パンチ5に形成されている第2リング状膨出部36は、第2リング面36sと、第2リング面36sから径外方向に延設された第2傾斜面36tとをもつ。従って第1リング状膨出部66は鋭利な形状ではないため、鋭利な場合に比較して、下パンチ5の耐久性、長寿命化を確保することができる。
【0032】
本実施例においては前述したように、第1リング状膨出部66および第2リング状膨出部36は互いに対面するような位置関係に設けられているため、プレス成形品13の筒状ボス部13aの周壁13fの据え込み増肉を効果的になし得る。
本実施例においては図3に付記したように、上パンチ6の第1リング状膨出部66において、第1リング面66sと第1傾斜面66tとの交点をWcとし、第1傾斜面66tと先端加圧面65との交点をWaとしたとき、交点Wcは径方向において下パンチ5の先端部5aの外壁面50よりも外周側に位置している。交点Waは径方向において下パンチ5の先端部5aの外壁面50近傍に位置している。故に第1傾斜面66tは下パンチ5の先端部5aの外縁5sに対面している。
【0033】
このような本実施例においては上記した交点Wcの外径D6は、下パンチ5の先端部5aの外壁面50の外径D8よりも大きく設定されている。交点Waの外径D7は、下パンチ5の先端部5aの外壁面50の外径D8に対してプラスマイナス20%程度に設定されている。このように寸法関係が設定されているため、プレス成形品13の筒状ボス部13aの周壁13fの据え込み増肉を効果的に行い得る。
【0034】
なお本実施例においては図2(C)(D)から理解できるように、第1リング状膨出部66によりプレス成形品13は強圧されるため、プレス成形品13の蓋部13cにリング状凹み部13rが形成される。しかし図4に示すようにプレス成形品13の最終使用段階においては、リング状凹み部13rを備えた蓋部13cは、打ち抜きプレス処理および切削処理の少なくとも一方により除去されるため、据え込み増肉の際にリング状凹み部13rが形成されても実用上支障がない。
【0035】
参考例)
参考例を図6(A)〜(C)に示す。参考例は第1実施例と基本的には同様の構成であり、従って同一機能を果たす部位には同一の符号が付される。
下第1実施例と相違する部分を中心として、参考例について説明を加える。
【0036】
前記した第1実施例においては下ダイ3の下パンチ挿入孔32の上面開口32kの内縁部に上向きに膨出する第2リング状膨出部36が形成されていたが、参考例では第2リング状膨出部36が形成されていない。この点が第1実施例と異なる部位である。
さて参考例においては増肉操作の際には、第1実施例と同様に、図6(A)から理解できるように、下ダイ3の被加圧面30にプレス成形品13のフランジ面を載せてセットする。このとき下ダイ3の第2リング状膨出部36がプレス成形品13の筒状ボス部13aとフランジ部13dとの境界領域に位置している。そして図6(A)に示すように、上ダイ4を矢印Y1方向に下降させて上ダイ4の加圧面40と下ダイ3の被加圧面30とでプレス成形品13のフランジ部13dを挟んだ状態で、上ダイ4および下ダイ3を下パンチ5に対して矢印Y1方向に相対的に共に下降させる。
【0037】
上ダイ4および下ダイ3が共に下降した状態は、図6(B)に示されている。図6(B)に示ように、プレス成形品13の筒状ボス部13aの孔13p内に下パンチ5の先端部5aが進入している。このように下パンチ5の先端部5aが進入した状態においては、下パンチ5の先端面51はプレス成形品13の筒状ボス部13aの蓋部13cに接近して対面していると共に、下パンチ5の外壁面50はプレス成形品13の筒状ボス部13aの内壁面13kに対面している。
【0038】
このように進入操作を実行した後に、図6(C)に示すように、上パンチ6が矢印Y1方向に下降する。下降した上パンチ6に下パンチ5は加圧され、下パンチ5も矢印Y1方向に下降する。このとき上パンチ6の下降量よりも下パンチ5の下降量は小さい。
従って図6(C)に示ように、プレス成形品13の筒状ボス部13aを構成する周壁13fは据え込まれる。従って、プレス成形品13の筒状ボス部13aの周壁13fの軸長寸法が短縮すると共に、プレス成形品13の筒状ボス部13aの周壁13fがこれの厚み方向に増肉される。即ち増肉操作が実行される。
【0039】
この場合には、図6(A)〜(C)から理解できるように、上パンチ6の先端加圧面65のうち、最初に、第1リング状膨出部66がプレス成形品13を加圧する。従って筒状ボス部13aの上端部の材料肉には、径内方向の下方向に向く力FAが作用する。これによりにプレス成形品13の周壁13fの材料肉が径内方向の下方向に張り出し易くなる。この結果、図7(A)〜(C)に示す従来技術において成形品130の筒状ボス部130aの内壁面側に生じていた肉引けが低減または回避される。故にプレス成形品13の価格を低廉化しつつ、プレス成形品13の品質を確保するのに有利となる。
【0040】
上パンチ6の増肉操作を実行した状態においては、図6(D)に示ようにプレス成形品13の筒状ボス部13aを構成する周壁13fの組織フローは、筒状ボス部13aの軸長方向に沿っているものの波形を呈している。据え込まれたからである。このように波形を呈すれば、組織フローが非波形で筒状ボス部13aの軸長方向に沿っている場合に比較して、筒状ボス部13aの異方性が低減される。
【0041】
(比較例)
図9は比較例1を示す。図9(A)は据え込み増肉前の状態を示す。図9(B)は据え込み増肉後の状態を示す。比較例1においては、互いに別体をなす下ダイ3と下パンチ5とは設けられている。しかし第1実施例および第2実施例とは異なり、上ダイ4と上パンチ6とを一体化した上型装置4Hが採用されている。比較例1においては一体化構造をもつ上型装置4Hが採用されているため、据え込み後の状態では、図9(B)に示すように上型装置4Hの加圧面40とプレス成形品13のフランジ部13dとの間には隙間が形成されないものの、据え込み増肉前の状態では図9(A)に示すように上型装置4Hの加圧面40とプレス成形品13のフランジ面13cとの間には隙間S100が形成される。このような比較例1においては、図9(B)に示すように据え込み増肉後のプレス成形品13には捲くれ込みが発生し易い。
【0042】
図10は比較例2を示す。図10(A)は据え込み増肉前の状態を示す。図10(B)は据え込み増肉後の状態を示す。比較例2においては、互いに別体をなす上ダイ4と上パンチ6とは設けられている。しかし前記した第1実施例とは異なり、下ダイ3と下パンチ5とを一体化した下型装置3Hが採用されている。
【0043】
比較例2においては一体化構造をもつ下型装置3Hが採用されているため、据え込み後の状態では、図10(B)に示すように下型装置3Hの先端面5Hとプレス成形品13の蓋部13cとの間には隙間が実質的には形成されないものの、据え込み増肉前の状態では図10(A)に示すように下型装置3Hの先端面5Hとプレス成形品13の蓋部13Cとの間には隙間S200が形成される。このような比較例2においては、図10(B)に示すように据え込み後のプレス成形品13の蓋部13cには捲くれ込みが発生し易い。
【0044】
これに対して第1実施例においては、上型装置は上ダイ4と上パンチ6とに分割されていると共に、下型装置は下ダイ3と下パンチ5とに分割されているため、上記した比較例1,比較例2で発生していた捲くれ込みを抑制するのに有利となる。
(他の実施例)
そのほか本発明は上記し且つ図面に示した実施例のみに限定されるものではなく、必要に応じて適宜変更して実施できるものである。

Thus, the preliminary press-molded product 12 having the bulging portion 12a in the central region is molded. Further, the press-formed product 13 having a metal cup shape shown in FIG. 1C is formed by drawing the pre-press-formed product 12 by press working. Therefore, the press-formed product 13 has not undergone a forging process that induces high costs regardless of before and after the press-thickening operation according to the present embodiment.
[0014]
As shown in FIG. 1 (C), the press-formed product 13 is extended in a radially outward direction from a cylindrical boss portion 13a having a substantially cylindrical shape having a hole 10p and an end of a peripheral wall 13f of the cylindrical boss portion 13a. And a wide flange portion 13d. In the press-formed product 13, the thickness of the cylindrical boss portion 13a is thinner than the flange portion 13d due to drawing. In some cases, when the thickness of the plate body 10 is T1, the thickness T2 of the peripheral wall 13f of the cylindrical boss portion 13a of the press-formed product 13 may be 50% or less of T1. The main object of the present embodiment is to increase the thickness of the thinned peripheral wall 13f of the cylindrical boss portion 13a.
[0015]
FIG. 2 shows a press thickening device 2 used in conjunction with the operation to be performed. This press-thickening device 2 includes a metal lower die 3 and a metal upper die 4, a metal lower punch 5, and a metal upper punch 6 that are placed facing each other. I have.
The upper die 4 is held together with an upper punch 6 on a lifting / lowering body (not shown) provided so as to be movable up and down in the press molding apparatus, and can be moved up and down.
[0016]
The upper die 4 has a pressing surface 40 that forms a horizontal flat surface facing downward. The lower die 3 has a pressed surface 30 that forms a horizontal flat surface facing the pressing surface 40 of the upper die 4. The lower die 3 is mounted on an unillustrated base together with the lower punch 5.
The lower die 3 can function as an outer die. The lower die 3 is formed with a lower punch insertion hole 32 having a circular cross section in the vertical direction. A lower punch 5 that can function as an inner punch is inserted into the lower punch insertion hole 32 of the lower die 3 so as to be able to move up and down relatively. The outer diameter of the front end portion 5 a of the lower punch 5 corresponds to the inner diameter of the cylindrical boss portion 13 a of the press-formed product 13.
[0017]
Therefore, the tip 5a of the lower punch 5 can enter the cylindrical boss 13a of the press-formed product 13. Pm represents the central axis of the lower punch insertion hole 32 of the lower die 3. Pm is also the central axis of the lower punch 5 and the upper punch 6.
The upper die 4 is formed with an upper punch insertion hole 42 having a circular cross section in the vertical direction. The hole diameter of the upper punch insertion hole 42 corresponds to the outer diameter of the cylindrical boss portion 13 a of the press-formed product 13. Accordingly, the upper punch insertion hole 42 can be fitted with the cylindrical boss 13 a of the press-formed product 13. The hole diameter D1 of the upper punch insertion hole 42 is larger than the hole diameter D2 of the lower punch insertion hole 32.
[0018]
An upper punch 6 having a circular cross section that can function as an inner punch is inserted into the upper punch insertion hole 42 of the upper die 4 so as to be relatively movable up and down. On the lower end surface of the upper punch 6, a tip pressurizing surface 65 that can face the lid portion 13c of the cylindrical boss portion 13a of the press-formed product 13 is formed.
A first ring-shaped bulging portion 66 is formed on the outer edge portion of the tip pressing surface 65 of the upper punch 6 so as to go around the upper punch 6 once. The first ring-shaped bulging portion 66 bulges downward toward the press-formed product 13 and, as can be understood from FIG. 2A, the ring-shaped projection shaft end surface of the peripheral wall 13f of the cylindrical boss portion 13a. It is possible to face 13x.
[0019]
FIG. 3 shows a cross section of the upper punch 6. As shown in FIG. 3, the first ring-shaped bulging portion 66 includes a first ring surface 66s having a ring shape that is horizontally oriented, and a first inclined surface having a ring shape surrounded by the first ring surface 66s. 66t. The first inclined surface 66t is inclined upward from the first ring surface 66s toward the radially inward direction (arrow M1 direction).
[0020]
FIG. 5 shows the vicinity of the main part of the lower die 3. As shown in FIG. 5, in the present embodiment, a second ring-shaped bulging portion 36 that bulges upward is formed at the inner edge portion of the upper surface opening 32 k of the lower punch insertion hole 32 of the lower die 3. The second ring-shaped bulging portion 36 makes a round around the lower punch insertion hole 32. The second ring-shaped bulging portion 36 has a second ring surface 36s and a second inclined surface 36t extending from the second ring surface 36s in the radially outward direction. The second inclined surface 36t is inclined downward from the second ring surface 36s toward the radially outward direction (arrow M2 direction).
[0021]
As shown in FIGS. 2A to 2C, the first ring-shaped bulging portion 66 and the second ring-shaped bulging portion 36 are positioned so as to substantially face each other via the press-formed product 13. Is provided. Here, the first ring-shaped bulging portion 66 is located above the second ring-shaped bulging portion 36.
In the present embodiment, during the thickness increasing operation, as can be understood from FIG. 2A, the flange portion 13d of the press-formed product 13 is placed on the pressed surface 30 of the lower die 3 and set. At this time, the second ring-shaped bulging portion 36 of the lower die 3 is located in a boundary region between the cylindrical boss portion 13a and the flange portion 13d of the press-formed product 13.
[0022]
Then, as shown in FIG. 2A, the upper die 4 is lowered in the direction of arrow Y1, and the pressurizing surface 40 of the upper die 4 and the pressed surface 30 of the lower die 3 sandwich the flange portion 13d of the press-formed product 13. The upper die 4 and the lower die 3 are further lowered relative to the lower punch 5 in the arrow Y1 direction while the flange portion 13d is constrained. From the state shown in FIG. 2A, the lowering amount of the upper die 4 and the lowering amount of the lower die 3 are substantially the same.
[0023]
A state where both the upper die 4 and the lower die 3 are lowered is shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 2 (B), the tip 5a of the lower punch 5 enters the hole 13p of the cylindrical boss 13a of the press-formed product 13.
Thus, in the state where the front end portion 5a of the lower punch 5 has entered, the front end surface 51 of the lower punch 5 is in contact with the lid portion 13c of the cylindrical boss portion 13a of the press-formed product 13 as shown in FIG. The outer wall surface 50 of the lower punch 5 faces the inner wall surface 13k of the cylindrical boss portion 13a of the press-formed product 13 while facing each other. Further, the outer wall surface 13 h of the cylindrical boss portion 13 a of the press-formed product 13 faces the inner wall surface 42 m of the upper punch insertion hole 42 of the upper die 4.
[0024]
After the entry operation is performed as described above, the upper punch 6 is lowered in the direction of the arrow Y1, as shown in FIG. At this time, the lower punch 5 is pressed against the upper punch 6 that has been lowered, and the lower punch 5 is also lowered in conjunction with the arrow Y1 direction. In order to secure the upsetting amount of the cylindrical boss portion 13a in the axial length direction, the lowering amount of the lower punch 5 is set smaller than the lowering amount of the upper punch 6.
[0025]
Therefore, as shown in FIG. 2C, the peripheral wall 13f of the cylindrical boss portion 13a of the press-formed product 13 is installed. Therefore, the axial length of the peripheral wall 13f of the cylindrical boss portion 13a of the press-formed product 13 is shortened, and the material meat of the peripheral wall 13f of the cylindrical boss portion 13a bulges in the radial direction as the shortening occurs. Thereby, the peripheral wall 13f of the cylindrical boss part 13a of the press-formed product 13 is thickened in the thickness direction thereof. That is, a thickening operation is performed.
[0026]
In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2C, the first inclined surface 66 t of the first ring-shaped bulging portion 66 of the upper punch 6 is formed on the tip 5 a of the lower punch 5 via the press-formed product 13. It faces the vicinity of the outer edge.
In the case of the thickening operation, as can be understood from FIGS. 2A to 2C, first, the first ring-shaped bulging portion 66 of the tip pressing surface 65 of the upper punch 6 is the press-formed product 13. Pressurize. Accordingly, a force FA directed downward in the radial inner direction acts on the material meat at the upper end portion of the peripheral wall 13f of the cylindrical boss portion 13a. As a result, the material meat of the press-formed product 13 is likely to protrude downward in the radial inner direction.
[0027]
As a result, the shrinkage caused on the inner wall surface side of the cylindrical boss portion 130a of the molded product 130 in the prior art shown in FIGS. 7A to 7C is reduced.
In the present embodiment, the first ring-shaped bulging portion 66 bulges downward toward the press-formed product 13 and, as can be understood from FIG. It has the 1st inclined surface 66t which inclines ascending from the ring surface 66s toward the radial inner direction. Therefore, a force FA directed downward in the radial direction is likely to act on the material meat at the upper end portion of the peripheral wall 13f of the cylindrical boss portion 13a, whereby the material meat of the press-formed product 13 is directed downward in the radial direction. The advantage that it is easy to project is obtained.
[0028]
By the way, in the state where the thickening operation of the upper punch 6 is executed, as shown in FIG. 2D, the tissue flow of the peripheral wall 13f of the cylindrical boss portion 13a of the press-formed product 13 is It shows the waveform along the long direction. Because it was put up. If the corrugated shape is exhibited in this way, the anisotropy of the peripheral wall 13f of the cylindrical boss portion 13a is reduced compared to the case where the tissue flow is non-corrugated and along the axial length direction of the cylindrical boss portion 13a. This can contribute to securing the strength of the peripheral wall 13f.
[0029]
Further, in this embodiment, during the thickening operation, the second ring-shaped bulging portion 36 of the lower die 3 is located in the boundary region between the peripheral wall 13f of the cylindrical boss portion 13a of the press-formed product 13 and the flange portion 13d. Since it is located, it is suppressed that the material meat | flesh of the lower end part of the surrounding wall 13f of the cylindrical boss | hub part 13a of the press molded product 13 flows excessively downward. As a result, the folding that has occurred in the boundary region between the cylindrical boss portion 13a and the flange portion 13d of the press-formed product 13 in the prior art shown in FIGS. 8A to 8C is reduced.
[0030]
Therefore, in the present embodiment, the occurrence of defects can be suppressed when the press-formed product 13 is upset. Therefore, it is advantageous to ensure the quality of the press-formed product 13 while reducing the price of the press-formed product 13. In the present embodiment, since a forging process that induces high costs is not performed, it is advantageous in reducing the price.
Furthermore, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, the first ring-shaped bulging portion 66 is surrounded by a first ring surface 66s having a ring shape that is horizontally oriented and a first ring surface 66s. 1 inclined surface 66t. Accordingly, since the first ring-shaped bulging portion 66 is not a sharp shape, it is possible to ensure the durability and long life of the tip portion of the upper punch 6 as compared with a sharp case.
[0031]
In addition, in the present embodiment, the second ring-shaped bulging portion 36 formed on the lower punch 5 includes a second ring surface 36s and a second inclined surface extending radially outward from the second ring surface 36s. A surface 36t. Accordingly, since the first ring-shaped bulging portion 66 is not a sharp shape, it is possible to ensure the durability and long life of the lower punch 5 as compared with a sharp case.
[0032]
In the present embodiment, as described above, the first ring-shaped bulging portion 66 and the second ring-shaped bulging portion 36 are provided in a positional relationship so as to face each other. It is possible to effectively increase the thickness of the peripheral wall 13f of the portion 13a.
In the present embodiment, as described in FIG. 3, in the first ring-shaped bulging portion 66 of the upper punch 6, the intersection of the first ring surface 66s and the first inclined surface 66t is Wc, and the first inclined surface 66t. When the intersection point between the front end pressure surface 65 and Wa is defined as Wa, the intersection point Wc is located on the outer peripheral side of the outer wall surface 50 of the front end portion 5a of the lower punch 5 in the radial direction. The intersection point Wa is positioned in the vicinity of the outer wall surface 50 of the tip portion 5a of the lower punch 5 in the radial direction. Therefore, the first inclined surface 66 t faces the outer edge 5 s of the tip portion 5 a of the lower punch 5.
[0033]
In this embodiment, the outer diameter D6 of the intersection Wc is set larger than the outer diameter D8 of the outer wall surface 50 of the tip 5a of the lower punch 5. The outer diameter D7 of the intersection Wa is set to about plus or minus 20% with respect to the outer diameter D8 of the outer wall surface 50 of the tip 5a of the lower punch 5. Since the dimensional relationship is set in this way, it is possible to effectively increase the thickness of the peripheral wall 13f of the cylindrical boss portion 13a of the press-formed product 13.
[0034]
In this embodiment, as can be understood from FIGS. 2C and 2D, since the press-formed product 13 is strongly pressed by the first ring-shaped bulging portion 66, a ring-like shape is formed on the lid portion 13c of the press-formed product 13. A recess 13r is formed. However, as shown in FIG. 4, in the final use stage of the press-formed product 13, the lid 13 c provided with the ring-shaped recess 13 r is removed by at least one of the punching press process and the cutting process. In this case, there is no practical problem even if the ring-shaped recess 13r is formed.
[0035]
  (referenceExample)
  referenceAn example is shown in FIGS.referenceThe example basically has the same configuration as the first embodiment, and therefore, the same reference numerals are given to the parts performing the same function.The
Less thanFocusing on the differences from the first embodiment below,referenceAn explanation will be added about the example.
[0036]
  In the first embodiment described above, the second ring-shaped bulging portion 36 that bulges upward is formed at the inner edge portion of the upper surface opening 32k of the lower punch insertion hole 32 of the lower die 3.referenceIn the example, the second ring-shaped bulging portion 36 is not formed. This point is different from the first embodiment.
  NowreferenceIn the example, in the case of the thickening operation, the flange surface of the press-formed product 13 is set on the pressed surface 30 of the lower die 3 as can be understood from FIG. To do. At this time, the second ring-shaped bulging portion 36 of the lower die 3 is located in a boundary region between the cylindrical boss portion 13a and the flange portion 13d of the press-formed product 13. Then, as shown in FIG. 6A, the upper die 4 is lowered in the direction of the arrow Y1, and the pressing surface 40 of the upper die 4 and the pressed surface 30 of the lower die 3 sandwich the flange portion 13d of the press-formed product 13. In this state, the upper die 4 and the lower die 3 are both lowered relative to the lower punch 5 in the direction of the arrow Y1.
[0037]
A state in which the upper die 4 and the lower die 3 are both lowered is shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 6B, the tip 5a of the lower punch 5 enters the hole 13p of the cylindrical boss 13a of the press-formed product 13. Thus, in the state where the front end portion 5a of the lower punch 5 has entered, the front end surface 51 of the lower punch 5 faces the lid portion 13c of the cylindrical boss portion 13a of the press-formed product 13 and faces the lower portion. The outer wall surface 50 of the punch 5 faces the inner wall surface 13k of the cylindrical boss portion 13a of the press-formed product 13.
[0038]
After the entry operation is executed in this way, the upper punch 6 is lowered in the direction of the arrow Y1, as shown in FIG. 6C. The lower punch 5 is pressurized by the lowered upper punch 6, and the lower punch 5 is also lowered in the direction of the arrow Y1. At this time, the lowering amount of the lower punch 5 is smaller than the lowering amount of the upper punch 6.
Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 6C, the peripheral wall 13f constituting the cylindrical boss portion 13a of the press-formed product 13 is installed. Accordingly, the axial length of the peripheral wall 13f of the cylindrical boss portion 13a of the press-formed product 13 is shortened, and the peripheral wall 13f of the cylindrical boss portion 13a of the press-formed product 13 is increased in thickness.
