Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for hydroforming a workpiece according to the preamble of claim 1 and a device for carrying out the method according to the preamble of claim 7.
- a generic method or a generic device is known from DE 94 07 812.2 U1.
- a hollow profile forming the workpiece is inserted into an internal high-pressure forming tool that is divided along the extent of the hollow profile, after which it is closed.
- the hollow profile is then sealed at both ends by an axial ram.
- the interior of the hollow profile is filled using the axial plunger.
- the axial rams are fluidly connected to a pressure generator.
- An internal high pressure is then applied within the hollow profile by means of the pressure generator, as a result of which the latter is expanded until it bears against the wall of the tool engraving.
- the tool engraving has a branch which radially leads away from the hollow profile extension and into which the hollow profile material is displaced by the application of high internal pressure to form a neck.
- the material attaches to the branch wall.
- the process on the inside of the branch is stabilized by a counter slide that is slidably guided in the branch and supports the necking in the end area.
- an additional axial force which is caused by retracting the axial pel is applied, hollow profile material is pushed to the branch point, whereby the thinning of the material responsible for bursting in the branch area is at least partially compensated.
- the invention is based on the object of developing a generic method and a generic device in such a way that the process reliability in the internal high pressure forming of workpieces is improved.
- the invention achieves an improved shaping of workpieces made of materials with low deformability.
- the amplitude and frequency of the pressure oscillation must be adapted accordingly, taking into account the workpiece material and the degree of forming of the shape to be achieved, i.e. the geometry of the finished formed workpiece or other relevant process parameters.
- FIG. 1 schematically shows the device according to the invention in a lateral longitudinal section
- Fig. 2 in a pressure-time diagram schematically the course of the pressure vibration generated with the device of Fig. L.
- FIG. 1 shows a device 1 for the internal high-pressure forming of a hollow-profile-shaped workpiece 2, the device 1 including an internal high-pressure forming tool 3 which is formed in two parts.
- the division plane 4 of the forming tool 3 consisting of an upper tool 5 and a lower tool 6 runs along the longitudinal extent of the workpiece 2.
- a branch 7 is formed in the upper tool 5, in which a counter-holder 8 is displaceably guided.
- the tubular workpiece 2 is in one of the upper tool 5 and lower witness 6 formed cavity, the engraving 9 added.
- the forming tool 3 is in the closed position.
- the workpiece 2 is sealed at both ends by axial punches 10 and 11, both axial punches 10 and 11 being tracked during the shaping to maintain the tightness in accordance with the expansion-related shortening of the pipe. It is conceivable that an additional axially acting force (in the direction of the arrow) is exerted on the pipe ends 12 and 13 via the axial rams 10 and 11, as a result of which material of the hollow profile is extended to the Au extension, here the branch 7.
- the counter-holder 8 supports (in the direction of the arrow) the neck 14 formed in the branch 7 in a controlled manner and thus prevents the hollow profile from thinning the workpiece material there quickly because of the risk of cracking.
- the workpiece 2 is filled via an inlet bore 15 at least in the axial ram 11.
- a feed line 16 is connected to the inlet bore 15, via which the hydraulic pressure fluid is introduced into the workpiece 2 and which leads to a pressure fluid generation system.
- This is designed as a reciprocating piston engine. Its piston 19 is moved back and forth during operation, as a result of which it periodically acts on the liquid column in the fluid line 17 in the form of a sine curve.
- the pressure oscillation generated in this way is superimposed on the delivery pressure which is delivered essentially continuously via the pressure generator. Continuously means here that the pressure curve of the delivery pressure of the pressure intensifier is constant.
- the internal high pressure is also introduced in the form of a pressure oscillation into the cavity 20 of the workpiece 2, which is widened and bears against the engraving 9 of the forming tool 3.
- the internal high pressure p ⁇ with the forming time t depends on the process now increased in the form of a vibration. This results in areas 23 of reduced pressure between the maxima 21 of the pressure curve 22, so that the friction of the hollow profile being formed on the engraving 9 is reduced in these time intervals.
- the pressure oscillation is low-frequency and can preferably have a frequency in the range 0 ⁇ v ⁇ 50 Hz, which particularly favors the deformation. However, higher frequencies of up to several hundred or a thousand hertz are also possible.
- the assembly of the device for generating the oscillating internal high pressure is designed by separately known inexpensive system components, a fluid line 17 only having to be connected to the usual delivery line 16 and a piston engine having to be integrated into it.
- the pressure generator itself as a pressure vibration exciter 18 instead of the separately arranged reciprocating piston engine, the pressure booster piston being driven in an oscillating manner in accordance with the piston 19 of the reciprocating piston engine.
- the separate fluid line 17 can be dispensed with in a structurally simplified manner, wherein there is now no superimposition of two pressure profiles, since the pressure generator applies the internal pressure in the form of a vibration.
- the pressure vibration exciter 18 is integrated into the fluid delivery line 16 between the pressure generator and workpiece 2, with the fluid line 17 being eliminated.
- the pressure vibration exciter 18 can also be designed as a driven unbalanced mass, for example a vibrating element, or as a piezo element and as an actuator. The latter two configurations are small and advantageously have the possibility of very finely tunable vibration excitation which responds quickly to specific changes.
- the workpiece 2 is not limited to the formation of a hollow profile, but can also be formed by two superposed boards.
