Manufacturing method and manufacturing apparatus of press-formed body
View Patent ↗A press-formed body ( 15 ) made of a high-tensile strength steel sheet of 390 MPa or more including a groove bottom part ( 15 a ), ridge line parts ( 15 b, 15 b ) continuous to the groove bottom part ( 15 a ), and side wall parts ( 15 c, 15 c ) continuous to the ridge line parts ( 15 b, 15 b ), and in which an outward flange ( 16 ) is formed at an end part in a longitudinal direction is manufactured by a press-forming apparatus including a punch ( 11 ), a die ( 12 ), and a pad ( 14 ) which presses and binds a press-forming material ( 13 ) to the punch ( 11 ), thereby forming the press-formed body ( 15 ) without providing cutouts at a ridge line part flange portion of the outward flange, or generating lowering of material yield.
1. A manufacturing method of a press-formed body comprising a high-tensile strength steel sheet of 390 MPa or more having a groove-shaped cross section, the groove-shaped cross section comprising a groove bottom part; at least two ridge line parts, each one of the at least two ridge line parts being adjacent to an end portion of the groove bottom part; and at least two side wall parts, each one of the at least two side wall parts being adjacent to one of the at least two ridge line parts; the manufacturing method comprising:
a first step of performing the press-forming while the pad presses (a) and (b) to the punch:
(a) a portion of areas of the press-forming material, which are to be formed into each of the at least two ridge line parts,
(b) a different area of the press-forming material, which is to be formed into the grove bottom part,
wherein (a) is in the vicinity of an outward flange, and has a predetermined length of a cross-sectional peripheral length starting at connecting parts which connect each of the at least two ridge line parts to the groove bottom part, wherein the outward flange is formed across the at least two ridge line parts, and is further formed in at least one end part in a longitudinal direction of the pressed-formed body, and wherein the press-forming is performed by a press-forming apparatus which includes a punch, a die, and a pad which presses the press-forming material to the punch; and
a second step of performing press-forming of other areas of the press-forming material so as to form parts of the press-formed body which are not formed by the first step,
wherein cutouts are not formed or provided at any portion of the at least two ridge line parts that are in the vicinity of the outward flange, or at any portion of the outward flange.
2. The manufacturing method of the press-formed body according to claim 1 ,
wherein said predetermined length of a cross-sectional peripheral length is one-third or more of the cross-sectional peripheral length, and
wherein the pad presses said one-third or more of the cross-sectional peripheral length.
3. The manufacturing method of the press-formed body according to claim 1 ,
wherein the pad presses the portion of the press-forming material to be formed into the at least two ridge line parts within a predetermined range from a root part of the outward flange in a longitudinal direction.
4. The manufacturing method of the press-formed body according to claim 1 ,
wherein the groove-shaped cross section further comprises curved parts continuous to the at least two side wall parts, and additional flanges continuous to the curved parts.
5. The manufacturing method of the press-formed body according to claim 1 ,
wherein the press-forming is bend-forming.
6. The manufacturing method of the press-formed body according to claim 1 ,
wherein the press-forming is drawing.
7. The manufacturing method of the press-formed body according to claim 1 , wherein, in the first step, the groove bottom part, a portion of the at least two ridge line parts, a portion of the at least two side wall parts, and the outward flange are formed, and, in the second step, a remaining portion of the at least two ridge line parts and a remaining part of the at least two side wall parts, not formed in the first step, are formed.
8. The manufacturing method of the press-formed body according to claim 1 , wherein:
the punch and the pad move relative to the die; and
the punch and the pad move in the same direction, and towards the die.
9. A manufacturing apparatus for manufacturing a press-formed body, the press-formed body comprising a high-tensile strength steel sheet of 390 MPa or more having a groove-shaped cross section, the groove-shaped cross section comprising a groove bottom part; at least two ridge line parts, each one of the at least two ridge line parts being adjacent to an end portion of the groove bottom part; and at least two side wall parts, each one of the at least two side wall parts being adjacent to one of the at least two ridge line parts; the manufacturing apparatus comprising:
a punch;
a die; and
a pad which presses a press-forming material to the punch,
wherein the pad presses (a) and (b) to the punch, wherein (a) is a portion of areas of the press-forming material, which are to be formed into each of the at least two ridge line parts, and (b) is a different area of the press-forming material, which is to be formed into the groove bottom part;
wherein (a) is in the vicinity of an outward flange, and has a predetermined length of a cross-sectional peripheral length starting at connecting parts which connect each of the at least two ridge line parts to the groove bottom part, wherein the outward flange is formed across the at least two ridge line parts, and is further formed in at least one end part in a longitudinal direction of the pressed-formed body;
wherein the punch and the pad move relative to the die,
wherein the punch and the pad move in the same parallel direction, and towards the die; and
wherein cutouts are not formed or provided at any portion of the at least two ridge line parts that are in the vicinity of the outward flange, or at any portion of the outward flange.
10. The manufacturing apparatus of the press-formed body according to claim 9 ,
wherein said predetermined length of a cross-sectional peripheral length is one-third or more of the cross-sectional peripheral length, and
wherein the pad has a shape pressing said one-third or more of the cross-sectional peripheral length.
