Press-formed product manufacturing method and forming die
A pressing step of forming a press-formed product includes: a primary formed product forming step of forming a primary formed product having an intermediate wall portion which will be a part of a convex-side wall part, and an intermediate flange continuous with the intermediate wall portion; and a secondary formed product forming step of forming a secondary formed product having a wall part which will be the convex-side wall part by extending at least a portion, on the intermediate wall portion side, of the intermediate flange formed in the primary formed product forming step such that the portion is aligned with the intermediate wall portion. In the primary formed product forming step, the intermediate wall portion is formed such that a boundary valley line between the intermediate wall portion and the intermediate flange is deeper at a large-curvature section than at a small-curvature section.
1. A forming die capable of being used in forming of a press-formed product by pressing, the press-formed product having an apex part curved along a longitudinal direction in a plan view, a convex-side sidewall portion provided to be continuous with a convexly curved side of the apex part, and a flange provided to be continuous with the convex-side sidewall portion, the forming die comprising:
a sidewall portion formation surface concavely curved along the longitudinal direction in the plan view and configured to form the convex-side sidewall portion; and
a flange formation surface provided to be continuous with the sidewall portion formation surface and configured to form the flange,
wherein a height of a boundary ridge line between the sidewall portion formation surface and the flange formation surface at a large-curvature section is larger than a height of the boundary ridge line at a small-curvature section.
2. The forming die according to claim 1 , wherein the boundary ridge line gradually slants from the large-curvature section toward the small-curvature section.
