Publication number: 20230182189Abstract: A press forming tool is configured to form a press forming part including: a top portion having a convex and concave outer edge part; and a flange portion. The press forming tool includes: an upper die and a lower die; and a lower pad and an upper pad, which sandwich a blank in cooperation with the upper die and the lower die, in which, during an initial stage of forming, the flange portion is formed on the convex outer edge part, and a torsional shape portion having a torsional shape toward the concave outer edge part is formed continuously from the flange portion, and during a late stage of forming, the torsional shape portion is formed into the flange portion, and the flange portion is formed in the concave outer edge part so as to achieve formation of a target shape.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 8, 2021Publication date: June 15, 2023Applicant: JFE STEEL CORPORATIONInventor: Ryo AGEBA

Patent number: 11376645Abstract: Provided is a sheet material press forming method of press forming a formed part including a top portion with a protrusion having a blockage protrusive shape, the method including: preforming a high-strength steel sheet; and then forming it into a target shape without fractures or wrinkles, which is achieved by determining a shape in the preforming by press forming analysis according to the following steps: S1: the region of the protrusion having the target shape is discretized into two-dimensional elements and nodes for finite element analysis; and S2: the discretized portion are applied with internal stress in the normal directions of the two-dimensional elements from the inside of the discretized portion and deformed under the following conditions: (a) the two-dimensional elements are deformed within an elastic deformation range; and (b) adjacent ones of the two-dimensional elements have an angle therebetween which is free to change.Type: GrantFiled: September 12, 2018Date of Patent: July 5, 2022Assignee: JFE STEEL CORPORATIONInventors: Ryo Ageba, Akinobu Ishiwatari
