摘要:
The present invention provides a metal forming system, comprising a platform and a gantry means, in which the platform is provided with a plurality of lower mold bases bearing sheet metals, while the gantry means is provided with at least one upper mold base and a toggle unit. The gantry means is performing lateral displacement on the platform, so as to be displaced to a location above the lower mold base which is predetermined to operate. The toggle unit is for adjusting the longitudinal position of the upper mold base so as to change the distance between the upper mold base and the lower mold base, resulting in determining whether a mold-closing state or a mold-opening state. A metal forming operation is performed on the sheet metal between the upper mold base and the lower mold base so as to manufacture a metal formed part when the mold-closing state.

An apparatus for hydraulic high-pressure forming of a sheet, the apparatus having a top tool and a bottom tool as well as at least one pressure generating unit arranged between the press ram of a mechanical press and the top tool and uses a pressurized medium from the pressure generating unit as a working fluid for hydraulic preforming of the sheet. Contact faces of the tools directly engage with the sheet surface along the clamping area thereof and act to seal off the forming area that are subjected to the working fluid solely by contact sealing.

For forming or consolidating organic matrix composites, for example, an organic matrix composite panel is sealed between sheets of a susceptor material that is susceptible to induction heating. The susceptor sheets are heated inductively. The sheets in turn conduct heat to the organic matrix composite panel. When heated to the desired temperature, the composite panel is consolidated and/or formed. In the present invention, the susceptor sheets are selected so that their magnetic permeability decreases to unity at approximately the desired operating temperature thereby limiting heating to this "Curie temperature" and providing substantial uniformity of temperature in the panel. Of course, the concept applies to other induction heating operations for metals including SPF, brazing, annealing, heat treating, bonding, hot pressing, and the like.

An impervious metal sheet is placed on top of a pair of flat grid blanks which are clamped together at their edges. An elastic sheet contacts the bottom grid blank, and a second impervious metal sheet is inserted between the two grid blanks if the grids have high percentage open areas. All of the blanks and sheets are dished simultaneously by forcing fluid to inflate the elastic sheet. The dished grids are also stress relieved simultaneously.

A sheet metal blank is clamped between opposed annular members and deformed in its central area by fluid pressure applied thereto. The clamping members are urged together by the same fluid pressure; and to this end, one of the clamping members is mushroom-shaped with the head of the mushroom comprising a piston urged in a clamping direction by fluid pressure applied by an annular cylinder chamber that communicates with a central chamber whose fluid deforms the blank. In this way, the annular marginal portions of the blank are tightly gripped and only the central exposed portion of the blank is deformed.

A fluid-dynamic press, in particular a hydraulic press, for the cold forming of sheet metal of thin thickness wherein the pressure application means acts directly upon the work piece, comprising a means for providing a packing on the pressure side of the work piece positioned to cooperate with an annular holding plate associated with a plurality of hydraulic clamping pistons on the opposite side of the workpiece, said holding plate and hydraulic clamping pistons being mounted in a removable die body mounted in the press and an integral part of the die. Consequently, the workpiece holding means and sealing means are specifically designed to fit each die body employed.

A fixture for forming heating elements of the dimpled plate type includes a flat piston plate carried on an inflatable bag for uniformly supporting an envelope made of metal sheets sealed together around their edges during inflation of the envelope. The envelope is positioned between two studded plates for restraining opposed portions of the sheets against separation as the envelope expands under internal hydraulic pressure. An upper portion of the fixture is mounted on a movable carriage so that the envelope can be placed in the fixture by loading from above.

The stamping of a sheet material is accomplished by forcing a liquid against it in such manner that it is formed to the shape of a mold or die element. Use of a liquid produces an even distribution of force against the sheet material and thus reduces breakage while overcoming the need for repetitive stamping in order to obtain complex shapes.
