摘要:
The number of sub-parts of a closed structure part and the number of steps for manufacturing the closed structure part can be reduced and, therefore, the closed structure part can be efficiently manufactured. In a hemming press step, a punch is further lowered, and a pair of flange portions is inserted into a slit clearance. Hemming prongs are bent and each of the hemming prongs sandwiches the flange portion. The flange portion, which is one of the two flange portions, is joined to the other flange portion. At the same time, a pair of press forming surfaces of the punch presses a metal plate and performs press-forming on a pair of shoulder portions of a blank into a predetermined shape. The flange portion can be fixed to the other flange portion using the hemming prongs. The pair of shoulder portions of the blank can be press-formed into the predetermined shape.

摘要:
A method for manufacturing a closed structure part has a closed section using a blank made from a metal plate by pressing the blank using a press forming die and fixing a pair of joint ends of the blank to each other, the method including a pre-forming step of processing the blank into an interim part having a closed section corresponding to the closed structure part, a closing step of, after the pre-forming step is completed, moving the joint ends of the interim part toward each other and urging, against one of the joint ends, a concave flange processing portion formed on one of a pair of press forming surfaces of the press forming die at the edge end adjacent to the other press forming surface, and a press joining step of, after the closing step is completed, further moving the press forming die in a pressing direction, bending the one of the joint ends using a pressing force applied from the flange processing portion so that the joint end overlaps the outer surface of the other join end and a latch flange portion for latching the other joint end is formed and, simultaneously, pressing the blank using the pair of press forming surfaces and press-forming outer portions of the pair of the joint ends of the blank into predetermined shapes.
