Abstract

The punching processing method of the present invention is a punching processing method in which a metallic sheet material 1 a is sequentially subjected to multiple punching processing steps by a punch and a die, comprising, in first step punching processing, forming a first step punched surface 2 on the sheet material 1 a, and then in second step punching processing, forming a second step punched surface 3 on the sheet material 1 a by punching the sheet material 1 a such that the second step punched surface 3 and the first step punched surface 2 are crossed with each other, thereby forming matching portions 5 at positions where the first step punched surface 2 and the second step punched surface 3 intersect, wherein after the first step punching processing and before the second step punching process, the method further comprises subjecting the sheet material 1 a to swaging processing that sandwiches and crushes matching portion forming portions 5 a of the sheet material 1 a, which will form the matching portions 5, from a top surface TS side and a back surface BS side of the sheet material 1 a.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A punching processing method in which a metallic sheet material is sequentially subjected to multiple punching processing steps by at least one punch and at least one die, comprising the following steps in this order:
a first punching processing step of forming a first punched surface on the sheet material;
a swaging processing step that sandwiches and crushes one or more matching portion-forming portions of the sheet material from a top surface side and a back surface side of the sheet material, wherein the swaging processing step comprises pressing and crushing the matching portion-forming portions by a contact surface inclined at 30° to 85° relative to the top surface and the back surface of the sheet material; and,
a second punching processing step of forming a second punched surface on the sheet material by punching the sheet material such that the second punched surface and the first punched surface intersect with each other, thereby forming one or more matching portions from the matching portion-forming portions at positions where the first punched surface and the second punched surface intersect.

2. The punching processing method according to claim 1 , comprising, in the swaging processing step, sandwiching and crushing the matching portion-forming portions by pressing the matching portion-forming portions of the sheet material from the back surface side that is opposite to the top surface side of the sheet material, and in the second punching processing step, pressing the sheet material from the top surface side by a punch.

3. The punching processing method according to claim 2 , wherein the swaging processing step comprises pressing and crushing at least one boundary portion between the back surface and the first step punched surface at the matching portion-forming portions.

4. The punching processing method according to claim 1 , comprising carrying out the swaging processing step with a processing rate in a range of 30% to 90%, wherein the processing rate is a ratio of a thickness of the matching portion-forming portion after the swaging processing step to a thickness of the matching portion forming portion before the swaging processing step.

5. A method of manufacturing a press-formed product, comprising manufacturing the press-formed product using the punching processing method according to claim 1 .
