Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

In performing burring processing on a sheet-like member, the following processes are performed: a punching process of performing punching processing of the sheet-like member; a hole expansion process of performing hole expansion processing of a punched hole formed by the punching process; a re-punching process of performing punching processing again on a portion surrounding the punched hole expanded by force in the hole expansion process; and a burring process of pushing a portion surrounding a re-punched hole that is a punched hole formed by the re-punching process and forming a vertical wall.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A burring processing method of a sheet member, comprising: a punching process of performing punching processing of the sheet member; a hole expansion process of performing hole expansion processing of a punched hole formed by the punching process by putting and fixing the sheet member around the punched hole between a die and a holder; a re-punching process of performing punching processing again on a portion surrounding the punched hole expanded by force in the hole expansion process; and a burring process of pushing a portion surrounding a re-punched hole that is a punched hole formed by the re-punching process and forming a vertical wall wherein the punching process performs a punching processing of the sheet member to form a hole of a particular diameter, and the re-punching process performs punching processing again on a portion surrounding the punched hole expanded by force in the hole expansion process removes material around the hole to form a hole with a greater diameter. 2. The burring processing method according to claim 1 , wherein, in the re-punching process, the portion surrounding the punched hole is punched such that a surface in which the punched hole is formed after finishing of the hole expansion process remains. 3. The burring processing method according to claim 1 , wherein the sheet member is a high-tensile steel sheet. 4. The burring processing method according to claim 1 , wherein the sheet member is a hot rolled steel sheet. 5. The burring processing method according to claim 1 , wherein, in the burring process, the vertical wall is formed such that a vertical wall angle is perpendicular to a basal plane of the sheet member. 6. The burring processing method according to claim 1 , wherein, in the punching process, at least either one of machining processing and laser processing is performed as finish processing of the punched hole. 7. The burring processing method according to claim 1 , wherein, in the re-punching process, at least either one of machining processing and laser processing is performed as finish processing of the re-punched hole.
