Description
DEVICE FOR PRESS-FORMING A THIN SHEET AND
PRESS-FORMING METHOD
Technical Field The present invention relates to a device and a method for press-forming a thin sheet. More specifically, the invention relates to a device and a method for press-forming a thin sheet capable of measuring a stress or a strain (hereinafter, referred to as "a strain") generated on a curved surface of a press mold and judging the defect of a product by press-forming or the mold (such as crack or burning) based on the measured amount of strain.
Background Art In press-forming, when a thin sheet is press-molded by using a press mold having a curved projecting structure formed on the press mold, such as a bead or a projection having a small curvature, a defect in press-forming, such as a crack, necking (i.e., a constriction generated by the concentration of plastic deformation at a certain cross section of the thin sheet) or a wrinkle, may become problematic. Generally, such a crack, necking or wrinkle is very small, and therefore, it is very difficult to find in a manufacturing process.
Since a pressing force of a press machine or a reaction force due to deformation resistance of a workpiece to be pressed is applied to the mold at the time of press-forming, the mold may be elastically deformed. This elastic deformation is known as "mold strain". The crack, necking or wrinkle, generated when the thin sheet is press-molded by using the press mold having the curved projecting structure as described above, is greatly influenced by occurrence of mold strain.
As a device for measuring the mold strain, Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication (Kokai) No. 5-337554

As a device for measuring the mold strain, Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication (Kokai) No. 5-337554
2 -discloses a device for correcting a deflection of press brake having an upper beam with a punch and a lower beam with a die, the punch and the die being configured to move relative to each other so as to bend a workpiece between the punch and the die. This device includes: an upper beam strain sensor for detecting a strain of the upper beam; a plurality of lower beam strain sensors for detecting a strain of the lower beam, the sensors being arranged along the longitudinal direction of the lower beam; a-plurality of actuators for applying a pressure force to an upper mold or a lower mold, the actuators being arranged along a machining line between the lower beam and the lower mold or between the upper beam and the upper mold; and a control means configured to stop the upper beam at a certain point while the pressurization is carried out, obtain a detection output by the upper beam strain sensor and the lower beam strain sensors when the upper beam is stopped, calculate strain amounts of the upper and lower beams based on the detection output, control the actuators based on the calculation such that the strain amounts become proper values, and restart the pressurization. This device is intended to produce a product having an uniform bending angle across the entire length of the product.
On the other hand, Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication (Kokai) No. 2004-249365 discloses a press-forming device having a punch; a die; a blank-holding die; a friction measuring means arranged between the die and the blank-holding die; and a blank-holding force adjusting means. This device is intended to generate a proper friction force regardless of variable factors, such as lubricity between the mold and a workpiece or the surface characteristics of the workpiece, and then provide a good product even when the material characteristics of the workpiece and/or the environment condition is varied.

On the other hand, Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication (Kokai) No. 2004-249365 discloses a press-forming device having a punch; a die; a blank-holding die; a friction measuring means arranged between the die and the blank-holding die; and a blank-holding force adjusting means. This device is intended to generate a proper friction force regardless of variable factors, such as lubricity between the mold and a workpiece or the surface characteristics of the workpiece, and then provide a good product even when the material characteristics of the workpiece and/or the environment condition is varied.
In addition, some of the applicants of this
- 3 -application disclosed a press-forming device having a piezoelectric element (or a mold friction sensor) positioned near a shoulder of a die, for measuring a compressive or extensional strain in the orthogonal directions, in the 57-th Journal of Conference on Technology of Plasticity, (2006), pp. 165-166. By means of information from the mold friction sensor, a springback and/or a torsion regarding the shape of a product may be predictable.
Although Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication (Kokai) No. 5-337554 discloses an invention regarding a device having a measurement function of the mold strain, it is described that the beam strain sensors are arranged merely along the longitudinal direction of the beam for the press brake. In a press-forming process using a mold having a complicated shape relative to the beam for the press brake, in order to measure the mold strain of the mold with a high degree of accuracy, it is necessary to directly measure the mold strain by using a measurement means within the mold such as the punch, the die or the blank-holding die. In this connection, the invention as disclosed in Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication (Kokai) No. 5-337554 is insufficient.
Further, in the invention of Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication (Kokai) No. 5-337554, the forming process is stopped before the forming is finished and the strain amounts of the upper and lower beams are detected while the forming process is stopped, and after that, the actuators are controlled such that the strain amounts become proper values and then the forming is restarted.
However, in the press-forming, unlike the bending process of the press brake, if the press-forming is stopped during the process, friction between a workpiece and a tool becomes significantly different from the friction generated during the press-forming. Therefore, if the invention of Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication (Kokai) No. 5-337554 is applied to the press-forming, the

However, in the press-forming, unlike the bending process of the press brake, if the press-forming is stopped during the process, friction between a workpiece and a tool becomes significantly different from the friction generated during the press-forming. Therefore, if the invention of Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication (Kokai) No. 5-337554 is applied to the press-forming, the
- 4 -mold strain will be different from that during the press-forming, whereby sufficient measurement accuracy cannot be obtained.
On the other hand, Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication (Kokai) No. 2004-249365 discloses a configuration having a strain measuring element sandwiched between a sheet and a blank-holding die fastened by a bolt or the like, for directly measuring friction. When a workpiece, sandwiched between the sheet and a die, is slidably moved, shear strain is generated at the strain measuring element and friction can then be measured. This configuration may be similar to the present application in using the strain measuring element. However, the measuring element of Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication (Kokai) No. 2004-249365 is used for measuring the friction by arranging a kind of structure on the blank-holding die or the die, therefore, the measuring element cannot directly measure the mold strain of the blank-holding die or the die.
In order to the mold strain with a high degree of accuracy, it is necessary to directly measure the mold strain of the punch, the die and/or the blank-holding die. In this connection, the invention disclosed in Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication (Kokai) No. 2004-249365 is insufficient. On the other hand, the invention disclosed in 57-th Journal of Conference on Technology of Plasticity, (2006), pp. 165-166, includes a friction sensor positioned near the shoulder of the die. However, since the actual mold has a complicated shape, a shoulder of some molds cannot be clearly identified. Therefore, in the actual mold, it is difficult to determine where the strain sensor should be positioned, and the determination needs trial and error.

Detailed Description Best mode for carrying out the invention will now be described in detail with reference to the drawings.
Figs. 1 and 2 are cross sectional views of a press-forming device according to a first embodiment of the invention. In Fig. 1, a die 2 is arranged on a press slide, and in Fig. 2, a punch 1 is arranged on the press slide. In the both cases, the press-forming device has
- 10 -punch 1 and die 2 configured to be moved relative to each other.
A workpiece 4 to be processed is compressed against punch l.by means of die 2 and is formed into a predetermined shape. At this point, it was found that a forming defect such as a crack, necking and wrinkle, and a mold defect, such as sticking of the mold may be detected by arranging a strain measurement means 5 (as described below) in the mold around a curved convex portion formed on the surface of punch 1 or die 2 and by monitoring an amount of strain or a strain amount measured by the measurement means.
In order to effectively judge the forming defect such as a crack, necking or wrinkle, the installation position of strain measurement means 5 is very important.
Figs. 3 and 4 show preferable positions of strain measurement means 5.
In Fig. 3, die 2 is arranged on the press slide, and in Fig. 4, punch 1 is arranged on the press slide. In the both cases, the installation position of strain measurement means 5 is positioned at the press-direction side relative to a radius end of a die shoulder on the material flow-out side when the mold to be measured (punch 1 or die 2 in this case) is positioned at a lower dead point of press-forming.
The reason for such positioning of the strain measurement means is to prevent the mold from being broken or damaged due to the position of strain measurement means 5 in the mold. In particular, in die 2, if strain measurement means 5 is not positioned at the press-direction side relative to a radius end of a die shoulder on the material flow-out side, a bore in the mold for installing the strain measurement means is not likely to have a sufficient dimensional accuracy.
Generally, a drill is used for forming the bore in the mold for strain measurement means 5. At this point, if the thickness of the mold between the bore for installing

In order to effectively judge the forming defect such as a crack, necking or wrinkle, the installation position of strain measurement means 5 is very important.
Figs. 3 and 4 show preferable positions of strain measurement means 5.
In Fig. 3, die 2 is arranged on the press slide, and in Fig. 4, punch 1 is arranged on the press slide. In the both cases, the installation position of strain measurement means 5 is positioned at the press-direction side relative to a radius end of a die shoulder on the material flow-out side when the mold to be measured (punch 1 or die 2 in this case) is positioned at a lower dead point of press-forming.
The reason for such positioning of the strain measurement means is to prevent the mold from being broken or damaged due to the position of strain measurement means 5 in the mold. In particular, in die 2, if strain measurement means 5 is not positioned at the press-direction side relative to a radius end of a die shoulder on the material flow-out side, a bore in the mold for installing the strain measurement means is not likely to have a sufficient dimensional accuracy.
Generally, a drill is used for forming the bore in the mold for strain measurement means 5. At this point, if the thickness of the mold between the bore for installing
- 11 -strain measurement means 5 and the surface of die 2 is small, the drill while processing may be bent toward the surface of the mold due to the insufficient rigidity of the drill, whereby the dimensional accuracy of the bore may be lowered. When such a problem occurs, the actual thickness of the mold is smaller than the directed dimension thereof, whereby a risk of breakage of the mold becomes higher. In order to avoid this problem, it is preferable that strain measurement means 5 be positioned at the press-direction side relative to the radius end of the die shoulder on the material flow-out side.
When strain measurement means 5 is not positioned at the press-direction side relative to the radius end of the die shoulder on the material flow-out side, a failure of processing other than the hole drilling may occur.
For example a crack may occur in the mold during a thermal treatment. Even when the hole drilling and the thermal treatment are successfully carried out, the mold may be damaged due to the lack of strength of the mold after the mold is repeatedly used.
Figs. 5 and 6 show are cross sectional views of a press-forming device according to a second embodiment of the invention. In the second embodiment, the installation position of strain measurement means 5 is further limited in order to measure the strain amount more precisely than the first embodiment.
Fig. 5 is an enlarged view around strain measurement means 5 arranged in punch 1. As shown, strain measurement means 5 is positioned in an installation region 6 within the mold.
Preferable installation region 6 for strain measurement means 5 is defined by a surface which is away from a center of curvature 7 of a curved surface of the mold by the distance ten times R, where R is the curvature radius of the curved surface.
In the present invention, the curvature radius is defined as a radius curvature of a curved portion, in a

Fig. 5 is an enlarged view around strain measurement means 5 arranged in punch 1. As shown, strain measurement means 5 is positioned in an installation region 6 within the mold.
Preferable installation region 6 for strain measurement means 5 is defined by a surface which is away from a center of curvature 7 of a curved surface of the mold by the distance ten times R, where R is the curvature radius of the curved surface.
In the present invention, the curvature radius is defined as a radius curvature of a curved portion, in a
- 12 -cross section of the punch or the die parallel to the press direction, the curved portion being approximated by a part having a constant radius curvature. Based on the approximated curved portion, center of curvature 7 is determined.
Next, the reason, that the installation region of the strain measurement means is within a region defined by a surface which is away from center of curvature 7 of the curved surface of the mold by the distance ten times R, will be explained.
A theoretical solution of a concentrated force applied to a two-dimensional stress field has already been obtained by Zeitschrift Fur Angewandte Mathematik and Mechanik Ingenieurwissenschaftliche Forschungsarbeiten, Herausgegeben Von Professor R. Von Mises et al., V.D.I.-Verlag G.M.B.H., Berlin NW 7, 1932. For example, as shown in Fig. 22, a two-dimensional stress distribution when a concentrated force Fo is applied to an apex of a corner having an angle a may be calculated by equation (1) below.
6r = _ 2F0 cos 8 =O ,TO (a + sin a) r ' 6a 'ire 0 (1) As shown in Fig. 23, even when a surface pressure P is applied to a curved portion having a radius rd and a radius curvature D, equation (1) may be utilized to obtain an approximated stress distribution if radius rd is small (0.3mm < rd < 30.0mm). In this case, the stress distribution may be calculated by equation (2).
(Tr 2P~rd _ Cos 0 6 = 0. ti = 0 (2) e re (a + sin a) r As indicated in equations (1) and (2), in the two-dimensional stress distribution obtained by the concentrated force, the stress in the direction other than the radius direction in a polar coordinate system indicated by r, A
becomes zero. Also, the distribution of a stress Ur in the radius direction may be indicated by polar coordinates r, A.
Fig. 24 shows contour lines of the stress distribution corresponding to equation (1).

However, similarly to another measurement means, there is a limitation in the finite resolution in strain measurement means 5. Therefore, it is difficult to measure a very small strain amount or a change of strain by the strain measurement means.
In order to measure with high accuracy by strain measurement means 5, it is assumed that the strain amount generated at the installation position of strain measurement means 5 must be equal to or larger than a minimum measurable strain amount Em.
According to Hooke's law, stress am corresponding to minimum measurable strain amount cm may be represented by equation (4) by using an elastic modulus E.

r < P rd (5) E = Em By using equation (5), the installation region for strain measurement means 5 may be determined, where the
- 14 -measurement means can measure the strain amount with high accuracy.
However, it is difficult to precisely calculate surface pressure P in equation (5) corresponding to a contact surface pressure between the mold and a steel sheet. This is because the installation region of the strain measurement means must be determined before the mold is manufactured and thus a measured value cannot be used to determine the installation region. Although the surface pressure may be predicted by FEM or the like, the accuracy may be insufficient.
Accordingly, without taking into consideration surface pressure P which is difficult to be precisely calculated, it is assumed that stress a in equation (4) is equal to 10% of surface pressure P, in order to determine the installation region of strain measurement means 5. Then, equation (6) may be obtained by equation (3).
r < 10rd (6) By using equation (6), the installation region r of strain measurement means 5 may be easily determined, without taking into consideration surface pressure P
which is difficult to be precisely calculated. In the invention, therefore, the preferable installation position of strain measurement means is defined by a surface which is away from the center of curvature of the curved surface by the distance ten times R, where R is a curvature radius of the curved surface.
Fig. 26 shows the preferable installation region of strain measurement means 5 determined by equation (6).
The installation region is a region within an arc having the radius 5rd, the coordinate (r, 0) of the center of which is equal to (5rd, 0).

which is difficult to be precisely calculated. In the invention, therefore, the preferable installation position of strain measurement means is defined by a surface which is away from the center of curvature of the curved surface by the distance ten times R, where R is a curvature radius of the curved surface.
Fig. 26 shows the preferable installation region of strain measurement means 5 determined by equation (6).
The installation region is a region within an arc having the radius 5rd, the coordinate (r, 0) of the center of which is equal to (5rd, 0).
In the invention, the suitable installation region of strain measurement means 5 is determined by equation (6). In addition, the region determined by equation (6)

As a limitation of the installation region calculated by equation (6), equation (5) is calculated as described below, by using surface pressure P obtained by the theoretical analysis result.

It is preferable that the strain measurement means
- 17 -is positioned a region near the center of curvature relative to surfaces each intersecting with each end portion of the curved surface of the mold and inclined, away from the curved surface, by 45 degrees relative to a normal line at each end portion (see Figs. 30 and 32 as described below). Generally, the strain applied to the mold via the steel sheet becomes larger at the curved portion of the mold. At this point, the strain tends to progress in a region within the mold defined lines extending from a starting point for the strain on the surface and inclined by 45 degrees relative to the normal line at the starting point, and does not tend to progress in a region within the mold outside the defined lines.
Therefore, by positioning the strain measurement means in a region near the center of curvature relative to surfaces each intersecting with each end portion of the curved surface of the mold and inclined, away from the curved surface, by 45 degrees relative to a normal line at each end portion, the strain of the curved portion of the mold may be sensitively measured.
Further, the strain measurement means is preferably positioned away from the surface of the mold to be measured by more than 5mm. When the strain measurement means is positioned at the position which is not away from the surface by more than 5mm, the strength of the surface near the strain measurement means may be lowered and the breakage may occur at the surface.

Figs. 9a and 9b show a concrete example of strain measurement means 5. In one example, a bore and an internal thread are formed in die 2 as shown in Fig. 9a, and then, a strain sensor 8 is inserted into the bore and a plug used to generate an axial force for press-fitting the sensor, as shown in Fig. 9b. At this point, when a piezoelectric element sensor is used as strain sensor 8, measurement with high frequency response may be carried out.
Fig. 30 is a view explaining a preferable installation region for the strain measurement means. As described above, the strain measurement means is positioned at the press-direction side relative to the radius end of the die shoulder on the material flow-out side. Further, as shown in Fig. 30, when strain sensor 8 is press-fit in shoulder 22 of die 2, it is preferable that a distance D in the press direction between a measurement point (or a front end) 81 of sensor 8 and die surface 21 is equal to or smaller than the radius of a bore 25 formed in die 2, in view of the strength of the die. For example, when the radius of the die shoulder is equal to 2mm and the radius of the bore is equal to 4mm, it is preferable that the distance D is equal to or more than 4mm, more preferably, equal to or more than 5mm.
In addition, as shown in Fig. 30, when strain sensor 8 extends in the direction perpendicular to the press direction, a friction force between the workpiece and the die may be detected without being affected by the press force.
Next, the preferable installation region for the strain measurement means will be explained.

- 19 -formed with a blank-holding force of 3MPa, the elastic deformation region is within a region which is not away from center of curvature 7 by a distance four times the radius of the R-portion. At this point, there is a linear relationship between the size of the elastic deformation region and the strength of the.workpiece.
For example, as indicated by a solid line in a graph as shown in Fig. 31, when the workpiece has the strength of 1500MPa which is believed an upper limit in a general press-forming, the elastic deformation region is within a region which is not array from center of curvature 7 by a distance ten times the radius of the R-portion. In other words, the size of the elastic deformation region may be calculated by multiplying a suitable coefficient by a product of the strength of the workpiece and the radius of the die shoulder.
The elastic deformation region is varied depending on the blank-holding force, as indicated by dashed lines in the graph of Fig. 31, each representing a case in which the blank-holding force is equal to 2MPa or 5MPa.
As shown, the influence of the blank-holding force is relatively large when the strength of the workpiece is small, and decreases as the strength becomes larger. For example, when the blank-holding force and the strength of the workpiece are equal to 5MPa and 600MPa, respectively, the elastic deformation region is within a region which is not away from the center of curvature by a distance seven times the radius of the R-portion. On the other hand, when the strength of the workpiece is equal to 1500MPa, the elastic deformation region is not substantially varied. Accordingly, a suitable installation region 6 for the strain measurement is within a region which is not away from the center of curvature by a distance ten times the radius of the R-portion, and which may vary depending on the strength of the workpiece and/or the blank-holding force.
Further, as shown in Fig. 30, the elastic strain of
For example, as indicated by a solid line in a graph as shown in Fig. 31, when the workpiece has the strength of 1500MPa which is believed an upper limit in a general press-forming, the elastic deformation region is within a region which is not array from center of curvature 7 by a distance ten times the radius of the R-portion. In other words, the size of the elastic deformation region may be calculated by multiplying a suitable coefficient by a product of the strength of the workpiece and the radius of the die shoulder.
The elastic deformation region is varied depending on the blank-holding force, as indicated by dashed lines in the graph of Fig. 31, each representing a case in which the blank-holding force is equal to 2MPa or 5MPa.
As shown, the influence of the blank-holding force is relatively large when the strength of the workpiece is small, and decreases as the strength becomes larger. For example, when the blank-holding force and the strength of the workpiece are equal to 5MPa and 600MPa, respectively, the elastic deformation region is within a region which is not away from the center of curvature by a distance seven times the radius of the R-portion. On the other hand, when the strength of the workpiece is equal to 1500MPa, the elastic deformation region is not substantially varied. Accordingly, a suitable installation region 6 for the strain measurement is within a region which is not away from the center of curvature by a distance ten times the radius of the R-portion, and which may vary depending on the strength of the workpiece and/or the blank-holding force.
Further, as shown in Fig. 30, the elastic strain of
- 20 -die 2 may be measured more sensitively when the strain measurement means is positioned within a region near the center of curvature relative to surfaces 231 and 241 (indicated by lines in Fig. 30) each intersecting with each of radius ends 23 and 24 of the curved surface of the mold and inclined, away from the curved surface, by 45 degrees relative to a normal line at each end portion.
Therefore, the region with hatching in Fig. 30 is the most preferable region for the measurement point of the strain sensor.
Although Fig. 30 explains the case of the die shoulder having the convex shape, the similar concept may be applied to the case of the punch or the die having the concave shape, as shown in Fig. 32. However, in the case of the die or the punch having the concave shape, a center of curvature 7' is positioned outside the die or the punch to be measured. In this case, when a workpiece having the strength of 600MPa is press-formed with a blank-holding force of 3MPa, a preferable installation region 6' for the strain measurement means is within a ~-' region indicated by a generally semispherical shape which is not away from center of curvature 7' by a distance four times the radius of the R-portion. In the example of Fig. 32, the region with hatching is the most preferable region for the measurement point of the strain sensor.
As shown in Fig. 33, when the curvature of the convex or concave portion is considerably large (for example, R>_100mm), it may be difficult to measure the elastic deformation of the die or the punch between radius ends 23 and 24 by using one strain sensor. In such a case, a plurality of (two in the drawing) sensors 8 may be effectively used. The number of the sensors may be properly determined. As shown in Fig. 33, a preferable detecting region of each sensor is generally defined by lines extending from the front end of the sensor and inclined by 45 degrees. The number of the
Therefore, the region with hatching in Fig. 30 is the most preferable region for the measurement point of the strain sensor.
Although Fig. 30 explains the case of the die shoulder having the convex shape, the similar concept may be applied to the case of the punch or the die having the concave shape, as shown in Fig. 32. However, in the case of the die or the punch having the concave shape, a center of curvature 7' is positioned outside the die or the punch to be measured. In this case, when a workpiece having the strength of 600MPa is press-formed with a blank-holding force of 3MPa, a preferable installation region 6' for the strain measurement means is within a ~-' region indicated by a generally semispherical shape which is not away from center of curvature 7' by a distance four times the radius of the R-portion. In the example of Fig. 32, the region with hatching is the most preferable region for the measurement point of the strain sensor.
As shown in Fig. 33, when the curvature of the convex or concave portion is considerably large (for example, R>_100mm), it may be difficult to measure the elastic deformation of the die or the punch between radius ends 23 and 24 by using one strain sensor. In such a case, a plurality of (two in the drawing) sensors 8 may be effectively used. The number of the sensors may be properly determined. As shown in Fig. 33, a preferable detecting region of each sensor is generally defined by lines extending from the front end of the sensor and inclined by 45 degrees. The number of the
- 21 -sensors may be determined based on the detecting region of each sensor.
Next, a press-forming method, capable of judging a defect of a formed product, will be explained with reference to Fig. 10. Fig. 10 is a graph showing a measurement result of a strain amount by using strain sensor 8. In the graph, a horizontal axis indicates a forming stroke S. Setart means the position of the press slide when forming of workpiece 4 begins, and Send means the position of the press slide when the slide reaches a lower dead point of press-forming and forming of workpiece 4 is finished. On the other hand, a vertical axis of-the graph indicates a strain amount. At this point, the compressive strain is indicated by a plus (positive) value.
In Fig. 10, dashed lines Gl and G2 indicate upper and lower limits of a predetermined or threshold range of the strain amount, respectively. A method for determining the upper and lower limits of the range of the strain amount will be explained. A plurality of press-forming operations are carried out, and then, strain amount data in which a formed product has no defect is acquired. An average strain amount of ten or more of the data including no defect is used for judging the forming defect.
Further, in the plurality of press-forming operations, strain amount data exceeding the above average strain amount is acquired. An average strain amount of ten or more of the data exceeding the average is used as an upper limit of a predetermined strain amount range.
Similarly, in the plurality of press-forming operations, strain amount data falling below the above average strain amount is acquired. An average strain amount of ten or more of the data falling below the average is used as a lower limit of the predetermined strain amount range.
Next, a press-forming method, capable of judging a defect of a formed product, will be explained with reference to Fig. 10. Fig. 10 is a graph showing a measurement result of a strain amount by using strain sensor 8. In the graph, a horizontal axis indicates a forming stroke S. Setart means the position of the press slide when forming of workpiece 4 begins, and Send means the position of the press slide when the slide reaches a lower dead point of press-forming and forming of workpiece 4 is finished. On the other hand, a vertical axis of-the graph indicates a strain amount. At this point, the compressive strain is indicated by a plus (positive) value.

- 22 -Fig. 10 indicates, as an example, three measurement results of strain amounts (i), (ii) and (iii).
Measurement result (i) is judged as having no problem in press-forming, since this result is within the predetermined strain amount range. On the other hand, measurement result (ii) is judged as including the forming defect, since a part of which exceeds the upper limit of the predetermined range. Similarly, measurement result (iii) is judged as including the forming defect, since a part of which falling below the lower limit of the predetermined range. In such a way, the forming defect of the formed product is judged.
In particular, as in measurement result (iii), when a part of the measurement result falls below the lower limit of the predetermined range while forming stroke S
is equal to or larger than fifty percent of Send (i.e., in a latter half of the press-forming operation), it is judged that a crack or a necking is generated in the formed product.
In particular, as in measurement result (ii), when a part of the measurement result exceeds the upper limit of the predetermined range while forming stroke S is equal to or smaller than fifty percent of Send (i.e., in a former half of the press-forming operation), it is judged ~.- 25 that a springback or an abnormal flow-in volume of the material occurs in the formed product.

Next, a press-forming method, capable of judging a defect of the press mold, will be explained with reference to Fig. 11. Similarly to Fig. 10, Fig. 11 is a graph showing a measurement result of a strain amount.
In Fig. 11, dashed lines G3 and G4 indicate upper and
- 23 -lower limits of a predetermined or threshold range of the strain amount, respectively.
A method for determining the upper and lower limits of the range of the strain amount will be explained.
Similarly to the case for judging the formed product, a plurality of press-forming operations are carried out, and then, strain amount data in which the press mold has no defect is acquired. An average strain amount of fifty or more of the data including no defect is used for judging the mold defect.
Further, in the plurality of press-forming operations, strain amount data exceeding the above average strain amount is acquired. An average strain amount of fifty or more of the data exceeding the average is used as an upper limit of a predetermined strain amount range.
Similarly, in the plurality of press-forming operations, strain amount data falling below the above average strain amount is acquired. An average strain amount of fifty or more of the data falling below the average is used as a lower limit of the predetermined strain amount range.
Fig. 11 indicates, as an example, three measurement results of strain amounts (iv), (v) and (vi).
Measurement result (iv) is judged as having no problem in the mold, since this result is within the predetermined strain amount range. On the other hand, measurement result (v) is judged as including the mold defect, since a part of which exceeds the upper limit of the predetermined range. Similarly, measurement result (v) is judged as including the mold defect, since a part of which falling below the lower limit of the predetermined range. In such a way, the forming defect of the press mold is judged.

Fig. 11 indicates, as an example, three measurement results of strain amounts (iv), (v) and (vi).
Measurement result (iv) is judged as having no problem in the mold, since this result is within the predetermined strain amount range. On the other hand, measurement result (v) is judged as including the mold defect, since a part of which exceeds the upper limit of the predetermined range. Similarly, measurement result (v) is judged as including the mold defect, since a part of which falling below the lower limit of the predetermined range. In such a way, the forming defect of the press mold is judged.

The member has a vertical wall with a bent portion such that the tension may be applied to the vertical wall and the forming defect at the wall may be reduced.
In the press-forming, both the punch and the die were selected as the mold to be measured and, as shown in Fig. 13, two strain measurement means 5 were arranged, i.e., one in punch 1 and the other in die 2.
- 25 -Each of the two strain measurement means was positioned at the press-direction side relative to the radius end of the die shoulder on the material flow-out side when the punch and the tie were positioned at a lower dead point of press-forming. The press-direction is indicated by an arrow in the drawing.
The radius curvature of the convex curved portion on the surface R5 of punch 1 was 5mm, and strain measurement means 5 within the punch was positioned away from center of curvature 7 by -60mm in the press-direction. In other words, strain measurement means 5 was positioned outside the region defined by the distance ten times R from center of curvature 7.
The radius curvature of the convex curved portion on the surface R3 of die 2 was 3mm, and strain measurement means 5 within the die was positioned away from center of curvature 7 by +40mm in the press-direction. In other words, strain measurement means 5 was positioned outside the region defined by the distance ten times R from center of curvature 7.
In order to arrange strain measurement means 5, as shown in Fig. 9a, a non-though bore was formed in the mold and internal threads were formed on the bore, as shown in Fig. 9a. Further, a strain sensor 8 as shown in Fig. 9 was inserted into the bore and then a plug was inserted so as to apply an axial force for press-fitting.
As strain sensor 8, a piezoelectric element sensor was used. The direction of compressive or extensional strain measured by the sensor was the same as the press-direction.
The strain amount measured by strain measurement means 5-arranged as such were plotted in a graph as shown in Fig. 14.

In the press-forming, a stroke when forming of workpiece 4 was started was 0mm, and a stroke when the forming was finished was 105mm. An average strain amount G9 for judging the forming defect was determined by carrying out one hundred press-forming operations, and by averaging strain amount data obtained by strain sensor 8 of seventy-five press-forming operations including no forming defect.
Among the above one hundred operations, strain amount data including forming defect was acquired and then, in eleven data, the strain amount exceeded average strain amount G9. Therefore, an average of the eleven data was determined as upper limit G7 of the strain amount range. In addition, the upper limit was generally equal to a graph obtained by adding 100 s to average strain amount G9 throughout a range of stroke.
Among the above one hundred operations, strain amount data including forming defect was acquired and then, in fourteen data, the strain amount was below average strain amount G9. Therefore, an average of the fourteen data was determined as lower limit G8 of the strain amount range. In addition, the lower limit was generally equal to a graph obtained by subtracting 80 s from average strain amount G9 throughout a range of stroke.
Similarly, an average strain amount G10 for judging the mold defect was determined by carrying out one thousand press-forming operations, and by averaging strain amount data obtained by strain sensor 8 of eight hundreds and ninety-five press-forming operations including no mold defect.
Among the above one thousand operations, strain amount data including mold defect was acquired and then, in fifty-two data, the strain amount exceeded average strain amount G10. Therefore, an average of the fifty-two data was determined as upper limit G5 of the strain

- 35 -Table 5 indicates a result of mold inspection for detecting a mold defect such as a crack or a sticking and a result of judgment of the mold defect by using the strain amount data obtained by strain measurement means 5 positioned in punch 1. Due to strain measurement means 5, the defect judgment rate of 27.6ppm was obtained, where the defect rate was 32.8ppm. The over-detect rate and under-detect rate were 8.5ppm and 5.3ppm, respectively.
Due to the above results, it is understood that judgment of defect of the product or the mold was achieved according to the invention.
Example 2 Based on the present invention, the press-forming device as shown in Fig. 4 or 5 was manufactured to carry out press-forming, as an example 2.
The characteristic of a steel sheet used as a workpiece is indicated in table 1. The shape of the member formed by the press-forming device is shown in Fig. 12.
In the press-forming, both the punch and the die were selected as the mold to be measured and, as shown in Fig. 15, two strain measurement means 5 were arranged, i.e., one in punch 1 and the other in die 2. Each of the two strain measurement means was positioned at the press-direction side relative to the radius end of the die shoulder on the material flow-out side when the punch and the tie were positioned at a lower dead point of press-forming. The press-direction is indicated by an arrow in the drawing.
The radius curvature of the convex curved portion on the surface R5 of punch 1 was 5mm, and strain measurement means 5 within the punch was positioned in a region which is not away from center of curvature 7 by 50mm, as illustrated. The radius curvature of the convex curved portion on the surface R3 of die 2 was 3mm, and strain

- 36 -measurement means 5 within the die was positioned in a region which is not away from center of curvature 7 by 30mm, as illustrated.
In order to arrange strain measurement means 5, as shown in Fig. 9a, a non-though bore was formed in the mold and internal threads were formed on the bore, as shown in Fig. 9a. Further, a strain sensor 8 as shown in Fig. 9 was inserted into the bore and then a plug was inserted so as to apply an axial force for press-fitting.
As strain sensor 8, a piezoelectric element sensor was used. The direction of compressive or extensional strain measured by the sensor was the same as the press-direction.
The strain amount measured by strain measurement means 5 arranged as such were plotted in a graph as shown in Fig. 16. The mold defect and the forming defect were judged by using a predetermined strain amount range (sandwiched by an upper limit G11 and a lower limit G12) for judging the mold defect, and a predetermined strain amount range (sandwiched by an upper limit G13 and a lower limit G14) for judging the forming defect, respectively.
An average strain amount G15 for judging the forming defect and a predetermined strain amount range thereof, and an average strain amount G16 for judging the mold defect and a predetermined strain amount range thereof, as shown in Fig. 16, were determined by the same method as in example 1.
Tables 6 to 9 indicate the test result of the press-forming by using the press-forming device manufactured as example 2.

The strain amount measured by strain measurement means 5 arranged as such were plotted in a graph as shown in Fig. 16. The mold defect and the forming defect were judged by using a predetermined strain amount range (sandwiched by an upper limit G11 and a lower limit G12) for judging the mold defect, and a predetermined strain amount range (sandwiched by an upper limit G13 and a lower limit G14) for judging the forming defect, respectively.
An average strain amount G15 for judging the forming defect and a predetermined strain amount range thereof, and an average strain amount G16 for judging the mold defect and a predetermined strain amount range thereof, as shown in Fig. 16, were determined by the same method as in example 1.
Tables 6 to 9 indicate the test result of the press-forming by using the press-forming device manufactured as example 2.

Due to strain measurement means 5, the defect judgment rate of 32.8ppm was obtained, where the defect rate was 32.8ppm. In other words, all of the mold defects were judged. The over-detect rate and under-detect rate were O.Oppm and O.Oppm, respectively. Therefore, these results were better than the results in example 1.
Due to the above results, it is understood that judgment of defect of the product or the mold was achieved more precisely, according to the invention. In other words, by positioning strain measurement means 5 in the mold, within the region defined by the distance ten times R from center of curvature 7 of the curved portion, the judgment accuracy of the product defect or the mold product may be improved in comparison to example 1.

Due to strain measurement means 5, the defect judgment rate of 32.8ppm was obtained, where the defect rate was 32.8ppm. In other words, all of the mold defects were judged. The over-detect rate and under-detect rate were O.Oppm and O.Oppm, respectively. Therefore, these results were better than the results in example 1.
Due to the above results, it is understood that judgment of defect of the product or the mold was achieved more precisely, according to the invention. In other words, by positioning strain measurement means 5 in the mold, within the region defined by the distance ten times R from center of curvature 7 of the curved portion, the judgment accuracy of the product defect or the mold product may be improved in comparison to example 1.
Example 3 Based on the present invention, the press-forming device as shown in Fig. 7 was manufactured to carry out press-forming, as an example 3. The characteristic of a steel sheet used as a workpiece is indicated in table 10.
The thickness and the tensile strength of the used steel sheet were 0.8mm and 270MPa, respectively.

Steel Sheet 129 308 52 The shape of the member formed by the press-forming device is shown in Fig. 17. As indicated by a cross section A-A in Fig. 17, the member has a vertical die wall having a characteristic portion with R3, and a punch bottom having a characteristic portion with R5.
- 45 -In the press-forming, both the punch and the die were selected as the mold to be measured and, as shown in Fig. 18, two strain measurement means 5 were arranged, i.e., one in punch 1 and the other in die 2.
Each of the two strain measurement means was positioned at the press-direction side relative to the radius end of the die shoulder on the material flow-out side when the punch and the tie were positioned at a lower dead point of press-forming. The press-direction is indicated by an arrow in the drawing.
The radius curvature of the convex curved portion on the surface R5 of punch 1 was 5mm, and strain measurement means 5 within the punch was positioned away from center of curvature 7 by -60mm in the press-direction. In other words, strain measurement means 5 was positioned outside the region defined by the distance ten times R from center of curvature 7.
The radius curvature of the convex curved portion on the surface R3 of die 2 was 3mm, and strain measurement means 5 within the die was positioned away from center of curvature 7 by +40mm in the press-direction. In other words, strain measurement means 5 was positioned outside the region defined by the distance ten times R from center of curvature 7.
In order to arrange strain measurement means 5, as shown in Fig. 9a, a non-though bore was formed in the mold and internal threads were formed on the bore, as shown in Fig. 9a. Further, a strain sensor 8 as shown in Fig. 9 was inserted into the bore and then a plug was inserted so as to apply an axial force for press-fitting.
As strain sensor 8, a piezoelectric element sensor was used. The direction of compressive or extensional strain measured by the sensor was the same as the press-direction.
The strain amount measured by strain measurement means 5 arranged as such were plotted in a graph as shown in Fig. 19. The mold defect and the forming defect were

- 54 -Table 14 indicates a result of mold inspection for detecting a mold defect such as a crack or a sticking and a result of judgment of the mold defect by using the strain amount data obtained by strain measurement means 5 positioned in punch 1. Due to strain measurement means 5, the defect judgment rate of 32.7ppm was obtained, where the defect rate was 37.9ppm. The over-detect rate and under-detect rate were 12.3ppm and 5.2ppm, respectively.
Due to the above results, it is understood that judgment of defect of the product or the mold was i._ achieved according to the invention.
Example 4 Based on the present invention, the press-forming device as shown in Fig. 7 was manufactured to carry out press-forming, as an example 4. The characteristic of a steel sheet used as a workpiece is indicated in table 10.
The shape of the member formed by the press-forming device is shown in Fig. 17.
In the press-forming, both the punch and the die were selected as the mold to be measured and, as shown in Fig. 20, two strain measurement means 5 were arranged, i.e., one in punch 1 and the other in die 2. Each of the two strain measurement means was positioned at the press-direction side relative to the radius end of the die shoulder on the material flow-out side when the punch and the tie-were positioned at a lower dead point of press-forming. The press-direction is indicated by an arrow in the drawing.
The radius curvature of the convex curved portion on the surface R5 of punch 1 was 5mm, and strain measurement means 5 within the punch was positioned in a region which is not away from center of curvature 7 by 50mm, as illustrated.

In order to arrange strain measurement means 5, as shown in Fig. 9a, a non-though bore was formed in the mold and internal threads were formed on the bore, as shown in Fig. 9a. Further, a strain sensor 8 as shown in Fig. 9 was inserted into the bore and then a plug was inserted so as to apply an axial force for press-fitting.
As strain sensor 8, a piezoelectric element sensor was used. The direction of compressive or extensional strain measured by the sensor was the same as the press-direction.
The strain amount measured by strain measurement means 5 arranged as such are plotted in a graph as shown in Fig. 21. The mold defect and the forming defect were judged by using a predetermined strain amount range (sandwiched by an upper limit G23 and a lower limit G24) for judging the mold defect, and a predetermined strain amount range (sandwiched by an upper limit G25 and a lower limit G26) for judging the forming defect, respectively.
An average strain amount G27 for judging the forming defect and a predetermined strain amount range thereof, and an average strain amount G28 for judging the mold defect and a predetermined strain amount range thereof, as shown in Fig. 21, were determined by the same method as in example 1.
Tables 15 to 18 indicate the test result of the press-forming by using the press-forming device manufactured as example 4.
