Further, at the boundary portion between the outer peripheral surface of the punch 22 (the outer peripheral surface of the body) the top surface (punch surface 22B), an arc-shaped cross section of the shoulder portion 22A is formed.
[0018]
 Die 28 is disposed in the apparatus above the holder 24 is opposed to the holder 24 in the vertical direction of the apparatus. The die 28 is connected to the moving device 34 as an example of a die moving device. Mobile device 34 is movable in the die 28 in the vertical direction of the apparatus. The flanging device 20, by the die 28 is moved to the device bottom, it has a material metal sheet 10 in the configuration sandwiching the vertical direction of the apparatus by the die 28 and the holder 24. Further, on the lower surface of the die 28, the pad housing portion 28A as the "accommodating section" for accommodating the pad 26 at a position corresponding to the lower hole 10A of the material metal sheet 10 is formed. The pad housing portion 28A is formed in a concave shape which is opened to the device bottom. In other words, the die 28 has a pad accommodating portion 28A which is open to the apparatus bottom. The pad housing portion 28A is formed in a circular shape as viewed from the bottom, it is arranged above the punch accommodating part 24A coaxially.

The inner diameter d of the lower hole 10A is determined depending on the flange height of the burring parts. To accommodate to the inner diameter d of any prepared hole 10A, an outer diameter D5 of the pad 26 is desirably larger. However, the pad 26 to move in the pad receiving portion 28A, the outer diameter D5 of the pad 26 is smaller than the inner diameter D7 of the pad housing portion 28A. For example, the outer diameter D5 of the pad 26 is the same dimension as the outer diameter D4 of the punch surface 22B of the punch 22 (in this embodiment, the outer diameter D5 is 50mm, for example). In addition, the pad surface 26A of the pad 26, the surface treatment such as hardening and nitriding and surface enhancement coating, etc. is applied, the surface hardened layer is formed. This is because the pad surface 26A relaxes from being damaged by rubbing against the edge of the lower hole 10A of the material metal sheet 10.

In the present embodiment, of the peripheral portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A in the material metal plate 10 is configured so that the end portion 10C of at least the lower hole 10A side is pressurized by the pad 26 and the punch 22. Incidentally, pressure against the material metal plate 10 by the pad 26 and the punch 22 is appropriately set depending on the thickness and material of the material metal sheet 10. That is, in the second step of the burring process to be described later, an end portion 10C of the peripheral portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A of the material metal sheet 10 is relatively moved while sliding between the pads 26 and punch 22 eventually burring as the flange 14 to the part 12 is formed, the pressure is set appropriately.
[0024]
 (For burring method)
 will be described next burring method in the first embodiment. Burring method includes a first step of an example of the "placement step" described below, and a second step of an example of the "extrusion process", a.
[0025]
 As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2A, in a first step, located punch 22 is on one side in the thickness direction of the material metal plate 10, the side opposite to the one side in the thickness direction of the material metal sheet 10 ( as the pad 26 on the other side) is located, the material metal sheet 10 is arranged.
 At this time, the punch surface 22B of the upper surface and is flush with the punch surface 22B and the holder 24 of the punch 22 or the punch 22, is below the upper surface of the holder 24. In this state, it placed (set) the material metal plate 10 formed of the lower hole 10A on the holder 24. Specifically, the center of the pilot hole 10A of the material metal sheet 10 is in a state of being placed on the punch 22 coaxially installed (set) the material metal plate 10 on the holder 24.
[0026]
 Then, moving the die 28 to the apparatus bottom or raising the holder 24, to hold the material the metal plate 10 by the die 28 and the holder 24. That is, portions other than the peripheral portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A in the material metal plate 10 is sandwiched by the die 28 and the holder 24.
[0027]
 Further, in this state, the pad 26 is moved to the apparatus lower by pad pressing device 32, the peripheral edge portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A in the material metal plate 10, the pad 26 (pad surface 26A) and the punch 22 (punch surface by 22B), pressurizing the vertical direction of the apparatus (the thickness direction of the material metal plate 10). That is, in this embodiment, in a first step, the peripheral edge portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A in the material metal sheet 10 is pressed by the pad 26 and the punch 22. In other words, the initial second step described below, the peripheral edge portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A in the material metal sheet 10 is pressed sandwiched pressurized by the pad 26 and the punch 22. In the case where the punch surface 22B of the punch 22 is below the upper surface of the holder 24, the upper surface of the punch surface 22B and the holder 24 of the punch 22 after the flush, the lower hole 10A at the material metal plate 10 pressurizing the vertical direction of the apparatus by a peripheral portion 10B pad 26 and the punch 22.
[0028]
 In the second step, from the state shown in FIG. 2A, against the pressure applied by the pad pressing device 32 is moved relatively to device upper against the die 28 and the holder 24 of the punch 22 by the moving device 30. At this time, while a pressurized state for the peripheral portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A of the material metal sheet 10 is maintained by the punch 22 and the pad 26, the punch 22 and the pad 26 is moved to the apparatus upward against the die 28 and the holder 24 . Further, at this time, the peripheral edge portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A of the material metal sheet 10 which is pressurized by the punch 22 and the pad 26, while being extruded into the apparatus the upper by the punch 22, will be formed in a tubular shape (see FIG. 2B ). Specifically, the peripheral edge portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A of the material metal sheet 10, a vertical cross section, is bent in a substantially S-shape by a shoulder portion of the shoulder portion 22A and the die 28 of the punch 22. Also, with the movement of the device the upper punch 22 and the pad 26, the inner peripheral surface of the prepared hole 10A moves between the punch 22 and the pad 26 outward in the radial direction of the punch 22. That is, (while being enlarged) pilot hole 10A gradually spread while the peripheral portion 10B of the lower hole portion 10A is gradually formed into a cylindrical shape. Finally, the end portion 10C of the peripheral portion 10B of the lower hole portion 10A is, exits between the punch 22 and the pad 26, the punch 22 and the pad 26 with respect to the peripheral edge portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A of the material metal sheet 10 pressurized state by is canceled.
If the punch 22 and the die 28 is moved relatively the same manner, it burring like. In the second step, the punch 22 is fixed, also lowers the die 28 can have similar burring.
[0029]
 As shown in Figure 2C, at the end of the second step, inserting the end portion 10C of the peripheral portion 10B of the lower hole portion 10A is, after exit between the punch 22 and the pad 26, the punch 22 on the inner side of the flange 14 is It is. The end portion 10C of the peripheral portion 10B of the lower hole portion 10A is, when the exit between the punch 22 and the pad 26, the flange 14 is located radially outwardly of the pad 26. Therefore, the pad 26 by the pressure applied by the pad pressing device 32 is moved relatively apparatus bottom side of the punch 22. Thus, flange 14 is formed on the burring part 12.
[0030]
 Next, the operation and effect of this embodiment will be described in comparison with the burring method of the comparative example. In the burring method of Comparative Example, by using a burring processing apparatus not equipped with a pad 26 and the pad pressing apparatus 32 of the present embodiment, it is subjected to burring the material metal plate 10. In the following burring apparatus of the comparative example of the members has the same configuration as the burring apparatus 20 of the present embodiment, it is denoted by the same reference numerals.
[0031]
 As shown in FIG. 4A, in the burring method of the comparative example, as in the present embodiment, the upper surface of the punch surface 22B and the holder 24 of the punch 22 is below flush or top. In this state, it placed (set) the material metal plate 10 formed of the lower hole 10A on the holder 24. Furthermore, to move the die 28 to the apparatus bottom or raising the holder 24, to hold the material the metal plate 10 by the die 28 and the holder 24.
[0032]
 Then, as shown in Figure 4B, to move the punch 22 by the moving device 30 to a relatively apparatus upper against the die 28 and the holder 24. Or moving the die 28 and the holder 24 to the device bottom by the mobile device 34. At this time, the peripheral edge portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A of the material metal sheet 10, is extruded into the apparatus the upper by the punch 22, the flange 14 is formed on the material the metal plate 10.
[0033]
 Here, in the burring process, for forming the tubular flange 14 is extruded peripheral portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A formed in the material metal sheet 10 by the punch 22, the tip portion of the flange 14 after molding (hereinafter referred referred to as "tip 14A".) it is stretched in the circumferential direction of the flange 14. That is, the molding of the flange 14 by the punch 22 is a so-called stretch flangeability (be formed into an extended state the flange). Then, the material metal sheet 10 has a tensile strength of more than 440 MPa (in this embodiment, 590 MPa) and high strength steel sheet, the ductility of the material metal sheet 10 is relatively low. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 5, the high strength steel sheet and a tensile strength 590MPa plate thickness 2.9 mm, when subjected to burring of the comparative example of the hole expanding ratio 0.67 cracking the tip portion 14A of the flange 14 after molding (see a portion of FIG. 5) is generated.
[0034]
 In contrast, in the burring process of the first embodiment, as described above, the peripheral edge portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A in the material metal plate 10, the plate thickness direction of the material metal sheet 10 by the punch 22 and the pad 26 while pressing to form a flange 14 on. Under hydrostatic pressure imparting compressive force from the surrounding material, it is known that the ductility of the material is increased. Thus, by compressing the peripheral portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A in the material metal plate 10, it is possible to increase the ductility at the peripheral portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A at the time of molding the flange 14. In the present embodiment, the peripheral edge portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A in the material metal plate 10 are pressurized in the thickness direction of the material metal sheet 10 by the punch 22 and the pad 26. Accordingly, since the acts thickness direction of the compressive force to the peripheral portion 10B of the lower hole 10A, it is possible to the peripheral edge portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A and the pseudo hydrostatic pressure. Therefore, as compared with the comparative example, it is possible to form the flange 14 in a state of high ductility of the peripheral portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A in the material metal plate 10. In other words, in the burring method of this embodiment, as compared with the comparative example, it is possible to perform high stretch flangeability of critical hole expansion rate. As a result, it is possible to suppress the even using a relatively low material ductility, such as high-strength steel sheet, cracks on the tip portion 14A of the flange 14 after molding occurs. Thus, the shape of the punch 22 without the shape corresponding to the lower hole 10A of the material metal plate 10, it is possible to suppress cracking at the tip 14A of the flange 14 after molding. Note that under hydrostatic pressure, when brought into flooded material, but refers to a state where uniform pressure is applied to the material from the surrounding material by water pressure, in this disclosure, without flooding the material, large if the state that applies a compressive force from the surrounding under pressure in the material is referred to as "under hydrostatic pressure."
[0035]
 Further, in the burring process of the first embodiment, at least the end portion 10C of the peripheral portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A in the material metal sheet 10, pressed in the thickness direction of the material metal sheet 10 by the punch 22 and the pad 26 while to form a flange 14. Therefore, it is possible to form the flange 14 in a state of high ductility of the end portion 10C of the peripheral portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A in the material metal plate 10, that the crack in the distal end portion 14A of the flange 14 after molding occurs it can be further suppressed.
[0036]
 Then, according to the burring method of the first embodiment, and the tensile strength at 590MPa plate thickness with respect to high strength steel sheet of 2.9 mm, subjected to burring processing to the hole expanding ratio 0.67 also, cracks at the tip portion 14A of the flange 14 after molding has been confirmed that not occur. Furthermore, the tensile strength thickness and at 980MPa even for high-strength steel sheet of 2.9 mm, a crack in the distal end portion 14A of the flange 14 after molding has been confirmed that not occur.
[0037]
 In the first embodiment, the initial second step, the peripheral edge portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A in the material metal plate 10 are pressurized in the thickness direction of the material metal sheet 10 by the punch 22 and the pad 26 . Therefore, from the forming initial flange 14 by the punch 22, it can be molded flange 14 while increasing the ductility of the peripheral portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A in the material metal plate 10. Accordingly, cracks can be effectively suppressed at the tip 14A of the flange 14 after molding.
[0038]
 Furthermore, in the first embodiment, by pressurizing the peripheral portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A in the material metal sheet 10 by the punch 22 and the pad 26 can be suppressed cracking at the tip 14A of the flange 14. Therefore, as has been burring method described in the background art, without the shape corresponding to the lower hole 10A to the shape of the punch 22 in the material metal sheet 10, it can be suppressed cracking at the tip 14A of the flange 14. Thus, cracking of the suppression in the tip portion 14A of the flange 14, it is possible to realize a high device configuration versatility.
[0039]
(Second Embodiment)
 Hereinafter, a burring method of the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. In the second embodiment, it is subjected to burring the material metal plate 10 with a different device than the burring apparatus 20 of the first embodiment. Hereinafter, described burring apparatus 50 of the second embodiment, will next be described burring method of the second embodiment.
[0040]
(Burring apparatus 50)
 as shown in FIG. 6, the burring apparatus 50 is configured similarly to the first embodiment of the burring apparatus 20 with the following exceptions. In the following description, the burring apparatus 50, parts that are configured similarly to the burring apparatus 20 are denoted by the same reference numerals.
[0041]
 The punch surface 22B of the punch 22, a substantially disc-shaped spacer 52 (also referred to as shim) is provided, the spacer 52 is fixed to the punch 22. The spacer 52 is disposed on the punch 22 and coaxially, the outer diameter D6 of the spacer 52 is smaller than the inner diameter d of the lower hole 10A of the material metal sheet 10. Thus, in the installed state the material metal plate 10 to the burring apparatus 50 has a configuration in which the spacer 52 inside the lower hole 10A of the material metal sheet 10 is arranged. Further, in the above installation condition, the spacer 52 is interposed between the punch 22 and the pad 26.
[0042]
 Further, the thickness t of the spacer 52 is the predetermined thickness thinner than the thickness of the material metal sheet 10 (in this embodiment, the thickness of the plate thickness t is the material the metal plate 10 of the spacer 52 (2. about 66% of 9mm) (a 1.9mm)). That is, in a state in which the material metal plate 10 is installed to the burring apparatus 50, the spacer 52 does not protrude into the apparatus above the upper surface of the material metal sheet 10. Further, the thickness t of the spacer 52, the clearance C is smaller than the radial punch 22 and the die 28. The predetermined thickness of the spacer 52 may calculate the like simulating the reduction in thickness of the flange 14 from the hole expanding ratio of the flange 14 in burring, are determined based on the thickness of the flange 14 of the rear plate thickness reduction that. Specifically, the thickness t of the spacer 52 is slightly thinner thickness relative to the thickness of the flange 14 of the decreased thickness. That is, although details will be described later, the thickness t of the spacer 52 is greater with respect to the plate thickness of the flange 14 after plate thickness reduction, in the later of the second step of the burring process to be described later, the pads 26 and pressure drops for the material metal sheet 10 by punching 22. On the other hand, the thickness t of the flange 14, when the extremely thin compared to the thickness of the flange 14 of the back plate thickness reduction may impose vent to the tip portion 14A of the flange 14 after molding occurs. Therefore, the thickness t of the street spacer 52 is slightly thinner thickness relative to the thickness of the flange 14 of the decreased thickness.
[0043]
 Next, a description will be given burring method of the second embodiment. Burring method of the second embodiment, like the first embodiment, the first step of an example of the "placement step", a second step of an example of the "extrusion process", Yu doing.
[0044]
 As shown in FIG. 6, in a first step, the punch 22 is positioned on one side in the thickness direction of the material metal plate 10, the side opposite to the one side in the thickness direction of the material metal plate 10 (the other side) as the pad 26 is located, the material metal sheet 10 is arranged.
 The upper surface and the flush punch surface 22B and the holder 24 of the punch 22 or the punch surface 22B, is below the upper surface of the holder 24. In this state, it placed (set) the material metal plate 10 formed of the lower hole 10A on the holder 24. Specifically, the pilot hole 10A of the material metal sheet 10 is in a state of being placed on the punch 22 and the coaxial installation material metal plate 10 on the holder 24 to (set). Further, at this time, along with the spacer 52 inside the lower hole 10A of the material metal sheet 10 is arranged, the spacer 52 is not protruded device above the top surface of the material metal sheet 10.
[0045]
 Then, moving the die 28 to the apparatus bottom or raising the holder 24, to hold the material the metal plate 10 by the die 28 and the holder 24. Specifically, the portion other than the peripheral portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A in the material metal plate 10 is sandwiched by the die 28 and the holder 24. Instead of moving the die 28 to the device bottom, raising the holder 24 may sandwich the material metal plate 10 in the die 28 and the holder 24.
[0046]
 Further, in this state, the pad 26 is moved to the apparatus lower by pad pressing device 32 presses the peripheral edge portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A in the material metal sheet 10 downward. Further, the punch 22 is to be in contact with the underside of the material metal plate 10, raising the punch 22 until it contacts the material metal plate 10. At this time, since the spacer 52 does not protrude into the apparatus above the upper surface of the material metal sheet 10, between the pad surface 26A of the upper surface and the pad 26 of the spacer 52, a gap is formed. Thus, the peripheral edge portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A in the material metal plate 10, by the pad 26 and the punch 22 is pressurized in the vertical direction of the apparatus (the thickness direction of the material metal plate 10). That is, in the second embodiment, in a first step, the peripheral edge portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A in the material metal sheet 10 is pressed by the pad 26 and the punch 22. In other words, the initial second step described below, the peripheral edge portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A in the material metal sheet 10 is pressed by the pad 26 and the punch 22.
[0047]
 In the second step, from the state shown in FIG. 6, against the pressure applied by the pad pressing device 32 is moved into the apparatus upward against the die 28 and the holder 24 of the punch 22 by the moving device 30. Alternatively, while holding the material metal plate 10 in the die 28 and the holder 24, the die 28 is lowered by the moving device 34. At this time, while a pressurized state for the peripheral portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A of the material metal sheet 10 is maintained by the punch 22 and the pad 26, the punch 22 and the pad 26 is moved to the apparatus upward against the die 28 and the holder 24 . Further, at this time, the peripheral edge portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A of the material metal sheet 10 which is pressurized by the punch 22 and the pad 26, while being extruded into the apparatus the upper by the punch 22, will be formed in a tubular shape (see FIG. 7 ). And, although not shown, the end of the second step, the end portion 10C of the peripheral portion 10B of the lower hole portion 10A is, exits between the punch 22 and the pad 26, the peripheral edge of the prepared hole 10A of the material metal sheet 10 pressurized by the punch 22 and the pad 26 for the section 10B is released. Further, the peripheral edge portion 10B of the lower hole portion 10A is, after exit between the punch 22 and the pad 26, the punch 22 is inserted into the flange 14. Further, the end portion 10C of the peripheral portion 10B of the lower hole portion 10A is, when the exit between the punch 22 and the pad 26, the flange 14 is located radially outwardly of the pad 26, by the pad pressing device 32 pressurized pad 26 is moved relatively apparatus bottom side of the punch 22 by the pressure.
[0048]
 Thus, also in the second embodiment, the peripheral edge portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A in the material metal plate 10, while being pressed by the punch 22 and the pad 26, the flange 14 is formed on the material the metal plate 10. Thus, also in the second embodiment, as in the first embodiment, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of cracks at the tip 14A of the flange 14.
[0049]
 In the second embodiment, the spacer 52 to the punch surface 22B of the punch 22 is fixed, a spacer 52 is interposed between the punch 22 and the pad 26. Thus, the distal end portion 14A of the flange 14 after molding, that scrap is generated can be suppressed. This point will be described in comparison with the first embodiment.
[0050]
 In the first embodiment, no spacer 52 is provided on the punch surface 22B of the punch 22. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 8, the end of the second step, when the end portion 10C of the peripheral portion 10B of the lower hole portion 10A is, it exits between the punch 22 and the pad 26, the pad 26 is a pad pressure device 32 by moving the relative device lower relative punch 22. Then, when the movement to the device below the pad 26, the outer peripheral edge of the pad surface 26A of the pad 26 acts to shear the substantially entire inner circumferential surface of the prepared hole 10A of the material metal sheet 10 (in FIG. 8 Referring b portion shown). Thus, by the inner peripheral surface of the prepared hole 10A of the material metal sheet 10 is sheared, or caused filamentous scrap (shear Kas) is on the tip portion 14A of the flange 14 after molding, the tip end surface of the flange 14 there is a possibility that shear marks remain. In addition, when scrap is generated, the punch 22 and pad 26 by scrap is likely damaged. Then, in the first embodiment, although the cracks on the tip portion 14A of the flange 14 does not occur, it was confirmed that some scrap is generated.
[0051]
 In contrast, in the second embodiment, the spacer 52 is provided on the punch surface 22B of the punch 22. At the end of the second step, the end portion 10C of the peripheral portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A, when exiting between the punch 22 and the pad 26, like the above, the punch 22 pad 26 by the pad pressure device 32 moving relatively to device lower relative. However, in the second embodiment, since the spacer 52 is provided between the punch 22 and the pad 26, as compared with the first embodiment, the relative movement amount is small with respect to the punch 22 of the pad 26 . Therefore, the outer peripheral edge of the pad surface 26A of the pad 26 can be prevented from shearing the entire inner peripheral surface of the prepared hole 10A of the material metal sheet 10. Thus, the scum vent to the tip portion 14A of the flange 14 after molding (shear residue) can be prevented from occurring, it is possible to reduce the shearing trace at the tip face of the flange 14. Further, by suppressing the generation of scrap, it is possible to prevent the punch 22 and pad 26 by scrap being damaged.
[0052]
 Then, in the second embodiment, 2.5mm plate thickness t, 2.0 mm, was subjected to experiments with a spacer 52 which is varied with 1.9 mm, even in the spacer 52 in any thickness, that there is no occurrence of scrap it has been confirmed. Incidentally, in the case where the thickness t of the spacer 52 and 1.9 mm (predetermined thickness), which crack the tip portion 14A of the flange 14 does not occur, 2.5mm plate thickness t of the spacer 52, 2. when a 0mm, the cracking was confirmed at the tip portion 14A of the flange 14. This is because, as described above, when forming the flange 14 by the punch 22, the flange 14 is flanged elongation, thickness of the flange 14 is reduced as compared with the plate thickness of the material metal plate 10 before forming. The thickness t of the spacer 52 is greater with respect to the plate thickness of the flange 14 after plate thickness reduction, the end portion 10C of the peripheral portion 10B of the lower hole 10A, between the punch 22 and the pad 26 before exiting, pad surface 26A of the pad 26 is in contact with the upper surface of the spacer 52, pressure against the material metal plate 10 by the pad 26 and the punch 22 is lowered. Therefore, thicker 2.5mm than the plate thickness of the plate thickness predetermined spacer 52, when a 2.0mm is cracking occurs in the distal end portion 14A of the flange 14. Thus, in consideration of the thickness of the flange 14 of the rear plate thickness reduction, by setting appropriately the thickness of the spacer 52 to a predetermined thickness, while preventing cracking at the tip 14A of the flange 14, scrap it is possible to suppress the occurrence.
[0053]
 In the second embodiment, the outer diameter D5 of the pad 26 is the same dimension as the outer diameter D3 of the punch 22. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 7, in a second step, it is possible to end portion 10C of the peripheral portion 10B of the lower hole 10A to slow the timing escaping between the punch 22 and the pad 26. Thus, to the vicinity of the molding completion of the flange 14 by the punch 22, it is possible to pressurize the raw material metal plate 10 by the pad 26 and the punch 22. Thus, it is possible to further suppress the cracking at the tip 14A of the flange 14. Incidentally, the same effect as the above can be obtained even in the configuration of the first embodiment.
[0054]
 Further, the outer diameter D5 of the pad 26, by the outer diameter D3 than the dimension of the punch 22, can be suppressed by the above-mentioned scrap is generated. That is, the outer diameter D5 of the pad 26 by the outer diameter D3 than the dimension of the punch 22, and upon completion of the forming flange 14 by the punch 22, and the end portion 10C of the peripheral portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A punch 22 pad and when exiting between 26, but substantially the same time. Thus, when the pad 26 is moved to the device lower, peripheral edge portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A of the material metal sheet 10 is molded been moved radially outward of the punch 22 as the flange 14. Thus, the outer peripheral edge of the pad surface 26A of the pad 26 are prevented from shearing the inner peripheral surface of the prepared hole 10A of the material metal sheet 10. Therefore, it is possible to further suppress the generation of scrap.
[0055]
 In the second embodiment, the thickness t of the spacer 52 is smaller than the clearance C in the radial direction of the punch 22 and the die 28, but the thickness t may be not clearance C or more. In this case, it is possible to squeeze simultaneously flange and burring.
[0056]
(Modification of the pad 26)
 Next, with reference to FIG. 9, a description will be given of a variation of the pad 26. 9, illustrated as an example of applying the present modification to the burring apparatus 20 of the first embodiment. Further, in FIG. 9, parts that are configured in the same manner as the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals. In this modification, the inclined surface 26A1 is formed in the radially outer portion of the pad surface 26A of the pad 26 (the portion of the outer peripheral side). The inclined surface 26A1 is inclined to the device upward (direction away from the punch 22) as it approaches the radially outer pad surface 26A. Then, in the state where the holding material metal plate 10 with the punch 22 and the pad 26, the end portion 10C of the peripheral portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A of the material metal sheet 10 comes into contact with the inclined surface 26A1. This makes it possible to maintain the first step to the end of the second step, the sandwiched state between the punch 22 and the pad 26 relative to the end 10C of the lower hole 10A at the material metal plate 10.
[0057]
 That is, when machining the flange 14 to the material metal plate 10, sheet thickness reduction rate of the end portion 10C of the lower hole 10A at the material metal sheet 10 is considered to be the most increased. Then, as in the first embodiment and the second embodiment, in the state where the nip the peripheral edge portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A in the material metal plate 10 in a flat-shaped pad surface 26A and the punch surface 22B, at the end of the second step, there is a possibility that the gap between the micro occurs between the end portion 10C of the pad surface 26A and the lower hole 10A. In this case, the punch by 22 and the pad 26, there is a possibility that it becomes impossible to effectively sandwich the end portion 10C of the lower hole 10A. In contrast, by forming an inclined surface 26A1 to the pad surface 26A, the inclined surface 26A1 and the punch surface 22B, by holding the end portion 10C of the lower hole 10A at the material metal plate 10, the first step until the end of the second step, it is possible to maintain the sandwiched state between the punch 22 and the pad 26 relative to the end 10C of the lower hole 10A at the material metal plate 10. This allows effectively suppressing the occurrence of cracks at the tip 14A of the flange 14. Incidentally, in the case of applying the modification to the second embodiment will configure the spacer 52 is fixed to the punch surface 22B of the punch 22.
[0058]
 In the first embodiment and the second embodiment, the initial second step, and pressurizing the peripheral portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A in the material metal sheet 10 by the punch 22 and the pad 26. That is, from the viewpoint of increasing the ductility of the material metal sheet 10 during the molding of the flange 14, it is desirable to apply pressure from the initial second step the material metal sheet 10, material metal plate by punching 22 and the pad 26 10 start timing of the pressure applied to may be slow. That is, from the middle of the second step may be pressurized peripheral portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A in the material metal sheet 10 by the punch 22 and the pad 26. For example, at the beginning of the second step may be a gap between the pad surface 26A and the material metal plate 10 of the pad 26. In this case, in the second step, that the punch 22 is moved to the device upper peripheral portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A together with the punch 22 is pushed into the apparatus above, the peripheral portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A pad 26 It abuts. Thus, from the middle of the second step, the peripheral edge portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A in the material metal sheet 10 is pressed by the punch 22 and the pad 26. That is, at least, during a period from after a predetermined period starting extrusion punch 22 relative to the material the metal plate 10 to the peripheral edge portion 10B of the prepared hole 10A exits between the punch 22 and the pad 26, the prepared hole by the punch 22 and the pad 26 a peripheral portion 10B of 10A may be configured to pressurize.
[0059]
 Then, in the first embodiment, was conducted an experiment of varying the gap, the gap is up to 0 mm ~ 3 mm, crack tip 14A of the flange 14 has been confirmed that not occur. On the other hand, when the 4mm clearance is cracking at the tip portion 14A of the flange 14 it was confirmed to occur. That is, the material and thickness of the material metal sheet 10, in consideration of the hole expanding ratio of the flange 14, at the beginning of the second step, a gap is provided between the pad surface 26A and the material metal plate 10 of the pad 26 it may be.
[0060]

Furthermore, in the second embodiment, the outer diameter D5 of the pad 26 is the same dimension as the outer diameter D3 of the punch 22. Alternatively, in the second embodiment, the outer diameter D5 of the pad 26, and may be less outer diameter D3 of the punch 22 at the outer diameter D4 or more punch surface 22B. That is, to the extent that debris vent to the tip portion 14A of the flange 14 does not occur, the outer diameter D5 of the pad 26 may be changed. First embodiment, in either of the second embodiment, the outer diameter D5 of the pad 26 has an outer diameter D4 or more punch faces 22B, it is preferably not more than the outer diameter D3 of the punch 22. To as long as possible reduction of the material metal sheet 10 in the burring in the punch 22 and the pad 26 has an outer diameter D5 of the pad 26 or more is required outside diameter D4 of the punch surface 22B. However, the outer diameter D5 and a greater than an outer diameter D4, in the case where the outer diameter D5 and an outer diameter D4 equals the time that pressure the material metal plate 10 does not change. When taking out the burring part 12 from the burring apparatus 20 or burring apparatus 50, to avoid the tip portion 14A and the pad 26 of the flange interferes, outer diameter D5 is preferably less than or equal to the outer diameter D3.
[0061]
