Line Displacement Evaluation Method, Line Displacement Evaluation Device, Program And Recording Medium

Abstract: A line displacement evaluation method that evaluates line displacement that occurs in a press molded article during press molding whereby character lines are molded. The line displacement evaluation method is characterized by having: a cross section profile acquisition step in which a cross section profile of the press molded article is obtained said cross section profile being measured so as to traverse the character line molded in the press molded article; a quaternary differential function calculation step in which a quaternary differential function for the obtained cross section profile is calculated; and a line displacement evaluation step in which line displacement is evaluated on the basis of the calculated quaternary differential function for the cross section profile.

Specification

LINE DISPLACEMENT EVALUATION METHOD, LINE DISPLACEMENT EVALUATION DEVICE, PROGRAM, AND RECORDING MEDIUM [Technical Field] [0001] The present invention relates to a line displacement evaluation method, a line displacement evaluation device, a program, and a recording medium. More specifically, the present invention relates to a line displacement evaluation method, a line displacement evaluation device, a program, and a recording medium that evaluate line displacement occurring in a press-formed article in press forming of forming a character line. Priority is claimed on Japanese Patent Application No. 2014-163022, filed August 8, 2014, the content of which is incorporated herein by reference. [Background Art] [0002] In recent years, high designability are demanded for outer panels of automobiles. In order to satisfy such demands, a sharp character line may be formed on an outer panel. In order to realize a design at the time of designing, it is necessary to faithfully reproduce a surface adjacent to an R stop (a radius curve end or a boundary between a curve and a straight line) of a character line during press forming. However, an initial striking part between a stock plate in which a character line is formed, and a punch die protruding part may moves out of the R stop of the character line in a final product, depending on an amount by which the stock version, such as a steel sheet or an aluminum alloy plate, flows in from respective places of a crease suppressing part during press forming (positional displacement). As a result, a bending tendency remains in the external appearance of the outer panel in the vicinity of the initial striking part in the stock plate, irregularities remain outside the R stop of the character line after the press forming, and the external appearance quality of the outer panel is deteriorated. This is a line displacement (skid lines) phenomenon (see Non-Patent Document 1). [Citation List] [Patent Literature] [0003] Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent No. 5387491 Patent Document 2: Japanese Patent No. 4957291 [Non-Patent Document] [0004] Non-Patent Document 1: Shinya Nakano, Akira Sakai, Yasuo Yamada: Mazda Technical Review, No. 31 (2013), Pages 38 to 43 [Summary of Invention] [Technical Problem] [0005] Under the present circumstances, the degree of the line displacement is determined by sensory evaluation of a worker on the spot. In a case where the degree of the line displacement is small, products may be shipped even if the line displacement occurs. The criterion of the line displacement is not clarified, and there is a concern that variations may occur in products. [0006] As a technique of evaluating metal sheets after press forming, such as an outer panel, a technique of quantitatively evaluating surface deflection is disclosed in, for example, Patent Documents 1 and 2. However, the technique disclosed in Patent Sn = Lx(|H|/R)m -(2) Here, m is a weighting index that is determined in advance. 18. A computer-readable recording medium storing the program according to any one of claims 12 to 17.
