A processing method of titanium alloy closing end

Abstract: The invention discloses a processing method of a titanium alloy end socket. The invention is characterized in that a stamping component is protected by utilizing a clamping plate, a suitable ram head and a suitable lift-ring are selected, and the specified stamping temperature, the stamping speed and the stamping times are given to perform hot stamping processing to a work piece, and an inner profile and an outer profile of the product after the hot stamping is ensured to meet the requirement of subsequent processing; the hot processing is performed after the stamping. The invention mainly used for the processing of the titanium alloy end socket of the casing of a satellite tank, the end socket material processed is smooth, the shape is well, and the percent of pass is high.

Connection between a bolt, which has a head, and a metal sheet

Abstract: Known bolt/metal sheet connections can only be produced with a comparatively high outlay. The novel connection between a bolt and a metal sheet is to be producible in a simple and cost-effective manner. The invention consists in that depressions are provided as rotation-prevention means on the underside of the head, and in that the bore of the metal sheet is configured as a neck through-passage whose beaded edge is plastically deformed, by means of a stamping procedure, into the depressions of the head. The novel connection is suitable for non-releasable bolt or screw/metal sheet connections of all types.

Transient dynamical analysis of strain signals in sheet metal stamping processes

Abstract: On-line monitoring of stamping processes can be carried out based on various sensors, such as force, strain, acceleration, proximity, and acoustic emission sensors. The strain sensor signal is the most favourite because of its effectiveness and acquisition cost as well as it contains rich information about the stamping process. The key problem of stamping monitoring is how to extract features from the strain signal to effectively detect the faults. The strain signal, however, is a transient signal that depends on many factors. In this paper, it is intended to address some new methods to analyse the transient strain signal with the objective of decomposing it in order to understand the dynamics of the stamping process and extract a malfunction signal for fault detection. A latent process model method, which is a combination of a time-varying auto-regression model and a dynamic linear model, is initially presented. Continuous wavelet transforms and a new discrete wavelet transform (maximum overlap discrete wavelet transform) are then addressed to project the transient signal into a time scale plan to represent the dynamical behaviour in a different way. Empirical mode decomposition is finally employed to decompose the transient signal into a finite and often small number of intrinsic mode functions (IMF). The advantage of this new method is that it is adaptive and highly efficient. The performance of the methods employed in this paper is reviewed using two real strain signals in a sheet metal stamping process. It is found that these methods can efficiently provide the energy–frequency–time distribution of the transient strain signal.

Ink-retaining sealing article

Abstract: A stamping article which is capable of repeatedly stamping with liquid ink, said article consisting of: (1) a stamping member having relief characters with a stamping surface and having a porosity of 20 to 50%, which is of porous structure and is produced by sintering a fine powder which is obtained by pulverizing a porous thermoplastic resin, (2) a base member capable of storing liquid ink and having a porosity of 60 to 80%, said base member comprising at least one material selected from the group porous, plastic foamed materials and fibrous, reticulate fabrics, which materials are co-fusible or bondable with said thermoplastic resin powder, said base member having a porosity 10-40% higher than said stamping member so as to insure a smooth flow of ink therebetween, said stamping member being fused with said base member.
