    [0043] The following clearly and completely describes the technical scheme in the embodiments of the present disclosure with reference to the attached figures in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Apparently, the described embodiments are merely a part rather than all of the embodiments of the present disclosure. Based on the embodiment in the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by the ordinary technical staff in the art under the premise of without contributing creative labor belong to the scope protected by the present disclosure.

    [0044] The present disclosure aims to provide an impact forming device and method for local small features on a metal thin-walled curved-surface part so as to solve the problems in the prior art, and the impact forming device for local small features is convenient to produce and operate, low in production cost, high in production efficiency and good in forming effect and can be formed and used in extreme environments.

    [0045] To make the foregoing objective, features and advantages of the present disclosure clearer and more comprehensible, the present disclosure is further described in detail below with reference to the attached figures and specific embodiments.

    Embodiment I

    [0046] As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the impact forming device 100 for local small features on a metal thin-walled curved-surface part provided by the embodiment comprises impact forming dies 1, impact loading units 2 and a forming supporting die 3, wherein

    [0047] the impact forming die 1 is provided with an impact forming part 4, and the impact forming part 4 is a convex part corresponding to a local small feature;

    [0048] the forming supporting die 3 can support and fix a metal thin-walled curved-surface part 10 without forming local small features, and the forming supporting die 3 is provided with concave parts 5 matched with the impact forming parts 4; and

    [0049] the impact loading unit 2 comprises a guide rail 6, an explosive ball 7 and a detonating block 8, the detonating block 8 and the explosive ball 7 are both arranged in the guide rail 6, the explosive ball 7 can be triggered through the detonating block 8 to apply an instantaneous impact load to the impact forming die 1, and under the impact loading of the impact loading units 2, the impact forming parts 4 can impact the metal thin-walled curved-surface part 10 without forming local small features under the matching action of the concave parts 5 to form the local small features.

    [0050] During impact forming of the local small features of the metal thin-walled curved-surface part, the metal thin-walled curved-surface part 10 without forming local small features is supported and fixed by using the forming supporting die 3, and the forming supporting die 3 can be of a structure in an integral forming die when the metal thin-walled curved-surface part is integrally formed (the local small features are not formed), for example, a male die or a female die in the integral forming die can be adopted for supporting and fixing the metal thin-walled curved-surface part, correspondingly, the concave parts 5 matched with the impact forming parts 4 are arranged in the male die or the female die in the integral forming die, then the impact forming dies 1 are assembled to the positions corresponding to the concave parts, the explosive ball 7 is triggered through the detonating block 8, shock waves 12 generated by the explosive ball 7 instantly act on the impact forming dies 1, the impact forming parts 4 rapidly impact the metal thin-walled curved-surface part 10 without forming local small features under the matching action of the concave parts 5, so that the local small features are formed, and the impact forming state of the local small features is as shown in FIG. 2. The impact loading units 2 provide impact loads by adopting energy generated by instantaneous explosion of the explosive balls 7, the impact loading units 2 are small in size, convenient to operate and free of extra special equipment, and the forming device can be conveniently matched with the forming supporting die 3, so that forming of local small features in various forms is completed; because the relatively independent explosive balls 7 are adopted as the sources of the impact loads, the explosive balls are easy to prepare, the ammunition amount is easy to adjust, and expensive special equipment is not needed, the cost is very low; because the impact loads drive the impact forming dies 1 with a very small size through energy generated by instantaneous explosion of the explosive balls 7, a very concentrated area on the blank can be loaded, the problem that other adjacent areas are unnecessarily deformed due to the fact that loads are not concentrated in a traditional loading mode is avoided, and the forming effect is good; and because the impact loads are instantly applied by the impact loading units 2 which are small in size and easy to operate, the device does not need to be tightly connected with a die tool and is in long-time contact with the die tool, so that the impact forming device and method for local small features can be used in special conditions of high temperature, low temperature, high pressure and the like, and solves the problem that equipment and tools adopted in an existing method cannot be used in extreme environments.

    [0051] In the embodiment, the guide rail 6 is arranged to be a linear cylinder, and the detonating block 8 is arranged to be a firing pin. The firing pin can provide initial acceleration by a high-pressure shoot nail device (such as a nail gun). The firing pin moves in the linear cylinder to fire the explosive ball 7, the firing direction of the explosive ball 7 is consistent with the acting direction of the explosive ball 7 applying the impact load, and impact forming operation with local small features is facilitated.

    [0052] When the forming supporting die 3 is under the condition of high temperature, ultralow temperature or high pressure, the impact forming die 1 can be embedded into the forming supporting die 3 in advance, the impact loading units 2 make contact with the impact forming dies 1 in a short time and completes firing, tight connection and long-time contact with the die tool are not needed, and therefore the forming supporting die 3 can be used in the special conditions of high temperature, low temperature, high pressure and the like, and the problem that equipment and tools adopted in the existing method cannot be used in extreme environments is solved.

    Embodiment II

    [0053] As shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, the embodiment provides an impact forming device 100 for local small features on a metal thin-walled curved-surface part, and the difference from the first embodiment lies in that the guide rail 6 is arranged to be a linear cylinder, and the detonating block 8 is arranged to be a firing pin. The firing pin can provide initial acceleration by a high-pressure shoot nail device (such as a nail gun). The guide rail 6 is arranged to be a curve cylinder, the steel ball moves in the curve cylinder to fire the explosive ball 7, the fired direction of the explosive ball 7 is inconsistent with the acting direction of the explosive ball 7 applying impact load, and therefore impact loading can be conducted on narrow spaces, the back faces of die tools and shielded parts.

    Embodiment III

    [0054] As shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, the embodiment provides an impact forming device 100 for local small features on a metal thin-walled curved-surface part, and the difference from the first embodiment lies in that fixed blocks 9 are arranged on the forming supporting die 3 and are used for fixing the metal thin-walled curved-surface part 10 without forming local small features on the forming supporting die 3. In the embodiment, the forming supporting die 3 specifically can be a supporting female die 11, the supporting female die 11 is provided with concave parts 5 matched with the impact forming parts 4, the metal thin-walled curved-surface part 10 without forming local small features is supported and fixed in the supporting female die 11 through the supporting female die 11 and the fixed blocks 9, and the impact forming dies 1 are assembled at the positions corresponding to the concave parts 5, so that the impact loading units 2 apply the impact loads to the impact forming dies 1 so as to form the local small features.

    [0056] S1, analyzing the overall shape and local small features of the metal thin-walled curved-surface part, and designing and machining a forming supporting die 3 and impact forming dies 1;

    [0057] S2, supporting and fixing the metal thin-walled curved-surface part 10 without forming local small features by using the forming supporting die 3; and

    [0059] As shown in FIG. 7 and FIG. 8, when the local small features are concave features, the inner wall of the metal thin-walled curved-surface part 10 without forming local small features is supported through the forming supporting die 3, and the impact loading units 2 perform impact loading inwards from the outer side of the metal thin-walled curved-surface part 10 without forming local small features through the impact forming dies 1. The forming support die 3 specifically can be a supporting male die 13, the supporting male die 13 is provided with concave parts 5, the angles and directions of the impact loading units 2 can be predetermined to work in cooperation with the forming supporting die 3 according to the concave position required to be formed.

    [0060] As shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, when the local small features are convex features, the outer wall of the metal thin-walled curved-surface part 10 without forming local small features is supported through the forming supporting die 3, and the impact loading units 2 perform impact loading outwards from the inner side of the metal thin-walled curved-surface part 10 without forming local small features through the impact forming dies 1. The angles and directions of the impact loading units 2 can be predetermined to work in cooperation with the forming supporting die 3 according to the convex position required to be formed.

    [0061] As shown in FIG. 9, when the local small features are a plurality of same local small features, a group of impact forming dies 1 and a group of impact loading units 2 are formed in sequence one by one. The impact loading unit 2 has the characteristics of universality, portability and operation convenience and is free of extra special equipment, and the forming device can be conveniently matched with the forming supporting die 3, so that forming of local small features in various forms is completed, and the production cost is greatly reduced.

    [0062] As shown in FIG. 10, when the local small features are a plurality of different local small features, multiple groups of impact forming dies 1 and multiple groups of impact loading units 2 perform simultaneous loading at the same time. The multiple groups of impact loading units 2 can fire the explosive balls 7 at almost the same moment, and the generated impact loads almost simultaneously act on the metal thin-walled curved-surface part 10 without forming local small features, so that deformation interference of adjacent areas possibly generated during sequential loading is avoided.
