PRESS FORMING METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240109113 titled 'PRESS FORMING METHOD
Simplified Explanation
The press forming method described in the patent application involves forming an intermediate formed body with an edge radius larger than the target formed body, and then pressing the intermediate formed body to form the target formed body. The intermediate formed body includes slack portions that bulge more outward in the direction of the edge radius than the target formed body.
- The method involves pressing a plate material to form an intermediate formed body with specific characteristics.
- The intermediate formed body includes slack portions that bulge more outward than the target formed body.
- The patent application focuses on the unique process of forming the target formed body with specific ridge line portions.
Potential Applications
The technology described in the patent application could be applied in the manufacturing industry for producing components with precise ridge line formations.
Problems Solved
This technology solves the problem of forming complex ridge line portions with specific edge radii in press forming processes.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include improved precision in forming ridge line portions and the ability to create components with unique geometries.
Potential Commercial Applications
The technology could be utilized in industries such as automotive, aerospace, and consumer electronics for manufacturing components with intricate ridge line designs.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be traditional press forming methods that do not involve the specific characteristics of the intermediate formed body described in the patent application.

Original Abstract Submitted
in a press forming method including pressing a plate material to form an intermediate formed body including an intermediate ridge line portion with an edge radius larger than an edge radius of a ridge line portion of a target formed body, and pressing the intermediate formed body to form the target formed body including the ridge line portion, in a cross section of the intermediate formed body along a direction orthogonal to an extending direction of the ridge line portion, the intermediate formed body includes first and second slack portions on both sides of an included-angle center line, the first and second slack portions bulging more outward in a direction of the edge radius than the target formed body, the included-angle center line bisecting an angle between first and second sides that are located on both sides of the ridge line portion of the target formed body.
