Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of radar shell preparation, and in particular to a process for preparing a millimeter wave radar shell with wave transmission and wave absorption functions. Background Art

[0002] Millimeter wave radar is a radar that works in the millimeter wave band. The wavelength of millimeter waves is between microwaves and centimeter waves, so millimeter wave radar has some advantages of microwave radar and photoelectric radar. Radar housing generally refers to the radar cover used to protect the electrical components inside the radar. At present, most radar housings are made of composite materials, which have good wave transmission and wave absorption properties, thereby improving the accuracy of radar detection.

[0003] The structure and appearance of the millimeter-wave radar shell are relatively complex. In order to improve production efficiency, factories mostly need to use injection molding technology to obtain semi-finished injection molded parts during the production process, and then go through processes such as trimming, grinding, laminating and assembly to obtain finished parts.

[0004] Injection molding process will produce flash during the production process. Flash refers to the pressure inside the mold increases as the molten raw materials are injected into the mold during the injection molding process. When the internal pressure is greater than the clamping force, a small gap will appear at the joint of the two molds, causing excessive raw materials to flow into the gap. After the flash solidifies, it will form excess edge material on the periphery of the injection molded part, which needs to be cut and polished. Too much flash will cause a waste of raw materials, and because the millimeter-wave radar shell needs to have good wave transmission and absorption performance, the smoothness of the shell surface needs to be ensured, which requires reducing flash during the injection molding process to reduce the volume of excess edge material.

[0005] In the prior art, the millimeter-wave radar shell preparation process, during injection molding, mostly uses a hydraulic press to push the movable mold horizontally to achieve mold opening, closing and locking. This solution is not convenient for adjusting the size of the locking force according to the size of the internal pressure of the mold, which easily leads to increased overflow and reduces the wave transmission and absorption performance of the millimeter-wave radar shell.

[0044] like Figures 1 to 11 As shown:

[0045] A process for preparing a millimeter wave radar shell with wave-transmitting and wave-absorbing functions includes a base 1, an injection molding machine body 10, and a pair of molds 11. The base 1 is used to support the injection molding machine body 10. The injection molding machine body 10 is used to inject molten plastic into the mold 11. It also includes a fixed mold seat, a movable mold seat 13, a drive component 2, a clamping component 3, and a linkage component 4. The bottom of the fixed mold seat 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 1. The drive component 2 is used to drive the movable mold seat 13 to move horizontally on the top of the base 1, thereby realizing the opening and closing of the mold. The two molds 11 are detachably connected to the fixed mold seat 12 and the movable mold seat 13, respectively, so that the mold 11 can be easily replaced, and radar shells of different models can be prepared. The mold locking assembly 3 includes a connecting rod 30, a hook 36, a plurality of tension springs 37, a round rod 38 and a lifting mechanism 5. The connecting rod 30 is a bendable rod-shaped structure. One end of the connecting rod 30 is rotatably connected to the top of the fixed mold base 12. The hook 36 can be installed on the other end of the connecting rod 30 in an inclined and slidable manner. The tension spring 37 is installed on the connecting rod 30. The tension spring 37 is used to provide a pulling force upward to the hook 36. When the radar housing is injected, the two molds 11 are first installed on the movable mold base 13 and the fixed mold base 12 respectively, and the lifting mechanism is 5 is connected to the inside of one of the molds 11, and then the mold closing operation is performed. In the process of the movable mold base 13 approaching the fixed mold base 12, the hook 36 and the convex block on the top of the movable mold base 13 collide with each other, and one end of the connecting rod 30 is pushed upward. Under the action of gravity, the connecting rod 30 is bent, which facilitates the hook 36 to move from one end to the other end along the top of the movable mold base 13 and align with the position of the round rod 38 to prepare for mold locking. At the same time, the bendable structure of the connecting rod 30 also facilitates the lifting mechanism 5 to lift the middle part to increase the mold locking force. The round rod 38 can be installed on the fixed mold base 12 in a horizontally movable manner. The round rod 38 is engaged with the hook 36. After the mold closing is completed, the round rod 38 is moved horizontally to engage with the hook 36, and at the same time, the hook 36 is driven to slide in the direction away from the connecting rod 30. At this time, the end of the connecting rod 30 close to the hook 36 is pushed upward, and the tension spring 37 is stretched. The tension provided by the tension spring 37 can further lock the two molds 11. The lifting mechanism 5 is used to lift the middle part of the connecting rod 30 upward as the pressure in the mold 11 increases. As the injection molding proceeds, the pressure in the mold 11 increases, and the lifting mechanism 5 lifts the middle part of the connecting rod 30 upward, causing it to bend further. At the same time, the hook 36 continues to slide away from the connecting rod 30, and the tension spring 37 is further stretched, and the pulling force on the hook 36 is increased, so that the clamping force can be adjusted according to the internal pressure of the mold 11, thereby improving the quality of the injection-molded radar shell.The linkage assembly 4 is used to make the round rod 38 move horizontally to engage with the hook 36 after mold closing, including the following steps: S1, the two molds 11 are respectively installed on the fixed mold base 12 and the movable mold base 13, and the movable mold base 13 is pushed to move horizontally by the driving assembly 2 installed on the base 1 to open and close the mold. The base 1 is equipped with an injection molding machine body 10, which can inject molten plastic into the mold 11. S2, the base 1 is equipped with a clamping assembly 3, and the clamping assembly 3 locks the fixed mold base 12 and the movable mold base 13 to each other after mold closing. , to ensure the tightness of the mold closing, S3, a lifting mechanism 5 is arranged between the mold locking assembly 3 and the fixed mold base 12, which can adjust the locking force of the mold locking assembly 3 according to the pressure inside the mold 11 to avoid overflow, S4, the linkage mechanism is installed on the base 1, and the linkage mechanism is used to connect the driving assembly 2 and the mold locking assembly 3, and drive the round rod 38 to move and engage with the mold locking assembly 3 while closing the mold, ensuring that the mold is closed first and then locked, and unlocked before opening the mold, so as to prevent the movable mold base 13 and the mold locking assembly 3 from hindering each other's movement.

[0046] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown:

[0047] The lifting mechanism 5 includes a sealing tube 50, a piston 51 and a push rod 52. The sealing tube 50 is installed on the top of the fixed mold base 12. The bottom of the sealing tube 50 is connected to the inside of one of the molds 11. The piston 51 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the sealing tube 50. The bottom of the push rod 52 is fixedly connected to the top of the piston 51, and the top of the push rod 52 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the connecting rod 30. When the pressure in the mold 11 increases, the air is compressed and enters the sealing tube 50, and pushes the piston 51 to move to the top, and pushes the middle part of the connecting rod 30 to bend upward through the push rod 52, thereby increasing the clamping force.

[0048] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown:

[0049] The connecting rod 30 includes a connecting block 31, a rotating rod 32, a sleeve 33 and a pair of torsion springs 34, one end of the rotating rod 32 is rotatably connected to the top of the fixed mold base 12, the other end of the rotating rod 32 is rotatably connected to one end of the connecting block 31, the other end of the connecting block 31 is rotatably connected to one end of the sleeve 33, the hook 36 passes through the other end of the sleeve 33 and is slidably connected thereto, one end of the tension spring 37 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of one end of the sleeve 33 close to the connecting block 31, the other end of the tension spring 37 is fixedly connected to the hook 36, two torsion springs 34 are respectively sleeved on the periphery of the rotating shaft at both ends of the connecting block 31, one end of the torsion spring 34 is fixedly connected to the connecting block 31, and the other ends of the two torsion springs 34 are respectively fixedly connected to the top of the connecting rod 30 and the top of the sleeve 33. The connecting rod 30 can be bent by the rotational connection between the connecting block 31, the rotating rod 32 and the sleeve 33, and the bending of the connecting rod 30 is limited by a pair of torsion springs 34, so that it maintains a hook shape, which facilitates the locking of the hook 36 and the round rod 38. When the hook 36 is away from the connecting block 31, the tension spring 37 is stretched and maintains a tendency to rebound, thereby providing tension to the hook 36 for mold locking.

One end of the hydraulic rod 21 is fixedly connected to the fixed seat 20. The telescopic end of the hydraulic rod 21 is slidably connected to the movable die seat 13 through the linkage assembly 4. When the hydraulic rod 21 is working, its telescopic end pushes the movable die seat 13 to slide horizontally along the guide column 22, so that the mold opening and closing operation can be realized, and at the same time, the hook 36 can be moved to align with the round rod 38.

[0052] like Figures 1 to 11 As shown:

[0053] The linkage assembly 4 includes a cylinder 40, a support rod 41, a pair of racks 42, a gear 43 and a push rod 44. One end of the cylinder 40 is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the hydraulic rod 21, and the top of the other end of the cylinder 40 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support rod 41. The top of the support rod 41 is fixedly connected to the bottom of one of the racks 42. The two racks 42 are respectively located at the top and bottom of the gear 43. The rack 42 is meshed with the gear 43, and the top of the other rack 42 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the push rod 44. One end of the push rod 44 is fixedly connected to the round rod 38. An empty groove 130 is opened inside the movable mold base 13. The gear 43 is rotatably installed between the inner walls on both sides of the empty groove 130. The support rod 41 passes through the bottom wall of the empty groove 130 and is slidably connected thereto. The push rod 44 passes through the top wall of the empty groove 130 and is slidably connected thereto. A circular groove 131 is opened at one end of the movable mold base 13, and the circular groove 131 is plug-fitted with the cylinder 40. When the hydraulic rod 21 pushes the movable mold base 13 close to the fixed mold base 12, the cylinder 40 moves following the telescopic end of the hydraulic rod 21. When the mold is closed, the hydraulic rod 21 continues to move and pushes the cylinder 40 to insert into the circular groove 131. The cylinder 40 drives the rack 42 at the bottom to move horizontally toward the fixed mold base 12 through the support rod 41. Through the meshing transmission between the rack 42 and the gear 43, the gear 43 rotates and drives the top rack 42 to move horizontally away from the fixed mold base 12, so that the push rod 44 pushes the round rod 38 out to engage with the hook 36, and pushes the hook 36 to make it away from the fixed mold base 12, thereby completing the mold locking.

[0054] like Figures 1 to 11 As shown:

[0055] The linkage assembly 4 also includes a ring 45, a circular plate 46 and a thrust spring 47. The ring 45 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the cylinder 40 and is slidably connected thereto.

The ring 45 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the circular groove 131. One end of the thrust spring 47 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cylinder 40, and the other end of the thrust spring 47 is fixedly connected to the circular plate 46. When the hydraulic rod 21 pushes the movable mold base 13 to approach the fixed mold base 12, the telescopic end of the hydraulic rod 21 is connected to the movable mold base 13 through the ring 45, driving the movable mold base 13 to move. After the mold closing is completed, the movable mold base 13 is resisted and cannot move further. As the telescopic end of the hydraulic rod 21 continues to move, the cylinder 40 is pushed to insert into the circular groove 131, and the ring 45 moves around the cylinder 40. The thrust spring 47 is stretched, driving the push rod 44 to move and push the round rod 38 out to complete the mold locking, so that there is a sequence between the mold closing and the mold locking, ensuring that the hook 36 is accurately engaged with the round rod 38.

When the lifting mechanism 5 lifts the connecting block 31, the rotation of the rotating rod 32 will drive the connecting block 31 to move horizontally for a certain distance. By providing the fisheye groove 350 to absorb the travel of the connecting block 31, the push rod 52 and the connecting block 31 can be prevented from being locked with each other.

[0058] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown:

[0059] The top of the fixed mold base 12 is fixedly connected to the limiting rod 120, and the top of the limiting rod 120 contacts the bottom of the rotating rod 32. When the hook 36 is separated from the movable mold base 13 after the mold is opened, and the bottom of the connecting block 31 loses its supporting force, the connecting rod 30 rotates toward the bottom under the action of gravity.
