The multi-row product design doubles the production efficiency per unit time.

[0004] With regard to the above-mentioned related technologies, the inventor believes that while production efficiency is improved, new quality problems also arise. The most important new problem is that the local pressure of the die unloading plate on the multiple rows of products produced in each stroke during the stamping process is not the same, such as Figure 4 As shown, the pins subjected to small local pressure are deformed or twisted during the stamping process, thereby causing defects in the lead frame after stamping.

Utility Model Content

[0006] In order to solve the problem that the local pressures of the die unloading plate on the multi-row products produced by the stroke are not the same during the stamping process, which causes the pins with small local pressure to deform or twist during the stamping process, this solution changes the original side-by-side punching heads with the same height to a design with low ends and high middle, so as to offset the influence of the deformation of the die on the local pressure height of the upper die during the stamping process, thereby improving the stamping quality.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] The following is combined with Figure 1-Figure 5 This application is described in further detail.

[0023] The present application embodiment discloses a stamping die for producing a lead frame. Figure 1-Figure 5 A stamping die for producing a lead frame comprises an upper die 1 and a lower die 2, and a driving member 3 is installed between the lower die and the upper die, a plurality of stamping heads 101 are installed side by side at the bottom of the upper die 1, and the heights of the plurality of stamping heads 101 decrease from the middle to the outside, and two positioning members 4 for flexibly fixing the lead frame are symmetrically installed at both ends of the bottom of the upper die 1.

[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, when the upper mold is pressed downward and deformation or distortion occurs, the punch head 101 at the bottom of the lower mold is changed to a form that is high in the middle and gradually lowered on both sides. This can offset the effect of the mold deformation during the stamping process on the local pressure height of the upper mold, so that the local pressure on each row of product pins during stamping is improved from the original small pressure in the middle and large pressure on both sides to the same pressure in the middle and on both sides.

[0025] Reference Figure 1-Figure 2 The driving member 3 includes a base 301, the lower mold is connected to the base 301 by bolts, two stamping cylinders 302 are symmetrically installed on the base 301, the output shaft of the stamping cylinder 302 is connected to the upper cover plate 303, the upper cover plate 303 is welded to the upper mold, and four guide columns 304 are also welded to the upper part of the base 301, and the upper ends of the guide columns 304 are movably plugged into the upper cover plate 303.

[0026] By adopting the above technical solution, the upper mold is driven by the stamping cylinder 302 to quickly reciprocate and press downward, and at the same time, the guide column 304 plays a stabilizing and guiding role for the upper mold.

[0027] Reference Figure 2 The positioning member 4 includes a rubber seat 401, a plurality of grooves are formed inside the rubber seat 401, and a spring 402 is installed in the groove.

[0028] By adopting the above technical solution, during the downward movement of the upper mold, the rubber seat 401 can contact and flexibly abut the lead frame on the lower mold, and the rubber seat 401 is compressed to fix the lead frame during stamping, thereby ensuring the stability of the lead frame during stamping.

[0029] Reference Figure 2-Figure 3 A movable cavity is provided inside the lower mold, and a plurality of stamping grooves 201 matching the stamping head 101 are provided on the upper surface of the lower mold. The stamping grooves 201 are communicated with the movable cavity. A support member 5 for supporting the stamped area on the lead frame during stamping is installed in the movable cavity. The support member 5 includes a telescopic rod 501 connected to the movable cavity by bolts. A spring 2 502 is sleeved on the surface of the telescopic rod 501. A slide plate 503 movably installed in the movable cavity is connected to the top of the telescopic rod 501 by bolts. A plurality of supporting feet 504 movably engaged with the stamping grooves 201 are installed on the upper part of the slide plate 503.

[0030] By adopting the above technical solution: the support foot 504 is embedded in the stamping groove 201 on the upper surface of the lower mold, and the upper end surface of the support foot 504 is flush with the upper end surface of the lower mold. When the punch head 101 presses down to punch the lead frame, the support frame is pushed downward, and as the spring 2 502 is compressed, it can provide a stable support for the stamped part of the lead frame, making the stamped cross-section of this part smoother.

[0031] The implementation principle of a stamping die for lead frame production in an embodiment of the present application is as follows: the lead frame is transported between the upper die and the lower die by an external transport device, the upper die is pressed downward, the rubber seat 401 abuts against the lead frame, and the stamping head 101 abuts against the lead frame for stamping. The bottom end surface of the stamped part of the lead frame is supported by the supporting feet 504. When the upper die is partially deformed or twisted, the stamping head 101 at the bottom of the lower die is changed to a form with a middle high and two sides gradually lowered, which can offset the influence of the deformation of the die during the stamping process on the local pressure height of the upper die, so that the local pressure on each row of product pins during stamping is improved from the original small pressure in the middle and large pressure on the two sides to the same pressure in the middle and on the two sides.
