Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a mould, in particular to a mould structure with a sliding block pulling off and automatically breaking a pouring gate. Background Art

[0002] In the modern injection molding process, the requirements for production efficiency and product appearance are getting higher and higher. While improving production efficiency, the product appearance quality requirements must be guaranteed. Therefore, the automated production of molds has emerged, that is, the product and the runner are automatically separated when the mold is opened and ejected. At present, there are three ways of automated mold production: latent gate, point gate and hot runner directly on the product. However, many products cannot use the above three gate methods due to structural and appearance requirements, and can only use the side gate method.

[0003] However, in the prior art, the product and the runner cannot be separated when the side gate is used for injection molding and mold opening and ejection, that is, the runner and the product are connected through the gate, so secondary processing is required to separate the product from the runner. The secondary processing has the following defects: workers need to trim the gate, which is labor-intensive and greatly reduces efficiency; there will be residue or lack of glue at the separation of the product and the runner during the secondary processing, and the appearance quality of the product will be affected if the gate is trimmed unsightly, and the product scrap rate will also increase.
