Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of molds, and in particular relates to a design and use technology of a mold. Background Art
[0002] In the electrical industry, thermosetting mold products are basically divided into three categories: shafts, bases, and others. Traditional compression molding uses two materials: DMC and SMC. DMC is bulk molding compound, and SMC is sheet molding compound. SMC has longer glass fiber than DMC. After the product is molded, the flash is thicker, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive to handle. It cannot be removed mechanically, which is not conducive to improving production efficiency.
[0003] BMC&SMC is a semi-dry molding intermediate material for manufacturing glass fiber reinforced thermosetting products. Due to the uniqueness of BMC&SMC thermosetting materials, the material is a bulk molding compound, which is pre-mixed into a paste by unsaturated polyester resin, low shrinkage or low profile additives, initiators, internal mold release agents, mineral fillers, etc., and then thickeners, colorants and other glass fibers of different lengths are added and stirred in a special material kettle. It cannot be directly injection molded like a traditional injection molding machine.
[0004] The difference between BMC&SMC thermosetting compression molds, transfer molds and injection molds is mainly reflected in the pouring system. The space front mold for installing the moving contact and spring at each pole of BMC&SMC thermosetting mold products needs to remove a set of inserts, and the front and rear molds are inserted into the mold. The moving contact passes through the shaft circular hole and the slider is removed for core pulling. Since the material is glass fiber solid, the flash is generated horizontally. During molding, the resin and filler will block the gap between the workpieces. The exhaust groove, insert groove, slider groove, etc. should be easy to clean. For places that cannot be cleaned, the parting surface structure and the flash brought out by the cold material groove should be considered in the design. It is difficult to disassemble and assemble after long-term use and cooling. In addition, the thermal expansion of the metal and the product precision requirements require that the matching gap between the workpieces should be fully considered during processing.

[0014] The slider mechanism slides toward the lower mold core until the two fit together, forming a closed cavity in the lower mold, and the delayed square guide pin passes through the opening to lock the slider mechanism.
[0015] According to the weight of BMC&SMC electrical products, materials are added by weight and heated to 150 degrees. The temperature of each area inside the mold is displayed in real time through the temperature probe sensor.

The lower template, the lower die core and the slider mechanism constitute the lower die. When the lower die is assembled, the slider mechanism slides toward the lower die core until the two fit together. The lower die forms a closed cavity and is fixed to the lower table of the machine tool.
[0023] According to the weight of BMC&SMC electrical products, materials are fed by weight, which can control the material quantity more accurately, reduce waste, reduce costs, reduce flash, and reduce the workload of de-flashing.

[0025] The electric heating holes are evenly distributed in the upper mold plate to evenly heat the mold and the material. Several temperature sensors are installed to detect the temperature at multiple points. The mold is heated through the electric heating holes. The BMC&SMC thermosetting plastic is in a molten state and enters the mold core cavity. The temperature of each area inside the mold is displayed in real time and heated to 150 degrees to prevent product deformation, cracks, and size errors. BMC&SMC electrical products are formed.
