[0028] In order to make the technical solution of the present invention better understood by the technical personnel in the field, and to make the above-mentioned features, purposes and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with the embodiments. The embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0029] like Figure 1-5 As shown, the present invention includes: an oil pump, a pressurized air source 12, a tee 13 and a mold unit;

[0030] The horizontal end of the tee 13 receives the lubricating medium from the oil pump;

[0031] The vertical top end of the tee 13 is provided with an inlet of the mold unit;

[0032] A pressurized air source 12 is provided at the vertical bottom end of the tee 13 and is arranged directly opposite to the feed inlet;

[0033] The mold unit includes a fixed block 17, a die insert 15 and a slider 16. The die insert 15 is fixed by the fixed block 17. The die insert 15 is also provided with an air inlet 18 to enable the mixed lubricating medium to enter the die cavity. The die insert 15 is also provided with a slider 16. The slider 16 is also provided with an air groove 19. The gas passing through the pressurized air source 12 passes through the air groove 19 to reach the side wall of the die insert 15 and the surface of the sheet material.

[0034] During use, the lubricating medium is accurately delivered to the key component positions through the small flow rate and fine-tunable oil supply equipment combined with the pressurized air source and the sophisticated mold structure. The booster pump increases the pressure from 0.6Mpa to 1.2Mpa to raise a certain amount of lubricating medium to the mold end at high speed. After the action of high-pressure air pressure, part of the lubricating medium will become oil mist and be delivered to the key parts through the groove structure set on the hose and the slider.

[0035] In this embodiment, preferably, air grooves 19 are provided around the outer periphery and inner periphery of the slider 16 .

[0036] The above structure and the arrangement of multiple air grooves 19 enable the lubricating medium to be dispersed in multiple directions, thereby improving the lubrication effect.

[0037] In the present embodiment, the air inlet hole 18 is preferably arranged at the horizontal middle of the side of the die insert 15 .

[0038] With the above structure, the die insert 15 plays the role of punching the plate, and metal scraps are easily accumulated inside. After the structure is changed, an air inlet hole 18 is added on the side to facilitate the high-pressure gas mixed with the lubricating medium to enter the die cavity.

[0039] In this embodiment, preferably, the slider 16 is disposed in the die insert 15 for up and down reciprocating motion.

[0040] With the above structure, the slider 16 plays the role of ejecting the workpiece and reciprocates up and down in the concave mold cavity. After the structure is changed, an air groove 19 is added to the local key position of the slider 16 to facilitate the high-pressure gas mixed lubricating medium to be sprayed from the concave mold insert 15 to the surface of the plate. At the same time, the liquid lubricating medium can be evenly applied to the side wall of the concave mold insert 15 during the reciprocating motion of the slider.

[0041] In this embodiment, the oil pump preferably includes a housing 1, an oil supply piston 2, an end cover 3, a return spring 4, a tightening nut 5 and an adjustment handle 6;

[0042] The right side of the housing 1 is provided with an oil inlet 8 and an oil outlet 9 whose connecting lines intersect and are perpendicular to each other. The left side of the housing 1 is horizontally and coaxially installed with an end cover 3, a tightening nut 5 and an adjusting handle 6 in sequence. The side of the housing 1 located above the end cover 3 is penetrated by an air inlet and outlet 7.

[0043] An oil supply piston 2 is provided on the side of the shell 1 close to the end cover 3, and an air chamber 10 is formed between the shell 1, the end cover 3 and the oil supply piston 2. A return spring 4 is sleeved on the side of the oil supply piston 2 close to the oil outlet 9, and an oil chamber 11 is formed between the oil supply piston 2, the oil inlet 8 and the oil outlet 9.

[0044] With the above structure, the small flow oil pump is suitable for occasions in the stamping industry where a small amount of lubrication is required locally. The oil output of each pump ranges from 0 to 3ML. The oil pump can be installed separately according to the needs of different workstations, and the pump oil volume can be adjusted separately for each workstation.

[0045] In this embodiment, preferably, a one-way valve is installed on the oil inlet 8 and the oil outlet 9 respectively.

[0046] With the above structure, the oil inlet 8 and the oil outlet 9 are respectively installed with a one-way valve according to functional requirements.

[0047] In this embodiment, preferably, sealing rings are provided on the right and left sides of the oil supply piston 2 .

[0048] With the above structure, a sealing ring is arranged on the right side of the oil supply piston 2 for sealing the oil, and a sealing ring is arranged on the left side for sealing the gas.

[0049] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of this patent application, and are not intended to limit this patent application. Anyone familiar with the technology may modify or change the above embodiments without violating the spirit and scope of this patent application. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or changes made by those with ordinary knowledge in the relevant technical field without departing from the spirit and technical ideas disclosed in this patent application should still be covered by the claims of this patent application.
