[0029] The accompanying drawings are only used for illustrative description and cannot be understood as a limitation of the present application; the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "back", etc. indicate the orientation or position relationship based on the orientation or position relationship shown in the drawings, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element indicated must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation of the present application.
[0030] In addition, the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features defined with "first", "second", etc. can explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features.
[0031] The specific embodiments of the present application will be further described below in conjunction with the drawings and specific examples:
[0032] A mold for fixing the air bag frame mesh insert, from top to bottom, includes a movable mold plate, a first-time ejection plate, a second-time ejection plate and a bottom plate, the bottom plate is symmetrically provided with mold feet at the left and right ends, for supporting the movable mold plate and providing a ejection stroke space for the ejection of the molded product.
[0033] The mold structure further includes an inclined ejection structure, such asFigure 2 and 3 As shown, the inclined jack includes a first inclined jack, a second inclined jack, and a hydraulic cylinder inclined jack. The first inclined jack includes a first inclined jack block 101 and a first inclined jack rod 102. The first inclined jack rod 102 is set on the first ejection plate. The second inclined jack includes a second inclined jack block 201 and a second inclined jack rod 202. The second inclined jack rod 202 is set on the second ejection plate. The hydraulic cylinder inclined jack includes a third inclined jack block 301 and a hydraulic cylinder 302. The hydraulic cylinder 302 is fixed on the moving template, and the hydraulic cylinder telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the third inclined jack block 301.
[0034] The upper, left, and lower surfaces of the first inclined ejector block 101 are the product molding surfaces. A groove is provided on its upper surface, and the second inclined ejector block 201 is disposed within this groove. The second inclined ejector block 201 and the first inclined ejector block 101 together form the injection cavity for the side wall of the airbag frame of the injection-molded product. The third inclined ejector block 301 is located below the first inclined ejector block 101, and the lower surface of the first inclined ejector block 101 and the third inclined ejector block 301 together form the injection cavity for the side wall of the airbag frame of the injection-molded product. Before injection molding, the first inclined ejector block 101 is ejected, and the robotic arm places the mesh insert 4 on the three product molding surfaces of the first inclined ejector block 101, forming an n-shape. The second and third inclined ejector blocks 201 ensure that the mesh insert is fixed and stationary during the retraction of the first inclined ejector block 101 into the cavity, preventing any tilting.
[0035] The left end face of the second inclined ejector block is also the product forming surface. Since the slope of the left end forming surface of the first inclined ejector block 101 and the left end forming surface of the second inclined ejector block 201 are different, in this embodiment, the downslope angle of the first inclined ejector block 101 and the downslope angle of the second inclined ejector block 201 differs by two degrees. That is, the movement angle of the first inclined ejector block 101 and the second inclined ejector block 201 relative to the product 5 differs by two degrees. Therefore, when the first inclined ejector block 101 and the second inclined ejector block 201 exit the product 5, the distance between them becomes larger and larger.
[0036] A method for fixing an airbag frame mesh insert, using the aforementioned mold for fixing an airbag frame mesh insert, includes the following steps:
[0037] S1. Before mold closing, such as Figure 4 As shown, the first ejector plate and the second ejector plate, through the first inclined ejector rod 102 and the second inclined ejector rod 202, push the first inclined ejector block 101 and the second inclined ejector block 201 upwards a certain distance, after which the first ejector plate stops moving, and the second ejector plate, through the second inclined ejector rod 202, continues to push the second inclined ejector block 201 upwards a certain distance before stopping, as... Figure 5 As shown;
[0038] S2. The robotic arm places the pre-formed mesh insert 4 onto the product forming surface of the first inclined top block 101;
[0039] S3, the second ejection plate drives the second inclined top block 201 back through the second inclined top rod 202, and the first inclined top block 101 is fixed on the upper end of the mesh insert 4, and the oil cylinder 302 drives the third inclined top block 301 to be ejected, and the first inclined top block 101 is fixed on the lower end of the mesh insert 4, as shown in Figure 6 ;
[0040] S4, the first inclined top block 101, the second inclined top block 201 and the third inclined top block 301 are retracted into the mold core through the first ejection plate, the second ejection plate and the oil cylinder 302, and the mold is closed and injection molded, and after the injection molding is completed, it is cooled, as shown in Figure 7 ;
[0041] S5, after cooling, the third inclined top block 301 does not move, the first ejection plate and the second ejection plate drive the first inclined top block 101 and the second inclined top block 201 to be ejected upward through the first inclined top rod 102 and the second inclined top rod 202, so that the first inclined top block 101 and the second inclined top block 201 exit the molded product, and the manipulator takes away the molded product 5, as shown in Figure 8 ;
[0042] S6, the second ejection plate continues to drive the second inclined top block 201 upward through the second inclined top rod 202, and the manipulator repositions the pre-formed mesh insert 4, and repeats steps S3, S4 and S5.
[0043] In the description of the present application, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal" and the like indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the devices or elements referred to must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present application.
[0044] Of course, the above description is not a limitation of the present application, and the present application is not limited to the above examples, and changes, modifications, additions or substitutions made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the present application should also be within the scope of the present application.
