[0028] S1. Calculation, mold flow analysis is performed using injection molding simulation software, and the glue port deformation is determined, and then the ratio of a / A, the angle between the lower end of the first pre-folding forming part or the second pre-folding forming part and the horizontal plane, the extension length of the easy-folding forming part, and the length of the first die forming part and other parameters are determined.

[0035] 2. Since the injection slope is set to be first upwardly inclined and then downwardly inclined, the cross section of the top end of the injection slope is reduced, the flow rate of the material is accelerated under the condition of constant pressure, the material in the flow channel is quickly entered to avoid condensation at the injection slope position. The pre-folding position which needs to be avoided during the injection molding process is automatically generated due to the setting of the injection slope in the present application, thereby avoiding shrinkage or shrinkage during the injection molding process, and reducing the difficulty of in-mold separation.

[0036] 3. In order to facilitate the bending of the glue port mold frame, the length of the water channel of the traditional mold is usually extended to increase the length of the glue port mold frame and thus reduce its compression stiffness. The present application generates a pre-folding position by setting an injection slope, without the need to extend the water channel to reduce the compression stiffness of the glue port mold frame, greatly reducing the amount of material required for filling in the flow channel, reducing the total amount of material required for each injection molding, and greatly saving production costs.

[0054] An automatic die for cutting off a glue joint, comprising:

[0055] Die seat 1, the die seat 1 is provided with ejector plate, the upper side of ejector plate is provided with separable lower die plate 3 and upper die plate 4, the upper end of upper die plate 4 is detachably provided with faceplate 2, lower die plate 3 and upper die plate 4 are mutually closed and tightly closed by closing device or mutually far away from each other by ejector pin of ejector plate, the inside of lower die plate 3 and upper die plate 4 is provided with separable front die core 5 and rear die core 6 from top to bottom, the cutter device 7 is slidably arranged in front die core 5 and rear die core 6 from top to bottom;

[0056] The cutter device 7 specifically includes a compression spring 71 fixedly arranged on the upper end surface of the lower die plate 3, the upper end of the compression spring 71 is fixedly provided with a cutter insert 72, the upper side of the cutter insert 72 is separately provided with a pressure cutter insert 73, the upper end of the pressure cutter insert 73 is fixedly provided with an insert pressure plate 74, the insert pressure plate 74 is fixedly arranged on the injection port 21 of the faceplate 2, the middle part of the insert pressure plate 74 is embedded with an injection hopper 22 for material injection into the mold, the upper end surface of the cutter insert 72 is provided with a first water gap 721, and the lower end surface of the pressure cutter insert 73 is provided with a second water gap 731;

[0057] The front die core 5 is provided with a feed flow channel 51 communicated with the injection hopper 22, the lower end surface of the front die core 5 is provided with a first feed slot 52 communicated with the feed flow channel 51, the front die core 5 is provided with a plurality of insert movable holes 54 for the pressure cutter insert 73 to penetrate, the lower end opening end of each insert movable hole 54 is respectively communicated with the feed flow channel 52, the lower end surface of the front die core 5 is provided with an upper forming groove 53 on the side away from the first feed slot 52, the upper die plate 4 and the faceplate 2 are provided with insert limiting holes 41 corresponding to the insert movable holes 54;

[0058] The upper end surface of the rear die core 6 is provided with a second feed slot 62 matched with the first feed slot 52, the second feed slot 62 is provided with an injection bevel 64 inclined upward first and then downward at a position corresponding to the insert movable hole 54, the end of the injection bevel 64 away from the second feed slot 62 is provided with a cutter movable hole 61 penetrating through the rear die core 6 for the cutter insert 72, the upper end surface of the rear die core 6 is provided with a lower forming groove 63 corresponding to the upper forming groove 53 on the side away from the cutter movable hole 61 of the second feed slot 62;

[0059] When the lower mold plate 3 and the upper mold plate 4 are tightly closed and the front mold core 5 and the rear mold core 6 are locked, the cutting knife insert 73 is pressed against the cutting knife insert 72, the first feeding groove 52, the second feeding groove 62, the first water gap groove 721, the injection slope 64 and the second water gap groove 731 are combined to form a water gap runner, and the upper forming groove 53 and the lower forming groove 63 are combined to form a product forming cavity.

[0060] When the lower mold plate 3 and the upper mold plate 4 are separated, the front mold core 5 and the rear mold core 6 are still locked, the cutting knife insert 73 is away from the cutting knife insert 72, the cutting knife insert 72 is lifted by the compression spring 71, and the rubber port mold frame 8 formed in the water gap runner is also lifted, the rubber port mold frame 8 forms a pre-folding position 81 at the position of the injection slope 64, and the rubber port mold frame 8 is folded upward along the pre-folding position 81 after being lifted by the cutting knife insert 72, and finally separated from the formed product.

[0061] As a further improvement, the first water gap groove 721 includes a semicircular arc groove-shaped first mold frame forming part 7211 which can communicate with the injection slope 64 when the front mold core 5 and the rear mold core 6 are locked, a 1 / 4 spherical groove-shaped first booster part 7212 is arranged on the side away from the injection slope 64 of the first mold frame forming part 7211, a gradually widening parting part 7213 is inclined upward on the side away from the injection slope 64 of the first booster part 7212, and a connecting part 7214 which communicates with the product forming cavity is formed through the side wall surface of the cutting knife insert 72 on the side away from the injection slope 64 of the parting part 7213.

[0062] The second water gap groove 731 includes a semicircular arc groove-shaped second mold frame forming part 7311 corresponding to the position of the injection slope 64 and the first mold frame forming part 7211, a 1 / 4 spherical groove-shaped second booster part 7312 is arranged on the side away from the first feeding groove 52 of the second mold frame forming part 7311, a sealing part 7313 is formed on the outer periphery of the second water gap groove 731 on the lower end surface of the cutting knife insert 73, the sealing part 7313 corresponds to the position where the first water gap groove 721 is not arranged on the upper end surface of the cutting knife insert 72 and the parting part 7213, and when the front mold core 5 and the rear mold core 6 are locked, the sealing part 7313 tightly fits the position where the first water gap groove 721 is not arranged on the upper end surface of the cutting knife insert 72.

[0063] The first booster 7212 and the second booster 7312 form a hemispherical pressurized flow channel area, which has the effect of changing the cross-sectional area of the flow channel and accelerating the material compared to the traditional columnar flow channel. The side of the traditional flow channel close to the product forming cavity is constricted to form a circular truncated cone shape. The connection strength between the curved surface of the molded product and the connecting piece 82 formed by the parting portion 7213 is higher than that of a flat surface. This can ensure that the glue port mold frame 8 will not separate from the connecting piece 82 first after being lifted by the cutter insert 72, but the connecting piece 82 will separate from the molded product first.

[0064] In addition, the parting portion 7213 is gradually widened, which allows the material entering the product forming cavity from the parting portion 7213 to diffuse outwardly, better filling the product forming cavity and reducing the occurrence of shrinkage and porosity. The inclined upward arrangement forms a sharp corner at the connection between the parting portion 7213 and the connecting portion 7214, which acts as a "blade" during the lifting process of the cutter insert 72, cutting off the formed connecting piece 82 after molding and reducing the residual glue port protrusion on the product surface.

[0065] As a further improvement, the front mold core 5 is detachably embedded in the lower end surface of the upper mold plate 4 through fasteners.

[0066] As a further improvement, the cutter insert 72 includes a rectangular columnar base body, a guide rib is protruded on the side surface close to the product forming cavity, a limiting block 722 is protruded on the lower end of the side surface away from the product forming cavity, the first mold frame forming portion 7211 is opened on the upper end surface of the base body, the first booster 7212 and the parting portion 7213 are opened on the upper end surface of the guide rib; a guide groove matching the guide rib is recessed on the side close to the product forming cavity in the cutter movable hole 61, and a limiting groove 611 capable of accommodating the limiting block 722 is recessed and opened upward on the side away from the product forming cavity at the lower end opening of the cutter movable hole 61. The limiting and guiding arrangement can prevent the cutter insert 72 from deflecting due to pressure during the injection molding process, causing molding defects, while ensuring that the cutter insert 72 is lifted vertically upward by the compression spring 71 during the later mold splitting process instead of being offset sideways, which can smoothly complete the cutting of the connecting piece 82 and realize in-mold parting.

[0067] Preferably, the groove depth of the limiting groove 611 is 2-5 mm longer than the height of the limiting block 722. The difference between the groove depth of the limiting groove 611 and the height of the limiting block 722 is the stroke amount of the cutter insert 72 after the mold is split. If the stroke is too short, the glue joint mold frame 8 will be lifted to a low height, and the connecting piece 82 cannot be separated from the molded product. If the stroke is too long, the connecting guide rod or other guide functional parts between the upper mold plate 4 and the lower mold plate 3 will also need to be increased, otherwise the cutter insert 72 will be damaged due to misalignment. At the same time, the guide rod between the upper mold plate 4 and the lower mold plate 3 will cause the corresponding structure of the mold to change, which will not have additional effects and will increase the amount of materials used, which is not beneficial to the original design direction. In addition, a longer mold split stroke will require a higher stroke amount for the mold split auxiliary equipment, which is not conducive to reducing production costs.

[0068] As a further improvement, the injection slope 64 includes a first pre-folding forming part 641 inclined upward and in communication with the second feeding groove 62, the upper end of the first pre-folding forming part 641 extends horizontally to form a flat easy folding forming part 642, and the end of the easy folding forming part 642 away from the first pre-folding forming part 641 is inclined downward to form a second pre-folding forming part 643 symmetrical to the first pre-folding forming part 641. If the lower ends of the first pre-folding forming part 641 and the second pre-folding forming part 643 are inclined towards each other, the glue joint mold frame 8 will be clamped on the injection slope 64, making it difficult to lift the glue joint mold frame 8 with the cutter insert 72, and ultimately unable to achieve in-mold parting. If the first pre-folding forming part 641 and the second pre-folding forming part 643 are vertical surfaces, compared to the upper ends of the two inclined towards each other, the pre-folding position 81 of the molded glue joint mold frame 8 will be more difficult to bend upwards when subjected to the upward lifting force of the cutter insert 72 due to internal material stress, thus requiring an increase in the elastic coefficient of the compression spring 71. In addition, shrinkage and shrinkage will occur at the position of the injection slope 64 during molding, and the pre-folding position 81 will break during lifting rather than the connecting piece 82, ultimately resulting in the need for secondary processing to complete in-mold parting.

[0069] Among them, the horizontal extension of the easy folding forming part 642 can make the included angle between the groove wall and the groove bottom in the pre-folding position 81 formed after molding be obtuse, and the tensile capacity of the glue joint mold frame 8 at this point is further reduced.

[0070] Preferably, the angle between the lower end of the first pre-folding forming part 641 or the second pre-folding forming part 643 and the horizontal plane is 30-60°. If the angle is too large, as described above, the pre-folding position 81 of the formed die holder 8 is more difficult to bend upward when subjected to the upward lifting force of the cutter insert 72 due to the internal stress of the material, and thus the spring constant of the compression spring 71 needs to be increased. In addition, a too large angle will reduce the guiding ability of the material during injection molding, and material accumulation will easily occur at the injection groove 64. If the angle is too small, the length of the injection groove 64 will be reduced under the condition of constant a / A, which will result in the need to extend the water flow channel or reduce the size of the cutter insert 72. Extending the water flow channel will increase the amount of material needed for injection molding and the injection molding time, which is not conducive to reducing production costs. Preferably, the angle between the lower end of the first pre-folding forming part 641 or the second pre-folding forming part 643 and the horizontal plane is 45°.

[0071] In another embodiment, the injection groove 64 includes a first pre-folding forming part 641 inclined upward and communicating with the second feeding groove 62, and the upper end of the first pre-folding forming part 641 is inclined downward to form a second pre-folding forming part 643 symmetrical to the first pre-folding forming part 641. The angle between the lower end of the first pre-folding forming part 641 or the second pre-folding forming part 643 and the horizontal plane is 20-45°. In this embodiment, the pre-folding position 81 is formed as a sharp wedge-shaped notch, and the larger the angle between the lower end of the first pre-folding forming part 641 or the second pre-folding forming part 643 and the horizontal plane, the smaller the angle of the wedge. During the lifting of the cutter insert 72, the die holder 8 is more likely to break at the pre-folding position 81 rather than bend with the cutter insert 72, which will result in the product surface being left with a protruding die. If the angle of the wedge is too large, the water flow channel needs to be extended or the size of the cutter insert 72 needs to be reduced, which will result in an increase in the amount of material needed and the injection molding time, which is not conducive to reducing production costs.

[0072] The cross-sectional area of the flow channel formed by the first mold frame forming part 7211 and the second mold frame forming part 7311 is A, and the cross-sectional area of the flow channel formed by the easy-to-fold forming part 642 and the second mold frame forming part 7311 is a, so a = 0.4-0.6A. If a / A is too small, the mold material at the pre-folding position 81 will be blocked, resulting in product forming defects. If a / A is too large, the strength at the pre-folding position 81 will be higher, making it difficult to be lifted and bent by the cutter insert 72. At the same time, through the mold flow analysis of the injection molding simulation software, with the gradual increase of a / A, under the condition of the same injection pressure, the injection time shows a trend of first greatly reducing, then slightly increasing, and then reducing. It is believed through analysis that when a / A is small, the material is hindered from entering the forming cavity. As a / A increases, the resistance is weakened, and at the same time, the inclined arrangement of the first pre-folding forming part 641 makes the material enter the forming cavity faster. When a / A continues to increase, the flow rate changes little due to the change of cross-sectional area, but the resistance formed by the injection bevel 64 will make the material flow back, thereby increasing the injection time. When a / A = 1, the injection time is the shortest, but there is no pre-folding position 81 at this time, which is contrary to the original design concept.

[0073] Preferably, a = 0.5A.

[0074] Preferably, the extension length of the easy-to-fold forming part 642 is 1.5-3mm.
