Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of mold processing technology, and in particular to a processing system. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of the manufacturing industry, the requirements for product component assembly are becoming increasingly stringent. In mold processing, such as hot pressing molds, injection molds, and paper-plastic molds, various products require individually matched molds based on their different shapes and structures. Due to the different cavity structures of different molds, most mold bases are also individually adjusted and processed for each mold. This is especially true for molds that require stretching and covering flexible, extensible, and expandable materials, which also need to be adapted to the moving parts in the mold core. This results in higher overall costs, and the entire mold needs to be disassembled when changing processed products, which is time-consuming and affects production schedules. At the same time, in the hot pressing process, the mold core and other components need to be heated first, resulting in a longer processing time and preventing rapid processing.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0056] Meanwhile, the meaning of "and / or" or "and / or" appearing throughout the text is that it includes three options. Taking "A and / or B" as an example, it includes option A, option B, or an option that satisfies both A and B.

[0057] Furthermore, in this invention, descriptions involving "first," "second," etc., are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. Additionally, the technical solutions of the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but only on the basis of being achievable by those skilled in the art. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or impossible to implement, such a combination of technical solutions should be considered non-existent and not within the scope of protection claimed by this invention.

[0058] With the development of the manufacturing industry, the requirements for product component assembly are becoming increasingly stringent. In mold processing such as hot press molds, injection molds, and paper-plastic molds, various products require individual mold matching based on their different shapes and structures. Due to the different cavity structures of different molds, most mold bases are also individually adjusted and processed for each mold, resulting in higher overall costs. Furthermore, when changing processed products, the entire mold needs to be disassembled, which is time-consuming and affects production progress.

[0059] Especially for processing molds that require stretching and bonding of flexible, stretchable materials, the moving parts in the mold core also need to be adapted, resulting in higher overall costs. Furthermore, changing processed products requires complete disassembly, which is time-consuming and impacts production schedules. Taking a mold structure that stretches and bonds flexible, stretchable materials via hot pressing as an example, because the entire processing requires stretching the flexible material to achieve uniform color in the finished parts, the mold core's structural design typically includes sliding blocks for direct contact with the fabric. The mold frame needs to be adapted to these sliding blocks, requiring high precision fitting. Once assembled, it forms a tightly fitted unit that is usually not disassembled. Simultaneously, during the hot pressing process, the mold core and other components need to be heated first, leading to longer processing times and preventing rapid processing.

[0060] Based on the above concepts and problems, this invention proposes a processing system 100. It is understood that this processing system 100 can perform hot pressing processing on the workpiece 5. The workpiece 5 can be a product such as a mobile phone case, and is not limited thereto.

[0061] Please refer to the reference. Figures 1 to 6 As shown, in this embodiment of the invention, the processing system 100 includes a pressurizing device 1, a preheating device 2, and a mold core 3. The pressurizing device 1 includes a base 11 and a universal mold frame 12 disposed on the base 11. The universal mold frame 12 is provided with a pressurizing space 121, which is used to pressurize the workpiece 5 to be processed. The preheating device 2 is disposed adjacent to the pressurizing device 1 and is provided with a preheating groove 2221. The mold core 3 is detachably installed in the pressurizing space 121 or the preheating groove 2221. The processing system 100 has a preheating state and a processing state. In the preheating state, the mold core 3 is located in the preheating groove 2221 so that the preheating device 2 preheats the mold core 3. In the processing state, the mold core 3 is located in the pressurizing space 121 and is used to pressurize the workpiece 5 to be processed in the pressurizing space 121.

[0062] In this embodiment, the processing system 100 can be a processing production line or a processing production system. To facilitate the overall control of the processing system 100, the processing system 100 also includes a control system, control module, or control circuit, such as a control display device, etc. The control system, control module, or control circuit is electrically connected to components such as the pressurizing equipment 1 and the preheating device 2, thereby using the control system to control the operation of the pressurizing equipment 1, the preheating device 2, etc.

[0063] Understandably, the pressurizing device 1 and the preheating device 2 of the processing system 100 are also integrated on the same production line or machine. Of course, the pressurizing device 1 and the preheating device 2 can also be set as separate structures or components, which can facilitate processing and production, and can also be assembled according to different usage environments. No limitation is made here.

[0064] In this embodiment, by separating the mold core 3 from the pressurizing device 1, the mold core 3 is made into a single component, which makes it convenient to set different mold cores 3 according to different workpieces 5. In this way, different mold cores 3 can be replaced for different workpieces 5 corresponding to the pressurizing device 1, without the need to set up the pressurizing device 1 separately, which effectively saves costs.

[0065] Understandably, the base 11 of the pressurizing device 1 is used to install, fix, and support components such as the universal mold frame 12 and the mold core 3; that is, the base 11 provides an installation foundation for components such as the universal mold frame 12 and the mold core 3. In this embodiment, the base 11 can be a support platform, machine base, mounting platform, mounting shell, or box, etc., and is not limited thereto.

[0066] In this embodiment, the universal mold frame 12 of the pressurizing device 1 can easily assemble the mold core 3 and can also cooperate with the mold core 3 to perform hot pressing processing on the workpiece 5. It can be understood that the universal mold frame 12 is provided with a pressurizing space 121, which is used for pressurizing the workpiece 5.

[0067] To facilitate faster hot pressing by saving heating or preheating time, the pressurizing equipment 1 is equipped with a preheating device 2 in this embodiment. The preheating device 2 has a preheating groove 2221. This groove provides space for the mold core 3 and preheats it. During hot pressing, the preheated mold core 3 can be directly assembled from the preheating groove 2221 onto the universal mold frame 12, effectively shortening the hot pressing time and improving processing efficiency. Optionally, the preheating device 2 can be a heating furnace, a heating plate, or other structure providing heating and insulation functions; no limitation is made here.

[0068] The processing system 100 of the present invention separates the mold core 3 from the pressurizing device 1, allowing the mold core 3 to be set up independently. A universal mold frame 12 is set on the base 11 of the pressurizing device 1, so that the mold core 3 can be detachably installed in the pressurizing space 121 of the universal mold frame 12. This facilitates the pressurizing processing of the workpiece 5 to be processed in the pressurizing space 121 by the mold core 3, and at the same time realizes the rapid assembly and disassembly of mold cores 3 of different specifications. That is, in the processing of the same type of product, the universal mold frame 12 can remain stable after being installed on the corresponding base 11. Only the mold core 3 needs to be replaced when changing to different specifications of products. It has good versatility, faster assembly and disassembly speed, saves time, and helps to speed up the production cycle. Furthermore, by setting up a preheating device 2, the preheating device 2 can... The preheating device 2 is located adjacent to the pressurizing device 1 and has a preheating tank 2221. This allows the processing system 100 to have both a preheating state and a processing state. In the preheating state, the processing system 100 can detachably install the mold core 3 in the preheating tank 2221, so that the preheating device 2 can be used to heat or preheat and keep the mold core 3 warm. This allows the mold core 3 to be replaced at any time when the pressurizing device 1 is performing pressurizing processing, effectively saving the step of heating the mold core 3 before pressurizing processing. In the processing state, the processing system 100 can detachably install the mold core 3 in the pressurizing space 121 of the universal mold frame 12, so as to pressurize the workpiece 5 to be processed in the pressurizing space 121, thereby improving processing efficiency and processing consistency.

[0069] In one embodiment, the preheating device 2 includes a base 21 and a heating structure 22. The base 21 is arranged adjacent to the pressurizing device 1. The heating structure 22 includes a mounting shell 221, a heating component, and a heat insulation seat 222. The mounting shell 221 is disposed on the base 21 and has a mounting cavity and an opening communicating with the mounting cavity. The heating component is disposed in the mounting cavity. The heat insulation seat 222 is disposed at the opening and abuts against the heating component. The side of the heat insulation seat 222 facing away from the heating component has a preheating groove 2221.

[0070] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the base 21 of the preheating device 2 provides an installation foundation for the heating structure 22. It is understood that the base 21 can be directly mounted on the base 11 of the pressurizing device 1; of course, the base 21 can also be separately mounted from the base 11 of the pressurizing device 1, which is not limited here. Optionally, the preheating device 2 is arranged adjacent to the pressurizing device 1.

[0071] Understandably, the base 21 can be a mounting plate, mounting seat, mounting platform, mounting bracket, or mounting plane, etc., and is not limited here. By setting the heating structure 22 as a mounting shell 221, heating components, and insulation seat 222, the mounting shell 221 provides installation space for components such as the heating components and insulation seat 222. Optionally, the mounting shell 221 is a cylindrical structure with one or both ends open. The heating components can be selected as heating plates, heating wires, heating discs, heating sheets, heating rods, or thermocouples, etc. By placing the insulation seat 222 at the opening, the insulation seat 222 can both seal the opening and provide space for the mold core 3.

[0072] In this embodiment, the heat-insulating base 222 is fitted to the heating component, and a preheating groove 2221 is provided on the side of the heat-insulating base 222 facing away from the heating component. This allows for the preheating groove 2221 to position the mold core 3, the heating component to provide heat to the mold core 3 through the heat-insulating base 222, and the heat-insulating base 222 to provide heat preservation for the mold core 3. Optionally, the heat-insulating base 222 may be provided with a heat-insulating structure or a heat-insulating layer.

[0073] To facilitate the placement and removal of the mold core 3, in one embodiment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the heat insulation base 222 is located inside the mounting cavity and surrounds the mounting shell 221 to form a communicating preheating groove 2221, which is provided with a clearance groove 2222. Optionally, the clearance groove 2222 is arranged around the preheating groove 2221. Of course, in other embodiments, the clearance groove 2222 can also be formed by directly recessing the heat insulation base 222, which is not limited here.

[0074] To further limit and position the mold core 3, such as Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the heat preservation base 222 is also provided with a positioning platform 2223 adjacent to the preheating tank 2221. In the preheating state, the positioning platform 2223 abuts against and limits the outer wall of the mold core 3. Optionally, the positioning platform 2223 is located at the opening of the preheating tank 2221. Of course, in other embodiments, the positioning platform 2223 may also be partially located within the preheating tank 2221, which is not limited here.

[0075] In this embodiment, the positioning platform 2223 includes two platforms, which are arranged opposite each other and located on opposite sides of the preheating tank 2221. It can be understood that the two positioning platforms 2223 are respectively located in the clearance groove 2222, so that the clearance groove 2222 is two oppositely arranged groove structures, which is not limited here.

[0076] In one embodiment, the preheating device 2 further includes a locking member 2224, which is disposed in the preheating groove 2221. The outer wall of the mold core 3 is provided with a snap-fit ​​member 31. In the preheating state, the mold core 3 is located in the preheating groove 2221 so that the locking member 2224 and the snap-fit ​​member 31 can be detachably engaged.

[0077] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, by providing a locking element 2224 on the insulation base 222 of the preheating device 2 and a snap-fit ​​element 31 on the mold core 3, the mold core 3 can be detachably installed in the preheating tank 2221 through the cooperation of the locking element 2224 and the snap-fit ​​element 31. It is understood that the locking element 2224 and the snap-fit ​​element 31 can be a snap-fit ​​connection structure, a plug-in fit structure, a screw connection structure, or a pin connection structure, etc., and are not limited here.

[0078] Optionally, the locking member 2224 is disposed on the side wall of the preheating groove 2221. To facilitate the placement of the mold core 3 into the preheating groove 2221, the locking member 2224 is provided with a guide slope. In this embodiment, the locking member 2224 has a locking ball on the side facing the center of the preheating groove 2221, and the locking part 32 is a locking groove. In the preheating state, the mold core 3 enters the preheating groove 2221 along the guide slope, and the locking ball rolls along the outer wall of the mold core 3 and locks into the locking groove.

[0079] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the heating structure 22 includes multiple heating structures 22, which are spaced apart on the base 21. It can be understood that this arrangement allows for the simultaneous heating or preheating of multiple mold cores 3 of the same or different specifications using the preheating device 2, so that the pressurizing equipment 1 can be replaced at any time according to processing needs, which is not limited here.

[0080] In this embodiment, the number of heating structures 22 can be set according to actual processing and production needs. Of course, the number of heating structures 22 can also be set according to the number of universal mold frames 12 on the pressurizing equipment 1, and is not limited here.

[0081] In one embodiment, the universal mold frame 12 includes a lower mold frame 122 and an upper mold frame 123. The lower mold frame 122 is disposed on the base 11 and has a placement platform 1221 for placing a flow tooling 6 containing the workpiece 5 to be processed. The upper mold frame 123 is movably disposed on the base 11 and is disposed opposite to the lower mold frame 122 to form a pressurizing space 121. The side of the upper mold frame 123 facing the lower mold frame 122 has a mounting groove 1232. In the processing state, the mold core 3 is detachably installed in the mounting groove 1232. The upper mold frame 123 drives the mold core 3 to move closer to or away from the lower mold frame 122 so that the mold core 3 can pressurize the workpiece 5 to be processed.

[0082] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the upper mold frame 123 of the general mold frame 12 is movable relative to the lower mold frame 122. The lower mold frame 122 is provided with a placement platform 1221, which is used to place the workpiece 5 to be processed. It is understood that in order to facilitate the positioning, picking, or conveying of the workpiece 5, the workpiece 5 is usually placed or positioned on the flow tooling 6.

[0083] It should be noted that the workpiece 5 to be processed can be a mobile phone case. The pressurizing device 1 assembles the mold core 3 through the upper mold frame 123 of the universal mold frame 12. By controlling the upper mold frame 123 to press down or the lower mold frame 122 to lift up, the mold core 3 and the product can be made into contact, that is, the mold closing and cooperation can be achieved. In this embodiment, the upper mold frame 123 is driven to press down by a servo motor or other drive mechanism to cooperate with the fixed lower mold frame 122 to achieve mold closing processing.

[0084] The following example illustrates the effect of applying flexible fabric to a curved mobile phone case using a hot-pressing mold. The curved mobile phone case and the fabric are placed together to form an assembly, which is fixed on a flow tooling 6 and secured by positioning and engaging with the lower mold frame 122. In this embodiment, the upper mold frame 123 has a mounting groove 1232 on the side facing the lower mold frame 122, and the mold core 3 is detachably installed in the mounting groove 1232.

[0085] In one embodiment, such as Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the upper mold frame 123 also includes a locking structure, which includes a locking part 1238 and a snap-fit ​​part 32. One of the locking part 1238 and the snap-fit ​​part 32 is located in the mounting groove 1232, and the other is located in the mold core 3. In the processing state, the mold core 3 is located in the mounting groove 1232, and the locking part 1238 and the snap-fit ​​part 32 are detachably engaged.

[0086] Understandably, the locking part 1238 and the snap-fit ​​part 32 engage to enable quick assembly and disassembly of mold cores 3 of different specifications. In the processing of products of the same type, the universal mold frame 12 can remain stable after being installed on the corresponding base 11. Only the mold core 3 needs to be replaced when changing to products of different specifications. It can then be used to process product parts with the corresponding matching flow tooling 6 located on the lower mold frame 122. It has good versatility, faster assembly and disassembly speed, saves time, and helps to speed up the production cycle. At the same time, for some working conditions that require temperature processing, the universality of the mold frame also helps to maintain the stability of the processing temperature.

[0087] In one embodiment, the upper mold frame 123 includes a mounting plate 1231 and a drive structure. The mounting plate 1231 is movably disposed on the base 11 and is disposed opposite to the lower mold frame 122 to form a pressurization space 121. The side of the mounting plate 1231 facing the lower mold frame 122 is provided with a mounting groove 1232. The drive structure includes a drive assembly and a plurality of connectors 1237. The plurality of connectors 1237 are movably disposed in the mounting groove 1232 and are spaced apart along the periphery of the mounting groove 1232. The drive assembly is disposed on the mounting plate 1231 and is connected to the plurality of connectors 1237. In the processing state, the mold core 3 is located in the mounting groove 1232 and is connected to the plurality of connectors 1237.

[0088] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the mounting plate 1231 of the upper mold frame 123 is provided with a mounting groove 1232, and a locking part 1238 is provided in the mounting groove 1232 of the mounting plate 1231. The mold core 3 is provided with a snap-fit ​​part 32. It can be understood that the snap-fit ​​part 32 and the snap-fit ​​part 31 of the mold core 3 can be the same structure or different structures. For example, when the snap-fit ​​part 32 and the snap-fit ​​part 31 are the same, the locking part 1238 is the same as the locking member 2224; of course, when the snap-fit ​​part 32 and the snap-fit ​​part 31 are different, the locking part 1238 and the locking member 2224 are different, which is not limited here.

[0089] Understandably, by setting a driving structure on the mounting plate 1231 of the lower mold frame 122, multiple connecting parts 1237 of the driving structure are located on the lower end face of the mounting plate 1231 and are distributed circumferentially along the mounting plate 1231. The multiple connecting parts 1237 slide in directions that are closer to or further away from each other to connect with multiple sliders 34 of the mold core 3. The driving assembly is located on the upper mold frame 123 to drive the multiple connecting parts 1237 to move. The multiple connecting parts 1237 use the mounting plate 1231 as the mounting base and can slide together. After the mold core 3 is assembled, they can connect with each slider 34, so that when driven by the driving assembly, they can drive the sliders 34 to slide in their corresponding sliding directions, thereby realizing the function of expanding the flexible material.

[0090] It should be noted that the multiple connectors 1237 can be driven individually or simultaneously, considering that the sliding directions of the multiple connectors 1237 are not the same. Optionally, the driving of the corresponding obliquely moving connector 1237 can be separated from the driving of the corresponding forward moving connector 1237, thereby avoiding interference when the multiple connectors 1237 expand outward or retract inward at the same time. The aforementioned forward movement refers to the horizontal or vertical direction. For example, in the production process, the connectors 1237 at the four corner positions drive the four sliders 34 of the mold core 3 to move obliquely upward toward the center of the mold frame 123. Then, the four forward-position connectors 1237 drive the remaining four sliders 34 of the mold core 3 to move upward toward the center of the mold frame 123, so that the sliders 34 of the mold core 3 retract inward to avoid contact with the flexible material. After contact with the flexible material, the four forward-position connectors 1237 first drive the four sliders 34 of the mold core 3 to expand outward, and then the four corner connectors 1237 drive the remaining four sliders 34 of the mold core 3 to expand outward, thereby realizing the extension of the flexible material.

[0091] In one embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, each connector 1237 includes a body, a first connecting part, and a second connecting part. The body is movably disposed in the mounting groove 1232 and connected to the drive assembly. The first connecting part and the second connecting part are spaced apart on the side of the body facing away from the bottom wall of the mounting groove 1232 to form a limiting groove. The mold core 3 is provided with a clearance hole 35 corresponding to each first connecting part. In the processing state, the mold core 3 is located in the mounting groove 1232, and each first connecting part passes through the clearance hole 35 so that part of the mold core 3 is limited to the limiting groove.

[0092] In this embodiment, the specific shape of the connector 1237 is not limited; it can be a columnar structure directly inserted into the slider 34 of the mold core 3. This is for your understanding. Please refer to... Figure 6 The mold core 3 is provided with a clearance hole 35 for each connector 1237. The body of the connector 1237 is movably mounted to the lower end face of the mounting plate 1231. The first connecting part is provided on the body and extends in the vertical direction. The first connecting part is used to pass through the corresponding clearance hole 35 to contact the corresponding slider 34 of the mold core 3. The second connecting part is provided on the body and spaced apart from the first connecting part. The second connecting part is used to contact the side of the corresponding slider 34 facing away from the first connecting part.

[0093] Understandably, the first connecting part, the second connecting part, and the body of the connector 1237 cooperate to form a limiting groove, the mold core 3 is located in the mounting groove 1232, and each first connecting part passes through the clearance hole 35 so that the slider 34 of the mold core 3 is limited to the limiting groove.

[0094] It should be noted that, in this structure, the structure of the slider 34 itself is not adjusted. Only the clearance hole 35 is provided on the mold core 3 for the insertion and movement of the first connecting part. The second connecting part is always outside the mold core 3. The cross-section of the connecting part 1237 is similar to a U-shaped structure. During the assembly of the mold core 3 from bottom to top, the first connecting part naturally extends into the clearance hole 35. At this time, the first connecting part can be in clearance fit or contact fit with the slider 34. During the outward pulling action, the first connecting part contacts the side of the slider 34 facing the center of the upper mold frame 123, thereby driving it to slide. At this time, the second connecting part can have a certain gap with the slider 34. During the inward retraction action, the connecting part 1237 moves in the opposite direction. At this time, the second connecting part contacts the exposed side of the slider 34, thereby pushing it to retract. At this time, the first connecting part can also be in clearance fit with the slider 34, thereby controlling the movement of the slider 34 in two directions.

[0095] Understandably, since the inward shrinkage process of the slider 34 of the mold core 3 does not involve molding processing, its inward shrinkage stroke is relatively wide, while the outward expansion process of the slider 34 is an extension process of flexible material, which requires higher precision in the outward expansion stroke.

[0096] In this embodiment, the driving structure also includes multiple limiting blocks corresponding to multiple connectors 1237. Each limiting block is detachably installed on the lower end face of the mounting plate 1231 and is used to abut against the side of the slider 34 facing away from the center of the mold frame 123 during the movement of each slider 34. The limiting block acts as a hard limit and abuts against the slider 34, restricting its outward pull. It can be understood that when the mold core 3 itself is provided with a limiting structure for the outward expansion of the slider 34, the limiting block can be removed and not used. Of course, if the limiting stroke of the limiting block is greater than the limiting stroke set by the mold core 3 itself, it will not affect the displacement of the slider 34, and it can also be left unremoved.

[0097] To facilitate the sliding of the connector 1237 within the mounting groove 1232 and to provide sliding and guiding space for the connector 1237, in one embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, the bottom wall of the mounting groove 1232 is provided with a sliding groove 1233 corresponding to each connector 1237, and the connector 1237 is slidably disposed in the sliding groove 1233.

[0098] In one embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, the drive assembly includes multiple drive cylinders 1236, which are spaced apart on the mounting plate 1231. The output end of each drive cylinder 1236 is connected to a connector 1237.

[0099] In this embodiment, the seats of multiple drive cylinders 1236 are all connected to the upper mold frame 123, and the cylinder rods of the multiple drive cylinders 1236 are correspondingly connected to multiple connectors 1237. Each connector 1237 is driven by the multiple drive cylinders 1236. It should be understood that some drive cylinders 1236 can be made to work synchronously through program control. In order to improve the driving cooperation effect and avoid cooperation wobbling, it is preferable to set the rod end of the drive cylinder 1236 and the connector 1237 to cooperate through a T-shaped rod.

[0100] In order to facilitate the hot pressing process of the pressurizing equipment 1 and to control and maintain the temperature of the mold core 3, in one embodiment, the upper mold frame 123 further includes a heating element, which is disposed on the mounting plate 1231 and is used to heat the mold core 3 in the mounting groove 1232.

[0101] In this embodiment, the upper mold frame 123 also includes a floating plate and a heat insulation plate assembly. The floating plate can deflect laterally and longitudinally. The heat insulation plate assembly is located at the lower end of the floating plate, and the mounting plate 1231 is located at the lower end of the heat insulation plate assembly. A heating element is provided on the mounting plate 1231. This allows the floating plate to have a certain degree of flexibility after installation, enabling in-plane deflection and ensuring mold closing accuracy. It is understood that the floating deflection effect is achieved by adding multiple ordinary screws and equal-height sleeves. The vertical floating gap is set to 0.2mm; the circumferential floating gap is set to 1.0mm. The structure is simple and saves space. By limiting the size of the floating gap, the degree of floating is controlled, achieving accurate positioning. The heat insulation plate assembly provides insulation, reducing heat loss.

[0102] In this embodiment, multiple drive cylinders 1236 are locked to the peripheral edge of the floating plate by brackets, with the heat insulation plate assembly corresponding to the central position. It should be understood that the present invention does not limit the specific number of heat insulation plates in the heat insulation plate assembly. In this embodiment, three heat insulation plates are stacked. In other embodiments, more or fewer heat insulation plates can be used by adjusting the thickness.

[0103] In one embodiment, the pressurizing device 1 further includes a pressurizing drive 13 disposed on the base 11, the output end of the pressurizing drive 13 being connected to the upper mold frame 123; wherein, the pressurizing drive 13 drives the upper mold frame 123 to move the mold core 3 closer to or away from the lower mold frame 122.

[0104] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, by providing a pressure driving component 13, the pressure driving component 13 provides driving force to the upper mold base 123 of the universal mold base 12, so as to facilitate the upper mold base 123 to drive the mold core 3 closer to or away from the lower mold base 122, thereby realizing mold closing processing. It is understood that the pressure driving component 13 can be selected as a drive cylinder, electric cylinder, or other structure that can provide driving force, and is not limited here.

[0105] To ensure accurate mold closing between the upper mold base 123 and the mold core 3 and the lower mold base 122, in one embodiment, such as... Figures 1 to 4 As shown, one of the lower mold frame 122 and the upper mold frame 123 is provided with a first guide rod 1222, and the other is provided with a first guide hole 1234. The first guide rod 1222 slides through the first guide hole 1234.

[0106] In this embodiment, the lower mold frame 122 is provided with a plurality of first guide rods 1222, which surround the placement platform 1221. The mounting plate 1231 of the upper mold frame 123 is provided with a plurality of first guide holes 1234, which surround the mounting groove 1232. Optionally, the number of first guide holes 1234 is the same as the number of first guide rods 1222, and the first guide holes 1234 correspond one-to-one with the first guide rods 1222. It is understood that, in order to further improve sliding guidance, the mounting plate 1231 is provided with a guide sleeve structure at the first guide hole 1234, which is not limited here.

[0107] To provide guidance for the movement of the upper mold frame 123 driven by the pressure drive 13, in one embodiment, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, one of the base 11 and the upper mold frame 123 is provided with a second guide rod 1235, and the other is provided with a second guide hole 1133. The second guide rod 1235 is slidably inserted into the second guide hole 1133.

[0108] In this embodiment, the mounting plate 1231 of the upper mold frame 123 is provided with a plurality of second guide rods 1235, and the bracket 113 of the base 11 is provided with a plurality of second guide holes 1133. Optionally, the number of second guide holes 1133 is the same as the number of second guide rods 1235, and the second guide holes 1133 and second guide rods 1235 are provided in a one-to-one correspondence. It is understood that, in order to further improve sliding guidance, the bracket 113 of the base 11 is provided with a guide sleeve structure at the second guide holes 1133, which is not limited here.

[0109] It should be noted that the placement platform 1221 of the lower mold frame 122 is mainly used for the installation and positioning of the flow tooling 6. Proximity switches, positioning pins and threaded holes can be set on the lower mold frame 122 to facilitate the detection and positioning of the flow tooling 6.

[0110] In one embodiment, the mold core 3 includes a base plate 33 and a plurality of sliders 34, which are movably disposed on the base plate 33 and can move toward or away from the center of the base plate 33.

[0111] In this embodiment, as Figures 4 to 6As shown, multiple sliders 34 of the mold core 3 are disposed around the base plate 33. These sliders 34 can move towards or away from the center of the base plate 33. Understandably, the base plate 33 serves as a mounting base, providing support. During actual processing, the sliders 34 can move away from each other to stretch the flexible material, allowing it to conform to the inner wall of the phone case. The sliders 34 can also move away from each other to avoid obstructing the product during mold closing and to separate from the flexible material during mold opening for demolding. For example, [the following text is incomplete and requires further context]. Figure 6 In this embodiment, eight sliders 34 are provided on the mold core 3, which correspond to the four corners and four straight edges of the phone case respectively. The sliders 34 corresponding to the straight edges slide horizontally or vertically, and the sliders 34 corresponding to the corners slide diagonally.

[0112] In one embodiment, the slider 34 has a groove on the side facing away from the center of the base plate 33; the mold core 3 also includes a plurality of springs and a plurality of pressure blocks, the plurality of springs being disposed in the plurality of grooves; the plurality of pressure blocks are fixed to the side surface of the base plate 33 and correspond to the plurality of sliders 34, the plurality of pressure blocks being used to abut against the plurality of springs.

[0113] Understandably, in its natural state, due to the setting of the pressure block, the slider 34 can always maintain a relatively stable position, that is, in a naturally retracted state. This setting is beneficial for ensuring that the initial states of mold cores 3 of different specifications are similar during quick-release fitting, all being in the retracted state, which facilitates the installation and adaptation of the connector 1237. It should be understood that the clearance formed by the slider 34 initially should ensure that the first connecting part can pass through. In the actual production process, the slider 34 is driven to move, causing the spring to be compressed, which can also provide a certain clamping force to the slider 34, which is conducive to the tight fit between the slider 34 and the first connecting part.

[0114] Considering the structural fit, the size of the pressure block may be made relatively small, and it is prone to loosening and deformation after long-term use. Therefore, it can also be used together with the limiting block, with the pressure block serving as an auxiliary component.

[0115] Furthermore, the mounting plate 1231 is provided with multiple guide grooves, and the upper ends of multiple connectors 1237 are slidably installed into the multiple guide grooves. Optionally, the guide grooves are dovetail grooves, which can prevent the hanging fit from falling off and provide better fit accuracy. It should be understood that each slider 34 is usually guided by a sliding groove structure on the base plate 33. Usually, when the sliding fit of the slider 34 is designed, there is a certain amount of wobble. Considering the machining error, different mold cores 3 will fall at different tolerance positions after machining, and the consistency cannot meet the accuracy. If the connector 1237 is designed based on the sliding positioning of the slider 34, it will cause a large burden on the mold core 3 and is prone to movement jamming. At the same time, when the consistency accuracy cannot be guaranteed, there is a large sliding guide deviation. Therefore, the present invention sets the connector 1237 with a separate sliding guide, so that it maintains the accuracy by its own sliding fit.

[0116] This invention does not limit the specific structure of the locking part 1238 and the snap-fit ​​part 32. In one embodiment, the locking structure includes a locking sleeve, a mounting cylinder, a plurality of first balls, and a pusher. The locking sleeve is located in the middle of the mounting groove 1232 of the upper mold frame 123. The inner wall surface of the locking sleeve forms an upwardly facing snap-fit ​​ring surface. One end of the mounting cylinder is used to fix to the middle of the upper end face of the mold core 3 and can be inserted into the locking sleeve. The inner wall surface of the mounting cylinder has a plurality of mounting holes communicating with the outside. The plurality of first balls are movably installed in the plurality of mounting holes and are at least partially located in the inner cavity of the mounting cylinder. The pusher is located in the inner cavity of the mounting cylinder and can move vertically. The end of the pusher can contact the portion of the plurality of first balls located in the inner cavity of the mounting cylinder to push the plurality of first balls partially protruding out of the plurality of mounting holes to abut against and fix them against the snap-fit ​​ring surface. The snap-fit ​​part 32 includes a mounting cylinder, a plurality of first balls, and a pusher, and the snap-fit ​​part includes a locking sleeve.

[0117] Understandably, the snap-fit ​​part 32 is provided on the mold core 3, and the locking part 1238 is provided on the upper mold frame 123. Since an upward snap-fit ​​ring surface is formed inside the locking sleeve, the inner diameter of the locking sleeve corresponding to the upper edge of the snap-fit ​​ring surface is naturally larger than the inner diameter of the locking sleeve corresponding to the lower edge of the snap-fit ​​ring surface. Initially, the multiple first balls are in a loose state. Since the balls are spherical, even if they protrude from the mounting holes in their natural state, they can naturally retract during assembly due to the pressure of the locking sleeve, without affecting the assembly. After the mold core 3 is installed in place, when the multiple first balls can correspond to the engaging ring surface, the pusher moves upward to push the multiple first balls to move away from each other, thereby abutting against the engaging ring surface and forming a circumferential engaging fit. Fixing the pusher in this state can lock the mold core 3 onto the upper mold frame 123. The circumferential arrangement of the multiple first balls can ensure good hanging force and will not cause the mold core 3 to be misaligned. When disassembling, it is only necessary to control the pusher to move downward, that is, quick disassembly can be completed by driving the pusher to move up and down. The operation is simple.

[0118] It should be understood that, since the first ball is spherical and moves within the mounting hole, a certain allowance is reserved at the side edge of the mounting hole during machining, so that although the mounting hole is through, it has an arc-shaped retaining edge, thereby preventing the ball from falling out of the mounting hole.

[0119] It should be understood that the locking sleeve can be fixed to the mold core 3 by bolt fastening. In other embodiments, locking can also be achieved by the cooperation of a cylindrical rod and a stepped groove, or by the cooperation of a T-slot and a T-hook; this invention will not describe these in detail.

[0120] This invention does not limit the specific structural form of the pusher. For example, it can be a rod-shaped structure with a spherical end or a rod-shaped structure with a circular mating surface at the end. In this embodiment, in order to facilitate the quick locking of the pusher, the lower end of the mold core 3 is provided with a through hole that connects to the inner cavity of the mounting cylinder. The inner cavity of the mounting cylinder has a first cavity section and a second cavity section with successively increasing diameters. The second cavity section is provided with the plurality of mounting holes. The first cavity section is connected to the through hole and its inner wall surface is provided with internal threads. The pusher includes a second ball and a bolt. The second ball is disposed in the second cavity section. The lower part of the second ball contacts the plurality of first balls. The bolt is used to extend from the through hole and be threaded to the first cavity section. The end of the bolt contacts the second ball so as to drive the second ball to push the plurality of first balls during rotation. The outer diameter of the second ball is adapted to the second cavity segment and can be confined in a fixed space by the step between the first ball and the first and second cavities. The outer diameter of the second ball is larger than that of the first ball. The operator can control the rotation of the bolt by inserting a screwdriver into the through hole. The rotation process drives and pushes the second ball. After the screwdriver is released, the bolt is naturally locked and limited. The operation is simple and facilitates quick driving and locking.

[0121] Preferably, the bolt is a headless bolt, thus accommodating smaller installation spaces. Considering assembly strength, steel balls are preferred.

[0122] In one embodiment, the base 11 includes a base 111, a rotating assembly 112, and a support 113. The base 111 has a rotating hole 1111. The rotating assembly 112 includes a rotating element 1121 and a rotating disk 1122. The rotating element 1121 is disposed on the base 111, and the rotating disk 1122 is disposed in the rotating hole 1111 and connected to the output end of the rotating element 1121. The support 113 includes a support column 1131 and a support plate 1132 connected to the support column 1131. One end of the support column 1131 away from the support plate 1132 is connected to the rotating disk 1122, so that the support plate 1132 and the rotating disk 1122 are spaced apart and opposite to each other, and cooperate to form an installation space 114. A universal mold frame 12 is disposed in the installation space 114. The rotating element 1121 drives the rotating disk 1122 to rotate in the rotating hole 1111, thereby driving the support 113 and the universal mold frame 12 to rotate.

[0123] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, by setting a rotating component 112 and a bracket 113 on the base 11, the base 111 provides an installation foundation for the rotating component 112 and the bracket 113, and facilitates the use of the rotating part 1121 of the rotating component 112 to drive the rotating disk 1122 to rotate in the rotating hole 1111, thereby driving the bracket 113 and the universal mold frame 12 to rotate, so that the universal mold frame 12 installed on the rotating disk 1122 and the bracket 113 can rotate synchronously. In this way, the pressurizing equipment 1 can be controlled to rotate according to different processing steps and control steps, so as to facilitate the placement of the workpiece 5 to be processed and the flow tooling 6 on the placement table 1221 of the pressurizing equipment 1, as well as the assembly of the mold core 3.

[0124] It is understood that the rotating component 1121 can be a rotary motor, a drive motor, or other structure capable of driving the rotating disk 1122 to rotate, and is not limited here. In this embodiment, the lower mold frame 122 is fixedly installed on the rotating disk 1122, and the upper mold frame 123 is provided with a second guide rod 1235. The support plate 1132 of the bracket 113 has a second guide hole 1133. Thus, the second guide rod 1235 slides through the second guide hole 1133, so that the upper mold frame 123 and the support plate 1132 of the bracket 113 are movably connected.

[0125] In this embodiment, the pressure driving member 13 is mounted on the support plate 1132 of the bracket 113. Optionally, the pressure driving member 13 is located on the side of the support plate 1132 facing away from the pressure space 121, and the drive shaft of the pressure driving member 13 passes through the support plate 1132, extends into the pressure space 121, and is connected to the upper mold frame 123. Thus, the pressure driving member 13 drives the upper mold frame 123 to move, and move closer to or away from the lower mold frame 122. It is understood that the lower mold frame 122 is provided with a first guide rod 1222, and the upper mold frame 123 is provided with a first guide hole 1234. The first guide rod 1222 slides through the first guide hole 1234, so that the upper mold frame 123 can move away from or closer to the lower mold frame 122 in a directional direction.

[0126] Understandably, the first guide rod 1222 and the second guide rod 1235 are spaced apart and arranged in parallel to ensure the directional movement of the upper mold frame 123. In this embodiment, the rotating disk 1122 is spaced apart from and opposite to the support plate 1132 via the support column 1131 to form the installation space 114.

[0127] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the pressurizing device 1 includes multiple universal mold frames 12, which are spaced apart and installed in the space 114. It can be understood that the multiple universal mold frames 12 are spaced apart along the circumference of the rotating disk 1122, so that the pressurizing device 1 can simultaneously pressurize the workpiece 5 through the multiple universal mold frames 12 to improve processing efficiency.

[0128] Understandably, the control system of the processing system 100 can control the rotating component 1121 of the pressurizing device 1 to drive the rotating disk 1122 to rotate, so that multiple universal mold frames 12 can correspond to different process positions, facilitating material loading or assembly of mold cores 3, etc., which is not limited here. The control system of the processing system 100 can also control the pressurizing drive component 13 to drive the upper mold frame 123 to move closer to or away from the lower mold frame 122, so as to realize mold closing processing production, which is not limited here.

[0129] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1 to 3 , Figure 5 As shown, the mold core 3 includes multiple cores. In the preheating state, at least one mold core 3 is located in the preheating tank 2221; in the processing state, at least one mold core 3 is located in the pressurization space 121. It is understood that the multiple mold cores 3 can be mold cores 3 of the same specification. Of course, the multiple mold cores 3 can also be mold cores 3 of different specifications, which is not limited here.

[0130] To facilitate the disassembly and replacement of the mold core 3, in one embodiment, the processing system 100 further includes a transfer module 7, which is arranged adjacent to the pressurizing device 1 and the preheating device 2. The transfer module 7 is used to transfer the mold core 3 to the pressurizing space 121 or the preheating tank 2221.

[0131] Understandably, this setup facilitates the transfer of the mold core 3 using the transfer module 7. The transfer module 7 can be a robotic arm, a moving module, or a drive module, etc. Optionally, the transfer module 7 can use any transfer structure from the prior art, and is not limited here.

[0132] In this embodiment, the transfer module 7 can transfer the mold core 3 from the placement position to the preheating tank 2221 of the preheating device 2; or, the transfer module 7 can transfer the mold core 3 from the preheating tank 2221 of the preheating device 2 to the pressurizing space 121 of the pressurizing device 1, that is, to be assembled on the mounting slot 1232 of the upper mold frame 123; or, the transfer module 7 can transfer the mold core 3 from the pressurizing space 121 of the pressurizing device 1 to the preheating tank 2221 of the preheating device 2, that is, to be disassembled from the mounting slot 1232 of the upper mold frame 123 and transferred to the preheating tank 2221; or, the transfer module 7 can transfer the mold core 3 from the pressurizing space 121 of the pressurizing device 1 to the placement position; or, the transfer module 7 can transfer the mold core 3 from the preheating tank 2221 of the preheating device 2 to the placement position, etc., without limitation.

[0133] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, the processing system 100 also includes a conveying module 4, which is arranged adjacent to the pressurizing device 1. The conveying module 4 is provided with a conveying channel 41 for conveying the workpiece 5 to be processed. It is understood that the conveying module 4 can be a conveyor line, conveyor belt, or other structure capable of conveying, and is not limited here. By providing the conveying channel 41 on the conveying module 4, it is convenient to use the conveying channel 41 for assembly line conveying of the workpiece 5, etc., and is not limited here. Optionally, the structure of the conveying module 4 can adopt the conveying structure in the prior art, and is not limited here.

[0134] The above description is merely an optional embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structural transformations made under the concept of the present invention using the description and drawings of the present invention, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present invention.
