[0077] After forming, the support 9 is lowered through the further work of the extrusion assembly and the cooperation of the connecting assembly, so that the connecting cylinder 20 and the connecting pipe 21 are relatively displaced, until the sealing ring 25 on the connecting pipe 21 seals the connecting cylinder 20 and the connecting pipe 21, at this time, due to the lowering of the support 9, the support 9 is immersed in the cooling liquid of the cooling box 1, so as to cool the formed metal rubber material, so as to shape the metal rubber material, and the connecting cylinder 20 and the connecting pipe 21 are in a sealed state, so as to realize that only the heat conducting oil in the cavity is cooled, and only the heat conducting oil stored in the cavity needs to be heated in the next heating work, so as to reduce the heating amount of the heat conducting oil, and further reduce the energy consumption, and save the production cost.
