Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a processing method for the casing of a smart device, belonging to the field of injection mold technology. Background Technology

[0002] Injection molds are tools used to produce plastic products; they also give plastic products their complete structure and precise dimensions. Injection molding is a processing method used for the mass production of certain complex-shaped parts.

[0003] Ejector sleeve ejection is one of the most common structures in injection molds. The components of the ejector sleeve assembly include the ejector sleeve and the ejector pin. The ejector pin forms the inner wall of the hollow column, while the ejector sleeve forms the bottom plane of the hollow column, and also functions to eject the hollow column. The ejector pin is fixed to the rear plate of the mold and will not move during mold opening and ejection. The ejector sleeve is fixed to the upper ejector plate, and the upper and lower ejector plates are fixed together by screws to form an ejection assembly. The ejector rod applies force to the lower ejector plate to separate the product from the mold core and the ejector pin.

[0004] However, ejection of the sleeve requires overcoming the friction and clamping force between the inner and outer walls of the hollow column of the product and the mold. The ejection area of ​​the sleeve structure is small, and the hollow column of the plastic product becomes shorter or deformed under the force during ejection. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a processing method for the casing of a smart device, which solves the problems of deformation and shortening of length of long hollow cylinders during demolding.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: a processing method for the shell of a smart device, used for injection molding of parts, based on an injection mold, the injection mold comprising: a female template on which a female mold core is installed, a male template below the female template on which a male mold core is installed, a rear mold fixing plate below the male template, and two mold feet disposed between the male template and the rear mold fixing plate, the lower surface of each of the two mold feet being connected to the upper surface of the rear mold fixing plate, an ejector plate that can move up and down being horizontally disposed between the two mold feet, a cavity for molding the part being formed between the female mold core and the male mold core, the part comprising a body and a hollow column formed on the body; A mold base plate is provided below the mold template. The edges of the lower surface of the mold base plate are connected to the upper surfaces of two mold feet respectively. An insert spring plate is provided between the mold base plate and the mold template. A mold insert corresponding to the hollow column is installed on the insert spring plate. The upper part of the mold insert is embedded in the mold core. The upper part of the ejector sleeve connected to the ejector plate at one end passes through the through hole opened in the center of the mold insert. The upper part of the ejector pin fixedly installed on the rear mold fixing plate at one end is correspondingly embedded in the ejector sleeve. Thus, a sub-cavity for forming the hollow column is formed between the mold insert, the ejector sleeve, and the ejector pin. At least two springs in a compressed state are provided between the mold base plate and the insert spring plate. An insert limiting structure is connected between the bullet insertion springboard and the male mold pad or the rear mold fixing plate, so that the relative movement stroke between the bullet insertion springboard and the male mold pad is D1. A male mold limiting structure is connected between the male mold plate and the male mold pad, so that the relative movement stroke between the male mold plate and the male mold pad is D2 and D2 is greater than D1. The processing method includes the following steps: Step 1: After injection molding is completed, the female mold plate drags the male mold plate and moves upward together in the mold closed state by D1. During this process: the insert spring plate with the male mold insert installed moves upward with the male mold plate by D1 under the action of the spring and reaches the stop point of the insert limit structure. The ejector pin, which is relatively fixed on the inner wall of the hollow column, moves upward by D1. Step 2: The male template continues to move upward until it moves upward relative to the male mold pad by D2 and reaches the stop point of the male mold limiting structure, so that the male template stops moving upward. During this process: the outer wall of the hollow column moves upward by D2-D1 relative to the male mold insert that has completed its stroke and stopped moving. Step 3: The female mold plate continues to move upward and separates from the male mold plate. The ejector plate with the ejector sleeve is driven upward by the ejector rod of the injection molding machine, so that the ejector sleeve, which is in contact with the lower end face of the hollow column, pushes the part upward and separates it from the male mold core.

[0007] The following are further improvements to the above technical solution: 1. In the above scheme, the body of the part is formed with 4 hollow pillars, and the hollow pillars are mounting pillars.

[0008] 2. In the above scheme, the length of the hollow column is greater than 32mm.

[0009] 3. In the above scheme, D1 is less than the length of the hollow cylinder, and D2 is greater than the length of the hollow cylinder.

[0010] 4. In the above scheme, the insert limiting structure includes: a plurality of height limiting screws corresponding to the spring, the lower end of the height limiting screw connected to the insert spring plate at the upper end passes through the male mold pad and is embedded in the height limiting groove opened on the upper surface of the rear mold fixing plate, the lower end of the height limiting screw has a flange portion extending radially outward, when the insert spring plate and the male mold pad are in a fitted state, there is a stroke gap D1 between the upper end face of the flange portion and the lower surface of the male mold pad.

[0011] 5. In the above solution, the height limiting screw further includes a body and a limiting sleeve fitted on the outside of the body, the spring is fitted on the outside of the limiting sleeve, the flange is disposed on the limiting sleeve, and the limiting sleeve is slidably engaged with the mold pad.

[0012] 6. In the above scheme, the male mold limiting structure includes: a male mold limiting screw with one end fixedly connected to the male mold pad or male mold template, and a male mold limiting sleeve fitted on the outside of the male mold limiting screw. The other end of the male mold limiting screw is embedded in a limiting groove opened on the male mold template or male mold pad. One end of the male mold limiting sleeve located in the limiting groove has a limiting flange portion extending radially outward. When the male mold pad and the male mold template are in a fitted state, there is a travel gap D2 between the limiting flange portion and the inner wall of one end of the limiting groove.

[0013] 7. In the above scheme, the lower end of the male mold limiting screw is fixedly connected to the male mold pad, and the upper surface of the male mold template is provided with the limiting groove. When the male mold pad and the male mold template are in a fitted state, the gap between the lower surface of the limiting flange and the lower inner wall of the limiting groove is D2.

[0014] 8. In the above scheme, the ejector plate further includes an upper ejector plate and a lower ejector plate, and the stacked upper ejector plate and lower ejector plate are fixedly connected by screws, and the sleeve is installed on the upper ejector plate.

[0015] 9. In the above scheme, at least two center support rods are connected between the rear mold fixing plate and the male mold pad plate. The center support rods pass through the ejector plate and slide with the ejector plate through a center support rod sleeve.

[0016] Due to the application of the above technical solution, the present invention has the following advantages compared with the prior art: The present invention discloses a processing method for the housing of a smart device. In the demolding process of an injection-molded part with a hollow cylinder, the part is moved upward and demolded in three sections. During the demolding process of the first two sections, the part is covered in multiple directions. This avoids the situation where the hollow cylinder is shortened or deformed due to excessive clamping force between the hollow cylinder and the ejector pin, thereby improving the appearance accuracy and yield of the product.

The above-mentioned mold limiting structure includes: a mold limiting screw 251 fixedly connected at one end to the mold pad 14 or the mold template 5, and a mold limiting sleeve 252 fitted on the outside of the mold limiting screw 251. The other end of the mold limiting screw 251 is embedded in a limiting groove opened on the mold template 5 or the mold pad 14.

The lower end is fixedly installed on the rear mold fixing plate 1.

The male mold insert is used to mold the outer wall of the hollow column, the ejector pin is used to mold the inner wall of the hollow column, and the ejector sleeve is used to mold the lower end face of the hollow column. The molded hollow column is tightly wrapped around the ejector pin, making it difficult for the molded part to be demolded.

The processing method includes the following steps: Step 1: After injection molding is completed, the female mold plate 1 drags the male mold plate 5 and moves upward together D1 in the mold closing state. During this process: the insert spring plate with the male mold insert 6 installed moves upward with the male mold plate 5 under the action of the spring 12 and reaches the stop point of the insert limit structure. The inner wall of the hollow column 102 moves upward relative to the fixed ejector pin 8, D1, to complete the core pulling action of the inner wall of the first section of the hollow column. Step 2: The male template 5 continues to move upward until it moves upward relative to the male mold pad 14 by D2 and reaches the stop point of the male mold limiting structure, so that the male template 5 stops moving upward. During this process, the male mold insert 6, which has stopped moving after the relative stroke of the outer wall of the hollow column 102 is completed, moves upward by D2-D1 to complete the demolding action of the second section of the hollow column outer wall forming surface. Step 3: The female mold plate 1 continues to move upward and separates from the male mold plate 5.

A return needle spring 23 is provided on the outside of the return needle 22 and located between the ejector plate and the male template 5. The aforementioned male mold pad 14 is provided with a clearance through hole for the return needle spring 23 to pass through.

The aforementioned part 100 is a housing component for a smart device; The aforementioned male template 5 is equipped with an opening / closing device 3 that mates with an opening on the female template 1, for connecting the male template 5 and the female template 1; A heat insulation plate 19 is installed on the lower surface of the aforementioned rear mold fixing plate 18; At least two guide posts 26 are connected between the male template 5 and the female template 1. The upper end of the guide post 26, which is fixedly connected to the male template 5 at its lower end, is slidably engaged with the female template 1 through a guide sleeve 27.

The upper surface of the male mold insert 6 is coplanar with the upper surface of the male mold core 4.

[0024] Working principle: During the mold opening process after the part is injection molded, the female mold plate drags the male mold plate upward synchronously through the damping force of the opening and closing device, so that the male mold plate and the male mold pad gradually separate. At this time, the insert plate with the male mold insert installed moves synchronously with the male mold plate under the action of the spring. The ejector pin installed on the rear mold fixing plate remains stationary, so that the molded part moves upward away from the ejector pin under the combined action of the male mold insert and the male and female mold cores to achieve relative movement and core pulling. It can also avoid the situation where the hollow column of the part becomes shorter or deformed due to excessive clamping force between the hollow column of the part and the ejector pin during the demolding process. Under the action of the height limiting screw and the mold base plate, the insert bullet jump plate and the mold insert can only move up the mold base plate by stroke D1 to make the hollow column part detach from the ejector pin, thus realizing the demolding of the upper inner wall of the hollow column. After the bullet springboard and the male mold insert stop moving, the male mold plate continues to move upward until the male mold plate moves upward relative to the male mold pad D2 and reaches the stop point of the male mold limiting structure, so that the male mold plate stops moving upward. During this process: the outer wall of the hollow column moves upward D2-D1 relative to the male mold insert which has completed its stroke and stopped moving. The female mold plate continues to move upward and separate from the male mold plate. The ejector plate with the ejector sleeve installed moves upward under the drive of the injection molding machine ejector rod, so that the ejector sleeve, which is in contact with the lower end face of the hollow column, pushes the part upward and separates it from the male mold core, further improving the dimensional accuracy of the hollow column after demolding.

[0025] Further explanation of the embodiments is as follows: This patent discloses a three-stage demolding technology for hollow column molds with a length greater than 32mm, which solves the problems of deformation and shortening of the length of long hollow columns during ejection. The technology divides the clamping force of the hollow column into three stages for demolding. Each stage of demolding requires overcoming a clamping force that is only one-third of that in the original sleeve structure, thereby achieving the required precision of the product. The upper and lower plates of the male mold and the male mold insert are connected by screws to form the pop-up insert assembly. The pop-up male mold plate and the equal height limit screw, the ejector pin part is fixed to the rear plate fixing plate, and the return pin stop block is connected to the upper and lower ejector pin plates to form the ejector pin assembly. The ejector pin is demolded from the product in the first stage by moving upward with the pop-up male mold plate. The pop-up insert assembly is placed below the male mold fixing plate. The upper and lower movement stroke of the pop-up insert assembly is limited by the height limit sleeve and the height limit screw. The pop-up male mold plate is located on the male mold pad plate and is demolded from the product in the second stage by sliding up and down with the male mold guide post installed on the male mold pad plate. The injection molding machine ejector rod acts on the lower ejector plate to apply force to the ejector assembly to complete the ejector pin ejection of the product in the third stage. It enables segmented ejection of products with long hollow columns, solves the problem of column deformation and shortening caused by excessive ejection force of the ejector pin, optimizes the mold structure, and completely solves the bottleneck problem in product development.

[0026] When using the above-mentioned processing method for the shell of intelligent devices, during the demolding process of injection molded parts with hollow cylinders, the parts are moved upwards and demolded in three sections. During the demolding process of the first two sections, the parts are covered in multiple directions. This avoids the situation where the hollow cylinder is shortened or deformed due to excessive clamping force between the hollow cylinder and the ejector pin, thereby improving the appearance accuracy and yield of the product.

They should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention. All equivalent changes or modifications made in accordance with the spirit and essence of the present invention should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.

An insert plate is provided between the male mold pad (14) and the male mold template (5). A male mold insert (6) corresponding to the hollow column (102) is installed on the insert plate. The upper part of the male mold insert (6) is embedded in the male mold core (4), and the lower end is connected to the ejector plate. The upper part of the ejector sleeve (7) is inserted into the through hole in the center of the male mold insert (6), and the upper part of the ejector pin (8) fixed on the rear mold fixing plate (18) is correspondingly embedded in the ejector sleeve (7), thereby forming a sub-cavity for molding a hollow column (102) between the male mold insert (6), the ejector sleeve (7), and the ejector pin (8). At least two springs (12) in a compressed state are provided between the male mold pad (14) and the insert bullet jump plate. An insert limiting structure is connected between the bullet insertion springboard and the male mold pad (14) or the rear mold fixing plate (18), so that the relative movement stroke between the bullet insertion springboard and the male mold pad (14) is D1. A male mold limiting structure is connected between the male mold template (5) and the male mold pad (14), so that the relative movement stroke between the male mold template (5) and the male mold pad (14) is D2 and D2 is greater than D1. D1 is less than the length of the hollow column (102) and D2 is greater than the length of the hollow column (102). The processing method includes the following steps: Step 1: After injection molding is completed, the female template (1) drags the male template (5) and moves upward together in the mold closing state by D1. During this process: the insert spring plate with the male mold insert (6) installed moves upward with the male template (5) under the action of the spring (12) and reaches the stop point of the insert limiting structure. The inner wall of the hollow column (102) moves upward relative to the fixed ejector pin (8) by D1. Step 2: The male template (5) continues to move upward until the male template (5) moves upward relative to the male mold pad (14) by D2 and reaches the stop point of the male mold limiting structure so that the male template (5) no longer moves upward. During this process: the male mold insert (6) that has stopped moving after the relative stroke of the outer wall of the hollow column (102) moves upward by D2-D1. Step 3: The female template (1) continues to move upward and separates from the male template (5). The ejector plate with the ejector sleeve (7) is driven upward by the ejector rod of the injection molding machine, so that the ejector sleeve (7) which is in contact with the lower end face of the hollow column (102) pushes the part (100) upward and separates it from the male mold core (4).
