Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of forming dies, and in particular to a segmented pre-pressing pre-forming die. Background Art

[0002] At present, carbon fiber products are generally produced in the industry using a molding process, which includes the following steps: (1) Cutting process: Cut the pre-impregnated carbon fiber cloth into appropriate shapes and lay the foundation for the subsequent bonding of the carbon fiber cloth and the mold; (2) Heating and shaping process: Heat the pre-impregnated carbon fiber cloth at a lower heating temperature (below 75°C) and a lower pressure (below 0.1MPA), and use a pre-pressing mold to pre-press the carbon fiber cloth so that it can fit the surface of the final mold; (3) Molding process: Place the pre-pressed carbon fiber cloth into the final mold to fit the surface of the final mold. However, when pre-forming complex parts or multi-step parts, the two ends of the mold will first press the carbon fiber cloth, causing the two sides to pull the middle, resulting in the tearing of the carbon fiber cloth.

[0003] Therefore, a segmented pre-compression preforming die with tear-proof properties is provided. Summary of the invention

[0035] Reference Figure 1-8 A segmented pre-pressing preforming mold 100 includes: an upper mold 101, a base 102, a lower mold 103, a first lifting block 104, a first adjusting member for adjusting the height of the first lifting block 104, a guide block 105, a second lifting block 106, a second adjusting member for adjusting the height of the second lifting block 106, and a guide column 107. The upper mold 101 is located above the lower mold 103, and the lower mold 103 is located above the base 102 and fixedly connected to the base 102. The base 102 includes a groove 102a, and the guide block 105 is located in the groove 102a. The base 102 is provided with a guide hole extending along the height direction of the base 102, and the guide column 107 is partially located in the guide hole and moves along the axial direction of the guide hole.

[0036] The first lifting block 104 is vertically slidably connected to the lower mold 103. Specifically, the lower mold 103 is provided with a first slide groove 103a extending along the height direction of the lower mold 103, and the first lifting block 104 moves along the first slide groove 103a. The guide block 105 is fixedly connected to the base 102. The second lifting block 106 is vertically slidably connected to the guide block 105. Specifically, the second lifting block 106 includes a guide groove 106a, and the guide block 105 is partially located in the guide groove 106a, which is used to guide the second lifting block 106. The guide column 107 is fixedly connected to the upper mold 101. Among them, a plurality of first lifting blocks 104 are provided, and the heights of the plurality of first lifting blocks 104 gradually decrease from the center to both ends, and a plurality of groups of first adjustment members are provided corresponding to the first lifting blocks 104.

The structure of the second lifting member is the same as that of the first lifting member, and the second adjusting member is used to adjust the height of the second lifting block 106. When the mold is closed, the two middle first lifting blocks 104 will fix the carbon fiber cloth in the middle part, and then the first spring 108 under the two middle first lifting blocks 104 will be compressed until the upper mold 101 abuts against the first lifting blocks 104 on both sides, thereby pressing the carbon fiber cloth on both sides, and fixing the carbon fiber cloth from the middle to both ends in turn, thereby preventing the carbon fiber cloth at both ends from borrowing material from the middle, causing the carbon fiber cloth in the middle to tear, thus having the effect of preventing tearing.

[0039] Working process: When in use, the upper mold 101 is driven down by the hydraulic cylinder, and the upper mold 101 will abut against the two first lifting blocks 104 in the middle, thereby fixing the carbon fiber cloth in the middle part, and then the first spring 108 under the two first lifting blocks 104 in the middle will be compressed until the upper mold 101 abuts against the first lifting blocks 104 on both sides, thereby pressing the carbon fiber cloth on both sides, and fixing the carbon fiber cloth from the middle to both ends in turn (that is, fixing the carbon fiber cloth in sections), thereby preventing the carbon fiber cloth at both ends from borrowing material from the middle, causing the carbon fiber cloth in the middle to tear, so it has the effect of preventing tearing. When multiple first lifting blocks 104 and second lifting blocks 106 are abutted against the upper end of the base 102, the molding of the carbon fiber cloth is completed.
