Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of utility knife shell injection molding, and more specifically, to an injection molding mold for a utility knife shell. Background Art

[0002] Utility knife, also known as carving knife or wallpaper knife, is a kind of knife used for art and handicrafts. It is mainly used to cut soft things. It is mostly composed of shell and blade, and is a pull-out structure. There are also a few with metal handles. The blade is mostly beveled. It can be broken along the line of the blade body when blunt, and a new blade will appear, which is convenient for use.

[0003] The shell is also called the plastic knife handle 01, which is mostly produced by injection molding. The existing utility knife shell structure is as follows Figure 1 As shown, it includes a knife handle 01, a knife shell 02, an adjusting block 03 and a tail block 04. A knife groove 05 is opened on the tail block 04. When the blade is blunt, the tail block 04 can be taken out, and the knife groove 05 is inserted into the blade to assist the blade to break. It can be seen that when producing a utility knife, it is necessary to separately injection mold the knife handle 01, the knife shell 02, the adjusting block 03 and the tail block 04 and then assemble them. However, most of the existing injection molds can only inject a single part with a single function. When producing a utility knife, four sets of injection molds are required, resulting in high production costs. In addition, the replacement of the mold also takes time, which affects the production efficiency. In view of this, we propose an injection mold for the outer shell of a utility knife.

[0019] 2. The present invention adopts the structural design of the intermittent rotating mechanism, so that the output shaft of the servo motor is controlled by the external control mechanism to rotate one circle, the connecting shaft A rotates, and the disc A and the movable column rotate with the connecting shaft A as the axis. When the connecting shaft A is connected, the movable column moves in one of the centripetal grooves and enters the eccentric end of the other centripetal groove after being disengaged. When the movable column moves in the centripetal groove, the disc B drives the connecting shaft B to rotate. The number of the centripetal grooves is set to four in a circular structure with equal spacing, so that the disc B rotates exactly 90 degrees, and the connecting shaft B located on the upper module drives the corresponding rotating column Rotating 90 degrees just completes the change of the injection cavity. The connecting shaft B on the lower module drives the lifting mechanism to rotate 90 degrees, and the disc A rotates, and the circular block rotates relative to the limiting arc groove. The notch of the circular block does not affect the rotation of the disc B. After the movable column enters one of the centripetal grooves and moves out, the outer edge of the circular block is limited to the limiting arc groove, so that the disc B will not rotate under the inertia factor, ensuring the stability of the intermittent rotation mechanism of 90 degrees, and facilitating the adjustment between the injection molding cavity of the tool handle, the injection molding cavity of the tool shell, the injection molding cavity of the adjustment block and the injection molding cavity of the tail block.

[0020] 3. The present invention adopts the structural design of the lifting mechanism, so that when the connecting shaft B rotates, it drives the connecting rod and the main shaft to rotate, so that the ball block moves relative to the adaptive guide groove. When the ball block moves relative to the adaptive guide groove located at the centripetal end surface of the groove, the position of the push rod remains stationary. When the ball block moves relative to the adaptive guide groove located at the gap between the two grooves, the ball block drives the push rod to move along the corresponding active hole groove in the eccentric direction first. After a short stay, the ball block drives the push rod to interactively move along the centripetal direction of the corresponding active hole groove to complete the lifting and return to the original position, which is used for demolding of utility knife shell parts after injection molding.

[0021] 4. The present invention, through the structural design of the forward rotation mechanism and the reverse rotation mechanism, makes the connecting shaft B located on the lower module rotate forward, the reverse swivel rotate forward and drive the forward swivel to rotate forward through the limiting column B, so that the swivel column and the lifting mechanism rotate forward as a whole, which is used for adjustment between the injection cavity, the tool handle injection cavity, the knife shell injection cavity, the adjustment block injection cavity and the tail block injection cavity. The connecting shaft B located on the lower module rotates reversely, the reverse swivel rotates reversely relative to the forward swivel, and the forward swivel remains stationary, causing the connecting rod and the main shaft to rotate. It can be seen from the lifting mechanism that the ejector rod moves back and forth in the centripetal direction, which is used for demolding of the utility knife shell parts after injection molding.

[0049] In the embodiment of the present invention, the upper module 1 and the lower module 2 are both provided with a mounting groove 23 at one end away from the feed port 21 , and the upper module 1 and the lower module 2 are both provided with a cavity 24 at a gap position relative to the mounting groove 23 and the mounting circular groove 22 .

[0050] In an embodiment of the present invention, a column groove 46 is opened in the rotating column 4 located on the lower module 2, and a plurality of groups of movable hole grooves 47 are opened on the column groove 46 in a linear and evenly spaced structure. Each group of movable hole grooves 47 includes four arranged in a ring-shaped structure. The four movable hole grooves 47 are respectively connected with the handle injection half groove 42, the knife shell injection half groove 43, the adjustment block injection half groove 44 and the tail block injection half groove 45 located on the lower module 2.

[0051] In an embodiment of the present invention, the adjustment block injection molding half groove 44 includes a plurality of injection molding half grooves A441 arranged in a linear and equidistant structure, and any two adjacent injection molding half grooves A441 are connected through a connecting groove A442, and the tail block injection molding half groove 45 includes a plurality of injection molding half grooves B451 arranged in a linear and equidistant structure, and any two adjacent injection molding half grooves B451 are connected through a connecting groove B452.

After the injection molding is completed, they are subsequently separated. This step is a prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0052] In an embodiment of the present invention, the intermittent rotating mechanism 6 includes a servo motor 61, a connecting shaft A62 and a connecting shaft B63. The servo motor 61 is fixed on the mounting groove 23. The connecting shaft A62 and the connecting shaft B63 are both rotatably arranged in the cavity 24. The connecting shaft A62 passes through the cavity 24 and extends into the mounting groove 23 and is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the servo motor 61. A disc A64 is fixedly provided on the connecting shaft A62, and a movable column 66 is fixedly provided on the disc A64. A disc B65 is fixedly provided on the connecting shaft B63. The disc B65 and the disc A64 are arranged alternately. Four centripetal grooves 69 are provided in an annular equidistant structure on the disc B65, and the movable column 66 cooperates with the movable disc of the centripetal groove 69; the connecting shaft B63 located on the upper module 1 penetrates into the rotating groove 3 and is fixedly connected to the corresponding rotating column 4, and the connecting shaft B63 located on the lower module 2 penetrates into the wall of the lower module 2 close to the lifting mechanism 7 at one end and is fixedly connected to the input end of the lifting mechanism 7. The present invention, through the structural design of the intermittent rotating mechanism 6, makes it possible to control the output shaft of the servo motor 61 to rotate one circle through the external control mechanism, and the connecting shaft A62 rotates, so that the disk A64 and the movable column 66 rotate with the connecting shaft A62 as the axis. When the connecting shaft A62 is connected, the movable column 66 moves into one of the centripetal grooves 69 and then enters the eccentric end of the other centripetal groove 69 after being disengaged. When the movable column 66 moves in the centripetal groove 69, the disk B65 drives the connecting shaft B63 to rotate. The number of the centripetal grooves 69 is set to four in a circular equidistant structure, so that the disk B65 rotates exactly 90 degrees, and the connecting shaft B63 located on the upper module 1 drives the corresponding rotating column 4 to rotate 90 degrees, just completing the change of the injection cavity, and the connecting shaft B63 located on the lower module 2 drives the lifting mechanism 7 to rotate 90 degrees.

[0053] In the embodiment of the present invention, the disc B65 is provided with a limit arc groove 67 at the position relative to any two centripetal grooves 69, and the disc A64 is fixed with a circular notch block 68 at one end close to the limit arc groove 67, and the circular notch block 68 is movably matched with the limit arc groove 67. Through the above arrangement, the present invention allows the disc A64 to rotate, and the circular notch block 68 to rotate relative to the limit arc groove 67. The notch of the circular notch block 68 does not affect the rotation of the disc B65, and after the movable column 66 enters one of the centripetal grooves 69 and moves and disengages, the outer edge of the circular notch block 68 faces the limit arc groove 67 to limit the disc B65, so that the disc B65 will not rotate under the inertia factor, ensuring the stability of the 90-degree rotation of the intermittent rotating mechanism 6, and facilitating the adjustment between the injection molding cavity of the knife handle, the injection molding cavity of the knife shell, the injection molding cavity of the adjustment block, and the injection molding cavity of the tail block.

[0054] In an embodiment of the present invention, the lifting mechanism 7 includes a main shaft 71, which is rotatably arranged in the column groove 46. Four grooves 72 are provided on the main shaft 71 in an annular equidistant structure. The grooves 72 are trapezoidal in structure, and the centripetal end faces of the grooves 72 are in an arc structure. Both ends of the eccentric side of the grooves 72 are chamfered. A plurality of adapting guide grooves 73 are provided on the surface of the main shaft 71 relative to the positions of the plurality of movable hole grooves 47. Four ball blocks 74 are movably connected to the adapting guide grooves 73. The ball blocks 74 are fixed with push rods 75, and the plurality of push rods 75 are movably connected to the plurality of movable hole grooves 47 respectively. Connecting rods 76 are provided at both ends of the main shaft 71. The connecting rods 76 are rotatably connected to the column grooves 46. The connecting shaft B63 penetrates into the wall of the lower module 2 close to one end of the main shaft 71 and is fixedly connected to the corresponding connecting rods 76. The present invention adopts the structural design of the lifting mechanism 7, so that when the connecting shaft B63 rotates 90 degrees, it drives the connecting rod 76 and the main shaft 71 to rotate, so that the ball block 74 moves relative to the adapting guide groove 73. When the ball block 74 moves relative to the adapting guide groove 73 located at the centripetal end surface of the groove 72, the position of the push rod 75 remains unchanged. When the ball block 74 moves relative to the adapting guide groove 73 located at the gap between the two grooves 72, the ball block 74 drives the push rod 75 to move along the corresponding active hole groove 47 in the eccentric direction first. After a short stay, the ball block 74 drives the push rod 75 to interactively complete the lifting and return to the original position along the centripetal direction of the corresponding active hole groove 47, which is used for demolding of the utility knife shell parts after injection molding.

[0055] In an embodiment of the present invention, the forward rotation mechanism 8 includes an outer ring 81, which is fixed in the mounting circular groove 22. A limiting protrusion A82 is integrally connected to the inner edge surface of the outer ring 81. A forward swivel ring 83 is rotatably connected to the limiting protrusion A82. The forward swivel ring 83 is fixedly connected to the rotating column 4 located on the lower module 2. A plurality of positive arc grooves 84 are provided in a circular equidistant structure on the outer edge surface of the forward swivel ring 83. The depth of the positive arc grooves 84 gradually decreases in the clockwise direction. The positive arc grooves 84 are adapted in shape to the limiting protrusion A82, and the gap between the positive arc grooves 84 and the limiting protrusion A82 constitutes a reverse limiting cavity. A limiting column A85 is movably connected in the reverse limiting cavity. The limiting column A85 is adapted in shape to the reverse limiting cavity, and the limiting column A85 is elastically connected to the wide part of the positive arc groove 84 through a spring A86. A limiting protrusion B87 is integrally connected to the inner edge surface of the forward swivel ring 83. Through the structural design of the forward rotation mechanism 8, the present invention ensures that the limit column A85 is always located in the middle position of the reverse limit cavity under the elastic force of the spring A86, so that when the forward swivel ring 83 rotates forward, the limit column A85 has a force to move toward the wide part of the forward arc groove 84, which has little effect on the rotation of the forward swivel ring 83. When the forward swivel ring 83 rotates reversely, the limit column A85 has a force to move toward the narrow part of the forward arc groove 84, causing the limit protrusion A82 to lock the forward swivel ring 83 through the limit column A85, so that the forward swivel ring 83 cannot rotate forward and can only rotate forward.

[0056] In an embodiment of the present invention, the reverse rotation mechanism 9 includes a reverse rotating ring 91, which is rotatably arranged on the limiting protrusion B87. The reverse rotating ring 91 is fixedly connected to the connecting shaft B63 located on the lower module 2. A plurality of reverse arc grooves 92 are provided in a circular equidistant structure on the outer edge surface of the reverse rotating ring 91. The depth of the reverse arc grooves 92 gradually decreases in the counterclockwise direction. The reverse arc grooves 92 are adapted to the shape of the limiting protrusion B87, and the gap between the reverse arc grooves 92 and the limiting protrusion B87 constitutes a forward limiting cavity. A limiting column B93 is movably connected in the forward limiting cavity. The limiting column B93 is adapted to the shape of the forward limiting cavity, and the limiting column B93 is elastically connected to the wide part of the reverse arc groove 92 through a spring B94. The present invention has a structural design for the reverse rotation mechanism 9. Through the principle of the forward rotation mechanism 8, it can be known that the connecting shaft B63 located on the lower module 2 rotates forward, the reverse swivel 91 rotates forward and drives the forward swivel 83 to rotate forward through the limiting column B93, causing the rotating column 4 and the lifting mechanism 7 to rotate forward as a whole, which is used for adjustment between the injection cavity, the tool handle injection cavity, the knife shell injection cavity, the adjustment block injection cavity and the tail block injection cavity. The connecting shaft B63 located on the lower module 2 rotates reversely, the reverse swivel 91 rotates reversely relative to the forward swivel 83, and the forward swivel 83 remains stationary, causing the connecting rod 76 and the main shaft 71 to rotate. It can be known from the lifting mechanism 7 that the ejector rod 75 moves back and forth in the centripetal direction, which is used for demolding of the utility knife shell parts after injection molding.

[0057] Working principle: This embodiment provides an injection mold for a utility knife shell. The injection molding process is a prior art and will not be described in detail here. When adjustment is required between the knife handle injection molding cavity, the knife shell injection molding cavity, the adjustment block injection molding cavity and the tail block injection molding cavity; the servo motor 61 output shaft is controlled by an external control mechanism to rotate one circle in the positive direction, and the connecting shaft A62 rotates, so that the disk A64 and the movable column 66 rotate with the connecting shaft A62 as the axis. The connecting shaft A62 rotates, and the movable column 66 moves in one of the centripetal grooves 69 and disengages and then enters the eccentric end of the other centripetal groove 69. When the movable column 66 moves in the centripetal groove 69, the disk B65 drives the connecting shaft B63 to rotate, and the setting The number of the centripetal grooves 69 is four and they are arranged in a circular structure with equal spacing, so that the disc B65 rotates exactly 90 degrees, and the connecting shaft B63 on the upper module 1 drives the corresponding rotating column 4 to rotate 90 degrees, just completing the change of the injection cavity. The number of rotations of the output shaft of the servo motor 61 can be determined according to the required injection cavity. The connecting shaft B63 on the lower module 2 rotates one circle, and the reverse rotating ring 91 rotates forward and drives the forward rotating ring 83 to rotate forward through the limiting cylinder B93, so that the rotating column 4 and the lifting mechanism 7 rotate forward as a whole. The number of rotations of the output shaft of the servo motor 61 is determined according to the required injection cavity, and the injection cavity on the rotating column 4 on the lower module 2 is adjusted;

[0058] After injection molding, the output shaft of the servo motor 61 is controlled by an external control mechanism to rotate in the opposite direction for one circle, and the reverse swivel ring 91 rotates in the opposite direction relative to the forward swivel ring 83, while the forward swivel ring 83 remains stationary, causing the connecting rod 76 and the main shaft 71 to rotate, thereby driving the connecting rod 76 and the main shaft 71 to rotate, so that the ball block 74 moves relative to the adapting guide groove 73. When the ball block 74 moves relative to the adapting guide groove 73 located at the centripetal end surface of the groove 72, the position of the ejector rod 75 remains stationary. When the ball block 74 moves relative to the adapting guide groove 73 located at the gap position between the two grooves 72, the ball block 74 drives the ejector rod 75 to move along the corresponding active hole groove 47 in the eccentric direction first. After a short stay, the ball block 74 drives the ejector rod 75 to interactively complete the ejection and return to the original position along the centripetal direction of the corresponding active hole groove 47. When the ejector rod 75 is ejected, the plastic knife shell parts after injection molding in the injection molding cavity are demolded.
