Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of vehicle bottom moulds, and in particular to a composite material passenger vehicle bottom mould which is convenient for demoulding and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of the global automotive industry, automobile lightweighting has become a core strategy to improve fuel efficiency, reduce emissions and enhance vehicle performance, and bus chassis design is also undergoing continuous technological innovation. The chassis of traditional buses is mainly made of metal materials such as steel. These materials have high strength, toughness and stability, but they show significant limitations in lightweight, corrosion resistance and fuel efficiency. In recent years, composite materials, as an advanced new material, have been widely used in the automotive manufacturing industry due to their excellent properties such as light weight, high strength and corrosion resistance. Especially in bus chassis design, the application of composite materials has shown great potential. The composite vehicle bottom can not only significantly reduce the weight of the vehicle, but also improve fuel economy and driving stability, while providing better sound insulation and heat insulation, and improving the integration of components. However, as Figure 1 As shown, it is a composite vehicle floor panel, including front door pedal 91, cockpit area 92, front wheel cover 93, front wheel floor 94, front and rear wheel floor 95, rear door pedal 96, rear wheel cover 97, rear wheel floor 98 and rear step 99. The above structure is usually a non-standard multi-faceted irregular shape, including multiple concave and convex vertical surfaces, curved surfaces and inclined surfaces, and folded edges perpendicular to these surfaces are evenly distributed around. Composite products with this structure often face challenges in molding quality control and demoulding. The molds used to replicate vehicle bottom products also face design and manufacturing difficulties. Therefore, the mold structure design, function design and molding method of vehicle bottom products are particularly critical.
[0003] CN106273099A discloses a demoulding structure and demoulding method for a large vacuum infusion mold. The mold adopts metal inserts and ejection and exhaust mechanisms to solve the problem of demoulding products due to complex product appearance and structure and too small draft angle. The ejection and exhaust mechanisms are used to solve the problem of product infusion defects caused by excessive thickness of local layers of the product. The ejection and exhaust mechanisms that do not need to be embedded in the main shell of the mold are used to avoid the problem of cracking of metal embedded parts in the main shell of the composite material mold. However, there are many disadvantages of the inserts designed as above, which are mainly manifested in: 1) The inserts are made of metal, which does not match the thermal expansion coefficient of the composite material main mold, resulting in deformation, dislocation and other problems in the mold during use; 2) Composite materials are sensitive to temperature, and metal inserts may cause local overheating of the composite material, affecting its performance; 3) There are many vertical surfaces at the wheel hubs of the four wheels, and an insert is designed for each vertical surface, resulting in too many vertical surfaces, increasing the complexity and cost of the mold, extending the processing cycle, increasing the difficulty of maintenance, and increasing the risk of deformation of the wheel profile; 4) When encountering a narrow aisle between the wheel hubs of the two wheels, although this insert design method can solve the demolding problem, the machine tool head cannot enter the narrow space to process the positive mold of the bottom of the vehicle, and faces manufacturing difficulties.

[0050] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the present embodiment provides a method for preparing a composite bus underbody mold that is easy to demould, comprising the following steps:
[0051] 101) According to the required shape of the vehicle floor, a main body mold 1 for preparing the vehicle floor is prepared by using composite materials. The front wheel inter-floor forming part and the rear wheel inter-floor forming part of the main body mold 1 are designed with movable blocks. The front wheel inter-floor forming part is reserved with a front limiting groove 4, and the rear wheel inter-floor forming part is reserved with a rear limiting groove 10. The bottoms of the front limiting groove 4 and the rear limiting groove 10 are both reserved with embedded grooves for installing a push mechanism, and the bottoms of each embedded groove are provided with a through hole 5 for a push rod of the push mechanism to pass through;
[0052] 102) A front movable block mold 2 conforming to the molding part of the floor between the front wheels and a rear movable block mold 3 conforming to the molding part of the floor between the rear wheels are respectively prepared using composite materials;
[0053] 103) A push mechanism is installed in each embedded groove, and a push rod of the push mechanism is fixed to the main mold 1 through a through-hole 5 and a nut 9, and the front movable block mold 2 is fixed to the front limit groove 4, and the rear movable block mold 3 is fixed to the rear limit groove 10. After assembly, a composite bus bottom mold that is easy to demould is obtained.
[0054] The present invention provides a method for preparing a composite bus underbody mold that is easy to demold. The floor molding parts between the front wheels and the floor molding parts between the rear wheels of the main mold 1 are designed with movable blocks. A front movable block mold 2 that follows the molding part of the floor between the front wheels and a rear movable block mold 3 that follows the molding part of the floor between the rear wheels are prepared using composite materials. The installation position of a push mechanism is designed. During demolding, the front movable block mold 2, the rear movable block mold 3 cooperate with the push mechanism to quickly demold the molded product. The front movable block mold 2 and the rear movable block mold 3 are made of the same material as the main mold 1 and have the same thermal expansion coefficient. They will not be deformed or misaligned during the molding and heating process, thereby preventing the obtained underbody from being deformed.
[0055] The design of the front limit groove 4 and the rear limit groove 10 of the present invention facilitates the precise matching of the front movable block mold 2 and the rear movable block mold 3. The bottoms of the front limit groove 4 and the rear limit groove 10 are lower than the upper end surfaces of the front wheel cover molding parts and the rear wheel cover molding parts adjacent to the main mold 1. The front movable block mold 2 and the rear movable block mold 3 can be embedded to a certain depth to avoid shaking of the front movable block mold 2 and the rear movable block mold 3, thereby ensuring the stability of the installation.
[0056] The filler of the present invention is filled with putty. The joint between the front movable block mold 2 and the main mold is filled with putty, scraped flat, and covered with Teflon high-temperature tape; the joint between the rear movable block mold 3 and the main mold 1 is filled with putty, scraped flat, and covered with Teflon high-temperature tape.
[0057] like Figure 4 As shown, the pushing mechanism provided in this embodiment includes a flange 6 which is tightly fitted into the embedded groove, the lower end surface of the flange 6 is provided with a pushing rod 7 which passes through the through hole 5, the bottom of the pushing rod 7 is provided with an exhaust hole, the exhaust hole passes through the flange 6 upward, the outer wall of the pushing rod 7 is provided with an external thread, and the nut 9 is screwed and fixed to the pushing rod 7 through the external thread; heating wires are arranged inside the front live block mold 2 and the rear live block mold 3; it can ensure that the front live block mold and the rear live block mold have the heating function like the main mold, so as to ensure the overall molding effect of the vehicle floor.
[0058] The present invention designs a pushing mechanism, and the pushing mechanism has three functions. First, an upward jack force can be applied to the pushing mechanism to realize the ejection of the front block mold 2 and the rear block mold 3; second, the gas generated when the front block mold 2 and the rear block mold 3 are connected to the main mold 1 of the bottom of the vehicle can be output; third, heating wires are arranged inside the front block mold 2 and the rear block mold 3, and the power cord of the heating wire can be led out from the exhaust hole. The structural design is simple, and the functions of exhaust, power cord lead-in and pushing can be completed, which is convenient for installation and disassembly.
[0059] like Figure 4 As shown, a sealing groove is provided on the lower plate surface of the flange 6 of this embodiment along the periphery of the push rod 7, and a sealing gasket is tightly embedded in the sealing groove; the sealing gasket is made of rubber and fits tightly to the main mold 1, thereby preventing leakage of gas, resin glue, etc., ensuring the sealing of the system and preventing leakage of the medium.
[0060] like Figure 5 As shown, the front live block mold 2 of this embodiment includes a first front live block unit 21, a second front live block unit 22 and a third front live block unit 23 which are spliced in sequence. After the front live block mold 2 is installed in the front limit groove 4, the gap between the first front live block unit 21 and the second front live block unit 22 and the splicing seam between the second front live block unit 22 and the third front live block unit 23 are filled with fillers; the splicing surfaces of the first front live block unit 21, the second front live block unit 22 and the third front live block unit 23 are all provided with a draft angle; due to design requirements, the outer wall of the front live block mold 2 needs to be processed into a vertical surface, The vertical surface of 800mm is not easy to demold, so the front block mold 2 is designed to be split, and the joint surfaces of the first front block unit 21, the second front block unit 22 and the third front block unit 23 are all provided with draft angles to facilitate demolding. In addition, the overall weight of the front block mold 2 is about 400 kg, which is inconvenient to hoist as a whole. The split design makes hoisting convenient. During ejection, due to the split setting of the front block mold 2, the weight of the unit component is reduced, and the ejection force required is reduced compared to the integral component, thereby avoiding adverse effects on the overall shape of the product due to excessive ejection force.
[0061] like Figure 6As shown, the rear movable block mold 3 of this embodiment includes a first rear movable block unit 31, a second rear movable block unit 32 and a third rear movable block unit 33 which are spliced in sequence. After the rear movable block mold 3 is installed in the rear limit groove 10, the gap between the first rear movable block unit 31 and the second rear movable block unit 32 and the splicing seam between the second rear movable block unit 32 and the third rear movable block unit 33 are filled with fillers; the splicing surfaces of the first rear movable block unit 31, the second rear movable block unit 32 and the third rear movable block unit 33 are all provided with a draft angle; the two sides of the rear movable block mold 3 are right-angled surfaces, which are not easy to demold during demolding. Therefore, the front movable block mold 2 is split-designed, and the splicing surfaces of the first rear movable block unit 31, the second rear movable block unit 32 and the third rear movable block unit 23 are all provided with a draft angle to facilitate demolding. In addition, the overall weight of the rear movable block mold 3 is about 400 kilograms, which is inconvenient to hoist as a whole. The split design is convenient for hoisting. Furthermore, during ejection, since the rear live block mold 3 is separately arranged, the weight of the single component is reduced, and the ejection force required is reduced compared to the integral component, thereby avoiding adverse effects on the overall shape of the product due to excessive ejection force.
[0062] In some embodiments, the draft angle is 4°-6°, and the setting of the draft angle makes demolding easier.
[0063] In some embodiments, the first front movable block unit 21, the second front movable block unit 22 and the third front movable block unit 23 are provided with front lifting holes on both sides; the first rear movable block unit 31, the second rear movable block unit 32 and the third rear movable block unit 33 are provided with rear lifting holes on both sides. The above design facilitates grabbing with a lifting hook and facilitates lifting.
[0064] In some embodiments, four embedded grooves are provided on the main mold 1, namely the first embedded groove, the second embedded groove, the third embedded groove and the fourth embedded groove. The first embedded groove is located below the first front live block unit 21, the second embedded groove is located below the third front live block unit 23, the third embedded groove is located below the first rear live block unit 31, and the fourth embedded groove is located below the third rear live block unit 33. Multiple pushing mechanisms can be installed to share the force points of the front live block mold 2 and the rear live block mold 3 to avoid stress concentration, affect the shape of the finished product, and improve the quality of the obtained product.
[0065] like Figure 7 As shown, the preparation method of the first front live block unit 21, the second front live block unit 22 and the third front live block unit 23 of this embodiment includes:
[0066] 201) preparing a male mold A12, the male mold A12 comprising two mating bottom plates A121, the outer end surface of each bottom plate A121 is provided with a side plate A122 extending upward, and the bottom plate A121 and the two side plates A122 are surrounded by a molding groove A;
[0067] 202) Three plug-in slots A are provided along the length direction of the bottom plate A121, and the inner wall of the corresponding side plate A122 is provided with a side slot A which penetrates the plug-in slots A;
[0068] 203) Insert the partition plates A123 into each insertion slot A, and insert both side ends of each partition plate A123 into the corresponding side slot A, so as to separate the forming slot A into three unit slots A;
[0069] 204) FRP is hand-laid in each unit slot A. After solidification, heating wires are laid on the FRP and fixed. Glass fiber cloth, foam and glass fiber cloth are laid. Vacuum infusion process is used for molding. The positive mold A is removed to obtain the first front block unit 21, the second front block unit 22 and the third front block unit 23.
[0070] The inner wall of the male mold A12 needs to be processed to obtain the required shape of the floor molding part between the front wheels. The bottom width of the male mold A12 is only 450-500mm. If the integral male mold A12 is used, the processing head of the CNC machine tool cannot be inserted to perform surface processing, and it can only be processed manually, with low production efficiency and poor accuracy. The design of the male mold A12 of the present invention is that the male mold A12 includes two matching bottom plates A121, and the outer end surface of each bottom plate A121 is provided with a side plate A122 extending upward. The bottom plate A121 and the two side plates A122 are surrounded by a molding groove A. The split design is conducive to using the processing head of the CNC machine tool to process it into the required shape, which is convenient for processing and improves work efficiency. At the same time, the split design is also conducive to later demolding. In addition, the design of the partition plate A123 can realize the simultaneous molding of the first front live block unit 21, the second front live block unit 22 and the third front live block unit 23, and can be demolded smoothly.
[0071] like Figure 8 As shown, the preparation method of the first rear movable block unit 31, the second rear movable block unit 32 and the third rear movable block unit 33 of this embodiment includes:
[0072] 301) Prepare a male mold B13, the male mold B13 comprises two mating bottom plates B131, the outer end surface of each bottom plate B131 is provided with a side plate B132 extending upward, and the bottom plate B131 and the two side plates B132 are surrounded by a molding groove B;
[0073] 302) Three plug-in slots B are provided along the length direction of the bottom plate B131, and the inner wall of the corresponding side plate B132 is provided with a side slot B which is connected with the plug-in slots B;
[0074] 303) Insert the partition plates B133 into each insertion slot B, and insert both side ends of each partition plate B133 into the corresponding side slots B to separate the molding slot B into three unit slots B;
[0075] 304) FRP is laid up by hand in each unit slot B. After solidification, heating wire is laid on the FRP and fixed. Glass fiber cloth, foam and glass fiber cloth are laid. Vacuum infusion process is adopted to form the FRP. The positive mold B is removed to obtain the first rear live block unit 31, the second rear live block unit 32 and the third rear live block unit 33.
[0076] The inner wall of the male mold B13 needs to be processed to obtain the required shape of the rear wheel inter-floor forming part. The bottom width of the male mold B13 is only 450-500mm. If the integral male mold B13 is used, the processing head of the CNC machine tool cannot be inserted to perform profile processing, and it can only be processed manually, with low production efficiency and poor accuracy. The design of the male mold B13 of the present invention is that the male mold B13 includes two matching bottom plates B131, and the outer end surface of each bottom plate B131 is provided with a side plate B132 extending upward.
