Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of air tightness detection, and in particular to a quick mold changing device dedicated to air tightness detection equipment. Background Art
[0002] Airtightness testing equipment is widely used in the field of testing the sealing performance of products, such as automotive parts, electronic products, medical equipment, and household appliances. This type of equipment uses a specific mold or fixture to test the sealing performance of the object to be tested to ensure that the product has good airtightness during use. However, due to the different shapes, sizes, and sealing requirements of the objects to be tested, the equipment usually needs to have a flexible mold change function to meet the diverse testing needs. Therefore, the mold change device has become an indispensable part of the airtightness testing equipment.
[0003] Some mold changing devices dedicated to air tightness testing equipment use a mold detection slot structure. The mold detection slot is used to place the object to be tested, and is pressed down against the mold through a lifting mechanism to ensure that a seal is formed between the object and the mold. During the test, the air tightness testing mechanism inflates or evacuates air into the detection slot to determine whether there is a leak in the object to be tested. This detection method does not require the air tightness testing mechanism to be inserted into a specific hole in the object to be tested, but instead places it directly in the mold detection slot to complete the seal test. For example, the rubber strips used for car windows, doors or engine covers are tested for their integrity to ensure the isolation performance of water vapor and airflow. Another example is the casing of small devices such as smart watches and Bluetooth headsets, which are ensured to meet the waterproof performance standards through sealing tests.
[0004] Due to the wide variety and size of the items to be tested, if the items are large, they may not fit into the test slot of the mold; and if the items are small, they can fit in, but if the size of the test slot is too large, the required inflation or vacuum time will be extended, and the detection accuracy requirements will increase accordingly. Therefore, in order to ensure the efficiency and accuracy of the detection, the size of the test slot on the mold needs to be changed according to the size of the item to be tested so that it matches the shape and size of the product. In the process of fixing or loosening the mold, the existing mold changing device mostly uses traditional manual operation or simple mechanical mechanism, which requires a long replacement time. This defect will be particularly prominent in a production environment with multiple varieties and small batches, which not only limits the flexibility of the production line, but also significantly increases production costs and operational risks.
[0005] Therefore, it is urgent to propose a quick mold changing device dedicated to airtightness testing equipment to improve the efficiency of mold fixing or loosening in the existing equipment during the testing of multiple specifications of objects to be tested, thereby improving the efficiency of mold replacement.

[0069] Please refer to Figures 1 to 9 The present application proposes a quick mold changing device 10 dedicated to airtightness testing equipment, comprising a mold 100, an airtightness testing mechanism 200, a fixing mechanism 300 and a base 400. The airtightness testing mechanism 200 and the fixing mechanism 300 are arranged on the base 400. The mold 100 is provided with a testing slot 110 for placing an object to be tested. The airtightness testing mechanism 200 is used to seal the testing slot 110 and inflate or exhaust air into the testing slot 110. The fixing mechanism 300 comprises a support seat 310, two propulsion assemblies 320 and two fixing assemblies 330. The support seat 310 is movably arranged on the base 400, and the mold 100 is placed on the support seat 310; the two propulsion assemblies 320 are respectively arranged on both sides of the bottom of the support seat 310, which can drive the support seat 310 to move upward; the two fixing assemblies 330 are respectively arranged on both sides of the top edge of the support seat 310, which can fix the mold 100 on the support seat 310.
[0070] When the propulsion assembly 320 drives the support seat 310 to move upward, the propulsion assembly 320 simultaneously drives the fixing assembly 330 to move away from the mold 100 to release the mold 100;
[0071] When the propulsion assembly 320 moves in a direction away from the support base 310 , the support base 310 moves downward by its own gravity, and the propulsion assembly 320 drives the fixing assembly 330 to fix the mold 100 at the same time.
[0072] Specifically, the support seat 310 is movably arranged on the base 400, and is used to place the mold 100 and realize the fixing and loosening of the mold 100 through its lifting and lowering. The support seat 310 can move up and down so that the mold 100 can remain stable during the detection process and quickly detach when replaced. Two propulsion components 320 are respectively arranged on both sides of the bottom of the support seat 310, and can drive the support seat 310 to move upward. Through the symmetrical arrangement of the two propulsion components 320, the smooth lifting and lowering of the support seat 310 is achieved, and the tilting or instability of the mold 100 during the movement is avoided. The two fixing components 330 are respectively arranged on both sides of the top edge of the support seat 310, and the mold 100 on the support seat 310 can be fixed. The two fixing components 330 are respectively arranged on both sides of the top edge of the support seat 310, and the mold 100 on the support seat 310 can be fixed. The two fixing components 330 cooperate with the mold 100 to achieve the fixing and loosening of the mold 100. The arrangement of the fixing assembly 330 ensures that the mold 100 can be firmly clamped on the support seat 310 and can be quickly released when it needs to be replaced. The symmetrical arrangement of the two propulsion assemblies 320 and the two fixing assemblies 330 achieves the stability of the support seat 310 during the lifting process, avoiding the shaking or jamming caused by uneven force on one side. This structural design further improves the accuracy of positioning and detection of the mold 100. When the propulsion assembly 320 drives the support seat 310 to move upward, the fixing assembly 330 simultaneously moves away from the mold 100 to release the mold 100, so that the operator or equipment can quickly replace the mold 100; when the propulsion assembly 320 moves away from the support seat 310, the support seat 310 sinks by its own gravity, and at the same time drives the fixing assembly 330 to re-clamp the mold 100, and the mold 100 is firmly fixed on the support seat 310. Thus, the mold 100 is loosened when it is raised and fixed when it is lowered. This automated operation effectively reduces the risk of human error and improves the efficiency and safety of replacing the mold 100.
[0073] It is worth noting that the support base 310 sinks by its own gravity without the need for additional power drive, which simplifies the system structure and reduces costs and energy consumption.
[0074] It should be understood that the mold changing devices in traditional air tightness testing equipment mostly rely on manual operation or simple mechanical mechanisms to complete the fixing and loosening of the mold 100. This operation is not only time-consuming, but also requires a high degree of manual participation, which increases the complexity of the operation. In a multi-variety, small-batch production environment, such defects are particularly obvious. Frequent mold changes will cause the production line to be down for too long, affecting the overall production efficiency. In the present application, the fixing mechanism 300 cooperates with the electric propulsion component 320 and the fixing component 330, so that the operator or equipment can quickly fix or replace the mold 100, realize the automatic replacement of the mold 100, shorten the mold change time, and reduce the work intensity of the operator. The problem of low efficiency of fixing or loosening the mold 100 in the existing mold changing device during the detection of multi-specification items to be tested is solved, thereby improving the efficiency of replacing the mold 100.
[0075] It should be noted that for objects to be tested of different sizes and shapes, the rapid replacement of the mold 100 is the key to ensuring the detection efficiency. In the present application, the rapid mold change device can not only adapt to molds 100 of different specifications, that is, detection slots 110 of different sizes and shapes on the mold 100, but also quickly switch the mold 100 between different detection requirements, greatly improving the flexibility of the production line. This design is particularly suitable for use in automotive parts, electronic products, medical equipment and other fields, meeting the needs of these industries for efficient airtightness detection.
[0076] Please refer to Figures 6 to 9 In one embodiment, each propulsion assembly 320 includes a motor 321, a first screw rod 322, and a propulsion block 323. The motor 321 is arranged on the base 400; the axial direction of the first screw rod 322 is connected to the rotating shaft of the motor 321; the propulsion block 323 is threadedly connected to the first screw rod 322, and the propulsion block 323 is slidably connected to the base 400. A first inclined surface 3231 is provided on the side of the propulsion block 323 close to the support seat 310; a second inclined surface 311 adapted to the first inclined surface 3231 is provided on the side of the bottom of the support seat 310 close to the propulsion block 323, and the first inclined surface 3231 is in contact with and parallel to the second inclined surface 311. When the motor 321 drives the first screw rod 322 to rotate forward, the first screw rod 322 drives the propulsion block 323 to move toward the support seat 310, and the first inclined surface 3231 squeezes the second inclined surface 311 in the horizontal direction, so that the support seat 310 moves upward and drives the fixing assembly 330 to release the mold 100; when the motor 321 drives the first screw rod 322 to rotate reversely, the first screw rod 322 drives the propulsion block 323 to move away from the support seat 310, and the support seat 310 moves downward by its own gravity, and the fixing assembly 330 simultaneously fixes the mold 100, thereby fixing the mold 100 on the support seat 310.
[0077] Specifically, the first inclined surface 3231 of the propulsion block 323 contacts the second inclined surface 311 of the support seat 310. When the motor 321 drives the first screw rod 322 to rotate in the forward direction, the first screw rod 322 drives the propulsion block 323 to move along the axial direction of the first screw rod 322 toward the support seat 310. In this process, the first inclined surface 3231 of the propulsion block 323 squeezes the second inclined surface 311 at the bottom of the support seat 310 in the horizontal direction, pushing the support seat 310 to move upward. While the support seat 310 rises, it drives the fixing assembly 330 to move away from the mold 100, thereby loosening the mold 100 and facilitating the replacement of the mold 100. When the motor 321 drives the first screw rod 322 in the reverse direction, the first screw rod 322 drives the propulsion block 323 to move away from the support seat 310. As the pushing block 323 moves away, the support seat 310 loses support and naturally sinks under its own gravity, driving the fixing assembly 330 to clamp the mold 100 , thereby firmly fixing the mold 100 on the support seat 310 .
[0078] Please refer to Figures 6 to 9 In one embodiment, each fixing assembly 330 includes a second screw rod 331, a sliding block 332, a clamping block 334 and a connecting rod 333. The second screw rod 331 is transmission-connected to the first screw rod 322, and the second screw rod 331 and the first screw rod 322 are arranged along the same axial direction; the sliding block 332 is threadedly connected to the second screw rod 331, and the sliding block 332 is slidingly connected to the base 400; the clamping block 334 is rotatably connected to the base 400; one end of the connecting rod 333 is rotatably connected to the sliding block 332, and the other end is rotatably connected to the clamping block 334. When the first screw rod 322 drives the second screw rod 331 to rotate synchronously in the forward direction, the second screw rod 331 drives the sliding block 332 to move toward the mold 100, so that the sliding block 332 pushes the connecting rod 333 forward, so that the clamping block 334 rotates relative to the base 400, and the clamping block 334 rotates in a direction away from the mold 100, thereby loosening the mold 100; when the first screw rod 322 drives the second screw rod 331 to rotate synchronously in the reverse direction, the sliding block 332 moves in a direction away from the mold 100, so that the connecting rod 333 drives the clamping block 334 to rotate relative to the base 400, and the clamping block 334 rotates toward the mold 100, so that the clamping block 334 clamps the mold 100, thereby fixing the mold 100 on the support seat 310.
[0079] Specifically, when the motor 321 drives the first screw rod 322 to rotate forward, the first screw rod 322 drives the second screw rod 331 to rotate forward synchronously through the transmission mechanism. As the second screw rod 331 rotates, the sliding block 332 moves along the second screw rod 331 toward the mold 100. The forward movement of the sliding block 332 pushes the connecting rod 333 to move toward the mold 100, and at the same time drives the clamping block 334 to rotate in a direction away from the mold 100, thereby loosening the mold 100, so that the mold 100 can be easily taken out or replaced.
[0080] When the motor 321 drives the first screw rod 322 to rotate in the opposite direction, the first screw rod 322 drives the second screw rod 331 to rotate in the opposite direction synchronously through the transmission mechanism, and the sliding block 332 moves along the second screw rod 331 in a direction away from the mold 100. The movement of the sliding block 332 pulls the connecting rod 333 to move in the opposite direction, so that the clamping block 334 rotates and clamps the mold 100 in the direction of the mold 100, ensuring that the mold 100 is fixed firmly, thereby firmly fixing the mold 100 on the support seat 310.
[0081] Please refer to Figure 6 In one embodiment, each fixing assembly 330 includes a synchronous belt 335, the first screw rod 322 and the second screw rod 331 are both rotatably connected to the base 400, the first screw rod 322 and the second screw rod 331 are both provided with teeth, and the synchronous belt 335 surrounds the teeth of the first screw rod 322 and the teeth of the second screw rod 331; when the first screw rod 322 rotates, the first screw rod 322 drives the second screw rod 331 to maintain synchronous rotation through the synchronous belt 335.
[0082] Specifically, when the motor 321 drives the first screw rod 322 to rotate forward, the teeth of the first screw rod 322 mesh with the synchronous belt 335, driving the synchronous belt 335 to rotate in the corresponding direction, and the synchronous belt 335 keeps the second screw rod 331 in synchronous forward rotation through transmission. In this process, the second screw rod 331 drives the sliding block 332 to move toward the mold 100, and pushes the connecting rod 333 and the clamping block 334 away from the mold 100, loosening the mold 100 for replacement operation. When the motor 321 drives the first screw rod 322 to rotate in the opposite direction, the synchronous belt 335 will also drive the second screw rod 331 to rotate in the opposite direction synchronously. At this time, the sliding block 332 moves in the direction away from the mold 100, and pulls the connecting rod 333 and the clamping block 334 to clamp the mold 100, and firmly fixes the mold 100 on the support seat 310 to ensure stability during the detection process.
[0083] Please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7In one embodiment, each propulsion assembly 320 includes a plurality of sliding wheels 324, which are rotatably connected to the first inclined surface 3231, and can roll along the extension direction of the first screw rod 322. When the first inclined surface 3231 presses the second inclined surface 311 in the horizontal direction, each sliding wheel 324 rolls on the first inclined surface 3231, so that the second inclined surface 311 pushes the support seat 310 to move upward; when the first inclined surface 3231 moves away from the second inclined surface 311 in the horizontal direction, each sliding wheel 324 rolls in the opposite direction of the first inclined surface 3231, so that the support seat 310 moves downward under the action of gravity.
[0084] Specifically, the introduction of the sliding wheel 324 greatly reduces the friction between the first inclined surface 3231 and the second inclined surface 311, making the support seat 310 more stable and smooth during the lifting process. When the motor 321 drives the first screw rod 322 to rotate in the forward direction, the first screw rod 322 drives the propulsion block 323 to move toward the support seat 310. As the propulsion block 323 moves, the first inclined surface 3231 squeezes the second inclined surface 311 in the horizontal direction. At this time, multiple sliding wheels 324 roll synchronously on the first inclined surface 3231 to reduce the friction between the inclined surfaces. The rolling action of the sliding wheel 324 enables the support seat 310 to move upward smoothly, while driving the fixing assembly 330 to move away from the mold 100, loosening the mold 100, and facilitating the replacement of the mold 100.
[0085] When the motor 321 drives the first screw rod 322 to rotate in the reverse direction, the first screw rod 322 drives the push block 323 to move away from the support base 310. As the push block 323 moves away, the first inclined surface 3231 separates from the second inclined surface 311, and the plurality of sliding wheels 324 roll in the opposite direction of the first inclined surface 3231, so that the support base 310 naturally sinks under the action of gravity. While the support base 310 sinks, the fixing assembly 330 clamps the mold 100 and firmly fixes the mold 100 on the support base 310.
[0086] Please refer to Figures 6 to 8 In one embodiment, a clamping portion 3341 is provided at one end of the clamping block 334 away from the connecting rod 333, and a clamping slot 120 is provided at the top of the mold 100 near its edge. When the clamping block 334 rotates toward the mold 100, the clamping portion 3341 engages with the clamping slot 120, thereby firmly fixing the mold 100 on the support seat 310; when the clamping block 334 rotates in a direction away from the mold 100, the clamping portion 3341 disengages from the clamping slot 120, so that the mold 100 is released, so that the mold 100 can be quickly replaced.
[0087] Specifically, when the motor 321 drives the second screw rod 331 to rotate, the sliding block 332 and the connecting rod 333 are pushed to move, so that the clamping block 334 rotates toward the mold 100. As the clamping block 334 rotates, the clamping portion 3341 thereon is embedded in the clamping slot 120 of the mold 100. The interlocking structure of the clamping portion 3341 and the clamping slot 120 ensures that the mold 100 is firmly fixed on the support seat 310, thereby preventing the mold 100 from loosening or shifting during the detection process.
[0088] When the motor 321 drives the second screw rod 331 to rotate in the reverse direction, the sliding block 332 moves in the opposite direction, driving the connecting rod 333 to rotate the clamping block 334 away from the mold 100. At this time, the clamping portion 3341 is disengaged from the clamping slot 120, and the clamping between the mold 100 and the support seat 310 is released, which facilitates the rapid replacement of the mold 100.
[0089] Please refer to Figure 8 In one embodiment, an avoidance groove 3342 is formed at one end of the clamping block 334 close to the connecting rod 333 to prevent interference between the clamping block 334 and the connecting rod 333 during the rotation process.
[0090] Specifically, when the motor 321 drives the first screw rod 322 to rotate in the forward direction, the sliding block 332 drives the connecting rod 333 to move toward the mold 100, and pushes the clamping block 334 to rotate in the direction away from the mold 100. In this process, the connecting rod 333 partially enters the avoidance groove 3342 on the clamping block 334, avoiding direct contact and interference between the connecting rod 333 and the clamping block 334, and ensuring the smooth rotation of the clamping block 334.
[0091] Please refer to Figure 8 In one embodiment, the clamping block 334 is provided with a first abutting surface 3343 at the position of the avoidance groove 3342, and the connecting rod 333 is provided with a second abutting surface 3331; when the sliding block 332 pushes the connecting rod 333 forward, the clamping block 334 rotates in a direction away from the mold 100, so that the first abutting surface 3343 is in contact with the second abutting surface 3331.
[0092] Specifically, when the motor 321 drives the second screw rod 331 to rotate in the forward direction, the sliding block 332 pushes the connecting rod 333 to move forward, so that the clamping block 334 rotates in a direction away from the mold 100. In this process, the second abutting surface 3331 of the connecting rod 333 fits with the first abutting surface 3343 of the clamping block 334, ensuring the position accuracy and movement stability of the clamping block 334 during the rotation process, and avoiding deviation or shaking.
[0093] Please refer to Figures 4 to 6In one embodiment, a positioning groove 312 is provided at the bottom of the support seat 310, and a positioning portion 410 is provided on the base 400, and the positioning portion 410 extends into the positioning groove 312 to limit and guide the position of the support seat 310; support portions 313 for supporting the mold 100 are provided on both sides of the support seat 310, and a plurality of air holes 314 are provided in the vertical direction of the support seat 310; when the mold 100 is placed on the support seat 310, there is a gap between the mold 100 and the opening of each air hole 314 facing the mold 100, so as to reduce air resistance and improve the efficiency of movement when the support seat 310 moves upward or downward.
[0094] Specifically, when the support seat 310 moves up and down, the positioning portion 410 on the base 400 extends into the positioning groove 312 of the support seat 310 to limit and guide the position of the support seat 310. This design ensures the stability of the support seat 310 during the lifting process and avoids inaccurate installation or detection errors of the mold 100 caused by offset. Support portions 313 are provided on both sides of the support seat 310 to support the mold 100. More importantly, the support portions 313 are used to create a gap between the orifice of the air vent 314 and the mold 100, so that when the support seat 310 moves up or down, air can be discharged or entered smoothly through these air vents 314. The presence of the air vent 314 prevents the air from forming resistance between the support seat 310 and the mold 100, thereby improving the movement efficiency of the support seat 310.
[0095] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 5 In one embodiment, the airtightness detection mechanism 200 includes a lifting mechanism 210, a pressing plate 220 and an airtightness detection head 230. The lifting mechanism 210 is arranged on the base 400; the pressing plate 220 is arranged on the lifting mechanism 210, and a pneumatic hole 221 is opened on the pressing plate 220; the airtightness detection head 230 is arranged in the pneumatic hole 221, and the opening of the pneumatic hole 221 toward the airtightness detection head 230 is sealed. When the lifting frame drives the pressing plate 220 to press the mold 100 downward, the pressing plate 220 fits the mold 100, and the pneumatic hole 221 is connected to the detection slot 110. The airtightness detection head 230 inflates or exhausts air into the detection slot 110 through the pneumatic hole 221 to detect the airtightness of the object to be tested; when the lifting frame drives the pressing plate 220 to move upward, the pressing plate 220 is separated from the mold 100, and the pneumatic hole 221 is disconnected from the detection slot 110.
[0096] Specifically, when the lifting mechanism 210 drives the pressing plate 220 to move downward, the pressing plate 220 is closely fitted with the mold 100, ensuring that the pneumatic hole 221 on the pressing plate 220 is connected with the detection slot 110 of the mold 100. At this time, the airtightness detection head 230 can inflate or exhaust air into the detection slot 110 through the pneumatic hole 221 to determine whether there is leakage in the object to be detected.
[0097] When the detection is completed, the lifting mechanism 210 drives the pressing plate 220 to move upward, so that the pressing plate 220 is separated from the mold 100. As the pressing plate 220 moves upward, the communication state between the pneumatic hole 221 and the detection groove 110 is disconnected, and a detection process is completed.
[0098] Please refer to Figures 1 to 9 , the specific implementation process of this application:
[0099] Step 1: Initialize the quick mold changing device 10 dedicated to the air tightness testing equipment of the present application. The motor 321 is controlled by the control device to run, the motor 321 drives the first screw rod 322 to rotate forward, the first screw rod 322 drives the push block 323 to move toward the direction of the support seat 310, the first inclined surface 3231 squeezes the second inclined surface 311 in the horizontal direction, and multiple sliding wheels 324 roll synchronously on the first inclined surface 3231 of the push block 323 to reduce friction, so that the support seat 310 moves upward, and at the same time, the first screw rod 322 drives the second screw rod 331 to rotate forward synchronously, and the second screw rod 331 drives the sliding block 332 to move toward the direction of the mold 100, so that the sliding block 332 pushes the connecting rod 333 forward, so that the clamping block 334 rotates relative to the base 400, and the clamping block 334 rotates in the direction away from the mold 100 on the support seat 310, and the mold 100 on the support seat 310 can be installed or replaced.
[0100] Step 2: Install the mold 100 . Place the mold 100 on the support portion 313 , and put the object to be tested into the testing slot 110 of the mold 100 .
[0101] Step 3: Fix the mold 100. The motor 321 drives the first screw rod 322 to rotate in the opposite direction, and the first screw rod 322 drives the propulsion block 323 to move away from the support seat 310. The support seat 310 moves downward by its own gravity, and the fixing assembly 330 fixes the mold 100 synchronously, thereby fixing the mold 100 on the support seat 310; at the same time, the first screw rod 322 drives the second screw rod 331 to rotate in the opposite direction synchronously, and the sliding block 332 moves away from the mold 100, so that the connecting rod 333 drives the clamping block 334 to rotate relative to the base 400, and the clamping block 334 rotates toward the direction of the mold 100, so that the clamping block 334 clamps the mold 100, that is, the clamping portion 3341 of the clamping block 334 is embedded in the clamping slot 120 of the mold 100, and the clamping portion 3341 of the clamping block 334 is closely matched with the clamping slot 120 of the mold 100, ensuring that the mold 100 is firmly fixed on the support seat 310 to avoid displacement or loosening during the detection process. Thereby, the mold 100 is fixed on the supporting seat 310 .
[0102] Step 4: Inspect the article to be tested in the inspection slot 110 of the mold 100. The lifting mechanism 210 is started to control the pressing plate 220 to press down. The lifting mechanism 210 drives the pressing plate 220 to start moving downward, contacting and tightly fitting with the surface of the mold 100. The pneumatic hole 221 on the pressing plate 220 is connected to the inspection slot 110 of the mold 100, providing a closed space for the operation of the airtightness detection head 230. The airtightness detection head 230 inflates or exhausts air into the inspection slot 110 through the pneumatic hole 221 to detect whether there is any leakage in the article to be tested. The system determines whether the airtightness meets the standard based on the preset detection parameters (such as air pressure and vacuum degree). The pressing plate 220 rises and the detection is completed:
[0103] Step 5: Detection completed After the detection is completed, the lifting mechanism 210 drives the pressing plate 220 to move upward, disconnecting the pneumatic hole 221 from the detection slot 110 .
