TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of injection mold, in particular to an efficient cooling liquid circulation system for automobile parts mold and a method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] The injection mold is a mold applied to injection molding. At a certain temperature, plastic raw materials are heated to a molten state by using a heating device that can stir, then extruded into a mold, cooled and formed in the mold, and after demolding and subsequent processing, plastic products can be obtained. This process is called injection molding. The injection mold is a mold that assists the shaping of plastic raw materials and is required for cooling and forming.
[0003] The injection mold is generally composed of a concave mold assembly and a convex mold assembly. Higher-precision injection molds also use a stripper plate between the two for assistance. During the injection process, one mold plate is fixed in position, and the other mold plate is set up as a reciprocating structure. In the closed mold state, injection and cooling are completed, and demolding is performed after injection is completed. Cooling structures are provided in each part of the injection mold to fit the core. By injecting water or other cooling liquid inside, rapid cooling and forming are achieved.
[0004] The cooling water path set in the mold is mainly processed by drilling. Due to the difficulty of drilling, the internal water path is generally a straight line path. Currently, there are also molds that can set up a serpentine loop, but such molds generally have the problem of low cooling efficiency. Using a fixed water path for heat dissipation will inevitably result in uneven heat dissipation in each part, and the position far from the water path will be slow to dissipate heat, resulting in a long time for heat dissipation and affecting production efficiency.
[0005] Various molds and tools. In short, a mold is a tool used to make shaped articles. Such a tool is composed of various parts, and different molds are composed of different parts. It mainly realizes the processing of the shape of the article by changing the physical state of the material being formed. However, the cooling system of the existing hot stamping die consumes a lot of electricity and cannot work for a long time if the power is cut off. At the same time, the cooling method is single, the cooling speed is slow, and the cooling effect is not obvious. SUMMARY
