[0002] The die-casting system and the injection molding system include die-casting molds and die-casting machines, injection molds and injection molding machines, and their structural features are that the fixed and movable molds are respectively installed on the head plate and the second plate, and the mold mounting surfaces of the two plates are parallel to the two mounting planes of the mold. Its working process is mold closing - mold preheating - material heating - injection into mold - mold cooling - mold opening - workpiece ejection. This process is repeated, and the mold and the head plate and the second plate of the mold installation of the die-casting injection molding machine are repeatedly heated and cooled. In this process, due to uneven temperature, the parallelism between the third plate and the second plate in the three-plate machine will change, and the parallelism between the two mounting surfaces of the mold and the mold mounting surfaces of the head plate and the second plate will also change, resulting in lax mold closing, causing flash and thickness size deviations of the pressed parts, and severe problems such as water splashing. For example, "2017208826589" A die-casting mold that prevents water splashing introduces a die-casting mold that prevents water splashing, but this method can only solve the problem of preventing damage, and cannot solve the problems of part quality caused by water splashing, such as flash, size, thickness changes, etc. Summary of the invention

The effect achieved is to lock the mold based on the contact surface fit of the fixed and movable molds and the positioning pins between the fixed and movable molds, thereby eliminating water flying, reducing flash, and improving product quality.

There is a swing locking assembly between the second plate 4 and the third plate 9. The spherical swing part is composed of a concave spherical swing plate 6 and a convex spherical swing plate 5. The locking part is composed of an active wedge 7 and a passive wedge 71, which are placed on the component bracket swing locking mechanism bracket 13. The wedge moving cylinder 14 is installed above the swing locking mechanism bracket 13 to push the active wedge 7 up and down to achieve the purpose of locking or unlocking the mold, and the swing locking mechanism bracket 13 plays the role of the passive wedge support plate 72.

The swing locking assembly is installed on the swing locking assembly moving guide rail 15. The swing locking assembly moving cylinder 16 can send the clamping mechanism 8 to the space between the second plate 4 and the third plate 9 for clamping. It can also pull the clamping mechanism 8 out of the space between the second plate 4 and the third plate 9, so that the second plate 4 and the movable mold 3 can retreat along the fixed guide rail 12 under the drive of the movable guide rail 11, so that the movable mold 3 and the fixed mold 2 are separated, and the formed space is used for demolding of parts. Fig.10 The second plate 4 and the movable mold 3 are separated from the fixed mold 2 to form a part ejection space. Fig.11 for Fig.10 A top view of Fig.12 This is a top view of the mold after the part is demoulded and re-closed, when the swing locking assembly has not yet entered between the second plate 4 and the third plate 9. This embodiment can adapt to the situation where the parallelism error between the third plate and the second plate is caused by thermal deformation.
