[0021] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other. The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0022] like Figure 1 As shown, the present application provides a hydraulic processing system suitable for a thruster grid, including a high-pressure oil source 1, an upper mold 2, a lower mold 3, a locking cylinder 4, a hydraulic lock 5, a mold temperature controller 6 and a heating medium 7, wherein: the upper mold 2 is fixedly installed, the lower mold 3 is arranged directly below the upper mold 2, the grid 15 to be processed is arranged between the upper mold 2 and the lower mold 3, and forms a closed chamber between the lower mold 3; the high-pressure oil source 1 is connected to the closed chamber through a proportional pressure reducing valve 8 and a one-way valve 9; the piston rod of the locking cylinder 4 is connected to the lower mold 3; the hydraulic lock 5 is a bidirectional hydraulic lock 5, connected to the two oil chambers of the locking cylinder 4; the mold temperature controller 6 is connected to the lower mold 3; the heating medium 7 is connected to the mold temperature controller 6 through a pump 10.

[0023] Specifically, the hydraulic processing system suitable for the thruster grid provided in the embodiment of the present application utilizes hydraulic high-pressure technology to achieve the fixed locking and plastic deformation of the grid, and then heats the grid through the heating medium 7, and finally completes the manufacturing and forming of the thruster grid. Among them, the upper mold 2 and the lower mold 3 are mainly used to lock and fix the grid 15 to be processed. The upper mold 2 is a fixed structure. The grid 15 to be processed is arranged between the upper mold 2 and the lower mold 3. There is a certain gap between the lower mold 3 and the grid 15 to be processed, thereby forming a closed chamber; the high-pressure oil source 1 is used to provide high-pressure oil for shaping the grid 15 to be processed, and is connected to the closed chamber through a pipeline. A proportional pressure reducing valve 8 and a one-way valve 9 are arranged on the pipeline to control the output pressure and output volume of the high-pressure oil; the piston rod of the locking cylinder 4 is connected to the lower mold 3, which is used to control the position of the lower mold 3, and is adjusted according to the position where the grid 15 to be processed is placed, so as to achieve fixed locking of the grid 15 to be processed; the hydraulic lock 5 is a bidirectional hydraulic lock 5, which is connected to the two oil chambers of the locking cylinder 4, and the locking position of the locking cylinder 4 is realized by the bidirectional hydraulic lock 5 to ensure that the upper and lower molds can be locked; the heating medium 7 is input into the mold temperature controller 6 through the pump 10, and then input into the lower mold 3 after heating to achieve heating of the mold and the grid.

[0024] Furthermore, an accumulator 11 is provided at the inlet of the proportional pressure reducing valve 8. The accumulator 11 is used for maintaining pressure to ensure that the pressure can be outputted constantly without fluctuation during the processing.

[0025] Furthermore, the sealed chamber is connected with a pressure sensor 12. The pressure sensor 12 is in communication with the sealed chamber and is used to detect the pressure inside the sealed chamber.

[0026] Furthermore, it also includes an oil pressure release valve 13, which is connected to the sealed chamber. The oil pressure release valve 13 is arranged at the bottom of the sealed chamber to release the oil pressure after the gate is formed.

[0027] Furthermore, it also includes a reversing valve 14, which is connected to the hydraulic lock 5. The forward and backward movement of the locking cylinder 4 is controlled by the reversing valve 14 and the hydraulic lock 5, so as to realize the control of the position of the lower mold 3.

[0028] Furthermore, when the gate is processed and formed, the gate 15 to be processed is first fixed and locked between the upper mold 2 and the lower mold 3 by the locking cylinder 4 and the hydraulic lock 5; then the high-pressure oil source 1 outputs high-pressure oil to the closed chamber to shape the gate 15 to be processed; finally, the gate 15 to be processed is heated by the mold temperature controller 6 and the heating medium 7.

[0029] Specifically, the gate processing and molding in the embodiment of the present application mainly includes three processes, namely mold locking, pressure loading shaping and molding heating. When locking the mold, first place the gate 15 to be processed between the upper mold 2 and the lower mold 3, and then control the piston rod of the locking cylinder 4 through the reversing valve 14 and the hydraulic lock 5 to adjust the position of the lower mold 3, so as to achieve the fixed locking of the gate 15 to be processed by the upper mold 2 and the lower mold 3, and form a closed chamber between the lower mold 3 and the gate 15 to be processed; when pressure loading shaping is performed, high-pressure oil is input into the closed chamber through the high-pressure oil source 1, and the input pressure is adjusted through the proportional pressure reducing valve 8 according to the indication of the pressure sensor 12. When the closed chamber is filled with high-pressure oil, the pressure inside the closed chamber is increased. When the pressure reaches the set value, the one-way valve 9 is closed and no high-pressure oil is input. At this time, the plastic deformation of the gate is achieved by the pressure loading of the high-pressure oil. After the molding is completed, the oil pressure is released by the oil pressure release valve 13; when heating the molded part, the heating medium 7 is input into the mold temperature controller 6 through the pump 10 for heating, and then input into the lower mold 3 through the pipeline to heat the lower mold 3, thereby realizing the heating molding of the gate 15 to be processed above the lower mold 3. After the heating is completed, the heating medium 7 can also be recycled into the mold temperature controller 6 for recycling. The use of the embodiment of the present application for gate processing and molding saves materials, improves the yield rate of the gate, and can achieve stable and reliable manufacturing and molding of the gate.

[0030] The above description is only the preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art, the present application may have various modifications and variations. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
