Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a mould and a method for manufacturing a product using the mould, in particular to a mould for a flame retardant conical spring and a method for manufacturing the flame retardant conical spring using the mould, belonging to the technical field of flame retardant conical spring production. Background Art

[0002] Flame retardant conical springs are components that can resist the spread of flames to a certain extent while maintaining their spring function. They are mainly used in situations where fire safety protection is required. Flame retardant conical springs are conical in shape and consist of a conical shell and several conical discs inside. The shape and number of these discs affect the stiffness and working characteristics of the spring. Compared with traditional conical springs, the key to flame retardant conical springs lies in the choice of materials, that is, the use of materials with flame retardant properties.

[0003] like Figure 1 As shown, the flame retardant conical spring is in a cone shape, and includes an outer sleeve 1, a core shaft 2, and a multi-layer spacer 3 disposed between the outer sleeve 1 and the core shaft 2. The outer sleeve 1, the core shaft 2, and the spacer 3 are made of metal parts, and the outer sleeve 1, the core shaft 2, and the multi-layer spacer 3 are vulcanized and bonded together through multiple rubber layers 4. Each rubber layer 4 is composed of two types of rubber, including a conventional rubber 411 located near the large end of the flame retardant conical spring and a fireproof rubber 412 located near the small end of the flame retardant conical spring.

[0004] The Chinese invention patent application with application publication number CN118181642A and application publication date June 14, 2024 discloses a method for forming a flame retardant conical spring, comprising the following steps: S1: preforming an unvulcanized fireproof adhesive layer; S2: bonding the preformed fireproof adhesive layer between adjacent iron parts; S3: preheating the iron parts bonded with the fireproof adhesive layer and placing them into the mold, injecting conventional rubber between the iron parts by high-pressure injection and maintaining the pressure, and forming a conventional adhesive layer on the fireproof adhesive layer; S4: using a conventional rubber vulcanization process to vulcanize the fireproof adhesive layer and the conventional adhesive layer as a whole, and demolding after vulcanization to obtain a flame retardant conical spring.

[0005] It can be seen from the patent document that since the rubber layer of the flame-retardant conical spring includes two types of rubber, conventional rubber and fireproof rubber, in the molding method, it is necessary to first use a mold to preform the fireproof rubber layer, and then preheat the iron parts bonded with the fireproof rubber layer and put them into another mold, and use high-pressure injection to inject conventional rubber between the iron parts to form the conventional rubber layer. Therefore, two sets of molds are required to manufacture the rubber layer of the flame-retardant conical spring, which results in a long manufacturing time for the product, reduces manufacturing efficiency and increases manufacturing costs.

[0006] In summary, how to design a mold for a flame retardant conical spring and a method for manufacturing a flame retardant conical spring using the mold so that the rubber layer of the flame retardant conical spring can be manufactured using the same set of molds, shortening product manufacturing time, improving manufacturing efficiency and reducing manufacturing costs are technical problems that need to be solved urgently.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] The technical solution of the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0021] Example: Figures 2 to 5 As shown, a method for manufacturing a flame retardant conical spring is provided, wherein the mold is designed to include a bottom mold 5, a bottom insert 6, a middle mold 7, an upper insert 8, an upper insert 9 which can replace the upper insert 8, a fixing plate 10, and a plurality of inner inserts 11. During manufacturing, the lower insert 6 is first placed on the bottom mold 5, and then the outer sleeve 1, the core shaft 2, and the multi-layer spacer 3 of the flame retardant conical spring are all placed on the lower insert 6, and then the middle mold 7 is placed on the lower insert 6 so that the middle mold 7 is located at the outer peripheral surface of the outer sleeve 1 of the flame retardant conical spring, and then the upper insert 8 is placed on the inner sleeve 3. On the middle mold 7, the upper insert 8 is used to press the multiple inner inserts 11 into contact with the top of the multi-layer spacer 3 of the flame retardant conical spring, and finally the fixed plate 10 is placed on the upper insert 8 to complete the first mold closing; when the first mold closing is completed, the lower insert 6, the outer sleeve 1 of the flame retardant conical spring, the core shaft 2 and the multi-layer spacer 3, and the upper insert 8 and the multiple inner inserts 11 are surrounded to form a multi-layer conventional rubber molding space A. At this time, conventional rubber is injected into the multi-layer conventional rubber molding space A through the glue injection channel 12 set on the fixed plate 10 and the upper insert 8. Then the mold is opened for the first time, and after the fixed plate 10, the upper insert 8 and the inner insert 11 are removed, the upper insert 9 is placed on the middle mold 7, and the fixed plate 10 is placed on the upper insert 9 to complete the second mold closing. When the second mold closing is completed, the conventional rubber 411, the outer sleeve 1 of the flame retardant conical spring, the core shaft 2 and the multi-layer spacer 3 and the upper insert 9 are enclosed to form a multi-layer fireproof rubber molding space B. At this time, the fireproof rubber 412 is injected into the multi-layer fireproof rubber molding space B through the glue injection channel 12 set on the fixed plate 10 and the upper insert 9. Finally, the conventional rubber and the fireproof rubber are vulcanized. After the vulcanization is completed, the mold is opened again to complete the manufacture of the flame retardant conical spring. In this embodiment, a conventional rubber molding space A is formed by using relevant mold parts during the first mold closing process, and in the second mold closing process, only the inner insert is removed and replaced with the upper insert 2 to form the fire-proof rubber molding space B, thereby using the same set of molds to complete the manufacture of the rubber layer of the flame-retardant conical spring composed of two rubber layers, shortening the product manufacturing time, improving the manufacturing efficiency, and using the same set of molds to manufacture the rubber layer of the flame-retardant conical spring, reducing the manufacturing cost.

[0022] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the inner insert 11 is annular, and a notch 111 is provided on the inner circumference of the annular inner insert 11. The top of the spacer 3 of the conical spring is obliquely inserted into the notch 111, so that the inner insert 11 is pressed and contacted on the top of the spacer 3. The inner insert 11 is a multi-petal split structure, and in this embodiment, it is set to three petals. This is because the top of the spacer 3 is obliquely inserted into the inner circumference of the annular inner insert 11, so when the inner insert 11 needs to be taken out during the first mold opening, the inner insert 11 is blocked by the spacer 3 and cannot be taken out vertically upward like the fixed plate 10 and the upper insert 8. Therefore, in this embodiment, the annular inner insert 11 is designed as a multi-petal split structure. When it needs to be taken out, the annular inner insert 11 with a multi-petal split structure can be taken out along the radial direction, ensuring the normal progress of the manufacturing work.

[0023] The bottom surface of the inner insert 11 and the bottom surface of the upper insert 8 enclosed at the upper position of the conventional rubber molding space A are both set to a horizontal plane 13, so that after the conventional rubber 411 is injected into the conventional rubber molding space A, the top surface of the conventional rubber 411 tends to be horizontal, which can improve the quality of the subsequent vulcanization process. The outlet end 121 of the injection channel 12 of the upper insert 8 is set on the horizontal bottom surface of the upper insert 8 enclosed at the upper position of the conventional rubber molding space A, and the outlet end 121 of the injection channel 12 of the upper insert 8 is connected to the conventional rubber molding space A, so that the conventional rubber can be injected into the conventional rubber molding space A by using the injection channel 12.

[0024] like Figure 8 As shown, the bottom surface of the upper insert 9 enclosed above the fireproof rubber molding space B is provided with a fireproof rubber molding surface 911, and the outlet end 121 of the glue injection channel 12 of the upper insert 9 is provided on the fireproof rubber molding surface 911, and the outlet end 121 of the glue injection channel 12 of the upper insert 9 is connected with the fireproof rubber molding space B, so that the fireproof rubber can be injected into the fireproof rubber molding space B by using the glue injection channel 12. Through the shape design of the fireproof rubber molding surface 911, the molding surface of the fireproof rubber can be designed according to the actual working conditions, thereby improving the practicality of this embodiment.

[0025] Since the outlet end 121 of the glue injection channel 12 of the upper insert block 29 is facing the horizontal top surface of the conventional rubber 411, if the impact force when injecting the fire-proof rubber is not reduced at this time, it will cause impact damage to the horizontal top surface of the conventional rubber 411, thereby affecting the quality of the product. Therefore, in this embodiment, the outlet end 121 of the glue injection channel 12 of the upper insert block 29 and the glue injection channel 12 itself are staggered, so that the fire-proof rubber flowing through the glue injection channel 12 will not directly impact into the fire-proof rubber molding space B. The staggered structure is used to buffer the impact force when the fire-proof rubber is injected, so as to reduce the impact force when the glue injection channel 12 of the upper insert block 29 injects the fire-proof rubber into the fire-proof rubber molding space B, thereby ensuring that the interface between the conventional rubber and the fire-proof rubber is close to a straight line state, thereby improving the quality of the product.

[0026] In summary, the present invention forms a conventional rubber molding space A by using relevant mold parts during the first mold closing process, and forms a fireproof rubber molding space B by only removing the inner insert and replacing the upper insert block 2 during the second mold closing process, thereby using the same set of molds to complete the manufacture of the rubber layer of the flame-retardant conical spring composed of two rubber layers, shortening the product manufacturing time, improving the manufacturing efficiency, and using the same set of molds to manufacture the rubber layer of the flame-retardant conical spring, reducing the manufacturing cost. The annular inner insert is designed to be a multi-petal split structure. When it needs to be taken out, the annular inner insert of the multi-petal split structure can be taken out radially, ensuring the normal progress of the manufacturing work. The outlet end of the glue injection channel of the upper insert block 2 is designed to be staggered with the glue injection channel itself, and the staggered structure is used to buffer the impact force when the fireproof rubber is injected, so as to reduce the impact force when the glue injection channel of the upper insert block 2 injects the fireproof rubber into the fireproof rubber molding space B, ensuring that the interface between the conventional rubber and the fireproof rubber is close to a straight line state, and improving the quality of the product.

[0027] The "multiple" mentioned in the embodiments refers to the number of "two or more". The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention, not to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the relevant technical field can make various changes or modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent technical solutions should also belong to the protection scope of the present invention, and the protection scope of the present invention should be defined by the claims.
