Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of metallurgical forming mold technology, specifically to an automated and efficient gear powder metallurgy forming mold. Background Technology
[0002] Powder metallurgy gears are powder metallurgy parts commonly used in mechanical manufacturing. Through one-time forming and finishing processes, they can fully meet the dimensional accuracy requirements. By stamping the gears in automobiles, the accuracy of the tooth profile can be improved, thus facilitating the compression molding of high-quality automotive gears.
[0003] However, existing metallurgical forming molds are inconvenient to remove during use, have low production efficiency, and may be damaged if removed improperly.
[0004] To address the aforementioned deficiencies, Chinese Patent Publication No. CN213080061U discloses a molding die for powder metallurgy gears, comprising an upper fixing block and a lower fixing block. The upper fixing block has a groove on its upper edge and a rectangular groove A in the middle of its upper surface. An upper mold is engaged inside the rectangular groove A. An upper gear groove is located in the middle of the upper surface of the upper mold, and a shaft core mold tube is fixedly installed in the middle of the upper gear groove. A rounded rectangular rod is fixedly installed inside the shaft core mold tube. A retaining strip is fixedly installed on the edge of the upper surface of the lower fixing block, and a rectangular groove B is located in the middle of its upper surface. A spring extrusion chamber is located in the middle of the rectangular groove B. Through the spring and a movable ring, the gear extruded inside the lower gear groove can automatically pop upwards, greatly improving demolding efficiency and reducing wear during demolding.
[0005] Furthermore, in the prior art, Chinese patent publication number CN218192558U discloses a powder metallurgy gear forming mold, including a tray and a base. The base is provided with a square groove, and a water supply pipe is installed at the bottom of the inner wall of the square groove. The lower surface of the tray is provided with a water pipe groove. The tray is connected to the water supply pipe at the bottom of the inner wall of the square groove through the water pipe groove on the lower surface. The mold body is installed at the bottom of the inner wall of the tray, and a gear groove is provided on the mold body. Limiting holes are provided on both the tray and the base. Spring cylinders are installed on both sides of the outer wall of the base. A tension spring is installed inside the spring cylinder. A foolproof button is installed at one end of the tension spring, and a pressure plate is installed at the other end of the tension spring. The limiting post is connected to the limiting holes on the base and the tray through a gap. Through a series of structural settings, the cooling speed of gear forming can be accelerated, the working efficiency of gear forming can be improved, and the practicality is strong.
[0006] The aforementioned device utilizes springs and movable rings to facilitate the ejection of the squeeze gears during use, thereby reducing wear. However, when the metal powder is placed in the mold cavity, it is in a loose state. When subjected to pressure, some of the metal powder will overflow or splash out from the gap between the upper die and the mold cavity in order to expel the air between the particles, thus affecting the molding of the equipment. Therefore, in actual use, powder splashing may occur, resulting in molding damage. Summary of the Invention
