[0032] Referring toFigure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 The cleaning and cutting component 7 also includes a fixing frame 701. An electric telescopic rod 702 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the fixing frame 701. A limit frame 703 is provided at the front end of the electric telescopic rod 702. A circular hole is opened on the side of the limit frame 703 near the electric telescopic rod 702, and the electric telescopic rod 702 is movably connected within the circular hole.

A connecting frame 706 is fixedly connected to the top end of the sliding member 705, and a connecting member 7 is fixedly connected to the front end of the connecting frame 706. 07. A telescopic electric rod 708 is provided on the connector 707. A base frame 709 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the telescopic electric rod 708. The base frame 709 is located below the connector 707. The bottom end of the base frame 709 is fixedly connected to the top end of the arc-shaped cutter 710.

[0033] Specifically, before the carbon fiber material is extruded, the electric telescopic rod 702 extends forward and, due to its movable connection with the circular hole of the limit frame 703, drives the sliding part 705 to slide along the connecting rod 704, thereby causing the connecting frame 706 and the connecting part 707 to move forward. At the same time, the air pump 715 supplies air to the air inlet 713 through the air supply pipe 714, filling the arc-shaped air box 711 with air.

After the cutting is completed, the telescopic electric rod 708 retracts, and the arc-shaped cutter 710 disengages from the mold.

[0034] Electric telescopic pole and its parameters

[0035] Electric telescopic rod 702: The thrust is set to 800-1200N, which can meet the power requirements of cleaning and cutting actions before and after carbon fiber extrusion, ensuring that the arc-shaped air box moves accurately to the cleaning position and the arc-shaped cutter is stably attached to the inside of the mold; the stroke range is 150-200mm, which can adapt to the distance between the worktable and the extension table, and can cover the cleaning area above the extrusion mold and the cutting path inside the mold; the speed control adopts a step adjustment method, with the cleaning stage speed at 50-80mm / s to avoid excessive airflow disturbance affecting the impurity removal effect, and the cutting stage speed reduced to 20-30mm / s to ensure the cutting accuracy of the cutter.

[0036] Telescopic electric rod 708: The thrust is 300-500N, which can drive the arc-shaped cutter 710 to press down smoothly and fit against the inner side of the mold; the stroke is 80-120mm, which meets the movement requirements from the initial position to the cutting position inside the mold; the speed is fixed at 15-25mm / s to prevent the cutter from colliding with the mold or the cutting from being too fast.

[0037] The air pump 715 has an output pressure range of 0.6-0.8MPa, which ensures that the airflow ejected from the air nozzle 712 has sufficient impact force to effectively remove dust, fiber debris and other impurities from the surface of the extrusion die 14. The minimum airflow is 120L / min, which ensures that a stable airflow can be maintained when multiple air nozzles are working at the same time, avoiding incomplete cleaning due to insufficient air volume. The typical cleaning time is 30-60s, which can ensure the cleaning effect without affecting the overall production efficiency.

[0038] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The workbench 1 is fixedly connected to two sides of an extension platform 2. The top of each extension platform 2 is fixedly connected to an air pump frame 5. The inner side of the air pump frame 5 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the air pump 715. The bottom of the fixed frame 701 is fixedly connected to the top of the extension platform 2. The top of the sliding column 3 is fixedly connected to a top plate 6. The bottom of the top plate 6 is fixedly connected to multiple auxiliary round rods 10. Multiple holes are opened on the extrusion plate 8. The auxiliary round rods 10 are movably connected to the inside of the holes. The bottom of each auxiliary round rod 10 is fixedly connected to a base 11. The opposite side of the base 11 is fixedly connected to both sides of the workbench 1. The top of the workbench 1 is fixedly connected to a work plate 13. The temperature plate 910 is located above the work plate 13. The rectangular hole is located below the work plate 13.

[0039] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 7 and Figure 8The temperature control component 9 also includes a temperature control frame 901. The outer side of the temperature control frame 901 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the rectangular hole. Symmetrical retaining frames 902 are fixedly connected to the bottom inner side of the temperature control frame 901. Heaters 903 are fixedly connected to the inner sides of each retaining frame 902. A hot gas separation conveying head 904 is fixedly connected to the outer side of each heater 903. Multiple conveying pipes 905 are fixedly connected to the outer side of each hot gas separation conveying head 904. The top end of each conveying pipe 905 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of a heat dissipation head 914 located on both sides. A retaining cylinder 907 is movably connected to the outer side of each conveying pipe 905. A mounting bracket 906 is fixedly connected to the outer side of each retaining cylinder 907. The bottom end of the mounting bracket 906 is fixedly connected to the inner bottom end of the temperature control frame 901. A heat separation conveying head 904 is fixedly connected to the outer side of each heat dissipation head 904. Multiple vertical tubes 908 are fixedly connected, with the top of each vertical tube 908 being fixedly connected to the bottom of the central heat sink 914. A fixing plate 911 is fixedly connected to the outer sides of both the vertical tubes 908 and the conveying pipe 905. The bottom of the temperature sensor 912 is fixedly connected to the top of the fixing plate 911. Symmetrical probes 913 are fixedly connected to the top of the temperature sensor 912.

Multiple through holes are provided on the working plate 13, with the outer sides of the external cylinders 909 and the inner sides of the through holes fixedly connected.

[0040] Specifically, before the carbon fiber material is extruded, the heater 903 of the constant temperature component 9 is activated. The heat is diverted through the hot gas separation conveyor head 904, and then transferred to the heat dissipation head 914 through the conveying pipe 905 and the vertical pipe 908. Finally, the heat is dissipated to the extrusion die 14 by the temperature plate 910 to complete the preheating. During the extrusion process, the temperature sensor 912 monitors the temperature of the temperature plate 910 in real time and feeds it back to the control system. The system adjusts the power of the heater 903 and the heat dissipation rate of the heat dissipation head 914 according to the difference between the temperature and the set value to ensure that the die temperature is constant and to ensure product quality.

[0041] Temperature control parameters of constant temperature component

[0042] Temperature setting: Based on the molding characteristics of carbon fiber materials (such as T700 grade carbon fiber composites), the typical temperature setting value of the temperature control system is 120-160℃. This temperature range can ensure that the material is fully cured and will not degrade in performance due to excessive temperature.

[0043] Sensor accuracy: The temperature sensor 912 uses a PT100 platinum resistance sensor with an accuracy of ±0.5℃, which can accurately monitor the temperature changes of the temperature plate 910 and provide reliable data support for temperature control.

[0044] Temperature control algorithm: Employing a PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) control algorithm, when the temperature sensor detects a temperature deviation from the set value, the control system can quickly calculate the deviation and adjust the heater power. For example, when the temperature is 1°C below the set value, the heater power increases by 10%-15%; when the temperature is 1°C above the set value, the heater power decreases by 10%-15%, while the heat sink 914 accelerates heat dissipation, ensuring that temperature fluctuations are controlled within ±2°C, achieving a stable constant temperature environment.

[0045] (a) Curved tool materials

[0046] The 710 curved cutting tool is made of cemented carbide (such as WC-Co cemented carbide with a cobalt content of 8%-12%), with a lower limit of hardness set at HRA88. It has the characteristics of high hardness and high wear resistance, and can effectively cut carbon fiber materials. It avoids the problem of tool wear leading to a decrease in cutting accuracy during long-term use, and its service life can reach more than 5,000 cutting operations.

[0047] (ii) Materials for temperature plates and heat sinks

[0048] Temperature plate 910: Made of oxygen-free copper with a thermal conductivity of 401W / (m•K), it can quickly and evenly transfer heat to ensure that the temperature of each area of ​​the extrusion die 14 is consistent, and avoid product molding defects caused by local temperature differences.

[0049] Heat sink 914: Made of 6061 aluminum alloy with a thermal conductivity of 155W / (m•K), it combines good thermal conductivity with lightweight characteristics. It can efficiently transfer the heat generated by the heater to the temperature plate, while also being easy to install and maintain.

[0050] (III) Heater type and power

[0051] The heater 903 uses a tubular electric heater with a power of 2000-3000W. It can quickly generate heat to meet the temperature plate's requirement to rise to the set temperature. It also has high heating efficiency and low energy consumption, and is compatible with the overall design of the constant temperature component. (I) Specific Implementation Examples

[0053] Taking the extrusion molding of T700 grade carbon fiber composites as an example, the complete process and key data are as follows:

[0054] Cleaning stage: Start the air pump 715, output pressure 0.7MPa, air flow 150L / min, and use the air nozzle 712 to clean the area above the extrusion die 14 for 45 seconds. After cleaning, the amount of impurities remaining on the die surface is <0.1mg / cm².

[0055] Extrusion stage: Carbon fiber material is placed on the extrusion die. The lower pressure plate 4 drives the extrusion column 12 and extrusion plate 8 to move downwards, applying a pressure of 5 MPa. At the same time, the constant temperature component is activated, and the temperature is set to 140℃. Through a PID control algorithm, the temperature fluctuation range is controlled within 139-141℃. The extrusion duration is 10 minutes, and the material is completely cured and formed.

[0056] Cutting stage: The electric telescopic rod 702 moves at a speed of 25 mm / s, the telescopic electric rod 708 presses down at a speed of 20 mm / s, and the arc-shaped cutter 710 cuts against the inner side of the mold. The dimensional deviation of the product after cutting is ±0.05 mm, which meets the high precision requirements.

[0057] (II) Comparison of experimental data

[0058] A comparative experiment was conducted between the mold of the present invention and a traditional mold without cleaning or temperature control functions. The results are shown in the table below:

[0060] The data shows that the present invention significantly improves product quality, dimensional accuracy, and surface cleanliness through the synergistic effect of the cleaning component and the constant temperature component, fully verifying the effectiveness of the technical solution.

[0061] (a) Temperature control system control logic

[0062] Temperature sensor 912 collects temperature data from temperature plate 910 in real time and transmits the data to PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) control system via RS485 communication interface. The control system compares the collected temperature value with the set temperature value. If the temperature is lower than the set value, the PLC outputs a signal to increase the power supply voltage of heater 903, increasing heating power; if the temperature is higher than the set value, the PLC outputs a signal to decrease the power supply voltage of heater and simultaneously controls the cooling fan speed of heat sink 914 to increase heat dissipation. The entire adjustment process has a response time of less than 1 second, ensuring that the temperature quickly returns to the set range.

[0063] (ii) Electrical connection relationship

[0064] Temperature sensor and control system: It adopts RS485 communication interface connection with a transmission rate of 9600bps. The data transmission is stable and has strong anti-interference ability, which can ensure accurate transmission of temperature data.

[0065] Heater and control system: Connected via solid-state relays, the control signals output by the PLC trigger the solid-state relays to switch on and off, thereby regulating the power supply to the heater and controlling the heating power, avoiding circuit damage caused by directly controlling high-power equipment.

[0066] Electric telescopic pole, telescopic electric pole and control system: It adopts pulse signal control. The PLC outputs pulse signals to the motor driver, and the driver controls the motor to operate, realizing the speed and stroke control of the telescopic pole with an accuracy of up to 0.01mm.

[0067] The method of using a carbon fiber extrusion molding die, as described above, includes the following steps:

[0068] Step 1: Before the carbon fiber material is extruded, the multiple air nozzles 712 on the outside of the arc-shaped air box 711 of the component 7 are cleaned to clean the upper part of the extrusion mold 14, removing impurities and other impurities on the mold. The cleaned carbon fiber material is placed on the extrusion mold 14, and the lower pressure plate 4 drives the extrusion column 12 and the extrusion plate 8 to move downward, applying pressure to the carbon fiber material so that it is extruded and formed in the extrusion mold 14.

[0069] Step 2: During this process, the thermostatic component 9 located in the rectangular hole inside the workbench 1 starts to work. The heat sink 914 below the temperature plate 910 and the temperature sensor 912 on the outside work together to maintain the stability of the internal temperature of the extrusion mold 14, ensuring that the carbon fiber material can be formed in a suitable temperature environment.

[0070] Step 3: After the carbon fiber material is extruded and formed, the cleaning and cutting component 7 operates again. At this time, the arc-shaped cutter 710 cuts off the excess carbon fiber material after extrusion and forming, so that the final product reaches the required shape and specifications.

[0071] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present invention, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
