TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of injection mold, in particular to a horizontal injection molding machine mold mounting device and method. BACKGROUND
[0002] Injection molding machines are divided into horizontal, vertical and angular types. Currently, the most widely used in enterprise production is the horizontal injection molding machine. During use, the mold needs to be installed on the injection molding machine for production. However, the existing horizontal injection molding machine mold is heavy, and generally uses a crown block to hoist the mold, transports the mold to the top of the injection molding machine, and adjusts the mold position by workers operating the crown block. Since the crown block uses a steel wire rope to hoist the mold, the mold swings in the air and is likely to hit the injection molding machine or even injure the operator. Since there is no positioning device to fix the mold, the positioning of the mold during installation completely relies on the intuition of the workers, making the installation very inconvenient, greatly increasing the working hours, especially for heavy molds that need to be installed, which requires multiple workers to cooperate to install, prolonging the production cycle of the product and affecting the work efficiency. Therefore, there is a lack of a device that can quickly install the mold on the horizontal injection molding machine.
[0003] Currently, the patent with publication number CN116945484A discloses a plastic injection mold auxiliary installation device, which relates to the technical field of injection molds. The device is applicable to vertical injection molding machines. The plastic injection mold auxiliary installation device cannot solve the problems of accurate positioning and inconvenient installation during the installation of horizontal injection molding machine molds. Therefore, a horizontal injection molding machine mold installation device is needed to solve the technical problems of inaccurate positioning and inconvenient installation of molds in the prior art.
