[0024] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to specific embodiments. These embodiments will help those skilled in the art to further understand the present invention, but do not limit the invention in any way. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make several changes and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention. These all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0025] Example 1: To address the problem of mold inserts 4 being damaged or whitened at the opening when ejecting from the building block assembly structure during toy part demolding, this invention provides a building block assembly structure comprising a flared opening 2, a flat position 1, and a recessed position 3 arranged sequentially, as shown below. Figure 1 As shown, the flat part 1 extends along the axial direction of the opening to form the first width. During demolding, the mold insert 4 mainly has extrusion friction with the flat part 1. The reason why the opening of the building block assembly structure is damaged or turned white is caused by the extrusion friction between the mold insert 4 and the flat part 1 when the building block assembly structure is removed. Experiments have shown that the damage or whitening of the opening of the building block assembly structure is related to the first width of the flat part 1. If the first width is too wide, the opening is prone to being turned white; if the first width is too narrow, the opening is prone to being damaged.
[0026] Furthermore, the first width of position 1 is denoted as N, such as Figure 3As shown, the value of N is set to 0.3~0.6 mm. In practical applications, the first width can be designed to be 0.3 mm, 0.4 mm, 0.5 mm, 0.6 mm, etc., which can reduce the chance of the opening being damaged or whitened, thus improving the quality of the product.
[0027] The present invention also provides a demolding method for a building block assembly structure, wherein the first width of the flat position 1 configured on the building block assembly structure is set to 0.3 to 0.6 mm, the first width is formed by the flat position 1 extending along the axial direction of the building block assembly structure, the front end of the flat position 1 is provided with a flared mouth 2, and the rear end of the flat position 1 is provided with a groove position 3.
[0028] It should be noted that the block assembly structure, through the setting of the first width of the flat position 1, and in coordination with the structure of the flared mouth 2, the groove position 3, etc., can solve the problem of the opening of the block assembly structure being torn or whitened. This reduces the probability of the opening of the block assembly structure being torn or whitened when the mold insert 4 is removed from the block assembly structure, thus improving the appearance quality of the product.
[0029] Specifically, the parameters affecting the appearance quality of the product include the first width of the flat part 1, the draft angle of the flared mouth 2, the undercut amount at the location of the groove 3, and the wall thickness at the location of the flat part 1. All of these parameters will affect the appearance quality of the product. The combination of all the above parameters can better solve the problem of the opening of the building block assembly structure being damaged or whitened. The combination of all the above parameters can make the appearance quality of the building block assembly structure better.
[0030] The flared opening 2 extends along the axial direction of the modular assembly structure to form a second width, so as to play a better guiding role and facilitate production and processing.
[0031] like Figure 5 As shown, the second width is K, K≥0.2mm, and the preferred value of K is 0.3 to 0.6mm. For example, the specific values of K can be 0.3mm, 0.4mm, 0.5mm, 0.6mm, etc.
[0032] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, the wall thickness at position 1 is L. L can also affect the product quality during demolding. The value of L is 1.2 to 2.5 mm. For example, the specific values of L can be 1.2 mm, 1.3 mm, 1.4 mm, 1.5 mm, 1.6 mm, 1.7 mm, 1.8 mm, 1.9 mm, 2 mm, 2.1 mm, 2.2 mm, 2.3 mm, 2.4 mm, 2.5 mm, etc. The specific value can be flexibly selected according to the actual size of the product and the application scenario.
[0033] like Figure 4As shown, the undercut at groove position 3 is M, and the value of M ranges from 0.05 to 0.08 mm. For example, the specific values of M can be 0.05 mm, 0.06 mm, 0.07 mm, 0.08 mm, etc. It should be noted that the undercut here refers to the undercut on one side of the opening.
[0034] To ensure the initial width of the opening 1 is designed to be 0.3–0.6 mm, the ends of the modular assembly structure are transitioned by a flared opening 2 structure, with a draft angle >8°. Figure 6 As shown, on the one hand, by setting the horn-shaped structure 2, the first width of the flat position 1 can be flexibly adjusted; on the other hand, it is also conducive to rapid assembly and improves assembly efficiency.
[0035] The present invention also provides a mold insert for matching a building block assembly structure, specifically, as shown in the example. Figure 12 As shown, the modular assembly structure of this invention can be obtained by axial injection molding using a mold insert pin during the molding process.
[0036] The present invention also provides a mold, including a mold insert.
[0037] The present invention also provides a building block, including a building block assembly structure or a building block assembly structure demolding method.
[0038] The present invention also provides a toy, including the building blocks of the present invention.
[0039] This invention addresses the issue that during demolding of toy parts, the opening of the building block assembly structure is easily damaged or whitened when the mold insert 4 exits the assembly. Experiments have shown that this damage or whitening is related to the proper setting of parameters such as the first width of the flat part 1, the wall thickness at the flat part 1, the draft angle, and the undercut amount at the groove location. By setting the first width of the flat part 1 to 0.3–0.6 mm, this technical problem can be significantly improved. The wall thickness at the flat position 1 is set to 1.2-2.5 mm, the draft angle of the flared opening is set to >8°, and the undercut at the groove position is 0.05-0.08 mm. Through the coordinated cooperation of the flat position 1 with the flared openings 2 and groove positions 3 on both sides, the squeezing force between the mold insert 4 and the flat position 1 is moderate when the mold insert 4 comes out of the building block assembly structure. This can reduce or avoid the situation where the opening of the building block assembly structure is damaged or whitened, thereby improving the quality of the product and reducing the production cost of the product.
[0040] Example 2: This embodiment is the first preferred example of Embodiment 1.
[0041] In this embodiment, the front end of the building block assembly structure is equipped with a flared mouth 2, the rear end is equipped with a groove position 3, and the first width of the middle flat position 1 is set to 0.4 mm. When the mold insert pin 4 comes out of the building block assembly structure, the probability of the opening of the building block assembly structure being damaged or whitened is low, and most products have a good appearance.
[0042] Example 3: This embodiment is the second preferred example of Embodiment 1.
[0043] In this embodiment, the front end of the building block assembly structure is equipped with a flared mouth 2, the rear end is equipped with a groove position 3, the first width of the middle flat position 1 is set to 0.5 mm, and the wall thickness at the flat position 1 is set to 1.8 mm. When the mold insert pin 4 comes out of the building block assembly structure, the probability of the opening of the building block assembly structure being damaged or whitened is low, and most products have a good appearance.
[0044] Example 4: This embodiment is the third preferred example of Embodiment 1.
[0045] In this embodiment, the first width of the flat position 1 is set to 0.3 mm, the wall thickness of the flat position 1 is set to 2 mm, and the undercut at the groove position 3 is 0.07 mm.

[0047] In this embodiment, the first width of the flat position 1 is set to 0.3 mm, the wall thickness at the flat position 1 is set to 2 mm, the draft angle of the flared mouth 2 is 9°, and the undercut at the groove position 3 is 0.06 mm. Through the coordinated cooperation of the flat position 1 with the flared mouth 2 and the groove position 3 on both sides, the probability of the opening of the block assembly structure being damaged or whitened when the mold insert pin 4 comes out of the block assembly structure is extremely low, and most products have a good appearance.
[0048] Example 6: This embodiment is the fifth preferred example of Embodiment 1.
[0049] In this embodiment, the first width of the flat position 1 is set to 0.6 mm, the width of the flared mouth 2 is 0.6 mm, the draft angle of the flared mouth 2 is 9°, and the undercut at the location of the groove position 3 is 0.08 mm.
