AI Technical Summary
During the compression molding process, the undercut structure of hemp fiber automotive door panels is prone to problems such as overflow, cracking, and insufficient wall thickness of the molded parts, especially in the deep undercut area, making it difficult to meet the structural performance requirements.
The hot pressing of the inverted structure is achieved by using an upper mold, a lower mold, a first slider mechanism, a second slider mechanism, and a third slider mechanism, combined with a driving cylinder. The overflow and stress distribution are controlled by the coordinated movement of the slider mechanism to ensure the molding quality.
It achieves high-precision molding of the inverted structure, with the overflow on the A side controlled within 0.5 mm, avoiding cracking and hole defects, meeting the strength requirements of the molded parts, and possessing good versatility and applicability.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of automotive door panel molding dies, specifically relating to a molding die for automotive door panels made based on bio-based reinforced materials. Background Technology
[0002] With the increasing emphasis on industrial environmental protection, the application of bio-based materials, represented by hemp fiber, continues to expand in fields such as automotive interiors and home appliance panels. Compression molding, as a key process in the production of hemp fiber products, directly affects the assembly compatibility of subsequent assembly processes. For example... Figure 1 As shown, taking the car door interior panel frame as an example, this product has an undercut structure of about 21 mm deep in the upper part area. This feature is prone to causing the following problems during normal pressing: 1. Significant overflow at the parting line on surface A: Due to the need for the undercut structure, the mold is equipped with a slider mechanism at this point. Under high temperature and high pressure conditions, the joint between the slider and the cavity causes the fiber material to overflow, forming a raised ridge on surface A of the product. 2. Product cracking during demolding: If the undercut depth is large, direct ejection can easily lead to component cracking due to stress concentration; 3. The wall thickness of the molded part does not meet the design requirements and the rigidity is insufficient: Hemp fiber material has almost no tensile properties. When the deep undercut area is formed in the natural laying state, the fiber is stretched and breaks, forming local holes and thinning of the thickness, which cannot meet the structural performance standards. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a molding die for automotive door panels made of bio-based reinforced materials, which aims to achieve hot pressing molding of automotive door panels with an inverted structure by closing the upper die, the lower die, the first slider mechanism, and the second slider mechanism.

The third drive cylinder is used to push the third slider mechanism to lock or disengage from the second slider mechanism; The first driving cylinder is used to push the first slider mechanism to move linearly along one side of the upper mold.
[0005] To better realize the present invention, the molding die further includes a device drive mechanism, which is used to simultaneously drive the upper die and the locking block to move up or down at the same time.

[0013] Example 1: A molding die for automotive door panels made from bio-based reinforcing materials, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the device includes a device drive mechanism, an upper mold 04, a lower mold 05, a locking block 02, a first slider mechanism 03, a second slider mechanism 06, and a third slider mechanism 08. A first drive cylinder 01, a second drive cylinder 07, and a third drive cylinder 10 are respectively arranged on the right side of the first slider mechanism 03, the second slider mechanism 06, and the third slider mechanism 08. The device drive mechanism is used to simultaneously drive the upper mold 04 and the locking block 02 to move upwards or downwards.
[0014] Below the upper mold 04, a lower mold 05 is provided. A second slider mechanism 06 is slidably provided on one side of the lower mold 05, and a first slider mechanism 03 is slidably provided on the corresponding side of the upper mold 04. The first slider mechanism 03 and the second slider mechanism 06 form an undercut structure pressing area. A third slider mechanism 08 is provided on one side of the second slider mechanism 06, and the third slider mechanism 08 is used to lock the second slider mechanism 06; a snap-fit groove is provided at the tail end of one side of the second slider mechanism 06 corresponding to the third slider mechanism 08 (preferably, the third slider mechanism 08 is a block structure, and the snap-fit groove is an L-shaped structure). The locking block 02 is used to lock the first slider mechanism 03 located in the mold closing position; a locking groove is provided at the top of the first slider mechanism 03 corresponding to the locking block 02.
[0015] The third drive cylinder 10 is used to push the third slider mechanism 08 to lock or disengage from the second slider mechanism 06; the second drive cylinder 07 is used to push the second slider mechanism 06 to move linearly along one side of the lower mold 05; the first drive cylinder 01 is used to push the first slider mechanism 03 to move linearly along one side of the upper mold 04. One side of the first slider mechanism 03 and the second slider mechanism 06 are respectively attached to the upper mold 04 and the lower mold 05, and the opposite side of the first slider mechanism 03 and the second slider mechanism 06 is used to press the undercut structure.
[0016] The workflow of this invention includes the following steps: 1. Mold Closing: The mold closing process is as follows: The second drive cylinder 07 pushes the second slider mechanism 06 to the limited position, and the second slider mechanism 06 is fully engaged with the lower mold 05; the third drive cylinder 10 pushes the third slider mechanism 08 to the limit position, thereby locking the third slider mechanism 08 onto the second slider mechanism. The softened hemp fiber felt, after baking, is precisely laid on the surface of the lower mold 05 and the second slider mechanism 06 by a robotic arm. Subsequently, the pressing mechanism 09 pre-presses and positions the fiber felt during the mold closing process. The first drive cylinder 01 pushes the first slider mechanism 03 to the mold closing limit position, and the equipment drive mechanism drives the upper mold 04 downward and moves the locking block 02 into place, thereby locking the first slider mechanism.
[0017] 2. After the mold is closed, apply high pressure and perform hot pressing.
[0018] 3. Mold opening: After the mold is depressurized, the equipment drive mechanism drives the upper mold 04 and the locking block 02 to move upward and separate; the first drive cylinder 01 pulls the first slider mechanism 03 back to the limit position; the third drive cylinder 10 pulls the third slider mechanism 08 back; the second drive cylinder 07 pulls the second slider mechanism 06 back to the initial position, and the robot takes out the molded product.
[0019] 4. Repeat the above actions to achieve continuous automated production.
[0020] The mold structure of this invention successfully achieves hot pressing molding of hemp fiber products with a maximum depth of 21 mm, and the overflow height on side A is no more than 0.5 mm; it effectively eliminates demolding cracks and defects such as holes generated during molding; it has good versatility and applicability, and can be applied to the molding and manufacturing of various hemp fiber interior products for automobiles.
