Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of mold processing technology, and in particular to a full-circumference undercut side-push forming mold and a full-circumference undercut side-push forming method. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the aluminum alloy casings for electronic products such as tablets and laptops are often manufactured using a cutting process, which forcibly scrapes and shapes the aluminum alloy raw material. However, the cutting process has a high defect rate due to three types of defects (damage, defects, and defects), and the formed casings are prone to have obvious machining marks. This contradicts the high requirements for the appearance of electronic product casings. In addition, the edges and corners of electronic product casings often require precision machining. To reduce waste, in addition to the scraping forming master mold, multiple sets of molds are used in the processing, such as chamfering molds and waste cutting molds. This significantly increases mold-making costs and results in high production costs. Summary of the Invention

Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0017] Example 1 Please see Figures 1-6 The first aspect of this embodiment discloses a full-circumference undercut side-pushing forming mold, comprising: The lower mold is used for limiting and placing materials, and the upper mold is provided on the top of the lower mold; The lower mold includes a lower mold base, a lower template is assembled on the top surface of the lower mold base, a platform is set in the middle of the top surface of the lower template, side-push shaping blocks are set around the platform, side-push mating blocks are set on the outside of the side-push shaping blocks, and a limiting block is assembled on the outside of the side-push mating blocks. The upper mold includes an upper mold base, a stripping back plate is provided at the bottom of the upper mold base, a stripping plate is provided at the bottom of the stripping back plate, and a wedge post and a spring post are provided perpendicular to the stripping plate. An inner support block is slidably assembled at the bottom of the spring post. An inner pressing block is provided in the middle of the bottom surface of the stripper plate. The side slope of the inner pressing block and the side slope of the inner support block guide and cooperate to limit and lock the material placed on the top surface of the platform during the downward pressing stroke of the upper mold. The inclined surface at the end of the wedge column guides and engages with the inclined surface at the top of the side push block, pushing the protrusion of the side push molding block to the side of the material that is locked in place during the downward stroke of the upper mold, thus shaping it.

[0018] In this embodiment, the material between the upper and lower molds is locked and fixed by the coordinated operation of the components of the upper and lower molds, and the side plate of the material is pushed and formed.

[0019] This processing requires only one set of molds, significantly reducing production costs.

[0020] At the same time, since no cutting process is used, there are no machining marks that may be produced by the cutting process, thus improving the yield rate.

[0021] As an alternative implementation, the material includes a smooth substrate and side plates perpendicular to the edges of the substrate.

[0022] Here, the material is assembled upside down on the platform to facilitate the side plate being pushed into place in subsequent processes.

[0023] As an alternative implementation, during the first downward stroke of the upper die, the bottom surface of the inner support block contacts and supports the substrate surface of the material.

[0024] As an optional implementation, during the second downward stroke of the upper mold, the bottom surface of the inner pressing block touches and presses against the substrate surface of the material, while its inclined surface pushes against the inclined surface inside the inner support block, pushing the inner support block to spread and slide. The protrusion of the inner support block abuts against the inner side plate of the material, limiting and locking the material.

[0025] Here, during the first and second pressing strokes, the inner pressing block presses the material substrate flat against the table to ensure that the material remains flat and does not deform during processing.

[0026] Furthermore, the inner support block provides internal support to the sides of the material to limit the degree of bending of the side plate during processing and ensure that excessive deformation does not occur.

[0027] As an optional implementation, during the third downward stroke of the upper die, the inclined surface at the end of the wedge pushes the inclined surface of the side push mating block, causing the side push mating block to retract and slide.

[0028] As an optional implementation, the sliding side-push mating block pushes the side-push shaping block to slide and retract, and the protrusion of the side-push shaping block pushes the side of the material that is locked in place to retract.

[0029] Here, after the material's inner wall surface is perfectly limited, the upper mold drives the lower mold's side-pushing shaping block to perform side-pushing shaping.

[0030] As an alternative implementation, during the fourth downward stroke of the upper mold, the side-pushing shaping block retracts and slides to its stroke limit, and its protrusion pushes the material to the side to form the shape.

[0031] Here, the stroke limit of the upper die corresponds to the forming specifications of the material.

[0032] As an optional implementation, during the demolding stroke of the upper mold, the side-push shaping block and the side-push mating block spread out of the outer side wall of the material, the inner pressing block rises and detaches from the surface of the material, the inner support block retracts and detaches from the inner side wall of the material, and the molded material is placed on the top surface of the platform.

[0033] Here, as the upper mold rises and detaches, the side-pushing molding block of the lower mold also detaches from the material, and the material is placed on the platform to await retrieval.

[0034] Compared with the prior art, this embodiment has the following beneficial effects: In this embodiment, the material between the upper and lower molds is locked and fixed by the coordinated operation of the components of the upper and lower molds, and the side plate of the material is side-push and formed. Only one set of molds is needed, which significantly reduces the production cost. At the same time, there are no machining marks that may be generated by the cutting process, and the yield rate is improved.

[0035] Example 2 Please see Figure 7 The second aspect of this embodiment discloses a full-circumference undercut side-pushing forming method, comprising: a. Place the material at the top of the lower mold.

[0036] b. The upper mold is pressed down to resist and support the internal material.

[0037] c. The upper mold continues to press down to drive the lower mold to push the material sideways and form it.

[0038] d. The upper mold rises and detaches from the lower mold.

[0039] In this embodiment, only one mold and a single stroke are needed to shape the material by side pushing, without the need for multiple processing steps using multiple molds such as cutting and chamfering. This significantly improves processing efficiency, saves additional mold opening costs, and reduces production costs.

[0040] As an alternative implementation, the material is placed upside down on top of the lower mold, with the upper surface of the material in contact with the upper surface of the lower mold, and the side plate of the material is perpendicular to the upper surface of the lower mold.
