Detailed Implementation
[0016] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, further illustrating the present invention.
[0017] First, combine Figures 1-5 A cold runner rubber vulcanizing mold according to an embodiment of the present invention is described for injection molding of small rubber products.
[0018] like Figures 1-5 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a cold runner rubber vulcanizing mold, comprising: a mold assembly, a glue injection assembly, and a venting assembly; The mold assembly includes: an upper template 1, a glue injection plate 2, a lower template 3, and a hanging lug 4; The injection plate 2 is located between the upper template 1 and the lower template 3. The upper template 1 is installed on the mold temperature controller, and the lower template 3 is located on the lifting device. The injection plate 2 has hanging ears 4 on both sides. The glue injection assembly includes: an injection mechanism 5 and a glue injection mold 6; The injection mold 6 is disposed on the injection plate 2, and an injection cavity is opened in the injection mold 6. The injection mechanism 5 is disposed on the upper template 1 and is used to pass the glue into the injection cavity. The exhaust assembly includes: a height equalizing screw 7, a disc spring 8, and a vacuum unit; The equalizing screw 7 passes through the glue injection plate 2 and is connected to the hanging ear 4. There is a gap between the nut of the equalizing screw 7 and the glue injection plate 2. The disc spring 8 is sleeved on the outside of the equalizing screw 7 and located between the glue injection plate 2 and the hanging ear 4. The upper surface of the lower template 3 is provided with an exhaust groove, which is connected to the vacuum machine.
[0019] This application uses the injection mechanism 5 to introduce rubber material into the injection cavity of the injection mold 6. After 80% of the product injection is completed, the lifting device below the lower mold plate 3 drives the lower mold plate 3 to move downward a certain distance. The elastic force of the disc spring 8 pushes the injection plate 2 upward, so that the surface of the injection plate 2 is in contact with the nut of the equal-height screw 7. At this time, a gap will appear between the injection plate 2 and the lower mold plate 3. The gas in the injection cavity enters the exhaust groove through the gap. The gas is extracted by the vacuum machine. The lifting device drives the lower mold plate 3 to move upward, so that the injection cavity is closed, completing the full injection of the product. This ensures that the vulcanized product has no burrs or air pockets, eliminating the need for subsequent trimming, improving product production efficiency and quality, and avoiding waste of rubber material.
[0020] The mold temperature controller and lifting device in this embodiment are common devices in the prior art.
[0021] The injection mechanism 5 includes: a glue injection nozzle 51 and an injection nozzle 52; The injection nozzle 51 is located on the upper mold plate 1 and is connected to the mold temperature controller. The injection nozzle 52 is located in the upper mold plate 1. The upper end of the injection nozzle 52 is connected to the injection nozzle 51, and the lower end is connected to the injection cavity.
[0022] The injection mechanism 5 also includes: a cold runner plate 53; The middle of the cold runner plate 53 is connected to the injection nozzle 51. A flow divider groove is provided on the cold runner plate 53 to divide the adhesive into several injection nozzles 52.
[0023] In this embodiment, the mold temperature controller introduces the adhesive into the cold runner plate 53 through the injection nozzle 51. The adhesive is then distributed into several injection nozzles 52 by the flow channels on the cold runner plate 53. The flow channels within the cold runner plate 53 are evenly distributed, ensuring that the adhesive flows the same distance into each injection nozzle 52, thus guaranteeing that the injection speed for each product is the same. The upper template 1 includes: an upper cooling plate 11, a lower cooling plate 12, and a heat insulation plate 13; The lower cooling plate 12 is located between the upper cooling plate 11 and the heat insulation plate 13. The upper cooling plate 11 is connected to the mold temperature controller. Both the upper cooling plate 11 and the lower cooling plate 12 are provided with cooling water channels 14. The cooling water channels 14 in the lower cooling plate 12 are provided corresponding to the injection nozzle 52.
[0024] In this embodiment, after the product is injected with adhesive, the adhesive material remains in the cold runner plate 53. Cooling water channels 14 are provided in the upper cooling plate 11 and lower cooling plate 12 to cool the adhesive material in the cold runner plate 53, maintaining the temperature of the cold runner plate 53 at 80°C, thereby storing the adhesive material within the cold runner plate 53. The adhesive material in the injection nozzle 52 within the heat insulation plate 13 will age over a period of time. Before the next product injection, the aged adhesive material must be removed.
[0025] The glue injection assembly further includes: a glue injection pad 54; The glue injection pad 54 is disposed in the lower template 3, and the glue injection pad 54 is disposed corresponding to the glue injection mold 6.
[0026] In this embodiment, by setting an injection pad 54 below the injection mold 6, the adhesive material is prevented from sticking to the lower template 3, so that the product is formed in the injection mold 6.
[0027] The injection plate 2 is provided with a plurality of heating rods 21, which are positioned at the upper end of the injection mold 6.
[0028] During the injection process, the rubber material in the injection mold 6 is heated by the heating rod 21 to keep the temperature of the rubber material at 170℃~180℃, so that the rubber material can be injected and molded.
[0029] The lower surface of the glue injection plate 2 is provided with a sealing ring groove, and an elastic sealing ring 9 is provided in the sealing ring groove. The elastic sealing ring 9 is used for sealing between the glue injection plate 2 and the lower template 3.
[0030] During the venting process, the spring force of the disc spring 8 will push the injection plate 2 upward, so that the surface of the injection plate 2 is in contact with the nut of the equal height screw 7. At this time, a gap will appear between the injection plate 2 and the lower template 3. The elastic sealing ring 9 will seal the gap between the injection plate 2 and the lower template 3 from the outside to prevent external gas from entering and ensure the vacuuming of the injection cavity.
[0031] A lifting cylinder is provided below the hook 4, and the output end of the lifting cylinder is connected to the hook 4.
[0032] After the product is injected with glue, the lifting device drives the lower template 3 to move downward, so that the lower template 3 and the glue injection plate 2 are separated from the upper template 1. The lifting cylinder drives the hanging ear 4 to move upward, so that the lower template 3 is separated from the glue injection plate 2. The formed product is in the glue injection mold 6. The product is taken out from the glue injection mold 6 to complete the mold opening.
[0033] The gap between the nut of the equal-height screw 7 and the glue injection plate 2 is 0.3mm~0.8mm.
[0034] During the venting process, the lifting device drives the lower template 3 to move downward a certain distance, which cannot exceed the gap between the nut of the equal height screw 7 and the injection plate 2, to ensure that the adhesive can smoothly enter the injection mold 6.
[0035] Above, refer to Figures 1-5This invention describes a cold runner rubber vulcanizing mold according to an embodiment of the present invention. In this application, rubber material is introduced into the injection cavity of the injection mold 6 via the injection mechanism 5. After 80% of the product injection is completed, a lifting device below the lower mold plate 3 drives the lower mold plate 3 to move downwards a certain distance. The elastic force of the disc spring 8 pushes the injection plate 2 upwards, causing the surface of the injection plate 2 to fit against the nut of the equal-height screw 7. At this time, a gap appears between the injection plate 2 and the lower mold plate 3. Gas in the injection cavity enters the venting groove through the gap and is extracted by a vacuum machine. The lifting device drives the lower mold plate 3 upwards, closing the injection cavity and completing the full injection of the product. This results in a vulcanized product without burrs or trapped air, eliminating the need for subsequent trimming, improving product production efficiency and quality, and avoiding waste of rubber material.
