Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of aviation sealing component manufacturing technology, specifically relating to an automatic matching mold core assembly mold. Background Technology

[0002] The traditional manufacturing method for aerospace rubber and plastic seal assembly molds involves machining the upper and lower mold plates separately, then fitting them together using hinges and positioning guides. The precision of aerospace seals produced by this type of mold compression molding relies primarily on the positioning guides. Because aerospace rubber and plastic seals involve numerous specifications and small quantities, tens of thousands of molds need to be manufactured for a single aircraft, making mold manufacturing extremely expensive. Summary of the Invention

[0003] This invention provides an automatically aligned mold core assembly mold. This invention can effectively reduce mold development costs and is highly suitable for the aviation rubber and plastic sealing parts industry, which features a wide variety of specifications but small quantities.

[0004] Technical Solution. An automatic positioning mold core assembly mold includes a pair of opposing upper and lower templates. Each upper and lower template has one or more through holes, and the through holes of the upper and lower templates are aligned in pairs. An upper mold core and a lower mold core are correspondingly provided in the through holes of the upper and lower templates. The upper mold core is connected to the inner wall of the through hole of the upper template via elastic components distributed along the circumference, and the lower mold core is also connected to the inner wall of the through hole of the lower template via elastic components distributed along the circumference. The upper and lower mold cores in the aligned through holes form a cavity after being engaged.

[0005] In the aforementioned automatic positioning mold core assembly mold, the upper and lower mold cores are fitted in a conical surface fit.

[0006] In the aforementioned automatic positioning mold core assembly, the connection structure between the elastic component and the upper / lower mold core includes an annular groove disposed on the outer circumferential surface of the upper / lower mold core, a C-shaped retaining spring being engaged in the annular groove, and connecting holes distributed on the outer circumference of the C-shaped retaining spring; the connecting holes are connected to one end of the elastic component.

[0007] In the aforementioned automatic positioning mold core assembly, the connection structure between the elastic component and the upper / lower template includes a mounting hole disposed on the inner wall of the through hole of the upper / lower template, and the mounting hole is connected to the other end of the elastic component.

[0008] In the aforementioned automatic positioning mold core assembly, the elastic component includes a cylindrical base, one end of which is provided with a guide post. A housing is slidably connected to the guide post, and a spring cavity is provided between the housing and the guide post. A spring is provided inside the spring cavity, one end of which abuts against the housing and the other end abuts against the guide post via a pressure plate. The pressure plate is connected to one end of a connecting rod, and the other end of the connecting rod passes through the spring and the housing in sequence before being provided with a connecting hook. The connecting hook is hooked onto a connecting hole, and the mounting hole is fixedly connected to the other end of the cylindrical base.

[0009] In the aforementioned automatic positioning mold core assembly mold, a limiting post is provided on the inner wall of the outer shell, and a limiting groove is provided on the outer wall of the guide post. The limiting post and the limiting groove are slidably connected.

[0010] In the aforementioned automatic alignment mold core assembly mold, the connecting holes are symmetrically distributed.

[0011] In the aforementioned automatic alignment mold core assembly mold, there are 4 connecting holes.

[0012] Beneficial effects: The mold core of this invention has a certain degree of freedom in six directions: front-back, left-right, up-down, and right-back. It has high positioning accuracy, flexible mold core replacement, low mold development cost, and high production efficiency. One mold can produce products of different specifications, making it more suitable for multi-variety, small-batch production in the field of aerospace sealing components. At the same time, it can effectively avoid product misalignment caused by improper positioning of guide pillars and guide sleeves, and effectively improve the appearance quality of sealing components.

[0013] Traditional methods for manufacturing aircraft sealing molds typically involve integral molding of the cavity and mold base, or mechanical embedding of the mold core into the mold base. Mold closing and positioning rely on guide pillars and guide sleeves. This mold structure makes mold core disassembly difficult, mold maintenance inconvenient, and each mold can only produce one type of product. Mold closing and positioning accuracy is poor, resulting in generally lower product quality, making it suitable for mass production of single products. The mold manufacturing method provided by this invention employs a separate mold base and mold core design, eliminating the guide pillar and guide sleeve structure. The upper and lower mold cores are fitted by tapered inclined surfaces, and the mold base and mold core are connected by elastic components and C-shaped retaining rings. Molds manufactured using this structure have a highly versatile mold base, and the mold core has a certain degree of freedom in front-back, left-right, and up-down movements. They offer high positioning accuracy, simple and convenient mold core disassembly and maintenance, low mold development and usage costs, high product quality, and the ability to produce several different products from a single mold. This high production efficiency makes it more suitable for the diverse specifications and small-batch production characteristics of aircraft sealing products.

[0014] In summary, this invention can greatly reduce the number of molds to be manufactured, requiring only the processing of the mold core, which is then installed onto the mold base. The combined molds manufactured using this method are characterized by flexible installation, convenient disassembly and assembly, automatic alignment, and high precision. This can effectively reduce mold development costs and is very suitable for the aviation rubber and plastic sealing parts industry, which has a wide variety of specifications and small quantities.

[0023] Example 1. An automatic alignment mold core assembly mold, see [link to example]. Figures 1-6 It includes a pair of opposing upper templates 1 and lower templates 2. Each upper and lower template has one or more through holes 3. The through holes 3 of the upper and lower templates are aligned in pairs. The upper mold core 4 and lower mold core 5 are respectively provided in the through holes 3 of the upper and lower templates. The upper mold core 4 is connected to the inner wall of the through hole 3 of the upper template 1 through an elastic component 6 distributed along the circumference.

The upper and lower mold cores in the aligned through holes 3 form a cavity after being put together.

[0024] The aforementioned upper and lower mold cores are fitted in a conical surface configuration.

[0025] The aforementioned connection structure between the elastic component 6 and the upper / lower mold core includes an annular groove 7 disposed on the outer circumferential surface of the upper / lower mold core, a C-shaped retaining spring 8 being engaged in the annular groove 7, and connecting holes 9 distributed on the outer circumference of the C-shaped retaining spring 8; the connecting holes 9 are connected to one end of the elastic component 6.

[0030] The aforementioned number of connection holes 9 is 4.

[0031] Specifically, the upper template 1 and the lower template 2 are the base of the combined mold. They are the same size. A certain number of circular through holes 3 are distributed on the base of the combined mold. Four circular blind holes, i.e., mounting holes 10, are evenly distributed on the inner side of the circular through holes along the circumference.
