Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of production of a floor brush gear box for a sweeping machine, in particular to an injection mold for a floor brush gear box for a sweeping machine. Background Art

[0002] As an important part of modern smart home, the floor brush gearbox is one of the key components of the floor sweeping robot. Its quality and precision have an important impact on the overall performance of the floor sweeping robot. The traditional floor brush gearbox manufacturing method often has problems such as low production efficiency and insufficient precision, which cannot meet the market demand for high quality and high efficiency of the floor sweeping robot. Therefore, the floor brush gearbox injection mold of the floor sweeping robot came into being, which can accurately replicate the various components of the gearbox and ensure the dimensional accuracy and surface quality of the gearbox. At the same time, the injection mold has high production efficiency and can achieve mass production.

[0003] For example, the Chinese authorized patent with announcement number CN211105211U, "An injection molding device for the shell of a sweeping robot", includes a base and an injection molding cylinder.

In addition, due to its own high temperature, local deformation is prone to occur during the demolding process, thereby affecting the molding quality. Therefore, it does not meet the existing needs. In this regard, we propose an injection mold for the floor brush gear box of the sweeper. Utility Model Content

A coolant tank is arranged inside the base, and the water outlet pipes extend to the inside of the coolant tank. Circulation pumps are installed on both sides of the coolant tank, one end of the circulation pump is connected to the inside of the coolant tank, and the other side of the circulation pump is connected to the water inlet pipe of the cooling pipe.

[0009] Preferably, a top plate is provided above the movable seat, and a servo motor is fixedly installed at the four corners of the upper end surface of the top plate, and threaded rods are installed at the four corners between the base and the top plate, the threaded rods are rotatably connected to the base and the top plate, and the output shaft of the servo motor is connected to the upper end of the threaded rod through a coupling, and a sliding block is installed on the outside of the threaded rod, the inner screw hole of the sliding block is adapted to the threaded rod, and one side of the sliding block is fixed to the movable seat by bolts.

[0014] Preferably, the cavity formed when the upper mold and the lower mold are closed is a molding cavity of the gear box.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0016] 1. The utility model is provided with adjustment plates on both sides of the movable seat. Under normal circumstances, the adjustment plates are stored inside the movable seat. After the gear box housing is formed and cooled, the movable seat drives the upper mold to rise to a set height. At this time, the driving motor is turned on, and its output shaft drives the adjustment plate to rotate until the clamping plate contacts the molded part. One side of the clamping plate is connected to the adjustment plate through a rotating shaft, and can be fine-adjusted according to the upper contour of the molded part, so that the clamping plate can fit the molded part more closely. After clamping is completed, as the movable seat continues to rise, it drives the molded part to separate from the lower mold, so that the staff can perform the material collection operation. The mechanism has high flexibility, stable clamping, and reasonable use of mold space.

[0017] 2. The utility model is provided with a molding cooling mechanism. After the gear box between the upper mold and the lower mold is molded, the refrigeration system is turned on, and the refrigerant is compressed in the compressor to increase its pressure and temperature. The refrigerant absorbs heat from the surrounding environment, and then the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant enters the condenser. In the condenser, the refrigerant exchanges heat with the external environment through the heat sink or pipe, gradually cools itself and turns into liquid. The liquid refrigerant passes through the expansion valve and enters the evaporator. Under the action of the expansion valve, the pressure and temperature of the refrigerant are sharply reduced, so that it evaporates quickly, absorbs heat from the material around the evaporator, reduces its temperature, and introduces the cold into the interior of the coolant tank to reduce the temperature of the coolant. By turning on the circulating pumps on both sides, the low-temperature coolant is transported to the interior of the upper mold and the lower mold, and moves in the annularly distributed cooling pipes, generating heat exchange between the molds, and transferring the low temperature to the molded gear box shell, forming rapid cooling, and achieving the purpose of rapid molding. The mechanism can assist the demoulding mechanism to work, ensuring that the gear box shell remains in a hard state during demoulding, and avoiding deformation during the demoulding process.

[0018] 3. The utility model is provided with a mold alignment verification mechanism. The output shaft of the servo motor drives the threaded rod to rotate, and the rotational motion is converted into linear motion under the friction with the sliding block, so as to drive the upper mold to move downward through the movable seat. Under normal circumstances, the upper mold and the lower mold remain aligned, and the fixed column can enter the interior of the positioning groove without hindrance. If the upper mold and the lower mold are not aligned due to aging of parts, as the upper mold descends, the edge of the positioning groove will preferentially contact the movable block, so that the movable block extends toward the inside of the fixed column until it contacts the pressure sensor. At this time, an electrical signal is generated to the processor, and the processor stops the operation of the servo motor and sends an alarm to notify the staff to handle it. This mechanism can effectively avoid the situation of mold misalignment due to aging of equipment, and can be calibrated in time to avoid the expansion of economic losses.

[0028] The cooling pipe 10 is arranged inside the upper mold 3 and the lower mold 4, and the cooling pipe 10 is distributed in a rectangular spiral shape. A water inlet pipe and a water outlet pipe are respectively arranged at both ends of the cooling pipe 10.

[0029] When in use, under normal circumstances, the adjustment plate 11 is stored inside the movable seat 2. After the gear box shell is formed and cooled, the movable seat 2 drives the upper mold 3 to rise to the set height. At this time, the drive motor 16 is turned on, and its output shaft drives the adjustment plate 11 to rotate until the clamping plate 15 contacts the molded part. One side of the clamping plate 15 is connected to the adjustment plate 11 through a rotating shaft, and can be fine-tuned according to the upper contour of the molded part, so that the clamping plate 15 can fit the molded part better. After clamping is completed, as the movable seat 2 continues to rise, it drives the molded part to separate from the lower mold 4, so that the staff can perform material collection operations.

[0030] See also Figure 2 A top plate 6 is arranged above the movable seat 2, and a servo motor 8 is fixedly installed at the four corners of the upper end surface of the top plate 6. Threaded rods 7 are installed at the four corners between the base 1 and the top plate 6. The threaded rod 7 is rotatably connected to the base 1 and the top plate 6, and the output shaft of the servo motor 8 is connected to the upper end of the threaded rod 7 through a coupling. A sliding block 5 is installed on the outside of the threaded rod 7.

[0031] See also Figure 1 An evaporator 14 is installed below the coolant tank 12, the lower end of the evaporator 14 is fixed to the base 1, and a heat-conducting metal plate is provided between the upper end of the evaporator 14 and the coolant tank 12, and also includes a refrigeration system;

[0032] After the gearbox between the upper mold 3 and the lower mold 4 is formed, the refrigeration system is turned on, and the refrigerant is compressed in the compressor to increase its pressure and temperature. The refrigerant absorbs heat from the surrounding environment, and then the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant enters the condenser. In the condenser, the refrigerant exchanges heat with the external environment through the heat sink or pipe, gradually cools itself and turns into liquid. The liquid refrigerant passes through the expansion valve and enters the evaporator 14. Under the action of the expansion valve, the pressure and temperature of the refrigerant are sharply reduced, so that it evaporates quickly, absorbs heat from the substances around the evaporator 14, and reduces its temperature. The cold amount is introduced into the interior of the coolant tank 12 to reduce the temperature of the coolant. By turning on the circulating pumps on both sides, the low-temperature coolant is transported to the interior of the upper mold and the lower mold, and moves in the annularly distributed cooling pipe 10, generating heat exchange with the molds, and transferring the low temperature to the molded gearbox housing, forming rapid cooling, thereby achieving the purpose of rapid molding.

[0033] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 , positioning grooves 18 are provided at the front and back of the upper mold 3, and fixing columns 17 are installed at the front and back of the upper end of the lower mold 4, and the fixing columns 17 are plugged and fixed with the lower mold 4, and an installation cavity is installed at the upper end of the fixing column 17, and a sliding movable block 19 is provided inside the installation cavity, and a pressure sensor 20 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the installation cavity, and a spring 21 is installed between the pressure sensor 20 and the movable block 19.

[0035] See also Figure 5 A torsion spring 22 is installed on the rotating shaft at the connection between the clamping plate 15 and the adjusting plate 11 to provide support for the clamping plate 15 and facilitate its reset.

[0036] Furthermore, the cavity formed when the upper mold 3 and the lower mold 4 are closed is the molding cavity of the gear box.

[0037] Working principle: When in use, the output shaft of the servo motor 8 drives the threaded rod 7 to rotate, and the rotational motion is converted into linear motion under the friction with the sliding block 5, thereby driving the upper mold 3 to move downward through the movable seat 2. Under normal circumstances, the upper mold 3 and the lower mold 4 remain aligned, and the fixed column 17 can enter the interior of the positioning groove 18 without hindrance. If the upper mold 3 and the lower mold 4 are not aligned due to aging of parts, as the upper mold 3 descends, the edge of the positioning groove 18 will contact the movable block 19 first, allowing the movable block to extend toward the interior of the fixed column 17 until it contacts the pressure sensor 20. At this time, an electrical signal is generated to the processor, and the processor stops the operation of the servo motor 8 and issues an alarm to notify the staff to handle it.
