[0046] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with embodiments.
[0047] The utility model includes a base 21, the top support of the base 21 is fixedly connected with an intermediate platform 22, the top of the intermediate platform 22 is supported and fixed with a top platform 24 by four support columns 26, and the lifting platform 23 is located between the intermediate platform 22 and the top platform 24; the cylinder body of the hydraulic cylinder 61 is fixed on the top platform 24, the piston rod passes through the top platform 24 and abuts against the lifting platform 23 through a connecting piece, that is, the lifting platform 23 is driven to descend by the hydraulic cylinder 61, but the hydraulic cylinder 61 is not required to directly drive the lifting platform 23 to lift.
[0048] Combination Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, an upper mold insert 4 and a lower mold insert 3 are provided between the intermediate platform 22 and the base 21, wherein the lower mold insert 3 is fixed to a corresponding mounting surface 213 of the base 21 (see Figure 7 ), the upper die insert 4 is located directly above the lower die insert 3, and can be raised and lowered relative to the lower die insert 3 to achieve clamping and disengagement with the lower die insert 3.
[0049] Three nitrogen cylinders 62 and two sets of reset limiter components 65 are arranged above the upper mold insert 4;
[0050] Each nitrogen cylinder 62 passes through the middle platform 22 and leaves a movable gap therebetween. The top of the cylinder body of the nitrogen cylinder 62 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the lifting platform 23, and the piston rod is in contact with the upper mold insert 4. Preferably, a blind hole 41 is provided on the upper mold insert 4 for the piston rod of the nitrogen cylinder 62 to be embedded and abutted, so as to prevent the piston rod from falling off and reduce the height of the mechanism.
[0051] Each set of reset limit stroke assembly 65 includes a connecting rod 651, which is slidably sleeved with a bearing sleeve, and the bearing sleeve is fixed to the intermediate platform 22, that is, the connecting rod 651 slides through the intermediate platform 22; the lower end of the connecting rod 651 located below the intermediate platform 22 is embedded in the countersunk through hole 42 of the upper die insert 4, and the lower end of the connecting rod 651 is fixed to the upper die insert 4 by a bolt 655; the outer sleeve of the connecting rod 651 located above the intermediate platform 22 is provided with an elastic sleeve 652, and the top of the connecting rod 651 is slidably sleeved with a large washer 653, and a small washer 654 fixed to the top of the connecting rod 651 by bolts plays a role in limiting and preventing the large washer 653 from falling off, and the upper and lower ends of the elastic sleeve 652 are respectively abutted against the large washer 653 and the intermediate platform 22, that is, the elastic sleeve 652 is sandwiched between the large washer 653 and the intermediate platform 22. The main function of the large washer 653 is to increase the force-bearing area at the top of the elastic sleeve 652 and make it evenly stressed.
[0052] Preferably, in order to further reduce the overall height of the mechanism, a clearance hole 231 is provided on the lifting platform 23 to accommodate and avoid the top of the adjustment component 65. Further, the clearance hole 231 is a stepped hole, the annular step of which can press against the large washer 653, and the fine hole section can allow the small washer and the top of the connecting rod 651 to pass without interference.
[0053] like Figure 4 As shown, the intermediate platform 22 and the lifting platform 23 are also provided with four rigid limit columns 63 and four retaining nitrogen springs 64, wherein the bottom of each rigid limit column 63 is fixedly connected to the intermediate platform 22, and the top can be pressed against the lifting platform 23 for limit; the cylinder body of each retaining nitrogen spring 64 is fixedly connected to the lifting platform 23, and the top end of the piston rod is pressed against the intermediate platform 22.
[0054] Combination Figures 8 to 10 As shown, a pair (two groups) of side push units are provided on the left and right sides of the clamping unit composed of the upper mold insert 4 and the lower mold insert 3 in the base 21, that is, there are four groups of side push units in total. The four groups of side push units use the driving power transmitted by the downward pressure of the lifting platform 23 to move synchronously. The two groups of side push units on the same side correspond to the groove walls 11 on both sides of the side incision of the product respectively. The four groups of side push units on both sides synchronously push the groove walls 11 on both sides toward the center in the horizontal direction, thereby shaping the groove walls at the incision. Specifically:
[0055] Each set of side push units includes: a driving block 52 that is slidably connected to each other and can slide in the vertical direction and a shaping block 51 that can slide in the horizontal direction. The driving block 52 slides through the intermediate platform 22 and is connected to the top of an adjustment pad 522 whose thickness can be changed according to the travel requirements. The top of the driving block 52 abuts against the lower surface of the lifting platform 23 through the adjustment pad 522. The ends of the driving block 52 and the shaping block 51 that are slidably connected to each other are 45-degree inclined surfaces (521, 511). The end of the shaping block 51 that faces the product to be shaped (or the lower mold insert 3 of the clamping unit) is formed with a wedge-shaped shaping head 512, and the shaping head 512 is responsible for abutting against the groove wall 11.
[0056] A return nitrogen spring 56 is provided between the shaping block 51 and the base to enable the shaping block 51 to return and slide in a direction away from the lower mold insert 3 of the clamping unit. Figure 7 , Fig.10 and Fig.11 As shown, the lower part of the shaping block 51 is accommodated by the receiving groove 2154 opened by the base 21, and the bottom of both sides of the shaping block 51 in the sliding direction are respectively provided with slider protrusions 514, and the guide pressing sheet 55 fixed on the mounting surface 2155 presses against the slider protrusions 514, thereby realizing the sliding guidance and anti-dropping effect of the shaping block 51. The lower end surface of the shaping block 51 is slidably connected with the sliding gasket 54 fixed to the bottom of the receiving groove 2154 of the base to reduce wear and facilitate replacement; the reset nitrogen spring 56 is accommodated in the receiving groove 513 opened at the lower part of the shaping block 51, and one end of the reset nitrogen spring 56 abuts against the shaping block 51, and the other end abuts against the receiving groove 2154 of the base, providing a reset force for the shaping block 51.
[0057] The slots formed by the middle platform 22 and the mounting surface 2125 fixed to the side of the base 21 (see Figure 7 ) form a channel for the driving block 52 to pass through the middle platform 22 and guide its lifting. When the driving block 52 is lifted or lowered, it is pressed against the side baffle 25 by the force of the return nitrogen spring 56 transmitted by the shaping block 51, so a sliding gasket 53 fixed to the side baffle 25 is provided between the side baffle 25 and the driving block 52 to reduce wear and facilitate replacement.
[0058] like Figure 2 As shown, the lifting platform 23 is fixed with a sensing sheet 72, and the middle platform 22 and the top platform 24 are each installed with a displacement sensor 71 through a mounting frame, which is used to monitor whether the lifting stroke of the lifting platform is in place.
[0059] Working principle:
[0060] The hydraulic cylinder 61 is pressurized to drive the lifting platform 23 downward;
[0061] On the one hand, the lifting platform 23 drives the three nitrogen cylinders 62 to press down, and the nitrogen cylinders 62 drive the upper mold insert 4 to press down. The connecting rod 651 of the reset limiter assembly 65 is slidably connected with the bearing sleeve fixed to the intermediate platform 22, providing guidance for the lifting of the upper mold insert 4. The rigid limit column 63 provides a limit for the lowering stroke of the lifting platform 23. The upper mold insert 4 and the lower mold insert 3 clamp the groove bottom 10 of the product 1 to be shaped. The three nitrogen cylinders 62 provide a slightly elastic buffer downward pressure for the upper mold insert 4 to avoid the clamping damage of the upper mold insert 4 and the lower mold insert 3 to the product 1 caused by rigid direct connection conduction;
[0062] On the other hand, the lifting platform 23 descends to drive the driving blocks 52 of the side push units on both sides to press downward, and the inclined surface of the driving block 52 slides against the inclined surface of the shaping block 51, driving the shaping block 51 to move horizontally toward the lower mold insert 3, see Fig. 9 , the groove walls on both sides of the product 1 are squeezed inwards for a certain stroke through the shaping head 512;
[0063] After the extrusion shaping is completed, the hydraulic cylinder 61 is controlled to release pressure, and the four nitrogen springs 64 for holding provide power for the lifting platform 24 to rise, and provide support force to maintain the position after the lifting platform 24 rises to the right position; on the one hand, under the rebound force of the elastic sleeve 652 of the reset limit component 65, the connecting rod 651 is driven to rise through the large washer 653 and the small washer 654, and the connecting rod 651 drives the upper mold insert 4 to lift a certain stroke, and the lifting stroke only needs to meet the gap between the upper mold insert 4 and the lower mold insert 3, which is enough to extract the previous product and insert the next product;
[0064] On the other hand, under the action of the rebound force of the reset nitrogen spring 56 of each group of side thrust units, the shaping block 51 slides outward and resets until the shaping head 512 is separated from the pressure against the groove wall of the product 1, and the groove walls on both sides of the product 1 rebound to a certain extent, meeting the shaping requirements.
[0065] Regarding the reset limit stroke assembly 65: During the descent of the lifting platform 23, the annular step of the avoidance hole 231 presses against the large washer 653, the elastic sleeve 652 is compressed and retracted, and the fine hole section allows the small washer and the top of the connecting rod 651 to pass without interference. The large washer 653 and the connecting rod 651 are slidably sleeved, so the descent of the large washer 653 will not directly drive the connecting rod 651 to descend, and the connecting rod 651 only passively descends with the upper mold insert 4. During the ascent of the lifting platform 23, the nitrogen cylinder 62 is not responsible for driving the lifting of the upper mold insert 4, mainly because the nitrogen cylinder 62 is not convenient for adjusting and controlling the lifting stroke of the upper mold insert 4. Therefore, the utility model designs a reset limit stroke assembly 65 to drive the lifting of the upper mold insert 4, and the lifting stroke of the upper mold insert 4 can be adjusted by adjusting the compression of the elastic sleeve 652, the length of the connecting rod 651, the length of the bolt at the bottom of the connecting rod 651 and the screw connection with it, and other means.
[0066] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
