DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0017] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0018] It should be noted that all directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) in the embodiments of the present utility model are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly. In the present utility model, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "connection", "fixed", etc. should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "fixed" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral whole; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements, unless otherwise clearly defined. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0019] In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but it must be based on the fact that ordinary technicians in the field can implement it. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the present utility model.

[0020] The utility model provides a nut insert positioning mechanism, the structure of which is as follows Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, it includes a first module 1 and a second module 2 which can be relatively close to and far away from each other, a first mounting hole 11 is provided in the first module 1, the first mounting hole 11 has an outer port 12 for the nut insert 4 to be installed, a first insert push rod 13 for pushing the nut insert 4 out of the outer port 12 is movably penetrated in the first mounting hole 11, and a second insert push rod 21 is provided on the second module 2, and the first insert push rod 13 cooperates with the second insert push rod 21 to position the nut insert 4. By adopting the structure in the present embodiment, when in use, the nut insert 4 is placed into the outer port 12 of the first mounting hole 11 when the mold is opened, and then the mold is closed and the nut insert 4 is gradually ejected from the outer port 12 by the first insert push rod 13. At the same time, the second insert push rod 21 approaches the nut insert 4, and the nut insert 4 is positioned outside the first module 1 by the cooperation of the first insert push rod 13 and the second insert push rod 21. Then, the nut insert 4 and the plastic product are injection molded as one through injection molding. After the mold is opened, the first insert push rod 13 and the second insert push rod 21 are separated. The whole process is simple to operate, which is conducive to improving production efficiency.

[0021] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the second insert push rod 21 to position the nut insert 4, a positioning column 22 suitable for inserting into the nut insert 4 and a stop step 23 provided at the root of the positioning column 22 are provided at the end of the second insert push rod 21. When positioning the nut insert 4, the positioning column 22 is inserted into the nut insert 4, and the stop step 23 supports the nut insert 4, thereby achieving reliable positioning.

When the driving block 3 moves relative to the first module 1, the driving surface 31 pushes the first insert push rod 13 to move outward. When the driving block 3 reverses and resets, the first insert push rod 13 can move toward the driving block 3, thereby making space at the external port 12 for the nut insert 4 to be placed in. The driving block 3 can move under the drive of an external driving mechanism (such as a cylinder).

[0023] In some embodiments, a mounting cavity 14 is provided in the first module 1, the mounting cavity 14 is connected to the inner end of the first mounting hole 11, the driving block 3 extends into the mounting cavity 14, and the driving surface 31 is arranged toward the first mounting hole 11; the driving block 3 is connected to the first module 1 by a sliding rail mechanism for movement and limitation. Exemplarily, the sliding rail mechanism can adopt such a structure: comprising a slide groove provided on the first module 1 and a slide rail provided on the driving block 3, and the movement and limitation of the driving block 3 are realized by the cooperation between the slide rail and the slide groove, and the position accuracy of the driving block 3 can be ensured.

[0024] In some embodiments, the external port 12 is tilted upward or arranged upward, so that the first insert push rod 13 is tilted or vertically arranged in the first mounting hole 11, so that when the driving block 3 is reset, the first insert push rod 13 moves toward the driving block 3 under the action of its own gravity.

[0025] Another embodiment of the utility model provides an injection mold, comprising the above-mentioned nut insert positioning mechanism, and the injection mold has all the advantages of the above-mentioned nut insert positioning mechanism.
