[0020] In order to further explain the technical means and effects adopted by the present invention to achieve the predetermined purpose of the utility model, the specific implementation method, structure, characteristics and effects of the present invention are described in detail below in combination with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0021] Example: Please refer to Figure 3-6 , an injection mold with improved parting line, includes a front mold 2, a rear mold 1, an insert 5 and a slider 3. In this embodiment, the front mold 2 is a fixed mold, and the rear mold 1 is a movable mold.

[0022] The insert 5 is located between the front mold 2 and the rear mold 1. The front mold 2 and the rear mold 1 are respectively provided with grooves that match the insert 5. The insert 5 is provided with a first positioning hole 52 for positioning and locking with the front mold 2; the insert 5 is provided with a second positioning hole 53 for positioning and locking with the rear mold 1. The insert 5 is driven into the front mold 2 through the first positioning hole 52 by the screw 6 to achieve the positioning and locking of the insert 5 and the front mold 2; the insert 5 is driven into the rear mold 1 through the second positioning hole 53 by the screw 6 to achieve the positioning and locking of the insert 5 and the rear mold 1. Preferably, in this embodiment, the first positioning hole 52 and the second positioning hole 53 are located on the same straight line and communicate with each other. A convex section 51 is provided at the communication point between the first positioning hole 52 and the second positioning hole 53, which can simplify the structure of the insert 5 without affecting the function. When the insert 5 and the front mold 2 are positioned and locked, for example, the front mold 2 is located at the bottom, the screw 6 passes through the convex section 51 from top to bottom, so that the thread of the screw 6 enters the front mold 2, and the head of the screw 6 is blocked by the convex section 51. Figure 3 When the insert 5 and the rear mold 1 are positioned and locked, the screw 6 passes through the convex section 51 from bottom to top, so that the thread of the screw 6 enters the rear mold 1, and the head of the screw 6 is blocked by the convex section 51, as shown in FIG. Figure 4 shown.

[0023] The joint between the front mold 2 and the insert 5 facing the product 4 is located on the appearance surface of the product 4, replacing the joint between the rear mold 1 and the front mold 2 facing the product 4 in the prior art, which is located on the appearance surface of the product 4; while the joint between the rear mold 1 and the insert 5 facing the product 4 is not located on the appearance surface of the product 4.

[0024] Working principle of this embodiment: This embodiment provides an injection mold for improving the parting line. First, the screw 6 is drilled from top to bottom through the convex section 51 and the first positioning hole 52 into the front mold 2, so that the insert 5 is positioned and locked on the front mold 2, and then the joint between the front mold 2 and the insert 5 facing the product 4, that is, the parting surface and the parting line, is polished to eliminate the step difference at the parting line. The joint between the front mold 2 and the insert 5 facing the product 4 is located on the appearance surface of the product 4, replacing the joint between the rear mold 1 and the front mold 2 facing the product 4 in the prior art. It is located on the appearance surface of the product 4. Therefore, by polishing Grinding the joint between the front mold 2 and the insert 5 facing the product 4 improves the parting line of the product 4 at a position that is easily observed by sight, thereby improving the commercial appearance of the product 4. Then loosen the screw 6, place the insert 5 on the groove where the rear mold 1 and the insert 5 cooperate, and drill the screw 6 into the rear mold 1 from bottom to top through the convex section 51 and the second positioning hole 53, so as to achieve the positioning and locking of the insert 5 on the rear mold 1, and then the movable mold rear mold 1 moves to close with the fixed mold front mold 2, and a cavity is formed between the front mold 2, the insert 5, the rear mold 1, and the slider 3, and molding is performed by injection molding into the cavity, such as Figure 5 shown.

[0025] During processing, the insert 5 is positioned and locked on the front mold 2 and processed together with the front mold 2. Since the parting surface formed between the front mold 2 and the insert 5 is a contact surface and an open space, it can be directly machined or manually polished to achieve zero step difference, that is, eliminate the step difference, such as Figure 6 As shown, in the prior art, there are only the front mold 2 and the rear mold 1, but no insert 5. When the front mold 2 and the rear mold 1 are closed, the parting line cannot be directly machined or manually polished. It can only be printed on a FIT mold machine with red lead to match the parting line of the front mold 2 and the rear mold 1. Multiple matches are required, and it is difficult to achieve a zero-order difference.

[0026] After the mating is completed, the insert 5 and the front mold 2 are unhard-connected, and then positioned and locked on the rear mold 1. When the front mold 2 and the rear mold 1 are closed, the insert 5 will be mated with the front mold 2 again. Because the insert 5 was previously mated with the front mold 2 alone and processed and polished, the step difference of the parting line formed by the insert 5 and the front mold 2 must be smaller than the step difference of the parting line formed by the rear mold 1 and the front mold 2 in the prior art. Therefore, the injection mold provided by the utility model reduces the step difference at the parting line, improves the parting line, and improves the appearance of the product 4. The injection mold is easy to make, simple in structure, safe, durable and reliable.
