[0031] With the continuous development and progress of science and technology, two-color injection molding has been widely used in almost all plastic fields such as various electronic products, power tools, medical products, household appliances, toys, etc., and related industries such as the production and molding of two-color injection molds, the research and development of two-color injection molding machines and two-color injection molding raw materials have also developed rapidly.

[0032] The products produced by traditional two-shot injection molds include one-shot products and two-shot products. During injection molding, the one-shot product needs to be initially molded in the mold before the two-shot product can be injected. The connection strength at the junction of the one-shot product and the two-shot product is insufficient, which easily causes detachment, affecting the quality of the injection molded product.

[0033] In order to solve the above problems, the utility model proposes a two-color mold structure, which aims to improve the stability of the connection between the first shot product and the second shot product and improve the quality of the injection molded product. Figures 1 to 3 The present invention is a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of a two-color mold structure provided by the present invention.

[0034] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3The utility model proposes a two-color mold structure 1000, including a mold body 1 and a floating mechanism 2, the mold body 1 includes a front mold and a rear mold 11 that are movably connected, the front mold and the rear mold 11 enclose a cavity that can accommodate molten plastic, and the front mold includes a first movable part and a second movable part that can move relatively; the floating mechanism 2 includes a floating insert 21 and a pusher, the floating insert 21 is movably arranged in the rear mold 11 and is correspondingly arranged with the first movable part; the rear mold 11 is correspondingly arranged with the second movable part; the pusher is arranged in the rear mold 11 and connected with the floating insert 21, and the pusher drives the floating insert 21 to move up and down relative to the rear mold 11; wherein the two-color mold structure 1000 has a first injection molding state for molding a one-shot product 100 and a second injection molding state for molding a one-shot product 100. The second injection molding state of molding the two-shot product 200 on the one-shot product 100; in the first injection molding state, the outer edge of the floating insert 21 is flush with the side of the rear mold 11 facing the front mold, and the first movable part, the side of the floating insert 21 facing the front mold, and the partial structure of the rear mold 11 close to the floating insert 21 are enclosed to form a first cavity that can accommodate the one-shot product 100; in the second injection molding state, the pushing member drives the floating insert 21 to move close to the front mold, and the outer edge of the floating insert 21 protrudes from the side of the rear mold 11 facing the front mold, and the outer peripheral wall of the molded one-shot product 100, the outer wall of the floating insert 21, and the side of the rear mold 11 facing the front mold are enclosed to form a second cavity that can accommodate the two-shot product 200.

[0035] In the technical solution of the utility model, a two-color mold structure 1000 is proposed, including a mold body 1 and a floating mechanism 2. The entire injection molding process is divided into two stages, and through the active cooperation between the front mold and the rear mold 11, a first cavity and a second cavity are respectively enclosed in the first injection molding state and the second injection molding state to injection mold a first-shot product 100 and a second-shot product 200. Before the injection molding of the second-shot product 200, the floating insert 21 is driven by a pusher to lift the first-shot product 100 in the cavity by a certain distance. In this way, when the second-shot product 200 is injected, the molten plastic can enter this part of the lifted space. After cooling, a limit portion can be formed on the second-shot product 200 to limit the first-shot product 100, thereby improving the connection strength between the first-shot product 100 and the second-shot product 200 and ensuring the quality of the injection molded products.

[0036] In an optional embodiment, in order to facilitate the installation of the floating insert 21, the floating mechanism 2 further includes a floating insert seat 22, the floating insert seat 22 is arranged on the rear mold 11, and the end of the floating insert 21 away from the cavity is connected to the floating insert seat 22. Figure 1The end of the floating insert 21 away from the cavity cooperates with the floating insert seat 22. Optionally, a protruding structure can be provided on the floating insert 21 to overlap with the floating insert 21, so that the floating insert seat 22 can limit the floating insert 21 to prevent the floating insert 21 from rotating in the hole.

[0037] Optionally, a plurality of floating inserts 21 are provided in the rear mold 11, and one end of each floating insert 21 away from the cavity is connected to the floating insert seat 22. In the actual product setting process, the two-shot product 200 may cooperate with multiple one-shot products 100, so multiple one-shot products 100 need to be injected simultaneously in one cavity. Correspondingly, multiple floating inserts 21 should also be provided in the injection mold. In order to facilitate the installation and positioning of the floating inserts 21 in one cavity at one time, these floating inserts 21 can be installed on the same floating insert seat 22. Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 Four floating inserts 21 are installed on the floating insert seat 22, which can simplify the installation structure of each floating insert 21 to the greatest extent and facilitate the production of parts in the injection mold.

[0038] In an optional embodiment, in order to push the floating insert 21 to drive the first shot product 100 to move in the cavity, the floating mechanism 2 further includes a floating insert push block 23, which is arranged on the side of the floating insert seat 22 facing away from the cavity, and the floating insert push block 23 is engaged with the floating insert seat 22, and the floating insert seat 22 can be close to or away from the cavity along the extension direction of the floating insert 21 in the rear mold 11. Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The floating insert pushing block 23 is arranged on the side of the floating insert seat 22 facing away from the cavity. The floating insert pushing block 23 is snap-fitted with the floating insert seat 22 so that when the floating insert pushing block 23 moves toward or away from the cavity in a straight line direction, it can drive the floating insert seat 22 and thus each floating insert 21 can be moved and adjusted relative to the cavity.

[0039] In an optional embodiment, in order to push the floating insert push block 23 to move in the rear mold 11, the two-color mold structure 1000 further includes a slider seat 24, and one end of the floating insert push block 23 away from the cavity abuts against the slider seat 24, and the slider seat 24 can push the floating insert push block 23 to approach or away from the cavity. Figures 1 to 3The contact part between the slider 24 and the floating insert push block 23 is arranged in an inclined surface, so that the movement mode of the slider 24 can be flexibly adjusted to realize the movement of the floating insert 21. For example, when the slider 24 moves along the extension direction perpendicular to the floating insert 21, the slider 24 can press the floating insert push block 23 to make it move in a straight line. When the slider 24 moves along the extension direction of the floating insert 21, the slider 24 can also realize the movement of the floating insert push block 23 by vertical lifting. In this way, whether it is vertical movement or horizontal movement, it can drive the floating insert 21 to move.

[0040] Furthermore, in order to achieve stable cooperation between the slider seat 24 and the floating insert push block 23, a slide groove 241 is provided at one end of the slider seat 24 close to the floating insert push block 23, and a sliding portion 231 is provided at one end of the floating insert push block 23 close to the slider seat 24 corresponding to the slide groove 241, and the sliding portion 231 is engaged with the slide groove 241. Figures 1 to 3 The setting inclination of the slide groove 241 and the sliding part 231 is consistent with the inclination of the inclined surface at the junction of the sliding groove 24 and the floating insert pushing block 23, so that when the slide groove 241 and the sliding part 231 cooperate, the movement trajectory of the floating insert pushing block 23 is always consistent each time, and at the same time, it is ensured that the sliding seat 24 will not interfere with the floating insert pushing block 23 when pushing the floating insert pushing block 23 to move, thereby improving the stability of the cooperation between the sliding seat 24 and the floating insert pushing block 23.

[0041] In an optional embodiment, in order to ensure the connection strength between the first shot product 100 and the second shot product 200, the floating insert 21 pushes the first shot product 100 to protrude from the rear mold 11 by a distance of 0.55 mm. Figure 1Before the injection molding of the first shot product 100, the end face of the outer edge of the floating insert 21 is flush with the end face of the rear mold 11, and the front mold and the rear mold 11 are driven by the pushing mechanism to enclose the cavity of the first shot product 100 to injection mold the first shot product 100. After the first shot product 100 is injection molded and cooled for a period of time, the pushing mechanism drives the front mold to retreat to enclose the cavity of the second shot product 200 with the rear mold 11, and the floating insert 21 is lifted to move the first shot product 100. 0 is ejected by 0.55mm, so that the bottom surface of the first-shot product 100 and the end surface of the lower mold have a height of 0.55mm. When the injection molding of the second-shot product 200 begins, the molten plastic fluid will enter the 0.55mm space, and after cooling, a fixing portion is formed to lock and fix the first-shot product 100 in the second-shot product 200. In this way, the first-shot product 100 and the second-shot product 200 are tightly connected together to avoid separation due to cold shut and other reasons, thereby ensuring the quality of the plastic product.

[0042] In an optional embodiment, in order to realize the movement of the slider seat 24, the two-color mold structure 1000 further includes a shovel 25, which is engaged with one end of the slider seat 24 away from the floating insert push block 23, and the shovel 25 can drive the slider seat 24 to move up and down. Figures 1 to 3 A matching hole is formed at one end of the slider seat 24 away from the floating insert 21, and a partial structure of the shovel 25 is clamped in the matching hole, so that the slider seat 24 can be pulled to move along the extending direction of the floating insert 21, or the slider seat 24 can be pushed to move along the extending direction perpendicular to the floating insert 21, thereby realizing the movement of the floating insert 21.

[0043] In an optional embodiment, in order to facilitate ejection of the two-shot product 200 after injection molding, the two-shot mold structure 1000 further includes an ejector rod, which is disposed on the rear mold 11 and can be lifted and moved relative to the rear mold 11 toward the cavity to eject the two-shot product 200. Figures 1 to 3 A plurality of ejector pins are arranged on the bottom periphery of the two-shot product 200, each of the ejector pins passes through the lower mold, the movable insert seat, the movable insert seat and the slide seat 24, and is connected to the top plate below to realize synchronous movement to eject the two-shot product 200 out of the cavity, thereby ensuring the integrity of the two-shot product 200 and avoiding deformation of the two-shot product 200 caused by inconsistent movement speeds of the ejector pins.

[0044] The utility model also provides an injection mold, which includes a two-color mold structure 1000 and a template, wherein the template is arranged at both ends of the column of the mold to connect the injection mold to an injection molding machine. The specific structure of the two-color mold structure 1000 refers to the above embodiment. Since the injection mold adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here one by one.

[0045] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. All equivalent structural changes made by using the contents of the present invention specification and drawings under the inventive concept of the present invention, or directly / indirectly applied in other related technical fields are included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
