Specifically, when the plastic raw material is heated and melted in the injection molding machine, the screw of the injection molding machine will push the molten plastic forward and inject it into the mold cavity through the nozzle. In the mold, the plastic will be restricted by the shape and size of the mold cavity to form the desired product shape. Then, the mold will cool and solidify the plastic product through the cooling system to keep it in the desired shape and size. Finally, the mold opens and the molded plastic product is ejected, completing the entire injection molding process.
[0003] When there is an undercut on the product that is inconsistent with the demoulding direction, it is necessary to design an undercut demoulding structure in the mold; for a single undercut, by setting a slider on the mold, the undercut demoulding can be achieved by moving the slider, however, for multi-directional and dense undercuts (such as the one in the figure of the specification), Figure 1 As shown in the figure, there is no more space to set the slider, which makes it difficult to demould such products normally.

[0024] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0025] See also Figures 1 to 8 The utility model provides a front mold multi-directional undercut demoulding mechanism of an injection mold, which is installed on the front mold 1 of the injection mold. Among them, the injection mold also includes a front mold core 4, a rear mold core 12, a top plate 15, a hot runner plate 16 and a rear mold (not shown in the figure), the hot runner plate 16 is fixed between the top plate 15 and the front mold 1, the front mold core 4 is fixed to the bottom of the front mold 1, the rear mold core 12 is fixed to the top of the rear mold and is arranged opposite to the front mold core 4, and a cavity for injection molding a product 100 can be enclosed between the front mold core 4 and the rear mold core 12. In addition, the injection mold can also include a rear mold ejection mechanism, etc., which are all existing conventional technologies, so they will not be described in detail.
[0026] Furthermore, the front mold multi-directional undercut demoulding mechanism of the injection mold of the utility model comprises: a pull plate 2, at least one front mold insert 3 and a pull plate driving mechanism, a receiving groove 101 is provided on the side of the front mold 1 facing away from the mold cavity of the injection mold, and the pull plate 2 is provided in the receiving groove 101 and can move along the mold opening and closing direction. The front mold insert 3 is cylindrical, and is inserted into the front mold 1 vertically, and the upper end of the front mold insert 3 is fixedly connected to the pull plate 2 by screws, and the lower end of the front mold insert 3 is inserted into the front mold core 4 to participate in the injection molding of the product 100.
[0027] It is understandable that the number of the front mold inserts 3 can be configured accordingly according to the number of the undercut portions 1001 on the product 100. Figure 1 As shown, the product 100 molded by the injection mold of this embodiment has three undercut parts 1001, and the injection mold has two cavities, so six front mold inserts 3 are provided, all of which are fixedly connected to the pull plate 2.
[0028] See also Figure 5 and Figure 8The lower end of the front mold insert 3 is provided with a plurality of elastic claws 31 distributed symmetrically in the center, each elastic claw 31 is provided with a spring sheet portion 311 and a petal portion 312 integrally connected to the spring sheet portion 311, and the petal portions 312 of the plurality of elastic claws 31 are mutually closed to form an undercut molding cavity 313, and the undercut molding cavity 313 is sealed at the top, open at the bottom and connected to the mold cavity, so as to form the undercut part 1001 of the product 100. The spring sheet portion 311 has a certain elastic deformation ability, and in a free state, the plurality of petal portions 312 are mutually opened under the elastic force of their respective spring sheet portions 311.
[0029] Among them, the number of elastic claws 31 can be configured accordingly according to the undercut direction on the undercut part 1001. For example, the undercut part 1001 of the product 100 in this embodiment has four undercut directions, so four elastic claws 31 are arranged in a centrally symmetrical distribution.
[0030] After the product 100 is injection molded, the front mold 1 and the rear mold are opened relative to each other. During this process, the pull plate driving mechanism drives the pull plate 2 to drive the front mold insert 3 to move toward the rear mold core 12, so that the multiple insert petals 312 extend out of the front mold core 4. The multiple insert petals 312 open to each other under the elastic force of their respective spring parts 311, and then detach from the undercut part 1001. The utility model installs a front mold insert 3 on the front mold 1, and utilizes the elastic claws 31 arranged on the front mold insert 3 to form multi-directional and densely distributed undercuts. When the mold is opened, the insert petal portion 312 of the elastic claw 31 is pushed out of the front mold core 4, and opens accordingly under the elastic force of the spring piece portion 311, thereby realizing normal demolding of the product with multi-directional and densely distributed undercuts, without the need to disassemble and splice the product 100, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost of the product 100, shortening the processing cycle, and improving the aesthetics of the product 100; at the same time, in the process of the pull plate driving mechanism driving the pull plate 2 to drive the front mold insert 3 to move toward the rear mold core 12, the front mold insert 3 can also push the product 100 out of the front mold core 4, thereby preventing the product 100 from sticking to the front mold core 4, and improving the quality of the product 100.
[0031] See also Figure 6 The pull plate driving mechanism includes a plurality of reset springs 5, which are elastically abutted against the side of the pull plate 2 facing away from the cavity, so as to always apply an elastic force toward the cavity to the pull plate 2. In addition, the pull plate driving mechanism also includes a plurality of reset rods 6, which are distributed vertically, and their lower ends are fixedly connected to the front mold 1, and their upper ends protrude upward through the pull plate 2, and the reset rods 6 and the pull plate 2 are in clearance fit; the plurality of reset springs 5 are correspondingly mounted on the plurality of reset rods 6, and the upper ends of the reset rods 6 are provided with a stopper, and the two ends of the reset springs 5 are elastically abutted against the stopper and the pull plate 2, respectively.
[0032] See also Figure 4 and Figure 7A plurality of clamping devices 13 are installed on the rear mold core 12, and a plurality of clamping device bushings 14 are fixed on the pull plate 2. The plurality of clamping device bushings 14 are vertically downwardly penetrated through the front mold 1 and the front mold core 4 and are correspondingly plugged and matched with the clamping devices 13. Among them, the clamping device 13 can be a nylon clamping device.
[0033] When the mold is opened, the mold locker 13 and the mold locker bushing 14 are used together with the return spring 5 to drive the pull plate 2 to move downward, thereby improving the reliability and stability of the movement of the pull plate 2. When the mold is closed, the mold locker 13 and the mold locker bushing 14 are used together to push the pull plate 2 to move upward and compress the return spring 5, while driving the front mold insert 3 so that the insert petal 312 of the elastic claw 31 is pushed back to the front mold core 4.
[0034] See also Figure 5 The front mold core 4 is provided with a through hole 401, a cylindrical wear-resistant insert 7 is fixed in the through hole 401, and a plurality of insert petals 312 are slidably placed in the wear-resistant insert 7. Specifically, a step 402 is provided in the through hole 401, a hanging platform 701 is provided on the top periphery of the wear-resistant insert 7, and the hanging platform 701 stops on the step 402. The front mold 1 presses the wear-resistant insert 7 through a pressing ring 8, thereby fixing the wear-resistant insert 7. Among them, the wear-resistant insert 7 is made of a material with good wear resistance, and its function is to ensure the service life.
[0035] In this embodiment, the plurality of petal portions 312 are all fan-shaped, and their outer diameters when closed match the inner diameter of the wear-resistant insert 7. It is worth mentioning that an arc-shaped transition portion 314 is provided at the connection position between the spring portion 311 and the petal portion 312 to ensure that the petal portion 312 can be smoothly retracted into the wear-resistant insert 7.
[0036] In addition, in order to ensure the stability of the front mold insert 3 sliding up and down, an insert guide sleeve 9 is fixed in the front mold 1, and the insert guide sleeve 9 is slidably mounted on the front mold insert 3.

[0037] It can be seen that the front mold multi-directional undercut demolding mechanism of the injection mold of the utility model is equipped with a front mold insert 3 on the front mold 1, and uses the elastic claws 31 arranged on the front mold insert 3 to form multi-directional and densely distributed undercuts. When the mold is opened, the insert portion 312 of the elastic claw 31 is pushed out of the front mold core 4, and opens accordingly under the elastic force of the spring portion 311, thereby realizing normal demolding of the product with multi-directional and densely distributed undercuts, without the need to disassemble and splice the product 100, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost of the product 100, shortening the processing cycle, and improving the aesthetics of the product 100; at the same time, in the process of the pull plate driving mechanism driving the pull plate 2 to drive the front mold insert 3 to move toward the rear mold core 12, the front mold insert 3 can also push the product 100 out of the front mold core 4, thereby preventing the product 100 from sticking to the front mold core 4, thereby improving the quality of the product 100.
