Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of die casting technology, and in particular to a die casting device. Background Art

[0002] Object deformation can be divided into two types: elastic deformation and plastic deformation. Elastic deformation can be restored, while plastic deformation cannot be restored. The expected result of die casting shaping is generally plastic deformation, that is, the product is flattened and then fixed.

[0003] Flatness is an important characteristic for die castings. As die casting structures become more and more complex, products become larger and larger, correction becomes more and more difficult, die casting requirements become higher and higher, and labor costs become higher and higher. Utility Model Content

[0004] The present application aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, one purpose of the present application is to provide a die-casting device, in which each die-casting component can independently die-cast different areas of a workpiece, and the workpiece can be die-cast according to the actual conditions of different areas, which can improve the overall strength and stability of the product, improve production efficiency, extend the service life of the die-casting device, and reduce production costs.

[0005] The die-casting equipment according to the embodiment of the present application includes: a workbench and a die-casting module, wherein the die-casting module can be movably arranged above the workbench and is suitable for die-casting a workpiece placed on the workbench, and the die-casting module includes a plurality of die-casting components, each of which can independently die-cast different areas of the workpiece.

[0006] The die-casting equipment of the present application can independently die-cast different areas of the workpiece through each die-casting component, and can die-cast the workpiece according to the actual conditions of different areas. For example, different areas can be die-casted with different forces and different knocking frequencies, so the product quality can be controlled more accurately. It can also perform specific die-casting according to the characteristics of different areas, which can ensure that weak parts are die-cast with appropriate force to avoid excessive or insufficient die-casting, thereby improving the overall strength and stability of the product. In addition, reasonable allocation of force and frequency can reduce unnecessary repetitive operations and adjustment time, making the production process smoother, thereby improving production efficiency. Through precise die-casting, material waste and scrap rate can be reduced, while the service life of the mold can be extended and production costs can be reduced.

[0007] In one embodiment of the present application, the die-casting component includes: a pressing block, a sensor and a driving member, wherein the sensor obtains flatness information within a die-casting area corresponding to the die-casting component; and the driving member controls the pressing block to flatten the die-casting area according to the flatness information.

[0008] In the above example, the die-casting components have a high degree of automation, which can improve production efficiency and product leveling quality, reduce the necessary wear on the die-casting components, extend the service life of the die-casting components, and reduce equipment maintenance costs.

[0009] In one embodiment of the present application, the driving member is arranged above the pressing block, and an elastic member is further arranged between the driving member and the pressing block.

[0010] In the above example, by arranging an elastic member between the driving member and the pressing block, the service life of the die-casting component can be extended, the quality and consistency of the product can be improved, and the maintenance cost can be reduced.

[0011] In one embodiment of the present application, the elastic member includes a spring.

[0012] In the above example, the cost can be reduced and the stability of the die-casting component can be improved by providing a spring.

[0013] In one embodiment of the present application, a spring fixing column is connected below the driving member, the spring fixing column has a mounting groove opening downward, and the spring is installed in the mounting groove.

[0014] In the above example, by setting the spring fixing column, a stable installation position can be provided for the spring, thereby improving the stability and accuracy of the die-casting operation. At the same time, the downward-opening installation groove can effectively prevent the spring from accidentally falling off during operation, further improving the safety and reliability of the die-casting assembly.

[0015] In one embodiment of the present application, the die-casting module also includes: a spring fixing plate, on which a plurality of first guide holes are arranged, and the elastic parts of the plurality of die-casting components correspond one-to-one to the plurality of first guide holes, respectively, and each first guide hole is used to guide the deformation direction of the corresponding elastic part.

[0016] In the above example, the first guide hole can accurately guide the deformation direction of the elastic part, ensuring that each elastic part can function in a stable and consistent manner during operation, making the pressure applied by the pressure block to the die-casting area more uniform, thereby effectively improving the quality and consistency of the product. Secondly, by guiding the deformation direction of the elastic part, irregular distortion or displacement of the elastic part during operation is avoided, ensuring the smooth progress of the die-casting operation and reducing product defects caused by unstable factors. Furthermore, when the elastic part needs to be inspected or replaced, the first guide hole can serve as a clear positioning mark, allowing staff to quickly and accurately find the corresponding elastic part, greatly improving maintenance efficiency.

[0017] In one embodiment of the present application, the pressing block has a first channel penetrating the pressing block in an up-down direction, and the sensor is located above the pressing block and opposite to the first channel.

[0018] This design in the above example enables the sensor to obtain information about the die-casting area more directly and accurately. Through the first channel, the sensor can detect key data such as the flatness of the die-casting area without hindrance, improving the accuracy and reliability of detection. Secondly, the spatial layout is optimized. Setting the sensor in this position does not take up additional space, but can fit closely with the pressing block, making the entire die-casting assembly more compact and efficient. Furthermore, it facilitates maintenance and adjustment. If the sensor fails or needs calibration, this relatively fixed and clear position relationship is convenient for staff to operate and reduces maintenance costs. Finally, it helps to improve production efficiency. The precise sensor position and channel design can quickly feedback the situation in the die-casting area, so that the driver can control the pressing block in time for adjustment, speeding up the production process.

[0019] In one embodiment of the present application, the driving member has a second channel vertically opposite to the first channel, and the sensor is located above the driving member.

[0020] In the above example, by constructing a second channel on the driving member that is opposite to the first channel in up and down directions, the spatial layout can be further optimized, making the entire die-casting assembly more compact and reasonable, and also accelerating the response speed and improving product quality and production efficiency.

[0021] In one embodiment of the present application, the driving member includes a hydraulic cylinder.

[0022] In the above example, the hydraulic cylinder can provide a strong and stable driving force, ensuring that the pressure block can apply sufficient and uniform pressure to different die-casting areas, effectively improving the quality of die-casting. Secondly, the hydraulic cylinder has good response speed and precision control capabilities, and can quickly adjust the output force according to the feedback from the sensor to achieve precise die-casting. Furthermore, the hydraulic cylinder has high reliability and durability, and can maintain stable performance during long-term die-casting operations, reducing the cost of equipment maintenance and replacement. Finally, its structure is relatively compact, and it can cooperate well with other parts of the entire die-casting assembly, saving installation space and improving space utilization at the production site.

[0023] In one embodiment of the present application, the sensor is a laser sensor.

[0024] In the above example, the laser sensor has extremely high measurement accuracy and can accurately capture the slight unevenness of the die-casting area to ensure excellent product quality. Secondly, it has a fast response and can transmit data to the drive in a timely manner, so that the pressure block can be quickly adjusted to improve production efficiency. Furthermore, non-contact measurement avoids damage to the die-casting area, reduces its own wear, and prolongs its service life. Finally, it has strong stability and can operate reliably even in complex environments, ensuring that the die-casting operation continues to be stable.

[0025] In one embodiment of the present application, the die-casting module further includes: a guide assembly, and the guide assembly is used to guide the pressing block.

[0026] In the above example, the guide assembly provides accurate motion guidance for the pressing block, ensuring that the pressing block always moves in the predetermined direction during the die-casting process. This can improve the accuracy of die-casting, allowing the pressing block to accurately act on the target area and reduce errors. At the same time, the guide assembly enhances the stability of the pressing block's movement, preventing it from deflecting or shaking during operation, ensuring the smooth progress of the die-casting operation, and thus improving product quality and production efficiency.

[0027] In one embodiment of the present application, the guide assembly includes: a first correction fixing plate, on which a plurality of second guide holes are arranged, and the pressing blocks of the plurality of die-casting components are correspondingly inserted into the plurality of second guide holes, and each of the second guide holes is used to guide the movement direction of the corresponding pressing block.

[0028] In the above example, the second guide hole ensures that the pressure block always moves in the correct direction, so that the pressure block can accurately act on the die-casting area to avoid deviations, thereby ensuring the dimensional accuracy and surface flatness of the product. Secondly, during the die-casting process, the pressure block may be affected by various external forces, and the second guide hole can effectively limit the range of motion of the pressure block to prevent it from shaking or shifting, ensuring the stability of the die-casting operation. Furthermore, when the pressure block needs to be inspected or replaced, the position of the pressure block can be quickly located through the second guide hole, which is convenient for staff to operate and reduces maintenance costs. Finally, this design also improves the reliability and durability of the entire die-casting module, extends the service life of the equipment, and provides strong guarantees for the company's production.

[0029] In one embodiment of the present application, a plurality of equal-height columns are provided on the side of the first correction fixing plate facing the workbench, the plurality of equal-height columns have equal heights in the up and down directions, and the plurality of equal-height columns are suitable for abutting against the surface of the workbench.

[0030] In the above example, by setting up multiple equal-height columns, a stable and uniform benchmark can be provided for the die-casting operation, which can improve the stability of product quality, the stability of product quality, and the versatility of the equipment, thereby reducing production costs.

[0031] In one embodiment of the present application, the guide assembly also includes: a second correction fixing plate, the second correction fixing plate is located on the side of the first correction fixing plate away from the workbench, the second correction fixing plate is spaced apart from the first correction fixing plate in the up and down directions, a plurality of third guide holes are arranged on the second correction fixing plate, a plurality of the second guide holes correspond one-to-one to a plurality of the third guide holes, a plurality of the pressure blocks are also correspondingly inserted into the third guide holes, and the third guide holes are used to guide the movement direction of the pressure blocks.

[0032] In the above example, by providing the second correction fixing plate, the deviation or shaking of the pressing block during the die-casting process can be reduced, the dimensional accuracy and surface flatness of the product can be improved, and the continuity and stability of production can be ensured.

[0033] In one embodiment of the present application, the thickness of the second correction fixing plate is greater than the thickness of the first correction fixing plate.

[0034] In the above example, the thicker second correction fixing plate can provide stronger structural stability, better guide the movement of the pressing block, and reduce deformation caused by external forces. At the same time, it can withstand greater pressure, ensure more reliable guiding effect during the die-casting process, improve die-casting accuracy and product quality, and extend the service life of the guide component.

[0035] In one embodiment of the present application, the die-casting module further includes: a controller, which is used to control the plurality of die-casting components and enable each of the die-casting components to perform die-casting actions independently, or, the die-casting module further includes: a control component, which includes: an integrated fixed plate and a plurality of control units, wherein the plurality of control units are fixed on the integrated fixed plate at intervals, and the plurality of control units are used to control the actions of the plurality of die-casting components one by one.

[0036] In the above examples, the die-casting module may be provided with an integrated controller or a control component, so that a plurality of die-casting components can be independently controlled, and the control effect is good.

[0037] In one embodiment of the present application, the die-casting component includes a sensor, which obtains flatness information within a die-casting area corresponding to the die-casting component, and the sensor is installed on the lower side of the controller or on the lower side of the control unit.

[0038] In the above example, this layout allows the sensor to be closely integrated with the control part, and can transmit the flatness information to the control unit for processing more quickly, improving the response speed of the system. On the other hand, it is convenient for overall wiring and space utilization, making the die-casting module structure more compact. At the same time, installing the sensor close to the control part also facilitates unified maintenance and management, reducing maintenance costs. In addition, it can ensure the stable operation of the sensor, provide reliable data for accurate control of the flatness of the die-casting area, and improve product quality.

[0039] In one embodiment of the present application, the die-casting equipment further comprises a housing, and the plurality of die-casting components are installed in the housing.

[0040] In the above example, installing the die-casting components in the housing can effectively prevent dust, impurities and other contaminants in the external environment from entering the die-casting components, reduce failures and damage caused by pollution, and extend the service life of the equipment. Secondly, the housing can prevent operators from accidentally contacting high-speed moving die-casting components during work, reducing safety risks. Furthermore, the housing can reduce the impact of external factors such as temperature and humidity on the die-casting components, ensure that the die-casting operation is carried out under relatively stable conditions, and improve the stability of product quality. Finally, the housing makes the entire die-casting equipment more neat and beautiful, and also facilitates centralized management and maintenance of the equipment, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0054] The embodiments of the present application are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present application, and cannot be understood as limiting the present application.

Thus, features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the present application, "multiple" means two or more, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0056] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0057] Unless otherwise specified, all embodiments and optional embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other to form a new technical solution.

[0058] Unless otherwise specified, all technical features and optional technical features of this application can be combined with each other to form a new technical solution.

[0059] At present, from the perspective of market development, the application of power batteries is becoming more and more extensive. Power batteries are not only used in energy storage power systems such as hydropower, thermal power, wind power and solar power stations, but also widely used in electric vehicles such as electric bicycles, electric motorcycles, electric cars, as well as military equipment and aerospace and other fields. With the continuous expansion of the application field of power batteries, the market demand is also constantly expanding.

[0060] In power batteries, for example, the battery case plays a vital role as a key protective structure of the power battery. It is usually made of high-strength materials, has good sealing and impact resistance, and can effectively protect the internal battery pack from the influence of the external environment. Another example is the end plate in the battery case: located at both ends of the battery case, it is used to fix the battery module and play a supporting and limiting role. The end plate must have good rigidity and precision to ensure the accurate installation position of the battery module and ensure the normal operation of the battery system. There are other structural parts with protection, support or limitation in the power battery, which will not be described one by one in this application.

[0061] In the prior art, there may be some problems in the die-casting and leveling process of the above-mentioned structural parts, resulting in poor results. For example, in the die-casting process, due to unreasonable mold design or inaccurate die-casting parameter control, the flatness of the structural parts may not meet the design requirements. For example, some thinner battery covers still have local unevenness after leveling, which affects the assembly accuracy and appearance quality of the battery.

[0062] In order to alleviate the above-mentioned problems, the die-casting equipment of the present application can independently die-cast different areas of the workpiece through each die-casting component, and can die-cast the workpiece according to the actual conditions of different areas. For example, different areas can be die-casted with different strengths and different knocking frequencies, which can control product quality more accurately. It can also perform specific die-casting according to the characteristics of different areas, which can ensure that weak parts are die-cast with appropriate strength to avoid excessive or insufficient die-casting, thereby improving the overall strength and stability of the product. In addition, reasonable allocation of strength and frequency can reduce unnecessary repetitive operations and adjustment time, making the production process smoother, thereby improving production efficiency. Through precise die-casting, material waste and scrap rate can be reduced, while the service life of the mold can be extended and production costs can be reduced.

[0063] It should be noted that the above-mentioned workpiece can be a structural part related to a power battery that needs to be die-cast or flattened, or a structural part of other equipment or other fields that needs to be die-cast or flattened, and this application does not limit it.

[0064] Combination Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a die-casting device 100 according to an embodiment, wherein a local structure is cut away.

[0065] Combination Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 FIG. 1 is an exploded view of a die casting apparatus 100 according to an embodiment.

[0066] In one embodiment of the present application, a die-casting device 100 is provided. The die-casting device 100 includes a workbench 1 and a die-casting module 2. The die-casting module 2 can be movably arranged above the workbench 1 and is suitable for die-casting a workpiece 10 placed on the workbench 1. The die-casting module 2 includes a plurality of die-casting components 20, and each die-casting component 20 can independently die-cast different areas of the workpiece 10.

[0067] For example, the die-casting module 2 can be installed on the workbench 1 through a moving module, and the moving module can, for example, drive the die-casting module 2 to move up and down, left and right, and forward and backward. The moving module is installed on the workbench 1, and the die-casting module 2 is installed at the free end of the moving module. The dumb film module can die-cast the workpiece 10 on the workbench 1 through the movement of the moving module. Among them, the moving module can also only drive the die-casting module 2 to move up and down, and this application does not limit this.

[0068] Exemplarily, the die-casting module 2 can also be installed at the free end of the robotic arm. For example, the workbench 1 and the robotic arm are both installed on the ground, and the die-casting module 2 is installed at the free end of the robotic arm. The dumb film module realizes the die-casting of the workpiece 10 on the workbench 1 through the movement of the robotic arm.

[0069] For example, the plurality of die-casting components 20 may be arranged in a matrix, or the plurality of die-casting components 20 may be a plurality of rings arranged around the same center of a circle.

[0070] Exemplarily, the degree of tortuosity of different areas of each workpiece 10 is different. Therefore, the die-casting operation content required when the die-casting component 20 die-casts different areas of the workpiece 10 is preferably different. In the present application, each die-casting component 20 can independently die-cast different areas of the workpiece 10. In this way, the workpiece 10 can be die-cast according to the actual conditions of different areas. For example, different areas can be die-cast with different strengths and different knocking frequencies, which can more accurately control product quality. Specific die-casting can also be performed according to the characteristics of different areas, ensuring that weak parts are die-cast with appropriate strength to avoid excessive or insufficient die-casting, thereby improving the overall strength and stability of the product. In addition, reasonable allocation of strength and frequency can reduce unnecessary repetitive operations and adjustment time, making the production process smoother, thereby improving production efficiency. Through precise die-casting, material waste and scrap rate can be reduced, while the service life of the mold can be extended, and the production cost of the enterprise can be reduced.

[0071] In the above example, each die-casting component 20 can independently die-cast different areas of the workpiece 10, and can die-cast the workpiece 10 according to the actual conditions of different areas. For example, different areas can be die-cast with different strengths and different knocking frequencies, which can more accurately control product quality. Specific die-casting can also be performed according to the characteristics of different areas, ensuring that weak parts are die-cast with appropriate strength to avoid excessive or insufficient die-casting, thereby improving the overall strength and stability of the product. In addition, reasonable allocation of strength and frequency can reduce unnecessary repetitive operations and adjustment time, making the production process smoother, thereby improving production efficiency. Through precise die-casting, material waste and scrap rate can be reduced, while the service life of the mold can be extended, reducing the company's production costs.

[0072] In one embodiment of the present application, the die-casting component 20 includes: a pressing block 21, a sensor 22 and a driving member 23. The sensor 22 obtains flatness information in the die-casting area corresponding to the die-casting component 20; the driving member 23 controls the pressing block 21 to flatten the die-casting area according to the flatness information.

[0073] That is to say, in the die-casting operation, the sensor 22 can continuously and accurately obtain the flatness information in the die-casting area corresponding to the die-casting component 20, and the driving part 23 can quickly respond according to the information transmitted by the sensor 22, for example, it can adjust the die-casting force and knocking frequency on the surface of the workpiece 10 in real time, and control the pressing block 21 to level the uneven die-casting area with a high degree of automation, without too much manual intervention, and with a high degree of automation. This not only greatly improves the product quality, effectively avoids product defects caused by unevenness, makes the product appearance more beautiful, and the performance more stable and reliable, but also greatly improves production efficiency. The automated monitoring and leveling process reduces the time and cost of manual operation, avoids repeated operations caused by human errors, and makes production smoother and more efficient. At the same time, the precise leveling operation reduces unnecessary wear on the die-casting component 20, extends the service life of the die-casting component 20, and reduces the equipment maintenance cost.

[0074] In the above example, the die-casting component 20 has a high degree of automation, which can improve production efficiency and product leveling quality, reduce necessary wear on the die-casting component 20, extend the service life of the die-casting component 20, and reduce equipment maintenance costs.

[0075] In one embodiment of the present application, the driving member 23 is arranged above the pressing block 21, and an elastic member 24 is also arranged between the driving member 23 and the pressing block 21. The elastic member 24 can play a buffering role. When the driving member 23 controls the pressing block 21 to perform the die-casting operation, the elastic member 24 can absorb and disperse the impact force, avoid damage to the pressing block 21 and the driving member 23 due to the instantaneous strong impact, and extend the service life of the die-casting component 20. Secondly, the elastic member 24 can make the pressure of the pressing block 21 more evenly distributed in the die-casting area, ensuring that areas with different flatness can get just the right pressure, thereby improving the quality and consistency of the product. Furthermore, the stability of the system is enhanced. Even in the face of complex die-casting tasks, the elastic member 24 can help the pressing block 21 better adapt to various situations and ensure the stable progress of the die-casting operation. Finally, this design also provides convenience for subsequent maintenance and adjustment, reducing maintenance costs.

[0076] In the above example, by providing the elastic member 24 between the driving member 23 and the pressing block 21, the service life of the die-casting assembly 20 can be extended, the quality and consistency of the product can be improved, and the maintenance cost can be reduced.

[0077] In one embodiment of the present application, the elastic member 24 includes a spring. The spring can provide good elastic buffering, effectively reduce the impact force between the driving member 23 and the pressing block 21, and protect the die-casting assembly 20. At the same time, the spring has low cost and stable performance, ensures that the pressure of the pressing block 21 is evenly distributed, improves the die-casting accuracy and product quality, and can provide a strong guarantee for the stable and efficient development of the die-casting operation.

[0078] In the above example, the cost can be reduced and the stability of the die-casting component 20 can be improved by providing a spring.

[0079] In one embodiment of the present application, a spring fixing column 25 is connected below the driving member 23 . The spring fixing column 25 has a mounting groove opening downward, and the spring is installed in the mounting groove.

[0080] The spring fixing column 25 provides a stable installation position for the spring, ensuring that the spring will not deviate during operation, so that the elastic force can always act on the pressure block 21 along the predetermined direction, thereby improving the stability and accuracy of the die-casting operation. On the other hand, the design of the mounting groove makes the installation and replacement of the spring more convenient and quick. When maintaining or replacing the spring, the staff can easily take the spring out of or put it in the mounting groove, which greatly saves time and labor costs. At the same time, the mounting groove with a downward opening can also effectively prevent the spring from accidentally falling off during operation, further improving the safety and reliability of the die-casting assembly 20. In addition, this design also helps to protect the spring from the influence of the external environment, prolong the service life of the spring, thereby reducing the maintenance cost of the entire die-casting system.

[0081] In the above example, by setting the spring fixing column 25, a stable installation position can be provided for the spring, thereby improving the stability and accuracy of the die-casting operation. At the same time, the downward-opening installation groove can effectively prevent the spring from accidentally falling off during operation, further improving the safety and reliability of the die-casting component 20.

[0082] In one embodiment of the present application, the die-casting module 2 also includes: a spring fixing plate 30, on which a plurality of first guide holes 31 are arranged, and the elastic parts 24 of the plurality of die-casting components 20 correspond one by one to the plurality of first guide holes 31, respectively, and each first guide hole 31 is used to guide the deformation direction of the corresponding elastic part 24.

[0083] In the above example, the first guide hole 31 can accurately guide the deformation direction of the elastic member 24, ensuring that each elastic member 24 can function in a stable and consistent manner during operation, so that the pressure applied by the pressure block 21 to the die-casting area is more uniform, thereby effectively improving the quality and consistency of the product. Secondly, by guiding the deformation direction of the elastic member 24, irregular distortion or displacement of the elastic member 24 during operation is avoided, the smooth progress of the die-casting operation is ensured, and product defects caused by unstable factors are reduced. Furthermore, when the elastic member 24 needs to be inspected or replaced, the first guide hole 31 can be used as a clear positioning mark, allowing the staff to quickly and accurately find the corresponding elastic member 24, greatly improving maintenance efficiency.

[0084] In one embodiment of the present application, the pressing block 21 has a first channel 211 penetrating the pressing block 21 in the up-down direction, and the sensor 22 is located above the pressing block 21 and opposite to the first channel 211 .

[0085] This design in the above example enables the sensor 22 to obtain information about the die-casting area more directly and accurately. Through the first channel 211, the sensor 22 can detect key data such as the flatness of the die-casting area without hindrance, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of the detection. Secondly, the spatial layout is optimized. Setting the sensor 22 at this position does not take up additional space, but can also fit closely with the pressure block 21, making the entire die-casting assembly 20 more compact and efficient. Furthermore, it facilitates maintenance and adjustment. If the sensor 22 fails or needs to be calibrated, this relatively fixed and clear position relationship is convenient for the staff to operate and reduces maintenance costs. Finally, it helps to improve production efficiency. The precise position and channel design of the sensor 22 can quickly feedback the situation in the die-casting area, so that the drive 23 can timely control the pressure block 21 for adjustment, thereby speeding up the production process.

[0086] In one embodiment of the present application, the driver 23 has a second channel 231 that is opposite to the first channel 211 in the upper and lower directions, and the sensor 22 is located above the driver 23. On the one hand, this design further optimizes the spatial layout, making the entire die-casting assembly 20 more compact and reasonable. The sensor 22 can obtain information more efficiently above the driver 23 and transmit it to the driver 23 in a timely manner, thereby speeding up the response speed. On the other hand, through the relative channels, the detection path of the sensor 22 is more direct, thereby improving the detection accuracy. At the same time, it also facilitates the maintenance and inspection of the sensor 22 and the driver 23. The staff can locate the problem more quickly, reduce maintenance costs, ensure the stable and efficient operation of the die-casting operation, and improve product quality and production efficiency.

[0087] Exemplarily, a control unit 52 is disposed above the driving member 23 , and the sensor 22 is mounted on the control unit 52 .

[0088] In the above example, by constructing a second channel 231 on the driving member 23 that is opposite to the first channel 211 in upper and lower directions, the spatial layout can be further optimized, making the entire die-casting assembly 20 more compact and reasonable, and also accelerating the response speed and improving product quality and production efficiency.

[0089] In one embodiment of the present application, the driving member 23 includes a hydraulic cylinder.

[0090] In the above example, the hydraulic cylinder can provide a strong and stable driving force, ensuring that the pressure block 21 can apply sufficient and uniform pressure to different die-casting areas, effectively improving the quality of die-casting. Secondly, the hydraulic cylinder has good response speed and precision control capabilities, and can quickly adjust the output force according to the feedback of the sensor 22 to achieve precise die-casting. Furthermore, the hydraulic cylinder has high reliability and durability, and can maintain stable performance during long-term die-casting operations, reducing the cost of equipment maintenance and replacement. Finally, its structure is relatively compact, and it can cooperate well with other parts of the entire die-casting assembly 20, saving installation space and improving space utilization at the production site.

[0091] In one embodiment of the present application, the sensor 22 is a laser sensor 22 .

[0092] In the above example, the laser sensor 22 has extremely high measurement accuracy and can accurately capture the slight unevenness of the die-casting area to ensure excellent product quality. Secondly, it has a fast response and can transmit data to the driver 23 in a timely manner, so that the pressure block 21 can be quickly adjusted to improve production efficiency. Furthermore, non-contact measurement avoids damage to the die-casting area, reduces wear and tear, and prolongs service life. Finally, it has strong stability and can operate reliably even in complex environments, ensuring that the die-casting operation is carried out continuously and stably.

[0093] In one embodiment of the present application, the die-casting module 2 further includes: a guide assembly 40 , and the guide assembly 40 is used to guide the pressing block 21 .

[0094] In the above example, the guide assembly 40 provides accurate motion guidance for the pressing block 21, ensuring that the pressing block 21 always moves in a predetermined direction during the die-casting process. This can improve the accuracy of die-casting, allowing the pressing block 21 to accurately act on the target area and reduce errors. At the same time, the guide assembly 40 enhances the stability of the movement of the pressing block 21, preventing it from deflecting or shaking during operation, ensuring the smooth progress of the die-casting operation, and thus improving product quality and production efficiency.

[0095] In one embodiment of the present application, the guide assembly 40 includes: a first correction fixing plate 41, a plurality of second guide holes 411 are arranged on the first correction fixing plate 41, and the pressing blocks 21 of the plurality of die-casting components 20 are correspondingly inserted into the plurality of second guide holes 411, and each second guide hole 411 is used to guide the movement direction of the corresponding pressing block 21.

[0096] In the above example, the second guide hole 411 ensures that the pressure block 21 always moves in the correct direction, so that the pressure block 21 can accurately act on the die-casting area to avoid deviation, thereby ensuring the dimensional accuracy and surface flatness of the product. Secondly, during the die-casting process, the pressure block 21 may be affected by various external forces, and the second guide hole 411 can effectively limit the range of motion of the pressure block 21 to prevent it from shaking or shifting, thereby ensuring the stable progress of the die-casting operation. Furthermore, when the pressure block 21 needs to be inspected or replaced, the position of the pressure block 21 can be quickly located through the second guide hole 411, which is convenient for the staff to operate and reduces maintenance costs. Finally, this design also improves the reliability and durability of the entire die-casting module 2, extends the service life of the equipment, and provides a strong guarantee for the company's production.

[0097] In one embodiment of the present application, a plurality of equal-height columns 412 are provided on the side of the first correction fixing plate 41 facing the workbench 1 , the plurality of equal-height columns 412 have equal heights in the up and down directions, and the plurality of equal-height columns 412 are all suitable for abutting against the surface of the workbench 1 .

[0098] The equal height columns 412 are equal in the vertical direction, providing a stable and unified benchmark for the die-casting operation, so that products of different batches remain consistent in die-casting height, improving the stability of product quality. Secondly, the accuracy of the die-casting process is enhanced. With a clear reference plane, the pressing block 21 can more accurately control the pressing depth and force when performing the die-casting operation, reduce the error caused by height uncertainty, and improve the accuracy and reliability of the product. Furthermore, it facilitates adjustment and calibration during the production process. When the die-casting parameters need to be adjusted, the reference plane can be used as a reference to adjust quickly and accurately, thereby improving production efficiency. Finally, this design also helps to improve the versatility of the equipment. Different die-casting tasks can be adjusted based on this reference plane to meet the production needs of various products and reduce production costs.

[0099] Exemplarily, three or more equal-height columns 412 may be provided, and the present application does not limit the number of equal-height columns 412 .

[0100] In the above example, by setting a plurality of equal-height columns 412, a stable and uniform benchmark can be provided for the die-casting operation, thereby improving the stability of product quality, the stability of product quality, the versatility of the equipment, and reducing production costs.

[0101] In one embodiment of the present application, the guide assembly 40 also includes: a second correction fixing plate 42, the second correction fixing plate 42 is located on the side of the first correction fixing plate 41 away from the workbench 1, the second correction fixing plate 42 is spaced apart from the first correction fixing plate 41 in the up and down directions, and a plurality of third guide holes 421 are provided on the second correction fixing plate 42, the plurality of second guide holes 411 correspond one-to-one to the plurality of third guide holes 421, and the plurality of pressure blocks 21 are also correspondingly penetrated in the third guide holes 421 one-to-one, and the third guide holes 421 are used to guide the movement direction of the pressure blocks 21.

[0102] The second correction fixing plate 42 can cooperate with the first correction fixing plate 41 to guide the pressing block 21 from both the upper and lower directions to ensure that the pressing block 21 always remains on the correct track during the movement, reducing any possible deviation or shaking. This dual guidance allows the pressing block 21 to act more accurately on the die-casting area, greatly improving the dimensional accuracy and surface flatness of the product and reducing the defective rate. Secondly, during the die-casting operation, the pressing block 21 will be subjected to forces from all directions, and the presence of the second correction fixing plate 42 and the third guide hole 421 provides additional support and constraints for the pressing block 21. Even in the high-speed and high-pressure die-casting process, the pressing block 21 can operate stably, ensuring the continuity and stability of production.

[0103] In the above example, by providing the second correction fixing plate 42, the deviation or shaking of the pressing block 21 during the die-casting process can be reduced, the dimensional accuracy and surface flatness of the product can be improved, and the continuity and stability of production can be ensured.

[0104] In one embodiment of the present application, the thickness of the second correction fixing plate 42 is greater than the thickness of the first correction fixing plate 41 .

[0105] In the above example, the thicker second correction fixing plate 42 can provide stronger structural stability, better guide the movement of the pressing block 21, and reduce deformation caused by external forces. At the same time, it can withstand greater pressure, ensure more reliable guiding effect during the die-casting process, improve die-casting accuracy and product quality, and extend the service life of the guide assembly 40.

[0106] In one embodiment of the present application, the die-casting module 2 also includes: a controller, which is used to control multiple die-casting components 20 and enable each die-casting component 20 to perform independent die-casting actions, or, the die-casting module 2 also includes: a control component 50, the control component 50 includes: an integrated fixed plate 51 and multiple control units 52, the multiple control units 52 are fixed on the integrated fixed plate 51 at intervals, and the multiple control units 52 are used to control the actions of multiple die-casting components 20 one by one.

[0107] For example, the control structure of the die-casting module 2 can be an integrated controller, for example, the controller can be composed of multiple control units 52 integrated on an integrated circuit board. The integrated design saves space and makes the entire die-casting system more compact and efficient. At the same time, it also reduces the complexity of wiring, reduces the risk of signal interference, and improves the performance and reliability of the system.

[0108] Exemplarily, the die-casting module 2 also includes: a control component 50, the control component 50 includes: an integrated fixed plate 51 and a plurality of control units 52, the plurality of control units 52 are fixed on the integrated fixed plate 51 at intervals, and the plurality of control units 52 are used to control the actions of the plurality of die-casting components 20 in a one-to-one correspondence. The plurality of control units 52 are fixed at intervals on the integrated fixed plate 51, so that each control unit 52 can independently and accurately control the actions of the corresponding die-casting components 20. This ensures that different die-casting areas obtain the most suitable die-casting strength and frequency, greatly improving the consistency and precision of product quality. Secondly, the independent control method enhances the flexibility of the system. When the demand of a die-casting area changes, the corresponding control unit 52 can be adjusted separately without affecting the die-casting operation of other areas, adapting to changes in different products and production requirements. Furthermore, the spaced arrangement is conducive to heat dissipation, reduces the risk of failure of the control unit 52 due to overheating, and improves the stability and reliability of the system. Finally, this design also facilitates maintenance and overhaul. The staff can quickly locate the control unit 52 with problems, carry out targeted repairs or replacements, reduce maintenance costs, and improve production efficiency.

[0109] In the above example, the die-casting module 2 may be provided with an integrated controller, or may be provided with a control component 50, so as to independently control the plurality of die-casting components 20, and the control effect is good.

[0110] In one embodiment of the present application, the die-casting component 20 includes a sensor 22 , which obtains flatness information within a die-casting area corresponding to the die-casting component 20 . The sensor 22 is installed on the lower side of the controller or on the lower side of the control unit 52 .

[0111] In the above example, this layout allows the sensor 22 to be closely integrated with the control part, and can transmit the flatness information to the control unit 52 for processing more quickly, thereby improving the response speed of the system. On the other hand, it is convenient for overall wiring and space utilization, making the die-casting module 2 more compact. At the same time, installing the sensor 22 close to the control part also facilitates unified maintenance and management, reducing maintenance costs. In addition, it can ensure that the sensor 22 works stably, providing reliable data for accurately controlling the flatness of the die-casting area and improving product quality.

[0112] In one embodiment of the present application, the die-casting equipment 100 further includes a housing 60 , and the plurality of die-casting assemblies 20 are all installed in the housing 60 .

[0113] In the above example, installing the die-casting component 20 in the housing 60 can effectively prevent dust, impurities and other contaminants in the external environment from entering the die-casting component 20, reduce failures and damages caused by pollution, and extend the service life of the equipment. Secondly, the housing 60 can prevent operators from accidentally contacting the high-speed moving die-casting component 20 during work, reducing safety risks. Furthermore, the housing 60 can reduce the impact of external factors such as temperature and humidity on the die-casting component 20, ensure that the die-casting operation is carried out under relatively stable conditions, and improve the stability of product quality. Finally, the housing 60 makes the entire die-casting equipment 100 more neat and beautiful, and also facilitates centralized management and maintenance of the equipment, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0114] In one embodiment of the present application, the die-casting equipment 100 can increase the number of die-casting components 20 according to the size of the workpiece 10, so that the die-casting equipment 100 can arrange different numbers of die-casting components 20 according to workpieces 10 of different sizes, thereby better realizing the versatility of the die-casting equipment 100.

[0115] In one embodiment of the present application, the sensor 22 is a laser probe, which can effectively detect the deformation amounts of different degrees in different areas of the product. The movable pressing block 21 applies knocking correction actions of different intensities and frequencies according to the deformation amounts of different degrees in different areas of the workpiece 10 detected by laser, so as to ensure that each correction point is controlled separately. Through preliminary data collection and exploration, a force curve can be established according to the data to ensure the effectiveness of the correction force. After correction, re-measurement of the laser detection points can ensure that each product is calibrated in place.

[0116] In addition, flexible correction enables the establishment of a corresponding deformation correction force model curve after data is collected. That is, for different degrees of deformation, the optimal or better tapping force and different frequencies of tapping correction actions can be constructed, thus paving the way for intelligent correction.

[0117] In a specific example of the present application, there are three equal-height columns 412 on the tooling for establishing a reference surface, which is based on the three-point positioning of the tooling; the product reference surface is established by pre-tightening; the laser probe in the control unit 52 is enabled, and the deformation of the detection surface is calculated by the reflection of light; according to the deformation of different monitoring points of the product, the control unit 52 will apply different forces to different correction columns for correction, and correct the number of knocks and the size of the force; after the knocking is completed, the laser probe detection is started again to verify the correction effect.

[0118] The correction column in the above example is the pressing block 21. By way of example, the pressing block 21 may be a cylinder or a prism, such as a quadrangular prism, a pentagonal prism, etc., which is not limited in the present application.

[0119] The following describes the working process of the die-casting equipment 100 according to a specific embodiment of the present application.

[0120] 1. After the product is placed on the workbench 1, the die-casting equipment 100 is started, and three equal-height columns 412 press the product to establish a reference surface;

[0121] 2. The laser probe in a single control unit 52 emits laser light through a transmitter, and the laser light reflects on the surface of the product. The control unit 52 calculates the deformation state of the product in the detection area;

[0122] 3. Then the die casting assembly 20 applies different forces to different deformations, and the die casting device 100 applies the force to the spring and transmits it to the pressing block 21 through the driving member 23, so as to prevent the rigid collision caused by excessive force from damaging the product;

[0123] 4. After the set number of knocks, start the laser probe for detection again. If the flatness still does not meet the standard locally, continue to calibrate the local area according to the program settings. During this period, the qualified areas will not be corrected with force, but the correction column can be started to pre-tighten the areas that have met the standards to prevent the overall deformation of the product when knocking locally. You can also not enable this function and directly release stress without local pre-tightening.

[0124] 5. The equipment control unit 52 records the calibration data. Since the characteristics of the products are different, the effective number of knocks can be explored through the previous data for different products, and then the program can be set to knock in place at one time, thereby improving the calibration efficiency and calibration effect.
