[0034] Example:

[0035] See also Figure 1-7 A compact automobile EPP steering wheel foaming mold comprises a mold lower shell 1, two lock buckles 2 are fixedly connected to the front end of the mold lower shell 1, an opening and closing mechanism 3 is fixedly connected to the left and right walls of the inner cavity of the mold lower shell 1, an upper mold shell 4 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the opening and closing mechanism 3, an injection port 5 is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the inner cavity at the upper end of the upper mold shell 4, and two locking mechanisms 6 are fixedly connected to the front end of the upper mold shell 4.

[0036] In this solution, the mold lower shell 1 and the mold upper shell 4 are connected together by the opening and closing mechanism 3, two locking mechanisms 6 and two lock buckles 2, and EPP is filled into the cavity formed between the mold lower shell 1 and the mold upper shell 4 through the injection port 5.

[0037] See also Figure 3-5The opening and closing mechanism 3 includes a rocker 31, the outer surface of the rocker 31 is rotatably connected to the inner surface of the right end of the mold lower shell 1, the right end of the rocker 31 is fixedly connected to a transmission assembly 32, the outer surface of the transmission assembly 32 is fixedly connected to an opening and closing assembly 33, the upper end of the opening and closing assembly 33 is fixedly connected to a clamping plate 34, the outer surface of the rocker 31 is fixedly connected to a positioning assembly 35, the transmission assembly 32 includes a connecting rod 321, the left end of the connecting rod 321 is fixedly connected to the right end of the rocker 31, the outer surface of the connecting rod 321 is fixedly connected to a connecting rod 322, and the inner surface of the connecting rod 322 is fixedly connected to a transmission rod 323. The combining component 33 includes a driving plate 331, the inner surface of the driving plate 331 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the transmission rod 323, the left end of the driving plate 331 is fixedly connected to a cylindrical slider 332, the positioning component 35 includes a positioning plate 351, the left end of the positioning plate 351 is fixedly connected to the left wall of the inner cavity of the mold lower shell 1, the right end of the positioning plate 351 is provided with a Y-shaped slide groove 352, the right end of the positioning plate 351 is provided with two positioning holes 353, the outer surface of the cylindrical slider 332 is slidably connected to the inner surface of the Y-shaped slide groove 352, and the outer surface of the transmission rod 323 is slidably connected to the inner surface of the Y-shaped slide groove 352.

[0038] The present invention allows the connecting rod 321 to rotate by shaking the rocker 31. The rotation of the connecting rod 321 will drive the connecting rod 322, so that the transmission rod 323 and the cylindrical slider 332 can slide upward together in the inner cavity of the Y-shaped slot 352. At the beginning, the two slide upward along the vertical section of the Y-shaped slot 352 at the same time to lift the barrel cover 4. When the cylindrical slider 332 slides to the uppermost end of the vertical section of the Y-shaped slot 352, the two ends of the transmission rod 323 are just at the intersection of the vertical section and the arc section of the Y-shaped slot 352. At this time, as the rocker 31 continues to shake, the two ends of the transmission rod 323 will slide upward along the arc section of the Y-shaped slot 352 until they slide to the top of the arc section of the Y-shaped slot 352. At this time, the mold upper shell 4 will be flipped over, the mold lower shell 1 and the mold upper shell 4 will be opened, and the rocker 31 will be shaken in the opposite direction, and the mold lower shell 1 and the mold upper shell 4 will be closed.

[0039] See also Figure 6-7 The locking mechanism 6 includes a connecting plate 61, the rear end of the connecting plate 61 is fixedly connected to the front end of the mold upper shell 4, the lower end of the connecting plate 61 is fixedly connected with a placement groove 62, and the inner cavity of the placement groove 62 is slidably connected with a locking component 63, and the locking component 63 includes two locking tongues 631, and the front and rear ends of the two locking tongues 631 are fixedly connected with two sliding bars 632, the ends of the two locking tongues 631 close to each other are fixedly connected with four springs 633, and the ends of the two locking tongues 631 close to each other are fixedly connected with a telescopic rod 634.

[0040] This solution uses two locking tongues 631 to be stuck in the lower ends of the two lock buckles 2, so that the mold lower shell 1 and the mold upper shell 4 can be tightly fitted together, thereby improving the sealing of the mold. When the mold upper shell 4 is closed with the mold lower shell 1 under the action of the opening and closing mechanism 3, the two locking tongues 631 will pass through the inner cavity of the two lock buckles 2. At the moment of passing through, due to the squeezing of the inner wall of the lock buckle 2, the two locking tongues 631 will approach each other in the inner cavity of the placement groove 62, which will cause the four springs 633 and the telescopic rod 634 to be compressed together. At the moment the two locking tongues 631 pass through the inner cavity of the two lock buckles 2, they will be stuck in the lower end of the lock buckle 2 under the action of the four springs 633 and the telescopic rod 634, so that the mold lower shell 1 and the mold upper shell 4 are tightly connected together.

[0041] Working principle: When the mold needs to be used, first shake the rocker 31 to rotate the connecting rod 321. The rotation of the connecting rod 321 will drive the connecting rod 322, so that the transmission rod 323 and the cylindrical slider 332 can slide upward together in the inner cavity of the Y-shaped slide groove 352. At the beginning, the two slide upward along the vertical section of the Y-shaped slide groove 352 at the same time to lift the barrel cover 4. When the cylindrical slider 332 slides to the uppermost end of the vertical section of the Y-shaped slide groove 352, the two ends of the transmission rod 323 are just at the intersection of the vertical section and the arc section of the Y-shaped slide groove 352. At this time, as the rocker 31 continues to shake, the two ends of the transmission rod 323 will slide upward along the arc section of the Y-shaped slide groove 352 until they slide to the top of the arc section of the Y-shaped slide groove 352. At this time, the mold upper shell 4 will be turned over, the mold lower shell 1 and the mold upper shell 4 will be opened, and the interior will be checked. Check for foreign matter and shake the joystick 31 in the opposite direction after the inspection to allow the two locking tongues 631 to pass through the inner cavity of the two lock buckles 2. At the moment of passing through, the two locking tongues 631 will be squeezed by the inner wall of the lock buckle 2, so that the two locking tongues 631 will be close to each other in the inner cavity of the placement groove 62, and the four springs 633 and the telescopic rod 634 will be compressed together. When the two locking tongues 631 pass through the inner cavity of the two lock buckles 2, they will be stuck at the lower end of the lock buckle 2 under the action of the four springs 633 and the telescopic rod 634, and the mold lower shell 1 and the mold upper shell 4 will be tightly connected together. At this time, EPP is injected into the internal cavity of the mold lower shell 1 and the mold upper shell 4 through the injection port 5. After cooling is completed, the two locking tongues 631 are squeezed inward and the joystick 31 is shaken at the same time to make the mold upper shell 4 flip over again. At this time, the EPP steering wheel model can be taken out for further processing.

[0042] The above is only a preferred specific implementation of the utility model; however, the protection scope of the utility model is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes according to the technical solution and improved ideas of the utility model within the technical scope disclosed by the utility model, which should be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
