In order to make the present application clear, elements not related to the description are omitted from the details of this specification.
[0058] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this application belongs. The terms used herein in the specification of this application are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit this application.
[0059] Some embodiments of the present application will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the absence of conflict, the following embodiments and features in the embodiments may be combined with each other.
[0060] The present application embodiment provides an injection mold (not shown), see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The injection mold includes a mold assembly 10. Plastic is injected into a metal semi-finished product 20 through the mold assembly 10 to achieve product processing. The outer side 22 and the inner side 21 of the metal semi-finished product 20 are respectively composed of metals of different materials.
[0061] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3The mold assembly 10 includes a first mold core 13, a second mold core 11, a cooling assembly 12, and an elastic assembly 14. The second mold core 11 and the first mold core 13 are arranged alternately along the first direction X, the second mold core 11 is located below the first mold core 13 along the first direction X, a part of the cooling assembly 12 passes through the first mold core 13 along the first direction X, and the elastic assembly 14 is arranged in the first mold core 13 and between the first mold core 13 and the cooling assembly 12. When the mold assembly 10 is working, the metal semi-finished product 20 is placed on the top of the second mold core 11 along the first direction X. The first mold core 13 moves along the first direction X under the action of external force, and the first mold core 13 drives the cooling component 12 to move closer to the second mold core 11. When the first mold core 13 and the second mold core 11 are in contact, the cooling component 12 is in contact with the inner side 21 of the metal semi-finished product 20 along the first direction X, so that the cooling component 12 cools the inner side 21 of the metal semi-finished product 20 to reduce the difference in deformation between the inner side 21 and the outer side 22, so as to achieve consistency in the forces exerted by different metals on the plastic, thereby improving product quality.
[0062] The first direction X is a vertical direction.
[0063] The first mold core 13 drives the cooling assembly 12 away from or close to the second mold core 11 under the action of external force, so as to facilitate the replacement of the metal semi-finished product 20 on the second mold core 11 and achieve the effect of continuous processing of the metal semi-finished product 20. The first mold core 13 also presses the finished product on the second mold core 11 under the action of external force to fix the metal semi-finished product 20.
[0064] The first mold core 13 is provided with a through groove 131 along the first direction X, and the cooling component 12 is movably inserted into the through groove 131 along the first direction X. The elastic component 14 is arranged in the through groove 131 and is located between the first mold core 13 and the cooling component 12. When the first mold core 13 is driven by an external force to move the cooling component 12 toward the second mold core 11 until the first mold core 13 contacts the second mold core 11 and the metal semi-finished product 20, the metal semi-finished product 20 supports the cooling component 12 protruding out of the through groove 131 in the through groove 131 to support the cooling component 12 to move relative to the first mold core 13 along the first direction X, so that the cooling component 12 moves from the outside of the through groove 131 to the inside of the through groove 131 and compresses the elastic component 14. The compressed elastic component 14 applies an elastic force along the first direction X to the cooling component 12, so that the cooling component 12 tends to move toward the metal semi-finished product 20, thereby increasing the pressure between the cooling component 12 and the metal semi-finished product 20, so as to reduce the gap between the cooling component 12 and the inner side 21 of the metal semi-finished product 20, so that the cooling component 12 is in full contact with the inner side 21 of the metal semi-finished product 20 along the first direction X, so as to improve the heat dissipation effect of the cooling component 12 on the inner side 21 of the metal semi-finished product 20, so as to achieve the purpose of reducing the difference in deformation of the two metals on the inner side 21 and the outer side 22.
[0065] In some embodiments, see Figure 4 The first mold core 13 and the second mold core 11 are respectively provided with a temperature regulating component 16, which is a temperature regulating pipeline 161. The temperature of the first mold core 13 and the second mold core 11 is regulated by introducing a temperature regulating medium such as hydraulic oil of different temperatures into the temperature regulating pipeline 161. Before the injection mold processes the semi-finished metal product 20, the temperature regulating medium is introduced into the first mold core 13 and the second mold core 11 respectively through the temperature regulating component 16, and the first mold core 13 and the second mold core 11 are heated and regulated to increase the temperature of the first mold core 13 and the second mold core 11, so that when the plastic is injected into the semi-finished metal product 20, the temperature of the plastic can be kept stable, which helps to reduce the risk of cold plastic causing the injection mold to be blocked, thereby achieving the purpose of improving the stability of product production. After the injection mold processes the metal semi-finished product 20 into a product, a temperature regulating medium is introduced into the first mold core 13 and the second mold core 11 respectively through the temperature regulating component 16, and the first mold core 13 and the second mold core 11 are cooled and regulated to reduce the temperature of the first mold core 13 and the second mold core 11, thereby cooling the product so that the plastic can be cooled quickly, thereby achieving the purpose of improving product production efficiency.
[0066] In other embodiments, the temperature adjustment component 16 is a heating wire and a semiconductor cooling sheet.
[0067] In some embodiments, see Figures 2 to 4A heat insulation component 17 is fixedly provided on the outer surface of the cooling component 12. The heat insulation component 17 is located between the first mold core 13 and the cooling component 12 in the through groove 131 to reduce the heat conduction effect between the first mold core 13 and the cooling component 12, thereby reducing the influence of the outside world on the temperature of the cooling component 12 to improve the cooling accuracy of the cooling component 12.
[0068] In some embodiments, the thermal insulation component 17 is a thermal insulation sleeve (not labeled) or a thermal insulation layer (not labeled) disposed on the outer surface of the cooling component 12 .
[0069] In some embodiments, see Figure 5 and Figure 6 The cooling assembly 12 includes a cooling block 121 inserted into the through slot 131. A protrusion 1211 is formed at one end of the cooling block 121 facing the second mold core 11 along the first direction X. The protrusion 1211 is partially located in the through slot 131. The end of the cooling block 121 away from the protrusion 1211 along the first direction X extends from the inside of the through slot 131 to the outside of the through slot 131. The first mold core 13 is also provided with a limiting portion 132. The limiting portion 132 is located in the end of the through slot 131 away from the second module. One end of the elastic assembly 14 along the first direction X is connected to the limiting portion 132, and the other end of the elastic assembly 14 along the first direction X is connected to the protrusion 1211 in the through slot 131. When the first mold core 13 is driven by an external force to move the cooling block 121 and the elastic component 14 along the first direction X close to the second mold core 11, and the metal semi-finished product 20 on the top of the second mold core 11 contacts and supports the cooling block 121, the cooling block 121 drives the protrusion 1211 to move relative to the first mold core 13 under the support of the metal semi-finished product 20, so that the protrusion 1211 moves from the outside of the through groove 131 to the inside of the through groove 131 and compresses the elastic component 14. The elastic component 14 applies an elastic force along the first direction X to the protrusion 1211, so that the protrusion 1211 drives the cooling block 121 to move close to the metal semi-finished product 20, thereby increasing the pressure between the cooling block 121 and the metal semi-finished product 20, so as to reduce the gap between the cooling component 12 and the inner side 21 of the metal semi-finished product 20, so as to achieve the effect of full contact between the cooling block 121 and the metal semi-finished product 20, and achieve the purpose of improving the cooling effect of the cooling block 121.
[0070] In some embodiments, see Figure 2The elastic component 14 includes at least two compression springs 141, and the at least two compression springs 141 are arranged in a ring shape. The portion of the cooling block 121 away from the protrusion 1211 along the first direction X is located between the at least two compression springs 141 in a ring shape. One end of each compression spring 141 along the first direction X is connected to the protrusion 1211 in the through groove 131, and the other end of each compression spring 141 along the first direction X is connected to the limiting portion 132. Through the arrangement of multiple compression springs 141, the compressed elastic component 14 can act uniformly on the protrusion 1211 along the first direction X, so that the protrusion 1211 drives the cooling block 121 to act uniformly on the metal semi-finished product 20, which helps to improve the uniformity of cooling the metal semi-finished product 20 by the cooling block 121.
[0071] In some embodiments, see Figure 3 and Figure 4 The mold assembly 10 further includes a water transport assembly 15, which is located on the side of the first mold core 13 away from the second mold core 11 along the first direction X. The water transport assembly 15 is connected to the cooling block 121 located outside the through groove 131, and a third through hole 151 and a fourth through hole 152 are provided at the bottom of the water transport assembly 15 along the first direction X. A cooling channel 1210 is provided in the cooling block 121, and a first through hole 1212 and a second through hole 1213 are provided on the side of the cooling block 121 away from the second mold core 11 along the first direction X, which are respectively connected to the cooling channel 1210. The first through hole 1212 is connected to the third through hole 151, and the second through hole 1213 is connected to the fourth through hole 152, so that the cooling medium (not shown) in the water transport assembly 15 flows from the third through hole 151 along the first through hole 1212 into the cooling channel 1210. The cooling medium flowing through the cooling channel 1210 flows from the second through hole 1213 along the fourth through hole 152 to the water transport component 15, so that the cooling medium circulates in the cooling block 121 and the cooling block 121 continuously cools the metal semi-finished product 20.
[0072] In some embodiments, the water transport component 15 is a pipe or a geometric component with a pipeline disposed therein.
[0073] In some embodiments, see Figure 3 and Figure 4, the projection of the water transport component 15 along the first direction X is located outside the through groove 131. When the first mold core 13 is moved away from the second mold core 11 along the first direction X by an external force, the water transport component 15 contacts the first mold core 13, so that the first mold core 13 supports the water transport component 15, so that the water transport component 15 limits the cooling block 121 along the first direction X, so as to reduce the risk of the cooling block 121 falling off from the first mold core 13 along the first direction X, and achieve the purpose of synchronous movement of the cooling block 121 and the first mold core 13. At the same time, the water transport component 15 and the cooling block 121 are detachably connected. When the cooling block 121 needs to be replaced, the water transport component 15 is separated from the cooling block 121, so that the cooling block 121 moves from the inside of the through groove 131 to the outside of the through groove 131 in the direction of the protrusion 1211 from the water transport component 15, so as to achieve the purpose of removing the cooling block 121 from the first mold core 13.
[0074] The working process of a mold assembly 10 of the present application is as follows: by placing a metal semi-finished product 20 on the second mold core 11, the first mold core 13 drives the cooling assembly 12 to move along the first direction X toward the second mold core 11 under the action of external force. When the first mold core 13 contacts the second mold core 11, the metal semi-finished product 20 on the second mold core 11 supports the cooling assembly 12 to move along the first direction X relative to the first mold core 13, and causes the cooling assembly 12 to compress the elastic assembly 14, so that the cooling assembly 12 has a tendency to move close to the inner side 21 of the metal semi-finished product 20 under the elastic action of the elastic assembly 14, so as to increase the pressure between the cooling block 121 and the metal semi-finished product 20, thereby reducing the gap between the cooling assembly 12 and the inner side 21 of the metal semi-finished product 20. The cooling medium is introduced into the cooling component 12 through the water transport component 15 so that the cooling medium in the cooling component 12 absorbs heat, and the cooling component 12 cools the metal on the inner side 21 of the metal semi-finished product 20 to adjust the temperature difference between the metal on the inner side 21 and the metal on the outer side 22 of the metal semi-finished product 20, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the deformation of different metals, so that the forces exerted by different metals on the plastic are consistent, thereby achieving the effect of improving product quality.
[0075] In addition, those skilled in the art should recognize that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present application, and are not intended to limit the present application. As long as they are within the essential scope of the present application, appropriate changes and modifications to the above embodiments are within the scope disclosed in the present application.
