[0002] During injection molding, the movable mold and the fixed mold are closed to form a pouring system and a cavity. When the mold is opened, the movable mold and the fixed mold are separated to take out the plastic product. In a molding mold with a partial internal structure, such as a plastic product with an internal thread, it also includes a molding insert that extends into the cavity. The molding insert is fixed to the output shaft of a driving motor and is driven by the driving motor to move toward the mold cavity and stop moving after reaching a predetermined position. After the molding is completed and the mold is opened, the driving motor is driven to move in the opposite direction to exit.

[0022] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the utility model provides a floating positioning device for in-mold injection molding inserts, including a bottom mold 1 and a top mold 2, a connecting component 8 is arranged inside the top mold 2, a mold core 3 is arranged on the outside of the connecting component 8 close to the bottom mold 1, a positioning component 4 is arranged inside the connecting component 8, one end of the positioning component 4 is connected to the connecting component 8, and the other end of the positioning component 4 passes through the connecting component 8 and extends to the outside of the top mold 2 and is connected to a driving motor 5;

[0024] The mold core 3 includes a movable insert 31 movably installed on one side of the connecting component 8, and an insert calibration pin 32 is fixedly connected to the side of the movable insert 31 close to the connecting component 8. The insert calibration pin 32 is movably inserted into the inside of the connecting component 8, and an insert positioning plug 33 is adsorbed on the side of the insert calibration pin 32 close to the connecting component 8. The insert positioning plug 33 is sealingly sleeved in the inside of the connecting component 8; due to the setting of the insert positioning plug 33, the movable insert 31 can be preliminarily positioned with the cooperation of the insert calibration pin 32, so that when the sealing movable plate 43 moves later, multiple movable inserts 31 can be tightened at the same time with the cooperation of the connecting hole 84, thereby achieving the effect of stably positioning the position of the movable insert 31.

[0025] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, a bottom mold cavity 6 is opened on one side of the bottom mold 1 close to the top mold 2, and a top mold cavity 7 is opened on one side of the top mold 2 close to the bottom mold 1. A molded workpiece 9 is injection molded inside the bottom mold cavity 6 and the top mold cavity 7 and outside the movable insert 31.

[0026] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the connecting component 8 includes a core body 81 fixedly installed in the middle of the top mold cavity 7, and a sealing cavity 82 is opened on the side of the core body 81 close to the bottom mold 1. A limit ring 85 is fixedly sleeved inside the sealing cavity 82, and the insert calibration pin 32 and the insert positioning plug 33 are sleeved in the sealing cavity 82 and are respectively located on the left and right sides of the limit ring 85; due to the setting of the sealing cavity 82, the movable insert 31 can be accurately positioned with the cooperation of the insert calibration pin 32 and the insert positioning plug 33, and it is also convenient to push the movable insert 31 after the mold is opened, so that it drives the molded workpiece 9 to separate from the top mold cavity 7, thereby achieving the effect of facilitating demolding.

[0027] like Figure 4 As shown, one end of the insert positioning plug 33 away from the insert positioning plug 33 is sealed and sleeved inside the sealing cavity 82, and one end of the insert positioning plug 33 close to the insert calibration pin 32 is movably sleeved inside the limiting ring 85; due to the setting of the limiting ring 85, the stability of the left and right ends of the insert positioning plug 33 can be improved with the cooperation of the sealing cavity 82, and the movement of the left end of the insert positioning plug 33 can be restricted, thereby avoiding the situation where the insert positioning plug 33 is completely separated from the sealing cavity 82.

[0028] like Figure 3 As shown, a limiting groove 83 is provided on the side of the core body 81 away from the bottom mold 1, and a connecting hole 84 is provided inside the core body 81. The two ends of the connecting hole 84 are respectively connected with the sealing cavity 82 and the limiting groove 83. Due to the setting of the limiting groove 83, when the sealing movable plate 43 moves, it can drive the inside of the sealing cavity 82 to move with the cooperation of the connecting hole 84, so that the high pressure or negative pressure can drive the insert positioning plug 33 to move.

[0029] like Figure 3 As shown, the positioning assembly 4 includes a sealing movable plate 43 which is sealingly sleeved inside the limiting groove 83, a connecting positioning sleeve 41 is fixedly connected to the side of the outer surface of the sealing movable plate 43 away from the bottom mold 1, the other end of the connecting positioning sleeve 41 passes through the limiting groove 83 and extends to the outside of the top mold 2, the cross-section of the outer surface of the connecting positioning sleeve 41 is a polygon, and the connecting positioning sleeve 41 is movably sleeved inside the top mold 2; due to the setting of the connecting positioning sleeve 41, the driving screw 42 can be prevented from rotating to drive the connecting positioning sleeve 41 to rotate under the restriction of the top mold 2, thereby ensuring that the driving screw 42 can drive the connecting positioning sleeve 41 and the sealing movable plate 43 to move left and right when rotating.

[0030] like Figure 3 As shown, a driving motor 5 is arranged on the outside of the top mold 2 , and a driving screw 42 is fixedly connected to the right side of the output shaft of the driving motor 5 , and the other end of the driving screw 42 is threadedly sleeved on the inside of the connecting positioning sleeve 41 .

[0031] The working principle and use process of this utility model:

[0032] Insert the insert calibration pin 32 on the back of the movable insert 31 into the core body 81, and then the movable insert 31 is restricted on the core body 81 under the magnetic attraction of the insert positioning plug 33, and then the drive motor 5 is driven to run and drive the driving screw 42 to rotate, and then the connection positioning sleeve 41 can move left and right under the restriction of the top mold 2. When the connection positioning sleeve 41 moves to the left, it can drive the sealing movable plate 43 to move left along the limiting groove 83, and then a negative pressure can be formed in the sealing cavity 82 under the cooperation of the connecting hole 84, so that the insert positioning plug 33 has a tendency to move to the left. At the same time, under the action of negative pressure, the insert calibration pin 32 can be pulled to make the movable insert 31 tightly attached to the surface of the core body 81, and then the bottom mold 1 and the top mold 2 are molded together to form an integrated mold cavity with the bottom mold cavity 6 and the top mold cavity 7, and then the slurry is injected and cooled to complete the molding;

[0033] After cooling and molding, the mold is opened, and the molding mold can be taken out from the bottom mold cavity 6 with the cooperation of the movable insert 31. At this time, the driving motor 5 moves in the opposite direction, and the sealing movable plate 43 can be pushed to the right by driving the screw rod 42 and the connecting positioning sleeve 41, so that the air pressure in the sealing cavity 82 pushes the insert calibration pin 32 and the movable insert 31 in the opposite direction, so that they are separated from the sealing cavity 82, and at the same time, the left end of the molded workpiece 9 is separated from the top mold cavity 7, and finally the movable insert 31 is pulled out from the side of the molded workpiece 9.
