[0031] The embodiments of the present invention 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 invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.
[0032] The core of the utility model is to provide a foaming mold for a midsole of a shoe, which can effectively improve the quality of the product.
[0033] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution provided by the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0034] Specifically, please refer to Figure 1-Figure 2 The utility model provides a shoe midsole foaming embryo mold, which includes an upper mold 100 and a bottom mold 200.
[0035] There are two spaced and symmetrically arranged foaming spaces 210 between the upper mold 100 and the bottom mold 200. The shape of the foaming space 210 is consistent with the shape of the midsole after molding. The structure of the mold / foaming space 210 can be designed according to the shape and size of the small blank. The upper mold 100 is provided with a material channel 110, a first feed hole 120 for connecting the material channel 110 and one foaming space 210, and a second feed hole 130 for connecting the material channel 110 and another foaming space 210.
[0036] The material channel 110 is arranged along the width direction of the foaming space 210, and the projections of the first feed hole 120 and the second feed hole 130 are respectively located on the middle waist parts of the two foaming spaces 210. Compared with the prior art that sets the filling point of the material gun head at the sole position of the mold, this solution sets the material channel 110 corresponding to the material gun head on the middle waist part of the foaming space 210 of the mold, which can realize the expansion of the foaming material in three directions of X, Y and Z, and can ensure good dimensional stability and variability. It should be noted that the X direction is the width direction of the small embryo, the Y direction is the length direction of the small embryo, and the Z direction is the thickness direction of the small embryo.
[0037] The shoe midsole foaming embryo mold provided by the utility model has two foaming spaces 210 for foaming and molding of foaming materials between the upper mold 100 and the bottom mold 200. The foaming materials are introduced into the material channel 110, and the foaming materials enter the two foaming spaces 210 through the first feed hole 120 and the second feed hole 130 respectively. Since the material channel 110 is arranged along the width direction of the foaming space 210, the projections of the first feed hole 120 and the second feed hole 130 are respectively located on the middle waist parts of the two foaming spaces 210, which can realize the full expansion of the foaming materials in the three dimensions of the X direction, the Y direction and the Z direction in the foaming space 210, and effectively improve the production efficiency and product quality.
[0038] In a specific embodiment, at least one of the upper mold 100 and the bottom mold 200 is provided with a vacuum hole 310 and a vacuum groove 320 for connecting the vacuum hole 310 and the two foaming spaces 210. An external vacuum device is connected to the vacuum hole 310 to extract the internal air of the foaming space 210 to prevent oxidation reaction from occurring during the foaming process and affecting the molding quality of the shoe midsole. The projection of the vacuum hole 310 can be located on the center line of the front ends of the two foaming spaces 210 and extend to the top of the foaming space 210 through the vacuum groove 320.
[0039] In a specific embodiment, the foaming space 210 is arranged on the opposite surfaces of the upper mold 100 and the bottom mold 200, or the foaming space 210 is only arranged on the bottom mold 200, and can be adaptively designed according to the shape and size of the shoe midsole blank.
[0040] On the basis of the above specific embodiment, a mounting groove is provided at the bottom of the bottom mold 200, and an automatic telescopic mechanism 400 is provided in the mounting groove. The automatic telescopic mechanism 400 retracts into the mounting groove in a contracted state, and pushes the shoe midsole foaming embryo mold away from the external heating device in an extended state. The external heating device cover is arranged outside the shoe midsole foaming embryo mold to heat the mold.
[0041] Of course, the automatic telescopic mechanism 400 can also adopt other mechanism forms, as long as it can achieve elongation after the processing of the shoe midsole foaming embryo mold is completed, thereby pushing the shoe midsole foaming embryo mold outward.
[0042] Furthermore, the automatic telescopic mechanism 400 includes a spring, an electromagnetic coil and an armature, wherein the electromagnetic coil is arranged at the bottom of the mounting groove, one end of the spring is arranged at the bottom of the mounting groove and the other end is provided with an armature. When the electromagnetic coil is energized, a magnetic force that attracts the armature is generated, thereby compressing the spring, so that the electromagnetic coil and the armature are attracted together, and the automatic telescopic mechanism 400 is in a contracted state. When the electromagnetic coil is de-energized, the magnetic force that attracts the armature disappears, and the armature extends out of the mounting groove under the elastic force of the spring, pushing the shoe midsole foaming embryo mold away from the external heating device.
[0043] In a specific embodiment, one end of the upper mold 100 and the bottom mold 200 are rotatably connected to realize that the two can be flipped open and closed, and the other end of the upper mold 100 and the bottom mold 200 are connected by a buckle mechanism 500 to realize closure in the use state. Among them, a hinge mechanism is provided at the connection of one end of the upper mold 100 and the bottom mold 200, and the rotatable connection is realized by the hinge mechanism.
[0044] In addition, the upper mold 100 may also be equipped with a handle 600 to facilitate the movement of the shoe midsole foaming embryo mold and to assist the upper mold 100 in opening and closing relative to the bottom mold 200.
[0045] In order to achieve accurate alignment of the upper mold 100 and the bottom mold 200, at least one positioning column is provided on one of the upper mold 100 and the bottom mold 200, and a positioning hole matching the positioning column is provided at a relative position of the other of the upper mold 100 and the bottom mold 200. The number and position of the positioning column and the positioning hole correspond one to one, and both can be provided with one or more.
[0046] Similarly, in order to facilitate the accurate positioning of the midsole foaming embryo mold and the external heating device, a positioning groove for engaging with the external heating device is provided on the side of the bottom mold 200. Correspondingly, a positioning protrusion is provided at the relative position of the external heating device. The number and position of the positioning groove and the positioning protrusion correspond one to one, and both can be provided with one or more.
[0047] Specifically, the mold for the foaming embryo of the midsole can be made of steel or aluminum, which can withstand high pressure and temperature. The density of aluminum is small, which can reduce the weight of the mold and facilitate transportation and operation. At the same time, aluminum has good heat dissipation performance, which can effectively reduce the temperature of the mold during use and extend the service life of the mold.
[0048] like Figure 2 As shown, the upper mold 100 and the bottom mold 200 are both rectangular structures, which are convenient for production.
