Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of installation and replacement of injection molding machines, in particular to a three-plate milling bottom quick production replacement fixture for injection molding machines. Background Art
[0002] At present, the milling bottom of the three plates of the mold part of the injection molding machine is generally clamped and processed by a split fixture. It is installed on the machine tool workbench with 4 equal-height blocks, leveled with a dial indicator, calibrated with a template, and the workpiece is installed.
[0003] The existing clamping method needs to be repeated for each workpiece: installation, leveling the datum with a dial indicator, and template calibration steps. For unprocessed casting surfaces, the datum finding and template calibration steps take a long time, because each operation will have variables for different casting surfaces. It is not a programmed operation that can be completed overnight, but requires the operator to have certain experience and be good at adapting to different situations. This results in the clamping process not only being time-consuming, but also limiting the operating experience of employees. Machining of large castings such as three large plates is usually a very time-consuming process, involving multiple steps such as multi-faceted milling, drilling and boring. Complex and time-consuming installation means low machining efficiency. The low machining efficiency of a single process will have a negative impact on the entire process flow, which is not conducive to improving workshop production efficiency or reducing machining costs. If only one type of workpiece is improved, then when the machine tool switches the type of workpiece to be processed, it will face the problem of replacing and recalibrating heavy fixtures, which wastes a lot of changeover time and poses safety and quality risks. Therefore, a three-plate milling bottom quick-change fixture for injection molding machines is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the utility model provides a three-plate milling bottom quick-change fixture for an injection molding machine, which has the advantages of improving the replacement efficiency and solving the problem of only improving one type of workpiece. When the machine tool switches the type of workpiece to be processed, it will face the problem of replacing and recalibrating the heavy fixture, which greatly wastes the production change time and poses safety and quality risks.
[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions: a three-plate milling bottom quick production change fixture for an injection molding machine, comprising a backing mold, and the outer wall of the backing mold is provided with a replacement mechanism;
[0006] The replacement mechanism includes two first positioning pins installed on the outer wall of the bottom of the support mold, four equal-height pads are installed on the top of the support mold, and second positioning pins are installed on the top of the equal-height pads. The internal thread of the second positioning pin is connected with an M screw rod, and a small pressure plate is installed on the outer peripheral wall of the M screw rod. A washer is slidably connected to the outer peripheral wall of the M screw rod, and an M nut is threadedly connected to the outer peripheral wall of the M screw rod, and a workpiece is installed on the outer peripheral wall of the M screw rod.
[0007] Furthermore, two reserved holes are opened inside the master mold, and the first positioning pins are installed inside the reserved holes and have sizes that match the first positioning pins.
[0008] Furthermore, the first positioning pin is fixedly mounted on the bottom outer wall of the equal height cushion block.
[0009] Furthermore, four mounting holes are opened inside the workpiece, and the M screw rods are installed inside the mounting holes and have matching sizes.
[0010] Furthermore, the small pressing plate is movably installed on the top of the workpiece.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial effects:
[0012] The three-platen milling bottom quick-change fixture of the injection molding machine adds a backing mold under the four equal-height pads, and installs locating pins through the reserved holes on it to place the equal-height pads. The small pressure plate is also changed to be clamped through the four large through holes of the workpiece. After the position of the equal-height pads is limited by the locating pins on the backing mold, locating pins are further installed on the pads to achieve two-pin positioning on one side of the workpiece. In this way, the positioning of the workpiece can be completely handed over to the locating pins, and there is no need to manually calibrate the workpiece position. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0019] 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.
[0020] For example, see Figures 1 to 4 In this embodiment, a three-plate milling bottom quick-change fixture for an injection molding machine includes a backing mold 1, and a replacement mechanism is provided on the outer wall of the backing mold 1.
[0021] The replacement mechanism includes two first locating pins 2 installed on the bottom outer wall of the backing mold 1, two reserved holes are opened inside the backing mold 1, the first locating pins 2 are installed inside the reserved holes and are of suitable size, four equal-height pads 3 are installed on the top of the backing mold 1, the first locating pins 2 are fixedly installed on the bottom outer wall of the equal-height pads 3, the top of the equal-height pads 3 is installed with a second locating pin 4, the internal thread of the second locating pin 4 is connected with an M20 screw rod 5, the outer peripheral wall of the M20 screw rod 5 is installed with a small pressure plate 6, the outer peripheral wall of the M20 screw rod 5 is slidably connected with a washer 7, the outer peripheral wall of the M20 screw rod 5 is threaded with an M20 nut 8, the outer peripheral wall of the M20 screw rod 5 is installed with a workpiece 9, four mounting holes are opened inside the workpiece 9, the M20 screw rod 5 is installed inside the mounting holes and of suitable size, and the small pressure plate 6 is movably installed on the top of the workpiece 9.
[0022] Embodiment 2: The workpiece 9 of embodiment 2 is different from that of embodiment 1, but the overall installation steps are the same.
[0023] Embodiment 3: The workpiece 9 of embodiment 3 is different from that of embodiment 1 and embodiment 2, but the overall installation steps are the same.
[0024] In this embodiment, according to Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the number of reserved holes for locating pins on the fixture has been expanded to twenty-two groups, so that the fixture can realize clamping and processing for workpieces 9 of similar structures of different sizes, which significantly increases the versatility of the fixture, solves the problem of needing to replace the fixture when the type of workpiece 9 to be processed changes, saves time for fixture replacement and recalibration, and reduces quality risks caused by repeated realignment and recalibration.
