[0047] First, see Figure 1-Figure 2 An embodiment of the present application provides a mold docking device for a foam molding machine, which is applied to the foam molding machine. The mold docking device for the foam molding machine includes a mold mounting frame 1 and a fixing frame 3.

[0048] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 The mold frame 1 is provided with a fixing assembly 2, and the fixing assembly 2 can fix the mold assembly 100 to the mold frame 1; Figure 1 and Figure 4 and Figure 6 A locking mechanism 4 is provided on the fixed frame 3, and the locking mechanism 4 includes a driving member 41 and a locking assembly 42. The driving member 41 is fixed to the fixed frame 3, and the locking assembly 42 is provided at the output end of the driving member 41. The driving member 41 can drive the locking assembly 42 to lock the mold frame 1 on the fixed frame 3.

[0049] A mold docking device for a foam molding machine provided in an embodiment of the present application is provided with a fixing component 2 on a mold mounting frame 1, so that the mold component 100 can be fixed on the mold mounting frame 1 from the outside of the foam molding machine, thereby realizing replacement of the mold component 100 outside the foam molding machine. After replacement, the mold component 100 is placed into the foam molding machine for docking and installation, thereby greatly expanding the operating space for installing the mold component 100, thereby greatly reducing the difficulty of operation, and then the mold mounting frame 1 is fixed to the fixed frame 3 by driving the locking component 42 through the driving member 41 provided on the fixed frame 3, thereby realizing docking of the mold component 100 with the fixed frame 3, completing the mold changing operation, making the installation of the mold component 100 more convenient, thereby greatly improving the efficiency of the mold changing work.

[0050] See also Figure 5-Figure 6 In some embodiments, the locking mechanism 4 further includes a locking seat 43 , a first locking groove 431 is formed on the locking seat 43 , a locking block 11 is provided on the mold frame 1 , and the locking assembly 42 can lock the locking block 11 in the first locking groove 431 .

[0051] The locking block 11 on the mold frame 1 is fixed in the first locking groove 431 through the locking assembly 42, so that the mold frame 1 is locked on the fixed frame 3, thereby achieving the docking of the mold assembly 100 and the fixed frame 3, completing the mold changing operation, making the mold installation more convenient, and thus greatly improving the efficiency of the mold changing work.

[0052] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the first direction X is the X direction, the second direction Y is the Y direction, and the third direction Z is the Z direction.

[0053] See also Figure 3-Figure 6 In some embodiments, the locking assembly 42 includes a locking member 421, which is arranged at the output end of the driving member 41. A second locking groove 4211 is provided on the locking member 421, and a through hole is provided on the locking seat 43 along the first direction X, which passes through the locking seat 43. The locking member 421 is penetrated through the through hole, and the driving member 41 can drive the locking member 421 to move along the through hole to a locked position or an unlocked position.

[0054] By opening a through hole on the locking seat 43 so that the locking piece 421 is inserted into the through hole, the locking piece 421 can slide along the through hole, thereby playing a certain guiding role for the locking piece 421, so that the locking piece 421 cooperates with the locking seat 43 to lock the locking block 11 in the locking seat 43, thereby achieving the fixation of the mold frame 1 and the fixed frame 3, and achieving the docking of the mold assembly 100 and the fixed frame 3, and completing the mold changing operation.

[0055] Specific reference Figure 3 and Figure 4When the locking piece 421 is in the unlocking position, the second locking groove 4211 is connected to the first locking groove 431 along the second direction Y, and the locking block 11 can pass through the second locking groove 4211 along the second direction Y and enter the first locking groove 431.

[0056] When the locking piece 421 is in the unlocked position, the second locking groove 4211 opened on the locking piece 421 and the first locking groove 431 opened on the locking seat 43 can form a locking groove, so that the locking block 11 can enter the first locking groove 431 to achieve docking of the mold assembly 100 with the fixed frame 3.

[0057] Specific reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 When the locking member 421 is in the locking position, the second locking groove 4211 is located outside the first locking groove 431 , so that the locking member 421 can block the first locking groove 431 along the second direction, thereby fixing the locking block 11 in the first locking groove 431 .

[0058] When the locking piece 421 is in the locking position, the second locking groove 4211 passes through the locking seat 43 and moves to the outside of the locking seat 43, so that the portion of the locking piece 421 without the second locking groove 4211 can close the opening of the first locking groove 431, and the side of the locking block 11 away from the locking piece 421 abuts against the fixed frame 3, and then the locking piece 421 blocks the locking block 11 in the first locking groove 431, thereby achieving the fixation of the mold frame 1 and the fixed frame 3.

[0059] In the embodiment of the present application, locking blocks 11 are provided on both sides of the mold mounting frame 1 along the third direction, and locking mechanisms 4 corresponding to the locking blocks 11 are provided on both ends of the fixing frame 3 along the third direction.

[0060] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the first locking groove 431 opened on the locking block 11 and the second locking groove 4211 opened on the locking member 421 have the same cross-sectional shape, so that the locking block 11 can more easily pass through the locking groove composed of the second locking groove 4211 and the first locking groove 431 and enter the first locking groove 431.

[0061] In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, the locking piece 421 is a wedge-shaped block, and the side of the wedge-shaped block facing the locking block 11 is an inclined surface. When the driving piece 41 pushes the wedge-shaped block to lock the locking block 11, the wedge-shaped block can contact the locking block 11 and gradually fit more and more closely, thereby gradually increasing the fixing effect of the locking block 11.

[0062] See also Figure 3 and Figure 5In some embodiments, at least two locking seats 43 are arranged on the fixed frame 3 along the first direction X, and a locking piece 421 is respectively inserted into each locking seat 43. The locking assembly 42 also includes a connecting rod 422, and at least two locking pieces 421 are connected by the connecting rod 422.

[0063] By providing at least two locking seats 43 in the first direction X and respectively providing a locking member 421 in each locking seat 43, the locking mechanism 4 can fix the mold mounting frame 1 on the fixing frame 3 more stably, thereby further improving the docking quality of the mold assembly 100 and the fixing frame 3. In addition, by providing a connecting rod 422 to connect at least two locking members 421, the at least two locking members 421 can be controlled by one driving member 41, thereby greatly reducing the production cost of the locking mechanism 4.

[0064] In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, four locking seats 43 are provided, and the four locking seats 43 are respectively provided at the four corners of the fixing hole. At the same time, two driving members 41, two connecting rods 422 and four locking members 421 corresponding to the four locking seats 43 are provided.

[0065] See also Figure 3 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the locking block 11 is extended along the third direction Z on the mold frame 1, and the locking member 421 is arranged along the first direction X; the first direction X, the second direction Y and the third direction Z are perpendicular to each other.

[0066] By extending the locking block 11 along the third direction Z and arranging the locking member 421 along the first direction X, it is possible to avoid that the locking block 11 and the locking member 421 are arranged in the same direction, which would interfere with each other when the locking member 421 fixes the locking block 11 in the locking seat 43. In addition, by arranging the locking block 11 and the locking member 421 to be perpendicular to each other, the fixing effect of the locking member 421 on the locking block 11 can be greatly improved, thereby further improving the docking quality of the mold assembly 100 and the fixed frame 3.

[0067] See also Figure 2 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, the fixing assembly 2 includes a pressing plate 21 and a fastener 22 , and the pressing plate 21 fixes the mold to the mold mounting frame 1 through the fastener 22 .

[0068] The mold assembly 100 is pressed onto the mold frame 1 by the pressing plate 21 , and then the pressing plate 21 and the mold frame 1 are fastened by the fastener 22 , so that the mold assembly 100 is fixed onto the mold frame 1 .

[0069] In addition, the fixing assembly 2 further includes a guide rod 23. The pressing plate 21 has a through hole, and the guide rod 23 is inserted into the through hole. The guide rod 23 can provide a guiding function for the pressing plate 21, so that the pressing plate 21 can more stably press the mold assembly 100 onto the mold frame 1.

[0070] See also Figure 2 and Figure 8 In some embodiments, a sliding component 5 is provided on the mold frame 1, and the sliding component 5 can drive the mold frame 1 to slide.

[0071] By setting the sliding component 5, the mold frame 1 can be moved, so that the staff can move the mold frame 1 conveniently, and then fix it with the fixed frame 3 more conveniently, so that the mold assembly 100 can be docked with the fixed frame 3, and the mold changing operation can be completed, thereby greatly improving the efficiency of the mold changing work.

[0072] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the sliding assembly 5 includes a sliding frame 51 and a pulley 52 . The sliding frame 51 is disposed at the bottom of the mold mounting frame 1 , and the pulley 52 is disposed on the sliding frame 51 .

[0073] See also Figure 1-Figure 2 In some embodiments, the mold docking device of the foam molding machine further includes a docking track, and the sliding assembly 5 can move along the docking track.

[0074] By providing a docking track, the sliding assembly 5 can drive the mold mounting frame 1 to slide on the sliding docking track until it slides to a position docking with the fixed frame 3, thereby completing the mold changing operation and greatly improving the efficiency of the mold changing operation.

[0075] See also Figure 2 and Fig. 9 In some embodiments, a positioning rod 12 is provided on the mold frame, a positioning plate 101 is provided on the mold assembly 100, a positioning hole is opened on the positioning plate 101, and the positioning rod 12 is inserted into the positioning hole.

[0076] By providing a positioning rod 12 on the mold frame and a positioning plate 101 on the mold assembly 100, the position of the mold assembly 100 on the mold frame can be limited when the mold assembly 100 is fixed on the mold frame, so that when the mold frame and the fixed frame 3 are locked, the mold assembly 100 can be accurately docked with the fixed frame 3, thereby greatly improving the installation accuracy of the mold assembly 100.

[0077] In some embodiments, the mold mounting frame is also provided with a raw material pipeline docking interface, a drainage pipeline docking interface, and a steam pipeline docking interface. In addition, it also includes an air duct for controlling the switch of the material gun and an installation area for the material gun.

[0078] By arranging raw material pipeline docking interfaces, drainage pipeline docking interfaces, steam pipeline docking interfaces, air ducts for controlling material gun switches, and material gun installation areas on the mold mounting frame, the mold mounting frame and various parts in the foam molding machine can be quickly installed, thereby greatly improving mold changing efficiency.

[0079] In a second aspect, an embodiment of the present application further provides a foam molding machine, including the mold docking device of the above-mentioned foam molding machine.

[0080] In some embodiments, the foam molding machine also includes a moving frame, and the mold assembly 100 includes a first mold and a second mold. The first mold is fixed on the fixed frame 3, and the second mold is fixed on the moving frame. The moving frame can drive the second mold to be relatively away from or close to the first mold, thereby realizing the opening and closing of the mold.

[0081] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0082] The above-described embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present application, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be pointed out that, for a person of ordinary skill in the art, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present application, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present application.
