[0033] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0034] Please also read Figures 1 to 7Now, the injection mold for injection molding a knob provided in the embodiment of the present application is described. The injection mold for injection molding a knob comprises: a lower mold base 10 and an upper mold base 20 .

[0035] The upper mold base 20 is movably installed on the top of the lower mold base 10. When the upper mold base 20 and the lower mold base 10 are closed, the knob 30 can be injection molded; wherein, a lower mold core 11 is installed on the top of the lower mold base 10, and a first molding cavity 12 for molding the knob 30 is recessed on the top of the lower mold core 11; an upper mold core 21 that can move up and down is installed at the bottom of the upper mold base 20, and the upper mold core 21 is installed with a first molding insert 22 for molding the knob 30; when the upper mold base 20 is moved down relative to the lower mold base 10 to close the mold, the first molding insert 22 can be inserted into the first molding cavity 12 and injection mold the knob 30; a first pull plate 23 that can move up and down is installed at the bottom of the upper mold core 21, and when the upper mold base 20 is removed from the mold relative to the lower mold base 10, the first pull plate 23 can be pulled downward to eject the knob 30.

[0036] Specifically, an upper mold core 21 that can move up and down is set, and a first pull plate 23 that can move up and down is installed at the bottom of the lower mold core 11; when the upper mold base 20 is moved up relative to the lower mold base 10 to open the mold, the first pull plate 23 can be driven to move downward relative to the upper mold core 21 to eject the knob 30 from the first molding insert 22; during this mold opening process, there is no need to use an ejector pin to eject the knob 30, so as to solve the problem of damage to the back side of the knob 30 when the ejector pin is used to eject the knob 30 in the traditional technology, thereby improving the production reliability and production yield of the injection molding of the knob 30; at the same time, during this mold opening process, there is no need to set an ejector plate structure, which eliminates the mold opening action of the ejector plate ejecting and returning, shortens the mold opening time, and thus improves production efficiency.

[0037] In some embodiments of the present application, the first pull plate 23 is provided with a first through hole 231 penetrating through the upper and lower surfaces thereof, and the first molding insert 22 can extend downward through the first through hole 231, and the bottom of the first molding insert 22 protrudes from the bottom of the first pull plate 23. When the upper mold base 20 moves downward relative to the lower mold base 10, the upper mold base 20 and the lower mold base 10 can be molded together, and at this time, the bottom of the first molding insert 22 is inserted into the first molding cavity 12 to enclose a cavity for injection molding the knob 30, and hot melt slurry is injected into the first molding cavity 12, and after a waiting period of cooling and solidification, the knob 30 body can be obtained.

[0038] Specifically, the width of the first through hole 231 is smaller than the width of the first molding cavity 12, so that the first pull plate 23 constitutes a first ejection portion 232; when the first pull plate 23 moves downward, the knob 30 can be ejected from the first molding insert 22. Preferably, the first pull plate 23 is connected to a first pull rod 233, and a first limiting protrusion 234 is provided at the bottom of the first pull rod 233; the lower mold core 11 is provided with a first limiting hole 111, and the first limiting protrusion 234 can be movably inserted into the first limiting hole 111; when the upper mold base 20 moves upward relative to the lower mold base 10, the first limiting protrusion 234 abuts against the top of the first limiting hole 111 and pulls the first pull rod 233 to move downward.

[0039] It should be noted that the width of the top opening of the first limiting hole 111 is smaller than the width of the first limiting protrusion 234, so that the first limiting protrusion 234 can only move up and down in the first limiting hole 111, and will not be separated from the top of the first limiting hole 111. When the upper mold base 20 moves upward, the first limiting protrusion 234 abuts against the top of the first limiting hole 111, and the first pull rod 233 pulls the first pull plate 23 downward, so that the first pull plate 23 pushes the knob 30 downward from the bottom of the first molding insert 22 to complete the demoulding operation of the knob 30.

[0040] Moreover, since the first molding cavity 12 is used to mold the shape of the knob 30, and the side surface of the first molding cavity 12 is inclined outward from bottom to top, during the mold opening process, the knob 30 will first be demolded from the first molding cavity 12, and then the knob 30 attached to the first molding insert 22 will be ejected and demolded through the first pull plate 23.

[0041] Furthermore, a first stroke limiting rod 235 is installed on the top of the first pull plate 23, and the upper mold core 21 is provided with a first stroke limiting hole 211 for inserting the first stroke limiting rod 235. The first stroke limiting rod 235 is used to limit the downward movement distance of the first pull plate 23 to ensure that the upper mold base 20 will not completely separate from the upper mold base 20 when moving up and down, so as to facilitate the next mold closing operation.

[0042] In some embodiments of the present application, the upper mold base 20 is provided with a first guide rod 24, and the lower mold base 10 is provided with a first guide hole 14, and the first guide rod 24 can be movably inserted into the first guide hole 14. The upper mold base 20 is provided with a first pouring port 25, and the upper mold core 21 is provided with a first flow channel 212, and the first flow channel 212 runs through the bottom of the first molding insert 22; when the upper mold base 20 and the lower mold base 10 are molded, the bottom of the first flow channel 212 is conductively connected to the first molding cavity 12.

[0043] By setting a first flow channel, and the first flow channel passing through the bottom of the first molding insert, the hot melt slurry is injected from the center of the knob with the help of the first insert; there is no need to inject glue on the outer surface of the knob, so as to solve the technical problem of residual glue on the knob surface in traditional technology, and improve the surface flatness of the knob.

[0044] In some other embodiments of the present application, a nozzle plate 26 is further included. The nozzle plate 26 is disposed at the bottom of the upper mold base 20 and the top of the upper mold core 21. The nozzle plate 26 is provided with a second flow channel 261. One end of the second flow channel 261 is conductively connected to the first pouring port 25, and the other end is conductively connected to the first flow channel 212. A second tie rod 262 is provided at the bottom of the nozzle plate 26, and a second limiting convex ring 263 is provided at the bottom of the second tie rod 262; the upper mold core 21 is provided with a second limiting hole 236, and the second limiting convex ring 263 can be movably inserted into the second limiting hole 236; when the upper mold base 20 moves up, the upper mold core 21 moves down relative to the upper mold base 20 and pulls the nozzle plate 26 to move downward to push out the nozzle material 40. A second stroke limiting rod 264 is provided on the top of the nozzle plate 26, and the upper mold base 20 is provided with a second stroke limiting hole 213 for movably inserting the second stroke limiting rod 264. The functions of the second stroke limiting rod 264 and the second stroke limiting rod 264 are the same as those of the first stroke limiting rod 235 and the first stroke limiting hole 211, which will not be repeated here.

[0045] Please also read Figures 4 to 7 The working principle of the injection mold for injection molding the knob 30 provided in the present application is described in detail as follows:

[0046] First, the upper die base 20 is driven to move downward relative to the lower die base 10 to complete the mold closing operation;

[0047] Then, the hot melt slurry is injected from the first pouring port, flows through the second flow channel 261 and the first flow channel 212 and enters the first molding cavity 12, and the hot melt slurry is cooled and solidified to form the knob 30;

[0048] Furthermore, the upper mold base 20 is driven to move upward relative to the lower mold base 10, and the nozzle material 40 is pulled to separate from the first flow channel 212 and the second flow channel 261; after the upper mold base 20 moves upward for a certain distance, the second limiting protrusion 263 of the second pull rod 262 abuts against the top of the second limiting hole 236, and the nozzle plate 26 is pulled downward relative to the upper mold base 20, so as to eject the nozzle material 40 from the first pouring port;

[0049] Then, the upper die base 20 is driven to move upward relative to the lower die base 10, and the upper die core 21 is pulled upward by the second pull rod 262, so that the knob 30 is separated from the first molding cavity 12 and attached to the bottom of the first molding insert 22;

[0050] Furthermore, the upper die base 20 is continuously driven to move upward relative to the lower die base 10; after the upper die base 20 moves upward a certain distance, the first limiting protrusion 234 of the first pull rod 233 abuts against the top of the first limiting hole 111, and pulls the first pull rod 233 downward relative to the upper die core 21, so as to eject the knob 30 from the first molding insert;

[0051] By repeating the above steps, the injection molding operation of the knob 30 can be continuously completed.

[0052] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention, and only specifically describe the technical principles of the present invention. These descriptions are only for the purpose of explaining the principles of the present invention, and cannot be interpreted as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention in any way. Based on the explanation here, any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention, and other specific implementation methods of the present invention that can be associated with by technicians in this field without creative labor, should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
