However, after long-term use or when the existing hydraulic forming die is offset during installation, a certain gap will be formed between the upper die and the lower die, which will cause the liquid to leak out of the gap easily, affecting the forming effect. Therefore, in view of this, a hydraulic forming die edge structure is proposed to solve the above technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0034] The following embodiments of the technical solution of the utility model are described in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the utility model, and are therefore only used as examples, and cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the utility model.

[0035] Example:

[0036] like Figure 1As shown, the utility model provides a hydraulic forming die edge structure, including a workbench 101, a water supply channel 102 and a lower mold 103 are arranged on the workbench 101, the water supply channel 102 runs through the lower mold 103, and a lifting platform 401 is arranged at the telescopic end of the hydraulic press on the workbench 101, and an upper mold 402 is arranged at the bottom of the lifting platform 401. When in use, the sheet is placed on the lower mold 103, and the lifting platform 401 and the upper mold 402 at the bottom are driven to descend by controlling the telescopic end of the hydraulic press, and the peripheral side of the sheet is pressed and fixed in cooperation with the lower mold 103, and then high-pressure liquid is injected into the cavity between the lower mold 103 and the sheet through the water supply channel 102, so that the sheet is deformed for hydraulic forming.

[0037] like Figure 2 , 3 As shown, in this embodiment, a plurality of groups of adjusting columns 202 are arranged in an annular direction on the workbench 101, and the adjusting columns 202 abut against the lower mold 103. The workbench 101 is provided with adjusting mechanisms with the same number of groups as the adjusting columns 202, and the adjusting mechanisms are connected to the adjusting columns 202 to drive the adjusting columns 202 to rise and fall. The adjusting mechanisms include a lifting column 201 at the bottom of the adjusting column 202, a positioning frame 106 is provided on the workbench 101, and the lifting column 201 is arranged in the positioning frame 106 so as to be liftable, a wedge-shaped groove 203 is provided on the lifting column 201, one end of the wedge block 303 is clamped in the wedge-shaped groove 203, and its inclined surface abuts against the inclined surface of the wedge-shaped groove 203, a slide groove 107 is provided on the workbench 101, and the wedge block 303 is slidably clamped in the slide groove 107, and a driving component connected to the wedge block 303 is provided on the workbench 101, and the wedge block 303 is driven to slide by the driving component. The driving assembly includes a threaded column 301 rotatably arranged on the workbench 101 and screwed thereto, a wedge block 303 is rotatably connected to one end of the threaded column 301 , and an adjusting wheel 302 is arranged at the other end of the threaded column 301 .

[0038] The threaded column 301 can be driven to rotate by rotating the adjusting wheel 302, and then the threaded column 301 can be driven to slide along its axis through the threaded movement to drive the wedge block 303 to slide. During the sliding process, the wedge block 303 drives the lifting column 201 to rise and fall through the contact between its top inclined surface and the inclined surface of the wedge groove 203, and then controls the adjustment column 202 to rise and fall to abut against one end of the lower mold 103, thereby fine-tuning the angle between the lower mold 103 and the workbench 101, so that the lower mold 103 is parallel to the upper mold 402, thereby eliminating the gap between the lower mold 103 and the upper mold 402 during the pressing process, effectively preventing liquid leakage, ensuring that the hydraulic pressure in the pressing cavity reaches the pressing standard, and improving the pressing efficiency.

[0039] The slope of the wedge block 303 is preferably between 20° and 35°. By controlling the change in the slope of the inclined surface of the wedge block 303, the smaller the slope of the inclined surface of the wedge block 303, the more precise the control of the lifting height of the adjustment column 202. At the same time, it can effectively reduce the axial force on the threaded column 301, avoid thread slippage and damage to the threaded column 301, and improve the stability and service life of the structure.

[0040] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, in this embodiment, a sealing sleeve 104 is provided around the water supply channel 102, and the sealing sleeve 104 is arranged in the lower mold 103 and fits therewith, and the sealing sleeve 104 is made of a flexible material. The arrangement of the sealing sleeve 104 can make the internal cavity of the lower mold 103 form a sealed state with the sheet material when the position is fine-tuned, so as to adapt to the position change of the lower mold 103. A limiting hole 105 is provided at the bottom of the lower mold 103, and the end of the adjusting column 202 is inserted into the limiting hole 105 and abuts against the lower mold 103. The diameter of the limiting hole 105 is larger than the diameter of the adjusting column 202, and is used to adapt to the lifting and lowering of the adjusting column 202 and the position change of the lower mold 103, thereby improving the practicality of the structure. And it is only necessary to adjust the lower mold 103 to be parallel to the upper mold 402, and the contact surface between the lower mold 103 and the upper mold 402 is a conical surface, which can adapt to the lateral displacement of the lower mold 103 along its plane.

[0041] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, a sealing ring 108 is provided on the working surface of the lower mold 103. The sealing effect can be further improved by the provision of the sealing ring 108, and the leakage of the high-pressure liquid can be further prevented.

[0042] Specific usage and beneficial effects of the utility model:

[0043] The telescopic end of the hydraulic press can be controlled to extend and retract to drive the lifting platform 401 and the upper mold 402 at the bottom thereof to descend, and the lower mold 103 can be used to press the sheet material to be formed, and then high-pressure liquid can be injected into the cavity between the lower mold 103 and the sheet material through the water supply channel 102 to form the sheet material. When the upper mold 402 or the lower mold 103 is offset due to errors in the installation process or after long-term use, the threaded column 301 can be driven to rotate by rotating the adjusting wheel 302. The threaded column 301 drives the wedge block 303 to slide in the slide groove 107 during the rotation process, and then one or more groups of adjusting columns 202 are driven to rise and fall through the cooperation of the wedge block 303 and the wedge groove 203, so as to drive the lower mold 103 to deviate and make it parallel to the upper mold 402, so that the upper mold 402 can be closely fitted with the lower mold 103 when pressed down, thereby effectively preventing liquid leakage during the hydraulic forming process from reducing the forming effect and effectively reducing the defective product rate.

[0044] The basic principle and main features of the present invention and the advantages of the present invention are shown and described above. For those skilled in the art, it is obvious that the present invention is not limited to the details of the above exemplary embodiments.
