As a new forming technology and another effective way to highly strengthen stamping parts, hot stamping has broad application prospects in the automotive field. The hot stamping process usually uses a hot forming press in cooperation with a die. The die is provided with heating devices for heating and cooling water pipelines.

[0046] The present application provides a heat exchange system for a mold, which can be applied to a stamping device. The stamping device may include the heat exchange system for the mold in the embodiments of the present application (to be described below), or a heating system and a press. The press is used for heating the mold 130 before stamping or during stamping. The press includes a press moving workbench 100, press columns 110, and an upper table 120. Among them, the press moving workbench 100 is used to place the mold 130, and the upper table 120 can be lifted under the action of a lifting member such as a cylinder. The area surrounded by the press moving workbench 100, the press columns 110, and the upper table 120 is the press working area. When the press is working, the press moving workbench 100 is located in the press working area. The ground under the upper table 120 and the ground near the press may be provided with tracks for the movement of the press moving workbench 100. One side of the press moving workbench 100 close to the track is provided with rollers or sliders that cooperate with the track, so that the press moving workbench 100 can move and switch between the press working area (which can also be referred to as the press working position in this article) and the outside of the press working area under the action of a driving member. The driving member can be an electric push rod, a linear motor, etc., and will not be described in detail here. The device for heating the mold 130 has an on-line heating mode and an off-line heating mode. When in the on-line heating mode, the press moving workbench 100 is located in the press working area, and the system heats the mold 130 located in the press working area. When in the off-line heating mode, the press moving workbench 100 moves along the track to the outside of the press working area, and the system heats the mold 130 located outside the press working area.
[0047] Refer to the attached Figure 1-2 An exemplary description is given of a heat exchange system for a mold according to an embodiment of the present application. The mold includes a first mold 131 and a second mold 132 located below the first mold. The heat exchange system of the mold includes a first heating device, a second heating device, a first connector 210, and a second connector 250.
[0048] The heating electrical cabinet 200, as a power distribution device, is used to provide electrical energy. Multiple groups of sockets are provided on the heating electrical cabinet 200 for connecting cable plugs to facilitate power transmission. The heating electrical cabinet 200 is integrated with a PLC system and a control switch electrically connected to the PLC system. The PLC system controls the opening and closing of the heating electrical cabinet 200 according to the signal of the control switch, and further controls the opening and closing of the heating device.
[0049] The first connector 210 is disposed on the moving workbench 100 of the press. Preferably, it can be installed on the front surface of the moving workbench 100 of the press to facilitate the wire insertion operation. Or in other embodiments, it can also be installed on the side surface of the moving workbench 100 of the press or other suitable positions. In an embodiment of the present application, an electrical connection interface 211 is further provided on the first connector 210. For example, the electrical connection interface 211 is adapted to be electrically connected to the heating device in the mold 130 for realizing the electrical energy transfer from the electrical connection interface 211 to the heating device. In an embodiment of the present application, the first connector 210 can be a aviation plug integrated module, on which a plurality of aviation plug interfaces are integrated as the electrical connection interfaces 211 for realizing signal transfer and electrical energy transfer. Specifically, the first connector 210 also communicates with the cooling water pipeline in the mold. The system further includes a cooling water pipe, and the cooling water pipe communicates with the first connector 210 for supplying cooling water to the cooling water pipeline. For example, a water inlet joint 212 communicating with the cooling water pipeline in the mold 130 is provided on the aviation plug integrated module such as the first connector 210, so that the external cooling water can flow into the cooling water pipeline in the mold 130 through the water inlet joint. It should be noted that the cooling water pipeline in the mold 130 is embedded in the mold 130, and the mold 130 is cooled by the cooling water flowing into the cooling water pipeline. The first connector 210 uses an aviation plug integrated module as the electromechanical component for connecting the electrical circuit, with good voltage resistance performance and can effectively improve the safety performance.
[0050] The heating device is disposed in the mold 130 for realizing the conversion of electrical energy into heat energy. In an embodiment of the present application, the heating device uses an electric heating rod bent in a snake shape for multiple times, and the snake-shaped electric heating rod is embedded inside the mold 130. After being powered on, the electric heating rod heats up and conducts heat to the mold 130, thereby realizing the heating of the material on the mold 130. In some other embodiments, those skilled in the art can make other settings for the type and quantity of the heating device according to the actual situation. For example, the heating device can be a heating wire or a heating plate, and the quantity of the heating wire or the heating plate can be set to be multiple, and multiple heating wires or heating plates are embedded inside the mold 130.
[0051] In some embodiments, in order to supply water to the cooling water pipeline in the mold 130, one end of the cooling water pipe communicates with the water supply device, and the other end of the cooling water pipe communicates with the water inlet joint 212 on the first connector 210. Specifically, the water supply device can use a chiller, which is used to supply cooling water to the cooling water pipe after the material is stamped and formed, that is, the cooling water from the chiller can enter the cooling water pipeline in the mold 130 through the cooling water pipe and the water inlet joint 212 to cool the mold 130 and the material stamped and formed thereon.
[0052] To protect the cooling water pipe and the first cable 230, the device for heating the mold 130 in the present application further includes a first drag chain 220. The first drag chain 220 is arranged outside the press moving workbench 100. For example, the first drag chain 220 is arranged on the ground outside the press moving workbench 100, and the mobile end of the first drag chain 220 is also mechanically connected to the press moving workbench 100. The mobile end of the first drag chain 220 moves with the movement of the press moving workbench 100. The first drag chain 220 includes a mobile end and a fixed end.

For example, the first connector 210 has a protective cover body, and both the electrical connection interface 211 and the water inlet joint 212 are fixed on the protective cover body. Moreover, an entrance and exit (i.e., Figure 3 the corresponding entrance of the drag chain in
[0053] In the embodiment of the present application, a support wheel (not shown in the figure) is further arranged on the side of the first drag chain 220 facing the ground. The support wheel can be selected from multiple wheel body structures such as universal wheels and rollers. The support wheel contacts the ground and can assist the movement of the first drag chain 220 to avoid the first drag chain 220 getting stuck when moving (for example, avoiding the first drag chain 220 being stuck by the track of the press moving workbench 100).
[0054] The first cable 230 is adapted at one end to be electrically connected to the heating electrical cabinet 200 and at the other end to be electrically connected to the first electrical connector 210. Specifically, the two ends of the first cable 230 are respectively provided with a first plug that matches the socket on the heating electrical cabinet 200 and a second plug that matches the electrical connection interface, so that the first plug and the second plug are respectively plugged into the socket and the electrical connection interface on the heating electrical cabinet 200, realizing the power transmission from the heating electrical cabinet 200 to the first cable 230, the electrical connection interface 211, and the heating rod in sequence, thereby realizing the heating of the mold 130. At least a part of the first cable 230 is disposed in the first drag chain 220, and at least a part of the cooling water pipe is disposed in the first drag chain 220.

The cooling water pipe and the first cable 230 are uniformly arranged and fixedly limited in the first drag chain 220. It should be noted that the cooling water pipe and the first cable 230 are separately disposed in the first drag chain 220, and different types of pipelines are separated and orderly arranged in the first drag chain 220 to avoid entanglement. When the device switches between the online heating mode and the offline heating mode, that is, when the press moving workbench 100 moves and switches between the press working area and the outside of the press working area, the first drag chain 220 moves with the movement of the press moving workbench 100, and can realize the traction and protection of the cooling water pipe and the first cable 230 arranged inside it.

[0060] When the present system is applied to the online heating mode or the offline heating mode, those skilled in the art can heat the first mold 131 and the second mold 132 simultaneously, or can set the heating sequence of the first mold 131 or the second mold 132 according to actual practical requirements. For example, when the first mold 131 is fixed to the upper table surface 120 of the press, the second connector 250 is adapted to be electrically connected to the first heating device to heat the first mold 131 first; or, when the second mold 132 is located outside the press and on the moving workbench 100 of the press, the first connector 210 is adapted to be electrically connected to the second heating device to heat the second mold 132 first; or, when the first mold 131 is located outside the press and on the moving workbench 100 of the press, the first connector 210 is adapted to be electrically connected to the first heating device to heat the first mold 131 first. When the present system is used in the online heating mode, the mold is in the first position, the second connector 250 is adapted to be electrically connected to the first heating device to heat the first mold 131, and the first connector 210 is adapted to be electrically connected to the second heating device to heat the second mold 132. Specifically, as Figure 2As shown, the mold is located on the moving workbench 100 of the press and within the first position (e.g., the press working area below the upper table of the press). The first mold 131 and the second mold 132 are respectively limited to opposite sides of the upper table 120 of the press and the moving workbench 100 of the press. When the user presses the control switch, the PLC system receives the start signal and controls the heating electrical cabinet 200 to open. At this time, the heating electrical cabinet 200 supplies power to the second heating device through the first cable 230, the first connector 210, and the third cable 270 to heat the second mold 132, and supplies power to the first heating device through the second cable 240, the second connector 250, and the fourth cable 280 to heat the first mold 131. After the first mold 131 and the second mold 132 are heated, the heating electrical cabinet 200 is controlled to close through the control switch, and then the upper table 120 of the press is controlled by the lifting member to drive the first mold 131 to stamp the high-temperature material on the second mold 132. After stamping is completed, the cooling water from the chiller is controlled to enter the cooling water pipeline through the cooling water pipe and the water inlet joint to cool the mold 130 and the material. When this system is used in the offline heating mode, the mold is located in the second position. The first connector 210 is adapted to electrically connect the first heating device and the second heating device to heat the first mold 131 and the second mold 132. Specifically, as Figure 1 shown, the mold is located on the moving workbench 100 of the press and in the second position (e.g., outside the press working area). The first mold 131 and the second mold 132 are both placed on the moving workbench 100 of the press. When the user presses the control switch, the PLC system receives the start signal and controls the heating electrical cabinet 200 to open. At this time, the third cable 270 is used to electrically connect the first heating device, the second heating device, and the electrical connection interface. The heating electrical cabinet 200 supplies power to the first heating device and the second heating device respectively through the first cable 230, the first connector 210, and the third cable 270 to heat the first mold 131 and the second mold 132. After the first mold 131 and the second mold 132 are heated, after the hot stamping process of the mold 130 below the press is completed, the mold 130 that has been heated offline can be directly moved to the lower side of the press. By heating the mold 130 offline, another set of molds 130 can be heated while the press is in production, without occupying the press usage time, saving the mold change time, and improving production efficiency.
