Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of injection molding, and particularly relates to a tooling for automatically removing the sprue. Background Art

[0002] Under the background of global warming and the increasing depletion of fossil energy, the development and utilization of renewable energy have been increasingly emphasized by the international community, and vigorously developing renewable energy has become the consensus of countries around the world. Among various renewable energies, solar energy has become the fastest-growing renewable energy due to its significant advantages such as cleanliness, safety, inexhaustibility, and endless supply. Developing and utilizing solar energy is of great significance for adjusting the energy structure, promoting the energy production and consumption revolution, and promoting the construction of ecological civilization. Solar energy relies on photovoltaic modules for the conduction of converting light energy into electrical energy. With the continuous increase in the market demand for photovoltaic modules, the demand for junction box components, which are indispensable in photovoltaic modules, has also increased significantly.

[0003] When our company injects the junction box cover for the junction box component, the process of cutting off the sprue of the cover is very time-consuming. One injection molding can produce sixteen covers. Usually, manual cutting of the sprue is required. However, since the injection molding cycle is only 30s, usually, a single employee can only cut off the sprue of ten covers before the next batch of sixteen covers with sprues is produced. The manual operation does not match the production cycle, and two employees are needed to meet the production requirements. Moreover, during the cutting process, the residual height at the sprue cutting edge cannot exceed the plane of the cover. After long-term work, the staff will enter a fatigue period, and both physical strength and attention will decline. There may be phenomena such as incomplete cutting and burrs, which are likely to cause secondary rework and greatly reduce the labor efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the current situation and deficiencies of the prior art, the utility model provides a tooling for automatically removing the sprue, which replaces the manual operation of cutting the sprue, improves the work efficiency, and reduces the labor intensity of the operator.

[0005] The technical solution of the utility model is: a tooling for automatically removing the sprue, including a tooling platform, a cover profiling groove, a gantry, a downward pressing air cylinder, a lower pressing plate, a translational thumb air cylinder, and a cutter fixture; the tooling platform is a rectangular profiling platform, and the gantry is arranged in the middle of the tooling platform; on the tooling platform, cover profiling grooves are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the cross beam of the gantry; the translational thumb air cylinder is arranged on the tooling platform, and the cutter fixtures are respectively arranged on the push rods on both sides of the translational thumb air cylinder, and the position of the cutter fixture corresponds to the position of the cover sprue; two sets of downward pressing air cylinders are arranged on both sides of the cross beam of the gantry, and the lower pressing plate is arranged on the telescopic rod of the downward pressing air cylinder, and the position of the lower pressing plate is aligned with the cover profiling groove.

[0006] Preferably, there are four sets of pressing cylinders, which are arranged in pairs at both ends of the gantry; there are eight lid profiling grooves, which are symmetrically arranged in pairs at intervals on the tooling platform, and there are four translation thumb cylinders, which are arranged at intervals on the tooling platform; the lower pressing plate straddles the corresponding four lid profiling grooves.

[0007] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: by using the present utility model, the automated tooling replaces the manual work of cutting the material handle, improves the work efficiency, ensures the consistency of the cut material handle, and reduces the labor intensity of the operators.

[0014] The tooling platform 1 is a rectangular profiling platform, and there are eight lid profiling grooves 2 opened on the tooling platform 1. Every four of the eight lid profiling grooves 2 form a row, and the two rows of corresponding lid profiling grooves 2 are symmetrical; the gantry 3 is fixedly installed in the middle of the two rows of lid profiling grooves 2, and a translation thumb cylinder 6 is fixedly installed between every two symmetrical lid profiling grooves 2. Cutter fixtures 7 are respectively installed on the push rods on both sides of the translation thumb cylinder 6, and the positions of the cutter fixtures 7 correspond to the positions of the lid material handles 9-1; the gantry 3 is fixed in the middle of the tooling platform 1, and two pressing cylinders 4 are respectively fixedly installed on both sides of the cross beam 3-1 of the gantry 3.

Subsequently, both hands press on the two operation switches 8 to start the program. The pressing cylinders 4 fixed on the gantry 3 press down simultaneously according to the preset program, so that the lower pressing plates 5 on both sides press on the surface of the lid 9. The push rods on both sides of the four translation thumb cylinders 6 are pushed out simultaneously according to the preset program, and the cutter fixtures 7 fixed on the push rods cut off the tape cartridge stock 9-1 from the root, thus completing the entire operation.
