Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of handle brackets, and in particular to a mold for a washing machine handle bracket. Background Art

[0002] The washing machine handle bracket is a component in the design of a washing machine, used to fix and support the operating handle of the washing machine; this bracket is usually located at the top or front of the washing machine to ensure the stability of the handle and the safety during operation. The existing mold for the washing machine handle bracket has an undercut on the outer appearance of the upper mold, adopts an internal slider in a tunnel, and has a mold structure with the mold opening and clamping directly driven by an oil cylinder. Since the washing machine handle bracket is an appearance part, the injection pressure is relatively large, and the internal slider is subjected to a relatively large pressure. When the pressure on the internal slider is greater than the clamping force of the oil cylinder, the parting line difference of the internal slider of the washing machine handle bracket appearance will increase, affecting the appearance quality of the product. Seriously, the plastic will overflow into the inside of the internal slider, causing the mold to be unable to produce normally and the mold to be damaged.

[0003] Therefore, it is crucial to provide a mold for a washing machine handle bracket that can solve the above problems. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] In order to solve the above problems, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a mold for a washing machine handle bracket. The mold for the washing machine handle bracket is suitable for the injection molding of a washing machine handle bracket with a relatively large projected area of the upper mold slider and a large injection force.

[0005] The purpose of the utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0006] The utility model provides a mold for a washing machine handle bracket, which is used to produce a washing machine handle bracket with an undercut on the appearance, and includes an upper mold and a lower mold. After the upper mold and the lower mold are closed, an injection cavity is formed between the two. It further includes:

[0007] An internal slider that is slidably arranged on the upper mold and can slide into the injection cavity to clamp the undercut position of the washing machine handle bracket;

[0008] And an auxiliary internal slider demolding component for driving the internal slider to move back and forth, which includes an oil cylinder, a second slider connected to the oil cylinder and driven by it, a first slider that is slidably matched with the second slider through an inclined plane, and a guide block arranged on the side wall of the upper mold for accommodating the second slider. The first slider is fixedly connected to the internal slider, and the moving direction of the oil cylinder is perpendicular to the moving direction of the internal slider.

[0009] In an embodiment of the utility model, a first groove with a "T" - shaped longitudinal section is arranged on the side of the first slider connected to the internal slider;

[0010] The position where the inner slider is connected to the first slider is an inlay block adapted to the first groove;

[0011] Among them, the first groove is arranged in a "T" shape to enhance the connection stability between the inner slider and the first slider and prevent the two from falling off during the movement process.

[0012] In an embodiment of the present utility model, a second groove with a "T"-shaped longitudinal section is provided on one side where the first slider is connected to the second slider;

[0013] The second groove is an inclined groove, and the length of the second groove close to the oil cylinder is greater than the length away from the oil cylinder;

[0014] Among them, the second groove is arranged in a "T" shape to enhance the connection stability between the first slider and the second slider and prevent the two from falling off during the movement process.

[0015] In an embodiment of the present utility model, an inclined inlay block adapted to the second groove is provided at the position where the second slider is connected to the first slider.

[0016] In an embodiment of the present utility model, an oil cylinder pressing plate is provided between the guiding block and the oil cylinder.

[0017] In an embodiment of the present utility model, a guiding hole allowing the output shaft of the oil cylinder to extend is provided on the oil cylinder pressing plate, and the output shaft of the oil cylinder is inlaid and connected with the second slider through the guiding hole.

[0018] In an embodiment of the present utility model, the inner diameter of the guiding hole is 1-3 mm larger than the outer diameter of the output shaft.

[0019] In an embodiment of the present utility model, a cylindrical third groove is provided on one side where the second slider is connected to the oil cylinder, and the output shaft of the oil cylinder is adapted to the third groove.

[0020] In an embodiment of the present utility model, a clamping groove is provided on the inner wall of the third groove, and a clamping block adapted to the clamping groove is provided on the side surface of the output shaft of the oil cylinder;

[0021] Among them, the setting of the clamping block is to enhance the connection stability between the second slider and the output shaft of the oil cylinder.

[0022] In an embodiment of the present utility model, the length of the second slider close to the oil cylinder is greater than the length away from the oil cylinder;

[0023] When the output shaft of the oil cylinder extends, the second slider drives the first slider and then drives the inner slider to move towards the side away from the guiding block;

[0024] When the output shaft of the oil cylinder contracts, the second slider drives the first slider, which in turn drives the inner slider to move towards the side close to the inner slider, thereby realizing the demolding of the inner slider.

[0025] In an embodiment of the present utility model, a guide groove for accommodating the second slider is provided on the side of the guide block close to the inner slider, and the depth of the guide groove is greater than the length of the second slider on the side close to the oil cylinder.

[0026] During use, when injection molding is required, the upper mold and the lower mold are placed in the injection molding machine. After closing the mold, the oil cylinder is used to control the side of the second slider away from the oil cylinder to closely adhere to the inner wall of the guide groove (ensuring that the inner slider during the production process of the washing machine handle bracket will not move towards the side close to the guide block under the action of the injection molding force); when the injection molding machine completes injection molding, pressure holding, and the mold has cooled, the demolding of the inner slider is carried out as follows:

[0027] The oil cylinder is used to control the second slider to move towards the side close to the oil cylinder. Since the second slider is obliquely fitted and connected with the first slider, and the length of the second slider on the side close to the oil cylinder is greater than the length of the side away from the oil cylinder, the movement of the second slider can drive the first slider, which in turn drives the inner slider to move towards the side close to the guide block, thereby realizing the demolding of the inner slider.

[0028] Compared with the prior art, the present utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0029] A washing machine handle bracket mold of the present utility model utilizes the principle of force decomposition to increase the clamping force of the oil cylinder on the inner slider. The inner slider during the production process of the washing machine handle bracket will not move backward under the action of the injection molding force. Therefore, a washing machine handle bracket with a small step difference and a small parting line can be obtained; at the same time, through the coordinated cooperation of the oil cylinder, the first slider, and the second slider, the demolding of the inner slider can be realized.
