[0024] The present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the drawings and detailed implementation manners:

[0025] As Figures 1 to 5 shown, a decorative shell for an electric iron includes a shell 1 and a first positioning mechanism 2 provided on opposite side edges of the shell 1. The first positioning mechanism 2 includes a plurality of limiting fins 21, and the limiting fins 21 are used to abut against the inner wall of the corresponding shell to limit the displacement movement of the edge of the corresponding shell relative to the edge of the shell 1 in the width direction of the shell 1. In the decorative shell for an electric iron of this embodiment, the limiting fins 21 of the first positioning mechanism 2 are used to limit the displacement movement of the assembled shell in the width direction of the shell when the assembled shell is docked and positioned with the decorative shell, realizing the quick and accurate positioning and fitting of the assembled shell and the decorative shell, and greatly improving the assembly efficiency of the decorative shell of the electric iron and other shell parts.

[0026] The decorative housing of this embodiment further includes a second positioning mechanism 3 disposed between the opposite side edges of the housing 1. The second positioning mechanism 3 includes multiple limiting convex edges 31 arranged along the width direction of the housing 1. The limiting convex edges 31 are used to insert into the corresponding slots of the corresponding housing to limit the misalignment movement of the corresponding housing along the length direction of the housing 1. The setting of this structure further positions the corresponding housing in the length direction of the housing 1 to further prevent its misalignment movement relative to the housing 1 in the length direction, that is, it can prevent it from sliding out of the housing 1 along the length direction of the housing 1. Among them, preferably, the second positioning mechanism 3 further includes multiple second positioning buckles 32, and each of the second positioning buckles 32 is respectively disposed between adjacent limiting convex edges 31, so that adjacent limiting convex edges 31 are spaced from each other, which can further reduce the possibility of the corresponding housing sliding out of the housing 1 along the length direction of the housing 1.

[0027] The opposite sides of the housing 1 are provided with arc-shaped edges 11 arranged oppositely along the length direction of the housing 1. The arc-shaped edges 11 are upturned upward toward the outside of the housing 1. A plurality of limiting fins 21 protrude from the arc surface of the arc-shaped edge 11 close to the inside of the housing 1 and are arranged along the length direction of the arc-shaped edge 11. A limiting notch 211 is opened at one end of each of the plurality of limiting fins 21 close to the arc-shaped edge 11. The plurality of limiting notches 211 form a limiting slot 212 for the edge of the corresponding housing to insert along the length direction of the arc-shaped edge 11. Among them, preferably, the tops of the plurality of limiting fins 21 are provided with calibration inclined surfaces 213, and the calibration inclined surfaces 213 are inclined in the direction toward the limiting notch 211. The calibration inclined surfaces 213 are used to abut against the edge of the corresponding housing to guide its sliding and insert it into the limiting slot 212. Even when the corresponding housing and the decorative housing of this embodiment are assembled at a position with a large deviation, when the edge of the corresponding housing falls on the calibration inclined surface 213, it will slide along this inclined surface to the limiting slot 212, and the operation is simple.

[0028] The first positioning mechanism 2 further includes multiple first positioning buckles 22, and the multiple first positioning buckles 22 are distributed on the arc surface of the arc-shaped edge 11 close to the inside of the housing 1. The setting of the first positioning buckle 22 can hold the edge of the corresponding housing after the edge of the corresponding housing slides and inserts into the limiting slot 212, further enhancing the stability of the positioning.

[0029] The first positioning mechanism 2 further includes a plurality of screw hole columns 23, which are vertically arranged inside the housing 1. A matching cylinder 231 is arranged on the top of the screw hole column 23, and a screw hole 232 is opened on the top of the matching cylinder 231. The height of the screw hole column 23 is higher than the tilting height of the arc edge 11. When the corresponding housing and the decorative housing of this embodiment are assembled, the screw hole column 23 will be inserted into the corresponding preset hole position of the corresponding housing to facilitate the subsequent installation of screws.

[0030] A die-casting mold comprises a fixed mold 4, a movable mold 5, a first core 6 installed on the side of the movable mold 5 facing the fixed mold 4, a second core 7 installed on the fixed mold 4 and arranged corresponding to the first core 6, and a runner 8 penetrating the movable mold 5 and the first core 6, the first core 6 and the second core 7 are combined to form a cavity, and the runner 8 connects the cavity, wherein the die-casting mold also includes a plurality of water cooling devices 41 penetrating the fixed mold 4 and the second core 7 on opposite sides, which can improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the cavity.

[0031] Furthermore, a plurality of positioning protrusions 71 are convexly provided on the peripheral edge of the second core 7, and a plurality of positioning grooves 61 are provided on the first core 6 corresponding to the plurality of positioning protrusions 71, so as to achieve precise alignment of the first core 6 and the second core 7 and improve the production quality of the die-casting products.
