Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicle production, and particularly relates to an integrally formed mold for an unmanned aerial vehicle housing. Background Art

[0002] An unmanned aerial vehicle, abbreviated as UAV, has the advantages of being flexible, fast in response, capable of unmanned flight, and having low operation requirements. It is widely used in the fields of electric power, communication, meteorology, agriculture, ocean, exploration, photography, disaster prevention and reduction, crop yield estimation, etc. Due to the characteristics of UAVs, the materials used to make UAVs are required to have high strength and light weight. Therefore, many UAV propellers are made of carbon fiber materials. Carbon fiber reinforced composite material is one of the most advanced high-performance composite materials at present, with the characteristics of light weight, high strength, high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, and excellent thermodynamic properties. When producing the UAV housing, it is necessary to wrap the carbon fiber material on the foam board, and then place the board coated with the carbon fiber material into the upper mold and the lower mold, and place the mold on the hot press for heating and pressing to form. However, in the prior art, it is inconvenient to close and open the mold for unloading the UAV housing. It is not easy to position the upper mold and the lower mold, and they are prone to dislocation under high pressure. Summary of the Utility Model

[0003] In order to solve the technical problem that it is inconvenient to close and open the mold for unloading during the production of the existing UAV housing, the utility model provides an integrally formed mold for an unmanned aerial vehicle housing, which includes a lower template and an upper template corresponding to the lower template. A mold cavity matching the UAV housing is provided on the lower template, and a protrusion corresponding to the mold cavity is provided on the upper template. Vertically arranged upper fixing through holes are respectively provided at the four corners of the top end of the upper template, and lower fixing through holes corresponding to the upper fixing through holes one by one are provided on the lower template. During use, a pin is passed through the upper fixing through hole and enters the lower fixing through hole to fix the upper template and the lower template together, avoiding dislocation of the upper template and the lower template under the action of pressure. An inclined downwardly arranged lower inclined plane is provided on the right side of the lower template, and an upper inclined plane corresponding to the lower inclined plane is provided at the right end of the upper template. The settings of the upper inclined plane and the lower inclined plane facilitate the positioning of the upper template and the lower template and facilitate the unloading of the produced UAV housing from the mold cavity, improving the working efficiency. Four conical positioning blocks are provided on the lower template, and the positioning blocks are respectively fixed at both ends of the mold cavity; positioning grooves corresponding to the positioning blocks one by one are provided on the upper template. The settings of the positioning blocks and the positioning grooves can quickly adjust the position of the upper template in place during mold closing, improving the mold closing efficiency.

[0004] Preferably, two symmetrically arranged lower fixing through holes are also provided at the middle of the top end of the lower template, and the two lower fixing through holes are respectively located on the lower template on both sides of the mold cavity. An upper fixing through hole corresponding to the lower template one by one is provided at the middle of the upper template.

[0005] Preferably, notches for facilitating demolding are provided at the four corners of the top end of the upper template, which are convenient for removing the upper template and act like handles.

[0007] Preferably, fixing slot holes for fixing and supporting are provided on the sides of both the upper template and the lower template. The fixing slot holes are provided to fix the upper template and the lower template on the fixture when manufacturing the upper template and the lower template.

[0008] Adopting the above solution has the following advantages:

[0009] The provision of the upper fixing through-hole and the lower fixing through-hole facilitates fixing the upper template and the lower template together with a pin. Under the pressure of the hot press, misalignment between the upper die and the lower die is avoided, improving the quality of the product; the provision of the positioning block and the positioning groove facilitates quickly and accurately buckling the upper template on the lower template, reducing the positioning time and improving the die-closing efficiency; the provision of the upper inclined plane and the lower inclined plane facilitates the positioning of the upper template and the lower template and facilitates removing the produced drone housing from the mold cavity, improving the working efficiency.
