It should be noted that the upper bracket female mold 200 and the lower bracket female mold 201 are arranged side by side, the upper bracket male mold 300 and the lower bracket male mold 301 are arranged side by side, the bottom surface of the shaping groove 202 is a shaping surface, and there are various groove-shaped structures and protrusion structures on the shaping surface to form the required shape on the molded product. The number of both the first shaping column 203 and the second shaping column 303 is multiple, and the multiple first shaping columns 203 are arranged close to the side wall of the shaping groove 202, and each first shaping column 203 and each second shaping column 303 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence. After the front mold assembly and the rear mold assembly are closed, the upper bracket female mold 200 and the upper bracket male mold 300 form an upper bracket injection cavity, and the lower bracket female mold 201 and the lower bracket male mold 301 form a lower bracket injection cavity. The hot melt material flows into the upper bracket injection cavity and the lower bracket injection cavity and cools to form a product. The top surface of the shaping protrusion 302 abuts against the bottom surface of the shaping groove 202. The setting of the shaping protrusion 302 can form through holes arranged in a honeycomb shape on the molded product. The setting of the first shaping column 203 and the second shaping column 303 can form a connection structure on the molded product, so that the mold can form the upper bracket and the lower bracket at one time, which is beneficial to improving the production efficiency of the mold.
[0036] It should be added that the front mold assembly further includes a front mold fixing plate 100 and a front mold backing plate 101.
