DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] The present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] Example:

[0027] Reference Figure 1-Figure 1 -5. The utility model discloses a multi-cavity injection mold, comprising a bottom mold 1 and an upper mold 2. The upper end of the bottom mold 1 and the lower end of the upper mold 2 are each provided with a plurality of corresponding mold cavities 3, and a sub-mold 4 is provided inside the mold cavity 3. The corresponding positions of the bottom mold 1 and the upper mold 2 are each provided with a runner groove 5, and the position of the runner groove 5 corresponding to the mold cavity 3 is fixedly provided with a diverter pipe 6. An injection port 7 is provided on one side of the bottom mold 1 at a position corresponding to the runner groove 5, and a connecting ring 8 is provided inside the injection port 7.

[0028] In this embodiment, the sub-mold 4 is installed inside the mold cavity 3. After the bottom mold 1 and the upper mold 2 are buckled together, the device forms a mold with multiple mold cavities 3. When the bottom mold 1 and the upper mold 2 are buckled together, the two runner grooves 5 are buckled together to form a complete injection runner. During injection, the injection is guided into the interior of each sub-mold 4 through the arrangement of the diverter pipe 6 to achieve the injection molding effect.

[0029] By installing different sub-molds 4 inside the mold cavity 3, the number of injection moldings can be adjusted according to the usage scenario, thereby achieving the effect of improving the applicability of the device;

[0030] Since the auxiliary mold 4 is detachably connected to the bottom mold 1 and the upper mold 2, when a single auxiliary mold 4 is damaged after long-term use of the mold, the single auxiliary mold 4 can be replaced to reduce the loss and scrapping of the mold, thereby improving the practicality of the multi-cavity mold.

[0031] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1-5 As shown, there are two types of auxiliary molds 4. The first type of auxiliary mold 4 includes a mold bottom shell 411 and a mold upper cover 412. The mold bottom shell 411 and the mold upper cover 412 together constitute a mold with an inner cavity. The mold bottom shell 411 and the mold upper cover 412 are provided with a feed hole 413 at the position corresponding to the diversion pipe 6.

[0032] In this embodiment, when in use, the mold bottom shell 411 and the mold upper cover 412 are buckled together to form a mold with a single inner cavity, and the position of the feed hole 413 corresponds to the position of the diverter tube 6. At this time, during injection molding, the melted material enters the inner cavity formed by the mold bottom shell 411 and the mold upper cover 412 through the runner groove 5, the diverter tube 6 and the feed hole 413 to achieve the injection molding effect, and the mold bottom shell 411 and the mold upper cover 412 are respectively connected to the bottom mold 1 and the upper mold 2 by bolts.

[0033] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1-5 As shown, there are two types of auxiliary molds 4. The second type of auxiliary mold 4 also includes a support block 421. The support block 421 is solid and made of the same material as the bottom mold 1. A sealing rod 422 is provided on one side of the support block 421 at a position corresponding to the diversion pipe 6.

[0034] In this embodiment, when the number of mold cavities 3 is adjusted according to the use scenario of the injection mold, the support block 421 is installed inside the mold cavity 3, and the outer wall of the support block 421 is in contact with the inner wall of the mold cavity 3, and the blocking rod 422 is inserted into the inside of the shunt tube 6 to achieve the effect of blocking the shunt tube 6, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing injection loss;

[0035] In order to prevent the injection from entering the mold cavity 3, the cavity wall of the mold cavity 3 is supported to prevent the cavity wall of the mold cavity 3 with a lower thickness from being deformed by heat, thereby achieving the effect of protecting the multi-cavity injection mold and effectively improving the service life of the multi-cavity injection mold.

[0036] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1-5 As shown, the inner tube cavity of the injection port 7 is tapered, and the tapered end of the tube cavity of the injection port 7 faces the flow channel groove 5.

[0037] In this embodiment, since the total volume of the internal mold cavity 3 of the multi-cavity injection mold needs to be changed, the injection speed needs to be increased, so the injection port 7 needs to be interconnected with injection tubes of different thicknesses to achieve the purpose of improving the injection efficiency. Therefore, the setting of the injection port 7 with a tapered inner tube cavity is used to connect injection hot runners of different sizes to achieve the purpose of adjusting the injection speed.

[0038] In a further preferred embodiment of the present utility model, as Figure 1-5 shown, a plurality of connecting rings 8 are provided, and their sizes decrease in sequence. The outer wall of the connecting ring 8 is in fit with the inner pipe wall of the injection port 7.

[0039] In this embodiment, different connecting rings 8 are connected to injection pipes of different thicknesses. Since the outer walls of the respective connecting rings 8 are in fit with the inner pipe wall of the injection port 7, injection pipes of different thicknesses can be connected to the injection port 7, so as to achieve the effect that the multi-cavity injection mold can be applicable to injection pipes of different sizes, thereby achieving the effect of improving the applicability of the multi-cavity injection mold.

[0040] In a further preferred embodiment of the present utility model, as Figure 1-5 shown, a flange 9 is fixedly provided on one side of the upper mold 2 corresponding to the injection port 7, and a positioning groove 10 is formed at a position of the flange 9 corresponding to the injection port 7.

[0041] In this embodiment, the arrangement of the flange 9 and the positioning groove 10 facilitates the mutual correspondence of the bottom mold 1 and the upper mold 2, so as to achieve the effect of improving the stability of the bottom mold 1 and the upper mold 2 during use.

[0042] The embodiments of the present specific implementation manners are all preferred embodiments of the present utility model, and do not limit the protection scope of the present utility model accordingly. Therefore, all equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present utility model shall be covered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
