[0002] Injection molding involves injecting molten plastic into a mold cavity of the desired shape. After holding the pressure and cooling to solidify, the mold is opened and the solidified plastic is ejected to produce a finished product. Injection molding is widely used in plastic parts manufacturing due to its low cost, short cycle times, simple molding process, and ease of forming complex plastic products.
[0003] The Chinese patent with announcement number CN221271870U is a side gate injection mold, including a mold body and a side gate. The side gate is opened on the outside of the upper mold cover of the mold body, and the mold body also includes a pressing and cutting mechanism. The pressing and cutting mechanism includes a vertical cutting groove, a spring, a support plate, a V-shaped groove, a continuous pouring groove, a V-shaped bar, a vertical connecting plate, an L-shaped bracket, a vibration motor, a load-bearing plate, and a rodless cylinder.
[0004] In the above scheme, a cutting structure is provided between the cavity of the mold body and the side gate to improve the efficiency of the operation and demolding at the side gate injection mold. However, it has the following disadvantages: no structure for fixing the injection head is provided at the gate of this injection mold, resulting in the injection head shaking and falling off due to the injection pressure during the injection molding process, resulting in uneven injection of the plastic melt, thereby reducing the quality of the injection molded product.

[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose of the utility model, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions: a gate structure of an injection mold, including a lower mold, the lower mold is fixed on the top surface of a placement plate, an upper mold is arranged above the lower mold, the top surface of the upper mold is provided with a pouring port, the inner wall of the pouring port is clamped with a gate sleeve, the top surface of the upper mold is provided with a fixed seat, the top surface of the fixed seat is fixed with several flexible plates, the outer wall of the flexible plate is provided with an external thread, the outer wall of the flexible plate is threadedly connected with a threaded sleeve, the top surface of the upper mold is provided with several threaded grooves, the top surface of the fixed seat is provided with several positioning holes, the inner wall of the positioning hole is slidably connected with a fixing bolt, the fixing bolt is threadedly connected to the thread groove, and the fixing bolt can facilitate the staff to install and disassemble the fixed seat, so that the staff can easily disassemble and clean the fixed seat.
[0007] Preferably, a one-way valve is fixed to the inner wall of the pouring port, which can also help maintain the pressure inside the cavity stable during the injection molding process. When the injection pressure of the injection molding machine fluctuates, the one-way valve can prevent the plastic melt in the cavity from flowing backwards, thereby maintaining the pressure inside the cavity.
[0008] Preferably, two mounting plates are fixed on the top surface of the placement plate, a sliding hole is provided on the mounting plate, a mounting groove is provided on the inner bottom surface of the sliding hole, a driving motor is fixed on the inner wall of the mounting groove, a sliding block is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the driving motor, the sliding block is slidably connected to the sliding hole, and the sliding block is fixed to one side of the upper mold.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] 1. The combination of the threaded sleeve and the flexible plate provides a stable connection after the injection head is installed, allowing the injection head of the injection molding machine to be accurately fixed at the sprue position. The stable connection prevents the injection head from shaking or shifting during the injection molding process. For example, when injecting high-pressure, high-viscosity plastic materials, an unstable injection head may cause uneven injection of the plastic melt. This structure ensures the stability of the injection head at the sprue and guarantees the quality of the injection molding. At the same time, the combination of the threaded sleeve and the flexible plate can adapt to injection heads of different sizes. The flexible plate can accurately fix injection heads of different sizes at the sprue position by adjusting the threaded sleeve, thereby improving the versatility of the entire sprue structure. The one-way valve can prevent the plastic melt in the mold cavity from flowing back into the barrel of the injection molding machine when the injection molding machine stops injecting, thereby avoiding color mixing or component imbalance affecting product quality.
[0015] Second, by driving the upper mold up and down with a drive motor, the opening and closing of the mold body can be automated, which helps improve production efficiency and reduce the workload and errors of manual operation. The upper mold can be guided by the cooperation of the limit column and the limit hole, ensuring that the upper mold moves in the predetermined direction when moving up and down, preventing the upper mold from shifting, thereby ensuring that the upper mold can accurately match the lower mold every time the mold is closed, improving production stability and product consistency. The cooling module can quickly remove the heat of the plastic, shortening the molding cycle, allowing the plastic to reach the demolding temperature in a shorter time, and improving production efficiency;
[0016] Third, the upper and lower molds can be accurately positioned by the coupling frame and coupling groove. During the assembly of the mold body, this coupling structure ensures the relative position of the upper and lower molds is accurate, preventing problems such as flash or uneven wall thickness caused by misalignment. The sealing ring can improve the sealing between the lower and upper molds. During injection molding, the upper and lower molds will be under certain pressure. Under the action of pressure, the plastic melt may seep out from the joint gap between the upper and lower molds, thus effectively preventing the plastic melt from leaking during the injection molding process.

At the same time, the one-way valve 12 can also help maintain the pressure inside the cavity stable during the injection molding process. When the injection pressure of the injection molding machine fluctuates, the one-way valve 12 can prevent the plastic melt in the cavity from flowing back, thereby maintaining the pressure inside the cavity.
