[0002] Injection molding is a widely used process for manufacturing plastic parts. It relies on the injection mold to form the shape and size of the part. The mold's tight structure is a key part of ensuring injection molding quality. It ensures that the mold is tightly closed during the injection process, preventing plastic melt leakage and ensuring the dimensional accuracy and surface quality of the molded part.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0015] The present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. The embodiments of the present invention are provided for purposes of illustration and description and are not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the present invention to the disclosed forms. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art. The embodiments are selected and described to better illustrate the principles and practical applications of the present invention and to enable those skilled in the art to understand the present invention and design various embodiments with various modifications suitable for specific applications.

[0016] like Figure 1-2The illustrated embodiment of an injection mold tightening structure comprises an arc-shaped first clamping block 1 and a second clamping block 2, wherein a first connecting plate 3 and a second connecting plate 4 are connected to both ends of the first clamping block 1 and the second clamping block 2 respectively, and the first connecting plate 3 and the second connecting plate 4 are arranged in pairs with a gap between them, a fastener is provided between the second connecting plates 4 at the ends of the first clamping block 1 and the second clamping block 2, and the fastener is located inside the gap of the second connecting plates 4, and a recessed tightening groove 5 is provided on the inner side walls adjacent to each other of the first clamping block 1 and the second clamping block 2, and two semicircular locking inner plates 6 are clamped between the two tightening grooves 5, and the symmetry axes of the two locking inner plates 6 are perpendicularly arranged to the symmetry axes of the first clamping block 1 and the second clamping block 2, and a locking outer plate 7 extending outward is installed at the edges adjacent to each other of the two locking inner plates 6;

[0017] Furthermore, the inner side walls of the two locking inner plates 6 and the locking outer plates 7 that are close to each other are straight. When locking and closing, the straight inner side walls of the two locking inner plates 6 and the locking outer plates 7 are respectively clamped at the upper and lower mold edges of the injection mold. The mold is slowly closed and pressure is applied to lock the injection mold tightly, and then the injection molding operation is performed.

[0018] A hinge shaft 8 is connected between the first connecting plate 3 at the end of the first clamping block 1 and the second clamping block 2. The hinge shaft 8 is located in the gap of the first connecting plate 3. First rotating shafts 9 inserted into the first connecting plate 3 are fixed at both ends of the hinge shaft 8. The first clamping block 1 and the second clamping block 2 are movably hinged via the hinge shaft 8 and the first rotating shaft 9.

[0019] Based on the above, the first clamping block 1 and the second clamping block 2 are movably hinged through the setting of the hinge shaft 8 and the first rotating shaft 9, and the angle between the two is adjusted to facilitate placing the components between the first clamping block 1 and the second clamping block 2 on the upper and lower sides of the injection mold and clamping them tightly.

[0020] The fastener includes a rotatable screw 10, which is located inside the gap. A second rotating shaft 11 is installed at one end of the screw 10 and is inserted into the second connecting plate 4 of the first clamping block 1. A fastening nut 12 is sleeved on the outside of the other end of the screw 10, and the fastening nut 12 is attached to the outer wall of the second connecting plate 4 of the second clamping block 2.

[0021] Based on the above, one end of the first clamping block 1 and the second clamping block 2 is flipped and rotated by the hinge shaft 8, and the other end is fastened by the rotating screw 10, specifically:

[0022] When the first clamp 1 and the second clamp 2 are flipped to a tight angle, the screw 10 is flipped so that it rotates on the second connecting plate 4 through the second rotating shaft 11, and the other end of the screw 10 is embedded between the two second rotating shafts 11 on the other side. Then the fastening nut 12 is rotated to make it fit on the outer wall of the second connecting plate 4 on the other side, and the screw 10 is tightly fitted and limited in the gap between the second connecting plates 4 of the first clamp 1 and the second clamp 2, so as to fix the angle of the first clamp 1 and the second clamp 2.

[0023] A straight limiting outer plane 13 is provided at both ends of the two locking inner plates 6, and a straight limiting inner plane 14 is provided inside the tightening groove 5. When the two locking inner plates 6 are embedded in the tightening groove 5, the limiting outer plane 13 is aligned with the limiting inner plane 14, and the limiting outer plane 13 and the limiting inner plane 14 are perpendicular to the symmetry axis of the two locking inner plates 6;

[0024] The outer walls of the two locking outer plates 7 and the outer walls of the two locking inner plates 6 are located on the same plane, and anti-slip grooves 15 are provided on the outer walls of the two locking inner plates 6.

[0025] Furthermore, on the basis of the above, when the upper and lower molds of the injection mold are merged and tightened, the two locking outer plates 7 and the locking inner plate 6 are respectively attached to the edges of the upper and lower molds, so that the outer wall with the anti-slip groove 15 is attached to the upper and lower molds, and then the first clamp 1 and the second clamp 2 are respectively combined on both sides of the two locking outer plates 7 and the locking inner plate 6 in the vertical direction, so that the symmetry axis of the locking inner plate 6 is vertically arranged with the symmetry axis of the first clamp 1 and the second clamp 2, and the limiting outer plane 13 and the limiting inner plane 14 will fit each other. As the first clamp 1 and the second clamp 2 are merged and tightened, the two locking outer plates 7 and the locking inner plate 6 located in the tightening groove 5 will be fixed and the tightening of the upper and lower molds of the injection mold will be achieved.

[0026] Furthermore, since the angles of the two locking outer plates 7 and the locking inner plate 6 when they are tightened are perpendicular to the first clamp block 1 and the second clamp block 2, the pressure on the locking outer plate 7 is different from the direction when the first clamp block 1 and the second clamp block 2 are opened. This can ensure that during the mold closing and locking process, the locking inner plate 6 and the locking outer plate 7 will not be bounced outward due to excessive pressure, reducing the phenomenon of injection molding being affected by dislocation caused by pressure on the mold during the molding process, thereby improving the injection molding quality of the product.

[0027] Obviously, the embodiments described are only some of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field and related fields without making any creative efforts should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention. Structures, devices, and operating methods not specifically described and explained in this utility model shall be implemented in accordance with conventional means in the field unless otherwise specified or limited.
