[0002] Automobile light guide strips are used to transmit light in a directional manner to improve the light efficiency during vehicle driving and enhance the user's visual experience. Hard light guide strips are generally made by injection molding. Side light guide strips guide the light of the light guide strips. During the transmission process, they not only transmit the transmitted light from the incident end face of the light guide strip to the output end face, but also a part of the light is transmitted from the light guide strip coating, so that the entire light guide strip forms a circle of halo, achieving a glare effect.
[0003] The injection molding machine is used to maintain pressure in the injection mold, and the automotive LED light guide strips need to be cooled and formed before they can be separated. Due to the long pressure holding and cooling time, the injection molding process efficiency is low. In addition, during the cooling process, the single-sized fixed mold core cannot quickly absorb heat and cool down due to the small size of the light guide strip mold. Summary of the Invention

A position change mechanism is arranged directly above the upper mold base. The position change mechanism performs injection molding on the multiple groups of movable mold cores arranged on the upper mold base in sequence, and then shapes the material through the movable mold core and the fixed mold core.
[0006] Preferably, the injection molding mechanism includes a drainage pipe fitting, an upper mold base, a hydraulic cylinder, a movable mold core, an injection through-hole, a liquid storage cavity and a fixed mold core.

The movable mold core is distributed in an annular manner on the outer side of the upper mold base. The upper part of the upper mold base is connected to the output end of the hydraulic cylinder. The top of the hydraulic cylinder is connected to the upper mold base.
[0007] Preferably, the upper mold base is connected to the fixed mold core through a ring-shaped movable mold core.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the automotive LED light guide strip production mold includes a lower mold base 1, an upper mold base 3 and a movable mold core 11. The movable mold core 11 is arranged directly above the lower mold base 1, and an injection molding mechanism 4 is arranged inside the lower mold base 1. The injection molding mechanism 4 shapes the injection molding material by setting multiple groups of movable mold cores 11 to complete the one-time shaping production of multiple groups of LED light guide strips. A position change mechanism 7 is arranged directly above the upper mold base 3. The position change mechanism 7 performs injection molding on the multiple groups of movable mold cores 11 set on the upper mold base 3 in sequence, and then shapes the material through the movable mold core 11 and the fixed mold core 14.
[0023] In this embodiment, the injection molding mechanism 4 includes a drainage pipe fitting 2, an upper mold base 3, a hydraulic cylinder 10, a movable mold core 11, an injection through-hole 12, a liquid storage cavity 13 and a fixed mold core 14. The drainage pipe fitting 2 is connected to one side of the liquid storage cavity 13. The liquid storage cavity 13 is distributed in an annular manner inside the lower mold base 1. The outer side of the lower mold base 1 is connected to the fixed mold core 14. The movable mold core 11 is arranged directly above the fixed mold core 14. The movable mold core 11 is distributed in an annular manner on the outer side of the upper mold base 3. The output end of the hydraulic cylinder 10 is connected directly above the upper mold base 3. The top of the hydraulic cylinder 10 is connected to the upper mold base 3.
[0024] In this embodiment, the upper mold base 3 is connected to the fixed mold core 14 through the annularly connected movable mold core 11 , and contacts the fixed mold core 14 through the movable mold core 11 .
[0025] In this embodiment, the movable mold core 11 is connected to the output end of the injection pump 5 through an injection hole 12 opened through the top, and the sealed chamber is used to cool the material through the injection hole 12 to complete the shaping of the material.
[0026] In this embodiment, the transposition mechanism 7 includes an injection pump 5, a transposition turntable 6, a drive housing 8, a motor 9, a driving gear 15 and a driven gear 16. The injection pump 5 is installed directly below the transposition turntable 6, and the shaft directly above the transposition turntable 6 is connected to the driven gear 16. The driven gear 16 is installed inside the drive housing 8. One side of the driven gear 16 is meshed with the driving gear 15. The output end of the motor 9 is connected directly above the driving gear 15. The motor 9 is installed at the top of the drive housing 8. The accuracy of the equipment control is controlled by the gear ratio of the driving gear 15 and the driven gear 16.
[0027] In this embodiment, the shifting turntable 6 is meshed with the driving gear 15 via a driven gear 16 connected to the top shaft. The driven gear 16 provided at the top of the shifting turntable 6 rotates, thereby dynamically adjusting the position of the injection pump 5 .
[0028] The actual application of this automotive LED light guide production mold includes the following work content:
[0029] Step 1: During use, coolant is injected into the interior of the lower mold base 1, and then the hydraulic cylinder 10 is directly opened. The hydraulic cylinder 10 vertically drives the upper mold base 3 and the movable mold core 11 to move vertically to the surface of the fixed mold core 14 to make contact, so that the movable mold core 11 and the fixed mold core 14 form a sealed injection cavity. Then, the output end of the injection pump 5 is engaged with the surface of the injection through-hole 12, and then the injection pump 5 injects the hot-melt material into the sealed injection cavity formed by the movable mold core 11 and the fixed mold core 14;
[0030] Step 2: After completing the shaping of the cavities of one set of movable mold core 11 and fixed mold core 14, the operator can turn on the motor 9, use the motor 9 to drive the driving gear 15 to rotate, use the driving gear 15 to drive the driven gear 16 on one side to rotate, and drive the indexing turntable 6 and the injection pump 5 to rotate through the driven gear 16. When the injection pump 5 moves to the movable mold core 11 and fixed mold core 14 on the other side, the internal cavities of the movable mold core 11 and the fixed mold core 14 are injection molded again;
[0031] Step 3: The operator injects the pump body into the liquid storage cavity 13, and the circulating liquid cools the surfaces of the movable mold core 11 and the fixed mold core 14. The liquid that has absorbed heat is directly discharged from the interior of the lower mold base 1 through the drainage pipe 2 provided on one side, thereby completing the cooling of the movable mold core 11 and the fixed mold core 14.
[0032] Step 4: After completing the injection molding and cooling of multiple groups of movable mold cores 11 and fixed mold cores 14, the operator opens the hydraulic cylinder 10 and uses the hydraulic cylinder 10 to drive the upper mold base 3 and the movable mold core 11 to move vertically upward, thereby separating the movable mold core 11 from the fixed mold core 14, thereby facilitating the direct removal of the injected LED light guide strip inside the fixed mold core 14.
[0033] Therefore, the embodiments disclosed above are only illustrative in all respects and are not exclusive. All changes within the scope of the present invention or within the scope equivalent to the present invention are included in the present invention.
