[0042] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0043] See also Figures 1-8 , this application provides the following technical solutions:

[0044] A slider gate disengagement mechanism comprises an upper mold 1 and a lower mold 2. The upper mold 1 is a movable mold that can move toward or away from the lower mold 2 to open and close the mold. The opening and closing direction of the upper mold 1 and lower mold 2 is a first movement direction. A slider 3 is disposed between the upper mold 1 and lower mold 2. The slider 3 is slidably connected to the lower mold 2, and the sliding direction of the slider 3 is perpendicular to the first movement direction. A latent gate 5 is disposed on the slider 3. In this embodiment, the upper mold 1 is illustrated in a vertical direction, while the slider 3 slides horizontally. A first ejector assembly 6 is disposed on the lower mold 2. The first ejector assembly 6 is slidably connected to the lower mold 2, and its sliding direction is vertical. A first ejector pin 61 of the first ejector pin assembly 6 can extend into the slider 3. A second ejector pin assembly 7 is disposed within the slider 3. The second ejector pin assembly 7 includes a second ejector pin 71. When the slider 3 moves in the open mold state, the first ejector pin 61 can move upward, thereby pushing the second ejector pin 71 to eject the latent gate 5 from the bottom up.

[0045] Through the structure of this solution, the traditional ejector is divided into two parts, one of which is the first ejector assembly 6. The first ejector assembly 6 has a similar structure to the conventional ejector structure. Its first ejector 61 is driven by the ejector plate 62 set at the bottom of the lower mold 2. The ejector plate 62 rises and falls in the vertical direction, thereby driving the first ejector 61 to rise and fall synchronously. The other part is the second ejector assembly 7, in which the second ejector 71 is located below the latent gate 5 and can move laterally with the slider 3. When the mold is opened, the slider 3 first moves laterally, and during the movement, the latent gate 5 and the second ejector 71 move. As the slider 3 moves laterally, the latent gate 5 and the product are separated. When the slider 3 finishes moving, the second ejector 71 moves above the first ejector 61. At this time, the ejector plate 62 pushes the first ejector 61 upward, and the first ejector 61 then pushes the second ejector 71 upward to achieve ejection from the inside of the latent gate 5. Unlike conventional ejector pin structures, in the mold closed state, the upper end of the first ejector pin 61 is housed inside the lower mold 2 and below the slider 3, without interfering with the movement of the slider 3. This enables the combined application of the slider structure and the ejector pin structure.

[0046] Based on the above embodiment, an inclined guide rod 4 is fixedly connected to the underside of the upper mold 1. The guide rod 4 is an inclined rod with its upper end positioned toward the interior of the upper mold 1 and its lower end positioned toward the outside of the lower mold 2. The slider 3 has a through hole corresponding to the guide rod 4, through which the guide rod 4 is slidably connected to the slider 3.

[0047] The lower mold 2 is provided with a first slide groove corresponding to the slider 3. The first slide groove is a horizontal straight groove. The slider 3 and the first slide groove are slidably connected. A limiting plate group corresponding to the slider 3 is provided on the upper side of the first slide groove. The multiple limiting plates in the limiting plate group ensure that the slider 3 will not fall out of the first slide groove.

[0048] On the basis of the above embodiment, the second ejector assembly 7 further includes an ejector sleeve 73 in addition to the second ejector 71. The ejector sleeve 73 is fixedly connected to the slider 3 and has a cavity therein for accommodating the second ejector 71. The second ejector 71 is slidably connected to the ejector sleeve 73 through the cavity.

[0049] A sleeve slide groove 21 is provided on the lower mold 2 corresponding to the ejector sleeve 73. The sleeve slide groove 21 is provided on the side of the lower mold 2 facing the slider 3. The sleeve slide groove 21 is a horizontal straight groove with one end facing the inside of the lower mold 2 and the other end facing the outside of the lower mold 2. The ejector sleeve 73 and the sleeve slide groove 21 are slidably connected.

[0050] A wing plate or an annular boss is provided on the outer side of the bottom end of the sleeve 73, and the groove body of the sleeve slide groove 21 presents a "convex" structure. Through this structure, the sleeve 73 and the sleeve slide groove 21 can achieve stable lateral movement.

[0051] In the closed state of the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2, the ejector sleeve 73 is located at the inner end of the sleeve sliding groove 21; in the open state, the ejector sleeve 73 is located at the outer end of the sleeve sliding groove 21.

[0052] Based on the above implementation plan, see Figure 8 In addition to the first ejector 61, the first ejector assembly 6 also includes a first channel 63. The first channel 63 is opened on the lower mold 2. The first channel 63 is a vertical channel. The first ejector 61 and the first channel 63 are slidably connected. The upper end of the first channel 63 extends into the sleeve groove 21, and the connecting part between the first channel 63 and the sleeve groove 21 is close to the outer end of the sleeve groove 21.

[0053] On the basis of the above embodiment, the second ejector assembly 7 further includes a spring 72 for resetting, and the second ejector 71 can be reset by the spring 72. When the spring 72 is in a natural state, the second ejector 71 is not ejected.

[0054] The spring 72 is arranged inside the ejector sleeve 73, and the spring 72 surrounds the side of the second ejector 71. The bottom end of the second ejector 71 is provided with a circular bottom plate, and the lower end of the spring 72 is against the upper side of the bottom plate. The upper end of the spring 72 is against the upper side of the inside of the ejector sleeve 73. A through hole is provided at the bottom end of the ejector sleeve 73 corresponding to the first ejector 61. In the closed mold state, because the first ejector 61 and the second ejector 72 are not in contact, the lower end of the second ejector 72 is not subjected to force. Under the push of the spring 72, the upper end of the second ejector 72 is in a retracted state relative to the latent gate 5. During the mold opening process, the slider 3 moves horizontally. When the slider 3 has completed the horizontal movement, the second ejector 71 and the first ejector 61 are aligned. At this time, the ejector plate 62 moves upward, pushing the first ejector 61 into the inside of the ejector sleeve 73, and lifting the second ejector 71 from the bottom up, thereby realizing the ejection of the latent gate 5.
