Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of injection molds, in particular to an automatic water nozzle cutting mold. Background Art
[0002] The mold is an indispensable and important tool in the injection molding process. Injection molding is the process of injecting hot melt plastic into a mold cavity with the desired shape through the sprue. This injection method will cause the injected product to be connected to the sprue and cannot be automatically disconnected and separated. The manual removal of the sprue is required, which is not only labor-intensive and time-consuming, but also inefficient. In addition, a certain proportion of products will be defective, and the quality uniformity cannot be guaranteed.
[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, existing technologies offer an automatic nozzle cutting mold, comprising an upper mold, a lower mold, a product ejector, and a cutter. After the product is formed within the mold cavity, the ejector extends from the mold cavity, allowing the product to be ejected by the ejector. At this point, the cutter located on the nozzle cuts off the nozzle, eliminating the need for manual removal after demolding. This improves efficiency and yields a higher product yield. However, during the process of the ejector extending from the mold cavity, the ejector cannot accurately eject the product in a straight line, preventing the cutter from precisely separating the product and nozzle at their junction, thus still impacting the overall product quality. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an automatic water nozzle cutting mold, which can further improve the cutting accuracy of the product water nozzle, thereby further improving the production quality of the product.

[0020] Beneficial effects of the utility model:
[0021] This embodiment provides an automatic sprue cutting mold. When in use, after the first mold is opened, the cutter can move downward along a slide relative to the first mold. This allows the runner on the cutter to be vertically offset from the product cavity on the first mold. This allows the cutter to stably and accurately separate the sprue and product along the connection, further improving the precision of the product's sprue removal. Furthermore, as the cutter moves downward, its side cut surface continuously grinds the product's cut surface to ensure that no sprue residue remains on the product's cut surface. This results in better sprue removal, a smoother product cut surface, and higher product quality. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

These terms are intended solely to facilitate description and simplify operation, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the devices or components referred to must have, be constructed, or operate in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this invention. Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used solely for descriptive purposes and have no special meaning.
[0042] The technical solution provided by the present invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0043] Combine Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this embodiment provides an automatic water gate cutting mold that can be used on an injection molding machine, which mainly includes a first mold 1, a second mold 2, a cutter 3 and a driving member 4. Among them, a slide 101 is formed on the first mold 1, and one of the first mold 1 and the second mold 2 has a glue inlet 21. In this embodiment, the glue inlet 21 is opened through the second mold 2, and the glue inlet 21 is connected to the slide 101. The cutter 3 is slidably limited in the slide 101, and the cutter 3 is provided with a flow channel 32 for forming the water gate 31. The first mold 1 is provided with a product cavity 102, and the product cavity 102 is connected to the flow channel 32 through the inner wall of the above-mentioned slide 101. The driving member 4 is a prior art, and can adopt an oil cylinder or an air cylinder. The output end of the driving member 4 is transmission-connected to the cutter 3 to drive the cutter 3 to slide in the slide 101. One implementation of this embodiment is to set the first mold 1 as a dynamic mold and the second mold 2 as a static mold. After the first mold 1 is opened, the cutter 3 can relatively stagger the runner 32 and the product cavity 102 in space, so that the sprue 31 and the product 100 can be cut and separated.
[0044] It should be noted in advance that in the drawings of this application, the X-axis is set to represent the first direction and the Y-axis is set to represent the second direction. In this embodiment, the first mold 1 performs mold opening movement along the X-axis, the Y-axis corresponds to the vertical direction, and the mating surfaces of the first mold 1 and the second mold 2 are arranged vertically. One implementation of this embodiment is that the mating surface of the first mold 1 is recessed along the first direction to form a product cavity 102, the blade surface of the cutter 3 is recessed along the first direction to form a flow channel 32, and the slide 101 is extended along the second direction so that the slide 101 extends in the vertical direction.
[0045] When the above-mentioned automatic sprue cutting mold is in use, after the first mold 1 is separated from the second mold 2, the driving member 4 is started, and the cutter 3 moves downward along the slide 101 relative to the first mold 1 under the thrust of the driving member 4, so that the flow channel 32 on the cutter 3 can be offset in the vertical direction with the product cavity 102 on the first mold 1, so that the cutter 3 can stably and accurately cut and separate the sprue 31 and the product 100 along the connection, thereby further improving the cutting accuracy of the sprue 31 on the product 100. In addition, while the cutter 3 moves downward, the side section of the cutter 3 can also continuously grind the cut surface of the product 100 to ensure that there will be no sprue 31 residue on the cut surface of the product 100, thereby making the cutting effect of the sprue 31 better, the cut surface of the product 100 smoother, and the production quality of the product 100 higher.
[0046] Furthermore, in this embodiment, referring to Figure 3 A discharge port connected to the outside world is provided at the bottom of the slide 101. The debris of the nozzle 31 generated during the cutting process of the cutter 3 can fall freely onto the machine through the discharge port, thereby ensuring that the slide 101 is clean and tidy, preventing the debris of the nozzle 31 from accumulating in the slide 101 and affecting the normal operation of the cutter 3, thereby reducing the risk of failure.
[0047] The first mold 1 can be used for injection molding a plurality of products 100 at one time. Figure 3 On the first mold 1, two product cavities 102 are arranged at intervals on opposite sides of the slide 101. Each product cavity 102 is connected to the slide 101 through a flow channel 32. In this way, when the cutter 3 moves downward, each product cavity 102 and the corresponding flow channel 32 can be staggered, so that multiple products 100 can be separated from multiple sprues 31 at one time, and the side section of the cutter 3 can also grind the cross-section of multiple products 100 at the same time, thereby greatly enhancing the production efficiency of the automatic sprue cutting mold and ensuring the quality uniformity of the products 100.
[0048] In order to further improve the injection molding efficiency, refer to Figure 4 In this embodiment, the above-mentioned flow channel 32 includes a converging channel 321 and four branching flow channels 322. The converging channel 321 is connected to the glue inlet 21 and the four branching flow channels 322. The four branching flow channels 322 are connected to the four product cavities 102 in a one-to-one correspondence. Therefore, the automatic water cutting mold only needs to set one glue inlet 21 on the second mold 2 to inject glue into multiple product cavities 102, thereby effectively improving the efficiency of the injection molding process, simplifying the structure of the second mold 2, and further ensuring that each product cavity 102 can obtain molten plastic evenly and quickly.
[0049] Optionally, refer to Figure 4 、 Figure 5 The automatic watertightness cutting mold provided in this embodiment also includes a product ejector pin 5, which is relatively arranged in the product cavity 102 and can extend from the product cavity 102 to eject the product 100. One implementation method of this embodiment is to provide two first perforations 1021 through the bottom of each product cavity 102, and the two first perforations 1021 correspond to two product ejectors 5. The two product ejectors 5 can eject the product 100 located in the product cavity 102 through the two first perforations 1021. By pushing the surface of the product 100, the product ejector pin 5 can effectively eject the molded product 100 from the first mold 1, thereby preventing the product 100 from sticking in the product cavity 102 and solving the problem of the product 100 automatically falling out of the product cavity 102.
[0050] Optionally, continue with reference to Figure 4、 Figure 5 The automatic sprue cutting mold provided in this embodiment also includes a sprue ejector 6, which is arranged relative to the flow channel 32 and can extend from the flow channel 32 to push out the sprue 31. One of the methods of this embodiment is that, referring to the product ejector 5, three second perforations 1011 arranged at intervals in the vertical direction are provided through the bottom surface of the slide 101, and three third perforations 323 are provided through the corresponding positions on the flow channel 32. The third perforations 323 are provided in a one-to-one correspondence with the second perforations 1011, and the three second perforations 1011 correspond to the three sprue ejectors 6, so that the sprue ejector 6 can pass through the second perforations 1011 and the third perforations 323 in sequence and then push out the sprue 31 located in the flow channel 32. In this way, by pushing the outer wall of the sprue 31, the sprue ejector 6 can effectively push out the sprue 31, thereby preventing the sprue 31 from sticking in the flow channel 32 and reducing damage to the cutter 3.
[0051] In this embodiment, in order to further improve the injection molding efficiency, the automatic sprue cutting mold also includes a top plate, which is connected to the tail ends of the product ejector pin 5 and the sprue ejector pin 6, and is connected to the drive system on the injection molding machine. The top plate can simultaneously control the product ejector pin 5 to extend into the product cavity 102, and control the sprue ejector pin 6 to extend into the runner 32, thereby ejecting the product 100 and the sprue 31 at the same time.
[0052] Of course, it is understandable that in some other parallel embodiments, in order to effectively control the demolding order of the product 100 and the sprue 31, two top plates can also be provided, one of which is connected to the product ejector pin 5, and the other is connected to the sprue ejector pin 6, and both top plates are connected to the drive system on the injection molding machine, so that the drive system can control the product ejector pin 5 and the sprue ejector pin 6 to extend successively, thereby effectively controlling the demolding order of the product 100 and the sprue 31, which helps the staff to manage and control it.
[0053] To ensure precise alignment of the nozzle ejector pin 6 with the second through-hole 1011 and the third through-hole 323, in this embodiment, the cutter 3 has a stepped structure and includes a cutter body 301 and a stopper 302. The cutter body 301 is slidably disposed within the slideway 101, and the flow channel 32 is provided on the cutting surface of the cutter 3. It is understood that a limited stepped surface 303 is formed between the cutter body 301 and the stopper 302.
[0054] One implementation of this embodiment is that the first mold 1 includes a mold base 11 and a mold core 12, and the slide 101 includes a first channel 1012 and a second channel 1013, wherein the mold base 11 is provided with a first channel 1012 vertically through it, and a mounting groove connected to the first channel 1012 is provided on the surface, the mold core 12 is embedded in the mounting groove, and a product cavity 102 is provided on the surface of the mold core 12, and a second channel 1013 is provided vertically through it, and the first through hole 1021 is provided on both the mold base 11 and the mold core 12. The mold core 12, the second through hole 1011 is simultaneously penetrated in the first channel 1012 and the second channel 1013, the second channel 1013 is connected to the first channel 1012, and the opening depth of the second channel 1013 is smaller than that of the first channel 1012, and the width is equal to that of the first channel 1012, so that the cutter body 301 can be slidably set in the first channel 1012 and the second channel 1013, and the limit block 302 can be slidably set in the first channel 1012, so that the limit step surface 303 is arranged relative to the top surface of the mold core 12.
[0055] Reference Figure 7 When the runner 32 and the product cavity 102 are not misaligned, there is a preset distance between the limiting step surface 303 and the top surface of the mold core 12. When the cutter 3 moves downward, so that the limiting step surface 303 is in contact with the top surface of the mold core 12, the cutter body 301 can move to the set position in the second channel 1013. The three third through-holes 323 can be aligned with the corresponding second through-holes 1011 at this time, so that the three sprue ejector pins 6 can accurately pass through the corresponding second through-holes 1011 and the third through-holes 323, thereby reducing the possibility of decreased injection molding efficiency due to inaccurate positioning of the sprue ejector pins 6.
[0056] It can be understood that the interface between the product cavity 102 and the slide 101 forms a draft port 1022. In the process of the product 100 being separated from the product cavity 102, in order to facilitate the smooth removal of the product 100 from the product cavity 102, in this embodiment, the draft port 1022 is formed by referring to FIG. Figure 8 The plane where the demoulding opening 1022 is located is set at an acute angle to the bottom surface of the slide 101. For example, the angle between the demoulding opening 1022 and the bottom surface of the slide 101 is 87°. In this way, the product 100 can be better demoulded and the product 100 can be prevented from being stretched.
