Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to die-casting slider technology, and more particularly to a slider with a movable insert. Background Technology
[0002] In the production process of die castings, in order to meet specific design requirements, it is often necessary to process structural features with sunken steps on the castings. Since the step is formed inside the casting, according to conventional mold design, after the casting solidifies and cools, this part of the structure will be tightly stuck in the mold and cannot be directly demolded by the mold opening action.
[0003] To machine a recessed step on a die casting, CNC machining (Computerized Numerical Control) is usually used to further process the die casting to create the structural feature of the recessed step. Although CNC machining can ensure that the casting meets the design requirements, it also increases the number of production steps, production costs, and machining time. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the aforementioned shortcomings, the purpose of this invention is to propose a slider with movable inserts, which solves the problems of multiple production steps, high production costs, and long processing time in the production of sinking steps for die-cast parts.
[0005] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a slider with a movable insert, the slider comprising a slider body, a movable insert, an elastic reset member, and a fixing member;
[0006] The elastic reset member is disposed between the slider body and the movable insert, and the movable insert is mounted to the slider body by the fixing member;
[0007] The slider body is provided with a mounting through hole, and the movable insert is mounted in the mounting through hole in a way that compresses the elastic reset member;
[0008] In the vertical direction, the projection of the movable insert is complementary to the projection of the mounting through hole, and the movable insert extends beyond the bottom of the slider body;
[0009] The slider body is used to contact the workpiece to be processed during the die casting process;
[0010] The movable insert is detachably mounted on the slider body and is used to form a sunken step structure in the die casting during the die casting process;
[0011] The elastic reset element is used to move the movable insert upward.
[0012] Furthermore, the movable insert includes a first boss and a second boss, with the bottom of the first boss located at the bottom of the movable insert and the bottom of the second boss located at the top of the first boss.
[0013] Furthermore, when the movable insert is circular, the mounting through hole is also designed to be circular; or when the movable insert is square, the mounting through hole is also adjusted to be square.
[0014] Furthermore, the movable insert also includes a base plate, which is fixedly disposed at the tail of the movable insert. In the horizontal direction, the projection of the mounting through hole is smaller than the projection of the base plate.
[0015] The slider body also includes a limiting groove, which is located next to the mounting through hole, and the base plate is mounted in the limiting groove.
[0016] Furthermore, the slider body also includes a receiving groove, which is disposed in the limiting groove, and the elastic reset member is installed in the receiving groove.
[0017] Furthermore, the slider body also includes a groove disposed in the lower region of the slider body, the groove being used to allow the slider body to move laterally on the die casting.
[0018] Furthermore, the slider body also includes a clearance portion, which has an arc structure and is located at one end of the slide groove. The clearance portion is used to fit a die-cast part with an arc structure on its surface.
[0019] Furthermore, the slider body also includes a blocking part, which is disposed at the other end of the groove and is used to limit the displacement range of the slider body in the die casting.
[0020] Furthermore, the slider also includes a power device, the power output end of which is movably connected to the slider body, and the power device is used to drive the slider body to perform lateral displacement.
[0021] Furthermore, the elastic reset element is a spring, or the elastic reset element is a rubber pad.
[0022] The technical solution provided by this utility model can include the following beneficial effects: when the slider slides laterally to the die casting, the movable insert can accurately form a sinking step on the die casting when it moves downward. The movable insert can be moved upward by the elastic reset member, and the slider can slide laterally away from the die casting. This technical solution solves the problems of multiple production steps, high production cost and long processing time in the processing of sinking steps in die casting. Attached Figure Description

[0033] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4 The technical solution of this utility model will be further illustrated through specific implementation methods.
[0034] In a preferred embodiment of this application, a slider with a movable insert is provided. The slider includes a slider body 1, a movable insert 2, an elastic reset member 3, and a fixing member 4. The elastic reset member 3 is disposed between the slider body 1 and the movable insert 2. The movable insert 2 is mounted to the slider body 1 via the fixing member 4. The slider body 1 has a mounting through hole 11, and the movable insert 2 is mounted in the mounting through hole 11. In the vertical direction, the projection of the movable insert 2 is complementary to the projection of the mounting through hole 11, and the movable insert 2 extends beyond the bottom of the slider body 1. The slider body 1 is used to contact the workpiece during die casting. The movable insert 2 is detachably mounted to the slider body 1 and is used to form a recessed step structure in the die casting 5 during the die casting process. The elastic reset member 3 is used to move the movable insert 2 upward.
[0035] Specifically, after the die casting of part 5 is completed, the fixing part 4 is released, the elastic reset part 3 releases its potential energy, lifts the movable insert 2, and removes the slider body 1 from the die casting of part 5, thus realizing product demolding; the fixing part 4 is a screw, buckle, or other connecting part; since the movable insert 2 extends beyond the bottom of the slider body 1, and in the vertical direction, the projection of the movable insert 2 is compatible with the projection of the mounting through hole 11, it means that the shape and size of the movable insert 2 and the mounting through hole 11 are matched, achieving seamless installation and ensuring the stability of the movable insert 2 in the mounting through hole 11, effectively preventing the movable insert 2 from shaking or shifting during processing; therefore, when the movable insert 2 contacts the die casting of part 5 during the die casting process, it can accurately form a sunken step in the die casting of part 5, ensuring the accuracy and consistency of the processed sunken step. This technical solution solves the problems of multiple production steps, high production costs, and long processing time in processing sunken steps in die casting parts.
[0036] In an optional embodiment, the movable insert 2 includes a first boss 21 and a second boss 22, with the bottom of the first boss 21 disposed at the bottom of the movable insert 2, and the bottom of the second boss 22 disposed at the top of the first boss 21.
[0037] Specifically, when the die-casting machine's pressure head applies pressure, the slider body 1 and the movable insert 2 move downwards as a whole, making close contact with the workpiece. Due to the protruding design of the first boss 21 and the second boss 22, they form two recessed steps of different depths on the surface of the workpiece. Specifically, the first boss 21 first contacts the workpiece, forming a shallower recessed step; subsequently, as pressure continues to be applied, the second boss 22 also forms a deeper recessed step on the workpiece. Through the protruding design of the first boss 21 and the second boss 22, the movable insert 2 can be machined into a complex structure with two recessed steps on the workpiece, reducing production costs and processing time.
[0038] In an optional embodiment, when the movable insert 2 is circular, the mounting through hole 11 is also designed to be circular; or when the movable insert 2 is square, the mounting through hole 11 is also adjusted to be square.
[0039] Specifically, the shape of the mounting through hole 11 is consistent with the shape of the movable insert 2 to ensure that the movable insert 2 can be smoothly installed into the slider body 1. When a circular or arc-shaped recessed step needs to be formed, the circular design of the movable insert 2 can provide a smoother and more uniform contact surface; the square design is suitable for forming a rectangular or square recessed step. The circular and square designs of the movable insert 2 improve the processing accuracy and consistency, ensuring the quality of the die-cast part 5.
[0040] In an optional embodiment, the movable insert 2 further includes a base plate 23, which is fixedly disposed at the tail of the movable insert 2. In the horizontal direction, the projection of the mounting through hole 11 is smaller than the projection of the base plate 23. The slider body 1 further includes a limiting groove 12, which is disposed next to the mounting through hole 11, and the base plate 23 is mounted in the limiting groove 12.
[0041] Specifically, the design of the base plate 23 allows the movable insert 2 to be more stably mounted on the slider body 1. Since the projection of the base plate 23 is outside the projection of the mounting through hole 11, the base plate 23 can effectively prevent the movable insert 2 from moving excessively or falling off within the mounting through hole 11, thereby improving the overall stability and helping to reduce the processing error caused by the movement of the movable insert 2, thus improving the accuracy and dimensional consistency of the processed sunken step structure.
[0042] In an optional embodiment, the slider body 1 further includes a receiving groove 13, which is disposed in the limiting groove 12, and the elastic reset member 3 is installed in the receiving groove 13.
[0043] Specifically, the receiving groove 13 provides a clear installation position for the elastic reset member 3, ensuring that the elastic reset member 3 will not be misaligned or damaged during installation and use. The receiving groove 13 provides a relatively closed and protected environment for the elastic reset member 3, extending the service life of the elastic reset member 3.
[0044] In an optional embodiment, the slider body 1 further includes a groove 14 disposed in the lower region of the slider body 1, the groove 14 being used to allow the slider body 1 to move laterally on the die-cast part 5.
[0045] Specifically, the design of the slide groove 14 allows the slider body 1 to easily press against the die-cast part 5 and move laterally. Before processing begins, the slider body 1 can quickly and accurately move laterally to a predetermined position on the die-cast part 5. After processing, it can quickly move laterally away from the die-cast part 5 to prepare for the next processing or part removal. This efficient movement method reduces waiting time during processing and improves overall production efficiency.
[0046] In an optional embodiment, the slider body 1 further includes a clearance portion 15, which has an arc structure and is disposed at one end of the slide groove 14. The clearance portion 15 is used to cooperate with the die-cast part 5, which has an arc structure on its surface.
[0047] Specifically, the arc structure of the avoidance part 15 can perfectly match the curvature of the surface of the die-cast part 5, so that the slider body 1 can move smoothly on the die-cast part 5 without interference or damage due to shape mismatch.
[0048] In an optional embodiment, the slider body 1 further includes a blocking portion 16 disposed at the other end of the slide groove 14, the blocking portion 16 being used to limit the displacement range of the slider body 1 on the die-cast part 5.
[0049] Specifically, the blocking part 16 limits the displacement range of the slider body 1 on the die-cast part 5, ensuring that the slider body 1 follows a predetermined trajectory at each step of the processing, thereby improving the efficiency and reliability of the processing flow. In addition, the blocking part also helps to reduce unnecessary friction and collision between the slider body 1 and the die-cast part 5, thereby extending the service life of the equipment.
[0050] In an optional embodiment, the slider further includes a power device, the power output end of which is movably connected to the slider body 1, and the power device is used to drive the slider body 1 to perform lateral displacement.
[0051] Specifically, the power device is a hydraulic cylinder, which enables the automated movement of the slider body 1, reducing reliance on manual operation. This not only improves the efficiency of the processing process but also reduces labor costs. The power device also reduces the physical burden on operators and decreases fatigue and errors caused by prolonged manual operation.
[0052] In an optional embodiment, the elastic reset member 3 is a spring, or the elastic reset member 3 is a rubber pad.
[0053] Specifically, both springs and rubber pads have good elasticity and adaptability, which can meet the reset requirements of the movable inserts 2 of different sizes and shapes. Furthermore, the use of springs or rubber pads is low-cost and easy to implement, which helps to reduce production costs and improve overall economic efficiency.
[0054] The embodiments of this utility model have been described in detail above. Specific examples have been used to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of this utility model. The description of the above embodiments is only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core ideas of this utility model. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope based on the ideas of this utility model. Therefore, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
