Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mold technology, specifically a mold structure for in-mold controlled two-color injection molding. Background Technology

[0002] Two-color injection molding refers to the molding process of injecting two different materials into the same mold, thereby creating parts formed from two different materials. Sometimes the two materials are different colors, and sometimes they have different hardness, thus improving the product's aesthetics and assembly performance.

[0003] A two-color injection mold core structure and a two-color injection mold are proposed in Chinese patent application number CN202210857072.2. By setting up inclined guide pillars, a first slider, a first bent pin and cavity inserts, the cavity conversion in the mold can be completed during the mold opening process without the need for a separate hydraulic cylinder drive mechanism, which reduces the mold manufacturing cost, shortens the two-color injection molding time cycle and improves the injection processing efficiency of the mold.

[0004] However, existing technologies for producing two-color products require a mold opening and rotation process when using injection molding, which significantly lengthens the injection molding cycle and necessitates the installation of a turntable on the injection molding machine, thus reducing work efficiency. Therefore, this utility model proposes a mold structure for in-mold controlled two-color injection molding. Utility Model Content
