Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mold technology, and in particular to an integrated heating electric heating tube structure and a heating mold core assembly. Background Technology

[0002] An electric heating element is a tubular electrical component consisting of a metal tube, a spiral resistance wire, and crystalline magnesium oxide powder. The high-temperature resistance wire is evenly distributed within a seamless stainless steel tube (metal tube), and the gaps are filled with crystalline magnesium oxide powder, which has excellent thermal conductivity and insulation properties. When current flows through the high-temperature resistance wire, the generated heat diffuses through the magnesium oxide powder to the surface of the metal tube, and then is transferred to the heated object or the air, achieving the heating purpose.

[0003] Electric heating elements are widely used in the mold industry, primarily for auxiliary heating of molds. In cable accessory mold structures, electric heating elements are mostly used to heat the mold core. Traditional heating methods involve creating a hole in the mold core with dimensions similar to the electric heating element's outer size, inserting the heating element into the hole, and heating the mold core through contact heat transfer. This method has high heat transfer efficiency, but it is only suitable for mold structures where the mold core is always fixed in the mold and cannot be disassembled during demolding. For mold structures where each mold core must be removed, auxiliary heating usually requires adding a transition piece with a positioning function between the mold core and the electric heating element. This transition piece has a hole with dimensions similar to the electric heating element's outer size. The tube is inserted into the hole, and the combination of the transition piece and the heating tube is then inserted into the heating hole of the mold core, forming a three-in-one combined heat transfer heating structure of the mold core, the transition piece, and the electric heating tube. The transition piece is fixed on the mold template and serves to fix the mold core. Although this structure solves the problem of guiding the mold core, there are two heat transfer processes. The heat is first transferred from the electric heating tube to the transition piece, and then from the transition piece to the surface of the mold core. This heat conduction method is inefficient and has a large heat loss, which has a significant impact on the heating stability and heat transfer efficiency. Moreover, this type of structure is only suitable for larger mold cores. Smaller specifications cannot meet the requirements due to insufficient design space. Utility Model Content

[0007] A heating element is installed inside the accommodating cavity, and the heating element is used to generate heat when energized.

[0008] A heat-conducting element is filled in the accommodating cavity and is wrapped around and connected to the outside of the heating element. The heat-conducting element is used to transfer the heat emitted by the heating element to the tube body.

[0009] According to an embodiment of the present invention, an integrated heating electric heating tube structure has at least the following beneficial effects:

This eliminates the need for a transition piece between the tube body and the mold core, improving heat transfer efficiency and heating stability. This embodiment is suitable for mold structures where the mold core needs to be disassembled. By eliminating the need for a transition piece between the tube body and the mold core, the diameter of the heating holes on the mold core can be made smaller, making it suitable for small-sized, detachable mold core structures and offering greater versatility.

[0014] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the mold template is provided with a positioning groove for the connecting flange to extend into, and a plurality of threaded holes are located on the bottom wall of the positioning groove.

[0015] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the end of the tube body away from the connector is chamfered.

[0016] According to some embodiments of the present invention, a guide slope is provided at the end of the tube body away from the connector.

The tube body can be inserted into a perforated mold core, directly transferring heat to the mold core.

This eliminates the need for a transition component between the tube body and the mold core, improving heat transfer efficiency and heating stability.

[0042] See Figure 5 , Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of a prior art electric heating tube structure. The electric heating tube includes a tube body 100, a heating element 200, and a heat-conducting element 300. The tube body 100 is a metal tube, the heating element 200 is a spiral resistance wire, and the heat-conducting element 300 is crystalline magnesium oxide powder. High-temperature resistance wires are uniformly distributed inside the metal tube, and crystalline magnesium oxide powder, which has good thermal conductivity and insulation properties, is filled in the gaps. When current flows through the high-temperature resistance wire, the generated heat diffuses through the magnesium oxide powder to the surface of the metal tube, and then is transferred to the heated object or the air, achieving the heating purpose.

[0043] See Figure 6 , Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a prior art heated mold core assembly. The mold core 600 has heating holes 610. A transition piece 700 is provided between the mold core 600 and the electric heating tube. The transition piece 700 has a hole with dimensions similar to the electric heating tube. The heating tube is inserted into the hole of the transition piece 700. The combination of the transition piece 700 and the heating tube is inserted into the heating hole 610 of the mold core 600, forming a three-in-one combined heat transfer structure of the mold core 600, the transition piece 700, and the electric heating tube. The transition piece 700 is fixed to the mold template 500, serving to fix the mold core 600. There are two heat transfer processes: heat is first transferred from the electric heating tube to the transition piece 700, and then from the transition piece 700 to the surface of the mold core 600. This heat conduction method is inefficient and has a large heat loss.

[0044] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 This utility model discloses an integrated electric heating tube structure, comprising a tube body 100, a heating element 200, and a heat-conducting element 300. The tube body 100 has a receiving cavity 110, one end of which is open. A connector 120 is provided at the open end of the tube body 100 for positioning and mounting the tube body 100. The heating element 200 is installed within the receiving cavity 110 and is used to generate heat when energized. The heat-conducting element 300 fills the receiving cavity 110 and surrounds the outside of the heating element 200, transferring the heat emitted by the heating element 200 to the tube body 100.

[0045] The heating element 200 generates heat when energized, which is then transferred to the tube body 100 via the heat-conducting element 300. The tube body 100 can be inserted into the perforated mold core 600, directly transferring heat to the mold core 600. A connector 120 is provided at one end of the tube body 100, which positions and guides the mold core 600. This eliminates the need for a transition piece 700 between the tube body 100 and the mold core 600, improving heat transfer efficiency and heating stability. This embodiment is applicable to mold structures where the mold core 600 needs to be disassembled. By eliminating the need for a transition piece 700 between the tube body 100 and the mold core 600, the diameter of the heating holes 610 on the mold core 600 can be made smaller, making it suitable for small-sized detachable mold core 600 structures and offering greater versatility.

[0046] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The integrated heating element structure also includes a conductive wire 400, which is electrically connected to the heating element 200. The conductive wire 400 is used to connect an external power source to power the heating element 200. The length of the conductive wire 400 can be set according to actual usage requirements.

[0047] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The integrated heating element structure also includes a mold template (500), which is detachably connected to the connector 120. The mold template (500) has a wire hole 510 through which the conductive wire 400 passes. The tube body 100 is connected to the mold template 500 via the connector 120, and one end of the tube body 100 can be inserted into the heating hole 610 of the mold core 600 to fix the mold core 600.

[0048] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The connector 120 includes a connecting flange with multiple connecting holes 121. The mold template 500 has multiple threaded holes 520, each corresponding to a connecting hole 121. Screws pass through the connecting holes 121 and are installed in the threaded holes 520. The connecting flange is connected to the mold template 500 by screws, ensuring a secure connection and facilitating easy assembly and disassembly.

[0049] The connecting flange is 15mm-20mm thick, and the connecting flange and the mold template are assembled with a clearance fit.

[0050] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3The mold template 500 is provided with a positioning groove 530 for the connecting flange to extend into. Multiple threaded holes 520 are located on the bottom wall of the positioning groove 530. The connecting flange can be positioned and installed in the positioning groove 530, making the assembly of the connecting piece 120 and the mold template 500 more convenient.

[0051] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The end of the tube body 100 away from the connector 120 is chamfered. This reduces burrs at the end of the tube body 100, reduces friction between the tube body 100 and the inner wall of the heating hole 610 of the mold core 600, and facilitates the insertion of the tube body 100 into the heating hole 610 of the mold core 600.

[0052] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 A guide slope 130 is provided at the end of the tube body 100 away from the connector 120. The distance from the connection point of the guide slope 130 and the side wall of the tube body 100 to the end of the tube body 100 away from the connector 120 is 'a', with a range of 20mm-30mm. The angle between the vertical section of the guide slope 130 and the axis of the tube body 100 is 'b', with a range of 15°-20°. The guide slope 130 facilitates the insertion of the tube body 100 into the heating hole 610 of the mold core 600.

[0053] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 The heating element 200 includes a resistance wire, which is arranged in a U-shape. The heat-conducting element 300 includes magnesium oxide powder. The integrated heating element has an outer layer made of copper or aluminum transition material 700 (tube body 100) instead of the traditional seamless stainless steel tube, and the inner layer is directly filled with magnesium oxide powder and resistance wire. The tube body 100 has an overall "T" shape.

[0054] See Figure 1 and Figure 4 According to an embodiment of the present invention, a heating mold core assembly includes an integrated heating electric heating tube structure and a mold core 600. The mold core 600 has heating holes 610 for inserting a tube body 100, with a connector 120 protruding from the heating holes 610. The clearance between the upper part of the tube body 100 and the heating holes 610 is 0.2mm-0.4mm, and the wall thickness of the upper part of the tube body 100 is 5mm-8mm.

[0055] The heating element 200 generates heat when energized, which is then transferred to the tube body 100 via the heat-conducting element 300. The tube body 100 can be inserted into the perforated mold core 600, directly transferring heat to the mold core 600. A connector 120 is provided at one end of the tube body 100, which positions and guides the mold core 600. This eliminates the need for a transition piece 700 between the tube body 100 and the mold core 600, improving heat transfer efficiency and heating stability. This embodiment is applicable to mold structures where all mold cores 600 need to be disassembled. Without the need for a transition piece 700 between the tube body 100 and the mold core 600, the diameter of the heating holes 610 on the mold core 600 can be made smaller, making it suitable for small-sized detachable mold core 600 structures and offering greater versatility.
