The terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, or foregoing drawings of this application are used to distinguish different objects, not to describe a particular order.

[0028] In this document, the term "embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of this application. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0029] This utility model embodiment provides a combined core mold for forming a duckbill valve, such as... Figures 1-5 As shown, the duckbill valve molding assembly core mold includes:

[0030] The upper mold 20 includes a first module 21, a second module 22, and a third module 23. The first module 21 and the third module 23 are respectively engaged with the two sides of the second module 22. The first module 21 and the third module 23 have the same structure. The connecting surface of the second module 22 with the first module 21 and the third module 23 is provided with a slide rail 24. The first module 21 and the third module 23 are provided with a slide groove 25 adapted to the slide rail 24.

[0031] The lower mold 10 is connected to the second module 22. The lower mold 10, the first module 21, the second module 22 and the third module 23 are hollow inside. The upper mold 20 composed of the first module 21, the second module 22 and the third module 23 is adapted to the shape of the duckbill valve. During the gel molding process, the gel body of the duckbill valve is covered on the core mold composed of the upper mold 20 and the lower mold 10.

[0032] The steel sheet 30 and the crossbar 40 are provided. The steel sheet 30 is set on the crossbar 40 and inserted into the steel sheet gap provided on the upper mold 20. The function of the steel sheet 30 is to help the colloid form the opening of the duckbill part. The crossbar 40 provides support for the steel sheet 30 and avoids the steel sheet 30 from deforming during the processing and affecting the outlet structure.

[0033] In this embodiment, the lower mold 10 adopts a cylindrical structure, and the first module 21 and the third module 23 are symmetrical arc structures. The first module 21 and the third module 23 are assembled on the second module 22 by sliding. The first module 21 and the third module 23 slide from the end of the second module 22 away from the lower mold 10 towards the lower mold 10. During the sliding process, the slide rail 24 enters the slide groove 25 to complete the connection between the first module 21 and the third module 23 and the second module 22; thus completing the shaping. The function of the steel sheet 30 is to allow the duckbill part to form an opening during the film fusion process, avoiding the opening from being completely closed during the fusion process. The function of the crossbar 40 is to support the steel sheet 30.

[0034] During processing, the film is applied layer by layer to the surface of the mold formed by the upper mold 20 and the lower mold 10. Except for the first layer of film, the other layers of film are formed by overlapping film of different widths around the circumference. When applying the first layer of film, the film at the steel sheet 30 needs to cover the crossbar 40 and be symmetrical about the crossbar 40 to ensure that the film completely covers the steel sheet 30. The film at the other parts is applied by overlapping around the circumference. The curtain is applied layer by layer from top to bottom. Except for the first layer which is wrapped over the crossbar 40, the other curtains are not wrapped. After all materials are applied, the outermost layer is wrapped with water cloth for shaping. After shaping, it is sent to the vulcanizing tank for vulcanization. The film is fused together to form an integral structure through vulcanization.

[0035] The use of a modular assembly method for the core mold reduces the overall volume of the core mold, lowers the production difficulty of the core mold casting process, and also reduces the production cost of the core mold. The structure of this application is simple and easy to assemble, making it suitable for use in the production process of large duckbill valve structures.

[0036] The lower mold 10 and the upper mold 20 are hollow shell structures. The hollow shell structure design further reduces the weight of the core mold and lowers the production cost of the core mold.

[0037] As a preferred embodiment of this embodiment, the lower mold 10 and the upper mold 20 are hollow shell structures. The lower mold 10 and the upper mold 20 are provided with a number of reinforcing rods 51 to enhance the structural strength. The first module 21, the second module 22 and the third module 23 are all provided with openings 52, which are for easy observation of internal structural changes.

[0038] The bottom of the lower mold 10 is provided with a reinforcing ring 12 to enhance the annular support force of the lower mold 10. Several sets of handles 11 are distributed in annular array around the lower mold 10. The handles 11 serve as connection points for other traction devices to assist the core mold in completing the demolding operation, and can also be manually pulled out to complete the demolding.

[0039] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the second module 22 is provided with stepped support surfaces on both sides, and different stepped support surfaces are respectively connected to the first module 21 and the third module 23; the stepped support surface includes a support surface 221 and a side contact surface 222, and the support surface 221 and the side contact surface 222 are perpendicular to each other.

[0040] The end face where the first module 21 contacts the second module 22 is provided with a protrusion. The protrusion is provided with a first connecting surface 211. The part of the end face where the first module 21 contacts the second module 22 without the protrusion is the second connecting surface 212. The protrusion is in contact with the step support surface, and the second connecting surface 212 is in contact with the end face of the second module 22.

[0041] The slide groove 25 is provided on the first connecting surface 211 and the second connecting surface 212. The end face and side contact surface 222 of the second module 22 that contact the second connecting surface 212 are provided with slide rails 24 that are adapted to the slide groove 25.

[0042] In this embodiment, the connecting plane of the slide groove 25 and the slide rail 24 is added by constructing a stepped support surface; and the stepped structure of the slide groove 25 and the slide rail 24 is used to improve the connection strength between the first module 21, the second module 22 and the third module 23, so as to meet the production area in the production process and avoid the insufficient connection strength of the split structure from affecting the production quality.

[0043] In the actual production process, high-temperature resistant tape can be used to seal the first module 21, the second module 22 and the third module 23 to prevent excessive glue from entering the gaps and overflowing into the upper mold 20. Usually, the core mold contacts the inner wall of the duckbill valve. The flatness of the inner wall of the duckbill valve does not affect the functional application, so the surface roughness caused by using tape does not affect the performance of the final product.

[0044] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, the crossbar 40 is a galvanized steel pipe, and the crossbar 40 is provided with reinforcing ribs to enhance its strength;

[0045] The crossbar 40 is relatively long. When subjected to a large downward pulling force, the middle part deforms significantly, forming a noticeable arc. This causes material to accumulate below it, seriously affecting product quality. To reduce deformation, another identical crossbar 40 can be added 100-200mm above the crossbar 40. The two crossbars 40 are connected by several vertically tied wires, thereby increasing lateral rigidity, reducing deformation, and ensuring product quality.

[0046] It should be noted that, for the sake of simplicity, the foregoing embodiments are all described as a series of actions. However, those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the described order of actions, as some steps may be performed in other orders or simultaneously according to the present invention. Furthermore, those skilled in the art should also understand that the embodiments described in the specification are preferred embodiments, and the actions and modules involved are not necessarily essential to the present invention.

[0047] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on these embodiments, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
