[0028] The PET blow molding machine includes a frame, a drying tunnel mechanism, a conveying assembly, and a blow molding mechanism. During the blow molding process, the preform is sequentially fed into the drying tunnel mechanism and the blow molding mechanism via the conveying assembly. The blow molding mechanism consists of two parts: a first mold assembly with a heating system for heating and blowing the semi-finished product; and a second mold assembly with cooling water pipes for cooling the blown semi-finished product. In this way, the preform is first heated, then blown, and finally cooled to achieve quenching, resulting in a high-temperature resistant bottle body. This invention mainly adjusts the fixing method of the moving mold 300, so that when a small adjustment to the bottle shape is required during blow molding, it can be achieved by simply replacing the moving mold 300, without needing to adjust the complex drive structure 200. This simplifies replacement and significantly reduces replacement costs.

[0029] Reference Figures 1 to 4 The mold of this utility model is provided in the following embodiment:

[0030] A mold includes two opposing templates 100, a drive structure 200, and two moving molds 300. The drive structure 200 drives the two templates 100 to open and close relative to each other. The two moving molds 300 are detachably mounted inside the two templates 100. The moving molds 300 slide along the front-back direction inside the templates 100. The moving molds 300 do not need to be inserted from above the templates 100; they can be inserted from the side of the templates 100 without affecting other devices mounted above the templates 100. The moving molds 300 form a first blow molding mold 301 and a second blow molding mold 302 arranged side-by-side. The bottoms of the two moving molds 300 have clearance spaces for track passage. An air blowing assembly is located below the bottle mouth of the first blow molding mold 301 for air blowing; details are not elaborated here. The conveyor track transports the preform from the clearance space to the first blow molding die 301 and the second blow molding die 302 in sequence, so that the preform is heated in the first blow molding die 301 to blow into a semi-finished product, and then cooled in the second blow molding die 302.

[0031] The moving mold 300 is equipped with a heating component and a cooling component. The heating component includes a heating resistor, which ensures that the first blow molding die 301 maintains a high temperature. The cooling component includes a water pipe with cooling function located in the second blow molding die 302, which ensures that the second blow molding die 302 maintains a lower temperature. During processing, the preform is first heated and then enters the first blow molding die 301, where it is blown into a semi-finished product by the first blow molding component. The semi-finished product undergoes a heating process upon contact with the first blow molding die 301. Afterward, the semi-finished product is fed into the second blow molding die 302 and blown into a finished bottle body by the second blow molding component. The bottle body undergoes a cooling process upon contact with the second blow molding die 302, thereby achieving the quenching operation of the bottle body. It should be noted that the moving mold 300 is equipped with a pipe interface communicating with the cooling component.

[0032] The drive structure 200 includes a motor 220 and a lead screw 230 transmission structure. The lead screw 230 transmission structure includes a fixed base 210, a motor 220 mounted on the fixed base 210, a lead screw 230 extending laterally, and a nut seat fixedly disposed relative to the push template 100. The motor 220 is drively connected to the lead screw 230, the template 100 is slidably connected to the fixed base 210, and the lead screw 230 is threadedly connected to the nut seat. The motor 220 drives the two templates 100 to open and close relative to each other.

[0033] It should be noted that the drive structure 200 of this utility model is existing technology, and a cylinder, electric push rod, motor 220, and lead screw 230 can be used as the drive unit. Corresponding slide rails are provided for linear motion to improve the accuracy of the movement.

[0034] Specific detachable configuration methods. In some embodiments, refer to... Figure 4The template 100 has a first positioning step 110 on its lower side. The lower end of the moving mold 300 abuts against the first positioning step 110. However, only a portion of the lower end of the moving mold 300 is located on the first positioning step 110, leaving space for the bottle opening to facilitate connection between the bottle opening and the conveying mechanism and the blowing structure. The template 100 also has a second positioning step 120 on its side, which abuts against the side of the moving mold 300. The template 100 has multiple fixing through holes, and the moving mold 300 has multiple fixing screw holes that correspond one-to-one with the fixing through holes. During fixing, the moving mold 300 slides along the first positioning step 110 until it touches the second positioning step 120 and stops. At this point, the fixing screw holes and fixing through holes are perfectly aligned, allowing screws to pass through them sequentially for threaded connection, thus fixing the moving mold 300 within the template 100. Fixing the moving mold 300 from the side of the template 100 avoids interference from other devices above the template 100, making replacement convenient.

[0035] In some embodiments, refer to Figures 1 to 3 The template 100 has a positioning groove 130 extending front to back on its inner side. The front side of the positioning groove 130 has an insertion port. The moving mold 300 is inserted into the positioning groove 130. The mold also includes a fixing plate 140, which has an abutment block 141. This abutment block 141 can also be inserted into the positioning groove 130 and abuts against the front side of the moving mold 300. The fixing plate 140 is fixed to the side of the template 100 with screws, thus fixing the moving mold 300 to the side. The positioning groove 130 serves to position the moving mold 300, while the fixing plate 140 further secures the moving mold 300. In some other embodiments, the insertion port of the positioning groove 130 may also be located on the rear side.

[0036] The positioning groove 130 is a dovetail groove, and the moving mold 300 is equipped with a matching slider 310 to prevent the moving mold 300 from falling off the template 100, thus ensuring a more secure fixation. The matching structure of the slider 310 and the dovetail groove effectively prevents the moving mold 300 from shifting or wobbling during the insertion process, ensuring that the moving mold 300 can be accurately installed in place, thereby improving the overall assembly accuracy of the mold. Simultaneously, once the moving mold 300 is inserted into the positioning groove 130, it is difficult for it to fall off or loosen on its own, maintaining a stable connection even under significant pressure or impact, extending the mold's service life. The dovetail block and dovetail groove guide the moving mold 300 to be inserted into the positioning groove 130 more smoothly, simplifying the installation process.

[0037] Furthermore, the positioning groove 130 extends along the insertion direction of the moving mold 300 and is provided with a dovetail block, and the moving mold 300 is provided with a dovetail groove that matches the dovetail block. This further improves the fixing effect.

[0038] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above. However, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make various equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of the present invention. All such equivalent modifications or substitutions are included within the scope defined by the claims of this application.
