Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of processing technology for concealed door handles of new energy vehicles, and in particular to a mold casting system for concealed door handles that eliminates surface weld lines. Background Technology

[0002] With the increasing popularity of new energy vehicles, concealed door handles are gradually becoming standard equipment. This design not only enhances the vehicle's technological feel and improves interior sealing, but also effectively reduces wind resistance. Currently, concealed door handles are typically manufactured using injection molding, where they are cast into a mold on an injection molding machine. The surface quality requirements for the front of concealed door handles are relatively high. The gate of the mold gating system is usually located on the side of the concealed door handle cavity, where impact forces are easily generated during casting. This can easily lead to surface weld lines on the concealed door handle, resulting in substandard surface appearance quality and affecting the product's pass rate. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In order to improve the surface quality of concealed door handles, this utility model proposes a mold casting system for concealed door handles to eliminate surface weld lines.

[0004] To achieve the objective, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a mold casting system for eliminating surface weld lines for a concealed door handle, comprising a gating system, a main runner, a branch runner, and a gate, wherein the gating system is connected to the main runner, characterized in that: the branch runner is an arc-shaped flow channel, one end of the branch runner is connected to the main runner, the other end of the branch runner is connected to the gate, and the gate is located at the bottom of the cavity of the concealed door handle.

[0005] Further limitations on the above technical solution: there are two cavities for the concealed door handle, arranged symmetrically from left to right; there are two runners and gates, also arranged symmetrically from left to right; this arrangement enables one casting system to cast two concealed door handles simultaneously, improving production efficiency;

[0006] Further limitations on the above technical solution: cold slug cavities are provided at the bottom of both ends of the main channel to prevent cold material from entering the cavity and affecting the quality of the plastic part, and to allow the molten material to smoothly fill the cavity.

[0007] Further clarification of the above technical solution: the gating system, main runner, branch runner, and gate are manufactured separately and then connected to each other; this arrangement simplifies the setup of the gating system, facilitates manufacturing, and reduces costs.

[0008] Further refinement of the above technical solution: connecting lugs are provided at both ends of the main channel, and the branch channels are connected to the main channel through the connecting lugs; this configuration can more reliably connect the branch channels.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: In this utility model, the runner adopts an arc-shaped runner, which buffers the impact force during casting; the gate is located at the bottom of the cavity of the hidden door handle, avoiding material feeding at the top of the cavity of the hidden door handle; thus, the surface of the hidden door handle is not affected during casting, ensuring the surface quality of the hidden door handle and preventing surface weld lines.

[0015] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0016] Example 1: Combination Figures 1-4 As shown, a mold gating system for eliminating surface weld lines in a concealed door handle includes a gating system 1, a main runner 4, a branch runner 3, and a gate 6. The gating system 6 is connected to the main runner 4. The branch runner 3 is an arc-shaped channel. One end of the branch runner is connected to the main runner, and the other end of the branch runner is connected to the gate. The gate 6 is located at the bottom of the concealed door handle cavity 2. Cold slug wells 5 are provided at the bottom of both ends of the main runner to prevent cold slug from entering the cavity and affecting the quality of the plastic part, and to allow the molten material to fill the cavity smoothly.

[0017] Example 2: Combination Figures 1-4 As shown, there are two concealed door handle cavities 2, arranged symmetrically on the left and right; there are two runners 3 and two gates 6, also arranged symmetrically on the left and right. This arrangement enables one casting system to cast two concealed door handles simultaneously, improving production efficiency.

[0018] Example 3: Combination Figures 1-3 As shown, connecting lugs 4-1 are provided at both ends of the main channel, and the branch channel is connected to the main channel through the connecting lugs; this arrangement can connect the branch channel more reliably.

[0019] In this invention, the gating channel 1, main channel 4, branch channel 3, and gate 6 are manufactured separately and then connected to each other; this arrangement simplifies the setup of the gating system, facilitates manufacturing, and reduces costs.

[0020] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: The liquid material passes through the pouring channel, the main channel, the branch channel, and the gate in sequence to the bottom of the cavity of the concealed door handle.
