Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a molding die, specifically a molding die for an earphone shell. Background Technology

[0002] The headphone shell is the outer structure that encloses the internal electronic components and battery of the headphones. It is usually made of various materials to protect the internal components and provide a good user experience. The main functions of the headphone shell include protecting electronic components, providing a comfortable wearing experience, and ensuring the overall structure and stability of the headphones.

[0003] Currently, the molds used for molding headphone shells require glue injection during operation. During glue injection, there will inevitably be excess glue, which will create sprue marks on the headphone shell. Workers will then need to use diagonal pliers to trim these sprue marks, adding an extra processing step and increasing manpower. Furthermore, relying on manual trimming of sprue marks cannot guarantee the consistency of the trimming position, making it difficult to ensure product quality. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a headphone shell molding mold. By setting a C-shaped return groove in the glue injection channel, excess glue will not accumulate at the glue injection position of the headphone shell, thus avoiding the formation of sprue marks and the need for manual trimming of sprue marks, reducing reliance on manual labor, thereby improving efficiency and product quality, and saving labor costs.

A C-shaped return groove is set on one side of the receiving chamber, so that excess glue will not accumulate at the injection position of the earphone shell, thus avoiding the formation of sprue marks, avoiding the operation of manually trimming sprue marks, reducing reliance on manual labor, thereby improving efficiency and product quality, and saving labor costs.

[0024] Please see Figure 1 One embodiment of this utility model is a headphone shell molding mold, which includes a support mechanism 1 and a mold closing mechanism 2 disposed on the support mechanism 1, and multiple sets of glue injection mechanisms 3 are disposed on the mold closing mechanism 2.

[0025] Please see Figure 2 The support mechanism 1 includes a base 11 and an upper support platform 12 fixed on the base 11. The mold closing mechanism 2 includes a lower mold base 21 and an upper mold base 22 that cooperates with the lower mold base 21. The lower mold base 21 is fixed on the upper support platform 12, so that both the mold closing mechanism 2 and the injection mechanism 3 can remain stable. In actual use, the upper mold base 22 needs an external mechanism to drive its lifting and lowering to complete the mold closing and opening. Multiple lower fixed seats 23 are fixed on the lower mold base 21 and are distributed on the outer circle of the lower mold base 21. Multiple upper sliding tables 24 are fixed on the upper mold base 22 and are distributed on the outer circle of the upper mold base 22. An inclined surface is provided at the end of the upper sliding table 24 away from the upper mold base 22, and a sliding groove 241 is provided on the inclined surface of the upper sliding table 24. The injection mechanism 3 includes a platform 31. Two positioning posts 32 are fixed on the platform 31, and a drive device 33 is fixed on the positioning posts 32. The two positioning posts 32 are respectively connected to both ends of the drive device 33, so that the two positioning posts 32 can stably support the drive device 33. The drive device 33 can be a cylinder or other type of driver. The platform 31 is fixed on the upper mold base 22. One of the output ends of the drive device 33 passes through the upper mold base 22 and abuts against the earphone shell. A lifting column 34 is provided on one side of the drive device 33. The lifting column 34 abuts against the upper end surface of the drive device 33, so that when the drive device 33 is running, its telescopic end gradually extends out of the drive device 33 and drives the body of the drive device 33 to rise, thereby driving the lifting column 34 to rise. A glue inlet block 35 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the lifting column 34.

[0026] Please see Figure 3 The glue injection mechanism 3 also includes multiple sets of positioning seats 36. Each set of positioning seats 36 has multiple seats, and the multiple positioning seats 36 are all located on the outside of the earphone shell to limit the earphone shell.

[0027] Please see Figure 4 An inclined surface is provided at one end of the lower fixed base 23 near the lower mold base 21. An adapter block 231 is fixed on the inclined surface of the lower fixed base 23. The adapter block 231 is adapted to and inserted into the slide groove 241.

[0028] Please see Figure 5 The glue injection block 35 includes a first side plate 351 and a second side plate 352 fixed on the first side plate 351. The bottoms of the first side plate 351 and the second side plate 352 are both in contact with the earphone shell, and the first side plate 351 and the second side plate 352 are both fixedly connected to another output end of the driving device 33. A glue injection channel 353 is provided between the first side plate 351 and the second side plate 352.

[0029] Please see Figure 6 At the bottom of the glue injection channel 353, there is a receiving chamber 354 and a return groove 356. A sinking groove 355 is also provided in the receiving chamber 354. The sinking groove 355 extends vertically into the lower mold base 21 to accommodate excess glue. The return groove 356 is C-shaped, and a glue inlet 357 is provided on the side of the return groove 356 away from the receiving chamber 354. The glue inlet 357 is located at the glue injection point on the earphone shell.

[0030] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 6 In the operation of this utility model, glue is injected into the glue injection channel 353. The glue falls downward and is contained in the receiving chamber 354, and then enters the sinking tank 355 to accumulate. When the glue gradually fills the sinking tank 355, it will enter the return tank 356 and finally enter the glue inlet 357 to realize the glue injection of the earphone shell. Due to the characteristics of the return tank 356, excess glue will not accumulate on the earphone shell to form a sprue, thereby avoiding the formation of sprues.

[0031] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
