Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of molding equipment technology, and in particular to a multi-cavity powder molding equipment. Background Technology

[0002] The drive structure of existing powder pressing equipment mainly includes an electrical control system, a hydraulic or pneumatic transmission system, and a mechanical actuator. The electrical control system can adjust the output of the hydraulic or pneumatic transmission system, which in turn applies pressing pressure to the powder inside the mold cavity via the mechanical actuator (such as the upper mold). While the electrical control system can precisely control the total output pressure of the hydraulic or pneumatic system, in multi-cavity systems, because there are multiple mold frames and corresponding upper molds, the electrical control system can usually only drive the upper mold base connecting multiple upper molds. It is difficult to refine the specific pressure distribution to each individual upper mold, which can easily lead to large deviations in pressure values ​​between different mold cavities. This is especially problematic in fields where the powder requires high pressure accuracy, or where the molding pressure is high and close to the limits of the mold material. Large pressure deviations can seriously affect the molding quality of the powder and may even damage the mold. Furthermore, it is not conducive to adaptive adjustments for different materials and process requirements. Utility Model Content

[0017] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following will describe this utility model in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It is hereby declared that the terms "up," "down," "left," "right," "front," "back," "inner," and "outer," etc., appearing or about to appear in this document, are based solely on the accompanying drawings and are not intended to specifically limit this utility model.

[0018] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 This utility model discloses a multi-cavity powder forming device, including a mold frame 1, an upper mold assembly 2 disposed above the mold frame 1, and a lower mold assembly 3 disposed below the mold frame 1. The upper mold assembly 2 includes an upper mold base 21 and an upper mold member 22 disposed on the upper mold base 21. The upper mold base 21 can drive the upper mold member 22. The upper mold member 22 contacts the powder to press the powder. Traditional powder forming devices usually connect the upper mold base 21 to a driving device. The driving device can only control the overall force of the upper mold base 21 and cannot control the force of each upper mold member 22. The lower mold assembly 3 includes a lower mold base 31 and a lower mold member 32 disposed on the lower mold base 31. The mold frame 1 has multiple mold cavities 11. The position and number of the upper mold members 22 correspond to the position and number of the mold cavities 11, and can be used to form powder in multiple mold cavities 11.

[0019] In this embodiment of the invention, in order to precisely distribute the pressure to each upper mold part 22, the multi-cavity powder molding equipment further includes a distribution component 4. The distribution component 4 is connected between the upper mold base 21 and the upper mold part 22, and can transmit the force of the upper mold base 21 to the upper mold part 22. The distribution component 4 includes a connector 41, the upper mold base 21 is movably connected to the connector 41, and multiple upper mold parts 22 are movably connected to the connector 41. The upper mold base 21 can transmit the force to the connector 41, and the connector 41 can distribute the force to multiple upper mold parts 22. The connector 41 can distribute the force to each upper mold part 22, thereby achieving precise distribution. Moreover, by adjustment, the pressure of each mold cavity 11 can be different to adapt to different material and process requirements, and the pressing pressure can be flexibly adjusted to improve the molding quality.

[0020] The beneficial effects of this utility model embodiment are as follows:

[0021] This utility model embodiment of a multi-cavity powder molding equipment includes a mold frame 1, an upper mold assembly 2, a lower mold assembly 3, and a distribution assembly 4. The mold frame 1 has multiple mold cavities 11. The position and number of upper mold parts 22 of the upper mold assembly 2 correspond to the position and number of mold cavities 11, and are used for the molding operation of the multiple mold cavities 11. The distribution assembly 4 includes a connector 41. The upper mold base 21 is movably connected to the connector 41. Multiple upper mold parts 22 are movably connected to the connector 41. The upper mold base 21 can transmit the force to the connector 41, and the connector 41 can distribute the force to the multiple upper mold parts 22, thereby achieving fine pressure distribution and allowing the pressure of each mold cavity 11 to be flexibly adjusted, thereby improving the molding quality.

[0022] See Figure 2 In the first embodiment, a hydraulic cylinder 411 is used to control the pressure distribution of the upper mold member 22. Specifically, the connecting member 41 includes a hydraulic cylinder 411 and a plunger rod 412 corresponding to the hydraulic cylinder 411. The hydraulic cylinder 411 contains hydraulic oil, which controls the force of the plunger rod 412, thereby controlling the force of the upper mold member 22. The bottom of the upper mold base 21 is provided with multiple hydraulic cylinders 411, and the plunger rods 412 are vertically arranged. The plunger rods 412 corresponding to the multiple hydraulic cylinders 411 are respectively connected to multiple upper mold members 22. Each upper mold member 22 corresponds to a different hydraulic cylinder 411. The upper mold base 21 can drive the upper mold member 22 to move through the hydraulic cylinders 411 and the plunger rods 412. Therefore, each hydraulic cylinder 411 can control the pressing pressure of each upper mold member 22, thereby achieving precise force distribution.

[0023] Furthermore, in the first embodiment, the distribution component 4 further includes a connecting pipe 42, through which the plurality of oil cylinders 411 are interconnected. Utilizing the principle of communicating vessels, different oil cylinders 411 are connected through the connecting pipe 42, thereby making the pressure in the plurality of oil cylinders 411 equal.

[0024] Traditional powder forming equipment uses a single upper mold base 21 to distribute pressure to multiple upper mold parts 22. The upper mold base 21 and the upper mold parts 22 are rigidly connected. The force transmission method of the upper mold base 21 is "rigid" transmission. This rigid transmission has obvious disadvantages. When there are factors such as assembly errors, material differences, wear differences of upper mold parts 22, and temperature differences, the force transmitted by the upper mold base 21 cannot be evenly transmitted to each upper mold part 22. Therefore, when differentiated transmission is required, it is not possible to accurately adjust the force difference in each upper mold part 22, resulting in the pressed finished product quality not matching the expected quality. In the first embodiment, the hydraulic oil in the cylinder 411 is used to balance the pressure in each of the upper mold parts 22, which can achieve the effect of "flexible" transmission. This flexible transmission can ensure that the difference in force between each upper mold part 22 can be quickly and "flexibly" adjusted, and it is self-adjusting, fast and accurate. When differentiated transmission is required, the force of different upper mold parts 22 can also be made different by adjusting the specifications of the cylinder 411, and this adjustment effect is also fast and accurate.

[0025] When balanced force is required, the inner diameters of the multiple hydraulic cylinders 411 are equal. Since the pressure inside each hydraulic cylinder 411 is equal, when the inner diameters of the hydraulic cylinders 411 are equal, the force driving the plunger rod 412 is equal, thereby making the pressing pressure of each upper mold 22 equal, achieving the effect of uniform pressure distribution.

[0026] When it is necessary to differentiate the pressing pressure of different upper mold parts 22, the inner diameters of two adjacent cylinders 411 can be set according to a preset ratio to obtain upper mold parts 22 with different pressing pressures. For example, in two adjacent cylinders 411, the diameter of the first cylinder 411 is 4r and the diameter of the second cylinder 411 is 2r. Thus, the cross-sectional area of ​​the inner cavity of the first cylinder 411 is 4πr*r, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the inner cavity of the second cylinder 411 is πr*r. The cross-sectional area of ​​the inner cavity of the first cylinder 411 is 4 times that of the inner cavity of the second cylinder 411. Since the pressure in the inner cavities of the first cylinder 411 and the second cylinder 411 is equal, when transmitting power, the pressing pressure obtained by the upper mold part 22 corresponding to the first cylinder 411 is 4 times that of the upper mold part 22 corresponding to the second cylinder 411. By changing the specifications of different hydraulic cylinders 411, the pressing pressure of the upper mold part 22 corresponding to different hydraulic cylinders 411 can be adjusted, thereby achieving a fine adjustment effect.

[0027] See Figure 3In the second embodiment, a linkage control method is used to distribute pressure to the upper mold member 22. Specifically, the connecting member 41 includes a connecting rod 413 and a crossbar 414. The upper part of the connecting rod 413 is fixedly connected to the upper mold base 21, and the force of the upper mold base 21 can be directly transmitted to the connecting rod 413. The lower part of the connecting rod 413 is hinged to the crossbar 414. The crossbar 414 is horizontally arranged, and the upper part of the upper mold member 22 is hinged to the crossbar 414. Two or more upper mold members 22 are distributed at intervals along the crossbar 414.

[0028] In use, the upper mold base 21 transmits the force to the connecting rod 413, which then distributes the force to each of the upper mold components 22 via the crossbar 414. Since the crossbar 414 and the connecting rod 413 are hinged, the force transmission between them is also "flexible." In this flexible transmission, if the force on one of the upper mold components 22 located on one side of the connecting rod 413 is greater, its reaction force is also greater, driving the upper mold component 22 on the other side of the connecting rod 413 to move towards further pressing the powder, thereby increasing the force on that upper mold component 22. This balances the forces on both sides of the connecting rod 413, resulting in a fine distribution of pressure. Multiple crossbars 414 can be present, all hinged to the connecting rod 413.

[0029] When force balance is required, the connecting rod 413 is hinged to the middle of the crossbar 414, and the upper mold members 22 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the connecting rod 413. At this time, the distance between the upper mold members 22 on both sides of the connecting rod 413 and the connecting rod 413 is equal. Since the torques generated by the two upper mold members 22 on the crossbar 414 are opposite in direction but equal in magnitude, the forces generated by the two upper mold members 22 are equal.

[0030] When it is necessary to differentiate the pressing pressure of different upper mold parts 22, the position of the connecting rod 413 is offset from the middle of the crossbar 414. At this time, the distance between the upper mold parts 22 on both sides of the connecting rod 413 and the connecting rod 413 is not equal. In order to achieve force balance, the torques generated by the two upper mold parts 22 on the crossbar 414 are opposite in direction but equal in magnitude. Therefore, the forces generated by each upper mold part 22 are not equal, thus generating differentiated adjustment. The accuracy of the adjustment depends on the accuracy of the position adjustment of the connecting rod 413.

[0031] The above are preferred embodiments of this utility model. It should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications are also considered to be within the protection scope of this utility model.
