Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to injection mold technical field especially is related to an injection mold which can facilitate flexible swing of silica gel finished product after mold opening to carry out demolding. BACKGROUND

[0002] As the mainstream way of producing silica gel products, injection mold forming process provides an effective way for realizing large-scale and efficient production. Traditionally, the demolding operation of the inner hollow spherical silica gel product adopts a relatively simple and direct method. After mold opening, the staff directly takes out the molded product with the internal mold core, and then tries to separate the mold core from the silica gel product by means of air blowing, and finally pulls the product off the mold core.

[0003] However, this traditional demolding method has exposed many difficult-to-ignore drawbacks in long-term practice. On the one hand, in the process of taking out the mold core, due to the lack of precise and gentle separation mechanism, the mold core is easily subjected to collision and scratching. The mold core is mostly a precisely manufactured component, and even a slight damage on the surface will seriously affect the quality of the subsequent injection molded product. For example, slight scratches may cause the appearance of line defects on the inner wall of the silica gel product, damaging the flatness of the product appearance; more seriously, the damaged part may change the flow state of the silica gel in the mold cavity, causing uneven thickness of the product, greatly weakening the mechanical properties and sealing effect of the product. Frequent collisions also accelerate the wear of the mold core, greatly shortening its service life, and the enterprise has to frequently purchase new mold cores, significantly increasing the production cost.

[0004] On the other hand, temperature factors also disturb the traditional process. When the mold core is taken out together with the product, the heat is quickly lost in the process of air blowing operation and exposure to the workshop environment, and the temperature drops significantly. The temperature of the mold core has strict requirements for silica gel injection molding, and appropriate temperature can ensure the smooth flow and filling of silica gel material in the mold cavity, thereby obtaining high-quality products. The mold core in low-temperature state will cause the viscosity of silica gel material to rise rapidly, and the flowability will be hindered, which cannot be evenly distributed, and the finally formed product is prone to defects such as material shortage and bubbles. Therefore, after each demolding, in order to ensure the normal development of the next injection molding process, the mold core has to be heated to the appropriate temperature again, which not only slows down the overall production rhythm and reduces the production efficiency, but also increases the energy consumption cost, which is contrary to the current trend of energy saving and emission reduction and efficient production in the manufacturing industry.

[0005] In view of these problems existing in the traditional demolding method, an innovative injection mold forming silica gel product technology scheme is urgently needed, which can realize the non-destructive separation of the mold core and the product, and maintain the stability of the mold core temperature, thereby improving the product quality and production efficiency.
