Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lens housing manufacturing technology, and in particular to an injection molding mold for a lens housing. Background Technology

[0002] A mold generally consists of two parts: an upper mold and a lower mold. These two parts can be separated or joined together. When separated, the part is removed, and when joined together, the blank is injected into the mold cavity to form the part. Demolding is a very common action in the actual processing of molds. It is generally achieved through an ejection mechanism. Existing ejection mechanisms use ejector rods to achieve the ejection action, but their ejection force is limited. For plastic parts with complex structures that are difficult to demold (such as products with internal threads, undercuts, etc.), ejection is difficult.

[0003] Therefore, a telescopic ejector has emerged in the prior art, which includes an inner insert and an outer insert fitted on the inner insert. The inner insert and the outer insert can slide relative to each other. The internal thread of the product is formed by a mechanical internal telescopic structure. The telescopic ejector generally uses a push plate structure for ejection. However, for lens housings, the lens housing includes an annular top wall and peripheral side walls that extend obliquely downward and outward from the annular top wall. It is difficult to set a push plate structure in the mold under this structure. Therefore, how to quickly demold the lens housing has become a key research direction in the industry.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to design a new technical solution to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
