[0038] The upper die seat 2, the bottom surface of the upper die seat 2 is provided with an upper cavity 21;

[0039] The driving assembly is used to drive the upper die seat 2 to move in the vertical direction, drive the lower die seat 1 to move in the horizontal direction perpendicular to the length direction of the supporting through slot 121, and drive the jacking block 12 to move between the jacking position and the forming position, so as to drive the upper die seat 2 and the lower die seat 1 to switch between the die closing state, the die closing and opening state and the die opening state;

[0040] In the die closing and opening state, the upper cavity 21 and the lower cavity combine to form a forging cavity;

[0041] In the closed die state, the upper cavity 21 is directly above the lower cavity, and the distance between the two is greater than the depth of the upper cavity 21.

[0042] In the open die state, the lower die seat 1 is located below the side of the upper die seat 2.

[0043] When the forging die is in use, the driving assembly is used to adjust the upper die seat 2 and the lower die seat 1 to switch to the open die state, as shown in Figure 1 Specifically, the driving assembly drives the lower module 11 to move in a horizontal direction perpendicular to the support channel 121, and at the same time, the jacking block 12 moves upward to the jacking position, so that the support channel 121 on the top surface of the jacking block 12 is located above the top surface of the lower module 11. The blank 6 is placed on the support channel 121, so that the blank 6 is aligned with the broken cavity 111, and the support channel 121 is used to stably support the blank 6.

[0044] Then, the driving assembly switches the upper die seat 2 and the lower die seat 1 to the closed die state, as shown in Figure 2 Specifically, the driving assembly drives the lower module 11 to move in a horizontal direction perpendicular to the support channel 121, and at the same time, the jacking block 12 moves downward to the forming position, so that the support channel 121 on the top surface of the jacking block 12 and the broken cavity 111 on the top surface of the lower module 11 combine to form the lower cavity of the lower die seat 1, and the lower cavity is directly opposite the upper cavity 21 on the bottom surface of the upper die seat 2 above.

[0045] Then, the driving assembly switches the upper die seat 2 and the lower die seat 1 to the closed die state, as shown in Figure 3 In this state, the driving assembly drives the upper die seat 2 to move downward, so that the upper cavity 21 of the upper die seat 2 and the lower cavity of the lower die seat 1 combine to form a forging cavity. During the downward movement, the upper die seat 2 and the lower die seat 1 cooperate with each other, and the blank 6 is forged.

[0046] After the forging is completed, the driving assembly switches the upper die seat 2 and the lower die seat 1 to the open die state again, as shown in Figure 2 After the upper die seat 2 is located above the blank 6, the driving assembly switches the upper die seat 2 and the lower die seat 1 to the open die state again, as shown in Figure 1 At the same time, the jacking block 12 moves upward to the jacking position, so that the support channel 121 is lifted during the upward movement.

[0047] Compared with the prior art, in the utility model, the top of the through hole 112 is communicated with the broken cavity 111 of the top surface of the lower module 11, the inside of the through hole 112 slides along the horizontal direction of the vertical direction of the sliding groove 113, the inner wall of the sliding groove 113 increases the contact area of the blank 6, so that the blank 6 is conveniently lifted stably, is separated from the cavity wall of the broken cavity 111, the mechanical hand is conveniently grabbed, and the opportunity of the blank 6 colliding with the lower die base 1 is reduced, so that the machining precision of subsequent blank 6 and the forming quality of the final engine balance shaft product are guaranteed.

[0048] Further improvement is that the driving assembly comprises:

[0049] The top surface of the base 3 is provided with a support strip 31, the top surface of the support strip 31 is attached to the bottom surface of the jacking block 12 and comprises a first horizontal surface 311, a transition surface 312 and a second horizontal surface 313 which are sequentially and smoothly connected and the height increases, the first horizontal surface 311 and the second horizontal surface 313 are both horizontal and the length direction is perpendicular to the length direction of the support through groove 121;

[0050] The output end of the translation unit 4 is connected with the lower module 11 to drive the lower module 11 to move along the horizontal direction perpendicular to the length direction of the support through groove 121 while adjusting the height position of the jacking block 12;

[0051] The output end of the lifting unit 5 is connected with the upper die base 2 to drive the upper die base 2 to move along the vertical direction.

[0052] The base 3 is a horizontal rectangular plate, the bottom surface of the lower module 11 is attached to the top surface of the base 3, the lifting unit 5 comprises a fixed frame 51 in inverted U shape, both ends of the fixed frame 51 are fixed above the base 3, a downward hydraulic cylinder 52 is arranged on the fixed frame 51, the cylinder barrel of the hydraulic cylinder 52 is downward, the piston rod penetrates through the top of the fixed frame 51 and is fixedly connected with the top surface of the upper die base 2 at the bottom end, the top surface of the upper die base 2 is also fixedly connected with a guide rod 53 which extends along the vertical direction and is in sliding fit with the fixed frame 51, in this way, after the hydraulic cylinder 52 is started, through the sliding fit of the guide rod 53 and the fixed frame 51, the stable movement of the upper die base 2 along the vertical direction is ensured.

[0053] The projection length direction of the support strip 31 on the horizontal plane is perpendicular to the length direction of the support through groove 121, the top surface of the support strip 31 comprises three parts, wherein the transition surface 312 is an inclined surface, so that the first horizontal surface 311, the transition surface 312 and the second horizontal surface 313 are sequentially and smoothly connected while the height increases, furthermore, the bottom of the jacking block 12 is also provided with a rolling part 13, the rolling part 13 is a roller, and the roller rolls on the top surface of the support strip 31.

[0054] With the above structure, the lower module 11 is driven by the translation unit 4 to move in the horizontal direction perpendicular to the length direction of the support channel 121. During the movement, the rolling member 13 is in contact with the top surface of the support strip 31, so that the contact position of the rolling member 13 with the support strip 31 is different at different horizontal positions. When the rolling member 13 is located at the first horizontal plane 311, the jacking block 12 is in the forming position. When the rolling member 13 is located at the second horizontal plane 313, the jacking block 12 is in the jacking position, and the blank 6 can be jacked up. The rolling member 13 can reduce the friction with the support strip 31.

[0055] Further improvement is that the bottom surface of the lower module 11 is provided with a sliding groove 113 which is in sliding fit with the support strip 31. Specifically, the groove width of the sliding groove 113 is consistent with the width of the support strip 31, so that the two inner side walls of the sliding groove 113 opposite to each other are connected with the support strip 31 to ensure that the lower module 11 moves stably when the translation unit 4 operates.

[0056] Further improvement is that the top surface of the base 3 is further provided with a positioning member 32 located at both ends of the support strip 31. In the closed die state and the die alignment state, the lower module 11 is in abutment with one of the positioning members 32. In the die alignment state, the lower module 11 is in abutment with the other positioning member 32. By providing two positioning members 32, the sliding range of the lower module 11 can be limited, so that when the lower module 11 is in abutment with one of the positioning members 32, the lower die seat 1 and the upper die seat 2 are in one of the closed die state, the die alignment state and the die opening state. The translation unit 4 is a translation cylinder, the cylinder barrel of which is fixed to one of the positioning members 32, and the piston rod is fixedly connected with the lower module 11.

[0057] Further improvement is that the support channel 121 is located in the middle of the lower cavity. With the above design, the center of gravity of the blank 6 can be located above the support channel 121, which is further conducive to stably supporting the blank 6.

[0058] Further improvement is that the inner wall of the support channel 121 is semicircular in cross section. In this way, the width dimension of the support channel 121 is increased, and the contact area between the support channel 121 and the blank 6 is increased, so as to stably support the blank 6.

[0059] Further improvement is that the height difference between the first horizontal plane 311 and the second horizontal plane 313 is less than the cavity depth of the broken cavity 111. In this way, when the blank 6 is placed on the support channel 121 in the die opening state, the blank 6 can partially enter the broken cavity 111 to realize precise butt joint between the blank 6 and the broken cavity 111.

[0060] Further improvement is that the upper die seat 2 and the lower die seat 1 are both provided with two; two upper die seats 2 are integrally connected and are respectively a pre-forging upper die and a finish-forging upper die, two lower die seats 1 are integrally connected and are respectively a pre-forging lower die and a finish-forging lower die, the pre-forging upper die corresponds to the pre-forging lower die, and the finish-forging lower die corresponds to the finish-forging upper die.

[0061] After the above structure is adopted, the device can be used to simultaneously pre-forging and finish-forging two blank 6 respectively, improve the production efficiency, further improve the forging precision, and improve the forming quality of the final automobile engine balance shaft product.

[0062] The above only describes the preferred embodiments of the present application, and it should be pointed out that for ordinary skilled in the art, without departing from the technical principles of the present application, a number of improvements and refinements can be made, and these improvements and refinements should also be considered as the protection scope of the present application.
