Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of gasket molds, and more particularly to a gasket mold with a positioning device. Background Technology

[0002] In the multi-way valve of the thermal management system of new energy vehicles, the water valve sealing gasket is used to seal the opening and closing of the water valve. The failure of the water valve sealing gasket will directly lead to the failure of the multi-way valve, resulting in liquid leakage and instability of the working state of the multi-way valve, which in turn affects the normal operation of the thermal management system. The water valve sealing gasket is usually manufactured using a vulcanizing machine. The sealing gasket mold in the vulcanizing machine is used to shape the rubber that is introduced.

[0003] refer to Figure 1 The water valve sealing gasket includes a sealing gasket body 4, a PTFE sheet 5, and several support skeletons 6. The PTFE sheet 5 is located inside the sealing gasket body 4. Several support skeletons 6 are distributed along the length direction of the sealing gasket body 4. The length direction of the support skeletons 6 is parallel to the width direction of the sealing gasket body 4. The length of the support skeletons 6 is less than the width direction of the sealing gasket body 4. The support skeletons 6 are used to improve the strength of the water valve sealing gasket.

[0004] refer to Figure 2 Currently, the sealing gasket mold includes a lower mold 2 and an upper mold 1. Several mounting blocks 7 are provided on the lower mold 2. The mounting blocks 7 are used to place the support frame 6. At this time, the length of the support frame 6 exceeds the width of the water valve sealing gasket, and the PTFE sheet 5 is placed inside the lower mold 2.

[0005] After the product is vulcanized, the excessively long part of the support frame needs to be cut off. The cutting process is cumbersome and inefficient. Utility Model Content

[0006] In order to reduce subsequent vulcanization processes and improve work efficiency, this application provides a sealing gasket mold with a positioning device.

[0007] This application provides a sealing gasket mold with a positioning device, which adopts the following technical solution:

[0008] A sealing gasket mold with a positioning device includes an upper mold, a lower mold, and two skeleton positioning blocks. The two skeleton positioning blocks are distributed along the width direction of the sealing gasket body. The skeleton positioning blocks are disposed on the lower mold. The skeleton positioning blocks are provided with a plurality of retaining tubes. The supporting skeleton is engaged in the retaining tubes. The retaining tubes extend into the sealing gasket body. The upper mold is used to form a cavity with the lower mold and the two skeleton positioning blocks to form the shape of the sealing gasket body.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the clamping tubes on the two skeleton positioning blocks are used to install the support skeleton. The clamping tubes can penetrate into the sealing gasket body, so that the original width of the sealing gasket body can be fixed in the mold. After the vulcanization operation is completed, the workers can pull the clamping tubes out from the support skeleton. At this time, the support skeleton that is shorter than the width of the sealing gasket body is located in the sealing gasket body, and there is no need to perform subsequent cutting operations, which reduces the subsequent vulcanization process and improves work efficiency.

[0010] Optionally, the lower mold has two snap-fit ​​slots, which correspond to two skeleton positioning blocks. The skeleton positioning blocks are provided with snap-fit ​​blocks, which snap-fit ​​with the snap-fit ​​slots.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the snap-fit ​​groove on the lower mold is used to snap-fit ​​with the skeleton positioning block, so that the skeleton positioning block is fixed on the lower mold and the position of the support skeleton relative to the lower mold remains unchanged, which improves the consistency of the support skeleton position during the subsequent production of the sealing gasket body.

[0012] Optionally, the lower mold is provided with two support plates, and the support plates are provided with support grooves for cooperating with the clamping pipe.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the support groove on the support plate is used to position the clamping pipe, so that the clamping pipe position is consistent. Since the support frame is a slender rod, the support groove is used to reduce the twisting of the slender support rod and improve the production quality of the subsequent sealing gasket body.

[0014] Optionally, the snap-fit ​​groove extends along the thickness direction of the lower mold, and the support groove extends along the thickness direction of the lower mold.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the support frame is first installed on the two frame support blocks, and then the frame support blocks are installed on the lower mold. The frame support blocks are installed along the extension direction of the snap-fit ​​groove. During this process, the snap-fit ​​tube moves with the frame support block and enters the support groove. The structure of the lower mold is more reasonable and easier for the staff to operate.

[0016] Optionally, the lower mold is provided with two limiting blocks, the limiting blocks being used to abut against the two sides of the PTFE sheet along the length direction, and the support plate being used to abut against the two sides of the PTFE sheet along the width direction.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, PTFE sheets are used to improve the sealing performance, corrosion resistance and compression rebound rate of the gasket body. Before the vulcanization operation, the PTFE sheets are placed in the lower mold. The PTFE sheets are positioned by the support plate and the limiting block, so that the position of the PTFE sheets in the gasket body is consistent, thereby improving the quality of the gasket body.

[0018] Optionally, the upper mold includes a middle mold and an extrusion block. The upper surface of the middle mold is provided with a holding groove for holding the rubber material. The bottom of the holding groove is provided with a through hole that passes through the middle mold. The extrusion block is provided with a pressing block for squeezing the rubber material in the holding groove.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the middle mold is used to cooperate with the lower mold. The rubber material is placed in the holding groove of the middle mold. When it is necessary to produce the sealing gasket body, the extrusion block moves towards the middle mold. The pressure block on the extrusion block cooperates with the holding groove. The rubber material in the holding groove enters between the middle mold and the lower mold through the through hole to form the sealing gasket body. The upper mold has a simple structure and is easy for workers to operate.

[0020] Optionally, the skeleton positioning block is provided with a positioning groove, which extends along the thickness direction of the lower mold, and the middle mold is provided with a positioning post, which is used to engage with the positioning groove.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, when producing the sealing gasket body, the middle mold first cooperates with the lower mold, and the positioning post on the middle mold engages with the positioning groove on the skeleton positioning block, thereby determining the position of the middle mold and the skeleton positioning block, and further improving the production quality of the sealing gasket body.

[0022] Optionally, the lower mold is provided with a grip groove to facilitate handling by workers.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, the grip groove makes it easier for workers to transfer or adjust the mold.

[0024] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0025] 1. The retaining tubes on the two skeleton positioning blocks are used to engage the support skeleton, and the retaining tubes extend into the sealing gasket body. The retaining tubes are used to fix the support skeleton that is shorter than the width of the sealing gasket body.

[0026] 2. The limiting block is used to limit the position of the PTFE sheet. Attached Figure Description
