Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mold storage technology, specifically to an injection mold storage device. Background Technology
[0002] Injection molds are tools used to manufacture plastic products and are widely used in industries such as automotive, electronics, home appliances, and medical. Their main principle is to inject molten plastic raw material into the mold cavity under high pressure using an injection molding machine. After cooling and solidification, the mold is demolded to form the desired plastic part. They are typically made of materials such as mold steel and aluminum alloy, and are intricately designed, consisting of multiple parts including the core, cavity, gating system, and cooling system, ensuring uniform plastic flow and high product quality.
[0003] During the use of injection molds, the corresponding injection mold is used for production according to the actual product being processed. Unused injection molds are placed in designated locations for reuse. Currently in factories, injection molds are placed directly on the ground, which takes up too much space. Therefore, most of them are stored on shelves, with multiple layers to reduce space occupation. However, because injection molds are heavy, they are inconvenient to pick up and put down, and safety hazards may easily occur during the process. Further development and improvement are needed. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an injection mold storage device to solve the problem that existing injection mold storage devices are inconvenient for taking out and putting in injection molds, and that safety hazards are easily generated during the taking out and putting in process.
[0005] This utility model achieves the above-mentioned objective through the following technical solution: a storage device for injection molds, including a storage rack, wherein the storage rack is provided with a plurality of storage cavities at equal intervals, a U-shaped lifting support frame is slidably connected between the outer surfaces of the two sides of the storage rack in the horizontal direction, a linear transmission mechanism is provided between one end of the U-shaped lifting support frame and the outer surface of the storage rack, a slide block is slidably connected to the U-shaped lifting support frame in the horizontal direction, a transmission screw is provided between the inner surfaces of the two sides of the U-shaped lifting support frame, and a rotary bearing is provided at both ends of the transmission screw, the outer ring of the rotary bearing being connected to the U-shaped lifting support frame, the U-shaped lifting support frame in the horizontal direction... A rotary motor is installed on one outer surface. The output end of the rotary motor is connected to one end of the transmission screw. A ball nut seat is installed on the transmission screw. The longitudinal side of the ball nut seat is connected to the slide. A fixed support plate is installed on the top of the slide, and a support plug seat is installed on the bottom. A telescopic device is installed on the longitudinal side of the fixed support plate near the storage rack. A support connecting plate is installed through the fixed support plate at the output end of the telescopic device. A movable support plate is plugged into the support plug seat. An electromagnet is installed at the bottom of the movable support plate near the storage rack, and the top of the other end is connected to the bottom of the support connecting plate.
[0006] Furthermore, the inner surface of the bottom of the storage cavity is provided with a non-slip protective layer made of rubber.
[0007] Furthermore, the linear transmission mechanism is a transmission structure in which a drive motor is equipped with a transmission gear that meshes with a transmission rack.
[0008] Furthermore, the slide block and the ball nut seat, as well as the slide block and the support connector, are connected by bolts.
[0009] Furthermore, a control device is provided on one side of the storage rack, and the drive motor, the rotary motor, the telescopic device, and the electromagnet in the linear transmission mechanism are all electrically connected to the control device.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the utility model has a reasonable design, simple and stable structure, and strong practicality; the linear transmission mechanism can drive the U-shaped lifting support frame to rise and fall, so that the injection mold can be raised and lowered to the outside of the storage cavity at a specified height. With the cooperation of the transmission screw, rotary motor and ball nut seat, the slide can be moved, so that the injection mold can be moved to the outside of the storage cavity at a specified position. With the cooperation of the telescopic device and the support connecting plate, the moving support plate can be moved, so that the injection mold can move longitudinally and enter and exit the storage cavity. This not only improves the convenience of taking the injection mold out of the storage device, but also reduces the intensity of manual labor and improves the safety of taking the injection mold out of the storage device. It is suitable for widespread use. Attached Figure Description

[0018] In use, move the injection mold to be stored to the inside of the U-shaped lifting support frame. Then, control the rotary motor to drive the transmission screw to rotate, thereby adjusting the lateral position of the electromagnet. Control the telescopic device, and with the cooperation of the support connecting plate and the moving support plate, adjust the longitudinal position of the electromagnet so that it is directly above the injection mold. Then, control the drive motor in the linear transmission mechanism to work, causing the bottom of the electromagnet to contact the top of the injection mold, and control the electromagnet to work to attract the injection mold. Then, follow the above steps to lift the injection mold to the height of the designated storage cavity. Then, adjust the lateral position of the injection mold so that it faces the outside of the designated storage cavity. Next, adjust the longitudinal position of the injection mold so that it enters the storage cavity. Then, lower the injection mold so that the bottom of the injection mold contacts the inner surface of the bottom of the storage cavity, and control the electromagnet to stop working. This completes the storage operation of the injection mold. To retrieve the injection mold, simply reverse the above steps.
