[0031] Embodiment 1
[0032] AsFigure 1 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6 and Figure 7 as shown in the drawings;
[0033] The embodiment provides a medical mask forming die, and the specific structure is as follows:
[0034] The upper die 1 and the lower die 2 are both made of die steel, and the surfaces are subjected to nitriding treatment to improve the hardness and corrosion resistance of the die; after the upper die 1 and the lower die 2 are combined, a cavity completely matched with the profile of the medical mask is formed, thereby ensuring the precision of the product size.
[0035] The elastic ejection assembly is arranged in the lower die 2 and comprises separable spring ejectors 3 and a cavity insert 7; in the embodiment, the spring ejectors 3 are arranged in an annular array on the bottom of the cavity insert 7 and are uniformly distributed at equal intervals, thereby ensuring force balance; the spring ejector 3 comprises a separable ejector part and an ejection spring; a plurality of limiting grooves for placing the ejection spring are arranged on the plane of the lower die 2 in close contact with the lower plane of the cavity insert 7, the diameter of the limiting groove is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the spring, the difference is between 0.5 cm and 1 cm, so that the ejection spring can be easily compressed and rebounded in the limiting groove, and the stable transmission direction of the force is ensured; the top end of the ejector part abuts against the bottom of the cavity insert 7 when the die is combined, and the bottom end abuts against the ejection spring; when the die is first installed, the ejection spring is installed in the limiting groove, and then the ejector part is put in; at this time, the ejector part is partially located in the limiting groove to play a positioning and guiding role, and is partially exposed outside the limiting groove to be pressed down by the bottom of the cavity insert 7 when the die is combined, thereby compressing the ejection spring, realizing the combination of the die, and when the die is opened, the rebounding force of the ejection spring is transmitted through the ejector part to eject the cavity insert 7 by a small distance, thereby realizing the demolding of the mask. Through the structure design, on the one hand, the installation is convenient and the subsequent replacement of the spring ejector 3 is also easy, and on the other hand, the function is easy to implement, the ejection of the mask product can be realized through a very low-cost structure, and the problem of mask damage caused by the traditional demolding mode is avoided.
[0036] The lower bottom surface of the cavity insert 7 is provided with a protruding cylindrical block 8, and the plane of the lower die 2 in close contact with the lower bottom surface of the cavity insert 7 is provided with a circular groove 9 matched with the protruding cylindrical block 8, thereby realizing the preliminary positioning of the cavity insert 7 during installation and improving the stability during overall die combination.
[0037] As shown in the drawings, Figure 3 the neck part of the upper die 1 is provided with air inlet holes 5 in a non-molding key area, the number of the air inlet holes 5 is two, the air inlet holes 5 are symmetrically distributed, the hole diameter is 1.8 mm, the air inlet holes 5 are sealingly connected with the gas injection pipeline of the supercritical foaming equipment, and the supercritical fluid is uniformly injected into the cavity.
[0038] As shown in the drawings, Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the parting surface edge of the mold is provided with a micro exhaust groove, and the micro exhaust grooves on the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2 form a conical exhaust hole 4 after the mold is closed. The conical exhaust hole 4 has four numbers, respectively extending to the southeast, southwest and northwest. The conical exhaust hole 4 continuously extends along the edge of the cavity until it is connected with the outside of the mold. The inner diameter of the conical exhaust hole 4 is 0.2mm, and the outer diameter is 1.2mm. The inner side is communicated with the cavity, and the outer side is communicated with the atmosphere, realizing efficient exhaust and preventing overflow.
[0039] As shown in Figure 3 , Figure 6 and, Figure 7 , the inner top of the upper mold 1 is integrally formed with a cylindrical limiting groove 6. The axis of the cylindrical limiting groove 6 coincides with the center axis of the cavity insert 7. When the mold is closed, the cylindrical limiting groove 6 can precisely act on the center of the cylindrical part at the top of the cavity insert 7, and push the cavity insert 7 to move downward stably. Figure 7 As shown in Figure 7 , the lower bottom surface of the cavity insert 7 can be further provided with a protruding cylindrical block 8. The lower mold 2 is further provided with a circular groove 9 on the plane which is in close contact with the lower bottom surface of the cavity insert 7, so as to realize the preliminary positioning of the cavity insert 7 during installation and improve the stability during overall mold closing. The cavity insert 7 is made of hard alloy material, and the forming surface is mirror polished to reduce the adhesion between the forming surface cover and the cavity insert 7, and to improve the smoothness of demolding and the surface finish of the product.
[0040] The working process of the embodiment is as follows:
[0041] Green body placement: the foaming material green body is placed in the cavity inside the upper mold 1. The size of the green body is slightly smaller than the cavity to ensure that there is expansion space after the mold is closed.
[0042] Mold closing: the upper mold 1 is controlled to move downward. After the cylindrical limiting groove 6 contacts the top of the cavity insert 7, the cavity insert 7 is pushed to move downward along the vertical direction. The spring ejector pin 3 is compressed until the bottom of the cavity insert 7 is in close contact with the positioning surface in the lower mold 2, and the parting surface of the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2 is in close contact, and the cavity is closed.
[0043] Supercritical foaming: the supercritical foaming equipment injects supercritical CO2 fluid into the cavity through the gas inlet hole 5. The supercritical fluid uniformly penetrates the green body and makes it expand to fill the cavity. The air and excess fluid in the cavity are discharged through the conical exhaust hole 4. At the same time, according to the conventional foaming parameters, the foaming treatment is carried out.
[0044] Demolding: after the foaming is completed, the upper mold 1 is controlled to move upward. After the cylindrical limiting groove 6 is separated from the cavity insert 7, the top of the cavity insert 7 loses the downward pressure. At this time, the multiple spring ejector pins 3 simultaneously rebound, pushing the cavity insert 7 to move upward by a small distance. The cavity insert 7 drives the forming surface cover to separate from the cavity of the lower mold 2. The operator directly takes down the cover, completing a molding cycle.
[0045] The medical mask supercritical foaming forming convenient demolding, efficient exhaust and uniform air intake are realized by the structure design, and the production efficiency is effectively improved.
[0046] Finally, it should be noted that: the above is only the preferred embodiment of the present application, and is not intended to limit the present application, although the foregoing embodiments of the present application are described in detail, for those skilled in the art, it still can be modified, or part of the technical features of the equivalent replacement. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included within the scope of the present application.
