Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cooling technology, specifically to a cooling device for metal molds of automotive body panels. Background Technology
[0002] The automotive body panel metal mold cooling device is a cooling equipment used for stamping dies of automotive stamping parts. It is mainly used to cool the die during the stamping process to improve production efficiency and product quality. This device usually includes components such as a coolant tank, water pump, cooling pipe, and nozzles. It absorbs and removes the heat generated by the die during the stamping process by circulating coolant.
[0003] However, as the cooling time of automotive body panel metal molds increases, the internal cooling water will heat up. This is mainly because automotive body panel metal molds generate a lot of heat during operation, which is transferred to the cooling water through heat conduction. Specifically, when the mold performs stamping, die casting, or injection molding operations, a lot of heat is generated due to the deformation and friction of the metal material. This heat will raise the temperature of the mold. If it is not dissipated in time, it will affect the dimensional accuracy of the mold and the quality of the product, and may even damage the mold. Utility Model Content
[0004] This utility model proposes a cooling device for metal molds of automotive body panels, which solves the problem in the prior art that when the mold is stamped, die-cast, or injection molded, a large amount of heat is generated, which will cause the temperature of the mold to rise. If the heat is not dissipated in time, it will affect the size of the mold and the quality of the product.

[0006] A cooling device for a metal mold of an automotive body panel includes a base and a fabrication mechanism, wherein the fabrication mechanism is disposed on the top of the base, and further includes:
[0007] A mold table, which is fixedly connected to the top of the base, is used to manufacture automotive body panels;
[0008] A cooling circulation mechanism, disposed below the base, is used to cool the automotive body panels;

[0014] Preferably, the circulation component includes:
[0015] A water tank, wherein the end of the water supply pipe away from the water storage tank is connected to the water tank;
[0016] The water outlet pipe is connected to the outer wall of the water tank at the end away from the water supply pipe;
[0017] A condenser is installed below the base, and the input end of the condenser is connected to the other end of the outlet pipe;
[0018] A flow pipe is connected to the output end of the condenser, and the end of the flow pipe away from the condenser is connected to the outer wall of the water storage tank.
[0019] Preferably, the lifting mechanism includes:

[0024] The working principle and beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0025] In this invention, when processing automotive body panels, the worker first places the sheet material to be manufactured on a mold table. Then, water is introduced from the outside, and a cooling circulation mechanism cools the mold table and its surrounding area. The manufacturing mechanism is then activated, pressing the sheet material onto the mold table. Simultaneously, a lifting mechanism is activated, which drives the cooling circulation mechanism to move up and down for cooling. Because the cooling circulation mechanism is in close contact with the mold table, the mold table can maintain a relatively cool temperature for a long time. Compared with existing technologies, by continuously circulating water for cooling, the mold table and its surrounding area can be kept at a relatively cool temperature. Moreover, the cooling circulation mechanism does not need to be in contact with the mold or spray water onto the mold, ensuring that the mold will not easily deform. Attached Figure Description

The water in the water storage tank 201 is introduced into the inlet pipe 102 from the outside. A valve 8 is installed on the inlet pipe 102.
[0035] In this embodiment, the circulation component includes a water tank 201, a water outlet pipe 202, a condenser 203, and a circulation pipe 204. The end of the water supply pipe 103 away from the water storage tank 101 is connected to the water tank 201. The water outlet pipe 202 is connected to the outer wall of the end of the water tank 201 away from the water supply pipe 103. The condenser 203 is installed below the base 1, and the input end of the condenser 203 is connected to the other end of the water outlet pipe 202. The circulation pipe 204 is connected to the output end of the condenser 203, and the end of the circulation pipe 204 away from the condenser 203 is connected to the outer wall of the water storage tank 101. The water tank 201 surrounds the outer wall of the mold platform 2, and the top of the water tank 201 is higher than the top of the mold platform 2. The purpose is to make the water tank 201 cover the area where the mold is made, so that the mold platform 2 and the area around the mold platform 2 maintain a relatively cool temperature.
[0036] In this embodiment, the lifting mechanism includes a hydraulic cylinder 301 and a lifting rod 302. The hydraulic cylinder 301 is installed below the base 1. The lifting rod 302 is fixedly connected to the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 301, and the other end of the lifting rod 302 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the water tank 201.

[0038] In summary, the working principle of this automotive body panel metal mold cooling device is as follows: When processing and cooling the automotive body panel, the worker first places the sheet metal to be processed on the mold table 2. Then, water is introduced from the outside into the water inlet pipe 102, and the water pump 104 is started, allowing water in the storage tank 101 to flow into the water tank 201. The outer wall of the water tank 201 near the top is connected to an outlet pipe 202. When the water inside the water tank 201 exceeds the outlet pipe 202, the cold water in the water tank 201 flows through the outlet pipe 202 into the condenser 203. Through the operation of the condenser 203, the cooled water flows out from the output end of the condenser 203 into the connecting pipe. At this point, the external water supply can be shut off, allowing the stored water to cool down. The water tank 201, water supply pipe 103, water tank 201, water outlet pipe 202, condenser 203, and flow pipe 204 form a circulating cooling system, keeping the water in the water tank 201 constantly circulating and maintaining a cooling temperature. At this time, hydraulic cylinder 25 can be activated to drive the pressure plate 6 to press the sheet metal onto the mold table 2. At this time, a formed car body panel will be on the mold table 2. Then, hydraulic cylinder 25 is raised, and hydraulic cylinder 1 301 is activated to drive the lifting rod 302 to drive the water tank 201 back and forth for cooling, so that the newly formed car body panel can also be cooled by the water tank 201, accelerating the cooling speed. After cooling is completed, the worker removes the processed and cooled car body panel and puts in a new sheet metal for processing and cooling.
