Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to a mould especially valve mould manufacturing technical field, especially a trailer brake system valve mould. BACKGROUND

[0002] The brake system of the trailer is an important component to ensure the safety of driving, and in the brake system of the trailer, the valve is a key safety component, and its design and performance are directly related to the braking effect and driving stability of the trailer. When producing the valve of the brake system of the trailer, the shell part of the valve is usually pressure die cast, that is, molten metal is injected into a mould through high pressure, and after cooling, a part with a required shape is formed. The pressure die casting process has the advantages of high production efficiency, relatively low cost, and being able to produce parts with complex shape and high precision. In the automobile industry, many key parts, including the valve of the brake system of the trailer, are manufactured by using the pressure die casting process.

[0003] The existing pressure die casting process cooperates with the valve mould of the brake system of the trailer to produce the shell part of the valve. In the mould design, the structure of the valve needs to be designed correspondingly. Usually, the mould includes a moving mould and a fixed mould, and when the moving mould and the fixed mould are closed, a cavity and a runner system for feeding metal liquid are formed. The runner system is used to deliver and inject metal liquid into the cavity. The runner system usually includes an outer runner and a main runner. The outer runner is used to access metal liquid with pressure from the outside, and the main runner is in communication with the outer runner and introduces the metal liquid into the cavity.

[0004] The cavity is used to pressure die cast the outer surface of the valve, and a core is designed in the cavity to form the inner surface of the valve. In the production of the valve of the brake system of the trailer, the shell of the valve has a generally cylindrical structure, and the cylindrical structure has a chamber coaxial with the cylindrical structure. For this purpose, a core that protrudes into the cavity needs to be correspondingly arranged in the cavity of the mould. The core that protrudes into the cavity needs to be designed at the axial middle end of the cylindrical structure of the valve shell, and supporting and pushing devices are designed at both ends respectively for demoulding operation after the internal pressure casting is formed.

[0005] In the design of the mould of the valve, the metal liquid is usually fed from the circumferential side of the cylindrical structure of the valve shell, and an overflow cavity and an exhaust groove are designed on the other side. In the existing design of feeding from the circumferential side, the main runner needs to be branched when accessing the cavity to provide feeding with pressure for the forming of the pressure casting. Since the core needs to be inserted into the end surface of the valve in the axial cross section, the runner cannot be directly accessed from the side. Therefore, the main runner is usually branched into two paths, one path corresponding to the side wall of the valve and the other path corresponding to the end surface of the valve without the core protruding into the axial direction.

[0006] However, in this feeding mode, the energy of the metal liquid under pressure is continuously consumed during the injection filling process, and when flowing through and filling the axial core-inserted end cavity, there is a lack of pressure. The lack of pressure will cause shrinkage holes to occur when the die casting is finally formed, thereby affecting the final forming quality. The utility model discloses the technical scheme

[0012] Further, the bottom surface of the feeding port is an upward guiding slope, and the cross-sectional area of the flow channel port gradually decreases along the slope of the guiding slope when the pressure metal liquid flows through the guiding slope, so that the entering pressure metal liquid can be subjected to a certain pressurizing effect.

[0024] The utility model will be further described in detail in combination with the drawings. These drawings are all simplified schematic views, and only schematically illustrate the basic structure of the utility model, so that they only show the structure, direction and reference (for example, up, down, left, right, etc.) related to the utility model, which can only be used to help describe the features in the drawings. Therefore, the following detailed description is not used in a limiting sense, and the scope of the claimed subject matter is only defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.

[0025] As Figures 1 to 5 shown in the figure, the utility model discloses a trailer brake system valve mold which is the optimal embodiment.

[0026] As Figure 1 shown, the mold is used for the die casting forming of the valve of the trailer brake system, and comprises a movable mold 1 and a fixed mold 2, and a cavity and a gate system are formed after the movable mold 1 and the fixed mold 2 are closed. The cavity is provided with a core 14 used for corresponding inner surface forming of the valve. In the embodiment, the valve end face position inserted with the core 14 is arranged as the front end of the valve, and the valve end face position without the core 14 insertion is arranged as the rear end of the valve.

[0027] Specifically, the gating system comprises an outer gate and a main gate, the outer gate has a pressure metal liquid access at an outer end and is communicated with the main gate at an inner end. The main gate is divided into two paths, which are a valve bottom gate 8 and a valve peripheral gate 6. The valve bottom gate 8 is communicated with the cavity at the rear end of the valve. The valve peripheral gate 6 is communicated with the cavity corresponding to the valve peripheral side wall. The valve peripheral gate 6 has a branch at the position of the access to the front end of the cavity, and the branch is an auxiliary pressurizing gate 5, the end of the auxiliary pressurizing gate 5 is communicated with the cavity at the front end of the valve from bottom to top.

[0028] In the branch process of the gate, the flow is divided by the protruding design of the flow dividing block on the bottom surface of the gate. The flow dividing block is usually designed as a block structure with a cross section similar to a rhombus.

[0029] As shown in the drawings, Figure 2 The main gate is provided with a main flow dividing block 7 to divide the gate into two paths; the valve peripheral gate 6 is provided with a secondary flow dividing block 3 at the inlet communicated with the valve peripheral side wall, the secondary flow dividing block 3 divides the pressure metal liquid flowing into the cavity corresponding to the valve peripheral side wall into two parts, and the secondary flow dividing block 3 is located at the position of 1 / 2 of the axial length of the valve. The front end of the valve peripheral gate 6 corresponding to the position of the secondary flow dividing block 3 is provided with an auxiliary flow dividing block 4 to divide the gate into the auxiliary pressurizing gate 5.

[0030] As shown in the drawings, Figures 3 to 6 In the design of the auxiliary pressurizing gate 5, the auxiliary pressurizing gate 5 comprises a planar branch gate 9, a circumferential gate 10 and a feeding gate 12 communicated in sequence.

[0032] The feeding gate 12 is located at the front end of the valve and below the valve cavity. The feeding gate 12 is communicated with the valve cavity upward through a feeding port. The bottom surface of the feeding port is a guiding inclined surface 13 inclined upward.
