Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cold heading forming mold technology, specifically a high-quality copper-silver contact cold heading mold. Background Technology

[0002] Cold heading dies are the core tools in the cold heading process. Utilizing the plastic deformation properties of metal materials, pressure is applied to metal bars under ambient temperature (or low-temperature heating) conditions, causing them to undergo upsetting, extrusion, and stretching deformations, ultimately forming precision fasteners such as bolts, nuts, and rivets, or irregularly shaped parts. Existing cold heading dies are mostly integrated designs, making it impossible to directly fine-tune their radial offset on the equipment (e.g., ±0.05mm level adjustments). If product dimensions deviate, the die must be disassembled and returned to the factory for re-grinding, increasing downtime. Utility Model Content

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0020] Please see Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figures 3 and 4, this utility model provides a technical solution: a high-quality copper-silver contact cold heading mold, comprising: a mounting housing 1, which is a cavity with an opening at the bottom and on one side; an adjusting mold cavity 2 that slides vertically inside the mounting housing 1, with an adjusting bolt 3 threadedly connected to the top of the mounting housing 1, the bottom of the adjusting bolt 3 being rotatably connected to the adjusting mold cavity 2 for adjusting the overall height of the adjusting mold cavity 2; a mounting box 6 that is installed inside the adjusting mold cavity 2 by bolts, the adjusting mold cavity 2 having multiple forming mold cavities inside, and adjusting bolts 7 threadedly connected to both sides of the mounting box 6 for adjusting the position of the forming mold cavities, the adjusting mold cavity 2 having holes for the adjusting bolts 7 to slide, the forming mold cavity having holes for cold heading, and an elastic part inside the holes, the elastic part including an ejector pin 12 for ejecting the workpiece and a spring 16 for driving the ejector pin 12 to reset.

[0021] It should be noted that in this invention, the mounting housing 1 serves as the external frame of the entire mold, and the adjusting mold cavity 2 is vertically slidably mounted within the mounting housing 1. The position of the forming part of the mold can be adjusted by the traction of the adjusting bolt 3, allowing for fine-tuning of the mold cavity height during use to accommodate copper-silver contacts of different sizes or shapes. The mounting box 6 is located within the adjusting mold cavity 2 and is used to fix the forming mold cavity assembly. The mounting box 6 is fixedly connected to the adjusting mold cavity 2 by bolts, ensuring that the forming mold cavity does not shift during cold heading. Multiple forming mold cavities are provided within the mounting box, and the positions of these forming mold cavities can be adjusted by the adjusting bolt 7. The adjusting bolt 7 can precisely control the minute displacements of the forming mold cavities, allowing for fine adjustments to the mold as needed to ensure the accuracy of the forming part. The forming mold cavity is responsible for realizing the cold heading process. The mold cavity has specialized holes to receive the copper-silver contact material and perform plastic deformation. Each forming mold cavity is equipped with an elastic part, which includes an ejector pin 12 and a spring 16 that drives the ejector pin 12 to return to its original position. Spring 16 serves a reset function, returning ejector pin 12 to its original position after ejection, ready for the next operation, ensuring mold efficiency and production continuity. By adjusting bolts 1-3 and 2-7, the forming cavity can be fine-tuned during mold use. This not only improves the mold's precision but also ensures its adaptability to cold-formed parts of different sizes and shapes.

[0022] like Figure 2 , 3 As shown, limiting grooves 4 are opened on both sides of the adjusting mold cavity 2, and limiting blocks 5 that cooperate with the limiting grooves 4 are fixed to the inner wall of the mounting shell 1.

[0023] It should be noted that the limiting grooves 4 of this utility model are formed on both sides of the adjusting mold cavity 2. During the up-and-down sliding process of the adjusting mold cavity 2, the limiting grooves 4 ensure that the adjusting mold cavity will not exceed the predetermined range of motion, thereby avoiding misoperation and unnecessary errors. The adjusting bolt 3 is connected to the mounting housing 1 by threads, and the position of the adjusting mold cavity 2 is adjusted up and down by rotating the bolt. The rotation of the adjusting bolt 3 drives the adjusting mold cavity 2 to slide up and down along the limiting groove 4, thereby realizing the adjustment of the overall height position of the mold cavity. The height position of the mold cavity can be precisely adjusted by adjusting the adjusting bolt 3. Due to the cooperation of the limiting groove 4 and the limiting block 5, the adjusting mold cavity 2 can slide stably and smoothly without causing mold loss of control or positional deviation due to improper adjustment. This allows the height position of the entire molding mold cavity to be finely adjusted as needed to adapt to different copper-silver contact molding requirements. If the mold needs to adapt to different specifications of copper-silver contacts or other materials, this adjustment mechanism can quickly adapt, reducing the time for mold changing or adjustment, making the production process more efficient and flexible.

[0024] like Figure 1 , 3 As shown, the two sides of the adjusting mold cavity 2 are threaded with adjusting bolts 317, which are used to adjust the lateral position of the mounting box 6. The two sides of the mounting box 6 are provided with positioning holes that cooperate with the adjusting bolts 317. After the position of the mounting box 6 is adjusted by adjusting bolts 317 at both ends, the adjusting mold is then installed by bolts.

[0025] It should be noted that in this invention, adjusting bolts 317 are connected to the mounting box 6 via threaded connections on both sides of the adjusting mold cavity 2. The threaded connection provides a robust fixing force, ensuring that bolts 317 will not loosen or shift during adjustment, thus guaranteeing the accuracy and stability of the position adjustment. By rotating adjusting bolts 317, the mounting box 6 can be adjusted laterally along the threaded track. This allows for precise lateral adjustment of the mounting box 6, ensuring it is in the correct position within the mold. Positioning holes are provided on both sides of the mounting box 6 to mate with adjusting bolts 317. These positioning holes guide the correct rotation of adjusting bolts 317 and limit the lateral displacement of the mounting box 6. The engagement of the positioning holes with bolts 317 ensures that the mounting box will not experience unexpected vertical displacement or other instability during adjustment. Fixing after adjustment with adjusting bolts 317: Once the position of the mounting box 6 is precisely adjusted to the desired position using adjusting bolts 317, additional bolts are used to fix the mounting box 6 in place. By adjusting the fit between bolt 317 and the positioning hole, the position of the mounting box 6 can be adjusted very precisely. The rotational connection design between the positioning hole and bolt 317 effectively prevents the mounting box 6 from shifting up and down during the adjustment process, thus avoiding mold failure or production problems caused by improper positioning.

[0026] like Figure 1 ,4 As shown, the molding cavities are arranged from top to bottom as molding cavity 1 8, molding cavity 2 9, and molding cavity 3 10. One end of each of molding cavity 1 8, molding cavity 2 9, and molding cavity 3 10 is provided with a placement hole 11 for placing materials. One end of the placement hole 11 is provided with a receiving cavity 13. A sliding plate 14 is slidably connected inside the receiving cavity 13. The sliding plate 14 is fixedly connected to the ejector pin 12. The ejector pin 12 slides in the placement hole 11. Multiple limiting rods 15 are fixedly connected inside the receiving cavity 13. The limiting rods 15 are slidably connected to the sliding plate 14. A spring 16 is sleeved on the outside of the limiting rods 15.

[0027] It should be noted that in this invention, the workpiece is placed in the forming cavity 8, and the workpiece is squeezed within the forming cavity 8 by the impact pin. The material is compressed and shaped within the mold core 11. During the extrusion process, after the impact pin separates, the ejector pin 12, through its connection with the slide plate 14, and the limiting rod 15, restricts the movement range of the slide plate 14, ensuring the precise movement trajectory of the ejector pin 12 and avoiding over- or under-pressing of the material. The spring 16 ensures that the ejector pin can quickly return to its original position, thereby ensuring the repeated use and normal operation of the ejector pin, pushing the material out of the mold. Then, with the assistance of the corresponding clamping mechanism, the workpiece ejected from the forming cavity 8 passes through the forming cavity 9 and the forming cavity 10 again for stamping and cold heading.
