[0017] In the scheme of the application, the injection mold 1 is a mold used in the existing injection molding process of injection-molded parts, and its shape is determined according to the injection-molded part and is not limited. Of course, according to actual needs, nut pre-buried holes are opened on the surface of the injection mold 1 corresponding to the positions where the nut 7 needs to be pre-buried on the surface of the injection-molded part, the nut 7 is positioned through the pre-buried holes, and the nut 7 is embedded into the injection-molded part.

[0018] The locating rod 2 is used, and the locating sleeve 3 is fixed outside the locating rod 2, and the lower end of the locating sleeve 3 is provided with the limiting plate 4 extending outward, the limiting plate 4 is used to abut against the outside of the nut pre-buried hole of the injection mold 1, the nut 7 to be pre-buried is connected to the lower end of the locating rod 2 through threads, and the upper end of the nut 7 contacts the lower end of the locating sleeve 3. At this time, the lower end of the locating rod 2 is flush with the lower surface of the nut 7, or the lower end of the locating rod 2 is slightly lower than the lower surface of the nut 7. When the nut 7 needs to be pre-buried, the nut 7 assembled on the lower end of the locating rod 2 is inserted into the nut pre-buried hole together with the locating rod 2 and the locating sleeve 3, at this time, the lower end of the locating sleeve 3 is butted with the nut pre-buried hole, and the limiting plate 4 contacts the side wall of the injection mold 1 to limit the axial position of the locating rod 2. Since the nut 7 contacts the lower end face of the locating sleeve 3, and the lower end face of the locating sleeve 3 is flush with the inner surface of the injection mold 1 according to the design, the nut 7 can be pre-buried in the injection-molded part, and the surface of the nut 7 is flush with the surface of the injection-molded part.

[0019] In the normal injection molding process, because the molten plastic is injected into the mold by pressure to flow, and maintain a certain pressure. So in the positioning rod 2 by the air pipe 5 into the high pressure gas, the air pipe 5 is connected to the high pressure gas source. The amount of high pressure gas can be controlled by the air pressure regulating valve 6, to control the air pressure inside the positioning rod 2. The positioning rod 2 inside through the hole 8 with the limit sleeve 3 inside the communication, so the gap between the limit sleeve 3 and the positioning rod 2 can also be maintained at the required pressure. Because the nut 7 and the lower end of the positioning rod 2 is connected with the outer thread process, there is a certain gap, and the gap is connected with the gap between the limit sleeve 3 and the positioning rod 2, so the gas flow will enter the gap between the nut 7 and the positioning rod 2, and maintain the set pressure, so that in the injection molding, under the action of the air pressure between the nut 7 and the positioning rod 2, the molten plastic is unable to enter the gap inside, will not affect the internal thread of the nut 7. The pressure gauge 11 is arranged on the limit sleeve 3, which can directly measure and display the air pressure in the gap between the limit sleeve 3 and the positioning rod 2, so as to avoid the air pressure being too large to cause the gas flow into the injection mold 1, affecting the injection effect. Of course, the pressure gauge 11 and the air pressure regulating valve 6 can be linked through the controller, and the air pressure can be kept stable under the cooperation of the controller set pressure value and the pressure gauge 11.

[0020] The positioning rod 2 in the range corresponding to the nut 7 is also provided with a plurality of through holes 8, and the through holes 8 penetrate the side wall of the positioning rod 2 at the outer thread. The positioning rod 2 corresponding to the nut 7 is also provided with a through hole 8, so that the gas flow can directly enter the gap between the nut 7 and the positioning rod 2 through the through hole 8, so as to ensure that the air pressure in the gap between the nut 7 and the positioning rod 2 is kept in a stable state, effectively preventing the molten plastic from entering the gap.

[0021] The inner wall of the lower end of the limit sleeve 3 is provided with an inward annular protrusion 9, which is fixedly connected between the outer wall of the positioning rod 2, and a plurality of air holes 10 are arranged on the annular protrusion 9, which penetrate the annular protrusion 9 along the axial direction of the positioning rod 2.

[0022] The design of the annular protrusion 9 makes the connection between the limit sleeve 3 and the positioning rod 2 more firm and stable, the sealing performance of the top is better, and the positioning of the nut 7 is more accurate. The air holes 10 can keep the upper and lower gaps of the annular protrusion 9 in communication, and the air pressure is stable.
