[0030] Working principle: In actual use, the aluminum alloy billet is first placed in the positioning and clamping cavity 4 of the lower mold 2. At this time, the control terminal 3 is activated, and the control terminal 3 sends an energizing command to the electromagnet 67. After the electromagnet 67 is energized, it generates a magnetic field. The magnetic field acts on the magnetorheological fluid 62 in the annular groove 61. Under the influence of the magnetic field, the internal structure of the magnetorheological fluid 62 changes, changing from a liquid state to a semi-solid state with a certain rigidity. As the viscosity of the magnetorheological fluid 62 increases, it will generate pressure on the surroundings, pushing the limiting plate 63 located in the annular groove 61. The dovetail block 64 will slide in the dovetail groove 66 along the set direction. The sliding of the dovetail block 64 drives the arc-shaped positioning piece 65 connected to it to move inward.

After the upper die 11 contacts the aluminum alloy billet placed in the positioning clamping cavity 4, pressure continues to be applied. After the billet is shaped into a specific shape in the extrusion cavity 5, the hydraulic push rod 9 retracts, driving the movable frame 10 and the upper die 11 to move upward and reset. At the same time, the control terminal 3 sends a power-off command to the electromagnet 67, the electromagnet 67 loses its magnetic field, and the magnetorheological fluid 62 returns to a liquid state. At this time, the formed aluminum alloy product can be taken out, completing a complete aluminum alloy extrusion forming operation.
