AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies cannot effectively eliminate internal stress during the injection molding process, which makes the middle frame prone to bending and warping deformation after injection molding.
When designing the frame blank, a recessed frame mounting groove is formed between the annular frame and the middle plate, and multiple stress relief notches are set on the scrap blank, including the first stress relief notch, the second stress relief notch and the third stress relief notch, to reduce the influence of internal stress and balance the injection pressure.
By using a stress-relief notch design, the accumulation of internal stress in the middle frame during injection molding is reduced, thereby improving the structural strength and injection sealing of the middle frame and preventing injection deformation.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0026] Example 1, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 It is a kind of middle frame injection-molded deformation prevention schematic diagram provided by the utility model. The middle frame injection-molded deformation prevention includes: middle frame blank 10, injection structure 20 set on middle frame blank 10 and waste material blank 30 set on the middle frame blank 10, it is conceived that, the middle frame injection-molded deformation prevention also includes functional components and specific structure, for example, electrical connection component, the slot hole of partial installation is set, etc., it is all the technology known to those skilled in the art, so here is not detailed description one by one.
[0027] The external contour of middle frame blank 10 is the finished product size after CNC, specifically including annular frame 11 in rectangular shape, and the circumferential edge of annular frame 11 is divided into long side and short side according to length. The middle part of middle frame mounting groove 13 is provided with recessed middle frame mounting groove 13, and the shape of middle frame mounting groove 13 is close to rectangular slot, which is convenient for injection structure 20 and component installation. The bottom of middle frame mounting groove 13 is middle plate 12 set in the middle part of annular frame 11, and middle plate 12 is internal bearing surface, which can realize electrical connection of positive and negative plate surfaces after slot hole is set on middle plate 12. Because the thickness of middle plate 12 is relatively thin, step 14 is arranged on the circumferential edge of annular frame 11 close to middle plate 12, and in the embodiment, step 14 is mainly arranged in the long side direction of annular frame 11. The connection strength of middle plate 12 is increased by step 14, and the connection level of middle plate 12 is improved.
[0028] In the embodiment, the injection molding structure 20 is injected into the middle frame blank 10 through an injection molding die, and the injection molding structure 20 mainly affects the stress change in the middle frame mounting groove 13. Specifically, the injection molding structure 20 includes a first injection molding part 21 arranged in the circumferential inner wall of the middle frame mounting groove 13, and a second injection molding part 22 arranged at the circumferential edge of the middle plate 12 close to the annular frame 11. The first injection molding part 21 and the second injection molding part 22 are integrally and synchronously injection molded. The width of the second injection molding part 22 arranged on the middle plate 12 is greater than the width of the step 14, so as to increase the contact area between the injection molding structure 20 and the middle frame blank 10, balance the stress of the injection molding structure 20, and reliably ensure the injection molding embedding property. It is conceivable that the injection molding pressure, the die pressure, and the shrinkage force of the injection molding plastic generate the internal stress in the middle frame blank 10.
[0029] It is conceivable that the cutting material reserves a waste material blank 30 outside the middle frame blank 10. The waste material blank 30 is an integral structure with the middle frame blank 10. The waste material blank 30 is arranged along the circumferential edge of the annular frame 11 and protrudes horizontally from the circumferential edge of the annular frame 11, that is, the thickness of the waste material blank 30 is consistent with the thickness of the outermost end of the middle frame blank 10. The waste material blank 30 is cut off after the injection molding is completed. The structure of the waste material blank 30 is increased to increase the external size of the middle frame blank 10, facilitate the connection with the injection molding die to ensure the injection molding sealing property in the middle frame mounting groove 13, and avoid the dirt and scratch problems of the outer surface of the middle frame blank 10.
[0030] In the embodiment, first stress relief notches 31 are arranged in the short side direction of the waste material blank 30. The structural strength of the waste material blank 30 in the short side direction is weakened through the first stress relief notches 31, and the internal stress of the injection molding structure 20 at the short side position of the middle frame blank 10 is reduced. Optimally, the length of the first stress relief notches 31 is greater than half of the length of the short side of the waste material blank 30, so as to reduce the internal stress aggregation of the middle frame blank 10 at the short side position. The depth of the first stress relief notches 31 is equal to the depth of the middle frame mounting groove 13, and the width of the first stress relief notches 31 is less than the width of the waste material blank 30. The corresponding thickness of the waste material blank 30 is reserved to replace the through notches, avoid the internal stress aggregation at the short side corner of the middle frame blank 10, and make the cutting tool more stable and reliable when the waste material blank 30 is cut off.
[0031] At least one edge along the long side of the waste blank 30 is provided with a second stress-relieving notch 32 that is recessed inward and approaches the corner of the waste blank 30. The second stress-relieving notch 32 is used to eliminate or balance the internal stress at the four corners of the middle frame blank 10. In this embodiment, when the widths of the two sides along the long side of the annular frame 11 are inconsistent, there is one second stress-relieving notch 32, which is located on the side of the waste blank 30 with a relatively smaller width. It is conceivable that the middle frame blank 10 with a narrower edge width is more susceptible to internal stress, and the position of the second stress-relieving notch 32 makes it easier to adjust the internal stress balance.
[0032] In other embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 When the width of both sides of the long side of the ring frame 11 is the same, there are two second stress relief notches 32 and they are set on one side of the long side of the waste blank 30. The two second stress relief notches 32 are set at opposite corners of the waste blank 30. The two diagonally designed second stress relief notches 32 can be adjusted in size and position during the design stage according to the internal stress difference of each corner.
[0033] It should be noted that during the preliminary design, a middle frame blank 10 without internal stress notches can be pre-made. After injection molding, the internal stress distribution of the middle frame blank 10 after injection molding can be obtained, and the number and design position of the second stress relief notches 32 can be accurately designed.
[0034] In this embodiment, the waste blank 30 is also provided with a third stress relief notch 33 that connects the middle frame mounting groove 13 and the second stress relief notch 32. The third stress relief notch 33 can serve as an injection overflow port, which can greatly alleviate the injection pressure and mold pressure caused by injection molding.
[0035] The depth of the third stress-relieving notch 33 is less than the depth of the second stress-relieving notch 32, ensuring the sealing of the middle frame mounting groove 13 and not affecting the stress-relieving effect of the second stress-relieving notch 32.
[0036] The length of the third stress relief notch 33 is less than the length of the second stress relief notch 32, so as to prevent the overflowing injection fluid from pressurizing the second stress relief notch 32 during the injection process.
[0037] Example 2: This utility model also provides an electronic device having a mid-frame as described above that prevents injection molding deformation. Except for the mid-frame that prevents injection molding deformation, all other components are existing technology or commercially available parts.
[0038] The specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative examples illustrating the spirit of this utility model. Those skilled in the art to which this utility model pertains may make various modifications or additions to the described specific embodiments or use similar methods to substitute them, without departing from the spirit of this utility model or exceeding the scope defined by the appended claims.
