Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of foaming process technology, specifically to a foaming mold with a quick positioning snap-fit ​​structure. Background Technology

[0002] Foaming is a manufacturing process primarily used to produce lightweight, porous materials. These materials typically possess excellent thermal and sound insulation properties and have low density, making them widely used in packaging, construction, automotive interiors, footwear, furniture, and other fields. The core of the foaming process lies in creating numerous tiny air bubbles or pores within the material, thereby altering its physical properties.

[0003] In certain applications, foamed products require the integration of mechanical connectors such as snap-fits for assembly with other components. When molding these products using foam molds, not only is precise positioning of the snap-fits on the molded workpiece essential, but special care must also be taken to prevent the snap-fit ​​areas from being filled with foam material. If the snap-fit ​​areas are occupied by foam material, it will affect the snap-fit's function, preventing it from fulfilling its crucial role as a connector, thereby impacting the quality and reliability of the final product.

[0004] like Figure 1 To address the aforementioned issues, existing technology involves creating a square groove 1 within the product cavity of the foaming mold that matches the snap-fit ​​part of the snap-fit ​​2. The snap-fit ​​part of the snap-fit ​​2 inserts into the square groove 1, achieving accurate positioning within the product cavity. Furthermore, this method effectively prevents foaming material from entering the snap-fit ​​area, ensuring the snap-fit ​​2's function remains unaffected. However, this method suffers from significant efficiency problems: due to the shape of the square groove 1, the snap-fit ​​part must be precisely aligned with the inner wall of the groove for correct insertion. Any slight deviation can lead to insertion failure or inaccurate positioning. To ensure the snap-fit ​​2 can be smoothly inserted into the square groove 1, operators need to spend additional time and effort adjusting the position of the snap-fit ​​part to meet strict alignment requirements. These factors collectively result in low efficiency throughout the production process, increased labor costs, and reduced overall production line output. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a foaming mold with a quick positioning buckle structure, in view of the current situation of the prior art.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: A foaming mold with a quick-positioning buckle structure is proposed, wherein the buckle has a first insertion surface and a second insertion surface arranged opposite to each other, and the foaming mold includes:

[0007] Fixed mold assembly;

[0008] The moving mold assembly moves against the fixed mold assembly and together forms the product cavity;

[0009] A positioning element is disposed on the inner wall of the product cavity, and the positioning element is for the buckle to be inserted into; wherein, the positioning element can abut against both the first insertion surface and the second insertion surface when the buckle is inserted, so as to provide positioning for the buckle while preventing the foaming material from entering between the first insertion surface and the second insertion surface.

[0010] In the aforementioned foaming mold with a quick-positioning buckle structure, the positioning member has an insertion part, and the buckle is inserted into the insertion part.

[0011] In the above-mentioned foaming mold with a quick-positioning buckle structure, the insertion part has a positioning protrusion and positioning grooves located on both sides of the positioning protrusion. The positioning protrusion can be pressed against the first insertion surface and the second insertion surface by the buckle being inserted into the positioning member. The positioning grooves on both sides of the positioning protrusion are respectively pressed against the first insertion surface and the second insertion surface.

[0012] In the aforementioned foaming mold with a quick-positioning snap-fit ​​structure, the positioning element is integrally formed with the inner wall of the product cavity.

[0013] In the aforementioned foaming mold with a quick-positioning snap-fit ​​structure, the positioning element is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the product cavity.

[0014] In the aforementioned foaming mold with a quick-positioning snap-fit ​​structure, the positioning member has a connecting part, and the positioning member is threadedly connected to the product cavity through the connecting part.

[0015] In the aforementioned foaming mold with a quick-positioning snap-fit ​​structure, the connecting part is a through hole, one end of which passes through the through hole and is threaded onto the inner wall of the product cavity.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0020] (1) By setting a positioning element in the product cavity, the positioning element is used for buckle insertion. It is used to provide positioning for the buckle while blocking the foaming material from entering between the first insertion surface and the second insertion surface. During the buckle insertion process, the operator only needs to ensure that the positioning element is properly abutted against the first insertion surface and the second insertion surface. There is no need to precisely adjust the angle and position of the buckle as in the traditional method, which greatly reduces the difficulty of the work, thereby reducing labor costs and improving the overall output of the production line.

[0021] (2) By providing an anti-slip structure on the positioning member, which is located on the inner surface of the plug, the friction between the buckle and the positioning member is increased, ensuring that the buckle will not slide or loosen during operation.

[0022] (3) A sealing ring is provided on the outer surface of the positioning element to further prevent foam material from seeping into the first and second insertion surfaces of the buckle. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0029] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention, which are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0030] like Figures 2 to 5As shown, this utility model discloses a foaming mold with a quick-positioning buckle 2 structure. The buckle 2 has a first insertion surface 3 and a second insertion surface 4 arranged opposite to each other. The foaming mold includes: a fixed mold assembly; a moving mold assembly, which moves against the fixed mold assembly and together forms a product cavity; and a positioning member 6, which is disposed on the inner wall 5 of the product cavity. The positioning member 6 is for the buckle 2 to be inserted into. The positioning member 6 can be pressed against both the first insertion surface 3 and the second insertion surface 4 when the buckle 2 is inserted, which is used to provide positioning for the buckle 2 while blocking the foaming material from entering between the first insertion surface 3 and the second insertion surface 4.

[0031] During operation, before the fixed mold assembly and the moving mold assembly close, the operator inserts the buckle 2 into the positioning part 6 to ensure that the buckle 2 maintains the correct position during the mold closing process. During the buckle 2 insertion process, the operator only needs to ensure that the positioning part 6 is correctly abutted against the first insertion surface 3 and the second insertion surface 4. The operator does not need to precisely adjust the angle and position of the buckle 2 as in the traditional method, which greatly simplifies the operation process. After the buckle 2 is successfully inserted, the fixed mold assembly and the moving mold assembly close together to form the product cavity. The positioning part 6 not only provides precise positioning for the buckle 2, but also effectively prevents the foaming material from entering between the first insertion surface 3 and the second insertion surface 4, ensuring the normal functioning of the buckle 2. This working method does not require the operator to spend extra time and effort to adjust the position of the buckle 2, which greatly reduces the difficulty of the work, thereby reducing labor costs and improving the overall output of the production line.

[0032] Specifically, the positioning member 6 has an insertion part 7, and the buckle 2 is inserted into the insertion part 7. The internal contour of the insertion part 7 is designed to match the shape of the buckle 2 to ensure that the buckle 2 can be inserted accurately and maintain a stable position after insertion.

[0033] Specifically, the insertion part 7 has a positioning protrusion 8 located in the center and positioning grooves 9 on both sides thereon. The design of the positioning protrusion 8 matches the first insertion surface 3 and the second insertion surface 4 of the buckle 2, ensuring that after the buckle 2 is fully inserted, the positioning protrusion 8 can fit tightly against and abut against the first insertion surface 3 and the second insertion surface 4, providing precise lateral positioning and preventing the buckle 2 from shifting within the product cavity. In addition, the positioning protrusion 8 effectively blocks the path of the foam material into the space between the first insertion surface 3 and the second insertion surface 4, ensuring the quality of the molded product. The positioning grooves 9 extend longitudinally along the insertion part 7, and their width... The depth is carefully designed to fit the specific dimensions of the buckle 2. When the buckle 2 is correctly inserted, the edge of the positioning groove 9 will make close contact with the first insertion surface 3 and the second insertion surface 4 of the buckle 2, which increases the stability and reliability after assembly. The positioning groove 9 not only plays a guiding role, helping the buckle 2 to accurately enter the predetermined position, but also ensures that the buckle 2 will not easily fall out through the friction with the surface of the buckle 2. The positioning protrusion 8 of the insertion part 7 and the positioning grooves 9 on both sides not only provide precise positioning and stable fixation for the buckle 2, but also effectively prevent the leakage of foam material, improving the quality of the product and the reliability of production.

[0034] The positioning component 6 and the inner wall 5 of the product cavity are integrally molded. The positioning component 6 and the inner wall 5 of the product cavity are processed in the same process to form a seamless integral structure. This not only simplifies the production process and reduces production costs, but also improves the level of quality control and reduces potential human errors in the assembly process. The integral molding design provides higher mechanical strength and impact resistance, eliminates the weak links commonly found in traditional splicing methods, and enables the positioning component 6 to remain stable in the high-pressure foaming environment, making it less prone to damage or deformation. Since there are no additional seams or connection points, the integrally molded positioning component 6 can effectively prevent foam material from seeping into unnecessary areas, thereby ensuring the appearance quality and internal structural integrity of the molded product.

[0035] The positioning component 6 is fixed to the inner wall 5 of the product cavity via a threaded connection. The threaded connection design allows for quick replacement of positioning components 6 of different specifications according to actual production needs, in order to meet the requirements of different buckle 2 sizes. This flexibility enables the mold to better adapt to changing production tasks without the need to frequently replace the entire mold, thereby reducing production costs and improving production line efficiency. In addition, when the positioning component 6 is worn or has other problems, the damaged part can be directly replaced by loosening the threaded connection between the positioning component 6 and the inner wall 5 of the product cavity, without having to replace the entire mold, which significantly reduces maintenance costs and downtime.

[0036] Specifically, the positioning component 6 is equipped with a specially designed connecting part 10, which can precisely match the product cavity, ensuring a tight fit between the positioning component 6 and the product cavity, and maintaining stability even in a high-pressure foaming environment.

[0037] To ensure the durability and reliability of the threaded connection, the positioning element 6 and the bolts are made of high-strength, corrosion-resistant materials, such as stainless steel or specially treated alloys, to adapt to different working environments and extend service life.

[0038] In addition, the positioning element 6 also includes an anti-slip structure located on the inner surface of the insertion portion 7 to increase the friction between the buckle 2 and the positioning element 6, ensuring that the buckle 2 will not slip or loosen during operation. The outer surface of the positioning element 6 is provided with a sealing ring to further prevent foam material from seeping between the first and second insertion surfaces of the buckle, ensuring the high quality of the molded product.

[0039] Furthermore, the connecting part 10 is a through hole through which one end of the bolt passes. It is then fixed to the threaded hole on the inner wall 5 of the product cavity by a threaded connection. The diameter of the through hole is precisely calculated to ensure that the bolt can be smoothly inserted without affecting the overall stability due to excessive gaps. The inner wall 5 of the product cavity is provided with corresponding threaded holes. The external thread of the bolt is tightly matched with these threaded holes to ensure that the bolt can be firmly screwed in and provide sufficient clamping force, so that the positioning part 6 is tightly connected to the product cavity. In order to ensure the durability and reliability of the threaded connection, the positioning part 6 and the bolt are made of high-strength, corrosion-resistant materials, such as stainless steel or specially treated alloys, to adapt to different working environments and extend service life.
