Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of mold steel technology, and specifically relates to a mold steel deformation monitoring device. Background Technology
[0002] Deformation of mold steel is mainly caused by heat treatment stress, machining residual stress, material anisotropy, and service thermal load, manifesting as warping, shrinkage, and twisting, leading to decreased precision, shortened lifespan, and increased costs. Control requires multi-dimensional collaboration: optimizing quenching processes (such as staged cooling) to reduce thermal stress; improving structural design (symmetry, pre-deformation compensation) to alleviate stress concentration; applying vibration failure and high-speed milling processes to reduce machining deformation; and combining intelligent monitoring (such as laser scanning) with adaptive compensation to achieve closed-loop control. Industry trends focus on the development of low-deformation materials (such as powder steel), digital twin prediction, and composite strengthening technologies, driving molds towards higher precision and longer lifespan, ultimately achieving micron-level deformation control.
[0003] In the deformation monitoring of mold steel, existing technologies have several significant shortcomings. First, current clamping devices struggle to stably hold mold steel, failing to effectively adapt to different sizes and shapes. This leads to loosening or displacement during movement, affecting monitoring accuracy. Second, existing technologies also have issues when transporting mold steel into the temperature-controlled protective shell. The lack of effective three-dimensional motion path planning makes precise positioning and transport difficult, causing positional deviations or collisions when the mold steel enters the protective shell. This not only increases the need for manual intervention but may also damage the mold steel, affecting the reliability of monitoring results. Furthermore, the temperature-controlled protective shells in existing technologies have insufficient sealing performance, failing to effectively maintain internal temperature stability, leading to heat loss and affecting the accuracy of deformation monitoring data. Additionally, due to the poor sealing of the protective shell, external environmental factors can easily interfere with the monitoring process, further reducing the reliability of the results. These problems make it difficult for existing technologies to meet the high precision and efficiency requirements of actual production in mold steel deformation monitoring, necessitating further improvement and optimization.

[0032] Specifically, one end of the bidirectional lead screw 11 is threaded to the inner wall of the clamping claw 12, the angle motor 9 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the lifting platform 5, the lifting cylinder 7 is fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the inner wall of the work box 1, and the output end of the lifting cylinder 7 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the lifting platform 5.

[0036] Specifically, the outer wall of the work box 1 is hinged with a cabinet door 101, and the inner wall of the work box 1 is embedded with a conveyor belt 102.
[0037] In a specific embodiment of this utility model, a conveyor belt 102 is embedded in the inner wall of the work box 1, which can ensure the stable transportation of mold steel.
[0038] Specifically, the inner wall of the protective shell 3 is embedded with an insulation layer 301, and the insulation layer 301 is matched with the rotating plate 6.
[0039] In a specific embodiment of this utility model, the insulation layer 301 and the rotating plate 6 are matched to prevent heat loss.
[0040] Working principle:
[0041] The mold steel is conveyed to the predetermined picking position via the conveyor belt 102 embedded in the inner wall of the work box 1, ensuring a continuous and stable supply of workpieces. The clamping motor 10 drives the bidirectional lead screw 11 to rotate, causing the two clamping jaws 12 to move synchronously inward or outward along the constraint slide rail 8, adaptively adjusting the clamping distance to precisely match the size of the mold steel. The clamping jaws 12 close, firmly clamping the mold steel to prevent the workpiece from sliding or shifting. The output end of the traction cylinder 13 retracts, causing the constraint slide rail 8 and clamping jaws 12 to retract to the surface of the rotating plate 6, ensuring that the mold steel is removed from the conveyor belt 102 and initially positioned. The lifting cylinder 7 drives the lifting platform 5 to rise or fall vertically along the slide groove of the limit frame 4, adjusting the height of the mold steel, avoiding obstacles and entering the docking path of the protective shell 3. The angle motor 9 starts, driving the rotating plate 6 to rotate horizontally around the central axis of the lifting platform 5, transferring the mold steel to directly below the protective shell 3. The angle motor 9 has a built-in braking function to ensure that the rotating plate 6 stands upright after reaching the target angle. The rotating plate 6 is locked to prevent inertial deviation. The heat insulation layer 301 of the protective shell 3 is matched and docked to form a sealed heating cavity, which isolates the external environment from interference. The heating wire embedded in the protective shell 3 is activated. Through the heat insulation effect of the heat insulation layer 301, the mold steel is uniformly heated at the set temperature to simulate the actual working conditions. During the heating process, the heat insulation layer 301 continuously reduces heat loss to ensure the temperature inside the cavity is stable, providing a reliable thermal environment for deformation monitoring. External sensors (such as laser displacement sensors, strain gauges, etc.) collect deformation data of the mold steel in the heating state in real time through the observation window of the working box 1 or the built-in probe. After the monitoring is completed, the angle motor 9 drives the rotating plate 6 to rotate in the opposite direction, the lifting cylinder 7 controls the lifting platform 5 to descend to the initial height, the clamping motor 10 drives the bidirectional lead screw 11 to reverse, the clamping claw 12 releases the mold steel, and the traction cylinder 13 pushes out the constraint slide rail 8 to put the workpiece back on the conveyor belt 102 or remove it from the working box 1.
