[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] Please see Figure 1-6 This utility model provides a technical solution: a molding die for preparing an Archimedes worm gear by powder metallurgy, comprising: a base 1, a lower mold 2 and a pressing device 3 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the top of the base 1, the outer wall of the pressing device 3 being slidably connected to the inner wall of the lower mold 2; the pressing device 3 includes a support frame 31, a support rod 32 symmetrically fixedly connected to the outer wall of the support frame 31, a connecting rod 33 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the support rod 32, a guide plate 34 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting rod 33, a hydraulic cylinder 35 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the top of the support frame 31, a connecting block 36 rotatably connected to the outer wall of the bottom of the hydraulic cylinder 35, a groove 37 is provided on the outer wall of the side of the connecting block 36, a sliding rod 38 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the groove 37, a clamping block 381 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the sliding rod 38, a pressure spring 382 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the clamping block 381, an upper module 39 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the connecting block 36, and clamping grooves 391 are symmetrically provided on the inner wall of the upper module 39.

[0027] The inner wall of the clamping groove 391 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the clamping block 381, and the outer wall of the clamping block 381 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the slide groove 37. The outer wall of the telescopic rod on the hydraulic cylinder 35 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the top of the support frame 31. When the upper module 39 needs to be replaced, press the protrusions above the symmetrically arranged clamping blocks 381 to push the clamping blocks 381 to slide inward along the slide rod 38 and the slide groove 37, so that the clamping blocks 381 and the clamping groove 391 on the upper module 39 slide apart. Then, the upper module 39 slides apart along the outer wall of the connecting block 36. At this time, the pressure spring 382 is also compressed and stored. Then, the upper module 39 that meets the specifications is aligned with the connecting block 36 and slidably inserted. Then, the protrusions on the clamping blocks 381 are released. Through the elastic force released by the pressure spring 382, ​​the clamping blocks 381 slide into the clamping groove 391, and the replacement is completed. The inner wall of the guide plate 34 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the upper module 39, which plays a guiding role.

[0028] The lower module 2 includes a lower module 21. A positioning pin 22 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the top of the lower module 21. A middle template 23 is provided above the lower module 21. A positioning hole 24 is provided on the outer wall of the middle template 23.

[0029] Positioning pins 22 are arranged in a ring around the central point of the lower module 21. The inner wall of the positioning hole 24 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the positioning pin 22. The outer wall of the top of the middle template 23 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the bottom of the guide plate 34, providing a stable foundation for subsequent pressing. The middle template 23 is set below the upper module 39, and the outer wall of the upper module 39 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the middle template 23 and the lower module 21. The upper module 39 slides along the inner wall of the middle template 23 toward the inner wall of the lower module 21, which can press the powder raw material in the lower module 21.

[0030] A hydraulic rod 11 is fixedly connected to the outer wall at the bottom of the base 1, and a template 12 is rotatably connected to the outer wall at the top of the hydraulic rod 11.

[0031] The telescopic rod on the hydraulic rod 11 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the base 1, and the outer wall of the demolding template 12 is slidably connected to the inner walls of the lower module 21 and the middle template 23. When the hydraulic rod 11 is activated, its telescopic rod extends upward, driving the demolding template 12 to move upward. The demolding template 12 can smoothly push the formed Archimedes worm gear out from between the lower module 21 and the middle template 23, thus completing the demolding.

[0032] In use, the evenly mixed powder raw material is placed on the lower module 21 of the lower module 2, and then pressed and shaped by the pressing device 3. Finally, it is demolded by the demolding template 12 on the base 1.

[0033] Before pressing begins, the middle template 23 can be placed according to the different thicknesses to be pressed. The middle template 23 is accurately placed above the lower module 21 through the positioning hole 24 and the positioning pin 22 on the lower module 21, which also provides a stable foundation for subsequent pressing. Then, the evenly mixed powder raw material is placed in the lower module 21 of the lower module 2.

[0034] After the powder is placed, the connecting rod 33 is pushed to rotate along the support rod 32, causing the guide plate 34 to slide above the middle template 23. Then the pressing device 3 starts to work. The support frame 31 is fixed on the base 1, the hydraulic cylinder 35 is activated, and its telescopic rod extends downward, driving the connecting block 36 to move downward. At the same time, it also drives the upper module 39 outside the connecting block 36 to move downward together. As the hydraulic cylinder 35 continues to press down, the upper module 39 contacts the guide plate 34. Guided by the arc surface of the guide plate 34 and the rotational connection between the connecting block 36 and the upper telescopic rod of the hydraulic cylinder 35, the upper module 39 contacts the middle template 23 along the guide plate 34, preventing the stamping position from deviating. Then the upper module 39 slides along the inner wall of the middle template 23 toward the inner wall of the lower module 21, pressing the powder material in the lower module 21 to initially form the shape of an Archimedes worm gear.

[0035] After pressing, the hydraulic rod 11 at the bottom of the base 1 is activated, and its telescopic rod extends upward, driving the demolding template 12 to move upward. Since the outer wall of the demolding template 12 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the lower module 21 and the middle template 23, the demolding template 12 can smoothly push the formed Archimedes worm gear out from between the lower module 21 and the middle template 23, completing the demolding process and making it easy to remove the formed product.

[0036] When it is necessary to replace the upper module 39 to press turbines of different thicknesses, press the protrusions above the symmetrically arranged clamping blocks 381 to push the clamping blocks 381 to slide inward along the slide bar 38 and the slide groove 37, so that the clamping blocks 381 slides apart from the clamping groove 391 on the upper module 39. Then slide the upper module 39 along the outer wall of the connecting block 36 to separate it. At this time, the pressure spring 382 is also compressed and stored. Then, align the upper module 39 that meets the specifications with the connecting block 36 and slide it in. Then release the protrusions on the clamping blocks 381. Through the elastic force released by the pressure spring 382, ​​the clamping blocks 381 slide into the clamping groove 391, and the replacement is completed.
