[0027] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0028] Example 1

[0029] Please see Figures 1-6This utility model is a processing tool for die-cast parts of photovoltaic module junction boxes. It includes a tool housing 1, a forming groove 2 is formed at the top of the tool housing 1, and a placement groove 3 is formed at the bottom of the tool housing 1. A material ejector assembly is provided inside the placement groove 3. The material ejector assembly includes a nitrogen box 4 fixedly connected to the bottom of the placement groove 3, an air pump 5 connected to one side of the nitrogen box 4, a booster 7 connected to the top of the air pump 5, and an air outlet hose 6 connected to the booster 7. An electric push rod 8 is fixedly connected to the top of the nitrogen box 4. The top of the electric push rod 8 extends into the forming groove 2 and is fixedly connected to a material ejector plate 9. An air outlet cylinder 10 is sleeved on the top of the surface of the electric push rod 8. An air outlet 11 is connected to the surface of the air outlet cylinder 10. The other end of the air outlet hose 6 is connected to the air outlet cylinder 10. The material ejector assembly is used to quickly eject the die-cast parts after forming.

[0030] A buffer assembly is provided at each of the four corners of the top of the fixture housing 1. The buffer assembly includes a buffer box 12 installed at the top inside the fixture housing 1 and a buffer cylinder 13 fixedly connected inside the buffer box 12. The buffer assembly is used to buffer the impact force during pressing.

[0031] Further details: The molding groove 2 is designed to process photovoltaic module junction boxes, facilitating die casting with the pressure application mechanism. The nitrogen box 4 is used to store nitrogen for use with the air pump 5. The booster 7 is used to increase the pressure during gas supply. The electric push rod 8 and the top plate 9 are designed to easily lift the molded part for demolding. Multiple air outlets 11 are arranged in a circumferential array to ensure uniformity of air output.

[0032] Example 2

[0033] Please see Figures 1-6Based on Embodiment 1, the buffer assembly further includes a rubber column 14 fixedly connected to the bottom of the buffer cylinder 13. Horizontal plates 15 are fixedly connected to the top and bottom of the inner wall of the buffer box 12. A vertical plate 16 is slidably connected between the two sets of horizontal plates 15. A spring 17 is fixedly connected to one side of the vertical plate 16, and the other end of the spring 17 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the buffer box 12. A circular protrusion 18 is fixedly connected to the other side of the vertical plate 16. The free end of the circular protrusion 18 extends into the interior of the buffer cylinder 13. During the pressing process, the stamping component generates an impact force. The guide rod (existing technology) in the stamping component, when inserted into the buffer cylinder 13, will squeeze the circular protrusion 18, causing the circular protrusion 18 to move into the interior of the buffer box 12 and impacting the interior of the buffer box 12. The spring 17 is compressed, and the rubber column 14 is also compressed while it is moving downward. The combination of spring 17 and rubber column 14 is used to buffer the stamping parts in the prior art, so as to protect the processing tool. A fixed rod is fixedly connected to one side of the booster 7, and the other end of the fixed rod is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the placement channel 3. An air inlet pipe is connected to one side of the nitrogen box 4 for injecting nitrogen. A fixed pad is fixedly connected to the bottom of the air pump 5, and the bottom of the fixed pad is fixedly connected to the bottom of the placement channel 3. A movable cavity is opened at the top of the placement channel 3. The diameter of the movable cavity is larger than the diameter of the air outlet 10 for vertical movement of the air outlet 10. Mounting blocks are fixedly connected to the bottom of both sides of the tool housing 1. Mounting holes are opened inside the mounting blocks.

[0034] Further details: The rubber column 14 is made of nitrile rubber, which provides better cushioning for the stamping parts. The vertical plate 16 is slidably connected between the two horizontal plates 15 to ensure the horizontal movement of the circular protrusion 18, so as to compress the spring 17. The fixed rod improves the stability of the booster 7 during use. The fixed pad supports and fixes the air pump 5. The movable cavity ensures that the air outlet 10 can move vertically. The mounting block and mounting hole facilitate the installation of the processing fixture.

[0035] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: During the demolding process of die-cast parts, the middle is usually lifted first, followed by the two sides. This existing demolding method can easily cause wrinkles or bending around the die-cast parts. In this utility model, when the molded photovoltaic module junction box die-cast part needs to be removed, the electric push rod 8 is activated. The electric push rod 8 extends and moves the top plate 9, which lifts the molded part for demolding. During the process of the electric push rod 8 lifting the top plate 9, the air pump 5 is turned on. The air pump 5 discharges nitrogen from the nitrogen box 4 through the outlet hose 6 into the outlet cylinder 10, and then discharges it through the outlet 11 connected to the surface of the outlet cylinder 10. The discharged high-pressure gas blows up the edges of the molded part, thus solving the problem of easy bending and deformation of the edges. Furthermore, the combination of electric and pneumatic methods can greatly improve the yield rate and reduce the failure rate of electric components. For example, if only the electric push rod is used for ejection, the electric push rod is prone to damage due to long-term high-load operation. Combining pneumatics can distribute the load, resulting in higher stability and ensuring better performance.

[0036] The foregoing description only illustrates certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
