[0024] 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.

[0025] Please see Figure 1-5 The present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0026] A mold for an automotive body panel with a precision guiding component includes a stabilizing structure 1, to which a mold structure 2 is bolted;

[0027] The mold structure 2 includes a stabilizing plate 21, a support rod 22, an upper mold 23, a fixing block 24, a lower mold 25, and a connector 26. The inner wall of the stabilizing plate 21 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the support rod 22. The bottom of the stabilizing plate 21 is bolted to the top of the upper mold 23. The outer side of the upper mold 23 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the fixing block 24. The bottom of the upper mold 23 is movably connected to the top of the lower mold 25. The outer side of the lower mold 25 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the connector 26. The top of the connector 26 is movably connected to the bottom of the fixing block 24.

[0028] In this embodiment: By setting a stabilizing structure 1 as the installation and control part of the mold structure 2, a stable support is provided for the use of the mold structure 2. When the user needs to produce automotive body panels, the stabilizing structure 1 controls the stabilizing plate 21 to move the upper mold 23 bolted to its bottom towards the lower mold 25 block. When the stabilizing plate 21 moves, the support rod 22 set on its inner wall can guide the movement of the stabilizing plate 21 and reduce the possibility of the stabilizing plate 21 shifting or tilting vertically. When the upper mold 23 and the lower mold 25 are about to close, the fixing blocks 24 fixed on both sides of the upper mold 23 and the plug-in parts 26 fixed on both sides of the lower mold 25 first insert into the inner wall of the fixing blocks 24 to achieve the function of aligning the upper mold 23 and the lower mold 25 when they close.

[0029] Specifically, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the stabilizing structure 1 includes a fixed platform 11, the top of which is bolted to the bottom of the lower mold 25, the inner wall of the fixed platform 11 is inserted into the outer wall of the support rod 22, and the bottom of the connector 26 is movably connected to the top of the fixed platform 11.

[0030] Specifically, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, a support block 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed platform 11, a fixed column 13 is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed platform 11, a stabilizing platform 14 is bolted to the top of the fixed column 13, and the bottom of the stabilizing platform 14 is bolted to the top of the support rod 22.

[0031] Specifically, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, a hydraulic expansion joint 15 is bolted to the top of the stabilizing platform 14, and a connecting block 16 is bolted to the bottom of the hydraulic expansion joint 15. The bottom of the connecting block 16 is bolted to the top of the stabilizing plate 21.

[0032] In this embodiment: by setting the stable structure 1 as the mounting frame for the mold structure 2, the use of the mold structure 2 can be controlled. By setting the fixed platform 11 and the support block 12 fixed at its bottom as the support part of the overall device, and by setting the fixed column 13 fixed at the top of the fixed platform 11, the stable platform 14 can be installed on the top of the fixed platform 11 through the fixed column 13. The hydraulic expansion joint 15 is bolted to the top of the stable platform 14, and the connecting block 16 connected to the bottom of the hydraulic expansion joint 15 is bolted to the stable plate 21, so that the hydraulic expansion joint 15 can control the up and down movement of the stable plate 21 through the connecting block 16.

[0033] Specifically, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, auxiliary components 3 are fixedly connected to both sides of the stabilizing plate 21, and the inner wall of the auxiliary component 3 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the support rod 22.

[0034] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, the bottom of the fixing block 24 is provided with a mating hole 4, and the top of the stabilizing plate 21 is provided with a connecting hole 5, so that the fixing block 24 and the stabilizing plate 21 are connected.

[0035] In this embodiment: the auxiliary parts 3 fixed on both sides of the stabilizing plate 21 are used to increase the sliding area between the stabilizing plate 21 and the support rod 22 when the stabilizing plate 21 slides in conjunction with the support rod 22, thereby increasing the stability of the stabilizing plate 21 to a certain extent. By setting the mating hole 4 in the fixing block 24 and the connecting hole 5 in the stabilizing plate 21, when the upper mold 23 and the lower mold 25 are closed, the plug-in part 26 can be inserted into the inner wall of the fixing block 24 and the inner wall of the stabilizing plate 21.

[0036] Specifically, such as Figure 3 , Figure 5 As shown, a limiting block 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed platform 11, and both the bottom of the limiting block 6 and the bottom of the fixed platform 11 are provided with round holes 7.

[0037] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, a positioning block 8 is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed platform 11. The inner side of the positioning block 8 is inserted into the outer side of the lower mold 25. There are four support rods 22, which are respectively set on the inner wall of the stabilizing plate 21.

[0038] In this embodiment: By setting a limiting block 6 fixed at the bottom of the fixed platform 11, and both the limiting block 6 and the fixed platform 11 have round holes 7, the support rod 22 can pass through the limiting block 6 and the fixed platform 11 in sequence and connect to the bottom of the stable platform 14. The slot of the limiting block 6 is designed to cooperate with the insertion of the support rod 22, so as to prevent the support rod 22 from rotating and loosening. With the limiting block 6 fixed at the top of the fixed platform 11, when the user installs the lower mold 25 on the top of the fixed platform 11, he first inserts the bottom of the lower mold 25 into the inner side of the limiting block 6, and then bolts the lower mold 25 to stabilize it. The limiting block 6 can further increase the stability of the installation of the lower mold 25.

[0039] Working principle: When using automotive body panel molds, the lower mold 25 is first installed on the top of the fixed platform 11, and its position is ensured by the positioning block 8. The slot of the limiting block 6 is matched with the insertion of the support rod 22 to prevent the support rod 22 from rotating accidentally and becoming loose. The fixed column 13 is connected to the stable platform 14, providing an installation base for the hydraulic telescopic device 15. Next, the hydraulic telescopic device 15 controls the up and down movement of the stabilizing plate 21. The bottom of the stabilizing plate 21 is bolted with the upper mold 23. Auxiliary parts 3 are fixedly connected to both sides of the stabilizing plate 21. These auxiliary parts 3 increase the sliding area between the stabilizing plate 21 and the support rod 22, improve the stability of the stabilizing plate 21 when moving up and down, and reduce the possibility of tilting. The support rod 22 passes through the limiting block 6 and the fixed platform 11. The fixed platform 11 is connected to the bottom of the stabilizing platform 14 to maintain the stability of the entire structure. As the hydraulic telescoping device 15 extends, the stabilizing plate 21 drives the upper mold 23 to move downward through the connecting block 16, gradually approaching the lower mold 25. Just before closing, the fixing blocks 24 fixed on both sides of the upper mold 23 and the plug-in parts 26 fixed on both sides of the lower mold 25 interact with each other. Specifically, the plug-in parts 26 will first be inserted into the inner wall of the fixing block 24. Through the mating hole 4 at the bottom of the fixing block 24 and the connecting hole 5 at the top of the stabilizing plate 21, it is ensured that the upper mold 23 and the lower mold 25 can be aligned and achieve precise closure. Once the upper mold 23 and the lower mold 25 are completely closed, the pressure inside the mold will cause the material to be formed, completing the manufacturing process of the automotive body panel.

[0040] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
