Detailed Implementation

[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] See appendix Figure 1-8 A powder metallurgical forming mold for a helical gear includes a forming die 1, an upper punch assembly, a lower punch assembly, and a mandrel assembly. A cavity block 1-1 for forming the outer contour structure of the helical gear is nested within the inner cavity of the forming die 1. The upper punch assembly includes an upper punch base 2-1, an upper punch cover 2-2, and an upper punch rotation auxiliary assembly 2-3 connected sequentially from top to bottom, with an upper punch 2-4 disposed within the upper punch rotation auxiliary assembly 2-3. The lower punch assembly includes a lower punch base 3-1, a lower punch cover 3-2, and a lower punch rotation auxiliary assembly 3-3 connected sequentially from bottom to top, with a lower punch 3-4 disposed within the lower punch rotation auxiliary assembly 3-3. The mandrel assembly includes a mandrel base 4-1, a mandrel cover 4-2, and a mandrel assembly 4-3 connected sequentially from bottom to top, with a mandrel 4-4 disposed within the mandrel assembly 4-3. Helical gears are provided on the outer sides of the upper punch 2-4 and the lower punch 3-4.

[0024] See appendix Figure 3 The upward-punching rotary auxiliary assembly 2-3 includes a first assembly upper cover 2-3-1, a first assembly body 2-3-2, and two bearings spaced vertically within the first assembly body 2-3-2. The bottom of the upward punch 2-4 is positioned between the two bearings. A spring-loaded tightening control mechanism is provided on the side of the first assembly body 2-3-2, located between the two bearings. The spring-loaded tightening control mechanism is a ball screw, and a groove 2-3-3 that mates with the ball screw is provided on the side of the first assembly body 2-3-2.

[0025] See appendix Figure 5The lower punch rotation auxiliary assembly 3-3 includes a second assembly lower cover 3-3-1 and a second assembly body 3-3-2. Two bearings are arranged vertically and horizontally within the second assembly body 3-3-2, and the bottom of the lower punch 3-4 is arranged between the two bearings.

[0026] See appendix Figure 7 The mandrel assembly 4-3 includes a third assembly lower cover 4-3-1, a third assembly body 4-3-2, and two bearings arranged vertically and horizontally within the third assembly body 4-3-2. The bottom of the mandrel 4-4 is located between the two bearings.

[0027] To ensure the accuracy of the helical gear after molding, the single-sided gap between the molding die 1, the upper punch assembly, the lower punch assembly and the mandrel assembly is 0.01-0.015mm.

[0028] In practical use, the mold of this utility model is equipped with lifting drive devices for each component as needed. First, the forming die 1 and the lower punch assembly cooperate to form a cavity. Then, powder is filled into the cavity. The upper punch 2-4 descends, and the mandrel 4-4 and lower punch 3-4 rise. With the help of the cavity block 1-1, the upper punch 2-4 and lower punch 3-4 rotate, with the lower punch 3-4 passively rotating along with the forming die 1. The pressing process produces a helical gear blank. After pressing, the lower punch assembly and mandrel assembly descend, and the upper punch assembly rises to remove the formed workpiece, thus completing the demolding process.

[0029] The pressed helical gear blank undergoes sintering, heat treatment, and other processes to meet the design requirements of the helical gear, ultimately forming a helical gear as shown in Figure 8.

[0030] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and not to limit it; although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the specific implementation of this utility model or equivalent substitutions can be made to some technical features without departing from the spirit of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications and substitutions should be covered within the scope of the technical solution claimed by this utility model.
