Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sunshade processing technology, and in particular to a sunshade processing tooling. Background Technology
[0002] A car sun visor is a panel installed above the driver to prevent glare from the sun. It can be flipped down when in use and flipped up when not in use. Car sun visors can be divided into three types according to their position: front windshield, side windshield, and rear windshield. As an important functional component, the sun visor must not only meet the basic requirement of blocking sunlight, but also meet high standards in terms of appearance, quality, and production efficiency. Therefore, a tooling for processing sun visors is needed.
[0003] In existing automotive sun visor manufacturing processes, a combination of decentralized equipment and manual operation is often relied upon. Taking the injection molding process as an example, raw material is typically injected into a fixed location within the injection tank, and then its own fluidity allows it to gradually spread throughout the tank. This injection method has two drawbacks: firstly, because the raw material is injected from only one point, the time it takes for it to flow to various locations is long, reducing injection molding efficiency; secondly, in cases of unstable raw material supply, some areas within the injection tank may be underfilled, leading to defects such as localized depressions, ultimately resulting in decreased product quality and reduced injection molding efficiency.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a tooling for processing sunshades to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0024] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0025] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 4 A tooling for processing sunshades, comprising:
[0026] The processing box 1 has an injection groove 101 on its upper surface. A support 2 is installed on the processing box 1. An injection box 3 for storing injection molding raw materials is installed on the support 2. An injection tube 4 is connected to the injection box 3.
[0027] The moving mechanism 6 is disposed within the bracket 2. The moving mechanism 6 includes an annular plate 601 and several connecting plates 603. The annular plate 601 is connected to the bracket 2 through the several connecting plates 603.
[0028] Cooling mechanism 9, which is located inside processing box 1, is used to cool the sunshade after injection molding.
[0029] It should be noted that the injection molding box 3 is equipped with a control button, which is electrically connected to the control panel 5. The control panel 5 controls the feeding speed and amount of the injection molding raw material to ensure that the raw material is injected into the injection molding tank 101 evenly and accurately, thereby improving the quality of the injection molded product.
[0030] refer to Figure 1 As shown, the front of the processing box 1 is provided with a door for easy inspection and maintenance of the parts inside the processing box 1, and the support 2 is provided with a control panel 5.
[0031] It should be noted that the motor 606, electric push rod 7, water pump in the water tank, and chiller 904 are all electrically connected to the control panel 5 to achieve automation.
[0032] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, the moving mechanism 6 also includes an annular tooth 602 disposed on the inner wall of the annular plate 601. An annular T-shaped groove 6011 is provided on the upper surface of the annular plate 601. A T-shaped block 604 is provided in the T-shaped groove 6011. A connecting block 605 is connected to the upper surface of the T-shaped block 604. A motor 606 is installed on the connecting block 605. A gear 607 is connected to the output shaft of the motor 606. The gear 607 meshes with the annular tooth 602. A through groove is provided on the gear 607. The through groove is located on one side of the central shaft of the gear 607. A bearing 608 is installed in the through groove. The injection tube 4 extends to the bottom of the bracket 2 through the bearing 608.
[0033] In practice, the motor 606 is started to drive the gear 607 to rotate. Since the gear 607 meshes with the ring gear 602, the T-shaped block 604 moves smoothly along the annular T-groove 6011. Since the trajectory of the annular T-groove 6011 is the same as the trajectory of the injection tank 101, the injection tube 4 can be accurately positioned above the injection tank 101 under the drive of the moving mechanism 6, thereby ensuring that the raw material is injected into the injection tank 101 evenly and accurately, and shaping the prototype of the sunshade frame.
[0034] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, the processing box 1 has a cooling tank 102 and an installation slot 103 inside. The cooling tank 102 is located outside the injection molding tank 101, the installation slot 103 is located below the injection molding tank 101, and the cooling mechanism 9 is located inside the installation slot 103.
[0035] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the cooling mechanism 9 includes a first water tank 901 for storing circulating water and a second water tank 902 for storing cooling water. A chiller 904 is provided on one side of the first water tank 901. Both sides of the chiller 904 are connected to the first water tank 901 and the second water tank 902 respectively through connecting pipes 905. Water pipes 903 are connected to both the first water tank 901 and the second water tank 902. One end of each water pipe 903 extends into the cooling tank 102. A water pump is provided in both the first water tank 901 and the second water tank 902.
[0036] In practice, after injection molding is completed, the cooling mechanism 9 is activated. The chiller 904 operates, cooling the circulating water in the first water tank 901 and then transferring it to the second water tank 902. Specifically, the water pump in the first water tank 901 draws warm water from the cooling tank 102 into the first water tank 901. The water is then pumped into the chiller 904 via the connecting pipe 905. The chiller 904 cools the water and then transfers the cooled water to the second water tank 902. The cooled water in the second water tank 902 is then pumped into the cooling tank 102 via the water pipe 903. The cooling tank 102 surrounds the injection molding tank 101, effectively removing heat from the sun visor frame after injection molding. Simultaneously, the electric push rod 7 in the mounting slot 103 is in its initial state, with its upper end of the push rod 8 flush with the bottom wall of the injection molding tank 101, not affecting the cooling process. This ensures rapid and uniform cooling and shaping of the sun visor frame, effectively preventing deformation.
[0037] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, an electric push rod 7 is also installed in the mounting slot 103. The output end of the electric push rod 7 is connected to a push rod 8. When the electric push rod 7 is in the initial state, the upper end of the push rod 8 is flush with the bottom wall of the injection molding tank 101.
[0038] It should be noted that after cooling is complete, the electric push rod 7 is activated, and the push rod 8 pushes upward to eject the formed sunshade frame out of the injection molding groove 101, making it convenient for operators to remove the finished product. In daily production, if the equipment malfunctions, the cabinet door provides a convenient maintenance passage, allowing operators to quickly troubleshoot problems, repair the equipment, and ensure production continuity.
[0039] The working principle of the sunshade processing fixture provided by this utility model is as follows:
[0040] First, before processing, the injection molding raw material is stored in the injection molding box 3. The operator sets the injection molding parameters through the control panel 5 and starts the processing flow. At this time, the raw material in the injection molding box 3 flows to the injection molding tank 101 through the injection molding tube 4 under the action of gravity or pumping. Then, the motor 606 is started to drive the gear 607 to rotate, so that the T-shaped block 604 moves smoothly along the annular T-groove 6011. At this time, the injection molding tube 4 moves along the trajectory of the injection molding tank 101 under the drive of the gear 607, so that the raw material is injected evenly and accurately into the injection molding tank 101, shaping the prototype of the sunshade frame.
[0041] After injection molding is completed, the chiller 904 is activated, and the second water tank 902 pumps cooling water into the cooling tank 102 through the water pipe 903 to remove the heat from the sun visor frame after injection molding. The cooling water becomes warm water, and at this time, the water pump in the first water tank 901 draws the warm water in the cooling tank 102 into the first water tank 901. The water in the first water tank 901 is then pumped into the chiller 904 through the connecting pipe 905. The chiller 904 cools the water and then delivers the cooled water to the second water tank 902. This cycle is repeated to quickly cool the injection-molded product. After cooling is complete, the electric push rod 7 is activated, and the push rod 8 pushes up to eject the molded sun visor frame out of the injection tank 101, making it easy for personnel to remove the finished product.

Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the content of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
