Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of injection mold mechanism design technology, and in particular to a device for controlling the opening and closing sequence of a mold. Background Technology
[0002] In existing technology, traditional external mechanical opening and closing devices for injection molds are mainly used to control the separation sequence of the female mold platen, male mold platen, and stripper plate during mold opening, ensuring smooth mold opening and demolding. However, these mechanical opening and closing devices cannot precisely control the closing sequence of the female mold platen, male mold platen, and stripper plate during mold closing. This can cause the female mold platen, male mold platen, and stripper plate to fail to close in the expected order during mold closing, leading to misalignment or damage of internal mold parts, shortening the mold's lifespan, and the stripper plate failing to accurately reset during mold closing, affecting the accuracy of the next injection. Manual intervention or adjustment of the mold closing sequence is required during mold closing, increasing production time and costs. To control the order of mold closing, additional mechanisms are usually needed. Two sets of mechanisms not only occupy mold space but also complicate the mold structure and make operation cumbersome.

[0004] To achieve the aforementioned objectives, the technical solution provided by this utility model is as follows:
[0005] An external mold opening and closing sequence control device includes a housing fixed to a female mold plate. The housing has a first moving groove and a second moving groove. The opening of the first moving groove is located at the left end of the housing, and the opening of the second moving groove is located at the right end of the housing. A partition plate is provided between the first and second moving grooves. The first moving groove is a blind hole. A spring block is provided at the bottom of the first moving groove. An elastic element is provided on the right side of the spring block, and the right side of the elastic element is fixed to the housing. The spring block and a male mold pull rod fixedly connected to a female mold plate can slide within the first moving groove. A stripper plate pull rod connected to a female mold stripper plate can slide within the second moving groove. A first through hole is provided on the left side of the partition plate, and a second through hole is provided on the right side of the partition plate. A first limiting block is slidably disposed within the first through hole, and a second limiting block is slidably disposed within the second through hole. Both are elastic.

When the top of the first limiting block extends into the first limiting groove, it can restrict the movement of the male mold pull rod. When the top of the second limiting block extends into the second limiting groove, it can restrict the movement of the male mold pull rod. When the bottom of the second limiting block abuts against the left end of the stripper plate pull rod, it can restrict the movement of the stripper plate pull rod. When the male mold pull rod slides in the first moving groove, it can make the bottom of the first limiting block protrude out of the lower surface of the partition plate. When the spring block slides in the first moving groove, it can make the bottom of the second limiting block protrude out of the lower surface of the partition plate. When the stripper plate pull rod slides in the second moving groove, it can make the tops of the first limiting block and the second limiting block protrude out of the upper surface of the partition plate.
[0006] In one embodiment, the housing is a cuboid, and the first and second movable slots are arranged in parallel.
[0007] In one embodiment, both the first through hole and the second through hole are vertically arranged.

The surface of the spring block is provided with a first limiting groove that matches the top of the first limiting block, and the lower surface of the spring block is provided with a second limiting groove that matches the top of the second limiting block. When the male mold pull rod slides in the first moving groove, it can compress the first limiting block, causing the bottom end of the first limiting block to protrude from the lower surface of the partition plate. When the spring block slides in the first moving groove, it can compress the second limiting block, causing the bottom end of the second limiting block to protrude from the lower surface of the partition plate. When the stripper plate pull rod slides in the second moving groove, it can compress the tops of the first and second limiting blocks to protrude from the upper surface of the partition plate. This application achieves the following through the cooperation of the male mold pull rod, spring block, first limiting block, second limiting block and stripper plate pull rod: when the mold is closed, the female mold plate and male mold plate close first, and then the stripper plate closes; when the mold is separated, the stripper plate opens first, and then the female mold plate and male mold plate separate.

[0023] To better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the following detailed description of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0024] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, this application provides an external mold opening and closing sequence control device, including a housing fixed on a female mold plate. The housing has a first moving groove 6 and a second moving groove 7. The opening of the first moving groove 6 is located at the left end of the housing, and the opening of the second moving groove 7 is located at the right end of the housing. An isolation plate 8 is disposed between the first moving groove 6 and the second moving groove 7. The first moving groove 6 is a blind hole. A spring block 3 is disposed in the bottom of the first moving groove 6, and an elastic element is disposed on the right side of the spring block 3. The right side of the elastic element is fixed to the housing. The spring block 3 and the male mold pull rod 1 fixedly connected to the male mold plate can slide within the first moving groove 6. The stripper plate pull rod 2 connected to the stripper plate of the female mold plate can slide within the second moving groove 7. A first through hole 801 is provided on the left side of the isolation plate 8, and a second through hole 802 is provided on the right side of the isolation plate 8. A first limiting block 4 is slidably disposed in the first through hole 801, and a second limiting block 5 is slidably disposed in the second through hole 802. Both the first limiting block 4 and the second limiting block 5 are elastic. The height of each block 5 is greater than the thickness of the partition plate 8. The lower surface of the male mold pull rod 1 is provided with a first limiting groove 101 that matches the top of the first limiting block 4. The lower surface of the spring block 3 is provided with a second limiting groove 301 that matches the top of the second limiting block 5. When the top of the first limiting block 4 extends into the first limiting groove 101, it can restrict the movement of the male mold pull rod 1. When the top of the second limiting block 5 extends into the second limiting groove 301, it can restrict the movement of the male mold pull rod 1. When the left ends of 2 are abutted, the movement of the stripper plate pull rod 2 can be restricted. When the male mold pull rod 1 slides in the first moving groove 6, it can compress the first limiting block 4 and make the bottom end of the first limiting block 4 protrude from the lower surface of the isolation plate. When the spring block 3 slides in the first moving groove 6, it can compress the second limiting block 5 and make the bottom end of the second limiting block 5 protrude from the lower surface of the isolation plate. When the stripper plate pull rod 2 slides in the second moving groove 7, it can compress the first limiting block 4 and the second limiting block 5 and make the top ends of the first limiting block 4 and the second limiting block 5 protrude from the upper surface of the isolation plate.
[0025] In this embodiment, the shell is a cuboid, the first moving groove 6 and the second moving groove 7 are arranged in parallel, the first through hole 801 and the second through hole 802 are both vertically arranged, the first limiting block 4 and the second limiting block 5 are elastic ball bearings, and the diameter of the first limiting block 4 and the second limiting block 5 is greater than the thickness of the partition plate 8. To prevent damage to the moving groove when the male mold tie rod 1, the spring block 3 and the stripper plate tie rod 2 slide in the groove, the ends of the male mold tie rod 1, the spring block 3 and the stripper plate tie rod 2 are all arc-shaped. The elastic element is a spring.
[0026] The working principle of the external mold opening and closing sequence control device in this embodiment is as follows:
[0027] like Figure 1As shown, when the female mold and male mold are in the fully closed state, the right end of the male mold pull rod 1 is in the first moving groove 6 and pushes the spring block 3 to the bottom of the first moving groove 6. The left end of the stripper plate pull rod 2 is located at the left end of the second moving groove 7. The first limiting block 4 is compressed by the stripper plate pull rod 2 between the first limiting groove 101, the first through hole 801 and the stripper plate pull rod 2 to restrict the movement of the male mold pull rod 1. The second limiting block 5 is compressed by the stripper plate pull rod 2 between the second limiting groove 301, the second through hole 802 and the stripper plate pull rod 2 to restrict the movement of the spring block 3. When the stripper plate pull rod 2 moves to the right, but the left end of the stripper plate pull rod 2 is still to the left of the first limiting block 4, the stripper plate is opened. However, the top of the first limiting block 4 is still in the first limiting groove 101. The limiting effect of the first limiting block 4 on the male mold pull rod 1 is not released. Therefore, the external mold opening and closing sequence control device in this embodiment can realize the stripper plate opening while maintaining the male mold plate and the female mold plate closed for one end for a period of time, so as to improve the demolding effect, reduce product deformation, improve production efficiency and protect the mold.
[0028] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, when the stripper plate pull rod 2 moves to the right until its left end is between the first limiting block 4 and the second limiting block 5, the stripper plate pull rod 2 no longer presses against the first limiting block 4. The elastic first limiting block 4 moves downward within the first through hole 801, and the top end of the first limiting block 4 disengages from the first limiting groove 101, releasing the limiting effect of the first limiting block 4 on the male mold pull rod 1. The male mold pull rod 1 can then move to the left to separate the male mold plate and the female mold plate. The stripper plate pull rod 2 moves to the right until the stripper plate pull rod 2... When the left end of rod 2 is located to the right of the second limiting block 5, the stripper plate pull rod 2 no longer pushes against the second limiting block 5 upwards. The elastic second limiting block 5 moves downwards within the second through hole 802. The top end of the second limiting block 5 disengages from the second limiting groove 301, releasing the limiting effect of the second limiting block 5 on the spring block 3. The spring block 3 moves to the left under the action of the elastic element. The spring block 3 pushes against the top end of the second limiting block 5. The bottom end of the second limiting block 5 protrudes from the lower surface of the isolation plate, thereby restricting the stripper plate pull rod 2 from moving to the left.
[0029] like Figure 4 As shown, when the female mold plate and the male mold plate need to close again, the male mold pull rod 1 moves to the right, causing the female mold plate and the male mold plate to begin closing. The male mold pull rod 1 moves to the right against the spring block 3. When the second limiting groove 301 has not moved above the second through hole 802, the bottom end of the second limiting block 5 still protrudes from the lower surface of the partition plate, and the stripper plate pull rod 2 still cannot move to the left. At this time, the female mold plate and the male mold plate close, but the stripper plate is not closed. Figure 5As shown, the male mold pull rod 1 moves to the right until the first limiting groove 101 is above the second through hole 802 and the second limiting groove 301 moves to the second through hole 802, thus releasing the male mold pull rod 1 from the first limiting block and the elastic block 3 from the second limiting block. The top of the first limiting block 4 slides to the first limiting groove 101 and the top of the second limiting block slides into the second limiting groove, thus releasing the second limiting block 5 from the stripper plate pull rod 2. The stripper plate pull rod 2 can move to the left, so that the stripper plate pull rod 2 can be reset after the female mold and the male mold are fully closed. That is, the female mold and the male mold are closed first, and then the stripper plate is allowed to close.
[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 the 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.
