Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mold steel processing technology, and in particular to a mold steel grooving and cleaning mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Molds are crucial in industrial production, widely used in injection molding, blow molding, extrusion, die casting, forging, smelting, stamping, and many other fields. With continuous industrial development, the demand for molds is constantly increasing, and the requirements for mold precision, quality, and service life are becoming increasingly stringent. In the processing of mold steel, grooving is a common process operation used to achieve specific functions of the mold, such as installing cooling pipes or placing parts. However, grooving generates iron filings, residues, and other debris, which, if not cleaned promptly, can affect the subsequent processing and performance of the mold.

[0003] However, existing methods for cleaning the grooves of mold steel only allow for downward airflow from a single location (the top of the groove) to remove metal filings, residues, and other debris. The groove structure of mold steel is complex, with many corners, gaps, and dead zones. The lack of lateral oscillation cleaning, relying solely on a single-direction cleaning method, makes it difficult for cleaning tools or media to reach these areas. This results in the residue of metal filings, oil, dust, and other impurities, affecting the cleanliness of the mold. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a mold steel grooving and cleaning mechanism to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A mold steel grooving and cleaning mechanism includes an adsorption base, a cleaning lifting mechanism, a cleaning swing mechanism, and a comprehensive cleaning mechanism. The adsorption base has a placement groove and four pillars on its top. There are two cleaning lifting mechanisms symmetrically arranged on the four pillars. There are two cleaning swing mechanisms, each arranged on one of the two cleaning lifting mechanisms. The two ends of the comprehensive cleaning mechanism are located on the two cleaning swing mechanisms.

[0007] A further technical solution is that each of the cleaning lifting mechanisms includes a lifting plate, a horizontal moving slide, and two lifting hydraulic cylinders. The two lifting hydraulic cylinders are respectively installed in two support columns. The two ends of the lifting plate are horizontally connected to the telescopic ends of the two lifting hydraulic cylinders. The horizontal moving slide is installed on the top of the lifting plate, and a moving platform is provided on the moving end of the horizontal moving slide.

[0008] A further technical solution is provided, in which each of the cleaning swing mechanisms includes a swing motor, a support frame, a swing plate, a swing connecting rod, and a swing column. The support frame is located on the top of the moving platform, and a cylinder is provided on the top of the support frame. The top of the swing plate is rotatably connected to the cylinder. The swing motor is located on the moving platform, and a sliding groove is provided on the swing plate. One end of the swing connecting rod is connected to the main shaft of the swing motor, and the swing column is rotatably connected to the other end of the swing connecting rod. The swing column slides within the sliding groove.

[0009] A further technical solution is that the swing amplitude of the swing motors on the two cleaning swing mechanisms is consistent.

[0010] A further technical solution is provided, wherein the comprehensive cleaning mechanism includes a mounting frame, a drive motor, a drive screw, and a drive block. The two ends of the mounting frame are fixedly connected to the bottom of two swing plates. The drive screw is rotatably connected to the mounting frame. The drive motor is located on the mounting frame and is driven by the drive screw. The drive block is threadedly connected to the drive screw. The drive block is provided with a slider and is slidably connected to the mounting frame through two sliders.

[0011] In a further technical solution, a high-pressure air outlet is provided at the bottom of the drive block.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] This invention utilizes a swing motor to rotate a swing linkage, which in turn causes a swing column to move up and down within a groove in a swing plate. This movement, in turn, causes the swing plate to swing left and right on the cylinder. The left-right swinging of the swing plate causes the high-pressure air outlet to oscillate during trench cleaning. This left-right swinging cleaning allows cleaning tools or media to cover a wider area (such as corners, crevices, and dead angles). Traditional unidirectional cleaning may leave some hard-to-reach areas, but the left-right swinging effectively expands the cleaning coverage, reduces blind spots, and allows for the cleaning of larger trench areas in a shorter time. The left-right swinging cleaning process creates a "stirring" effect, making it easier for debris and impurities in the trench to detach from their attachment surfaces and be quickly carried out of the trench by the force generated by the swinging motion. Compared to static or unidirectional cleaning, this method more efficiently removes debris, saving cleaning time and improving overall cleaning efficiency.

[0014] Other features and advantages of this invention will be described in detail in the following detailed description section. Attached Figure Description

[0020] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0021] Please refer to Figure 1-4 As shown; This utility model provides a technical solution for a mold steel grooving and cleaning mechanism: A mold steel grooving and cleaning mechanism includes an adsorption base 1, a cleaning lifting mechanism 2, a cleaning swing mechanism 3, and a comprehensive cleaning mechanism 4. The adsorption base 1 is provided with a placement groove 11, and the top of the adsorption base 1 is provided with four pillars 12. There are two cleaning lifting mechanisms 2, which are symmetrically arranged on the four pillars 12. There are two cleaning swing mechanisms 3, which are respectively arranged on the two cleaning lifting mechanisms 2. The two ends of the comprehensive cleaning mechanism 4 are located on the two cleaning swing mechanisms 3.

[0022] The placement slot 11 can be used to place mold steel so that the position of the mold steel can be limited and fixed during the cleaning process.

[0023] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 2 As shown, each of the cleaning lifting mechanisms 2 includes a lifting plate 21, a horizontal moving slide 22, and two lifting hydraulic cylinders 23. The two lifting hydraulic cylinders 23 are respectively installed in the two support columns 12. The two ends of the lifting plate 21 are horizontally connected to the telescopic ends of the two lifting hydraulic cylinders 23. The horizontal moving slide 22 is installed on the top of the lifting plate 21, and a moving platform 24 is provided on the moving end of the horizontal moving slide 22.

[0024] When cleaning the grooves on the mold steel, the four lifting hydraulic cylinders 23 work synchronously, which drives the two lifting plates 21 to move upward, thereby causing the high-pressure air outlet 5 to move upward or downward. Depending on the thickness of the mold steel, the high-pressure air outlet 5 can be moved to the top of the groove for better cleaning. Meanwhile, the two horizontal moving slides 22 work synchronously, which drives the two moving platforms 24 to move horizontally, thereby causing the high-pressure air outlet 5 to move along the short side of the mold steel for comprehensive cleaning.

[0025] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 3 As shown, each of the cleaning swing mechanisms 3 includes a swing motor 31, a support frame 32, a swing plate 33, a swing connecting rod 34, and a swing column 35. The support frame 32 is located on the top of the moving platform 24, and a cylinder 36 is provided on the top of the support frame 32. The top of the swing plate 33 is rotatably connected to the cylinder 36. The swing motor 31 is located on the moving platform 24. A sliding groove 37 is provided on the swing plate 33. One end of the swing connecting rod 34 is connected to the main shaft of the swing motor 31, and the swing column 35 is rotatably connected to the other end of the swing connecting rod 34. The swing column 35 slides within the sliding groove 37.

[0026] The operation of the swing motor 31 drives the swing linkage 34 to rotate, which in turn causes the swing column 35 to move up and down within the groove 37 of the swing plate 33. This, in turn, causes the swing plate 33 to swing left and right on the cylinder 36. The left and right swing of the swing plate 33 causes the high-pressure air outlet 5 to swing left and right during the cleaning of the trench. This left and right swing cleaning allows the cleaning tools or media to cover a wider area. Traditional unidirectional cleaning may have some hard-to-reach areas, but by swinging left and right, the cleaning coverage can be effectively expanded, blind spots can be reduced, and a larger area of ​​the trench can be cleaned in a shorter time. During the left and right swing cleaning process, a "stirring" effect is generated, making it easier for debris and impurities in the trench to fall off the attached surface and be quickly carried out of the trench by the force generated by the swing. Compared with static or unidirectional cleaning, this method can remove debris more efficiently, thereby saving cleaning time and improving overall cleaning efficiency.

[0027] In this embodiment, the swing amplitudes of the swing motors 31 on the two cleaning swing mechanisms 3 are consistent. This ensures that the swing of the two ends of the drive frame remains consistent when driving the drive frame and the high-pressure air outlet 5 to swing.

[0028] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 4As shown, the comprehensive cleaning mechanism 4 includes a mounting frame 41, a drive motor 42, a drive screw 43, and a drive block 44. The two ends of the mounting frame 41 are fixedly connected to the bottom of two swing plates 33. The drive screw 43 is rotatably connected to the mounting frame 41. The drive motor 42 is located on the mounting frame 41 and is driven by the drive screw 43. The drive block 44 is threadedly connected to the drive screw 43. The drive block 44 is provided with a slider 45 and is slidably connected to the mounting frame 41 through two sliders 45. The bottom of the drive block 44 is provided with a high-pressure air outlet 5.

[0029] When cleaning the trench, the drive motor 42 drives the drive screw 43 to rotate on the mounting frame 41, which in turn drives the drive block 44 to move back and forth horizontally on the mounting frame 41 via two sliders 45. This causes the high-pressure air outlet 5 to move back and forth along the length of the mold steel to clean the trench. This ensures that every position from one end of the trench to the other receives the cleaning effect of high-pressure gas, avoiding blind spots that cannot be cleaned. For trenches with complex internal structures, such as those with bends, branches, or diameter changes, the reciprocating high-pressure air outlet 5 can allow the high-pressure gas to penetrate deeper into these complex areas through multiple passes and airflow at different angles, cleaning out the impurities hidden inside.

[0030] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.

Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
