Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive parts processing technology, specifically a plastic mold for automotive air conditioning vents. Background Technology

[0002] Automotive air conditioning vents are typically made of plastic and have specific designs and shapes. During the manufacturing process of automotive air conditioning vents, they need to be clamped and fixed, usually requiring the use of corresponding clamping plastic molds. A search revealed that Chinese patent publication number CN222245647U discloses a plastic mold for automotive air conditioning vents, including a lifting shell. A lifting rod is slidably connected to the inner wall of the lifting shell, and a support shell is fixedly connected to the top of the lifting rod. A first hydraulic press is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the support shell, a connecting plate is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the support shell, and a sliding frame is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting plate.

[0003] The above-mentioned technical solution, which uses a clamping plate to hold the mold, can prevent the mold from shaking during processing. However, in general, different sides of the car air conditioning vents need to be processed. The above-mentioned technical solution is inconvenient to adjust the direction and position of the car air conditioning vents, so it is necessary to manually remove and adjust them, which increases the workload. In addition, the length and width of the car air conditioning vents are often different, requiring different clamping lengths. The clamping plate in the above-mentioned technical solution has a fixed length, which is inconvenient to adjust, thus reducing its practicality. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a plastic mold for automotive air conditioning vents, solving the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution: a plastic mold for an automotive air conditioning vent, comprising a worktable, a first cylinder being embedded and fixedly installed on the top of the worktable, a rotating mechanism being fixedly connected to the top of the first cylinder, an adjustable clamping mechanism for clamping the automotive air conditioning vent being fixedly connected to one end of the rotating mechanism, and a pressing mechanism for pressing the automotive air conditioning vent being fixedly installed on one side of the top of the worktable.

[0006] The rotating mechanism includes a support plate fixedly connected to the top of the movable end of the first cylinder. A first motor is fixedly installed on one side of the top of the support plate. The output shaft of the first motor is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft. The adjustable clamping mechanism is fixedly installed at one end of the rotating shaft.

[0007] Preferably, the adjustable clamping mechanism includes a side plate fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft. Two sliding grooves are symmetrically opened on the outer surface of the side plate. A clamping plate is slidably connected inside the side plate. An elongated groove is opened on the outer surface of the clamping plate. A slider is slidably connected inside the elongated groove. The relative movement of the clamping plates can clamp the air vent of the car's air conditioning system.

[0008] Preferably, a second motor is fixedly installed on one side of the outer surface of the side plate, and a bidirectional lead screw is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the second motor. The bidirectional lead screw is internally threaded to the two sliders. The rotation of the second motor drives the bidirectional lead screw to rotate, and the two sliders can be moved relative to each other through the thread, thereby driving the two clamping plates to move relative to each other.

[0009] Preferably, a third motor is embedded and fixedly installed on one side of the outer surface of the side plate. The output shaft of the third motor is fixedly connected to a one-way lead screw. A movable plate is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the one-way lead screw. A T-slot is formed on the outer surface of the movable plate. A T-block is fixedly connected to one side of the clamping plate and slidably connected to the inner wall of the T-slot. The rotation of the third motor drives the one-way lead screw to rotate, which can drive the movable plate to move through the thread. Under the action of the T-slot and the T-block, the two clamping plates can be moved back and forth, which facilitates clamping of the car air conditioning vents in different situations.

[0010] Preferably, the clamping mechanism includes an L-shaped bracket fixedly connected to one side of the workbench surface. A second cylinder is fixedly connected to the top of the L-shaped bracket, and a buffer plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the movable end of the second cylinder.

In conjunction with the workbench, it can limit the vertical movement of the car air conditioning vent to prevent movement.

[0011] Preferably, the outer surfaces of the clamping plate and the pressure plate are bonded with rubber protective pads, which can protect the surface of the car air conditioning vent and prevent it from being damaged.

[0012] This utility model provides a plastic mold for automotive air conditioning vents. It has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] 1. A plastic mold for an automotive air conditioning vent, through a set rotating mechanism, the first motor rotates and drives the rotating shaft to rotate, which can drive the adjustable clamping mechanism to rotate, and can drive the automotive air conditioning vent to rotate, making it convenient to process different positions.

[0014] 2. This plastic mold for automotive air conditioning vents, through an adjustable clamping mechanism, can not only clamp the automotive air conditioning vents, but also, the rotation of a third motor drives a one-way lead screw to rotate, which in turn drives a moving plate to move through the thread.

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. 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.

[0020] Example 1, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a plastic mold for an automotive air conditioning vent includes a workbench 1. A first cylinder 2 is embedded and fixedly installed on the top of the workbench 1. A rotating mechanism 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the first cylinder 2. The rotating mechanism 3 includes a support plate 31 fixedly connected to the top of the movable end of the first cylinder 2. A first motor 32 is fixedly installed on one side of the top of the support plate 31. The output shaft of the first motor 32 is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft 33. An adjustable clamping mechanism 4 is fixedly installed at one end of the rotating shaft 33.

[0021] The operation of the first cylinder 2 can drive the rotating mechanism 3 and the adjustable clamping mechanism 4 to rise and fall, making it easy to change the height of the adjustable clamping mechanism 4. The rotation of the first motor 32 drives the rotating shaft 33 to rotate, which can drive the adjustable clamping mechanism 4 to rotate, and can drive the car air conditioning vent to rotate, making it convenient to process different positions.

[0022] Example 2, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, one end of the rotating mechanism 3 is fixedly connected to an adjustable clamping mechanism 4 for clamping the air vents of an automobile air conditioner. The adjustable clamping mechanism 4 includes a side plate 41 fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft 33. Two sliding grooves are symmetrically opened on the outer surface of the side plate 41. A clamping plate 42 is slidably connected inside the side plate 41. A long groove is opened on the outer surface of the clamping plate 42. A slider 43 is slidably connected inside the long groove. A second motor 44 is fixedly installed on one side of the outer surface of the side plate 41. A bidirectional lead screw 45 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the second motor 44. The bidirectional lead screw 45 is internally threadedly connected to the two sliders 43. A third motor 46 is embedded and fixedly installed on one side of the outer surface of the side plate 41. A unidirectional lead screw 47 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the third motor 46. A moving plate 48 is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the unidirectional lead screw 47. A T-slot is opened on the outer surface of the moving plate 48. A T-block 49 is fixedly connected to one side of the clamping plate 42 and slidably connected to the inner wall of the T-slot.

[0023] The second motor 44 rotates, driving the bidirectional lead screw 45 to rotate. Through the thread, it can drive the sliders 43 on both sides and the clamping plate 42 to move relative to each other, thus clamping the car's air conditioning vent. The third motor 46 rotates, driving the unidirectional lead screw 47 to rotate. Through the thread, it can drive the moving plate 48 to move. Under the action of the T-slot and T-block 49, it can drive the two clamping plates 42 to move back and forth, making it convenient to adjust the length of the clamping plates 42 according to the length of the car's air conditioning vent, thereby improving practicality.

[0024] Example 3, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a clamping mechanism 5 for clamping the air vents of an automobile air conditioner is fixedly installed on one side of the top of the workbench 1. The clamping mechanism 5 includes an L-shaped bracket 51 fixedly connected to one side of the upper surface of the workbench 1. A second cylinder 52 is fixedly connected to the top of the L-shaped bracket 51. A buffer plate 53 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the movable end of the second cylinder 52. A pressure plate 54 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the buffer plate 53. Rubber protective pads are adhered to the outer surfaces of both the clamping plate 42 and the pressure plate 54.

[0025] The operation of the second cylinder 52 can drive the buffer plate 53 and the pressure plate 54 to move downwards, which, together with the worktable 1, can press the upper and lower parts of the car air conditioning vents, improving the fixing effect of the car air conditioning vents.

[0026] Working Principle: The operation of the first cylinder 2 drives the rotating mechanism 3 and the adjustable clamping mechanism 4 to rise and fall, facilitating the adjustment of the height of the adjustable clamping mechanism 4. The rotation of the first motor 32 drives the rotating shaft 33 to rotate, which in turn drives the adjustable clamping mechanism 4 to rotate, thus rotating the car air conditioning vent for easy processing at different positions. The rotation of the second motor 44 drives the bidirectional lead screw 45 to rotate, which, through the thread, drives the sliders 43 and clamping plates 42 on both sides to move relative to each other, clamping the car air conditioning vent. The rotation of the third motor 46 drives the unidirectional lead screw 47 to rotate, which, through the thread, drives the moving plate 48 to move. Under the action of the T-slot and T-block 49, the two clamping plates 42 can move back and forth, facilitating the adjustment of the clamping plate 42 length according to the length of the car air conditioning vent, thereby improving practicality. The operation of the second cylinder 52 drives the buffer plate 53 and pressure plate 54 to move downward, which, together with the worktable 1, can press the car air conditioning vent vertically, improving the fixing effect of the car air conditioning vent.
