Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of product positioning technology, specifically a new product positioning mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of automobiles, sunroofs are becoming more and more diverse in type, size, and installation location, making traditional mold positioning mechanisms no longer suitable.

[0003] In the past, the installation components for small sunroofs were mostly rectangular sheet metal parts, and the sunroof size was also relatively small, with simple positioning mechanisms. Now, sunroofs are larger; taking panoramic sunroofs as an example, the installation components are no longer sheet metal parts, but rather screw posts. This places new demands on sunroof molds, requiring them to meet both the new positioning needs of the product and the cleanliness and durability requirements of the molds. Therefore, we have proposed a new product positioning mechanism. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the problems raised in the background art, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a novel product positioning mechanism, comprising a positioning cylinder, a horizontal cylinder, guide columns, a positioning plate, and an annular magnet. The horizontal cylinder has a positioning plate at its front end, and the positioning cylinder has a piston shaft connected to the mold body. Guide columns are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the positioning cylinder, and an annular magnet is provided at the top of each guide column. The guide columns are connected to the positioning plate through the cylinder.

[0005] Preferably, the positioning plate is provided with holes of different sizes, which are used to control the shoulder position of the guide post in different states, thereby realizing the function switching in different states.

[0006] Preferably, in the retracted state of the horizontal cylinder, the guide post shoulder passes through the large hole to clean the mold; in the extended state of the horizontal cylinder, the guide post shoulder engages with the small hole to achieve positioning.

[0007] Preferably, the annular magnet is used to adsorb mold waste, and the waste is cleaned by the retraction action of the horizontal cylinder. By retracting the horizontal cylinder, the annular magnet can carry the adsorbed waste away from the mold, thus completing the waste cleaning function.

[0008] Preferably, the positioning cylinder and the horizontal cylinder work together to achieve the switching function of the guide column in three different positions. Through the coordinated action of the positioning cylinder and the horizontal cylinder, the guide column can switch between three different positions, corresponding to the cleaning, positioning and production functions of the mold respectively.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0010] Cleaning state: Both the positioning cylinder and the horizontal cylinder retract, and the guide column shoulder passes through the large hole for easy mold cleaning; Positioning preparation state: The positioning cylinder extends, followed by the horizontal cylinder, and the guide column shoulder aligns with the small hole; Positioning state: The positioning cylinder retracts, the horizontal cylinder remains extended, and the guide column shoulder is locked in the small hole for precise positioning; Production state: Production operations are performed in the positioning state to ensure mold stability; Cleaning and cycle: After production is completed, the positioning cylinder extends, the horizontal cylinder retracts, the guide column shoulder disengages from the small hole, and the annular magnet cleans up waste material, preparing for the next cycle. This system satisfies both product positioning and mold cleaning requirements, and features a simple structure, smooth movement, easy cleaning, and no dead corners. Attached Figure Description

[0015] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0016] Depend on Figure 1-2 The present invention includes a positioning cylinder 1, a horizontal cylinder 2, a guide post 3, a positioning plate 4, and an annular magnet 5. The positioning plate 4 is provided at the front end of the horizontal cylinder 2. The positioning cylinder 1 has a piston shaft 6, which is connected to the mold body. The guide posts 3 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the positioning cylinder 1. The annular magnet 5 is provided at the top of the guide post 3. The guide post 3 passes through and is connected to the positioning plate 4.

[0017] The positioning plate 4 is provided with holes of different sizes, which are used to control the shoulder position of the guide post 3 in different states, thereby realizing the function switching in different states.

[0018] When the horizontal cylinder 2 is retracted, the shoulder of the guide post 3 passes through the large hole to clean the mold. When the horizontal cylinder 2 is extended, the shoulder of the guide post 3 is engaged in the small hole to achieve positioning.

[0019] The ring magnet 5 is used to adsorb mold waste, and the waste is cleaned by the retraction action of the horizontal cylinder 2. The ring magnet 5 can carry the adsorbed waste away from the mold by the retraction action of the horizontal cylinder 2, thus completing the waste cleaning function.

[0020] Positioning cylinder 1 and horizontal cylinder 2 work together to switch the guide column 3 between three different positions. Through the coordinated action of positioning cylinder 1 and horizontal cylinder 2, the guide column 3 can switch between three different positions, corresponding to the cleaning, positioning and production functions of the mold respectively.

[0021] Working Principle: In the initial state, both positioning cylinder 1 and horizontal cylinder 2 are retracted. With horizontal cylinder 2 retracted, the large hole on positioning plate 4 aligns with the shoulder of guide post 3, allowing the shoulder of guide post 3 to freely pass through the large hole on positioning plate 4. At this time, the mold is in an open state, facilitating the operator's cleaning of waste and debris inside the mold. The annular magnet 5, attached to the top of guide post 3, can attract metal shavings and other waste materials inside the mold, facilitating centralized cleaning and ensuring the mold is clean before production, preventing waste from affecting product quality and mold life. Positioning preparation state after cleaning: Positioning cylinder 1 extends first, followed by horizontal cylinder 2. As horizontal cylinder 2 extends, positioning plate 4 moves forward, and the shoulder of guide post 3 gradually approaches the small hole on positioning plate 4. The extension of horizontal cylinder 2 drives positioning plate 4 to move, ensuring the shoulder of guide post 3 accurately aligns with the small hole, preparing for the next positioning step. Through the coordinated action of the cylinders, guide post 3 is adjusted to the appropriate initial position. This provides conditions for subsequent positioning operations; Positioning state: Positioning cylinder 1 retracts, while horizontal cylinder 2 remains extended. During the retraction of positioning cylinder 1, the shoulder of guide post 3 is caught by the small hole on positioning plate 4. At this time, the shoulder of guide post 3 is firmly caught in the small hole, achieving precise positioning of the mold; Production state: Positioning cylinder 1 and horizontal cylinder 2 remain in the positioning state, that is, positioning cylinder 1 retracts and horizontal cylinder 2 extends. In the positioning state, the mold is firmly fixed in the correct position, and production operations can begin. The shoulder of guide post 3 is caught in the small hole, ensuring the stability of the mold throughout the production process; Cleaning and circulation: After production is completed, positioning cylinder 1 extends again, and then horizontal cylinder 2 retracts. As horizontal cylinder 2 retracts, positioning plate 4 moves backward, and the shoulder of guide post 3 disengages from the small hole of positioning plate 4, returning to the initial state. During the retraction of horizontal cylinder 2, the ring magnet 5 carries the adsorbed waste away from the mold, completing waste cleaning. At this point, the mold is cleaned again and ready to enter the next production cycle. It can meet both product positioning requirements and mold cleaning requirements. It also has a simple structure, smooth movement, is easy to clean, and has no dead corners.
